The rain stopped, and the girl hiding in the tree hole slowly opened her eyes. She sat up with a sleepy look.
"Ah ~ Morning."
The girl said out of habit, but the silence that followed made her come back to her senses. She looked at the messy pile of luggage beside her.
It wasn't a dream, but reality.
Mr. Ball was dead.
Reina closed her eyes in heartache. She gritted her teeth and tried not to let her tears fall.
Then again, she hadn't imagined a day without Mr. Ball. She had long gotten used to Mr. Ball's existence. Its existence made Reina feel that she wasn't alone. No matter what, Mr. Ball would always support her and stay by her side.
It understood her thoughts, and anything could be said to it.
On the first day without Mr. Ball, Reina felt truly lonely for the first time. She was alone in a strange place.
After packing her luggage, she left the tree hole. After losing Mr. Ball, she found that combing her hair was very troublesome, so she simply cut her hair short. With a fresh hairstyle, she embarked on a journey alone.
Because of Isabella's matter, she didn't go to the elves. She didn't know how to tell her. Now she planned to train while looking for a way back.
She wanted to go to the place Linchad mentioned, to find her master and her memories.
Training was for the sake of becoming stronger. Mr. Ball's death had deeply impacted Linnai's heart, causing her to feel extremely guilty. This feeling made her feel incomparably tormented. Perhaps this so-called training was to change her mind.
Reina's training was very strange. She determined the direction by the sun, then covered her eyes with a white cloth and walked straight in a direction. In the eyes of ordinary people, this was tantamount to suicide. The journey was very dangerous. One wrong step could cause her to fall into a bottomless abyss, or she could crash into a tree.
Bang!
"Ouch!"
The blindfolded Reina immediately crashed into a tree, but she didn't stop. Instead, she continued forward.
Bang!!
But after a few steps, she crashed into another tree.
Bang!!
She either crashed into a tree or tripped over a stone or weeds, but she still didn't take off the cloth in front of her eyes.
This training method was required by the black book. It was a trial that mages had to go through in order to master spatial magic.
Removing Eye Training Method.
It was a training that didn't rely on sight. Of course, at the beginning, one would be blindfolded in a room and practice sensing space for a period of time. The duration varied from person to person, but on average, it was half a year.
Reina was already able to vaguely perceive space, and she herself was not suitable for this gentle training method. Therefore, she directly began the extreme training.
Of course, this was only the first stage. There was still the earless stage, which was the advancement trial where one had to plug their ears and blindfold their eyes. These two stages were indispensable to the training of spatial perception. The more extreme ones would use magic to erase their skin's sense of touch and taste. The more extreme ones would even destroy their own eyes after mastering spatial perception to prevent their spatial perception from deteriorating.
Spatial Perception was a super perception that transcended the five senses. All camouflage was a joke in front of it. Moreover, Spatial Mages could use this perception to understand the nature of the surrounding objects. They could directly perceive the softness, hardness, and texture of the objects. Some Spatial Mages could even use this perception to understand the state of living creatures, such as happiness, anger, sorrow, and whether the body was injured, and so on.
But this required talent, and was not an ability that could be obtained through hard work.
Suddenly, Reina, who was moving forward, stopped. She exhaled, and in the dark world, a black wall appeared in the haze. She frowned, took a big step to the right, and then continued to move forward.
In the place where she was just now, there was a big tree blocking the way.
In addition to training her spatial perception, the Removing Eye Training also trained Reina's awareness, which could also be said to be courage. People who were blindfolded did not dare to move forward rashly, but she dared to take large strides forward, which required overcoming her instinctive fear. Of course, part of her courage came from the particularity of her body. Nearly a quarter of her body was made of magic, and part of the blood in her body was also made of magic. This meant that she would always maintain a high-intensity strengthening magic, and her body would not be so easily injured.
In the forest, the trees that she had bumped into all had a human print on them.
In addition, after being blindfolded, Reina was always in a state of alert, and the magic in her body would constantly be emitted to guard against sudden accidents. Experienced magicians would usually release magic to surround their bodies, and when they encountered danger, they could quickly use magic, which was very useful.
In this way, Reina embarked on a "dark" journey. In any case, she did not know where she was and where to go, so naturally, she did not get lost. Before she found someone to ask for directions, she would definitely have to walk around randomly. When she was blindfolded, she almost didn't stop walking. Her body that had fused with magic also meant that she could use the materialization of magic to meet her body's nutritional needs. This allowed her to not eat or drink for a long time, although she didn't know what the cost was.
In this way, she kept walking for more than three months …
A strange grassland. This place was not flat, and the uneven hills and ravines covered by weeds made this place very dangerous. The slightest carelessness would cause one to fall into a bottomless hole. Until now, no creature had been able to climb out of these holes alive.
The height of the grass was enough to reach one's thigh. With a rustling sound, something moved in the grass, and suddenly, a hairy four-legged creature poked its head out. It was all hair, and no eyes or nose could be seen. It was only when a red tongue stuck out of the hair that one knew it had a mouth.
"Chestnut, did you find something?"
At this moment, a strange figure appeared behind it. It was a red-skinned demon with a horn on its head, wearing a sweater. It looked like a hunter, with a bow and arrow on its back and a spiral spear in its hand.
Suddenly, the hairy creature made a rustling sound, and its hair stood up in one direction.
The red-skinned demon squatted on one knee beside Chestnut, one hand on its back, the other hand took out a round crystal and placed it in front of its right eye. It closed its left eye, and through the crystal, it could see very far.
In its field of vision, it saw a small figure appear in a grassland. There were many upright rocks there, and whenever the wind blew, the knee-deep grass would reveal eerie white bones.
"Oh no! Someone accidentally broke in, Chestnut, quickly go and bring her back! Before the Distorted Demon finds her, quickly go! "
The demon hunter patted Chestnut beside him, and the hairy creature whined and suddenly ran out quickly. At the same time, the hunter hurriedly ran forward for a distance, but suddenly heard Chestnut's roar.
This was a warning, it smelled the scent of the Distorted Demon!
The hunter immediately hid behind a rock, took out a bow and arrow, and installed the strange crystal on the bow.
It pulled the bowstring, looking for something through the crystal.
Suddenly, it saw the intruder clearly. She had a head of white hair, but seemed to be a child. She carried a leaf bag used by elves on her back, and there was a strange black thing hanging on her waist. Her weapon was probably only the knife tied to her right thigh.
She dared to break in so boldly, was she stupid?
The hunter suddenly saw something, and its squinted eyes suddenly widened. It saw that the other party was actually blindfolded, what was going on? The other party's hands and feet were not tied, could it be that she was born blind?
It couldn't think of an answer in a short time, but it knew that the other party was very dangerous.
Suddenly, a black shadow attracted its attention.
Distorted Demon!!
The hunter held its breath, it found that behind the intruder, there was a terrible shadow. Now that the three of them were in a line, the hunter couldn't shoot. And Chestnut was still a distance away from the intruder …
"Quick!! Chestnut! Quickly go! "
Suddenly, it threw down the bow in its hand and rushed out with the spear in its hand without a care for its own safety.
It was too late.
"Danger!! Run! Quickly leave! "
The hunter shouted. This was a dangerous move, it might attract the attention of the surrounding Distorted Demons or other Hybrid Demons.
However, the other party didn't seem to hear its voice, and continued to walk slowly.
A monster suddenly appeared from the grass. Its body was very uncoordinated and strange. Its limbs were very slender, as if it was skin and bones. One could see that its limbs were in a spiral shape. The strange thing was that its stomach was very round, as if it was swollen. Its head was like a bowling ball, with only three black holes.
It jumped up and spun in the air in a crazy manner. Its twisted limbs turned into terrifying sharp blades that grabbed at the intruder.
Just as the hunter concluded that there was no hope, the intruder suddenly turned around. She tilted her body slightly and dodged the fastest claw attack. Then, she raised her hand and casually grabbed the Hybrid Demon's hind leg. Then, she turned around and threw the Hybrid Demon out. The whole process was smooth without any pause.
The flying Hybrid Demon smashed into the rocks, and then the creature called Chestnut pounced over. It opened its bloody mouth and bit the Hybrid Demon.
The hunter stood there in shock, looking at the intruder.
"What! What!? What happened? Someone could actually see the Hybrid Demon's movements? No, she didn't see it, was it a sound? How is that possible? "
It muttered.
At this time, the other party took off the cloth covering her eyes, revealing a pair of dark blue eyes.
A gentle breeze blew, causing the shoulder length hair to sway gently.
