Chapter 112: The next goal



"Your sense of humor sometimes scares me," Roan said.

Leiah felt like sighing since it looked like she was surrounded by muscle heads. In any case, Rain looked fine, and she was fine with that. Last week, she received the news that Rain fought some monsters that started to invade the territory, and while she heard that he was fine, she didn't believe it completely.

In a situation like that, people tend to ignore or decrease the value of life for the sake of the grand picture.

The girls showed up in the middle of the morning, so things got a bit lively after that. As usual, Dana was the one who was most happy about his return… it was a pity that he would have to leave tonight. Since Rain brought some books for the girls to learn magic, the others also opened a bit.

In the end, while Rain was exhausted, he took turns playing with them and teaching them some magic at the same time.

"I thought that a battle to death would change him, but I am glad that it didn't happen," Roan said while he was watching his kids playing.

"We never had time to talk about this, but he helped you on the night of the invasion and killed some enemies… things got so busy afterward, so…" Leiah said and then sighed. "Did you think that he would change after all this?"

"It isn't uncommon for that to happen… "When some people realize that they have a lot of power over other people's lives, they tend to change to become more conscious of their power or get drunk on it," Roan explained. "It is also rather common for them to waste away their talents thanks to that by thinking that they can do anything without putting effort."

"Of all things we could say about Rain, arrogant and negligent are the least things that agreed with him," Leiah said.

"Haha, I know, right?" Roan asked.

Roan thought that being addicted to hard work would make more sense for Rain. He wished that he could behave more like a child of his age, but at least Roan knew that his future would be better while he built his foundation during his youth.

Regardless, Roan felt a bit bothered when Rain made the ankle weights for him.

At first, he thought that Rain was messing around, but soon he confirmed that Rain's weight was also weighted that much… Although he was only eight years old, Roan could tell that the foundation of his son's body was good, and he probably could cause him some serious trouble in a serious fight… Roan thought that Rain got lucky against the enemies, and his report made it look like that, but maybe that wasn't the case.

"I guess he will overshadow me in no time," Roan said while smiling. "Wait, I need to keep training hard to save some face… can't let my kid surpass me when he isn't even ten years old."

Maybe he wasn't skilled to surpass him in a battle of speed at close range. Still, Roan knew that Rain could escape him at any moment with his movement speed technique… actually, he could escape from 95 percent of the warriors of the realm.

Thanks to that, Roan felt like sparring with Rain, but he could tell that he was exhausted… He couldn't do more than that when he came to the village to spend a day with his family.

Although Rain was truly tired, spending that day with his family sure improved his mood. Once he returned to the capital and rested for the night, he was sure that he would be in tip-top condition. In the end, he had dinner with his family and then left, promising that he would be back in a few weeks once again, no matter what.

The whole trip lasted for exactly four days… it wasn't half bad, but Rain wanted more. At that point in time, it was clear that he wanted to move as fast as an airplane. In any case, Rain immediately went to talk with Karla about the changes, but she welcomed him back and told him that nothing changed, but everyone was on guard.

"I guess the enemies won't make a move now since they know that we are ready for them," Rain said.

"You don't look like you rested that much in the last few days, so take your time picking easier jobs for a while," Karla said.

"Thanks, will do," Rain said and then returned to his room.

For a moment, Rain wondered if he should ask about Jori's group, but he was bound to meet them eventually. For the next few weeks, nothing major actually happened. Rain heard that the number of spies and scouts being deployed increased, but that didn't change a thing.

No news was found… while nothing changed, people still were wondering if those guys were actually working or if they were a waste of resources.

Still, Rain had some good news of his own. Thanks to the trip back home and to the capital. He leveled up the Healer's Path a lot. While he didn't do anything aside from the usual, it seemed that the constant focus and control that he put in while using his mana made his skills improve considerably.

To the point that it was about to reach level fifty, and he was truly looking forward to a new path to be unlocked.
