It was only after nearly an hour has passed that Leo was finally able to hear the sounds of the Forest Rats leaving the place.
"Finally..." Leo can\'t help heaving a sigh of relief, knowing that he was finally safe.
But of course, he still decided not to try and open the metal door yet to see the surface. His older brother Reinhart has constantly reminded him in the past that Magical Beast are intelligent creatures, really unlike ordinary animals, hence they can be tricky to handle, and just to really be safe, he reminded him not to get out of the small underground room unless enough time has already passed after they heard them leaving. After all, he can\'t see what\'s above, hence there is no telling whether the Magical Beast has really left or was still staying nearby his location. If it was the latter and he opened the door, then obviously the Magical Beast would notice him and hence deemed his hiding useless.
"I guess the best plan here is to wait until my older brother Reinhart returns..." Leo immediately thought of the best thing to do.
Although Leo was still a 5-year-old kid, he was already a lot smarter and experienced compared to kids his age. This was because he has been receiving constant training and knowledge from the moment he reached 2 years old.
Normally, kids at that age are still having trouble talking, walking, and also doing other different actions, not to mention training and reading some books. But, he was different, no, his parents were different, because they were both Mages, hence he was born different compared to the normal kids.
When he was still a few months old, he can already start crawling, and then he eventually started learning how to walk using his two feet, and a few months later he can shockingly already run. The moment he reached 1-year-old, he can already talk and also understand a few easy to understand words with the help of his calm father and really strict mother. And when he finally became 3 years old, he was finally receiving constant training and knowledge.
Maybe this was one of the reasons why he was chosen by the Red Cube, because he is not normal, or more appropriately he is special compared to the others.
Now about that Red Cube, it was really such a mysterious Magical Item. It has its own consciousness as it would always fly in a circle around him whenever he\'s near, touch him, and what\'s even more shocking is there were times when it tried to get inside his body, but seems like it was still unable to do so, it would soon then give up and return back to its container.
The Red Cube would only show such action when he was alone though, and because of that, when he told his older brother Reinhart about it, he immediately pulled him to sleep in his room instead. Until today, he\'s still sleeping in his older brother\'s room.
His older brother Reinhart was really such an overprotective older brother, that\'s why he can easily understand that everything he has been doing was only to keep him away from the so-called destined Fate to fight against the Gods of the Celestial World.
As for the reason why, both his older brother Reinhart and his parents told him that it\'s because the Gods were the ones causing war over the Celestial World in order for them to have their race the only remaining race in existence over the entire Celestial World. They were the cause of the War of Races, causing billions of lives not only from the Human race but also the other Foreign races to be lost.
Every time he heard the news about the battlefield of the War of Races from his older brother Reinhart and his parents when they returned, he can\'t help but desire to stop the war and save everyone.
However, his older brother Reinhart always told him not to. Saying that he should never ever think of trying to involve himself with such unfair Fate forced by the Red Cube to him. It even reached to the point that he is forbidden from learning how to cultivate his Magic Power despite him having the affinity to become a Mage the moment he was born. But because his parents encourage him to cultivate, he could only secretly do it in fear that his older brother Reinhart might become angry at him once he found out.
Actually, the real reason why his older brother Reinhart was like that because he said that if he indeed starts cultivating at such a young age, he would definitely be able to achieve a lot of legend worthy things in the future that even the Foreign races that have long been inhabiting the Celestial World can\'t achieve. However, that would in turn result in a lot of people paying close attention to him, which also includes the Gods themselves.
Reinhart said that, once that happened, even with the help of the Red Cube, he will still die from the schemes and plots of those Gods, since he\'s not yet powerful enough to fight against them, and not to mention defend against them. Even if he didn\'t die, he will definitely lose all of his family, including his older brother Reinhart, his father, his mother, and everyone around him, which would certainly affect his mentality tremendously.
Reinhart even added that, once that happened, there is no telling anymore whether he would really become a hero of the Celestial World like what he said he would be, or a villain instead since the loss of everyone important around him would certainly spark a huge chance that he will hate the Celestial World and become much worse than the Gods using the power of the Red Cube that was said that can even defeat the Gods themselves.
Obviously, he doesn\'t want that, that\'s why he always listens to his older brother Reinhart.
After enough time passes, Leo finally decided to open the door of the small underground room. But unfortunately, he soon realized that he was actually unable to push it upward, causing him to frown as he quickly understood that there are definitely a lot of things stocking up above the door causing him to not have enough strength to push them away.
"I guess I can only wait until my older brother Reinhart returns..." Leo thought as he grabbed a water container and washed the mud off from his body. But, while washing the mud off, he always pays constant attention to the ground above him, in case him removing the disguise of his smell attracts those Forest Rats if ever they are still nearby his location. But fortunately, there were still no signs or anything, even after he finally cleaned off all the mud.
After cleaning himself, he then lay down on the bed and decided to sleep. He didn\'t bring anything with him to kill time, even a single book, so the other perfect plan to waste time aside from reading is to just go to sleep.
In his sleep, he dreams once more of that God who really loves the Celestial World so much that he sacrificed his very own life to protect the world and its inhabitants.
The God of Fate!
He saw in his dream how the God of Fate has created a lot of ways to protect the inhabitants of the Celestial World, which includes a really powerful Magical Beast called Leviathans to fight off against the evil Gods, a maze called Labyrinth that can shelter the inhabitants of the Celestial World from the Gods and also assist them to become more powerful, granted a few Mages unique capability and made them Special Mages to help protect those who can\'t protect themselves, created many Legacies to pass to the countless different races living in the Celestial World in order to aid them, appointed a few people to travel to different worlds to send out a warning in advance in a form of prophecy, created millions of powerful Magic weapons that were scattered all across the Celestial World so that the inhabitants of the Celestial World can have a powerful Magic weapon that can injured the Gods, and lastly, the God of Fate turned himself into a Magical Item that has a form of a red-colored cube, specifically the Red Cube that has chosen him, which is really called the Fate Cube.
The Fate Cube has granted him the unique capability to summon Elementals, specifically Magical Entities of different Elements that have the potential to even become much more powerful than even the Gods themselves. It also created a seemingly infinite amount of Fate Strings and gave it to different people. Only the God of Fate can see those Fate Strings, and all of it was connected to the Fate Cube, showing different meanings through the different colors of Fate Strings and also allowing those holders of the Fate Strings to communicate without the Gods noticing. Simply put, the Fate Cube gave him the ability to fight against the Gods.
"Do I really have the chance to fight and win against those powerful Gods?" Leo, who has already opened his eyes after dreaming of such a long and short dream about that God of Fate can\'t help asking himself.
