《Jack at World of Syntaria》Chapter 7 : Traveling to Denoso City
Advertisement
The carriage horse is double the speed and endurance with a normal horse I spent 15 Silver to be able to join their journey. The owner of the carriage will not take care of me, so he's no worry about me or my sleeping place
I only got a single bag, 4 set of clothes, frying pan, spatula, one short sword, I have 1 small bottle of honey, a small bag of salt, sugar, oil herb seasoning my mother want me to bring more but I make many reasons not to...
In the carriage, there’s a 4 demi-human, 3 humans, 2 female demi human elf around 17yrs old green clothes with a black cape and one dwarf with orange hair. Two male one is also elf which is like traveling with female elf but they’re not talking to each other and one look like goat horn then 3 human the old man as a driver, then another who looks like adventurer act as a guard of this carriage and me.
The routine of our travel is
5 am: breakfast preparing to depart
6 am: start of carriage
11 am: lunch then
12 pm: continue of the journey until
6pm-7pm: looking for good spot to set a camp,
After one day in the carriage I got bored, I thought it will be finished quickly but not I still have 59 days to go because it takes 2 months to reach the school which I can test for scholarship in Syntaria Central Academy.
The second day, in the morning, while in the carriage I try to sense the place with my Mana sense, everyone thinks I'm just sleeping, except for the two elves who's looking at me...
Around 9:30 am I stop it then after 10am I jump from the carriage everyone ink I'm crazy at first but I start to run on the side of the carriage , well the carriage is fast I'm trying to hold my breath to caught up I even focus my Mana in my feet which make me feel lighter until the carriage stop for lunch I sit in the corner of large rock after 10 min I check my Mana 20% left, using Mana sense I only spent 250 in 3 hours continuously four 3 meters around me which the scope of carriage size,

I start to hunt rabbit, after 10minutes while barbequing it I try to clean up my sweat, everyone done eating after one hour 12 pm we continue our journey in carriage there's I eat, then sleep for 1 hour start Mana sense then after 1 hour recover again the around 5:30 I jump FROM the carriage again then run, this time I start with Mana on my feet.
After a week...
"Skill Learned: Body Enhancement Skill lvl1" Body Enhancement Skill: Enhance whole body or a certain part of the body by 5%, each Level increase by 5%, for keeping my Mana on my feet and after another week one night I try to absorb the Mana in the air but its seem like just before it just enters my body they go out like it does not belong there....
'I thought I can use it to recover my lost Mana'
I remember on my first try Mana sense I see this small dot in the air, then manipulate it until it shapes like a ball then disperse...
While thinking the same logic I try to use the Mana in to surround my feet , then jump a few times, I check my Mana after casting body enhancement to my feet it deduct 180 then after 30 minute , it not spend another Mana to me, I start my suspicion but I already tired so I stop experimentation then sleep.
In morning because I awake almost 5 I don't have time to prepare food in the carriage the elf girl with cape given bread then I say 'thanks' but she already snob me again.
I start Mana sense and gather the Mana surround to join in my Mana sense but it failed I guess I can sense my surrounding using my body own Mana which makes sense.
After 1 hour jump to carriage around 7am, everyone's look at me because this two weeks I always jump around 1 hour before the lunch but now it’s too early, I start to enhance my feet cover of Mana then manipulate the Mana in my surrounding to my feet after 9 am I almost spend only 100mana, so I continue, I even kill 3 rabbits on my way, we found other traveler but as always in opposite direction so there's not much interaction

Then at lunch I got little sweat, start to cook friend rabbit using some oil, salt and herb seasonings
"Hi I’m Jack 12 years old, thanks for the bread" I look at her and smile then "if you don't mind you can get one as thanks, if I don't have breakfast my mother might not get sleep well today she always have a good intuition when it comes to me.." I feel like speaking in the air, the two elves only look at me, until I bite the rabbit meat I'm not looking at them, but they looking at me to be more accurate the looking the juiciness of the meat
Gulp!
The elf girl swallowed saliva then said "I'm Vena" get the fried rabbit then starting to eat. Then I also give the elf man name Rio, when Rio tell me his name Vena laugh silently I'm not sure or it just my imagination.
The dwarf girl named Wanda then the adventure human which act as a guard named Glen and the driver Julio. Well, I try to tell my age, hoping I learned what her age is but failed.
My identification show simple information on an object its show name and little description, target only show “???” if you don't know some yet, only race name is clear or the information when you heard it.
After another week continuing my practice routine
"Skill Learned: Nature Mana Manipulation lvl1"
On the other day morning, I see Vena the giving me bread again then turn around. In lunch, I give her barbeque rabbit,
I know she’s waiting for it, both elves not even prepared for their launch.
Glen and Julio became friendlier, I learned to them our route is one of the safest here, because it’s a common way from many village away from kingdom who's taking a test for scholarship and the tell me that exam start on the 7th day of 5th month, so I should have a week to prepared, I thanks for the information, and I ask why I never see monster beast which I only heard from my mother but never see, and they tell me that almost every day there's someone using this route so monster beasts already eliminated and any stronger beast spotted will be reported to nearest adventurers to take a proper action, most of the time adventurer take action before sending a report to the guild with their proof, unless it’s too strong for them to handle.
After 1 month and 3 weeks, Nature Mana and Mana manipulation change into Mana Control lvl1 just like perseverance for mental resistance and physical endurance
After 2 months I already see the big city, there's a circle wall then 3 gates thee from the north east-west, south wall have a big castle connected to it.
We directly go to the west gate and theirs a line of peoples entering the city, there’s so many demi-human lining up but what really get my attention is the human-like 7,2 height muscular holding a big axe, I feel like the axe is more than 100kg it’s like a giant dwarves in my imagination with a horned helmet. He entered directly without lining up, just wave to some guard.
After lining up for 1 hour, Julio talk to the guard and be some identifications card, and they start to check our baggage after long, then we directly enter for some inn,
Vena, Rio, and Wanda said goodbye to me they didn't stay at the inn.
I rent a regular room for 2 days it cost me 5 Silver, for 2 silver 30copper per day, with breakfast bread and soup, every day, and I ask for some map of the city because I'm not familiar with it.
The innkeeper gives me the key then after I take a bath I leave the inn.
