Chapter 16: Let's Go Kill That Bastard.
"Everyone is ready."
Aaron turned to Emily, who quickly brought out a red gemstone. She then started inscribing the transportation Circle on it.
"That is a transportation circle, Where are we going?" Aurora turned to Aaron.
'Does my Mom know everything?' Aaron thought, he scratched the back of his head with a smile.
"We are going to the third Continent."
"Really?" Lilly's eyes widened in shock.
"Yes."
"It's done."
What followed Emily's voice was a gateway, which appeared in front of her.
"You guys should go first." Aaron calmly looked at the two.
Lilly nodded and walked Inside with Snow, followed by Aurora.
"What are you planning, Master?" Protean asked in mild suspicion.
"Tell me the Talos King's exact location." He turned to Emily, not answering Protean.
"What about the Queen?"
"Take them to the village, We'll kill that Bastard and come find you."
Emily thought for a moment, then nodded. "The Talos King is deep in the mountain, North from here. You'll see the Mountain when you Exit the forest... Be careful Aaron."
"Thank you."
She nodded, and handed him the red gemstone.
"The transportation Circle is really--"
"--I know how to draw it." He cut her off.
Upon hearing him, Emily smiled slightly. "Ok, Aaron. We'll wait for you in the village." With that said, she walked inside the gateway, which closed behind her.
"Where are the Cores, Protean?" Aaron turned to the red skeleton.
"Here."
Protean handed him a total of 19 Cores in a bag, Aaron took the bag with a nod. He arranged it around him and sat in the center.
"Stay on Guard, Protean. I don't know how long it will take me to absorb everything and enter the Saint Realm, or better Legendary Saint."
Protean nodded, and stood behind him. While Aaron closed his eyes, slowly absorbing the Cores.

"Where is Aaron?" Aurora quickly asked, seeing only Emily.
"The prince said he has to take care of something important, That we shouldn't wait for him." Emily said, hiding the fact that Aaron was actually going after the Talos' King who was a Demon-stage Monster.
Aurora was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly. "Aaron will never do anything that will put his life at risk, he'll be fine."
"Mom, You are forgetting Aaron is just Six Months old."
"Fufufu... True, but he's stronger than those Ten or even twenty years ahead of him."
'So the young prince was telling the truth, he's really six months old, I thought he was lying to my Dad.' Emily thought in shock.
"Hey Emily, is that an enchanted ring in your finger?" Lilly asked in mild surprised.
"Oh, Yes. It's my pet."
"Can I see it?" She asked.
"She's injured." Emily started walking towards the village. "This way." She said.
"Injured? Let me see her, Maybe I can help."
"Are you a Mage?" Emily turned to Lilly, staring at her over her shoulder.
"You speak like you are older them me, But yes, I'm a mage." Lilly said with raised chest.
'It won't be bad to give it a try, precious is my only close friend, and it's because if me she's injured.' With hesitation, she stopped and turned around to the two.
"Precious, Show yourself."
A Silver phoenix appeared in front of her, but fell on the ground moment next. Emily quickly walked up to her familiar, she squat down caressing its feathers.
"Can you help her?" She looked up at Lilly.
"She is so beautiful! Don't worry." Lilly knelt down in front of Precious and stretched out her hand towards it.
"Evocans Potestatem medendi."
[Calling forth the power of healing]
Faint green light appeared on the 4 centimeters deep cut on the Phoenix, Emily and Aurora with Snow watched as the cut slowly closed up.
"Hii." The Phoenix opened its weak eyes, as it took in its surrounding.
"Master."
"Precious!" Emily gave her familiar a tight hug. "Thank you, My Princess. We'll return this favor." She thanked, with a rare smile on her face.
"It's nothing, the only thing you can help me with is; look after us in the village." Lilly said with a small smile. "How did Precious get injured so badly?" She asked.
"When we were in the forest yesterday, we came in contact with a Demon-Stage monster, Precious saved me by placing herself in the attack." She hugged her familiar more tightly.
"Demon-Stage! And you survived, that's admirable." Lilly said with a smile, she flicked her wrist and a potion appeared in her hand:
"By Brother made this, It has a horrible smell. But it can hide you from being detected by any stage Monster... I'm not sure if it works on "Any" Stage, but a Demon-Stage won't be able to detect you."
"You are giving this to me?" Emily asked, staring at the Potion in Lilly's hand.
"Yes, take it." Lilly handed the potion to her.
"Thank you."
"Yes, thank you."
Lilly nodded at precious and Emily, with a smile on her face. "It's nothing, I have 50 more with me... Do you want more?"
Emily and Precious blinked a couple of times, utterly perplexed.

[Two Hours Later.]
"When will my Master be done? I shouldn't have added more Cores." Protean moved his gaze to the six dead Griffins beside him.
BOOM!!!!
A powerful Sid energy burst out from Aaron, turning all the trees and Monsters 30 meters away into dust. Protean looked at himself in confusion.
"Such a powerful amount of Sid energy, I thought I was done for." He moved his gaze around in mild surprised.
"That energy leveled the forest?!!"
Aaron slowly opened his eyes, he observed himself with a satisfy smile.
"No one will believe a Six months old child will be able to enter the Legendary Saint Realm." He slowly stood up.
"What happened here?" He asked in confusion.
"Did you just asked that, Master?" Protean stared at him in reproach.
"Forget it." Aaron stretched his body, while looking around a little bewildered. "Where is the house? Did I also destroy it?"
Protean glared at him.
"Ok, ok. But We'll have to hide this from Lilly, or she'll tear me into pieces." He said with a small smile, Then looked at his hand.

'It seems because I'm still a baby, My stats are lower than the realm I am. Will I be able to win the Demon-stage King with these low stats? Maybe I can outsmart it. But... Why is my class still "None"?'
Protean took the form of a baby Griffin and landed on his shoulder. "What are we waiting for?"
"Come on, Let's go kill that Bastard." Aaron looked around, then head North with Protean on his shoulder.
"And thanks for the extra 6 Cores." He added.
