6 Chapter 6: Good guys

The Magus Emperor was not only an honorary title, which men could give. The Magus Emperor was a person chosen by the gods. Like some kind of fused pope has Jesus. The magus emperor according to legends could perform spells of divine rank. In one day it could destroy an entire country, but it could just as easily bring the dead back to life or drive the madmen to their senses. Of course the emperor magus was a good person by nature.

According to legend, the wise emperor held a gold ring that he held only the one who could wear. This ring actually tightened the one who chose who was able to control the divine magic and become a magician emperor. The last emperor to have existed was Merlin the Almighty, master of nature, the man with a billion magis. According to the legend Merlin could merge with any creature on earth so share their feelings their joys as well as their pains. He would have put an end to the wars during his reign. But after his death the rings would have disappeared.

Throughout his childhood Prometheus had dreamed of becoming a magician emperor, but after his mother's death the child in Prometheus had died and the desire for revenge had sprung in his mind, and it was rooted forever, the day he passed the free entrance test for magic school... (but this story is for another time.)

Jeanne had just come into the room, she was bringing the food as usual. But to her great surprise when she entered the room she saw Prometheus greeting her and then got up from his bed. Normally no matter what time she came, Prometheus would always find himself closed-eyed mumbling unintelligible words. In fact, when Prometheus did this he used a spell of rank 0 invigoration this spell had the effect of accelerating the healing of the mana brain and body. After getting up Prometheus tried to do some pats but he stumbled very quickly. After this half success Prometheus got up and asked Jeanne who remained to fix him with astonishment.

- Where is your master, that man with red hair?

- You mean Leo Master.

- Probably.

- He is in the garden, supervising the training of new recruits.

- Training?

- Yes. Come down after dinner you'll see, I'm sure Master Leo will be delighted to see you feel better, young man.

Prometheus followed Jeanne's advice and lay down on the bed. He took the tray Jeanne was holding out to him and then started eating. He took his time and didn't leave a single crumb. Then he handed it to Jeanne, who had to wait until Prometheus had finished. He got up, after giving Jeanne the pallet. But before leaving to join Master Leo, Prometheus stretched his muscles, he suffered from excruciating pain throughout his body after 2 weeks of muscle inactivity. Then after stretching he came out of the room and started looking for the garden.

The first thing Prometheus noticed during his research was that he was in a large building, the second was that there were a lot of people living in that building and the last was that a lot of people here knew him. A group of twenty-year-old men called Prometheus.

- Hey, little one! You are the one who was taken in by the chief.

- I suppose so. Why? Why?

- I should be the one asking you why. Who are you, kid?

- I am an orphan.

- What a funny name....

- What? What? No... I'm... and fuck it... you know where the garden is.

- Yes, go down the stairs and turn right. Once you arrive in a large corridor, continue straight on until you reach another staircase. He'll take you to the garden.

- Thank you very much, sir.

After having made a bow Prometheus left and followed the path that the man had indicated to him. The men who had called him out, waved their hands at him and said in unison.

- Goodbye Orphan!

Prometheus laughed and mumbled.

- That it is a strange place filled with fools. Haha.

At that time Prometheus made his fourth observation, preceded by his fifth. It was that this place was filled with fools, and that his body was in a sorry state. After running two steps he fell. He couldn't control the trajectory of his fall and fell straight down the stairs.

After falling down the stairs, he lay on his back at the bottom of the stairs. He spoke to himself.

- That she's a shitty body.

The men who had just called Prometheus saw his fall, and ran to help him. After she assisted one of the men relieved him.

- Are you all right, Orphan?

- Yes... Yes, it's just that I don't have much strength or energy left.

- Don't tend to be small, we'll take you back to your room.

- No, I have to go see Mr. Leo.

The men all looked surprised. Mr. Leo was their leader, if this child were to meet him then he would help him.

- Don't worry, kid, I have an idea.

Prometheus thought inside that it must have been a bad idea given the stupidity of these men. But before he could express his doubt, he felt his feet leaving the ground and an incredible energy lifting him up with ease.

One of the men had just lifted Prometheus with one of his arms.

- You're lightweight, aren't you? Do they give you enough to eat Orphan?

- …..

Prometheus was shocked. He could not believe that he, the famous archimage with a thousand flames, had not succeeded in recognizing a fighter with a mana heart. But he was able to confirm that this man had a mana heart. When a person with the mana heart used it, his body was usually covered with a colored glow depending on his affiliation with the elements. This glow did not stay long and only appeared when the mana hearts were activated. As for this man, he was currently covered with a fine brown glow, he must have been affiliated with the earth.

- You see, kid, I'm gonna carry you to the chief. BOYSSS!!!!!! follow me..

The man started running at full speed with Prometheus under his arm.

- I'm not a handbag, at least put me on your back. And you sweat!!!!!!! STOP using your mana heart and it makes you sweat.

- The man wearing Prometheus and his acolytes laughed as they continued to run.
