Chapter 464 No mana land VI
?Hubert closed his eyes and let out a sigh.
"I probably forget... but it's not like I can help him. No one can. Still, he won't forget the time he's going to spend on this land. He will only forget what he experienced outside the boundaries of the No mana land. So, just tell him about this when you two have time."
He paused for a second.
"It's partially 'cause of the grey field around the land as well, but if he's able to leave this place, he can remember... well, only if his mind gets stimulated."
Hubert rubbed his long white beard and started thinking if he forgot anything else. The old couple left his side to go back to their house, and only then did he raise his hand as if he remembered something else.
"Ah, right... the passage of time here is also different from the outside world. Ten years here equals a year outside... huh? Where did they go? Tsk, that's why I don't like answering them."
He stomped his foot and with big strides, he left the village, heading towards the mountain that overlooked the village. He didn't stay in the village. Instead, he built his own house atop the mountain. He did this to keep an eye on the nearby forest and to stay away from all the noise.
.....
A few days went by, and the sky above the village was filled with thick, dark clouds. There were no stars or moon to be seen in the sky, but the houses in the village were adorned with numerous grey flowers. These flowers were placed inside pots that hung on the walls, providing a source of illumination.
Joshua entered the room where the silver-haired human was staying. The old man was accompanied by his only great grandson, who appeared to be around twelve years old.
The little kid with blue pupils held a plate filled with meat and some other edible herbs as he followed his grandfather.
Joshua glanced at Kyle, who had his gaze fixed on the wall opposite him.
"Kyle, if you are awake, eat something. Just like I mentioned earlier, there is no mana in the air, so you will feel hungry quite easily."
Kyle took a look at the food that was brought for him and let out a sigh. He glanced at the plain notebook with a dark cover in his hand and carefully tucked it beneath his pillow. Slowly, he got up from the bed, being careful not to reopen his wounds that had almost healed.
The kid circled around him with his usual cheerful smile and called him big brother before placing the food on the stone table. He ruffled the kid's short, wavy hair and sat down on the chair to eat.
Joshua noticed the notebook that Kyle had placed beneath his pillow. It was something the human had requested, along with a pen, from him and Hazel when they informed him that his old memories would start to fade over time.
Kyle wanted to write down everything about himself so that even if he forgot, he could remember by reading the notebook.
Joshua walked over to the table and took a seat across from the human.
"Have you finished writing everything down?"
Kyle glanced at him. He felt grateful towards the old couple who had been taking care of him. He wanted to repay the duo with mana stones or treasures, but he couldn't retrieve anything from his mind space due to the lack of mana.
"Not everything. Just the things I can't afford to forget. Well, I still remember everything else, except for the face of one of my enemies..."
Suddenly, he remembered the man with purple eyes.
"What about that man? The one you found with me? Is he still in the village?"
Joshua furrowed his brows.
"I saw him yesterday near the forest... but he ignored me, and before I could approach him, he was gone."
He stared at the human opposite him.
"I thought you would react very strongly... when Hazel and I came to tell you about the fact that your old memory would fade... but surprisingly, you didn't."
Kyle didn't say anything. He actually had a lot on his mind, but after contemplating everything for an entire day, he found himself becoming calm.
He had already been through a lot, so he knew it was important to stay composed and deal with the situation instead of complaining or asking why all this was happening to him.
The room went silent as Kyle ate the food that was brought for him.
Joshua was about to leave but stopped when the human stared at him with his green eyes.
"I need to leave this land as soon as possible. There are many people waiting for me. Is there truly no alternative method to leave this land without achieving the transcendent rank physique?"
Kyle placed the small knives in his hands on the table as he finished eating. He stared at the old man, waiting for his response. He had actually started walking around and doing some light exercises in the room to help himself heal even faster. Right now, he only had one objective—he had to find a way to leave this land.
Joshua locked eyes with Kyle. He could never get used to the human's bright eyes, shining like gems. In that fleeting moment, he thought about the pair of purple eyes belonging to that other person he encountered before and wondered if they too ever shone so beautifully... Or maybe they were always blank?
He let out a sigh.
"Unfortunately, there isn't. In the past, a few youngsters from the village wanted to leave as well to explore the outside world. That's why Owner checked this land many times to find an opening or hole in the grey field, but he wasn't able to."
Kyle's face hardened as he listened to the old man quietly.
"Owner is strong, and he can leave this land whenever he wants, but he never did. He's a little annoying, but he has been protecting this village for a long time. He grumbled a lot, but he's also the one who trained those youngsters and helped them all achieve a transcendent rank physique... and they were able to cross the grey field."
