It was always a mysterious thing how time pa.s.ses by.It was now the day Ned was going on his journey. And also the day he officially finished his second year in this world.
Physically he didn"t have many changes. His height was still the same, but his face matured a bit more. As for his body, his muscles were well toned with hard rock abs.
His relationship with Lori had finally reached the part where they had s.e.x. They both grew confident and enjoyed the bonding.
His love for her, helped him a great deal in getting past his grieves, and so with renown motivation he made huge improvements in his training.
He reached rank 6. He was now close to becoming the strongest ever. But still he knew from Eline that the humans weren"t what he should measure his strength with.
He mastered the three steps of Hermes. He can now use teleportation quite easily if the distance isn"t too far.
His magic when he reached rank 6 grew exponentially. So much that even had visited him because of it.

As she was at that time only using telepathy to talk to him. So she didn"t need to come down and according to her, she enjoyed being lazy.
The reason for that increase though was the reward he had got.
The truth was that his magic had grew that much only when he had already broke through and received his rewards.
It was a mysterious object shaped in a crystal tear.
His whole rewards were things like gold, and an increase in level of his weapon and armors. But the most important was the tear.
[Essence of mana: can increase mana in the body. With every rank broken through it would double the mana. (Fuses with the heart, strengthening it)]
With this he suspected that he had enough mana to rival a peak rank 8.
Now he was sure that he can travel to any place in this continent. However he would need to reach rank 7 to teleport to other continents.
Well at least he could visit Lori and the old man.
Another thing was how it strengthened his heart, and he now was able to take a critical hit to the heart but still don"t die as he was told by Emmy.
When Eline showed up to see why she felt the huge surge in mana, he lied and told her that when he broke through this had happened. Even if he felt bad for lying to her, he had to at the moment.
She said that he must have something unique about his body, but didn"t otherwise bother him about it.
His mastery of the sword reached an all time height. He was now capable of fighting the old man and besting him when he is limiting his rank to 7.
This basically spoke of how powerful he was becoming.
As for his all his types of magic he mastered it enough so that he can turn his hands to the said element up into the elbow. While previously it only reached his wrists.
This was an advancement but he wasn"t satisfied with it. As elemental body was meant for the whole body, while he was making small improvements.
Still he was now powerful enough to survive.
Eline wouldn"t be coming with him, but instead will follow him stealthily. At least until they reach the forest.
They were heading to the forest of secrets first as Eline said that it is the place that is most filled with secrets and adventures in the human continent.
He would be able to teleport there, ad he had been in that place for a long time. His technique wasn"t all powerful, as it limited him to the places he had visited before.
It was time for the day that he wanted to avoid at any costs.
The day of goodbye.
He found the old man and Lori sitting at the table in the dinning room, waiting for him.
The old man had that same kind smile he had on his face the first time they met.
While Lori, was smiling too, even if her eyes were a bit red, probably due to crying.
The old man motioned for him to sit.
"come eat with us. We will see you off with a smile and a family meal." Alaster said with a smile.
And Ned did eat with them, and pacified Lori.
"I will visit at least one time per week don"t worry. And for the other day we can talk telepathically"
Lori nodded her head at him. "Yes, don"t worry I am okay, I"m just going to miss you" She said with a smile and bit of sadness in her voice.
The rest of the dinner went by just like that. And once he bid them farewell he quickly teleported to the forest, as he wasn"t a fan of sad goodbyes.
Now he was in the forest, precisely at the cave he was living in before.
Eline soon joined him levitating a bit off the ground.
With him mastering wind and gravity magic, he could practically fly off too now. But he too just levitated next to her. But a bit lower in order to match her height.
And she wasn"t surprised as she had even saw him fly before.
