Echo'es of Time

Xavis was released easily than he had expected but it was obvious he was being watched from somewhere outside of his Chariot, he still couldn't remember what had actually happened to him, his thoughts were still jammed up in his Chariot going back home , the uneven road and the movement of the Chariot made his thoughts more scattered.

He couldn't even think of anything, he let out a frustrating sigh. All of his questions were still unanswered,

How did I end up in the clinic?

Did I do something bad?

The clan leader had told the healer not to tell him anything just Incase so as to watch his behavior, but the secret couldn't be kept for long, after all many students had seen how everything went down.

The most annoying question Xavis was stuck with was

Why was his mouth moving on it's own?,

He didn't want to tell anyone afraid he would be locked up if he told them what he had said, that was the best cause of action,His brain had the thought of some kind of possession after he was given protection charms that were used to ward off demons, that only had told him that something had controlled his body to do something,

'But,what ?'

"Young master,how are you feeling back there?" The Chariot men called out, Xavis snapped out from his thoughts ,

" I'm Good " he answered back ,

"We are almost home , just hang in" The Chariot men had been told Xavis was sick and nothing else, that was much easy to deal with than actually telling them that their masters son had tried killing himself and didn't have any memories of doing it.

His eyes was fixed outside the window, The town was still busting with activities after all the school had closed and children were back home while most high families children were locked in their various homes learning or cultivating, most of the locals children were out playing all around, The locals only joy was the fun of life after all life was hard in Innuna...no , life was hard in the whole of Nytheris. A whole family of three with the family head a mortal ( non-gifted ) could go on a couple of three bronze coin per day with an estimated amount of twenty -one coins per week and almost a hundred bronze coin per month this was an outrageous price for a regular family in Inunna due to the fact that it was hard for the to come up with about a hundred bronze coin for only feeding in a month not adding other expenses. While families which had a gifted head are said to find it much easier than others ,the once whom had it much easier were the high ranking hierarchy in the society having more than enough.

Xavis family was part of that , hailing from one of the two main family within the Ishtar main clan tree The Ken and Kan Family, Xavis family was regarded as royalty as far as the clan was concerned he could even be the clan leader if he actually worked hard in his life to get stronger and gain the clan respect.

But that wasn't really around his arms or goals in life , after all as far as he was concerned he didn't even want to be a Cultivator, he never did . He was one to hate stressful stuffs and ones that were dangerous at that , he loved his life too well to be a warrior.

'Pathetic Thinking '

A thought crept into his mind, he sighed, During the test for his soul core he had wished he was not a gifted person deep down within him but painful he was gifted but just barely having a Rank C core realm which meant cultivation would be hard for him. At the actual realization that he was gifted his ideal world had shattered in his eyes, being a gifted child of a member of the main family whether lowly gifted or highly gifted meant he was going to be a Cultivator which was something he desperately wanted to run from but couldn't.

But still one could say he found a way around it , he had barely even started cultivating, he used every opportunity he had to escape anything joining him with training or getting stronger . He hadn't even started to form his mana core seriously while most of his peers had almost completely formed their cores ready to become fully fledged Magic users. His mom actually thought he was always cultivating while locked up in his room but actually in reality he slept or read his books , his dad wasn't even around to monitor his daily cultivation, it wasn't like his dad went off to get milk and never came back - he was simply on a private mission. As one of the clan only 2-Star Gold rank Cultivator , he was often busy working under the Kingdom army rarely came back home because of the nature of his work . One could say that lack of fatherly love was one of the factors that affected Xavis thinking of not wanting to be a Cultivator.

'Pathetic Thinking' The thought crept in again, Xavis eye brow twitched,

'Your nothing more than a naive bastard ' The thought was louder now almost like someone was talking to him,he was startled something was speaking to him.

Or was it just his thoughts ?, he couldn't tell after all everything that had happened today kept him on the edge close to losing it.

He sighed,

"After all Naive bastards tend to stay alive " He blurted out trying to justify himself he heard nothing after that, he laughed, what was he expecting? A voice or a reply.

His laugh increased , he didn't even totally believe the whole crap of possession.

Of course he had passed out , it could have been he was exhausted.

Of course he had heard himself speak without speaking himself, it could have been that he was just making it all up.

This were the things he wanted to believe, things he wanted to just tell himself and forget about everything else.

His body jolted hearing a laughter within his mind,

'Naive bastards tend to stay alive you say ?'

The laughter increased, it was as though the person was rolling on the floor seriously laughing.

' Was this how stupid I was ?' The voice added while it slowly stopped laughing, Xavis was terrified looking around him and grabbing his head,

Crap, crap what the hell is this ?

"Who the hell are you?" His voice almost yelling but controlling his voice not to reach outside.

The voice stopped for a second,

'Your naivety would get people around you killed ' it added not answering Xavis question ,

Xavis eyes trembled, now he was sure something was in him , he wanted to yell but didn't, if he did and told the guards with him what would they think of him ?

He didn't want to be painted as a mad man.

"Who the hell are you?" He was gripping his head tightly with tears almost dropping from his eyes.

The voice sighed ...

'Me?' The voice asked, Xavis eyes wide his hands left his head , the voice actually answered him.

' I am Kaido,a older version of you who wants nothing but to die '

Xavis heart stopped beating for a second, time stopped moving in his eyes , with his mind almost tearing apart.
