90 Chapter 90: Gifts For The Kids
During the past dozen and two days, Godo continued to teach the three whatever he could.
Firstly Folaei. She was now at the level where she could wield her greatsword fairly easily and do some tricks and moves including one of the techniques present in the 'Creator's Blades', 'Divine Laceration'. On the other hand, she was yet to learn 'One Point Thrust'
Second was Shuya. Now, he was able to barely perform the '10 Split Attack'. He also slightly upgraded his 'One Point Thrust', and he was currently learning 'Divine Laceration' as well.
He also advanced to a 3rd Grade Mage, and his speciality was using lightning along with his swordplay, well the only exception being he was yet to learn more than three simple combo moves.
Lastly was Rai. She was now a Grade 5 Mage, surprising both Folaei and Shuya, but not Godo. She could also use spells like 'Wind Consolidation' and it's elemental counterparts, 'Wind Barrier', 'Wind Blow', 'Wind Bullet' and all their elemental counterparts.
She also knew some supporting magic, spells like 'Attack Enhancing', 'Sharpen Edge', 'Defense Enhancing' and some minor ones. She also had one particularly powerful spell, called 'Wind Barrage', a 5th Grade Spell.
These results were a bit more than what Godo hoped, so he was pleasantly surprised.
There were also some other things that happened. The information about the bandits that Godo gave to the Guildmaster was made into a mission and was put up as a B Rank Mission. And in just 2 days the mission was completed by a group of adventurers led by a man named Jene, and the prisoners were rescued. Godo and team did not take part in this mission.
They also bought some things. A total of 20 Instant Mana Potions, 10 Extended Mana Potions, 40 Instant Health Potions, 20 Extended Health Potions, some pouches, some day to day shoes and clothes, and they also sold Folaei's Carnage Daggers and bought a simple Iron Greatsword.
They did all that for the low low price of 1 gold coin, 970 silver coins and 700 copper coins. So basically 2 gold coins.
They spent their time taking some E and D Rank Missions, and also C Rank ones occasionally. They had earned around 300 silver coins from the missions these past days. After they finished their missions, they trained with Godo again. And after 2 weeks, well you know the results.
Now, they were currently inside the Guild, just hanging out. Godo went to ask one of the receptionist about the qualification and when the kids would be called to be brought to the academy.
"That's, we don't actually know. Whenever the Guildmaster says, its when they are called."
The receptionist said. With nothing useful, Godo went back to the team who were sitting around a table.
"Did you find out anything, Sir Godo?"
Folaei asked,
"No, it looks like the Guildmaster has complete authority over this matter. So we just have to wait."
"We'll have to wait? I don't wanna wait anymore."
Shuya and Rai both complained. Nene was sitting on Godo's shoulder and didn't seem to pay attention to the conversation and was staring off blankly. He thought that she may be doing something with the Nature Gem currently, so he just let her be. But the kids didn't seem to think that way,
"Hey Nene. Why have you been so silent this morning. Did something happen?"
"Yea did something happen?"
The two kids asked. This snapped Nene back to reality, she smiled a bit and brushed the back of her head,
"Ehehe, well. I have been converting the contents of the Nature Gem into Nature Aura for the past few days and, these days i feel like i may advance any minute now."
"Ohh! What kind of spirit will you become?!"
"Well that's the main reason, i don't have any type of element, skills or arts that i want to specialise in. So I'm trying my best to contain my Aura."
"Oh, well, do you need my help Nene?"
Godo asked her.
"Ah, it won't be necessary Sir Godo. I'll handle this much."
The two kids felt a bit sad that they wouldn't be able to see Nene advance into an Advanced Spirit. But alas, it wasn't the right time.
While all this talk was happening, it was when Godo suddenly remembered something,
"Wait a minute kids, I'll be right back."
He said as he quickly moved to a corner where eyes couldn't normally wander into. He then opened up a crack in space then brought out the staff and sword he had made for Shuya, and along with two books, both bearing the author's name as Godo.
"Woah Sir Godo! What was that? What did you just do?"
'Ah, i forgot Nene was sitting on my shoulder'
He messed up good time. Well there wasn't really anything he could do anymore as she had already seen everything, so he began to explain,
"Well that was a pretty complicated Dark Type Magic Spell mixed with both Light and Wind Type Spells. It allows me to create a small backpack out of thin air and store things into it."
Nene had no reasom to doubt him, so she nodded quickly and took his word for it.
"Then what are the books and the staff and sword for?"
She continued to ask.
"Well i think you already know what this book, 'Creator's Blades' is for. This other book is another one that i wrote for Rai, it contains instructions on how to perform spells, and how to utilise her core. I have written up to 10th Grade."
She nodded understandingly while unconsciously muttering 'ohh, i see'.
"And this sword is for Shuya, i asked a good friend of mine to make it, same with this staff."
Godo decided to not tell Nene that he was the one who made these 2 weapons.
"Ohh, so it's your gift for their enrollment? Wait! I haven't prepared anything!"
She suddenly shouted out. She began to quickly think up of something she could present, but nothing seemed to come to mind.
Godo chuckled as he talked,
"Haha, you don't really have to give them something Nene, i did this as their master so you don't have to do the same."
"But I'm their friend!"
Godo tried to continue, but he stopped. It was true, friends were indeed the people who did things that others wouldn't. Out of the many of the biographies, auto biographies, fairy tales, novels and other kinds of book he read, the people who were considered as a friend by the main character were the ones who helped when others turned their backs.
So he just smiled, then he picked up the two books from the floor and he walked back to the others. Nene was now not listening yet again, but for a different reason this time.
"Gramps, why did you suddenly went there?"
"Yea Sir Godo? Why did you tell us to wait?"
As he placed the books and the two weapons on the table, he talked with a cheerful tone,
"It was for these. A present from me. Here Shuya, this sword and book called 'Creator's Blades' is for you. And Rai, this staff and this book named 'Early Guide Towards Magic' is for you."
The kids were extremely happy to see a staff and a sword, not to mention they were both decorated. The books were also no different, the cover was beautifully painted, and they both had drawings of weapons and magic spells respectively
Their eyes no, their whole face was gleaming as if the sun itself had shone right up their face. They quickly opened their books and they looked at what was written. Godo had restricted the enchantments for now and wanted the kids to get a glimpse of the books each.
"You didn't have to Sir Godo."
Folaei said, flustered by the things that Godo had pulled out.
"Miss Folaei, no need for compensation or anything. We are comrades, and most of all, I'm their master."
He said as he showed a warm smile.
Folaei, seeing Godo's smile, stopped what she was about to say, then she also smiled.
"Thank You very much, Sir Godo. Both as a mother and a friend."
"Haha, your welcome."

Somewhere Inside a Forest, with an Elf Boy.
Here was an Elf, walking around with a Dog, a Bird, a Squirrel, a Goblin and 6 wolves by his side.
"Today is the day friends! Today is when i finally summon more companions!"
The elf shouted with great enthusiasm. It seems he wasn't worried or wary about monsters lurking in the forest.
"It has been 2 weeks, 2 whole weeks. I've fought my urge for summoning for a long time, and today, it will have paid off. Why don't we look at what i can summon."
"Summons!"
He found out that he could just say Summons instead of saying Status first then going into Summons. It didn't really seem useful, but it reduced a minor inconvenience so.
He first took a look at [Rank-0].
---------------------------
[Rank-0] Summons:
·Bird·
·Dog·
·Goblin·°
·Squirrel·
Slime°
Worm°
Rabbit°
Snake°
Wolf°
Bear°
Deer°

Beetle
.....
---------------------------
"Ohhh! Yes!"
The Elf Boy shouted with great joy.
"Let's summon all of them!"
Then he began to summon them one by one.
After a few minutes, the forest was now packed. There were now a total of 4 Goblins, 2 Slimes, 2 Worms, 3 Rabbits, 1 Snake, 1 Wolf, 1 Bear and 2 Deers.
"I think, i might have to de-summon some of you. I haven't even looked at the other Ranks."
The Elf Boy said, he first began to de-summon the ones that were more than 1 in number, then he decided that for now, he would not touch the other Ranks. Finally, he began to name them.
He named the Slime-Acia, the Worm-Eadar, the Rabbit-Kiel, the Snake-Seyv, the Wolf-Twir, the Bear-Fere and the Deer-Loer. After that, they began to converse with the already summoned animals and the 6 wolves the Elf Boy tamed.
"I guess my hypothesis that a name gives the summons intelligence, is correct after all."
He sat down on a rock and looked at the animals conversing happily, and behind their shadows, he could see a faint silhouette of himself and some of his friends in Japan playing together. He showed an expression of slight sadness, but he quickly retracted it.
"Status"

"Now that's!! A leap. But wait, if I'm that strong now, why haven't i felt anything different in my body?"
