The sun had risen. We were all eating breakfast to continue our camping trip, though. I told Pam and the rest of her friends that I was going to talk to my team about something, the girls agreed and when I got to where Diana and my team were, I started to tell them everything that happened. except for Pam, I needed to tell her later.

"And that's what happened last night." I said looking at my team. The girls were very surprised but Zatanna was even more surprised but thoughtful at the same time.

"The legendary Nozomi Tojo. I heard that in the past, she was a world-renowned water mage not only as a leader of the elements. But, it was said that her skill in hunting combined with her magic made her one of the the strongest hunters that existed before." Zatanna said with some surprise.

"That explains why now I feel like I can shoot an arrow with my eyes closed while I'm upside down." I said before putting an ice pack on my head. Even though a long night passed, the memories still made me ache.

"There's one thing I don't understand. I mean, how is it possible that Nozomi is inside Benja's mind right now? I just think, but. Shouldn't she be dead?" Barbi asked with some confusion as Barbara seemed to analyze everything.

"Zatanna, tell me. Is it possible that some magic was preserved in Nozomi's necklace?" Barbara asked as she points to the necklace on my chest.

"It's possible. Besides, she was a very powerful mage. And if Benja says that necklace belonged to Nozomi, it's possible that some of her magic was left behind." Said the magical girl as she looked at the redhead but this only generated doubts.

"That's a good answer but. Benja, you said that you felt different. You mentioned something like two souls had merged. Do you think Nozomi's soul is in your body?" Tatsu asked as she remembered what had happened earlier with a certain ghost.

"I don't think so. Even though I now have her memories, I don't hear her voice, let alone her control my body." I said with some seriousness.

Zatanna was about to speak when suddenly Carol hugged me from behind causing me to be surprised.

"Good morning my pretty prince, sorry to interrupt but the headmaster says it's time to go so we're leaving now." Carol said with a smile as she took my arm, she was ignoring the angry looks from the other girls.

"Okay, Carol. See you later girls." I said with a shy smile as I went with the girl but that only annoyed my team even more.

"Very well campers, attention. We will go right now to the heart of the forest, I want everyone to be united and nobody to separate. When it gets dark we will all rest, now walking." Said the director while we all left the place.


Along the way, Pam couldn't prevent me from reading the book Nozomi so she would approach where I was while the others kept walking.

"Hey, Benja. Isn't that the book that was in that temple?" Pam asked quietly.

"Yes, it is the book of an ancient water mage. According to this map, there is an ancient sacred forest in the forest." I said looking at Pam, the girl hearing that seemed interested.

"A sacred forest?." The girl asked curiously.

"For years. The magicians who used nature magic lived thanks to the help of mother earth. Mother nature gave them a home, food and care for them. The only thing that the magicians could do to return that help, was swear to protect nature and use their powers only as a form of protection and find wisdom."

"However, the wizards feared for his protection, so using their magic they cast a spell that would hide their home in the middle of nature. It is said that an ivy wizard can enter only if his mind and soul are at one with nature. and listen to the voice of the ancient trees." I said while looking at the map that Nozomi left me.

"Do you plan to go find that forest?" Pam asked as she looked at me.

"I have to. Maybe that way I'll find a way to find more spells. I'll have to do it at night though, we can't be separated from the others." I said looking at all the other students.

"Okay. But be careful, what if there's more evidence like those water golems last night?" Pam asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. It's interesting what he says here about ivy mages, though. It's completely different from what I've seen in other books." I said before I started reading the ivy mages page.

"Wizards who used nature magic had before had something that stood out from the others. They were blind. They used their senses, and nature as their eyes to know their way and be able to defend themselves." I said while looking at the book, that surprised Pam a lot.

"Wait, if they were blind. How could they fight?" The girl asked very surprised.

"When an ivy wizard is attached to nature both physically and spiritually, their magic allows them to guide them as if nature were guiding them, no matter where they were. Wizards were guided by their senses and their connection to their magic and nature." I said looking at the illustration of an ivy wizard.

The illustration showed a man dressed as a monk, his hair was dark green, his suit was green tied with a brown leather belt, his shoes were comfortable, and he wore white stockings. However, his eyes were covered with bandages.

"Very well students. It's lunch time, everyone get together and eat. We'll continue with the tour later." The director said as we all sat down to eat.

When I sat down with the team the director gave me, Carol quickly sat on my crotch making me turn red with embarrassment while the girls on my team, Doris, Pam, Barbi and Tatsu glared at the girl.

"Honey, I did something special for both of us. You won't mind if I sit here, will you?" Carol asked as she wiggled her butt a little, causing her to bounce up and down on my crotch. That angered the girls more.

"Carol, wouldn't it be better if you sat somewhere other than the nerd's crotch?" Doris asked with a throbbing vein.

"Are you kidding, Doris? I'm very comfortable here, and surely my handsome husband enjoys a certain part of me at the moment." Carol said with a flirtatious smile as she circled her hips but suddenly she was hit on the head by Pam.

"Leave Benja alone, you perverted whore. And sit like a normal person." Pam said angrily leaving Carol with no choice but to sit down as she pouted.

The day passed normally, after eating we all went back to walking. After hours of walking, the director and everyone stopped in the heart of the forest to relax and rest.

"Very well campers. Here we will stay, it is a beautiful place and whoever needs to take a bath. Near us there is a small lake." Said the director as he pointed to a lake near the camp.

We all nodded our heads before preparing the place to rest. The dinner was quiet, after that I decided to relax so I went to the lake to think how I could find the old town of the ivy wizards.

Nevertheless. I looked at the moon while I thought about what Nozomi had told me, this was something very serious. If my destiny here was to protect this world, then it would be a difficult task.

"Um, Benja." I turned around only to see Harleen near the edge of the lake.

"Harleen, is everything okay?" I asked worried. The girl seemed somewhat sad.

"Yeah, it's all right. I just wanted to ask if I can come with you." Harleen said as she sheepishly scratched her arm.

A silence fell. We both didn't know what to say to each other until Harleen broke the silence.

"Benja. I want you to do me a favor, okay?" The girl said making me look at her and pay attention.

"If one day I leave and don't come back to Metropolis, please promise me that you will take care of Barbara and make her happy for me." Harleen said as she looked at the moon causing me to be very surprised.

"Harleen. But why?" I said surprised however the girl would look me in the eyes of her showing her seriousness which surprised me even more. I've never seen Harleen so serious.

"Just keep that promise. Please." Harleen said as she looked at me.

"I promise you, Harleen. I'll take good care of Barbara for you." I said looking at the girl causing her to sigh in relief. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted off of her.

"Thank you Benja. Forgive me if I put this weight on you. I just don't want to leave Barbara alone." Harleen said as she looked at the moon.

"Harleen. Why are you asking me this? Is there a problem?" I asked worried.

"It's nothing, Benja. I just don't want to leave Barbara alone. She cares a lot about me and I don't want her to suffer if I ever leave. But don't worry, it doesn't mean I'm leaving now." Harleen said with a smile. But deep down, the girl seemed a bit hurt.

"That's good to know. I don't think Barbara would like knowing you're leaving now." I said smiling but I saw that the girl looked hurt when I told her that. That worries me a lot.

"Yeah. Sorry, me. I have to go now." Harleen said before walking off leaving me alone.

"Harleen. Did I say something wrong?" I asked myself concerned as I look in the direction the girl left. However I felt something under the water and suddenly something jumped on me causing me to fall to the ground.

"Hello my sweetheart. Did I make you wait long?" My face turned red at the sight of Carol on top of me. The beast girl a very provocative pink bikini. Her bra was a bit small making me see the girl's breasts a bit more revealing and the bottom was about the same.

"Carol, what are you wearing? If the headmaster finds out about this we'll be in a lot of trouble." I said nervously but at that moment the girl gave me a passionate teasing kiss as she wrapped her arms and legs around me so I wouldn't escape.

"I don't care if they find us. I want my man this full moon night, I want you to make me your woman." Carol said lustfully as the girl took off her bra. When I was going to speak suddenly the girl put her breasts on me while Carol had a smile full of madness and Lust.

"That's right, suck on my breasts my love." She told the girl until she felt something under them causing her madness to increase.

"Wow, I turn you on so much. That turns me on too." The girl said as she brought her small bundle closer, making me manage to separate my head a little.

"Carol please stop. If Diana or someone sees us.", I was going to continue speaking but the girl looked at me with eyes full of madness while the girl grabbed my cheeks.

"I don't give a shit if bitch Diana sees us. I want her to see how I make you my man while I take what she never took from you." Said the girl madly as she showed some condoms causing me to turn pale.

"Don't worry my love. This will be fun, we're both going to have fun all night. Although I think condoms won't be enough, but. What does it matter, right?" Carol asked madly but at that moment the girl received a strong blow to her head causing the girl to fall to the ground unconscious.

I looked ahead only to be very surprised to see Jessica with a frying pan. The girl was trembling in fear, her eyes seemed to be on the verge of tears as her hands trembled causing the pan to fall as the girl looked at her hands with shock.

"Me. I just hit someone." Jessica said in fear causing me to quickly hug the girl. A gesture that Jessica accepted as she began to cry out of fear.

"Jessica, relax. Everything is fine now, please don't cry. It's over." I said worried as the girl slowly recovered but the girl was still breathing hurriedly due to her racing heart.

"I don't know what happened to me. When I saw Carol trying to do something to you, I got mad and then. I killed Carol!!" Jessica yelled before using the ring on her and to our relief. Carol was only unconscious.

"I was able to kill her. I almost killed Carol. All because I couldn't contain my anger." The girl slowly began to gasp but I quickly grabbed her hands.

"Jessica Cruz!! Look at me!! Look me in the eye!!" I yelled as I grabbed Jessica by her cheeks causing her to look into my eyes.

"You didn't want to, and I understand. Many times when we have a very strong feeling, we can't control it and it makes us do things we don't want to. I know you didn't want to hurt Carol, and you wouldn't kill anyone." I said as the girl relaxed but she also blushed seeing how close the two of us were.

"Jessica. You are a very sweet, kind girl with a huge heart. You are a very generous person who always seeks to solve things through words and not by fighting. You just got scared and didn't know what to do." I said before hugging the girl making the girl reciprocate with a smile and a huge blush on her cheeks.

"Thanks Benja, I needed this." Jessica said with a smile as she pulled away from me. When the girl saw that I was only in shorts she slowly made the rest of the girl turn red.

"Hay mi papasito sexy." Jessica said somewhat madly as the girl spoke in Spanish. But that made the girl look away in embarrassment before getting up.

"We'd better get back to camp and take Carol with us. We can tell the headmaster that she overslept." Jessica said nervously as she puts the pan away while we both leave with Carol.


When we got to the camp. Everyone would go to sleep except for me, I slowly started to get up from my sleeping bag before taking out Nozomi's book.

"Very well. I'd better go find that sacred forest. I just hope it all works out." I said as I started to walk but when I was going to leave the camp I felt someone hug me from behind.

"Hello my sweetheart. Did you miss me?" Barbi asked with a smile making me blush a lot.

"Barbi? What are you doing up at this hour?" I asked surprised making the girl start laughing.

"I couldn't sleep well without my sweet snowflake. Why don't you go back to your sleeping bag, and if you're cold. We can hug each other to share the warmth of our bodies." Barbi said with a cheeky smile making me blush.

"Um, Barbi. Me. Actually I have things to do. I have to find the ancient forest of the ivy mages." I said nervously as I show Barbi the book.

"Well, in that case. We both go together." Barbi said as she took my arm.

"Okay. Just don't let go of me." I said nervously as I could feel the girl's breasts before we left.


Minutes passed. Barbi had a bored expression while I was reading the book to find the forest.

"Couldn't we go back to camp? I've been working out some moves for my gym class lately, but I'd love to hear your thoughts." Barbi said with a cheeky smile as the girl thought of some private and spicy moves. But the two of us stopped when we saw Nozomi's necklace started to glow.

In front of us was a huge wall full of vines as well as moss. When I cleared a bit of the moss I was able to read a small inscription that was in an ancient language. However my eyes glowed a mint green hue.

"Those who do not see, knowledge will be given. If you want to know the truth, with mother nature you will have to talk." I said while looking at everything analytically.

"What is this? A riddle?" Barbi asked a little annoyed.

"It's not a riddle. I think I have an idea to get to the sacred forest." I said as I get into a lotus pose next to the rock and close my eyes.

"What are you doing?." Barbie asked in confusion.

"If I meditate. Maybe I can find the sacred forest. The only way is to keep my mind blank and let nature and me unite." I said still with my eyes closed making Barbi stand next to me and do the same.

Time passed. Barbi started to get upset because nothing was happening, the girl just sighed before opening her eyes.

"This is ridiculous, can't we do this tomorrow?" Barbi asked annoyed but she noticed that I wasn't there.


At that moment I felt a huge change in the environment and when I opened my eyes I could see that the forest was now completely different

In front of me now there was a stone path and as I walked I could see that there were tree houses unit with small wooden bridges, beautiful plants and flowers were visible but I could also see that in front of me there was a huge monument to a man who had blindfolded and was in the lotus position.

"I see you're not from around here, brother." I turned to see a teenager. The boy was dressed as a monk, his hair was green and his eyes were blindfolded. No problem, the boy slowly walked over to where I was.

"Who are you?." I asked curiously as the teen was completely calm with a soft smile.

"My name is Yamato. Tell me, what is your name, my brother?" Yamato asked with a soft smile.

"I am Benjamin Escudero." I said looking at the teenager as the boy walked up to stand next to me.

"It has been many years since I last felt the magic of a brother of nature." Yamato said as he got down on his knees and invited me to sit next to him. A gesture that I accepted.

"What happened? Why did you say it was years ago since you last saw someone?" I asked surprised however Yamato despite being calm, his smile disappeared.

"Years ago. Our people were panicked by the threat our leader faced, even though we were willing to fight. The harsh truth is that in reality, everyone was terrified. We are only healers or defenders. We have never used our magic to fight at such levels."

"I decided to train hard not to let my people down even though no one supported me. All the other clans supported me and trained me not to let anyone down. That's why I trained for years and years, for that day." Yamato said as he raised his head.

"Years? How old are you?" I asked surprised making the boy laugh.

"I am many years old. I think it has been ages since I last took my age into account." Yamato said calmly causing me to be shocked.

"You mean you're immortal!? How is that possible!?" I yelled very surprised causing Yamato to raise his hand. I slowly relaxed and sat back down next to the wizard.

"My immortal is a gift from mother nature. She saw me constantly in my training in search of the wisdom and protection of my clan. Then one day, while I was meditating. She spoke to me, and gave me this gift. And thanks to that, I was able to protect my home and my people for centuries." Yamato said as he shows me the statue making me look at the teenager.

"Are you?." I asked surprised making Yamato laugh a little.

"I was once. Even though I became immortal, I had to endure death and birth like many of my loved ones. Despite being immortal, wisdom and knowledge are eternal. It cannot replace human feelings." Yamato said with a bit of sadness.

"I'm sorry to hear that. It must be sad to be the only wizard in this place." I said looking around but Yamato shook his head.

"Actually. You are the last ivy mage, alive." Said the boy causing me to be very surprised.

"Yamato. I don't know if you can answer this but. What happened to all the elementary magicians?" I ask looking at the teenager.

"For many years. I saw many magicians die and many to be born, but the last thing I remember was to fight next to a girl. I think her name was. Nozomi." Yamato said making me remember the girl I met.

"From what I feel, she is merged with you. That means I give her loyalty and trust to you." The wizard said as he seemed to look at me.

"How can I stop the dark magic from approaching?" I asked looking at Yamato with a bit of seriousness.

"If you seek the answer to that question. Then you must talk to Momoyo. She is the leader of the Fire Mage Clan. She may have a bestial temperament, but her fighter's soul knows no end. Her former home is hidden." In the crimson forest, you'll notice when the leaves turn blood-colored." Yamato said before standing up as did I.

"Before you go. I have something to give you." Yamato said before looking at me and shaking her hand making me look at this carefully.

"I want you to merge with me. My soul is with my family, but my spirit and memories will be with you on your journey in search of knowledge to defeat evil." Said the boy as I took his hand and suddenly Yamato's veins turned green and he slowly began to enter me making my eyes turn green for a moment.

"Good luck, Benja. All our ancestors trust that you will succeed in stopping the evil." Yamato said as the place became very bright causing me to cover my eyes.


Barbi was very worried walking from one side to the other when suddenly a strong gust of wind made the girl cover herself but she noticed how some leaves moved in a whirlpool before slowly stopping making me appear still maintaining a lotus pose.

"Benja!!" Barbi then hugged me tightly causing me to open my eyes and see that the girl seemed completely scared.

"Benjamin where the hell were you!? I was so terrified, I didn't know what to do. I didn't know what to tell the girls if you didn't come back. Never disappear again." The rich girl said as she hugged me tighter.

"I'm so sorry Barbi. I guess the only way to get into the forest is to use ivy magic. I didn't want to worry you, I'm really sorry." I said as I hugged the girl making Barbi relax.

"Okay sweetie. But when we get back, you're going to have to make it up to him." Barbi said with a smile making me blush and a little nervous.

We slowly return while I tell Barbi everything about what happened, making the girl very surprised.

"It can't be. If Yamato was immortal by having the ivy element, will you also be immortal?" Barbi asked in surprise causing me to shake my head.

"I don't think so. He told me that mother nature gave him immortality. Yamato and I may be fused now, but I don't think that means I'm immortal now." I said as we both arrived at the camps but at that moment Barbi took my arm making me stop.

"Oh, honey. We're not going to sleep with the others. You and I are going to sleep here." Barbi said as the girl took me to a small secluded spot surrounded by trees.

"Your punishment will be sleeping with me in the same sleeping bag." Barbi said as the girl showed her sleeping bag making me blush but I blushed even more when I saw that the girl took off almost all her clothes leaving her underwear.

"Barbi. But what if someone sees us?" I asked worried but Barbi just giggled.

"Don't worry my love. There are many trees around us. No one will be able to see us." the girl said before making me lay down in the sleeping bag and she would come in quickly making me nervous as she could feel the girl's breasts.

"Come on love. It's unfair that I'm the only one in underwear here." Barbi said in a flirtatious way as she took off my clothes until I was in my underwear.

"It will be better to go to sleep. Tomorrow there are many things to do." I said nervous but I saw that the girl took off her bra and left it with our clothes.

"You're right sweetheart. But first, let me give you something to give you sweet dreams." Barbi said before kissing me making me turn red.

What we both didn't realize was that Jessica was looking at everything from behind a tree with a throbbing vein. The girl was calming down as she clenched her fists tightly in an attempt to control her anger.

"That disgusting bitch, how dare she do this to my husband, in front of me and sleep with him naked when I really should be with him?" Jessica asked angrily but the girl slowly began to calm down as she walked away from the scene.

"Calm down Jess, relax. You need to relax. But don't think that Barbi will be with you tomorrow. The girls have been very close to Benja lately and I think it's time for me to have my own time alone with him." Jessica said with a smile before returning to her sleeping bag.


So far today's chapter. I hope you liked it and I also hope you are enjoying the story so far.
