1 Ifrit, Djinn of Fire

Ares, a fine young boy who lived in the old village of Sabel, dreamed to be a great fighter for his nation like what his deceased brother became.

He loved doing swordplay witj his father when he was young, and helped his mother to cook at home and do some chores after, his older brother will come from fight back then, tired and restless.

"Brother, let me take off your gears" he askes

"I'm fine, Ares, go and stuff yourself up" his brother said while their mother prepares the supper

His brother set back to his room and removed the heavy armor and took off his clothes, Ares can see how terrible his bruises are, swelling and unrested.

"Get out!" his brother shouted when he noticed Ares peeking on him

Ares didn't hesitate and took some medicine for the wound and damped to his brother's wounds.

"Don't worry brother" he started

"I destroy the enemies, not for long" Ares spoke in an indistinct manner shocking his brother

It was like Ares speaking in an obnoxious way that his other side is the own taking over, something deadly and furious for revenge.

The night came and they all slept, except for Ares who taken a bag of clothes and set out in his journey.

He leaved a message for his family.

"Dear Mama and Papa, amd also my older brother Aries... Let me leave and be on my own, I am old enough to do what I want, I'll be searching for a dungeon to steal some djinn and tame it so that I can helped out the village of Sabel to prosper... And I love you"

No one knows the time Ares left, but they all knkw is that a creeping noise came from outside, hords of Phantom Troops, the enemy approached the village of Sabel that night after Ares leaved, the houses are burned into ashes and people dies, Aries, Ares' older brother couldn't do a thing because of his wounds.

The time Ares take a look back, he saw all the houses and animals cry in the devouring fire, a tear fell in his eyes, he suddenly ran and go back meters away to his village.

The time he got back, none alived is left, he can't even see his family and their houses are burned down totally, only the fragment of letter left alive.

"I'm taking on a journey..."

If he didn't only ran away this night, then they could've noticed the assault.

But Ares couldn't just blame himself, the palace should have known this assault, or maybe the palace had fallen.

Ares continue his journey in search of the djinns, crying still, he is young.

A week passed and he finally get to one of the dungeons where a djinn can be found, dungeons are great cavern that has a household vessel inside where the djinns are residing.

Ares just need to find the household vessel and rub the djinn out and make a contract with it.

He entered the cavern full of traps and dead ends, the cavern is a lava pit, full of molten rocks and lizards, the area is so hot that he couldn't last any longer.

But he persevere and kept going down further until he reaches the tomb of the household vessel.

There are 3 kinds of blades displayed in upon the tomb pointing to each other, Ares poked and touched each but nothing seemed different, he tried to rub all of them but no one appeared.

"Is this a joke?" he smirked

He hold the dagger and swiped the air, slicing through the heat wave.

He them get the knife, doing an impale and striking upfront him.

Lastly, he holds the sword with his both hands and sighs.

"A sword, like my brother's"

"With this I can cut through the Phantom Troops"

Ares putt his fingers on the base and slided it it to the tip of the edge, not knowing he bleeded his self,

Then suddenly a voice whispers.

"You who seek my sword shall be dealed with eternal depth!"

Incantations appeared in the sword and the two other blades are corrupted and turned to dust.

The cavern glows and red hot flames enveloped the whole area into combustion.

Although Ares didn't feel the unnerving heat anymore.

A djinn successfully appeared right in front of him, a lizard-like monster with horns like an antelope, a face like a satyr, but more like of human than beast.

He has red eyes with a sharp pupils.

"What happened to the other two?" Ares asked in shock

"Once the seeker decided the type of household vessel he wants, the others will turn to dust" the djinn explained

"I am Ifrit of the Flames!" it added

"Ifrit?" Ares repeated

"You as a servant of mine, what do you seek for calling out to me, I grant you 3 commands for whichever you want I will follow them" Ifrit said

"Djinns really give 3 wishes?" Ares joked

"You're a djinn, and you must helped me fight like what other Djinn Servants are" Ares demanded

"I guess my servant didn't understand what a Djinn Servant is... Fine... I'll educate you for a minute" Ifrit scolded

"Djinn Servants are the seekers that became the Djinn's partner with a contract of blood signage... By the blood the contract is sealed and the Djinn is yours until you consumed the 3 commands theut grant you..." Ifrit explained

"Then, how will you helped me if I can only command you 3 times?" the young Ares still didn't understand how it will work

"As long as the command is not yet fulfilled, we will be with you all the time, if your 3 commands are all fulfilled, then it will be farewell" Ifrit added

"Young boy, what is it that you seek?" he said in devious sound, flames screeching in combustion

"I want to save my family" Ares asked his 1st command

"Well then, let's save your family!" Ifrit growls and the whole cavern light up

It glows and the cave had disappeared like a flash, Ares and Ifrit is in the surfaced where Ares left his foot outside.

"Where's the dungeon?" Asked Ares with confusion

"It's gone... Shall we go and save your family?" Ifrit summoned his feet and walked front of him, raising his claws to him, simbolizing

'Come'.
