Departure form Britain

Departure from Britain

After Kai left Privet Drive, he stopped at the side of a road and started to think about ways to leave the country. The first was thought that came to him was to swim and run across Europe in order to get to Romania.

But when he thought it thoroughly he realized that he didn't know the route and even if he did, he could get lost much more easily. So, Kai had to rule out that idea even though he wanted to test out his limits and see if he was faster in water than on the ground.

He hadn't been able to test out his exact limit due to him never having a large enough space. Kai thought about trying to fly using apparition however to use it, it would require an enormous amount of energy. Something he didn't have, unfortunately.

Kai thought about having a Portkey, but he knew that to use it he would first have to have a clear image of the location in his mind. Unfortunately, Kai couldn't find any pictures that had the complete surroundings of an unpopulated street in Arad (the city that Kai wants to go to), so Kai had to rule out that idea.

Kai then thought of the magic he had created. A flight spell, as its name suggested it allowed him to fly. However, he could only fly at a certain speed and height depending on the amount of energy he poured into the spell. Over the years he had been developing his magic control, capacity, and spells. But he still didn't have a way to break his body's energy limit. Unlike the inhumane main characters in the original series where they seemed to have an unlimited amount of energy. Kai had to admit that J.K Rowling hadn't set and energy limits for the main characters, making the energy consumption seem nonexistent.

But now that he had could actually use magic he realized what an error he had made.

Kai then moved on to another spell that he had created Acceleration- a speed type buff that would increase his agility by 10%. Kai had created this type of spell in his third year of learning magic, and during that time he had been trying to create magic and use it to its highest potential because he didn't need to use a wand.

Kai had created many different spells that worked differently than the normal spells. The earliest ones were the buff types, they could give a boost in the "stat" they were assigned to.

Kai considered using the spell due to it being an extremely low-cost spell, its ability to stack on itself up to 3 times, as well as its high utility. The only downside of the spell was its time limit, it would only work for an hour.

Kai considered the options again and decided that the buff spell would be the most efficient. At the same time, he made a mental note to find a solution to his insufficient energy capacity.

Kai only had one more problem- the route. He still didn't know how to get to Romania without getting lost halfway.

Kai thought of using a GPS but instantly got stopped with his train of thought, as he thought that it was stupid to even consider the GPS due to it not being able to sense where he would be at his monstrous speeds.

He was just standing by the road when he remembered a new feature that was recently added to the court. It was a special device that was a combination of magic and technology in the form of a wristwatch.

The watch could tell you the time normally, but when a person's magic signature touched the watch it would change completely.

(Au: The magic signature is like a fingerprint, everybody has one including muggles. The difference is that they have such a small amount of magic it usually doesn't show up on the usual wizard sensory device.)

The watch had three main functions, it could act as a mission board. In it, the user could browse through the various missions and requests to find a task that he could do in his own comfort without having to travel to one of the Court's branches.

Another option was the ability to communicate with other members, similar to the WhatsApp of today. In it, the members could talk to each other vocally, message them and talk face to face. If they wanted the watch could show the intended person, the user's location and thus could send an SOS to that person.

The last ability happened to be what Kai needed a worldwide map with GPS that showed all magical and normal locations. However, the feature was still undergoing experimentation in the Court's central labs. At least that was what Kai knew from a year ago.

Kai wanted to know how the GPS feature's progress was developing. Kai then started up the watch by manipulating the magical energy inside of him towards the wristwatch on his hand. The watch that he had gotten was a custom made one specially built for Kai.

Kai had told Tom to issue a special watch that could withstand the supersonic speeds that he moved at. The watch was given to him a few months later, he was told that the watch was made out of rare and special ores. The watch ran on magical energy, so when it ran out of energy it could always recharge by using ME.

(I'm calling magical energy ME for short because it's annoying writing magical energy every time.)

Due to there being muggles inevitably using it there was an introduction to solar-powered watches as well. The solar-powered feature which had become popular and very energy efficient had been placed on all the new models, so Kai had gotten a watch that ran on solar power as well as ME.

Kai activated the watch and contacted Tom. Tom's face then appeared on Kai's watch in a similar manner to a holograph only instead of the face appearing in blue, the colour was black.

"What do you want Kai? I thought that you were going to Romania, by now I would have thought that you would have already been halfway there already."

"Well Tom it appears I've been too hasty, you see I don't actually know how to get to Romania without getting lost. So, I wanted to call you and ask if the GPS is up by now?"

"Oh, Kai you don't know that feature's already up for six months and you don't know about it…" Tom said in a surprised and slightly mocking voice.

"Don't mess with me Tom, just tell me how to activate it. Don't give me any crap."

Kai noticed that after Tom's transformation his personality had become much more carefree and peaceful now that his goal had been reached, the goal of Immortality. Of course, he still had his ruthless side, just that it had been buried under his happiness over the fact that his lifelong goal had been reached.

Kai followed Tom's instructions and pulled up the page made for the mapping system. One of the reasons the mapping system took so long was because Kai had to be able to use it as well without needing to reduce his speed.

After Kai activated the map he looked at the young face of Tom still floating above the watch and said softly "thanks, Tom." Kai disconnected from the call and activated the map. He selected the city Arad in Romania as his destination and set off.

The trip to Romania should take around 12 minutes, give or take if he ran at his top physical speed. But it should take less if he buffed himself with acceleration. Kai then set off at a relaxed pace intending to enjoy the view around him.

Sorry for not uploading chapters for almost a week. My computer broke after my fan fell off the wall and landed on it breaking the screen. I know most people won't care about it but I could only get a replacement now and wrote as soon as I could.

Ps, I still remember that I owe you all 3 chapters.
