Chapitre 5: The picture and determination
The massive wings of the eagle soared gracefully through the sky, the wind rushing past Leo's face as he clung tightly to Mira. The landscape below unfurled like a patchwork quilt—fields of green and brown, winding rivers, and clusters of trees, but all Leo could focus on was the dark, heavy weight in his chest.
As they flew higher, Leo's gaze was fixed ahead, his heart racing with a mix of hope and dread. And then, just as they began to circle back toward the clearing where his mansion once stood, he saw it: the ruins of his home, a mere shadow of what it had been.
"Mira! There it is!" he shouted, pointing excitedly, but the joy was quickly snuffed out by the reality of the devastation below.
After landing gracefully on the soft earth near the rubble, Leo dismounted the eagle, feeling an overwhelming pull to search through the remnants of his past. The air was thick with dust, and the scent of decay hung heavy around him. Ignoring the ache in his heart, he knelt beside the crumbling walls, digging through the debris with desperate hands.
Each piece of rubble he tossed aside felt like a weight lifted, but with every shift, the grim reality of his situation settled deeper into his bones.
Mira watched from a distance, sensing the urgency and pain in Leo's movements but She stood silently, watching the boy who had already lost so much, and o
As Leo clawed through the twisted beams and shattered bricks, his fingers brushed against something smooth and cold. He pulled it free from the rubble, and his breath caught in his throat.
It was a small, framed photograph, covered in dirt but still intact. He wiped away the grime, revealing a picture of his mother, father, and him, their smiles bright and full of love.
For a moment, time stood still. Leo felt the warmth of their happiness envelop him, but that warmth was soon replaced with a crushing sense of loss. He clutched the picture tightly to his chest, tears welling up in his eyes as he whispered, "I will find you. I promise."
Mira, sensing the shift in Leo's energy, approached quietly. She saw the photograph and recognized its significance.
He turned to her, his eyes filled with unshed tears. "They're gone, Mira. If they were here. They would have come for me!"
Mira knelt beside him
Leotracing the outlines of the faces in the photograph. "i will find out what happened to them," he said, with determination despite his childish face it looked like he will accomplish what he said
"Yes," Mira agreed "but Leo the world you know is far from what the real world is ....you have to train and gain strength in order to find out what happened to them because I see traces of ki and mana here "
Leo took a deep breath clenched his first and said " i will do whatever is within my reach to find my parents"
As he stood up, he held the photograph tightly in one hand, a symbol of hope and a reminder of what he was fighting for. "Let's go back to the hut everything will be eventually be revealed
Together, they returned to the eagle, Leo's heart a mix of sadness and determination as they took to the skies once more.
Has Leo and Mira came back to hut he got down immediately and went inside the house and placed the picture on the table
Staring at the photo the boy felt grief and pain within tears were about fall of his eyes but stopped them wiped them and with a determined face he was prepared to face whatever was about come
Mira seeing this placed her hand on his head and said "don't worry you are not alone i will help you"
"Mm" responded but this time he did not cry he knew crying would not solve everything
"I will train you " said Mira "You have to become strong first "
"Let's start your training right away"
Has she said this she held leo's collar and dragged him outside within in a flash leo couldn't process what just happened he stared blankly before coming back and realised what has happened but before he could ask any question she threw a wooden staff at him "try and see if you are comfortable with this staff"
Leo swung the staff here and there mira stood there observing him she could see some flaw but for a 5 year old to Swinging a staff in such a way was already considered genius Mira out of curiosity asked " have you ever trained with staff?"
"No my mom wouldn't let train since I am too young but I see my father's knights and gaurds train in spear,swords, Archery,war hammers and such"
Mira was shocked beyond words she saw her fare share of geniuses around the world none could ever wield a weapon and use it like this on their first try
'maybe not sure but maybe this kid can achieve what we were trying to do for a thousand years but he needs to be trained for it ' Mira was lost in her thoughts
"Mira" called out leo Mira snaped out of her thoughts "should I call you Mira or master "
Mira smiled and said " call me master when training and address me as Mira when we are not training"
"Ok Master"
"Alright then shall we look how you do with other weapons aswell"
