Chapter 7

Flashback moments

So, Natsume set off to save his best friend. The magical items he have are the cloak of invisibility, the cap of wisdom, the flying boots, the x-ray glasses, and the barrier to protect you against powerful magic.

"Wow, these items sure are powerful. I guess I would need them all." He said.

After flying for a mile…

Natsume's POV

"I guess I have to rest now. That's really tiring." I muttered.

This place is really strange. Oh yeah, I don't know how did I caught up in this mess. Well, that was...

-flashback-

I was taking my breakfast in our house when suddenly I heard marching of feet. Then the door flew open and immediately a man with green eyes and a blonde hair around 20-27 i think came and told us something.

"On behalf of King Ruka Nogi, our king, I present to you this letter. It says that as part of our tradition, young men are to face some battles when they come in the right age. But, the king's daughter, the princess, needs to have a husband and if you could pass the test, you will be married to the princess. And I hereby proclaim that you're a candidate for the princess's husband. So, I'm here, to ask your answer if you would join the battle game." The messenger said.

He was a messenger after all. And after hearing this, all the villagers were happy for me. "Come on, join the battle game." One of the elders said to me while tapping my left shoulder.

"Thank you." I replied happily.

"Son, if you want to live in this world, you must act according to your feelings alright?" the goldsmith said while tapping my back and I almost fell.

"Thanks a lot. Alright then, I'm gonna join the battle game!" I said while raising my hand.

"Oh thank you very much." The messenger replied and bowed down.

"Ok pack your things now and be ready for your long journey at the castle." The goldsmith said to me.

I sounds more like a command. I'm sad that I would leave them all. But the villagers said

"Don't worry about us young man, we'll be alright! Follow your dreams."

"Yeah! Don't worry Natsume! We can take care of ourselves!" said the others.

"You guys were so kind to me! Thank you very much! How can I ever repay you all?" I asked.

"Don't worry son. When you are accepted at the castle, just come here and visit us. The Thunderstorm village is always being opened for you." The elder said.

"After all these years of taking care of you, you finally come in the right age. 17 years is such a long time. And now, you're leaving us." The goldsmith said, with fake tears.

"Now, don't get too emotional in there Pops." I replied while dropping a sweat.

"Natsume, promise me you'll come back home one piece." Youichi said.

"Yes I promise you little Youichi. I'll come back and beat those guys who make you cry." I replied while tapping his head.

"Alright, promise is a promise. Deal?" he asked.

"Deal!" I replied.

"Now-now bade goodbye to your big brother."His mother said.

"Right! Bye big bro! You rock!" he said.

"Yeah take care too little bro!" I replied. And they bade me good bye.

-end of flashback-

I don't know how this planet is created with such beautiful things. Flying birds, colorful rainbows, rushing water, pretty flowers, sturdy trees, gentle wind and Mik- what am I talking about? She's not beautiful I mean...she's a BAKA and nothing else!!! I shook my head to keep me from thinking about those thoughts.

"I have to go now. Mikan needs me. I have to save her." I said proudly.

After resting for a while, I immediately stand up and fly again into the sky. There's not much time left. Time is gold. Convert it to cash. Just kidding. Her stupid mountain is nowhere to be found. Ugh. She could have told me where it was. But that would be really stupid of her.

Anyway I have to go now coz if I arrived late in there, she would definitely be dead. And I don't want her to die. I had promised her that i'm going to protect her even if it costs my life. My promise to her will be broken and I will never forgive myself.

Normal POV

Back at the castle…the king…

"It looks like one of our players is missing. At this case, he's disqualified for not showing up. Ok let's start the battle." The king said.

Meanwhile, Natsume is…

"I guess I should wear the cap of wisdom so that I would know where that castle is!!!" he said.

And immediately fly in a really high speed. Then, he came on a swamp full of rattle snakes.
