long journey

 The old butler steps into the building the sounds of the cold wind whistled in the air, the courtyard was messy due to the air pressure caused by the consecutive break through, while the leaves scattered all about in the air slowly dropped, but if one where to observe closely, the leaves closer to the point of the explosion were torn into pieces with smooth edges as if left by a sharp blade, the building where the young master resides where in shambles, in the middle of it all a young boy who looks to be in his mid-teens slowly floated down, his skin was as white as snow while his black hair like silk fell unto his shoulders his body was naked as he slowly floated down, has his feet touched the ground his leg exerted pressure on the floor leaving cracks behind, taking another step on the floor he footprint deep by the third step he left no footprint his aura was slowly withdrawn as it fell from the spirit actualization stage to the body tempering fourth stage, anyone aside from an expert will think that this is a bad thing, but the old butler nodded at the young master wise action, though it looked like his break through was perfect but in fact his foundation was not solid and his level might fall during a battle but by dropping one cultivation now it will increase one's battle strength when one break through later the only downfall might be the need for a larger amount of energy when one break through in the future.

   later that night

 In an inn located in the outskirts of clear spring city.

"Young master, I have prepared a carriage for the journey ahead of us "

The old butler bows slightly after speaking.

Galahad looks outside the window, as winter arrives the street are more desolate

"You will not be following me Hendrick all I need is a spatial pouch to put some clothes, a sword preferably a tachi and put some gold in it not too much just enough for me to eat and afford a place to stay, now relay my words to my father I shall rest here in preparation for my journey"

Seeing the young master firm look the old butler bows down slightly then takes his leave without saying anything. Looking at the retreating old man Galahad looks outside the window and stretches his hand outside, a snowflake drops right on his palm, retracting his hands he sits down as he slowly tempers his body awaiting the old butler return.

Night time Deep inside the braymhch family residence, inside the family head residence.

"Was that my son words"

A man covered in a red robe looks at the old butler kneeling in front of him as he questions him.

"Yes my lord, it is exactly what the young master said to me, I reported to you"

The room was a silent for a while

"Do exactly what he said then don't bother sending anyone to protect he probably has countermeasures for that too just make sure he makes it to the next teleportation portal without any issue, you said he wants a tachi sword right, a nice choice as expected of my son, give him a spatial pouch it space has to be big as a room as for his daily necessities like clothes I'll leave that to you and also give him 1000gold I can't let the heir to my braymhch family live while counting every little change with him, that should be all go and prepare it"

Finishing his statement, he turns around and head deeper into his quarter, while the old butler bows and hurries of to fulfill the order given.

Meanwhile, In a dark room in a secluded alley in clear spring city a dark mist slowly appeared

"Is the information correct about the target"

Followed by the mist another man dressed in black clothing came from the other end

"Yes the young master of the braymhch family should be leaving soon I don't know where he is going can you track and finish him off"

A shrill laughter from the black mist answered the man question in black

"Just a child if I can't even track him then my name ghost tracker will be put to shame"

Finishing his words the mist slowly disappears, the man in black slowly left before vanishing in the night crowd.

The next day, in the same inn

"This is what you have requested young master"

The old butler hands over a brown looking pouch with golden trim at the top and a long sword covered in sheath the sword looks like a kitana except from the fact that it is longer and has a curved shape from the middle to the tip.

Collecting the pouch and putting it by his waist, Galahad takes the sword and pulls it out of it sheath the sword has a sliver hilt and though it the sheath looks rusty it is actually a sliver star metal, while the sword is a gold rank weapon, it body glimmers with a dark sheen as it absorbs the light.

"Weapons, pills, treasures are all ranked accordingly with the same classification

bronze ranks\=body tempering realm

sliver rank\= spirit actualization realm

gold rank\=divine body realm

crystal rank \= rule stage

Diamond rank\= dao stage

That was the rank I reached in my past life, the peak of Dao stage while at the age of 100 I was a genius like no other, shame it all crumbled down but this time I'll make sure it's different "

Waking up from his memories, Galahad grips the hilt of the sword tightly and takes a deep breath, putting the sword back into his sheath and since spatial items can't be used without reaching the Spirit actualization realm Galahad left it by his waist.

The old butler removes a seal and a folded map from his robe and stretches it forward

"Young master this is a family head seal of the braymhch family it should help in entering the teleportation portals without payment as long it is not enemy territory, the one in the city is currently under repair the next portal should be three small cities away you can rest in between and you should get there two days and two night at most, and this is a map of the entire southern continent it took quite an effort to get this in one night"

Taking the seal and map and placing it inside is robe, Galahad looks out the window

"Thank you for your effort Hendrick, I shall set out by now, this journey might take a long time but I will make sure I make it to royal academy upcoming test when I am done with my training, the exam should be less than two years from now, if I should miss the day of application and do not appear do send someone on my behalf, that is all it is time for me to leave"

Galahad then walks down the room of the inn before paying for his stay and paying for a horse.

A while later, at the east gate of clear spring city, the old butler watches as the young master horse moves farther away from his vision before silently disappearing from the crowd, at the same time countless shadow move the moment the young master horse disappeared.
