Lost Shadows

My name is Light Lioween. I was born into a world of magic. My family never had a history of having powerful mages or being the go-to on the subject of magic, but that all changed in one day.

Master

His body starts to gather with some shadows and in a blink of an eye he was already alive again.

"You're lucky it's not late night, otherwise... You would be dead already." After saying this the Lineage attacks him, but Joaquin joins the shadows and disappears.

My vision was starting to blur more and more. Before I close my eyes I see him coming at me.

When I wake up i see my body all bandaged up. I realize that I am in the Hestia's house for some reason.

I run to the receptionist and ask her who dropped me off. She explains that it was the Lineage of Thunder. This is a good time to ask what "Lineage" is.

"Lineage? What's this?".

"Oh, you don't know, do you? Well, the Lineage is the strongest squadron of mages. To become one, you have to be the best at your respective magic and have done things that are recognized."

"Where is he?".

"He's in a snack bar here in the caf--" .

I start running after the cafeteria.

When i arrive i see him eating and writing something. I go up to him and try to talk.

"You scared me, kid!" He says.

"Oh, sorry. Well, it's just that...".

"Just say it!".

"Well, ... sir could you... train me?".

"Before i answer, could you say your name?".

"Sure! My name is Light Lioween".

"Are you the boy i rescued from the abandoned street? That was your name from what i was told".

"Oh, yes. Thank you very much for saving me!"

"Relax, you don't need all that," he says with a big smile on his face.

"I would take you as my disciple, but you have a family to take care of, imagine what they would think when you just disappeared."

When he says this, i remember what happened to them. If i were stronger they wouldn't have to die?

"They are already dead... And the person who killed them was Joaquin." As i say this, my eyes starts to tear

"Well, you need to start going out on journeys, the mages already need to go out to start having a "name". It's a way for your house to be better known".

"So i accept you as a disciple!"

When he says this i start to smile, while also crying

"Thank you, for accepting me! Sorry to ask only now, but what is your name?".

"My name is Wendell Never. Losing important people is a normal thing for mages. It's hard to get over it all, but your parents would want you to become a mag--".

As he says it, I simply hug him and start crying like never before.

After he finishes his snack, we go back to the Hestia's house to tell that i would be going on a journey. Everything was very new to me, it was the first time i would be traveling in the world. Was the world really as green as i imagine it to be?

As i was lost amidst my thoughts, he asks me:

"Light, do you know how to use techniques freely? outside of battle i mean."

"No, i don't know much yet, i only used magic once."

"What happened when you used it?".

"An electric sword appeared in my hands."

His expression of surprise was remarkable.
