Amon had never been out for a long journey . He wasn’t even sure how to take care of himself . And Crazy’Ole was now asking him to bring a cat with along! Cats weren’t as submissive as dogs, you couldn’t just bring a cat with you . He asked embarrassedly, “Why do you ask me to bring Schrodinger? Will it follow me?”

The answer from Crazy’Ole astonished Amon —

“Schrodinger has stayed with me for thirty years, and it hasn’t changed a bit . I’ve never heard a sound out of it, neither have I ever successfully held it in my arms . It has never left Duc in these thirty years and it followed me here today, perhaps this is what it had been waiting for . Amon, it’s not an ordinary cat, Schrodinger can guide you . I haven’t told you about it’s exceptional identity yet . ”

“What’s its identity? What haven’t you told me?” This cat was amazing . Apart from anything else, remaining the same for thirty years and not making a sound was already beyond all common knowledge .

Crazy’Ole did not answer, but returned with a question, “Do you know where you are going?”

Amon looked at the certificates and said, “Ejypt, right? You must have let the mayor give them to me . With them, I could’ve crossed the desert and went to Ejypt . ”

Crazy’Ole shook his head, “No, that’s prepared for the long term . It was not a total excuse that I asked the mayor to announce that decree . I really want you to find Bair out . Ask yourself, who do you think will be your best guide?”

“Schrodinger, of course! ” Amon pointed at the cat, “But after all these years, you failed to make it lead you to Bair . How am I supposed to succeed then? Maybe it has forgotten it already……Do you still have anything to tell me that you hasn’t? Please let me know! ”

Crazy’Ole glanced at Schrodinger, “Alright, I’ll tell you everything . Bair has not only taken from the Isis Shrine Troni and Gods’ Tear, but also a sacred item and a cat . The Isis Shrine had issued secret orders to find these two things . Only the high priests in Ejypt know about it . ”

“A secret order to find a sacred item is normal, because they wouldn’t like to let others know that they’ve lost a sacred item . But why did they secretly look for a cat? And why did Bair take a cat with him? There must be something important that we don’t know . Although Bair did not tell me, I’m pretty sure that the cat is Schrodinger . I’ve failed to solve this mystery in the last thirty years though, since Schrodinger never responded to me . ”

“To tell you the truth, I’ve tried many times to find Bair through Schrodinger, but I’ve never succeeded . It seems that this cat likes you more, I’ve seen you holding it in your arms, which was what shocked me the most in these past thirty years . ”

“You should practice as a second-level mage, and the test you are going to face is the ‘faith’s confirmation’ . This is all I have figured out for the secret of the gods . It is a tough path, my boy . So I don’t want you to call me teacher, since I can’t guide you in this path any longer . ”

“Clearly, Bair knows much more than I do . Find Bair, this will be your first step to solve the secret . He must have left more information about the next steps! Leave Duc and look for Bair . With Schrodinger in company, you have the chance in succeeding . Don’t be scared, with your achievement in magic and body arts, the mountains and the cavemen won’t be your problem . I hope you don’t regret in the future . ”

Patting Amon’s shoulder, Crazy’Ole finished his long speech . Amon lowered his head and said, “I’m not scared, and I won’t regret . ”

Crazy’Ole sighed with relief, “My boy, you’ve never failed me . Now try and see if you can bring Schrodinger with you . If you can let it follow you, you will have the chance to find Bair . ”

What should I do? Amon took a few steps forward and looked back, “Kitty, kitty, follow me!… . . or Schrodinger?! Please, come with me!……Oh good kitty, let’s go . ”

After Amon tried many times, Schrodinger finally responded . It turned to him and squatted down, leaned out a front paw and pointed at Amon . It seemed like a noble lord ordering his servant to carry him, what arrogance from this lazy fatty!

Amon startled, then walked over to Schrodinger and held it up . Schrodinger yawned, circled and fell asleep! Crazy’Ole gave him a compassionate smile and pointed to the big bag on Amon’s shoulder . It’s impossible to climb the mountains with a cat sleeping in one’s arms . Amon put Schrodinger into the bag, which suited it well . It could even breathe easily through the bag’s opening .

“Amon, I have some last words for you . Please remember them by heart and follow what I’m about to tell you . The first thing you should do is not directly try and find Bair . Go straight east from here, no matter how hard it is, don’t stop and don’t look back . After three days, look around you and climb up the highest mountain in your sight . Always go upwards, the higher, the better . ”

“When the third layer of cloud is below your feet, find a place to practice magic . The most important ones are the water magic and air magic . You can use the Aquaticore and the Ventussalte . Place them into your staff and place two standard parangons into the other two sockets . ”

“You are very good at primary water magic now . With the Ventussalte, air magic won’t be hard for you either . Most mages only care about the mighty power of magic, but they forget about how insignificant their magic power is when compared to the vast power that exists in nature . ”

“So, when you practice the two kinds of magic, the first thing you should care about is not how powerful your magic can be . You should consider how to use them to fight against the power of nature and protect yourself . Don’t say that you can control a drop of water, until you learn to maintain it in a surging river . If you can manage to do that, you will be an excellent mage, and your body arts will reach the limit for a second-level warrior . ”

“Whether you achieve that or not, don’t leave the peak of the mountain . Observe the clouds facing your west . When the sky is covered by dark clouds, find a place to hide yourself . Don’t get hit by the lightning . Wait till the dark clouds disappear and thunder to no longer strike . Then you can start to look for Bair with Schrodinger . ”

You must remember all of these well and do the exact same things!”

The last words came from the sky . Amon turned up and surprisingly found Crazy’Ole flying away scratching the top of the trees like a huge, strange bird . There were still sounds drifting from the other side of the clouds, “Amon, if you can’t find Bair, just dump the cat . You’re on your own now!”
