In the past 4 months, Merlin has continued to instruct Pakura to develop scorch release kekka genkai. "Focus your chakra into your hands. Feel the warmth building within you, like the heat of the midday sun."
Hearing the instructions, Pakura poured chakra into her hands, creating a burning sensation in her hand, followed by a fire element forming a layer.
"Now, visualize the sand around you, feel its gritty texture, its weight, its movement in the wind. Merge your chakra with it, let it become an extension of yourself. can feel the change of chakra now" spoke Merlin.
Nodding her head pakura continued to focus "Excellent, Pakura. Now, channel your chakra into the sand, infusing it with your fiery energy. Picture flames dancing amidst the grains, swirling and growing stronger with each passing moment."
" I can see it, The sand is glowing with intense heat, like molten lava." Pakura replied.
" That's it, Pakura. Now, release your technique." Suddenly, a burst of scorching flames erupts from Pakura's hands, targeting a nearby boulder. As the flames hit the boulder, it began to melt and form into lava. Seeing this, Pakura cheered and looked at Merlin for approval.
" Congratulations pakura you have created a new kekkei genkai "
" Thank you, Sensie; without your help, I could not have done it." Replied pakura cheerfully.
" Now that you have completed your training, I will be going." Hearing Merlin, she showed a sad expression, indicating that you could stay a little longer.
" Pakura Just because you developed a kekkei genkai, don't think it's the end; you need to constantly improve it, even if I am not here. Before I go, I'll leave you a gift. Stretching out his index finger, Merlin tapped her head. But for Pakura, many forms of information were suddenly found in her head: "I have left you a few models for attack and defense Jutsu development and a meditation method to increase chakra level. Don't share it with others." Warned Merlin.
Nodding her head, Pakura said, "Sensie, can't you?" However, Merlin did not let her finish. "I told you already, Pakura." I am not a Shinobi, and I am a wizard, so I cannot stay here." Over the past few months of interaction, Pakura found out Merlin did not generally like ninjas and even called them civilized barbarians. Knowing Sensie would be leaving, she said, "Will I see Sensie again?"
" I don't know, but you could always leave behind the path of Shinobi and follow me if you want."
Hearing this, Pakura did not know how to respond. Seeing this, Merlin shuffled her hair and said, "If you ever decide to change, I will still accept you.". Leaving her behind, Merlin flew in the sky and said, "See you later, Pakura."
" Yes, Sensie, see you later." Pakura looked at the going figure with a grateful look.
As Merlin reached the forest between the land of wind and fire, he decided to rest for the day. "My chakra level has finally reached the requirement for the senior wizard apprentice level, and my soul space has also increased space to add 7 more runes. System, what are the chances of success in promotion to senior wizard apprentice?"
" Reporting: The host has a chance of success rate of 73%. To further increase the chance, the host is requested to absorb a large amount of life force and consume the elixir of enlightenment."
System can the material for elixir be substituted with the one available in the Shinobi world."
" 23 substitute materials have been recorded in the database, and the remaining materials are natural energy stones and a flower of snow veil."
Over the years, Merlin has collected a lot of samples of extraordinary items to fill his database. "System: What are the properties of the flower of the snow veil?"
" The flower of the snow veil is formed at extreme cold temperatures and is born from ice elements and natural energy. It is used by wizards to help them in promotion by helping them adapt to changes in the body's constitution."
" I think I should first go to the land of snow to find substitute material. Later, I can try to capture creatures with nature energy." Casting a breeze lift, Merlin flies to the location to land on snow.

On a snowy mountain, Merlin can be seen collecting various flowers and other natural resources. ' I don't think searching for resources by myself is efficient enough; I need to go to the village to find some helpers.' leaving the mountain, Merlin flew to the nearby village. "The land of snow is small, but it is more peaceful than other villages, and they have an unusually advanced level of technology when compared to other countries. I think I should open a hidden laboratory here." As he reached the village, Merlin saw people gathering near the power generator to get warm. ' The land of snow has the best condition for the flower of snow veil. If I can't find any substitution material here, I don't think I can find another substitute material.'
As Merlin walked to the village, he saw a traven crowded with civilians and mercenary Shinobi. Entering the traven, Merlin looked at the group of civilians walking up to them. Merlin spoke, "Hello, I am a traveling doctor, and I am here looking for herbs found in Snow Land. Would any of you be willing to help me?" Hearing that, the civilian looked at him and said, "You are a doctor; if you could pay, I will help."
" How about this? As long as you find a rare and valuable herb, I will pay 1000 yen each." Listening to this, the people looked at him in disbelief. "I will be staying on the inn around the corner; if you are able to find anything, come to me; I will pay upfront," said Merlin, leaving the traven.
