Chapter 37 - Create

Jun just stood there as he admired the sight which was in front of him. Julius, who had just attained the secret from a secret scrolls and had only used it one previous had managed to gain perfect control over all the blades and willed them to do exactly as he wished. It was exactly as Jun feared, Julius was born with too much talent for his own good. At this point, he wouldn't need to work for a single thing. It was like the heavens handed everything Julius wanted to him in a silver plate. He had been given everything he would ever need.

"So… what should I do with the blades now?" Julius asked as he stood there like he had done nothing special. Seeing this, Jun knew that he would have to take advantage of Julius' oblivious nature and make it so he thinks that he's nothing special, if not less than average so that he works harder.

"You can just deactivate it now. I've seen all I needed. You still need more training. However since I feel bad that you have been experiencing hell for the past few days, how about we head for the 10th kingdom and I'll show you what you have to work with for your future kingdom," said Jun as he both saddened Julius but also manages to motivate him as he would want to take advantage of that motivation and turn it into endless training hours.

"Wait really?! You'll really take me to see the fallen kingdom?" Julius asked in excitement.

"Yes sure, I'm only doing it to show you how much harder you're going to need to work if you really wish to create a kingdom of your own," said Jun as he called upon his jade dragon and leaped on it. As usual, Julius did the same before they could continue their conversation.

"By the way, have you thought of where you're going to get the funding so you can start the construction of your new kingdom?" Jun asked casually.

...

"So no? You haven't even thought that far into how you're going to create a kingdom at which you wish all the people could live comfortable lives?" Jun asked as he sighed.

"How do I even get money like that?" Julius asked as he didn't even know what kind of jobs the world had to offer other than being a king as that was what he had been being trained to become since he was just a child.

"The only way for you to rebuild an entire continent would be for you have all the money which all the 9 kingdoms have in total. But if you were to take that, all the rich people would turn into the people of the dark districts. So instead of helping out everyone, you're just reversing the roles of the kingdom's people and the people of the dark district. I doubt you would want to do that so we're going to have to come up with another plan," said Jun.

"But what other way is there for us to make the money we need? And did you say continent? I thought we were just going after just a kingdom," Julius asked.

"Oh did I not mention that? Well, we're going to go after a continent since the actual kingdom is being guarded. Let me see, I'll explain this to you. Think of our planet as a perfect globe. On top of it, there is a single path of land which makes up 43% of the actual planet while the rest of it is water. That single path of like is like a starfish with 10 legs. Towards the middle of the starfish, there are the 10 kingdoms which all exist in that smaller sector of the planet. However, on the outer legs of the planet is where a whole other civilization lives. I'll explain what those people are to you on another day since I just need to focus on the 10th kingdom for now. Like I was saying, no one is allowed to enter the 10th kingdom but we can go to the continent part of it where no one except people of the dark district from the 10th kingdom live," Jun began to explain.

"But why aren't there people of the other civilizations in there instead? And why aren't they also in our kingdoms?" Julius asked.

"Remember how I told you all magic is band, no matter what the reason is? Well, that's true except for a little part of it. There's one magic spell which still exists to this day. That one is an invisible wall which keeps us and the other civilizations apart. No one except a certain few people know about it. Even some of the great kingdom rules don't know about it. And just so you know, you better not tell anyone what I'm telling you. I'm only informing you of this because if you wish to allow the rebirth of the 10th kingdom, you're going to have to face the force of the other 9 kingdoms. It doesn't matter who you are, even your own father will try to dispose of you if you wish to go on with this plan," said Jun as he tried to test the will of Julius. However, just as he thought, Julius didn't seem the least bit bothered as he knew what he would have to face already.

"Just to make sure, all the rules of the great kingdoms chose to cultivate through battle and those you chose a hybrid of both can only use lower level secret arts right?" Julius asked.

"That's exactly right…" Jun said as he voice trailed off.

"Out of all the many years which I had possession of all the highest tier scrolls, I had never lost a single one of them. Except one. I shouldn't have gotten careless on that day. Maybe then, I wouldn't have to live a life in fear and constant training so that I can finally defeat whoever stole it. However, there is still hope for me…. Julius please grow into a powerful figure in the world and defeat the monster which has control over THAT scroll," Jun said to himself as his face darkened in fear while looking forward so that Julius wouldn't see.
