Few minutes went by when John was laying on grass talking to Leo, Leo with his childish energy stood up and started running around John. "Well, you are waiting for me to get stronger so I am going to train to become so strong that I can protect you on my own big brother!".
John giggles "Oh, not in my watch I am not letting you become stronger than me Leo, each time you think you are reaching me I will crush you again and be stronger than you, and protect you like a little prince." Mocking Leo.
And by so they start playing tag with each other. In meanwhile Alina went to her room looking for the right book for John she promised to give.
Inside her room there is a small area with a fake floor right behind the enter to the right.
As she pulls a old and damaged by time book about the character the master traveler named "Ibn Battuta "and the book of his journey titled "the Rihal" finished year 1355.
As she grabbed the worn by time book "the Rihal" she found inside her secret spot I piece of paper as she picked it up she remembered that this piece of paper was with John when he was a baby, his real parents left it and it says "Name is John, my parents had to give me away, you are the only person who can rise him… thank you, keep him safe, and away from danger. We love mom and dad." …. Alina unknown what she should do with this piece of paper, should she throw it, she should give it to John or pretend she never saw it.
She decided to put it on fate and on John and puts that paper in the middle of the book. Then she calls for Lina to bring John to her room.
John enters the room, "Yes mom you called for me?"
"Yeah, John I found the right book for you, and something else…"
"What is the other thing you found mom?"
She hands him them book then hugs him, "What ever the future is hiding for us you will always be my son John."
"I know mom you proved it so many times now" and hugs her tight.
"Now take this book and as always live inside it learn from its main character and you shall be ready to go on your own if you want to."
"Alright! Understood mom, am going to start reading as soon as possible."
And by this John goes to Leo see him what he is up to do and let him know that he is going to start reading the book Alina gave him, "hey Leo mom gave me the book so you better start training seriously, if you needed help you can ask me or go to Francis am sure he will help."
"Sure, Brother good luck with your book."
John after that start walking inside the forest to find a quite spot since he becomes the leader of the village every salesman and shop relocated themselves to be closer to his home which made it loud for him to focus on the visualising the book.
Leo in the meanwhile went to Francis house, "Hello brother Francis!"
"Oh, hello Leo, come in I will introduce you to my family."
And he pulls Leo to enter his house, "everyone Rose, Arthur and Sicilia come over here we have a guest."
"Oh a guest here I am" says Rose.
"WE ARE COMING FATHER!" Arthur and Sicilia scream from their room.
"You remember guys when I told you about Leo, and he is part of our big family now, now here I present to you Leo himself, this is Rose my wife, and my two kids Arthur and Sicilia. "Says Francis with joy in his eyes.
"Hello ma'am, my name is Leo, and I am happy to be here introducing myself to you and your kids." Leo with formal tone.
"Come on Leo no need for formalities we are family right, don't worry." Replied Rose.
"Yeah man we are welcoming you here to play with us me my name is Arthur and here is my sister Sicilia. And we must agree on one thing. We will protect Sicilia with all what we got man deal?" jumped Arthur in between with serious tone.
"Yeah, for sure Arthur I will protect my little sister and my little brother with everything I have." Leo matches his energy to Arthur's.
"So, Leo, what brought you to our house? "Francis interrupted them.
"Yeah, I want to be strong before John finishes his new book so he can take me with him big brother, and you are the only one who know how to." Answered Leo.
"Hmm okay, I will train you but not so you can go with John, I will train you so you can survive on your own and protect my kids when needed, deal?"
"DEAL!" replied Leo with fire in his eyes.
"Can I join father??" asked Arthur
"Yeah, you definitely can we will start tomorrow since today I have some clients waiting for me to visit them."
"Thank you, Francis, now I will go back to John's house to rest a little bit it's getting close to set."
Leo takes the shortest way to reach back to his new house.
"Have you seen John?" Leo asked Lina.
"No, but I think he went in the forest to read the book he should be back home soon do not worry." Answered Lina.
----------go to John-----------
While John searching for a nice spot to sit and started reading, he was checking the cover and how damaged by time effect on it, on the cover it, "THE MASTER TRAVELER IBN BATTUTA'S JOURNEY".
"Oh no wonder mom wanted me to read this book; it's about a traveler and what he faced." Talked to himself John.
Few steps later John find a steady rock to sit with an empty area letting the wind hit John freely.
As John opens the first page of the book, he reads the character introduction
- "Ibn Battuta, a traveler who left his home at 21 and didn't return for 30 years. He waled desert, crossed oceans, served sultans, and survived plagues. HE DIDN'T CONQUE. HE CONNECTED."-.
