Arriving at the forest entrance, Elijah could see his father with others of his family, the three instructors from the Royal Academy and ...

"Little Brother, look out!"

He only felt something hitting him as he fell on the ground. Still feeling a bit dizzy, he look up and saw who had hit him

"Layla?" And he fainted.

...

Elijah's view

Opening my eyes, I saw my father looking at me. thinking about how I fainted, and that a few hours must have passed.

Afraid that the treasure hunt was over, I ask.

"Father, the treasure hunt aready begin?"

"No, there still a few minutes. Also we decided that only when you make fourteen years we'II anounce your engagement with Layla but until there you two are not engaged and if she fall in love with someone or she din't want to marry you, then the agreement will be annulled. If you are better now , then get up and go to the entrance."

I get up, go down the stairs and leave.

...

Elijah was with a few childs from his family.

When his grandfather anunced.

"As everyone knows, today is our family competition we do every year, in the forest we had some potions and artifacts. The one who more find the most treasures or find the more expensive treasures will win.

Just remember not not go deep in the forest, and you all have three hours, now go!"

All the children started to run into the forest.

...

In two hours, Elijah only found a pouch of gold coins, a mirror and dagger and decided to go deeper when he sudely heard a shout.

"AHH!"

Feling something was wrong, he activate the second level Void Steps.

[Void Steps] is devided in three levels, the first is speed, the second is silence, and the third is void.

after activating the second level, he could run without making noise. aprouching where the shout came from he saw Chloe running away from seven wolves.

Remembering the scroll that his father had given him. He took out the Spatial Scroll, opened it and the scroll send purple light rays locking the wolves.

Seeing his plan had worked, he took her hand and used his Void Steps, leaving the wolves behind.

on top of a tree,Elijah was holding onto Chloe who was short of breath as he asked.

"Chloe, are you alright? what happened with you?"

"I saw you were exploring this side and i come after you, I didn't thought wolves would attack me."

Elijah looked around, but he could not see anything familiar in this part of the forest. The Branches florest was little but it was conected to the great wilderness and there lived numerous tribes and magical creatures.

He closed his eyes and tried to contact Shadow. 'Master, can you hear me? Master?' I can't contact Master, our conection has been broken.

"Chloe, I think we're lost, let's get down from the tree and try to find our way back."

He jumped from the tree carrying Chloe and they walked in the florest searching the way back.

...

Five hours later on the forest entrance.

The treasure hunt ended but there is still a few people waiting at the entrance with worried expresions.

Catherine looked into her husband eyes and asked while crying. "Dear, it's aready dark and i don't see our chil, you don't think that he..."

Henry pated her hair saying. "Don't think about this, our son is strong, I know he's fine."

...

After they found a safe area in the forest.

Elijah looked arround and said. "this place is safe, let's camp here."

It was aready dark so they need to camp.

Elijah gather the wood and set up a bonfire, while Chloe was searching for water and something they could eat.

"Ell! come here!" hearding Chloe he walked beside her, and he saw a ancient entrance with several runes inscribed on the wall

"It seems to be the entrance of a ancient crypt!" Elijah said.

'How this is possible we aready passed here, and there was nothing before.'

"Lets go have a look," Chloe suggested as she strode towards that entrance. althout she liked to being with Elijah and she always considered him as a brother, but this time it she cound't stop feeling nervous and every time she thought of this her heart will beat wildly so she's trying to divert her thoughts.

Elijah followed behind her felling she was acting a bit strange.

"Ell, look this place must have been a street!" Chloe pointed at the ground and said. she couldn't make out the size of the street since it has already collapsed and covered by earth and grass.

"Chloe, you don't think this is strange? like how no one in our family noticed this before?" Elijah feels something suspicious on this place.

Then entering the crypt, the first thing they saw was a huge stone tablet and two passages behind.

Elijah brushed off the dust on the surface, and he infused his void energy on his eyes making them shine with a silver light illuminating everthing arround like a torch, and makind the words on stone visible.

"Wow! I never knew you could do that." Chloe was amazed to see that his eyes were like lamps.

"We do not have time now, I can not understand these inscriptions, and you?"

Chloe eyes lit up as she remenbered something. "I remberer seeing those on a book before, wait." the shearched on her things and took out a book."Now let's see."

[Being betrayed by the gods and losing everthing i had fought for.

I swore that one day.

The heavens will fall before my feet!

The stars will shatter before my eyes!

All creation will temble at the sound of my voice!

And maybe at this day i will discover the truth.]
