Chapter 5: chapter 4

 

In another realm, in Baatinn city, a thirteen-year-old boy was busy casting spells in his room. Baatinn city, the capital of the Kingdom of Baatinn, homeland of Jinns.

Ius was sitting on his bed, holding an ancient wooden object and periodically looking at it closely.

What are you supposed to be and where is your missing piece? I don't remember seeing anything else around when I was in the temple's crypt... he thought.

He rested his hand on his chin. Going back is an option, but I am not sure that I will be able to teleport in the crypt again.

Ius had only started opening portals, and so far, he had found himself in some odd places around their kingdom.

The crypt was one of them. Even though he was a student at the Temple, the entrance was forbidden and magically locked to all students of his age until they reached fifteen.

His unexpected ability to teleport into the crypt had been a dream come true. It allowed him to explore a world otherwise closed to him and other untrained Jinns.

"I felt drawn toward you immediately" he said to a broken wooden object with unseen before writings wrapped in a cloth.

"I was so intrigued, like I felt compelled to take you back with me despite the fact that uncle Altan would kill me if he knew. But I don't know what you are or even what to do with you, so please talk to me, tell me your secret. What are you?"

His curious nature had made him restless, and he knew that not investigating it further would drive him crazy. His family had always accused him of being impatient and quick to act.

I prefer the title fearless; he thought while making a grimace

Noise and footsteps quickly approaching his bedroom brought him out of his reverie.

He stared at the fragmented wooden tablet and his heartbeats accelerated; he said swiftly, "Hide from everyone, not to be seen, only by me."

The object disappeared, and dropping his shoulders, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Ius snapped his fingers, and a book appeared on his lap.

Uncle Altan, he thought when he heard a knock at the door.

He put on his sweetest smile and said, "Come in!"

Altan entered and smiled at him, "Ahhhh, busy reading about Earth's geography. Good boy!"

Ius quickly glanced at the book and saw that it was open on a map of the world.

He laughed nervously and replied, "Yes, so many countries. It is fascinating, Uncle!"

Altan sat on the bed and placed his hand on Ius' shoulder, "Would you like to visit one of those countries one day?"

Ius eyes opened wide, his face gaining more colours and his heart beating a little harder.

"Yes, Uncle, I would like that very much!" he answered with a big smile.

Altan closed Ius' book and said, "Well, I have good news. Since you have completed the first part of your training, I have decided that for the second part, we'll go to another realm and explore.

He tapped on the book, "Starting with Terra!"

Ius' eyes bulged out, and his mouth was agape, but no sound came out. Altan extended his arm and shook him a little. It did the trick. A loud sound came out of Ius' mouth as he hugged his uncle.

Ius had grown up a lot, and to Altan surprise, his hug landed both of them on the floor, Ius on top of his uncle

They burst out laughing, and Altan said "

In the creator's name, you have grown up so much, when did you became so strong?"

Ius a smirk on his face shrugged then held his hand out and helped his uncle up.

"You are almost as strong as me, Ile Ulagan! You sent me flying across the room with just one touch!" said Altan.

Ius laughed, "Sorry, Uncle Altan. I got too excited by the news."

"I know the feeling; I was excited too when I took my first trip to Terra. I am glad you are excited; you have never been around humans; It will be a good learning experience for you."

He sighed and looked around the room "Get ready, nephew, we are leaving tomorrow. First stop, Egypt!"
