Odyssey of the Blind God

'This is so bothersome. Everyone is forced to act friendly toward me just because I am the Crown Prince. Is anyone of them friendly to me because of my personality, in the first place?'

No matter what Nial was doing in the kindergarten, other children flocked around him. They were overly polite and tried to get closer to him.

Known as the youngest summoner in the long history of the Lacardian Empyrean Void, Nial was already quite popular. However, he was also said to be an amiable Crown Prince, who was easy to approach, according to everyone he was close with.

It didn't really matter whether he was easy to approach or not. The children's actions seemed too forced as they approached him. At the age of 3 to 7 nobody was really good at deceiving others. It would be quite weird if someone was good at tricking others at such a young age.

Thus, Nial quickly figured that many commoner parents influenced their children. Most of them weren't trying to exploit Nial, but they didn't want to get on his wrong side either. After all, one wrong word said to Nial might result in the execution of their entire family.

Something like that was not likely to happen, but the possibility was present, that was for sure.

Nial was trying to socialize as well. He wanted to get to know the living conditions of the commoners, what had to be improved, and where he could already give a helping hand.

Because children were usually the least likely to be acquainted with scheming and ways to deceive others, they were deemed as more honest. Their bluntness was what scared their parents now that the Crown Prince visited the same kindergarten, but it was something Nial wanted to make use of.

In fact, he had been told to ask the children how their families lived and other topics related to the living conditions of the people in the outskirts of the capital.

This gave him many crucial pieces of information, which he relayed to his Instructors and servants.

Nial had already asked the servants, guards, and many other people in the capital about the same topics as he asked the children, but their answers were vastly different. While the servants lived in a building that had been prepared by the royal family, the guards had their own rooms in the barracks. They were treated extremely well, which was also why they didn't really have any complaints.

But even if they had any complaints, they wouldn't really say anything to Nial. Their complaints would be luxurious complaints that were not related to the mission the Crown Prince had obtained from his mother.

After spending a few months in kindergarten, Nial could finally free himself from most children that had surrounded him all the time. Comparing the few hours he spent in the kindergarten every single day with his daily workouts, teachings, and training, Nial could have never imagined that he would rather work out and train more than continuing to go to the kindergarten.

It was just too draining.

The children were a hassle and nobody seemed to be genuinely trying to befriend him. They were all just too afraid that something might happen to their families, or the belief that Nial's status was simply too high.

Now that he ended up on the rooftop of the building, he summoned Goldy and lay down. The warm morning sun shone on his fair skin as he closed his eyes to take some rest.

Feeling the mana in his surroundings, he naturally absorbed it. Under normal circumstances, it would have been a little troublesome to absorb mana naturally because his body was still underdeveloped and the increase in strength he would receive from the refinement of his Mana Core would take a toll on him.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

However, since he summoned his first Familiar, it had become quite simple to absorb mana into his Mana Core, where it would be annexed and used as a means to refine his Mind, Body, and Soul Space.

His Mana Core expanded five times over the course of three months. That was quite fast, especially for young children, whose Mana Veins had yet to fully develop. Nial had been examined and it was found out that he was already in possession of Superior Mana Veins, which were still growing stronger.

Thus, it was rather normal to have reached the 6th Origin rank by now. He didn't feel much of a toll from his rapid advancement. On the contrary, Nial was able to feel much more whenever the Goldscale Serpent had a growth spurt than he felt from the expansion of his Mana Core.

Goldy was a youngling Goldscale Serpent, after all. The Goldscale Serpent was still growing and that would continue for quite a while. Goldscale Serpents were known as beings that could reach the Mirae rank. Following in Nial's footsteps, Goldy was also trying to expand his Mana Core as often as possible. As long as Goldy's Mana Core expanded nine times, it would be a great fortune. After all, that would mean Goldy could advance to the Mirae rank creating a Superior Origin Ring.

This might not seem like something special at first, but it was the first step they had to take to break Goldy's racial limitations!

With that in mind, both Summoner and Familiar took some time off from the kindergarten in order to rest on the rooftop.

But there was just one thing that he forgot to take into consideration.

Others could also get to the rooftop!

The rooftop's door was locked with a mana lock. Under normal circumstances, one would have to know the 'password' which had to be typed in via Mana, but Nial used his silver eye to see the mana currents and their remnants inside the lock in order to open it.

Nobody went to the rooftop, either way. At least, that was what Nial thought.

What he didn't expect was for a young child, a fellow kindergarten kid, to be able to open the lock using mana.

But that was not even everything.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom The child had not only awoken her Mana Core, but she was already in possession of a Familiar!

'Why does this child feels so familiar? I never meet her…but she looks so familiar…'

A picture of three women flashed through his head, women, whom he had never encountered before.

An Elven Princess, a human with great charms, and…an Oracle?
