Once the Six entered the Singing Siren Adam looked around and saw people singing and dancing. They were singing songs he had never heard.
Ralingar sat down at a large wooden table along with Adam and the rest of the group except for Jason who went to the bar and got drunk.
While Ralingar was talking to Luke and Victor about different Folklore in Tylingariea. Adam, Kai'la, and Nina watched Jason as he became drunker and drunker. " If that fool does not stop, he will be do something stupid," Adam said to Kai'la and nodded her face serious as she spoke with plainly " do you want me to kill him to prevent his stupidity? I can make it quick." Kai'la said as Adam could feel intense hostile aura emitting from Jason. But did not think that killing Jason was the appropriate course of action.
"No, thank you but we will keep you on standby." Ralingar said as he stood up and began to walk towards Jason, Kai'la pulled Ralingar back as she felt the malice emitting from Jason " what?!" Ralingar asked as Adam spoke calmly " hold on" .
Adam could feel it to the air had grown stiff and still, Adam could see a pulsing red aura engulfing . Jason was talking nonsense to random people Jason was about to buy his third drink when a firm hand grasped his shoulder and a cold voice said: " Jason, after all of these years I have you now." Jason turned around and saw a tall man wearing a crisp white jacket his hair was dark blue and slicked back
. He had dark blue eyes that were the color of the sea.Jason who was drunk as could be so no danger in this man and said calmly but he also said it stupidly as he tried to stand but fell to the floor instead " who are you?" the man grabbed Jason by the throat and cried out " you drunk fool I am the am your archrival!"
everyone was looking at the two men who seemed to know each other Jason laughed as he said " oh I remember you! You're that captain. Now, what was his name? it started with an L?"the man punched Jason in the stomach and said: " my name is Logan Miles and I have come for my revenge for what you took from me." Jason then said, " what you want to kill me for taking your wife, then killing her and then taking your heart."
Logan drew a blade and said darkly " now I will take not only your heart but your head." With lighting fast reflexes Kai drew a knife a tossed it at Logan impaling him in the shoulder he fell to the floor screaming" I will end you Jason Blackheart for killing my wife!"
Jason stood over Logan and said, " no I am afraid you will not be killing me." he drew his sword and an arc of black light emitted from his blade. "I know why you came here. you came in search of immortally." Logan tried to respond but could not speak a massive gash had formed in his stomach. Logan reached his hand out and said weakly as he coughed up blood " Jason I know that you are seeking it as well together we can be immortal and be the most powerful pirates in the universe."
Jasons eyes arched with black lighting as he spoke coldly his voice dripping with malice " You are benth me." his sword and thrust his sword into Logan's head killing him instantly. Everyone except for Jason snuck of the Singing Siren once they were outside the group found Jason under a large tree eating a green apple.
Jason asked Ralingar "so where are we going now?" Ralingar then pulled his sword on Jason and quickly Jason pulled his Eon Longsword out the air sparked with condensed Mano-Teki as the two blades struck each other. Jason's eyes were locked onto he Vermilion Blue Draconighteon Steel Eon Longsword in awe as he deflected each blow effortlessly" So i see you were a Bladewalker Ralingar. I thought your kind all died out in the 3rd Age of Darkness. When the Warriors of Farcry sealed away Lupine Riddle."
Ralingar glared at Jason and said coldly " you know the kind of person I hate the most is a person who will do anything get what he wants even kill and you're that kind of person."
Jason spat blood on the ground and said darkly, " you don't know that, because you don't know me, and I don't know you." Ralingar put his blade up and asked for the map.
Ralingar looked at map showed witch showed a large peak in the shape of a horn in the western Kingdoms
Ralingar noded and spoke calmly to the others "it seems that the first ring of Light is in the Hades Horn in the Western Kingdoms.
The road to the Hades Horn is bumpy so we will need horses."
Ralingar led them to a nearby horse owner.he gave them four horses; Jason did not need a horse because he had his own. once everyone was on their horse Ralingar got onto his horse with was a black Valoregareon the fastest horse in Tylingariea.
A huge gust of wind blew from the south and with it can a magical knapsack with a note attached inside was a magical map Ralingar read the note that said, " this map will lead you to my realm." Ralingar gave the map to Adam and said: " we will end up going to his realm eventually but now our quest is to find the Rings of Light."
Adam asked Ralingar " where is the Hades Horn?" Ralingar replied as he led them out of the city" it is in the Western Kingdom of Deltariea. Which is not too far from here. That is where my girlfriend Cailly the Last Ring crafter lives, and she will supply food and shelter for us until we get the Ring of Fire. She will tell you more about the Rings of Light and the Rings of Darkness."
The Six followed Ralingar as he led them westward toward the Kingdom of Deltariea
Ralingar lead them though the fields of the Haven a farmland area that held many of the agricultural areas in Tylingariea. Adam rode up beside Ralingar and asked him calmly " I was wondering is Tylingariea a single kingdom or is it divided into multiple realms."
Ralingar stopped and by a large overlook " here seems to be a good spot to stop for now. Evening approaches and I should explain more about Tylingariea and its layout. " Ralingar said as he and Victor started to make a makeshift campsite.
Once the campsite was site up Victor, Jason, Adam and Luke sat together while Nina read the journal she was given and Kai'la was meditating.
Ralingar took out the map and placed it in front of them " The World of Tylingariea is not like that of Earth. Tylingariea is but one region of a vast interconnected spiderweb of regions, kingdoms and in the center is Vermillion City." Ralingar motioned to a vast monlich city that stood omninusly in the center of the map.
Adam looked at Ralingar and asked " is that were Zargorwarth the Demon Lord is?" Ralingar shoke his head " no the bloodline that resides there is the Vermillion Bloodline and The current ruler Ezra Vermillion is feared more then Zargorwarth the Demon Lord."
Adam was in awe that there could be a being far stronger then Zargorwarth the Demon Lord even though he had yet to see his power firsthand.
Jason pointed to the region together the north that was surrounded by massive craggy peaks " Whats over there?" Jason asked Ralingar who thought for a moment considering his response after a few minutes Ralingar spoke calmly
" That is the Region of the Vamper'eons and the master Lord Nos'fer'atu Ash'shin'dar. It is best we leave them be the Vamper'eons and the Vi'ha'ree who reside there don't have any interest in our problems." Ralingar paused and thought then said " we should pray that we don't need them to intervene."
Victor noded in agreement " the last time the Vamper'eons and the Vi'ha'ree made a alliance anyone was in the First Age of Draco Dra'ghoul during the War of the Divine One and many from all races died during that war. Not to mention the creation of the first Divine Blood Lupine Riddle."
Luke and Adam were very confused not sure what this had to do with the current quest at hand and Jason had tuned everything out enitery. Ralingar looked at Victor and said " They don't need to know about that right now your overwhelming them"
Victor stopped seeing he was overwhelming them with knowledge of things that don't understand " sorry I didn't mean to" Victor said
" its ok Victor" Adam said kindly but Adam did have a few questions that he was pretty sure only they could answer
Adam looked at Ralingar and asked nervously " I do have some questions like i don't know what Mano-Teki is and how you can do these amazing abiltys." Luke and Nina also had the same question. Jason was not paying attention probably he already knew and Kai'la stepped forward
" It is because Ralingar, Jason, Victor and myself can use Mano-Teki ( magic) " Kai'la said as Ralingar motioned for her to sit down " Yes technically all living things have the capacity to use Mano-Teki. With includes Humans, Demon, Dracoverins, Vamper'eons and anything else that has a soul."
Adam was interested in this and asked " how can a person use Mano-Teki and what are the different kinds?" Ralingar sighed and said " that is a complex question to answer because Mano-Teki is broken into countless different subcategories so telling you all of them would be impossible.
But how a person can use Mano-Teki depends i am able to use Mano-Teki because I was born on Tylingariea witch gives me a direct connection to the Multiverse Tree so I can use different kinds of Mano-Teki easily. I would assume that Victor, Kai'la and Jason are the same. But don't worry you will be able to obtain the ability to use Mano-Teki during our quest."
This made Adam feel a little more at ease and excited him a bit. Kai'la spoke up
" I should explain the overall concept of Mano-Teki and how it works." Kai'la paused and spoke in a calm and composed voice " Every living thing is made of the seven different parts of Mano-Teki and the type and strength of the Mano-Teki your able to use depends on the strength of these different parts. Many pepole have one or more of these that are stronger and weaker then the other.
Its impossible to now what kind of Mano-Teki a person is going to be able to use. It is possible that if someone is stronger in more then one of these parts they can use multiple kinds of Mano-Teki.
These parts are connected to the fire aspect of Mano-Teki
1: Naishin a persons real intentions, inner thoughts
2:Ketsui is a persons determiion
3: Shinzo is a persons heart
These parts are connected to the water aspect of Mano-Teki
4:Sei is a persons life force
The 5th part is Karada the part that repsents the Body and is connected to the aspect of air
The 6th part of Mano-Teki is Yochi that represents the aspect of Earth
The final part is a persons Chikara that shows a persons power.
The 7th part of Mano-Teki is a persons Kikotsu ( spirit) that drives them in battle." Kai'la finshed and the others nooded they sort of understood what she told them.
Ralingar saw there somewhat confused faces and said " when its the time I will train each of you on how to use Mano-Teki." Adam was ok with this response
