Become a top mage at all costs

Eileen Caldwell had always been the epitome of a laid-back individual. From her early years to her teens, her passion for leisure rivaled that of any professional napper. School was merely a necessary inconvenience, and she found herself comfortably situated at the bottom of her class hierarchy, much to the chagrin of her teachers and the bemusement of her peers. However, all of this changed on her 18th birthday signaling her transition into adulthood, a mysterious system was activated, one that would upend her world of sloth and slumber. Gone were the days of lounging around without consequence; instead, Eileen found herself thrust into a destiny she could scarcely have imagined. This newly activated system, with its stern mandate against idleness, revealed to Eileen her true potential: she was destined to become one of the most formidable mages the world had ever seen. No longer could she while away the hours in blissful ignorance; instead, she was called upon to harness her latent magical abilities and rise to the challenge that lay before her.

There is no mistake

The adrenaline still coursed through my veins as I made my way out of the warehouse, but my thoughts were elsewhere. That little girl... I had to find her parents. It was the least I could do before heading back to the demon realm. As much as I wanted to rush back to confront Thalira and reclaim Eileen, I couldn't leave the girl to fend for herself.

I found her sitting on the steps outside the warehouse, her eyes wide with fear and confusion. She looked up at me, clutching a ragged stuffed animal to her chest. She looked kind of cute.

"Hey there," I said gently, crouching down to her level. "It's okay now. The bad demon is gone."

Her lower lip quivered, but she managed a nod. "T-thank you."

"What's your name?" I asked, offering her a reassuring smile.

"Lucy," she whispered.

"Alright, Lucy. Do you know where your parents are?"
