After waking up, the first thing he saw was shadow's face above him, he closed his eyes again and it take him a few seconds to realized he was on shadow's lap.

”Master? how you came here?”

She was stroking his hair as she said.

”Me? This is just a avatar i send to search for you. When i had find you, you were sleeping in a cocoon and a had to wait three years before you...”

Elijah was imediataly scarred.

”Wait master, you said Three years!?”

Shadow sighed. ”Yeah. i said three years, now say what happened to you that make we lose our conection.”

...

After Shadow's avatar had disapeared after reactivating their conection.

For a few days he had to hunt his own meal, which made him more experienced.

Elijah was in the woods when he heard several wolves approaching him.

he threw his hammer flying in circles, defeating all the wolves around him.

”Kid, did you train enough for now, your cousin is around, go find him to take you back home. Do not you want to see your parents? Just remember not to tell anyone about what you do said.”

His eyes lit up.

”Realy, can I go now?”

”Yes, you can go back now.

...

Elijah's grandfather, Luke, was sitting in his chair and having his lunch while staring at his family's

forest from the window.

It's been three years since Elijah and Chloe went missing in thetreasure hunt. They sent several groups to look for them, but nothing was found.

Chloe's brother, Noah is still searching for them every day off. now he has been promoted to external sector director at the Royal Academy, he only needs to work twice a week giving enough free time to cultivate and search for his sister and cousin.

Even though he was not so close to Elijah, he could still see the look in his sister's eyes every time she saw him, and because of the sadness he saw on his parents eyes everyday, he was determined to find them both.

also one year ago the king had died and within the govern of the new king, he dicided to pass his title to his elderst son and since them he has been resting in house before the war begin, now that the Briles Kingdom was preparing a army to atack the Thunder Hammer Kingdom, it's only a question of time to the beging of a war.

...

It was late afternoon when Luke saw two silhouettes emerging from the forest.

At first, he thought it was only Noah, but after the silhouettes continued to approach, he finally recognized who it was. Luke got up quickly and ran out of the Mansion.

Beside Noah he could see a young boy, with delicate features, a black hair, and thoughtful grey eyes. He had a look of wariness that he gained after having meeted a few magic beasts and knowing the price of lack of caution. But seeing his grandpa he released a smile of amused friendliness and pleasure which could arouse feelings of warmth, and something more, in many women.

”Grandpa!” Elijah jumped giving him a hug.

Luke was still surprised to see his grandson, who had disappeared for three years returning like this, but he was so happy that he just returned Elijah's embrace without thinking of anything else.

he looked at Noah and asked. ”Noah, how did you find him? and where is Chloe?”

Noah responded. ”I don't know, it was him who had found me, and from what young cousin said my little sister had already escaped there three years ago.”

Elijah finally remembered something he needed to do.
