BXBX NOVEL Chapter 213 213 Forest
"So the awakening is still in process, what does the awakening do?"
"You would be able to use my powers, well half of my powers because you are not a demon, but you have a demon residing in your body"
"When would the awakening be complete?" Ray asked.
"In some day\'s time" Kaan spoke with a sly voice.
"Why are you spacing out...is something wrong?" Selena questioned.
"No..."
"Then try again, one more time then we\'ll leave"
Ray took a deep breath before throwing the spear, now he knew that he would be teleported to the spear so he was prepared, the spear traveled towards the hole in the ceiling and when the spear went through the ceiling Ray was teleported.
Ray still wasn\'t used to the teleportation and since he wasn\'t the one controlling the skill, his timing was a little off.
The spear had already passed through the ceiling so as Ray teleported he quickly used the spear to strike the side of the walls so he could hold on without falling again and he succeeded.
\'Phew...that was a little scary\' Ray mumbled under his breath.
\'It\'s only scary at the beginning, you have to learn how to use it properly, so you can use it in battle\' Kaan spoke in Ray\'s head.
\'It\'s really strange that you are helping me, what do you get out of helping me?\' Ray questioned.
\'Nothing...I already told you now that if you die, I would die with you so I want you to get stronger\' Kaan replied.
\'And the more you continue to use my powers the more my Mana sips out and joins with yours, that lady mage doesn\'t know what demons are capable of doing\' Kaan spoke to himself.
Kaan was able to hear Ray\'s thoughts because he was in Ray\'s subconscious mind and both of them were linked when Ray is holding the spear, he was able to hear Ray\'s thoughts only when Ray is holding the spear, but Ray isn\'t able to hear Kaan\'s thought.
"I did it" Ray shouted as he looked down at Selena.
Dark wings appeared in her back and she flew towards the ceiling, Selena looked down as she felt the Mana in the cave crumbling, the spell she used to stop the beast from finding their location had been broken.
"...Times up we need to go now," Selena said as she entered the path, instead of walking like she did before she reduced the size of her wings so they can fit in the tunnel and she flew at top speed.
Ray couldn\'t keep up with her speed so he asked Kaan to teleport him, every few seconds he throws the spear forward and teleport to the spear\'s location.
Both of them exited the dungeon quickly before any of the beasts in the dungeon could reach them, the forest was covered in darkness but they weren\'t surprised because they was no way to tell the time they spent down in the dungeon.
The forest was different at night as Ray looked around, it was peaceful mainly because Ray could see his surrounding, if he couldn\'t he would be weary because of the different sounds that echoed in the forest.
The wind slipped through leaves, cracking undergrowth with each step, creaking tree trunks, the flutter of wings unseen, snapping twigs, grass, and weed sliding against pant legs, breathing sounds, and wolves howling.
The forest was truly different at night, Ray could see different smaller animals and insects moving around and it reminded him of his world where everything was normal.
Ray was now too focused that he totally forgot about his world and his plans to return back, he was becoming too accustomed to this world and all its possibilities.
The mud that covered the entrance of the tunnel had dried up. They had defeated the mage that was responsible for controlling the mud.
Ray and Selena quickly walked toward the location where their horse was kept.
"Would the horse still be alive? We tied it on a tree, if there was an attack it wouldn\'t be able to run away" Ray said.
"Except it was attacked by wolves, most beasts don\'t attack themselves unless they are fighting over food or territory" Selena explained to Ray and he nodded his head as they continued.
\'So my hands are back to normal or even more than normal, the blood spear is really something else, I can\'t believe it belonged to a demon\'
\'And I don\'t trust Kaan, all these years he was planning for the day he would use me as his escape route, and all of a sudden after he\'s sealed he becomes friendly, I know he\'s trying to do something and I won\'t let him\' Ray mumbled as they walked towards the horse.
\'Now that my hands are back to normal I would focus on learning magic, I can\'t keep using the same spells over and over again, I have to learn something powerful, something capable of being called a trump card\'
The forest was dark but both of them could see clearly, after a while they reached where the horse was tied.
"Give me a minute" Selena spoke as Ray proceeded to untie the horse.
\'What\'s she doing, a spell...\' Ray wondered as he watched Selena.
Selena\'s clone exhausted all its Mana when summoning her so the clone was gone and Selena had to make another clone.
"Let\'s go...I can\'t stress my body anymore" Selena mumbled.
"What do you mean?" Ray asked.
"I need a day at most to create a powerful clone like the type I sent here with you"
"Ohh...so you are going to the academy with me...no one would notice, you look exactly like the clone"
"I know... let\'s leave it\'s already late," Selena said and Ray quickly obeyed.
Both of them climbed on the horse and Selena waited for Ray to start moving but Ray was also waiting for Selena to tell the horse what to do.
"What are you waiting for?" Selena asked him.
