The Traitor: Relic War
Chp. 24 Some Sad Story From That Little Boy II

Daylight / Nipotia Kingdom

Zen was leaning in front of a tree so dense that he and Daven were now in the wild forest of the Royal Capital of Nipotia and were preparing for magic training.

"Alright Daven... Now I'm gonna ask you... Do you remember your promise last night..." He asked casually as Daven stood not far in front of him.

"of course... I promise I won't use this power for anything wrong and will protect my sister..." Answer Daven confidently with a burning determination in his eyes.

"Good, now listen to my explanation carefully... First I'll explain your magic type... Dimensional eaters, Creators of voidness... Or you could call it Void. is a magic that has a formation type... That is, before you cast your magic, you must form magic first... And once it's formed, you can just implant all sorts of slingshots into it..."

"So Zen brother what should I do to form my magic..." Ask enthusiastically Daven.

"First close your eyes and feel what is flowing in you..." The instructions from Zen were immediately put into practice by Daven where he closed his eyes and began to feel the flow of mana in his body.

"After you've managed to sense where you are... Next is to control the flow... Control the flow where you go to the palm and imagine a magic formation..."

"Well" replied Daven, who was very full of concentration, he raised his palm and began to drain his mana there.

Svush...

Zen smiled happily as a transparent Black sphere appeared in Daven's palm which when he opened his eyes, the pleasure within him overflowed.

"Successful... I succeeded brother Zen..."

"Good job... You've done a good job..." Praise Zen who then straightened his body.

"Then what should I do with this?" Daven asked who was looking at the transparent black bole in his hand.

"For now try to release the Black ball into the tree and see what happens..." Zen's orders pointed to the edge.

"Good!" Daven moved his palm then immediately released the transparent Black sphere towards the tree Zen pointed at.

The Black Ball flew towards the tree very quickly then touched it just a little bit, and when the thin skin of the Black sphere touched the surface of the tree, it touched the surface, The Black Ball was seen sucking into the tree it touched and in an instant the tree it touched disappeared without a trace along with the transparent Black ball earlier.

Zen was silent, even when he knew it was going to happen, but no matter what happened so great that he was shocked, much less Daven who seemed to not believe in his own magic.

"I did that... Is that really my magic power..." His words are glazed.

"Well... That's your magic... And I think that's crazy..." Zen Reply.

"Sister Zen... Thank ye... Thanks to my sister I managed to find out what my magic was like... And I didn't expect it to be this great... Thank you, Zen... It must be the destiny of the Lord we can meet..." Daven repeatedly bowed his head to Zen in thanks.

"Destiny from God... Yaks... I think it has a point a little" Zen replied in a soft voice.

"Don't just settle for that Daven... You can still grow again... Next is the planting of the rawhide..."

"Report planting... What does that mean..." Ask Daven in wonder.

"It's like this..." Zen moved back a little bit away from Daven.

"My magic is a shadow... And you see the shadow that's under your feet..."

"Well..."

"Now I'm going to implant a patch into the shadow that's under your feet... [Shadow Magic: Confinement Of Being]" Rapal Zen took out a few shadow hands from under Daven's feet and instantly locked his movements.

"That's one of the rapes I have... You can also instill slingshots in your magic at will... Whether you want to make the Black ball shrink, enlarge, swallow things, or something else..." Clearly Zen again then unleashed his magic from Daven.

"Great... But how do I implant a phalanx?"

"Easy, just after the formation you just have to imagine your magic form... And pour it in a spell that will later be the key to her magic summoning..."

"I understand it..."

"Prepare because after this we will do more difficult exercises..."

Afternoon...

Time passed very quickly and was not realized by Zen and Daven who practiced magic together before.

Zen was still in the starting position where he was leaning against a tree and Daven was lying on the ground with a breath of gasping breath and seemed quite heavy, where he lay while staring at the sky which is now starting to be tinged.

"Let's take a break before we get back... Since you've been trying so hard, I'll buy you dinner..." Zen speech that runs through Daven.

"Can we buy for my sister too?"

"Of course you're a fool... Come on!" Take Zen who started walking towards the forest.

"Good!" Daven who looked excitedly stood up from where he was lying down then went after Zen who was in front.

"If you may know where Zen's coming from.." Daven asked in the middle of their journey back.

"I come from an ordinary place... Nothing is special... Why do you want to know?" Zen replied, Keep looking ahead.

"none... I was just wondering where someone as great as Zen's brother came from..."

"so... But you know I'm not great... Some of my friends might be better than me, and maybe to them I'm just a water flea..."

"Despite that Zen's still great for me..."

Zen glanced sideways at Daven whose eyes looked so happy.

"My dream... Forming Hare-"

Platyakk!!

The raw tell landed right on Daven's head just before he finished with his sentence, and beside him Zen with a piercingly cold gaze looked at him.

"Just throw away your stupid dreams and die..." Zen's cold words are now ready with a second series.

"Just kidding... It's a joke why Zen took it seriously... It hurts" Daven grimaced holding his head that felt hot.

"Don't joke when I seriously ask..."

"All right..."

"So... What are your dreams..." Zen again walked followed by Daven at the back of connecting their conversation.

"A few moments ago I had no dreams and would only live with the flow... But after meeting Zen I started thinking for a better life in the future, somehow I felt so confident in my strength that I could do anything now, I will give my sister a good life and also protect people... Because I'll take that as my gratitude to God..." Daven said with a little touch.

"Why are you so obedient?..."

"When my mother was a child, she told me that God would always protect those who remembered her... That's why I taught my sister to always pray to God. And so that my remaining family is always protected by God then I never Stop praying to her..."

"Owh... It seems your mother was a good person..."

"Well, he's really nice..."

The conversation continued to flow along with their steps closer to the city, and after they stopped talking for a moment and began to look for food to eat, many options are available and Daven chooses an awful lot of food because Zen will pay for it.

After a while of food shopping the two walked back to Daven's tent, It was already night and the atmosphere of the city as usual where in the center was very crowded and quiet for the suburbs.

"Didn't you buy too much..." Zen's dry face was seen when he saw the package in Daven's hand and it was very much.

"I was confused about which one I would choose... It was Zen who paid... Hehe" Daven's small laugh as he walked faster, impatient to give the food to his younger brother.

"At least remember that I'm not a moneymaker..."

"Sorry sorry..."

The two walked straight inside the alley for a while and finally reached the end of the alley.

"Dina, Dino, Dion's brother came home and saw what sister baaaaa....."

Buk...

The package in Daven's hand just fell to the ground as Daven watched what was in front of his eyes.

His messy little tent with a few red stains in various places, frantically Daven and Zen ran in to make sure that what they were thinking was wrong.

"What... That happened..." Zen's speech watched the bodies of the three people who were piled with blood splattered where.

"Dina, Dino, Dion... What's... This... Heyy get up" Daven fell to his knees near the bodies of the three immobile children.

"Daven..."

"Heyy, wakeup! brother brought you food..." Daven moved the body of one of his younger siblings and did not care about the red stains that were stuck in his palm.

"Daven stop... They're gone..." Zen said holding Daven's shoulder.

"No brother Zen, they fell asleep, I had to wake them up for dinner... Hey get up or your brother's gonna eat it all..." With a sad voice that sounded sad enough Daven continued to move the body of his sister who did not respond to the call from him at all.

"Why... Why don't you wake up, don't you want to eat with your brother anymore... Wake up.... AWAKE!!!" Daven screamed hysterically while hitting the floor.

"Who did this..." Ask Zen.

"Why... Why would... Why does God not protect them... They are good people who always remember God... Why, God, you're not protecting them... Because we are poor... Answer me God!!!!" Tears flowed from Daven's eyes and fell on the bodies of his three siblings who were no longer alive.

"Stop Daven..."

"Sister Zen... Why is this happening... What should I do..." Daven turned to look at Zen who was standing behind him.

"You have to let your sister go..."

"My sister... They're gone, before I can even give them happiness..."

"I'm sure the time they spend with you is a happy time... So for now as her brother you have to give them a good rest... I'll help you..." Zen's suggestion patted Daven's shoulder gently.

"Well, you're right Zen... There's no point crying over this... I will avenge their deaths... In exchange for not being able to protect them, I'll take out the man who killed my sister..." Daven's eyelids shrunk along with his voice filled with vengeance.

"Really... From now on you will live in darkness... And from now on... Stop praying to God, because from the beginning there was no God... Never again pray to God in this world... And avenge your brother's death..."

"If you remember, God does not exist... They never once answered my prayer... I was wrong to believe him... Brother Zen, from now on I will live with the aim of killing those who killed my sister,

As well as...

Those who believe in God..."
