Chapter 54: I'll Be Back
Compared to Chris's delay in regaining his free body, his cousin James's life is much more comfortable.
Now, he is walking with his wife, children, and Amelia through the wooded hills, to the Forest of Whispers, where elves have lived since ancient times.
Amelia is about to turn ten years old, and it's time to train as a warrior within the clan.
At the age of ten, the elves will say goodbye to their childhood and be trained in order to welcome the rite of passage at the age of twelve.
Because in the Elven tradition, when all clansmen reach the age of twelve, they will receive the blessing of the Blood Moon Altar and officially become a warrior. The origin of this tradition is that in the war between the elves and the Vulcan Cult, adult soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and in order to maintain the needs of the war, all children over the age of twelve went to the battlefield.
Although the war between elves and humans has disappeared today, the tradition has been preserved.
In order to remember history, but also to let the clansmen always remember that they will die if they forget the war.
The people who traveled with him, as well as the middle-aged man with a paralyzed face.
As James's personal guard and concubine, Jessica didn't follow, she just gave birth to a daughter.
Calculating the time, it should have been conceived when she was in the Great Wilderness.
James's twin sons will be four years old after the spring, and the descendants of the Einske family at this age will also begin to prepare for the plan to practice martial arts. After all, every big family with a long heritage, behind the glamorous surface there are unknown efforts and dedication.
The eldest son's name is Midialo and he has green hair.
Inheriting his wife's bloodline a little more, with slightly pointed ears, it is a model of elven blood compulsion.
So Raphael, the helmsman of the Einsk family, decided to let the elves teach Midialor, and stayed in the elven territory until he was twelve years old, held a coming-of-age ceremony, and then returned to Edin City.
Midialor, to put it bluntly, is an elven with the surname Einsk.
He is the bridge between the Einsk family and the elves.
In the future, after the death of the human demigods, if the Einsk family needs the elves to participate in the war, then Midialor will appear in the elven army; And the elves will also benefit more from the Einske family through him.
This is his innate mission, a mission that he will never let go of throughout his life.
The youngest son's name is Antonio, bright red hair, and he is a standard Einsk.
He will accompany his brother in the Whispering Forest for two or three years, and then be brought back to Edin City by the ice-faced middle-aged man who teaches him martial arts.
As for the reason why he is allowed to travel on the road, it is because he is too young, and the absence of his parents and brother will affect his growth and mentality.
Yes, James is going to start traveling.
His grandfather, Raphael, finally let him fly—to find an opportunity to break through the shackles and become a strong man.
This is also the reason why he could not teach his son personally.
After settling his wife and children, he will travel through the Whispering Forest to the south of the sunshine farther south.
There are giants, dragons, all kinds of powerful beasts, and countless moments of wandering between life and death, which can give him the opportunity to break through the shackles and become a strong man.
In the past, human beings wanted to walk through the whispering forest, which was tantamount to a fool's dream.
Unless all the elves are dead.
But with the Einske family forming an alliance with the elves, James wanted to travel through it without much effort.
When you reach the border of the elven territory, there are almost no people on the road.
The caravans that travel back and forth all year round do not seem to depart in early winter, which saves James and his party a lot of trouble.
In the territory controlled by Einsk, James, as the heir, is so recognizable that everyone who sees him will come to be polite.
Before entering the Whispering Forest, the road becomes either uphill or downhill, a constant cycle of bumps back and forth. This made the two little boys sitting in the carriage very stuffy, and they were at the age of being active.
The red-haired ones were in their mother's arms, and the green-haired ones were on their father's legs, playing with each other, occasionally pulling their mother's hair and occasionally pulling their father's beard.
This was their last childhood.
It may be that it is a parting relationship, James also sat in the carriage, and there was no cynical ruffian on his face.
Amelia was also in the carriage.
She sat beside her sister Anastasia, her small body next to her.
When she was young, she didn't have a mother, and she was very dependent on this much older sister, as if she was dependent on her mother.
And since she was born, Anastasita has never left her, even if she is married thousands of miles away, she does not forget to take her with her.
Compared to the first time Chris saw her, she has grown a lot taller now, and she is more than 1.4 meters.
If this trend continues, it may take a few years to become a slender and graceful beautiful girl.
The eccentric heavens have given endless grace to the elves, and both men and women are very beautiful.
"It's boring, father, shall we go horseback riding?"
It was Antonio who spoke.
Before his words could land, the twin brother immediately clapped his hands and echoed, "Okay, okay, go horseback riding!" Go horseback riding! ”
"Okay, let's go horseback riding."
At this time, their father would not refuse any request.
The cool breeze that lifted the hair, the greenery that slid through the eyes, and the birdsong that swept through the ears diluted the sorrow of the adults.
James and his party rode three horses on the hills, and the two children were held in their arms, shouting and screaming excitedly, and their innocence bloomed into the smiles on the lips of the adults.
Immediately enter the Whispering Forest, and the team with the presence of the elves will not be attacked.
What's more, they are not soft persimmons that anyone can pinch.
As for the very huge luxury carriage that was left far behind, there was a middle-aged man with a frozen face as a coachman, and it is estimated that no one would be stupid enough to rob a strong man.
There was a hint of concern on James' smiling face.
Not only for parting, but also for the news that Raphael told him.
The archbishop of the Einsk family, another Vulcan archbishop, has a gifted offspring, who is only twenty-five years old but is already a half-step strongman.
Everyone felt that he would be strong before the age of thirty.
This kind of news originally had no effect on the Einske family.
It's nothing more than one more strong man, and the Einsk family is not without descendants who are about to become strong, and they will not be able to control the overall situation in the future war between the two families. For example, except for Raphael and Lange, no one knew that James was already a half-step powerhouse at the age of twenty-three!
Except for Avril back then, James is the most talented person in the entire Einske family!
The reason why he didn't make a noise was just because he learned the lesson of Avril Muxiu Yulin back then.
And James has not been allowed to try to break through the shackles and become a strong man, because Raphael wants him to lay a solid foundation, so that it will be easier to awaken his real name in the future.
However, when Hosaku sent back news of another archbishop's family, Raphael felt that it was urgent to let James chase the path of the strong.
The hostile family has already made the descendant of the twenty-five-year-old half-step powerhouse start to try to break through the shackles!
Because they want to proclaim it as the "son of the god of fire" after they become strong!
Just as Raphael had already set out to package the talented Avril as the "Holy Maiden" of Vulcan, the purpose was to win the support of the followers, and to break away from the Holy Empire and dominate the south after the fall of human demigods in the future.
In other words, after killing the hope of the Einske family, the rival family actually reproduces the "hope" in the same way!
Raphael couldn't hold back any longer.
also immediately made the decision to let James travel far away to find a breakthrough from the shackles.
Indeed, in the history of the Vulcan Cult, there has never been a person who became a strong man before the age of thirty; But there is no strong person who awakens to his real name in his early thirties!
The reason why a strong person is strong comes from the power of his real name.
Raphael felt that since James was already thirty years old and could not defeat the rival family in terms of the age advantage of becoming a strong man, then create a historical moment of awakening the youngest age of his true name!
Let all the families and cultists in the south know who the "son of the fire god" is!
The galloping horses stopped in front of a wood, this was the Forest of Whispers, and the patrolling elves had come out to greet them.
Their eldest princess has been married for a few years, and her appearance has not been forgotten.
But they were signaled to stop, and the two little boys, who could not stop for a moment, were chasing a beautiful butterfly, their faces full of novelty and joy.
Their mother didn't want to disturb her innocent and splendid childlike innocence because of the arrival of strangers.
Anyway, the carriage of the middle-aged man with the frozen face will take a while to arrive, and he can't enter the Whispering Forest smoothly alone.
James stood aside, his eyes chasing his son's figure, but his eyes were thinking about the distance.
Heading to the South of the Sunshine, can I come back?
He asked himself in silence.
A faint scent hit, and his hand was held by a hand that was as bright as jade.
It was the hand of his wife, Anastasia.
Her empathetic smile, like a spring breeze, makes the flowers of the whole world bloom; Her long eyelashes, full of love, are like green shoots returning to the earth in spring, blooming with hope for the revival of all things.
He smiled too, his face beaming with happiness and raising his eyebrows in the sun.
I will be back.
He told himself in a wordlessness.
