Night...
Following the memories that still lingered in his mind, Noah walked along a path through Magnolia Forest. After roughly ten minutes, he arrived at the bank of the river from his memories.
Even in the pitch-black night, the river flowed as serenely as it had four years ago. The faint yet distinct sound of running water echoed in Noah's ears, somehow calming his heart.
Standing by the riverbank, Noah quietly watched the familiar river before him. Memories flashed through his mind of the time he had spent here training his magic control and swordsmanship, as well as the time he had spent cultivating himself around Magnolia.
As mentioned before, Noah was most likely an anomaly.
An anomaly who had been born with the appearance and intelligence of a ten-year-old.
In other words, although Noah had just turned seventeen this year, he had only lived for seven years, and nearly all of those seven years had been spent training himself and strengthening his abilities.
Thus, to Noah, those seven years had been both tedious and deeply meaningful.
Because during those seven years, although Noah had constantly trained himself, he had also gained a family of his own.
Because during those seven years, although Noah had continually grown stronger, he had also gained companions of his own.
So even if life gave Noah another chance to start over, he would still spend those seven years doing the same things without regret.
It was something Noah had never regretted.
