《The thought of peace》Chapter – 20 The Free Island nation tour
Advertisement
The next morning when Ray woke up, he saw everyone sitting in his room looking shocked.
Ray:(to his inner self) What happen overnight? Did my condition get so bad that they can't even look at me now? I don't want any more injuries and sickness because I will die in a few days and if I got more hurt I have to spend the rest of my time resting in bed waiting for my death instead of searching for a way to defeat Regan and his men.
Then suddenly Edward and Liam who were not present in the room barge in and tightly hug Ray while crying.
Liam:(sobbing) Sir a miracle happened due to her divine grace [Truth] and all your wounds which you received during your Torture have gone.
Edward:(also sobbing) Even your eye is back in its shape just like it used to look before that incident.
Ray:(shocked) Wait a minute. I can now see with both of my eyes.
Then Ray suddenly burst into tears and everyone decided to leave him alone instead of Miller because he wants to talk to Ray about something.
Miller:(nervous) How are you feeling? Are your fingers and eyes feel real?
Ray:(surprise) I am not sure what you mean by this. You can ask me straight ahead what you wanted to know.
Miller:(terrified) It looks like Youkai broke into the hospital at midnight and kill all the guards.
Ray:(trying to stay calm) Then why didn't he kill me. Wait for a second... Don't tell me Youkai is the one who heals my injuries.
Miller:(unable to speak) I am afraid that's the case but the magic he used has lost its effect after healing your arm and we are sure it won't cause you to lose your consciousness to him.
Ray:(angry) Shit...Shit...Shit...Shittttt!!!! Why does he have to be the one who heals me? Why is God doing this to me? Looks like I have no other choice but to hurt myself by gouging out my eye and na-

Miller:(loudly) Pull yourself together Ray. We have to use you to our advantage which the enemy gave us. With your injuries heal and your body's not weak anymore you can fight like an average person.
Ray:(calmly) You are right I will take down Regan and his men with this perfect body of mine. Just wait for me Youkai Nakayama.
After discussing about whether to take Ray with them to Tubo-Dinor most of them decided to take Ray because now he is in a better condition than before. They all leave for a port town on the eastern side of Ying and from there they go to Tubo-Dinor by ship. Ray was pretty excited about the trip
Ray:(excited) When I was a little mother always told me that Tubo-Dinor was a fascinating place. The people there have good moral values and a high sense of living.
Beta: There you are, Ray. I have been looking all over for you.
Ray:(surprised) Do you want something from me?
Beta:(excited) Yes, I want to cross blades with you.
Ray:(confused) Huh!
Beta:(smiling) Now you are healthy and fine I want you to learn swordsmanship to protect yourself from the enemy. I know you are not the main fighter but at least you can protect yourself or you will hold everyone back in a fight.
Ray:(serious) If I think about it now. I have never been useful to all of you. I always need someone to protect me but if I die now my brother's sacrifice would end up in vain and as long as I live I won't let that happen. I have responsibility on my back and I am not gonna run away from it.
Beta:(with a grin) That's the spirit. You may be Old but you have a heart of a young man.
Ray:(pissed off) I am only 27 and that's not old age. I have a whole life ahead of me and what is your age may I ask?
Beta:(nervously) 23.
Ray:(laughing) Looks like you are also an Old man like me.

When they were halfway from their destination the ship stopped at a small island for some rest. The island was a free city and was not a part of any four countries but it was governed by its independent counsel. For the security of the island, they have a treaty with Ying to protect them from any other nation. When they arrive there, they saw some of the council members waiting for their arrival because Akasuki gives a message to the council that some diplomats from our country are going to visit Tubo-Dinor so, they are going to stop awhile at the island. Then all of them were taken to a hotel where they rest a bit and after a while, they all head out for some sightseeing. While they roamed around the city, they saw a soldier bulling normal citizens for money
Soldier:(drunk) Hey, you old pops give me your money or I will kill you.
Old man:(terrified) I have nothing left and you have already taken plenty of my money yesterday.
Soldier:(angry) Quit your whining, Old man. [Then the soldier took out his sword to kill the old man]
Beta:(angry) I guess harassing the citizens you meant to protect is the worst crime a soldier can commit.
Then the soldier who was bullying people turned around and then drop it on the ground and puked on the ground.
Beta:(surprise) Gross!!!
Then Ray’s party came to know that the soldier was drunk from drinking too much and got all his money spent. Then his comrades took the drunk soldier back to the garrison and after that Ray's party continue their sightseeing. After a couple of hours roaming here and there, they got split up because Beta, Delta, Jacob, Frey, Donovan, Bruce, Miguel, Eric and Markus wanted new weapons, while Martha, Emma and Selene wanted to go shopping. The third group which wanted to continue sightseeing contains Ray, Edward, Liam, Miller, Alpha, Steve and Rin.
Then Ray’s group decided to go near the mountain and do some hiking, after walking for hours they reach the destination and saw some kidnappers hiding their faces were taking some people up the mountains with a blindfold on their eyes so, after seeing them the third group decided to follow the kidnappers and rescue the people from their hands. Then after following for a while the climbing became harder for Steve so, they decided to let Steve, Liam and Miller go to the local police and tell them about the situation. Then after following their trail for a while, they all saw kidnappers going inside a cave. Then after a while, they decided to barge in because going inside from any other area is nearly impossible so, Rin burst open the door with his explosive magic and Alpha and Edward quickly went inside to take out any enemy guards at the gate and in a minute all the guards on the inner side of the gate were wiped out but a guard survived by hiding behind the wooden boxes inside the gate and then he shot Ray in his left arm. Then Alpha in a blink of an eye cut him into two pieces. After half an hour their rescue mission got completed with no casualties but Ray still got hurt in the end. When Ray got hurt, he got suddenly taken by Rin to the nearest doctor. Then everyone got the news about how Ray and the others saved many people from being kidnapped. The next day, the third group got a public honour from the council. All of them received a large sum of money because the kidnappers were spreading the crime on the island for a long time and because of their lack of military weapons and soldiers they were unable to take them down. Then after a week of recovery and with the help of healing magic Ray got well again and they departed on their journey to Tubo-Dinor.
