The Spirit World

Chapter 884 [Time Reversal] - Colin Corridge
[If... I have another way to go...]

"Jack! Jack! Wake up! Wake up! The sun! The sun! It's out!"

Someone shook Jack as he slept.

It is a rare miracle that they can survive until now in such a dark cave relying on only a little food.

"Too...sun..." Jack murmured the man's words.

"What?! The sun!"

Jack rubbed his eyes violently and looked outside the cave. There was actually shining sunlight.

That was not moonlight, it was definitely the light of the sun, warm, and one could see it at a glance, the warmth visible to the naked eye.

"Yes! It's the sun! The sun is out! It's time for us to go home!"

The man was overjoyed and cheered as he packed up his things.

A small knife used for cutting bones and shaving meat. The knife was blunt because Jack accidentally used it to chop the bones of a kind of cattle called long-haired beef.

But it didn't matter anymore, the two of them no longer had to go hunting in the forest.

"It will be nice if the sun comes out!"

Jack looked at him excitedly. He was the friend Jack met at the Dragon Race, Colin Colridge. They won the Wenti County Dragon Race by placing second in the Swordsman Group and second in the Magic Group.

Because a shocking darkness descended upon the sky of the spiritual world, the entire sky was dark for seven days and seven nights. A pair of huge starry eyes suddenly opened in the dark sky, and the sun disappeared for seven days and seven nights for no reason.

Amid the overwhelming pressure and darkness of the Winners' Canyon, all the winners from Wenti County were separated.

The two second places came together, searched in Winner Canyon for three days, and spent four days in the cliff cave in Winner Canyon.

They depend on each other and can be considered as brothers who share weal and woe.

"The sun is finally out..." Jack sighed as he took his clothes from the wooden rack and put them on lightly. Although they were still a little damp, they were clean and tidy after being washed.

Although there was no sun for seven days and seven nights, the surrounding grass, trees, insects and rain were not affected at all. For Colin Collich, who was a magician, making a small fire was simply too easy. Killing animals and picking fruits were both first-time experiences for the two children, but they were able to avoid starving to death, which was a little adventure that was remembered forever.

"Yes! The sun is finally out!" Colin happily put away his knife and took his clothes. Although they all looked a little haggard, the sun was finally out after they waited for it, and the excitement in their hearts was beyond words.

They once despairedly believed that the world would be destroyed after that sky curtain, and if the sun did not appear in the following days, they would surely collapse one after another.

Fortunately, there are two sunny little boys, Jack Nyman and Colin Collider, supporting each other.

Maybe this is also a part of fate.

"Should we go meet up with them first?"

Jack took his two-handed sword that was stuck in the ground, put it in the scabbard, and put it on his back with a buckle. Colin also packed his things, took his wand out of his clothes and put it into his sleeve.

"I think they should have gone back... I just woke up." Colin's fangs were exposed in a smile. He stood up, shook his body twice, and straightened his clothes, which were also wrinkled but washed clean. "I believe they should be fine! There are no high-level monsters in this Winner's Canyon. We have encountered monsters of similar levels. It should be safer for them to gather together."

"That's right..." Jack glanced at the sunlight in the cave. It had been a long time since he had seen such a soft sunlight. It's not that he had never seen light before. Colin's magic light source was still very bright, but it was too rigid. It was not as shining and warm as the sunlight.

No one wants to live in darkness forever, and little teenagers are no exception.

"We're finally leaving here...Jack!" Colin suddenly hugged him. The ashes of the bonfire had not yet burned out, but Colin's hug became even warmer.

"Well! Colin! We can finally leave here!" Jack hugged him, and Colin slapped Jack's back hard. At this moment, the friendship between the two little men was uniquely established.

Seven days and seven nights, from the awkwardness when they first met, to hunting together, to spending this dark period together, after the incident known as the "Star Eye that Devoured the Sky", it seemed that they had said everything they had to say.

Jack patted Colin on the back as well.

But Jack felt Colin's tears falling on his shoulder.

"We can go home now! Colin! Be happy!"

Jack hugged Colin tightly and comforted his companion: "We can go home... Don't cry..."

Jack's nose also felt sore. The seven days and seven nights of despair were finally over. He felt a surge of heat in his chest that rushed into his eyes. His black eyes were also filled with tears.

However, he did not cry, because his sister Erica told him that men should not cry casually.

"Well... we are finally back... Jack--" Colin slowly released Jack's hug and reluctantly pulled his hand away from Jack's.

Hugging friends who have shared weal and woe with you will make your heart surge and your beating heart will feel itchy.

That is a unique friendship that will not change with time.

Colin was not as tall as Jack, but he had a cheerful smile that Jack never had.

If it was just because the sun came out, that would definitely be incorrect. It was tears of joy that I and my good friends had finally overcome the difficulties.

"Let's go..." Jack also shook off his clothes and put them in order.

"Yeah!" Colin buckled his package behind his back as well, turned around with his small body and walked towards the cave entrance. He tilted his head slightly to glance at Jack on his left, and when he saw Jack catching up with him, he walked quickly.

He wiped away his tears and chuckled, "Jack, tell me, if the winner of the Dragon Conference finds this cave, will he think that there are two savages living here? Ah? Hahaha..."

"Maybe... Judging from the number of times the cuckoo has called, we have been here for seven days and seven nights... We are really living no different from the savages..."

Jack looked at the back of Colin's head and then naturally looked at his feet.

Everyone is really in a mess now. Although there is water and food, it just feels terrible. Without the care of their parents, the two little boys live in a cave. Every life skill they have comes from their parents' teachings.

Food without firewood, rice, oil and salt is really the worst cooked food.

But, it has passed after all, and there is no such thing as a bad thing that is not unpalatable or not.

“Hahahaha…that’s really weird…hahaha…it feels so good to be home…it feels so good…” Colin opened his arms and stretched comfortably.

Jack looked at Colin's back and actually felt that he should stretch his muscles. "Yeah, it's great to be able to go home..."

They didn't know how legendary it was for two little boys to spend seven days and seven nights in a small cave. They only knew that it was over and they could see their parents again.

"After I get back, I'm going to have a good sleep! A super long sleep!"

Colin yawned loudly.

Jack followed behind him and laughed.

"I want one too! I'm so sleepy..."

Jack shook his shoulders and snorted.

He had indeed just woken up.

The cave is right in front of you and you can feel the warmth of the sunlight.

What a gentle light it is...

In the Canyon of Winners, sunlight itself is a luxury, but when the sun comes out, the night needs to be avoided.

They came to the entrance of the cave, covered their eyes, and finally opened their eyes to take a look at the long-lost sun.

"By the way... who on earth could have created that eye? It could actually make the sun disappear for three days and three nights~"

Colin took out his wand from his sleeve, cast a wind spell, and tapped it on his and Jack's shoes. A visible green wind vortex instantly formed on the shoes of the two.

When they went hunting, they would go down into the sunken cave in this way.

He slowly descended along the trees on the cliff. If he were a little older and his magic power was a little stronger, perhaps he could fly directly down the cliff.

Jack followed slowly.

“Is that something a human can do?”

Jack had some doubts, Colin turned around and laughed happily again.

"You ask me?"

Colin turned back and grasped the tree in his hands.

He smiled almost playfully: "I don't know either~ But if there is really someone who can perform magic that covers the sky, he must be a top magician!"

"Yeah..." Jack agreed.

"To be honest, I'm quite envious..."

Colin raised the corners of his mouth, revealing his fangs: "No one doesn't want to be a super wizard! Jack! In the future, I will definitely become a wizard admired by everyone! This is my ambition!"

Colin looked back again, raising his thin eyebrows.

To be honest, Colin looks more feminine, with blond hair, blue eyes, and cute fangs. It would be too masculine to say that he is a cute shota.

His long hair swayed in the wind, making him smile so beautifully.

Jack blushed a little...

"What about you! Jack! What about your ideal? What do you want to do! In the future!"

"I?"

Jack looked at the canyon below him, the breeze blowing his blond and white hair, and the green, red and emerald flowers in his hands, bright and beautiful.

"Maybe, become a... uh... a super great swordsman?"

"Oh, there is no super swordsman!" Colin smiled and slid down the bald vines they had already grabbed and landed on the ground in the canyon.

It was much more humid here because of the loss of the sun for seven days and seven nights, but the blue sky and white clouds visible above the canyon were just like every day seven days ago, and it was like a dream, pleasant and joyful.

"Should be, swordsman, becoming the best swordsman in the world should be Jack's goal, right?"

"Ah? How can I be that powerful?"

Jack also landed. He followed behind Colin like Colin's younger brother rather than a friend.

"It would be nice if I could become a better swordsman. It would be too early to be the best in the world... As the second place, we have no chance to go to Fran, right? Then how can we talk about being a good swordsman..."

Jack's understanding of swordsmen is too simple, so he doesn't know how to describe a powerful swordsman...

Perhaps, in his mind, a great swordsman is one who has a very good sword, a very good...

"Of course not. Fran said that only the first place is accepted, but if you come in second, you can definitely become an outsider and enter Fran to study!"

They had walked the "Night Road" canyon countless times and it was very familiar to them.

They walked, looking left and right at the daytime scenery.

If you calm down, this place is really beautiful...

"Hack students..."

Jack was puzzled.

"Don't worry, our Coric family will help you study in Fran! When the time comes, we have to take care of each other~"

If anything, there was a natural confidence about Colic that attracted Jack.

Let Jack be willing to follow him.
