The Boundless Journey, Starting From Bofuri

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. When Takeru opened his eyes, he found Rem had already left, but Ram was still curled in his arms.

"Ram." Seeing this, Takeru lightly pinched her cheek.

"Master!" Feeling the touch on her face, Ram quickly woke up. Seeing Takeru, she showed an enamored smile.

"Alright, time to get up. Look, Rem has been busy for a while." Lightly flicking Ram's forehead, Takeru said helplessly.

"I know." Hearing Takeru, Ram nodded and slowly sat up.

As for Takeru, after getting up and freshening up, he encountered Beatrice waiting for him.

Seeing the somewhat reproachful look in Beatrice's eyes, Takeru helplessly shook his head and picked her up. "While I'm happy Betty is so attached to me, sometimes it's a bit troublesome."

Hearing Takeru, Beatrice was stunned, realizing she indeed clung to Takeru a bit too much, or rather, had grown accustomed to being held by him. So, when Takeru didn't come last night, Beatrice felt unaccustomed.

"Alright, Rem should have breakfast ready. Let's go eat." Looking at the thoughtful golden-haired girl, Takeru said with a light laugh, changing the topic.

Then, holding Beatrice, Takeru went to Felt's room to wake her, greeted Emilia, and soon everyone enjoyed the breakfast Rem prepared.

Though Rem was Takeru's maid, she still handled most of the mansion's cooking, just freed from other chores.

After breakfast, Takeru took Ram to find Meili. After bidding farewell to everyone, the three flew towards the assassin organization.

Having mastered wind attribute abilities, flying was easy for Takeru and the others. With her immense mana and control, Ram had no issues flying either.

Following Meili's directions, they crossed forests, passed towns and villages, and finally stopped at a hidden mountain range on the border of the Kingdom of Lugnica.

Sensing the hidden cave behind a barrier, Takeru remained expressionless, 'This seemed to be the assassin organization's headquarters.'

Looking at the cave, Meili showed fear, clearly terrified of what was inside.

"Ram, the inside is yours. Don't disappoint me." Easily tearing the barrier, Takeru calmly said to Ram.

"I understand, Master." Hearing Takeru, Ram showed a light smile, then turned her gaze to the cave, eyes turning cold.

Inside, under the 'mother's' instructions, some assassins knew intruders had arrived and headed out to eliminate them.

However, as soon as they emerged, before even seeing Ram clearly, they were struck by wind blades, beheaded or cut in half.

Then, Ram entered the cave, easily dodging ambushes. Unleashing a fierce tornado, she caught most assassins, shredding them...

After over twenty minutes, Ram, stained with blood, slowly walked out. All enemies inside had been eliminated, including the mastermind Meili and others called 'mother'. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Master, cleanup complete. These are the spoils." Emerging, Ram bowed slightly and used a whirlwind to bring out a large pile of holy gold coins, jewels, and swords.

"Well done. Let's go back." Saying this, Takeru took out an alloy box, stored everything inside, and put it in his inventory.

Through Observation Haki, Takeru had clearly perceived everything inside. Over twenty skilled assassins were like infants against Ram, easily slaughtered.

The time spent was because Ram had to find cunning assassins, checked twice, and collected their wealth. If all assassins had gathered initially, under Ram's full power, they'd have been eliminated in under five minutes.

Seeing Ram wipe out the entire organization in thirty minutes, Meili subconsciously swallowed, looking at her with terror.

Ignoring the terrified Meili, Takeru used a whirlwind to carry her and flew back with Ram towards the Roswaal Mansion.

"Nii-san, Ram, is everyone okay?" By afternoon, when Takeru and the others returned, Felt sensed them first and hurried over.

"Don't worry, we're fine. Felt, how was your study today?" Looking at Felt, Takeru gently ruffled her short golden hair.

"Mm-hmm, I can use wind blades now." Hearing Takeru, Felt quickly shot several wind blades nearby.

"Looks good. Keep it up." Sensing the wind blades' power, Takeru spoke softly.

Praised by Takeru, Felt looked excited.

Then, Takeru had Ram clean up, asked Rem to take Meili back under house arrest, and after greeting Emilia, took Beatrice to the courtyard, having promised to teach her a new ability.

"Next, I'll talk about Nen. Nen is similar to magic. Overall, it's the ability to manipulate life energy/Aura. Freely controlling the Aura emitted from the body, using it for attack or defense is called Nen."

After briefly explaining Nen, Takeru introduced the Four Major Principles.

Teaching Beatrice Nen wasn't a whim. Takeru felt Nen could compensate for Beatrice's close-combat weakness, greatly boosting her combat power.

Though Beatrice wasn't weak, she wasn't as strong as imagined, more of a support. If she wanted to help Takeru, her current strength wasn't enough.

Nen could rapidly enhance her power without conflicting with her abilities. With her experience controlling mana, Takeru believed Beatrice could easily master Nen.

Takeru didn't expect Beatrice to develop Nen to an extreme level, and mastering Ken would suffice.

As a Great Spirit, Takeru sensed Beatrice's immense life energy, suggesting rapid Nen growth.

"Alright, I'll help open your Aura Nodes to activate your Nen. Then, you just need to use Ten." Looking at Beatrice, Takeru said seriously.

"Betty remembers." Hearing Takeru, Beatrice directly replied.

"Good, let's start now." Hearing her, Takeru turned serious, set up a barrier, and stood behind Beatrice.

Then, Takeru placed his hand, infused with vast Nen, behind Beatrice. Though not touching her, Beatrice felt something contact her back as Takeru's Nen flowed into her.

Beatrice felt something inside her break open, making her body lighter than before.

After all nodes were opened, Beatrice's Nen surged, forming a massive airflow.

"So this is Nen?" Sensing this energy different from mana, Beatrice said in astonishment.

"Betty, use Ten now. Lock the Aura inside your body." Seeing the stunned Beatrice, Takeru reminded her.

"I know." Hearing this, Beatrice spoke softly, closed her eyes, and quickly controlled her Nen as Takeru instructed. In under a minute, the dissipating Nen calmed. Using Gyo, Takeru saw strong Nen tightly locked on Beatrice's body surface.

"Betty, what you're using now is Ten. It offers good protection and slightly enhances attacks." Looking at the curious Beatrice, Takeru explained softly.

"So this is Nen? It's really great." Feeling the Nen's resilience, Beatrice smiled happily.

"Mm-hmm, now just training is needed. Let me teach you the Four Major Principles." Seeing the delighted Beatrice, Takeru spoke directly.

Then, Takeru explained the Four Major Principles, which Beatrice quickly grasped.
