Rial, Mary and Aishai:
Ten weeks has passed since we made our way to the forest. And, since then I haven't heard a single word form any of my classmates. maybe, due to the unfortunate circumstances of the special tasks improvised by the educational system. Eigi, Max, l kakashi, Rio and Lee all had written letters to me. In fact, they send them every month.
Eva, Aishia and I finally crossed the boarder, which successfully made is "country outcast" meaning we are on an unnamed country.
"I wonder where we should go?" Eva asked.
"We should head north, I see an inn over there." Replied Aishia.
"We should sleep. I am going to practice for a while then I will join you guys. Is that good."
"Okay good work."
"Good night big-brother."

Practice arena:
I grabbed my sword and began swinging it sideways. Moving it to the left, I threw it in the air, then adjusted my body. Using my momentum I swiftly grabbed it with my right hand, which was the opposite hand of which I threw.
My weapon is a sword based on the design but if you really take a good look at it. You will soon realise that it is more of a katana than an actual sword. I designed it purposefully, because I wanted to have a fancy weapon when I was a child. I never thought I would still have it even when I am 14 now.
"7 whole years huh!" I murmured to myself.
During my journey with the people I am with, I managed to create my own new sword styles. The Karasuki style water dance and the Ryou flow air style.
Unlike Rio and Max who perform their already mastered styles. I build my own and perfect it.
Rio uses the kenjutsu style: jodan, chudan and gedan. Meanwhile, Max uses the Moon style fire dome and sword arts thousand blade slice. All these arts are made to protect oneself and when mastered, you almost feel invisible.
The karasuki style water dance:
First form: the mana in someone is passed through a sword. And when it makes an impact on someone it blows out of the person causing internal damage.
Second form: someone's mana is manipulated to create water. The water becomes invisible and forms a dragon form which makes a strong impact.
Third form: your charkra is drawn out, and when swung sideways it releases a slicing impact in your surroundings.
Fourth form: this style focuses on blocking your enemies attacks through mana sensing.
Fifth form: like the fourth style, it focuses on blocking but this style does both attacking and blocking your enemies attacks.
Sixth form: this form involves creating water around the sword, then using your magic essence. You consume your enemies own mana while you focus using the fifth style.
Final form: this form involves creating a large water dragon to cover yourself, using it offensively and defensively.
Moving forward I know how hard the journey would be. But I have prepared for the worst outcome.

Journey to the west:
The morning sun arose. During that moment I told everyone that we were leaving the house today. Later collected everyone's bags and stored them inside a time-space dimension. Glancing at the horizon I noticed that today would be very sunny. "Can they run in such extremes?" I asked myself.
We all went outside, where I stored back my parent house into the time-space dimension. We started moving at an unusual speed. Aishia and I were moving at speeds Mary couldn't match. Wanting to reassure her, Aishia prompted me to lower our speed to match her.
In fact, we were moving at 'MFTS' but due to Mary's young body and weak stamina we had to take frequent breaks and stops.
We stopped once in the forest. Cutting some branches, I managed to make a fire to prepare food. I boiled some rice under the hot temperature. I later blinded pepper and tomatoes. We ate it as fast as possible and continued on with our journey, within a few hours we had completely crossed through the forest.
Monsters appear during the journey too. But using my newly learnt sword art, I managed to kill most of them. Aishia using her rolling sword also managed to finish off half of them. Mary used her magic to burn those who came at her. They were regular monsters and goblins. Making them extremely easy to kill.
Because Aishia shared my memories, she also has the ability to use the sword techniques I created. Using her mana she created water astral art over her sword, and upon making contact with the goblins, their mana was completely drained out. That was the sixth form of the technique.
We continue running through the kingdoms. The Empire of Nights, the Sea kingdom and Sahara dessert. With our speed crossing those places were easy but still really tough. During most of the trip, I had to carry Mary since she fell asleep or if I like I just store her in the time-space.
And upon the vast distance we finally managed to reach the "Demi-humans forest" or in other words "the spirit village".
I was tired so I told everyone that "We are going to camp this time. The house is too big to be placed here. Without a doubt, it would disturbed the nearby villagers."
"I sense people but at the same time they don't seem like regular people just people with super human features." Aishia said.
"I sense them too." Replied Eva.
"They are here right... If they come then we would explain the situation we are in right now."
"Sure!" Responded Aishia.
Grabbing the camp stands. I placed the woods necessary for placing the net on. Afterwards, I placed the tent on the wood and tacked them in. Using astral art, I levelled the floor to make it smooth and easy to sleep on. I moved out my blanket and moved it over to myself. Then after minutes the light went out of me, I managed to fall asleep.
During the night, Aishia heard some noise in the forest and immediately woke me up announcing that we might be in danger.
"Man! I am way too sleepy to fight again.
"We have no choice and Mary is asleep so she won't be a burden for us." She said.
From the shadows. Four girls walked out, they had disdain all over their faces. They weren't entirely human only half. One was a dwarf, the other was an elf like Mary, the other was a ware-beast girl and the last girl was a half human half horse girl.
Moving closely they asked "Who are you?"
"We come in peace. My name is Rial Karasuki from the Asteroid kingdom." I said to them.
"What is your business here lowly human?" The horse girl asked in a sarcastic tone.
"I came here to ask you something. But it seems it will be very hard to communicate with such an attitude."
Moving even more closely the elf girl said "I sense one of my kind in that tent over there. It seems she has been put to sleep with astral arts."
"Huh! You lying cheater scumbag!" The horse girl, overly angry dashed towards me with incredible speed.
Using my sword, I blocked her from using her spear on me. Ducking down, I changed the hand of which I was holding the sword. From right to the left, then I used the third form combined with fourth form dodging accuracy. I slid past every attack she attempted.
"Aishia!" I screamed out.
The elf girl and the wear-beast girl used some kind of sleeping artifact to put both Aishia and Mary to sleep.
The dwarf using the confusion held her fist, which she struck me with. The punch caused my internal organs to shake. She was extremely powerful in terms of physical power. The elf girl created multiple magic circles around her. And with each threw, she managed to hit me. Because of the heavy blow I dealt with earlier this caused me to lose my speed and agility.
"I refuse to go out like this!"
Forcing my dragon mark to awaken once more, I threw lightning bolts everywhere in hopes that it might distract them further. But the elf girl caught up with it faster than I predicted. Using her magic circles she managed to absorb the lightning bolts and flew up in the sky.
"She can fly? How is that possible!" I asked myself.
The wear-beast girl took a float and began to sing a song. The melody and rhythm of the song was incredibly soothing. I mind without control lost it well to fight only obeying what the music wanted "to sleep." Looking at her I felt nothing not anger, nor sadness. I made up my mind that I would explain my situation to them, in fact I had no choice. Then, I fell asleep once more.
"Ahh! That took way too long than I expected!" Said the horse girl.
"He was strong! I mean really really strong... He even managed to withstand my song for a full two minutes before finally giving in."
"Yes. Even after Alma punched him he still continued on fighting with us. And... The mark that appeared on his arms... What do you think that was about?" The elf girl asked.
The wear-beast simply looked at the dwarf as if she wanted her to answer. "I have no clue where that came from!" She said.
"We have to ask the higher-ups after we give them to the authorities." The horse girl exclaimed.
"Sure that would be good."
From there they moved our location back to the village they came from while every was asleep.
