บท 45: Secret behind the Paintings [Part-2] & Time Leap
Stefan watched as the blood fell in the bowl and sprang up from the bowl while mixing and changing its color, sometimes to red, then to blue and finally to purple.
"You are the descendent of an ancient clan. Even if you don't tell me about your previous life, I know that this is your second life and you died an unjust death. But all this suffering is for your current future."
"What do you mean?", Stefan asked, dumbfounded.
The voice felt suspicious after hearing Stefan's tone, and a blurry phantom appeared behind him.
Just as Stefan thought, the voice had left, he felt a warm current in his head and then the voice answered, "So that's how it is. You have lost the memory of your death."
Stefan, although shocked, did not feel any malice from the voice. So, he gradually let go of his guard and honestly agreed that he really did not have any memory of his death.
The voice sighed and told him, that he will be able to meet him soon.
Before disappearing, the voice guided Stefan and told him the correct answer to the paintings.
Just as Stefan thought everything was over, the voice told him another shocking news.
''Child, actually the little guy you saved is your biological brother. I could not reach out to you because of the restrictions this world has imposed on me.''
''Really?'', Stefan had tears in his eyes, but he felt extremely happy from the bottom of his heart. In just two days, he has grown so attached to Li, that he refused to imagine how he would feel when Li's parents take him away.
Now he can rest assured that no one will be able to take Li away from him.
.....
Two years later....
''Li, where are you going to?'', Stefan shouted from the kitchen, holding a spatula in his hand, after hearing the sound, of the door being opened.
Aouli answered, ''I am going to meet Brother William and Brother Ethan''.
''Then come back before three p.m. You still need to practice the Wind Rotating Blade'', Stefan, reminded him.
''Okay Big Brother!!'', Aouli shouted and ran away quickly after closing the door.
Stefan shook his head helplessly and, while cooking, suddenly thought of the day he met that mysterious voice.
Now that he thought about it, since that day, everything in his life has gradually got back on track.
That day, when he exited the mysterious place and came back to the cave, he guessed something about the paintings. But the guess was so absurd that he did not want to live with expectations that might not be true.
After arranging all the paintings, he got a transparent cloak that could be used to hide his aura. It was such a rare treasure that even Heli couldn't stop admiring it again and again.
When the time for the appointment came, he went with William and Ethan to defeat the tree demon. It's just they don't know the reason for its abnormality, but he knew that better than anyone.
It was because, it was him, due to which the tree became like this. He only got to know it after three months of its extermination.
The change of the tree demon was caused by his blood. His blood is so powerful, because his blood bears the power of both a swordsman and a magician.
In fact, when he escaped from the underground hole, the tree demon probably couldn't care less about him a
It's just that since that moment, he avoids getting hurt as much as possible. Three different types of power clash in its body and the power of the demon is getting was increasing as time passed by.
The tree demon has gained a shred of consciousness, and knows that it cannot handle the clash of powers because the body will decline, every time it tries to use the power.
Stefan also got to know the reason, he easily got those herbs. The reason was because the tree had already killed the guardian of herbs, in order to get advantages to be promoted. It seems it knew the role of the herb.
Even Stefan couldn't guess why it knew the properties. But after eliminating all the guesses, there is only one possibility left, and it is that this thing might be hereditary.
Despite all this, they were able to gain heavy rewards after exterminating the tree demon. One more good news was that, he didn't know what went wrong, but he slept for a whole week and then regained the memory of his previous life. He was upset for a long time and only, after a long time, did he regain his previous vitality.
Heli was shocked and hurriedly checked if the return of memory could cause sequelae. Fortunately, luck was on Stefan's side and no side effects remained.
.....
Stefan's appearance did not change much in these years. The only thing that changed was his hair color. Earlier his hair was silver in color, but now when you see him, you will realize that hair has become a mixture of silver and blue color, same as the hair color of Aouli.
Now, he is a level-3 magician, and can easily cast healing spells. He doesn't have to worry about exhausting his Mana while treating someone. Whereas, through constant practice, now he only needed half the mana to heal a deeply injured person like Esha.
He also relies less and less on portions now. The reason is, that the more potions you consume, the more impurities will block your meridians. Although it may give you quick success, it blocks a person from advancing to higher levels.
As for the quests, he completed it smoothly after coming out from the mysterious cave.
This also increased his favorability and reputation in the town. Now there is hardly anyone, who doesn't know him and Li in this town.
After that, he did not receive any quests from the system for a long time, but when he asked Heli about it, he only told him vaguely to be prepared for the tasks anytime.
At that time, Stefan decided to let nature take its course.
