《A Dryflame Child's Life (Rewriting)》Growing?-5

''Are you really okay?''Asked Stella while gazing at the boy who was patting a wolf's head calmly.''Yes,I too don't know what happened but i'm okay now.''Stella was not looking convinced while Amisi was looking worried.She didn't know what happened.She and Stella were sleeping in the room when Stella woke up,crying.She was baffled but before she could ask,Stella rushed out of her room and got here.
At the enterance of the room Vera was silently looking at them,Thinking alongside Amisi.Her experience was worse after all.All she heard was a shout of ''NO!'' which shook her eardrums and a cold wind lifting her a bit into air.After she got a hold of herself then she understood that it was Deroc.
''Grim,I clearly felt your bloodline disappear for a while.What happened,just tell it''Deroc said Grim with a bit of worry.Even if Stella were to mistaken it,he wouldn't.While he was sleeping a knot suddenly appeared at his heart.There was the image of Grim sleeping soundlessly.Then just darkness.When one's bloodline connection severed,there would be only one meaning,Death.So he just lost control and rushed towards his room with full power.But in his frenzy he forgot that Grim's room was next door so he came later than Stella.
''I mean i too don't know what happened,I just felt like i was floating then falling back to bed slowly.''Grim was also not lying.All he remembered was Arihan talking about the suprise he prepared for him,which he mentioned this morning,then everything went blank.He could only remember a red and blue color which didn't made any sense.
''If-if you are feeling bad,i can he-help you''Vera said from the corner she was standing,within her bear pyjama,with a low voice.''Yeah,Vera knows some healing magic so it may help you''Said Amisi at Stella's side.''It wouldn't bring any harm to try''Said Deroc.Grim nodded towards her.Vera got to his side slowly and opened her palms.She guided the mana towards her finger tips and 10 tiny dots of yellow light appeared on them one by one.

Then putting her fingertips at his head,She slowly transfered the transformed mana into him.To her suprise,he could absorb mana with no resistance.Even though it was tempered,When one used healing magic there would still be a bit of resistance from the body unconsciously.Because of that mass healing spells were only used at military.
After some time,she felt a bit weak so halted it.Grim shook his head a bit then said''Thanks,it relieved me from some pain''Vera just turned around and darted towards her room while saying''I'm going to sleep''She was just embarrassed when interacting people,let alone getting a thanks.She directly threw herself at the bed,put the blanket on herself and buried her head to pillow.
''She is just shy so don't worry''Said Amisi.She and Vera both were 2nd year so they knew each other more.Barak was 1st year while Darius was 4th year,who was graduating after this winter.Even though 3 of them were new,they were considered 1st year rather than preparatory year.
''We shall also go back to sleep.Watch over yourself.''Said Stella then took Amisi's hand and pulled her outside.''Don't forget to ask anything if you need''Said Deroc and left by himself and closed the door.Grim turned his head to look at the wolf licking his hand.'I wonder if brother or father is worried'Then he just patted Conall's head and laid down again.He slowly fall asleep while looking at the white ceiling.
...
''Well,how do you feel?''Asked Arihan while looking at Grim.
''Not too bad,it's just i don't remember anything.''Grim said the truth while looking at Arihan,wondering would he tell the reason.''Just forget it,I'll just recount it to you.The suprise was a scale of mine,for you to forge Spirit Weapon to yourself.I'll explain Spirit weapons later,anways.To create,and bond weapon you had to use your own bloodline as a medium,which was the reason they couldn't sense it for a time.In here you used 12 hours,which is 4 hours at outside world to succesfully Forge it.Still i must say you are pretty much amazing.Maybe i should teach you some Runesmith skills.''

''Runesmith?''Asked Grim'If he is gonna explain them later,than i won't bother to ask him anymore,even if i asked he wouldn't answer it anyway'.What got his attention was the particular name.There were some records of Runesmith name in family's book collection,which is now destroyed completely,but there was no clear explanation about it.
''You know about the Enchanters and blacksmiths already right?''Arihan asked to him.''Yes,enchanters are people who places temporary or permament magics to equipments.Blacksmiths are also obivious,Forging equipments.''Grim said in a fast speed.Arihan nodded and told him:''Right,now people we call Runesmiths are who combines both profession.It's products are strong but there are so few Runesmiths around so it's not preferred.''
''That's it?''Grim was a bit dumbfounded.He was expecting a more spectacular or amazing thing.''You are a bit ignorant huh?Let me give you a example,If a 6th rank were to use normal enchanted weapon,he could only fight with people at his own level.If here were to use a weapon made from Runesmith,he could even fight against a 5th rank standstill.Though his mana will deplete quickly.This is not a problem for you anyway.You have your own spirit weapon now.''
''Now,to summarize it shortly,Spirit weapons are equipments that grows with you.The more higher is your rank,the stronger is the weapon of yours.The more time passes,the more stronger it will be it can't be taken away from the original user or creator.''Arihan then looked at Grim's eyes and said''Now,try to feel it within yourself.You need to be able to call it anytime.''Grim nodded and closed his eyes.
He took a deep breath and placed his legs a bit apart.Even though there were no air in Arihan's place,Grim's long hair started to sway a little bit.The more time passed,The stronger the air current became and at the end,There was a little whirlwind around him.With a last shout,A bright light pillar shot out of his chest and he grasped it immediatly.He shook the pillar of light slowly and it condensed into a simple,iron sword.
''Now,Try to infuse your mana in it.''Grim done just as he was told and to his suprise,This weapon could absorb monstrous amounts of mana from him automatically.You could feed him all time and it still wouldn't be satisfied.4 hours passed like that and this weapon was still hungry for mana.He was absorbing the mana in the surroundings for 4 hours straight.And strangely,he felt as if sword was responsing to him.He stopped infusing mana.
With a last flicker,Sword flew back to his chest,turned into a bright light pillar and fused with him again.''So,how was the experience?''Arihan spoke towards him.''It's very strange,I felt like ı knew it from the moment i was born.Not only that,it was giving the image of a sentient being.''Arihan chuckled and nodded his head in approval.''You are true,they are actually sentient.But not a very intelligent one,all it knows is who is it's master and creator.''
''Our time is up today,I'm feeling sleepy too,so I will send you out now.Just be careful to not show it in front of others.It would just bring you trouble.Anyway,See you later,Little Grim.''Arihan said and severed the connection.He opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed while Conall was sleeping at his side.He patted her head softly to not wake her up,changed his clothes to Academy's Uniform and got out of the room.

I look at the mountain of paperwork before me. I'm overworked. Slowly, my eyes fall shut. I'm so tired of this... A loud 'bang' caused by dropping off another pile of paperwork made me bolt upright. My maid stands before, scorn in her eyes. Annoyed, I wave her away—this is not the first time that that has happened. And she is not the only one who does that. 'Hated by my own people,' I sigh internally and rub my temples. This is not what my 'freedom' was supposed to look like. My eyes hover over the ring on my finger. I tried, you know? Right now, I only want everything to stop. Maybe read some books, eat something delicious, and nap as often as I want to. Wait...I am the matriarch! Hell, I can do whatever I want! Books? I can pocket whole libraries in my domain. Food? Also, in my domain. Naps? Well, there are many cuddly nooks in there. Sooo...my domain has everything I need—dunno why I never thought of this before. All that's left is to relocate its entrance to another totally secret place. How about that hidden forest temple? Yes, let's go with this! Goodbye obligations, goodbye people who always want to take over, goodbye enemies, and at last, good riddance to the council that tries to marry me off to one of these fat ugly narcissistic nobles. Uhh, I just hope nothing will go wrong during my long-term absence. Nahhh, nothing will happen at all; I am totally sure of it...probably. ______ This is the rewrite of the old story: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/273362/seclusion-old-version--dropped/ Alternate Titel: I lived so long in seclusion that everybody forgot about me
