Chapter 58: My journey to the academy (2)

"Magnus, have you packed everything that you need?" my mother asked for the hundredth time before we set off to the academy.

"Yes mother, for the hundredth time. Stop worrying about these small details. I can just buy at the academy if I have forgotten anything", I replied to her.

She just smiled and rubbed my head.

"Mom, you are disturbing my hair again", I said to her.

Man, every time. I have to comb properly and then she would change its structure. I am not thrilled to comb my hair again and again.

She didn't say anything but hugged me.

Sigh!

Mothers were never good at saying goodbyes to their children.

She knew pretty well that once I left today, there would be fewer and fewer interactions between us. Yes, with the development of the world, there are Mobile phones and we can speak with each other daily but that is not easy.

We would have our own schedules and it would not be easy to speak with each other.

She has seen this four times before me but each time there was another child to take care of at home and she didn't feel that much but with me it was different. There were no children after me. So once I leave, there would be no children at home for her to take care of.

She knew about this matter when I went on an adventure in the wild for almost seven months.

Even if she knew about the matter beforehand, it was still not easy to say goodbye. From now onwards we can only meet each other when I have holidays and that would be in the first two years of the academy. Returning home would be less and less from this point.

The longer the distance, the more discomfort one would feel. So it was advised not to be used frequently. The advice applies to the commoners especially.

Not every person in the kingdom can awaken their profession and can rank up. Many fail and many wouldn't have the resources to grow even after they awaken. So a lot of people stay at Tier-0 or Tier-1 their entire lives.

They don't have enough strength to survive the turbulences of the space.

It was discovered that passing through a spatial tunnel would cause changes in the body. It was space magic and could be considered similar to other types of magic attacks. Though the attacks are light and considered passive, going through the process a few many times would not result in a good outcome.

After entering the teleportation hub, my father went straight to Room 12.

"Royal Capital for two", my father said to the operator and gave a sack of gold coins to him. I have no idea how much it was but my estimation was that it cost a thousand gold each at minimum. I should learn the transportation costs and other costs of living in this world or else I would be duped at every corner.

the operator opened the sack and counted the coins within seconds, "Stand in the teleportation circle and close your eyes", he said.

I could feel the energy fluctuations around me. The teleportation has started. I can feel it because of my connection to the Space element. The energy fluctuations have the presence of Space Element in them.

A few minutes later, the fluctuations started to subside.

I heard someone speaking, "You can open your eyes".

I slowly opened my eyes and saw that we were still standing in a teleportation circle that was inactivated in a similar room that we were in before but I knew that we were no longer in Winter City.

Royal City, I have arrived.
