Chapter 305 - Epilogue - Years Down The Lane IV

No one could refute for she had a point.

"What, do they have to be locked down here? There are so many knights out there, are we going to make the children strive only to become knights? To become teachers?"

As she went on, the men could only close their mouths. It was not everyday that Eureka would suddenly point out such things. She would just watch on the sideline most of the time.

When the children would speak of things they wanted to do, she left it to the others to decide.

Even with their eldest child Kazuma, she didn't say anything and left him to follow his own path.

"You know something?" Raven found it weird for her to allow this, even pointing so many things out to them.

Rino and Hideyoshi who was prepared to reject still, closed their lips upon hearing Raven speak.

And seeing the smile in Eureka's face, Raven's question was answered.

"What is it?" Rino then questioned seriously.

"Aren't you curious brother? A world would only house this much people?" Eureka asked seriously.

The three young men was also silent, their parents told them that Eureka always know something not one of them knew. She would suddenly reveal it at the least expected moment.

And they were actually experiencing it right now.

"What of it?"

"What I'm trying to say is that, somewhere across the ocean there are more we haven't seen."

"Here we go again, Eureka I'm begging you. I really can't follow up with the way your mind works," Hideyoshi complained.

"What I'm saying is what these kids want. Allow them to venture out, venture to those places not one of us have been to. And learn more things for the benefit of everyone."

"It's not that easy, the boat and directions. There's so many things that should be considered. We can't just send the children into the unknown," Rino still reasoned out.

"That's why I'm telling you it is not an unknown. I have witnessed it myself, that there are lives out there. Lives across the ocean we never thought was there."

"How?"

"Reset, when I used reset I was actually able to see the world as a whole and witnessed more people living away from this land."

The three men looked at her flabbergasted, how long has it been since she used Reset? Yet she was only saying this now?

Shouldn't she atleast have told them of such existences before?

"I was also preparing, after getting rid of all those rebels. Do you think I was just looking around? Of course not, I am trying to learn and experiment on a way to venture out to the sea."

Raven came to a realization, all these years. There are times where she would stay out in the shore or the cliffs. There are times she spent her whole day within the library.

There are times she spent her whole day, among the inventors.

"Why didn't you spoke of it earlier then? We could have helped you you know," Rino couldn't help but to question his sister's mind that loves doing things on her own.

"I knew of their existense but I didn't want to raise an uproar. I want to make sure of everything, that things are possible before telling all of you this."

She then walked close and placed her hand on top of Keitaro's head.

"I just didn't expect that my son would have the initiative to know of it. Even your children tagged along, why not let them do as they please?"

The three men sighed. She had always been like this after all, instead of asking help by divulging some information, she'd rather do everything on her own.

And currently, they could no longer find it to themselves to get mad at her for not saying anything about it. Despite it being something that was a national topic.

"I didn't say it just because I didn't want an uproar. I know of its importance, there are after all people out there whom we can trade with. But it seems that this big piece of land..."

She first trailed off before looking outside the window, then she once again looked back at them.

"Is separated by a wall of rocks to the other parts of the world. And in order for us to get past those walls, multiple preparations are to be done."

Confusion appeared on the faces of all six of them who are listening to her.

"I told you, I have seen it when I used reset. The world as a whole and when I indeed used it, I saw them but didn't feel anything coming from them."

"Are you saying that they have no abilities? Isn't that a bit out of logic?" Rino couldn't help but ask upon hearing all these.

"With abilities surrounding us back then, is logic really important?"

Her question has a point.

She became the first dual ability user. Their timeline have evolved the abilities to a new level ones.

During Azuma's time, the abilities they used were different. Those born with abilities could be equiped by those born with none.

It seems that every change would bring so many things and the change to their timeline this time was not just about their abilities no longer present but they found out that there are more people out there.

Keitaro and the other two were the most shocked to this. They didn't expect that their dream could come to fruition. That they would really meet more people if they venture out to the sea.

"Don't look too happy now, you will need more preparations than those who are planning to be a part of the squad."

She then looked at Rino, "Why not give this mission to them? A mission to connect to the other lands."

"You know, once you speak. I sometimes question if I really am capable enough to be the king. I think you should be the one in here instead of me," Rino replied exasperatedly.

The look in the three young men's face when she told them to prepare and that this mission would be given to them, was pure excitement and that it was already set in stone.

Like his rejection would no longer be accepted.

Eureka smiled, "I don't want such troublesome position."

After this day, a few trials were set to know who will join the other three to this mission. Eureka have also disclosed the design she came up with for a bigger ship.

The normal boats were used for fishing after all and not for long distance travelling.

She also came up with a way to determine the direction they are going to once in the ocean. Something she came up with, with the inventors of the kingdoms.

For Keitaro, it felt like his mother have prepared everything for him.

"I didn't know, maybe I had the feeling already?" was her answer when he asked.

Two years passed by once again before they were finally ready to venture out across the ocean. Feena and Karen were already spoken to by Eureka, so the fathers no longer have a way to reject.

"The bird was trained for a very very long distance travel. Was also trained to listen to a whistle in order to return to you. As for it to come here, well this is its only destination anyway so it'll find its way here no matter how far."

Keitaro was once again amazed by his mother. She really did took everything into consideration before giving this mission to them.

Quite a lot of people came to bid them goodbye, the ocean was closest to Aurora Kingdom after all. So only letters of goodbyes were sent from the other three kingdoms.

"Get out there and find your own adventure," Eureka then said to the three of them.

"Who knows, our daughter-in-law might come from there as well," she added causing the three men to react negatively.

Raven placed his arms around her shoulders, "Do you really just felt it? That this will be the choice of your son?"

"I already told you, I am not that amazing, this is just a feeling back then that is why I prepared."

She had her own adventures back then, not just around this land but to the other world as well.

When she gave birth to Keitaro, a feeling suddenly blossomed in her heart.

She was already checking the matter about the other lands before then but upon laying her eyes at Keitaro, she suddenly became determined to find a way to venture out there.

They watched the ship as it slowly shrinked in size until it could no longer be seen.

"Somehow, someday I can feel that, that little brother of mine will make a name for himself," Kazuma commented beside his parents.

Raven and Eureka nodded in agreement. They felt sad but they knew this is where his fate lies. He was born to venture out to the other lands.

"What are you doing there Akane? Your parents would be searching for you soon. It is the day of the light after all, the day to rejoice we are still with our family," a girl with shoulder length black hair called out.

The lady named Akane has waist length purple hair with light purple eyes. She was standing by the shore seemingly watching something from afar.

After hearing her name being called she looked towards the girl, "Sorry I just felt like something is coming. Shall we go, Hana?"

A year and a half past and a ship docked to their land.
