Capítulo 7: Peaceful time
Rhoam was left concerned, the boy he has come to see as his own child once again nearly died in a fight, he knows how smart that boy is, so he knows that the boy can tell how strong an enemy is in just a glance, yet he doesn't hesitate to act if it means saving someone…a hero no doubt, his future will be bright…if he lives to see it
Rhoam knows that his son Link looks up to Eric, wanting to be a hero too, a brave knight who protects the innocent, Rhoam found it funny, and he believed that once he told Eric, he would get an ego boost, but instead, Eric spoke as if a matter of fact that Link would be a great hero, almost as if…he knew that Link would match him, even surpass him
When Rhoam told Link what Eric's thoughts were, the boy looked solemn before a small smile emerged on his face, ever since then, he trained twice as hard, Rhoam could barely believe how disciplined his son became over night, but he was glad, said will shall make him into an outstanding knight, maybe even…a hero
…
…
Samus hung up and looked down, it has been a long time since she has seen him, but he hasn't changed at all, alone he won't survive, his insane charges and seemingly uncaring attitude towards his own life worries the young girl, she knows what she must do, just like that day, her will reaffirmed itself
-Was he ok Samus?
The Chozo asked, worried too about the young man that defied and changed their prophecy about her parents, that boy who can change the future, will shine even brighter with Samus by his side
-Yes, he is ok…teacher
-Yes Samus?
-Please increase my training
-Are you sure? You will barely have enough time to rest or play
-Eric needs me, the sooner I am ready, the sooner I can go back to him…someone has to keep him alive and protected from himself
The Chozo laughed, despite her not knowing it, it is clear she has feelings for the boy, as of now, they are innocent, but in the future, perhaps together they might be able to prevent the calamity that they have had nightmares about…perhaps it is time to prepare an extra suit besides the one for Samus…
The Chozo put those thoughts aside and nodded towards Samus, this young girl will be one of the most skilled warriors in the future, of that they are certain
…
…
When I woke up, I was by myself, the healers likely already did their job but I still casted Heal on myself, my skin should be mostly restored…[Monica?]
"95% master, give it one more day so it is fully recovered"
[I am so glad my body is so resilient…]
"As a Reincarnator, your soul is very resilient, same applies to the evil ones though"
[So don't stop until I am certain they are dead then?]
"Exactly"
[Got it]
I checked my bonds too to see where I was standing with everyone
"Hero of Hyrule Link"
"105 (Brother)"
"Reincarnation of the Goddess Hylia: Zelda"
"95 (Hero from fairy tales)"
"Deadly ninja of the Sheikah clan: Impa"
"95 (Valiant Hero)"
"King Rhoam Bosphoramus Hyrule"
"95 (Like a Son)"
"Queen Hilda Rhodenheimes"
"95 (Heroic Son that must be protected)"
"Intergalactic Bounty Hunter: Samus Aran"
"130 (Fire of hope)"
"Valiant Officer of the Federation's military Rodney Aran"
"95 (Hero who saved us)"
"Kindhearted mother of the heroine, Virginia Aran"
"95 (Valiant boy who saved us)"
"Silent Soldier Leona Heidern"
"165 (Hope of her life)"
"Future Priestess of the Yata clan Chizuru Kagura"
"150 (Crazy Boy who saved us)"
"Current Priestess of the Yata Clan, Maki Kagura"
"160 (Hero who saved my life)"
"Vicious space pirate leader Ridley"
"-100 (Sworn enemy)"
"Heavenly king of the Orochi Hakkesshu Goenitz"
"-120 (Massive threat to our plan)"
[Huh, why does Gaidel not have one of these?]
"I have deemed it unnecessary, Gaidel will not be someone you will interact with much, if the situation changes, I shall add him"
[That's quite cold]
"The list will only get bigger, can't add everyone"
[…Fine, I trust your judgement Monica]
I got up and left the room, the doctors told me to please return to my room and wait a little longer so they can properly discharge me, I didn't fight it, I went back to my room and began practicing magic again, the usual way I train is simply by casting weak spells over and over using my mana and depleting it before resting and allowing it to recover
I made a small flame appear in my hand, then a ball of water, then a small tornado, then a lighting bolt, followed by an earth ball, then a ball of light and one of darkness, I cycle through them while I wait for the doc
After a while, the doc arrived and he told me that my wounds should be well enough to let me go today thanks to the healing magic, all marks should be gone…except one
-Eh?
-You used Endure didn't you boy?
-Yeah, otherwise I would have died
-Endure leaves behind a mark of the attack that killed you, that scar cannot be easily removed by us, sorry boy, but you might have to carry that scar for the rest of your life
-…It's fine
-Someone so young shouldn't have such scars
-It doesn't matter, let it be a reminder
-Reminder?
-The price I paid for being weak
-…What a lad
-Thanks for the help doc
-It's my job, try not to come back too soon ok?
-I'll try!
The doctor went to call someone to pick me up and before long, Chizuru had arrived on her bike
-I see you are on your feet again Eric
-Yup, thanks to the doc and you guys I am like new!
-I am glad, here
She threw me a helmet that I immediately put on
-Hop on
I got on her bike and as the engine roared to life she said
-Hold on!
I hugged her waist and the bike rushed out
It's not my first time riding a bike, I rode one on my previous life rather often since I wanted to get a license for it, honestly the wind crashing against me was addicting
Before long we arrived back at the clan, I saw the usual scene of Maki teaching Leona how to fight with their style, she was a natural, it shouldn't take much longer before she masters it, if possible, I also want her to learn from Heidern but…it is becoming more and more unlikely since he wouldn't teach a random child that is not his adopted daughter
"Not completely master"
[You have an idea?]
"Her style will come to her, this will merely compliment her, so it is for the best"
[How?]
"Erizabeth has a lot of sway, all she needs to do is present her with dreams and she will have Anamnesis"
[Will that be ok?]
"It will"
[…Ok, I trust Erizabeth]
We stayed for an extra week before I decided it was time to leave
As we had lunch, made by me of course, they wanted the cooks to handle our meals but Leona actually threw a tantrum since they weren't as good as I was so the twins had to swallow their pride and allow me to cook
As we were enjoying, I spoke up
-Aight, we have stayed here long enough, Leona, should we go back tomorrow?
-Eh? You are leaving?
-Yeah, I still have sword lessons to go back to Maki, I already taught your musicians the Song of Healing, they should be able to contain the energy of Orochi
-…It will get lonely without you
-…I know, but I have to return, my training is not yet complete, in order to take down Orochi, I have to do this
-…
-Don't look so down you 2! I will come visit, I promise!
-! Ok!
That cheered both up, Leona also seemed a bit sad since she did befriend the twins too, however, upon telling them they could also come to visit any day, she also cheered up
So the day was spent saying goodbye, the whole clan liked us a lot after the time we spent there and they adored me since I saved their priestess and stopped Goenitz plan, so they were sad to see me go
Regardless, I have to go back, I am also missing Link, Zelda and Impa, I wonder if aunt Hilda was able to replicate the song as I taught her, I have had to go often after all to play it
If Zelda couldn't sleep well this whole month then, man, poor her
As tomorrow arrived, the twins got a driver and delivered us themselves to our building, I informed the Hyrules so they were outside to meet us, and we were received with hugs, especially me from Zelda and Impa, judging by their eyes and Hilda's apologetic face it seems like it didn't quite work…I checked my ocarina by the way, it ain't magical! It's a regular ass ocarina! Hilda can also use magic like I can so there should be no reason for it not to work!
Anyways, after introductions, the twins left and we headed home
…
It has been a few months since then, things have been quiet luckily, I started working with Leona to get her used to going out on her own or remain alone for a bit, since we won't be able to be together 24/7 in the future (Unless we become a couple and even then it might be hard) I got her a copy of the keys and passed on her some crucial knowledge to live alone
She of course freaked out thinking I was going to abandon her, I had to explain to her that all this was for her since if anything happened to me, she could continue on her own, she didn't like that answer at all so it took me a few extra days to convince her, though after those exercises, she stuck to me like glue, even in my sword training, much to Link's amusement
Ah, yeah, I also play the Lullaby each night to Zelda and Impa, they indeed had troubles sleeping, even if Hilda can play it, apparently it isn't the same, so I have to do it myself…not sure what the issue is
Many things happened during these months, but no real fight, perhaps I'll tell you later though
Regardless, after these months, we all are officially 10, so we will start middle school, apparently skipping elementary is normal for kids here, I ain't complaining, Leona also wanted to join us since she didn't want to be alone and luckily the price was affordable, despite the Hyrules insistence on paying for us, this was a matter of pride for me
I just kept the pattern day after day enjoying myself, calling Samus, visiting the Kagura clan or being visited by them, playing with Zelda, Impa and Link, training with him and Rhoam, sometimes cooking for everyone, it was a very fulfilling time, and now, the results of my training before entering school
"Eric"
"Rank: C-"
"Age: 10"
"Strength: C-"
"Agility: C-"
"Magic: D+"
"Endurance: B-"
"Charisma: B+"
"Luck: F-"
"Perception: B"
I think Luck is seriously throwing down my evaluation…but seeing how often I have nearly been killed, I think it makes sense
Back to school, I bought all necessities for me and Leona, fortunately they don't need a uniform so we can dress freely, I also am not very worried about the subjects there since I graduated Middle school a while back and if it's about history, Monica will bail me out
"The smarter you are on their eyes will root out the unpleasant ones and get the important kids to approach you"
Being seen as a nerd won't matter since in P.E. I will shock them, unless it's a legend, I don't believe any kid could match me and my friends
Also, as I researched, we also have some selective classes, so I picked music with near no doubt, the rest decided to join me too, well, at least they said they would, I know that the Hyrule siblings will have musical talent but…will Leona too?
Well, guess I will find out there
