Hero Of The World 21 Chapter 21: Nobody Was Born A Hero

"Why are you hiding your ident.i.ty?" Ned after recovering asked him.

"Would you believe me if I said I made this whole inn at this city just to wait for a certain someone?" the old man said.

"Sure why not? But they must be quite important for the kingdom to send a rank 8 to get him" Ned said.

"Ay the kingdom already found that person and they are now treating him like a prince." Alaster said, while sighing, clearly disapproving of that 'prince'.

Ned was now perplexed with all this talk. So he just asked "So you had a disagreement on that person and now you are looking for the one that you feel is the correct person?"

The old man gave a nod, and was thankful for Ned's quick uptake on the subject.

"Alright, then do you mind if I ask, do you need something else from me? I have already answered your questions" Ned said after he felt like they talked enough. He still had to enter the s.p.a.ce to train after which he will think of what guild to join.

"If I may be rude, I still want to ask you something?" Alaster said.

And Ned nodded his head "Sure" .

"Would you like to be this old man's disciple?" once Ned heard that, the wheels turned in his head and everything started making sense.

The person Alaster was waiting for was him. And the kingdom already found someone like him. Therefore he thought back to the book he read that said a Hero will rise from the human kingdom.

And so he turned to Alaster that was waiting for his answer, and said " old man, am I the person you were searching for" to which he saw him nod and then continued "Do you think that I'm the prophesized hero the world need?"

And once again the old man nodded but this time much more surprised than before, probably at how Ned was able to deduce things quickly.

Ned gave an exasperated sigh as he said "Old man I'm no hero. I wouldn't sacrifice myself for someone I don't know, although I wouldn't do any unrighteous thing, I would kill if I was in danger of dying, these aren't qualities of a hero. I'm just a normal guy trying to survive, and once I'm strong enough I want to roam the world searching for new things"

Although the he said he would kill if he was in danger, he wouldn't know for sure after all he was a modern guy, he wasn't sure he could stomach killing someone.

"Young Ned, n.o.body was born a hero. But there is no need for you to think about a hero's qualities right now. And you can also take your time in thinking about my proposal. I know you think training is easy right now, but once you reach rank 4 you would know that you'll need advice on how to proceed, until then you can stay at our inn free of charge."

Ned nodded and excused himself to his room. For a moment he wanted to even change inns but then he thought against it, as these people weren't bad.

When ne reached his room, Lori caught up to him and handed him a potion, as she said "Once again, I'm sorry. And take this as a sign of the coming friends.h.i.+p between us" and left without waiting for a response.

Once he got inside the room, he locked it and entered into the s.p.a.ce, went to his home, sat on the bed as he read the info of the scan used on the potion.

[Enlightenment potion: a potion that helps people to sense the elements better and faster when meditating]

Once he read that he finally knew what she said to him about the resources.

He drank it and hoped that he'll be able to advance to rank 4 expert magician by the morning, as he had already met the requirements of his battle force along the year of training.

The potion was really awesome as once he drank it he could feel the elements much better and it was even easy to absorb them into his heart. He guessed that at this rate he will really reach rank 4 by morning.

......

By the time morning came, he had already reached the breaking through point in both magic and battle force.

When he broke through to rank 2 and 3 he didn't make an achievement, but he was antic.i.p.ating one, once he broke to rank 4 as it is a different stage. The expert stage.

And so he made the decision and broke through after bringing the screen in front of him.

[Achievement. Reached rank 4 expert.

Rewards:

-Combination spell Earth/Fire (Meteor)

-Wind magic manual.]

He felt happy as he finally reached rank 4 and graduated from being a beginner. And he also got a new type of magic, and a spell that combined both earth and fire magic.

He had an idea about the spell. It would probably summon a flaming meteorite to attack his foes.

Satisfied he wanted to go try them a bit, but now he wasn't in the forest where he doesn't mind about the time.

He need to get out, eat breakfast and find a place to train in. And at night he will enter a bit early, to work on the new gravity spell that will help him train in the future, before meditating.
