Ball of Nothing - Chapter 50
Chapter 50
"Yes of course! We've prepared something for you," Zeus grinned .
True to their words, Zeus and Hades gifted Zero a whistle and a lamp .
"What are these?"
The titans grinned . "This is a whistle for summoning Pegasus . He will come to you when you call . Apart from underwater, Pegasus will be able to take you anywhere . The lamp is actually a portable home . All you need to do is rub the lamp and whisper the words 'itty-bitty living space' and it will teleport you and Truen inside it . When you want to go out, just ring the bell from inside . "
Zero marvelled at it and promised to keep the items safe . En cast anti-theft enchantments to both items much to the relief of Truen before giving Zero his gift . It was a simple traveller's sling bag that has a dimensional storage inside .
"Although you can store things into the void, taking things out from thin air will surprise humans . Use this for things that are often used . I hope this will be handy during your travel . "
"Thank you, En!" Zero beamed and hugged En briefly before putting the whistle and lamp into his new bag . He oohed and ahhed over the functions of the bag for a while as En showed him how to use it . The King of Trials had spent a lot of effort thinking about Zero's interest when creating the bag . With Mii's help, they managed to link the void inventory to the bag . This way, perishable and liquid items will be stored there immediately . Zero doesn't need to absorb an item immediately now that he had a dimension storage bag . He could put food away to consume or absorb later when he needed it .
Finally, it was Buddha's turn . The Sage God asked for Zero's communicator and fiddled with it for a moment before passing it back .
"Here, this is an application that will allow you to use the map function . If you charge it with magic, you can select these destinations to teleport to . It is a quick way to visit us . The map has a feature to record down the places you've been to, people you've met and scout for enemies or living targets within a certain area . For places you have not been to, the map can only give a general description based on what is generally known . Of course, I will update it regularly so that the information is up to date . However, things in the human world change too quickly, please note that not everything will be accurate . "
Buddha had worked hard with Merlin and Steve Jobs to create this app specially for Zero . Truen was also given an intergalactic communicator . The Great Gods didn't do this out of goodwill . They did it so that Truen can be trained while travelling with Zero . On his communicator were a few things that were kept a secret from Zero . The first as a group voice chat and a location tracking function . The second was an app that is a library of knowledge from ancient fighting styles to science and magic . Everything as in there and Buddha had taken the initiative to create a crash course for Truen to study while he was asleep .
Steve and Merlin had worked especially hard on the simulation function to replicate the feelings of a battle for Truen while he slept . Isis had a part in this too as she donated her powers to distort time for practical training purposes . Time flowed much slower for Truen when his mind was trapped in the library app . For a day on Earth, Truen will be allowed to spend up to a month in the app library . It was a warp space that the Great Gods can share with Truen's mind while he slept .
"Of course, your training will begin as soon as you fall asleep," Freya smiled . "I will personally tutor you on basic magic and combat skills . "
Truen paled . Didn't En say that the Great Gods were in charge of teaching him magic? How did teaching evolve into spartan training?
As if reading the elf's mind, En smirked . Zero was still occupied with exploring the map application and deciding where he wanted to visit first . Truen shivered when En whispered to him, "Don't worry, we will take turns whipping you into shape . After all, that body of yours is practically immortal . Something of this level won't kill you right?"
