《A Dryflame Child's Life (Rewriting)》Work and Troubles-2

''You can't,or to be more direct,i won't let you''Said Lord Arihan,which made me shocked
''Don't be suprised little Grim.Even though water is the best choice if you want to progress smoothly,it won't let you reach 2nd rank,let alone the peak.Of course,if you want to ascend then things will be more different.''He said.I know he is gonna explain it,but still why is he taking so long!I know he can read my mind,or can do something like that,so why is he this slow?
''I understand your confusion,but there are somethings you are not aware,and shouldn't be till you've grown.For your main element,we will go with Chaos.''Now,if what he said last was suprising,then this one was dumbfounding.Chaos!This is the foundation of all elements and first form of mana,which exists outside filling all lands.Before world stabilized and elements appeared,everyone used Chaos Power to gain strenght.
But it was way too hard,because it was very wild so it teared your body apart slowly and if you depleted it,it would take very long times to recover.After Elemental system came most of the people transformed their mana towards the element they were most suitable,with few exceptions like Dragons and Arachne whom were created by Chaos power itself.
But it was madness.Even though mana was way much more than the past times and he could recover his mana from sur-roun-dings...really!''Looks like you understand.Also,when you created your spirit weapon it also used the Chaos(Wild) mana from outside,which made his attirube also chaotic so it will be much more effective when you reach 7th rank.''
''And don't worry about hiding it,I'll give you some memories of mine for how to transform it to other elements,This can also help you when fighting.''Memories of him?I'm curious right now.From what i understand,he is older than even our family,maybe more older than some of the mid-gods.So they should be very valuable.
''Now,you know that every hour you spend outside is equivalent to 3 hours in here,so i will make you train in here too.It will decrease your training time while also you will learn runesmith.''Alright but-''When will i get rest then?''He just laughed and said''You won't''
...
''HELL YEAH!''Screamed 3 man at top of their longs.They were so exhausted and depleted they couldn't even feel if they were alive or dead.They could fall anytime if they were a bit off balance,but they didn't.It was definetly worth it.At their feet lay a half dead Ice Ape.They only lived at the peak of the mountains near Death Plains.Not only they were hard to find,killing was difficult too.Their body was harder than most of the metals so only mithril and above level weapons could damage them.

''Ron,Kill it already,I want to sleep.''Said one of the man and fell to the ground with a sound,lying with ragged breath.''Alright,let's finish it already''Said the other man and stabbed his lance towards the neck of Ape.Ape made a pitiful sound just before lance's tip pierced him and closed his eyes.But tip didn't pierce him.He opened his eyes and saw an elderly man with short full white hair.His eyes were little and he had a strange staff at his hand.At his back was a backpack like thing,emitting a strange smell,clearing his mind.
The other 3 were shocked,even if Ron didn't use his full power,even 2nd rank warriors wouldn't dare to stop it with their finger.This man was just holding the lance with his pinky,while ron's hand was shaking.With a sweep of his hand,he destroyed the lance of Ron and sent him flying.
''Who are you!''Said one of the two and directly leaped towards him.Elder man caught him in mid air and just slammed him to the ground.Man directly fainted,but he didn't have any injury.The other one couldn't move from the exhaustion sweeping over him,so elder man didn't touch him.But he also asked,''You old had,who are you?''
Elder turned around,patted the head of the Ice Ape.When he patted,his body slowly recovered and before 15 minutes,Ape's body was in full shape.Ape slowly stood up and looked at the Elder man with gratitude,and growled.''Oh,How kind of you.Let me accompany you for a while then.''He said and got on the shoulders of the Ape.Before they departed,he turned towards the young man and said:
''Sanzang''
...
''Alright then,you can go off now.By the way,why are you looking tired,did something happen?''Asked Big sis.Well i can't say i stayed whole night to train like a mad man so i just replied casually.''Not something big,just had to do something at night.''What i said sounds a bit suspicious but everyone should have some private space right?
''Alright then,don't tire yourself much or you won't be able to complete your quests''She said.I don't know but she really feels like a big sis.I already overheard from a conversation she was a dragon,but i don't know how old is she.She is surely not that old right?I mean most of the 1000-6000 years olf dragons are out there sleeping soundly or traveling around the continent.So it shouldn't be offensive when i call her big sis.
''Thanks for your concern Big sis,I'll take my leave.''I said and walked out of the guild.After i got out,i took the route towards the merchant district.I had to buy some things for runesmith,mainly for the part of smithing.It was not that far so i arrived in 5 minutes.I walked around a little and asked the things i wanted.I found plenty of them but every shop gave me another price and some of them were damaged goods.I don't like maths or any trading things,so i just let it be.I will look around once more when i complete the quests.

I got 2 quests this time around.One is about getting 4 wolf carcass.And the other is exploring an low leveled dungeon.I don't prefer both of them.I wanted to take one herb gathering but big sis just forced me and said like''You won't improve if you don't get any pressure''Well,i'm not fully convinced but i will still try.
After arriving the stables near city gate,i talk a bit with stablemaster then get my beloved horse from Realm gate,a average breed.Still,i have a strange bond with him so i won't change him for a while.With a shake,we got on our way.I think i will visit the same cave to find the wolfs.There were 6 of them so there shouldn't be problem with the first quest.Dungeon is a bit far away,so i will first go there and return the cave on my way back.
The wind feels refreshing and the green lands around me looks beatiful.There is not many trees,or rather to be precise,all of them are gathered at the mountain at the south west of the city,So there is mostly grass and flowers.Nevertheless it's a good scenery.Air is partly cloudy,so sun is not that disturbing.Roads are made from stone in cities,but other than that most of them are made from earth.
After 2 hours,i arrive the place.There is not that much grass,only some brown soil.Earth is shaking a little,which i don't know the reason of it.Dungeon is not underground,but it's made like a mansion.At it's front doors,there is 2 statues shape of frog.Doors have lip carvings on them.Probably an dungeon made by Charming Arachne Aragelon.I got near to the door slowly,while watching 2 statues.We had some of them in the house too so i know they can attack people.
...
''Another Human''Thought a floating head,inside a transparent cube.'Let's see your limits then'and with a thought from him,Doors of the Estate(dungeon) opened.The moment doors opened,2 frog statues eyes glowed and they leaped towards the Grim.
Grim directly took out an ordinary sword from his back,slashing it towards the 2 frogs.'What a pity,he lost at the first stage.'Thought Floating head,but he became shocked next second.Sword cut through the 2 frogs like a butter and with another slash,destroyed them completely.'What kind of a sword is that?No,if user is strong,then weapon is not that important'
Grim entered the house after 'killing' the 2 statues,and started to look around.In front of him was a stairs going up,one going down and one path directly going forward.When he was thinking,a sound reverberated ''3 paths,3 difficulty.Upper levels are the hardest,mid level is for normal.Underground is easiest.Pick your way,Young warrior''
Without thinking,grim took the stairs going up and followed it.''Good move,but you have to be capable.Let's see what you can do against a 7th level floor master''With another thought,he destroyed the stairs Grim came from.Grim was already far inside so he didn't hear it.
...
''Well then,what should i do with you three ?HUH?''Asked a big burly man.He was bald with white skin.His body had some densely packed muscles and he was 2 meters tall.''Boss forgive us,but we are sure he has tons of money!''Said laun and his 2 brothers,kneeling in fear.Their boss was clearly angry from something so he just wanted to vent it on them without hearing their reasoning.
''I Don't care about money!Only thing you have done was making me lose face you IDIOTS!''Man stomped his leg and whole house's tiles cracked.Laun and his brothers were now shaking from terror.Man turned his gaze towards the 3 shaking man and threw a kick at Laun.His head was directly sent flying while blood was flowing from his listless,headless body.
Other 2 was now terrified completely,begging while crying and screaming.The burly man got angrier and directly sent 2 punch towards their chest.Punch broke their whole bones while their innards were smashed.They died with big blood dents on their chest while vomiting blood.
''Take care of these idiots corpse''Said big man and left the house with 2 sidekicks of him.the other man just looked at the corpses and sighed,''I said you guys countless times''Then created a small flame,burning their corpses to the ash.Then with another spell,he sent them flying in the calm,partly cloudy sky.
'Now,lets see who this kid is.I have to punish him for making me lose face'Said the big man to himself,while walking towards the Adventurers Guild.

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).
