1 CHAPTER 1: WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

Why mother,why must stay back here to look after Raya when the vice captain of duke three and the best of his men would be arriving here soon. Dear Neon although none of the top men belonging to the third duke Hazral is above a grade five knight but let remind you that one of the popular dukes assistant, vice captain Roval, assistant to duke three who is classified as a fourth class upper mage will also be arriving with his comrade. Neon's mother said as she gently slid her hand over his head and ever so gently rubbed his blond hair. So how does that have to do with me staying here with Raya he responded obviously getting frustrated.A baby of about a month like Raya must for no reason be exposed to such intense amount of mana which is being emitted from all mages that is being classified at least above grade five level mages, if exposed Raya might likely if lucky get very ill, or worse loose her memory, and if its so bad that she can not handle it she might likely die. Now I do not want that to happen and I am so sure you don't either. Neon was very heart broken of course he did not want raya to suffer from memory loss, get ill or die on the bright side this was a great opportunity for him to see or witness even a knight mage in action. But that was also the cause of his problems,if the knights were to perform or maybe display any form of attack or defensive spells of any sort that required a relatively large and massive amount of mana or escape of ones mana aura then that would be enough to cause damage to his little sister Raya, so it was better not to go against his mothers wish, but to enjoy the long bored night alone with his baby sister who apparently have no idea of what was going on but was just staring in uttermost confusion at neon and then to her mother.To think that one of my greatest dreams would get crushed by its own downside, how ironic he taught to him self as he clenched his fist. He completely understood what point mother was trying to make but the thought of him loosing such a golden opportunity was rubbing off his good side and leaving him with an endless supply of negative emotion which was now being displayed on his face.

Ever since that day he was saved by a knight mage from a devastating monstrous looking danger beast, growing as a child he had trained severally not only in combat and body build exercise or task but he had managed to learn a few spell and this this was his chance to prove to the knight mages that he was good enough to become one of them and serve the imperial capital a place where royalties resided. Since most with royal blood line resided in the imperial capital the royal castle was situated there,hence it was considered the kingdom safest city as it was heavily guarded.Because of this courtesy of the royal family it was almost impossible to survive there as the prices of almost everything went sky high making high ranked Nobles the only non royalties capable of dwelling there with ease He had heard of how they have being visiting other small villages like theirs taking people they thought had potentials and promising future if given an opportunity and now they were in their village as well. But however it did not matter any more because he would not be attending. Noticing his face his mother placed her hands on his chin, but before she could utter a word a loud sound of trumpet could be heard. Hearing this she put on her hooded cloak concealing her face and her long blond hair. Don't feel so lonely i will be back in an hour she said as she shut the door.

********

A while after she left, even Raya had slept off out of boredom. After what felt like hours of waiting neon was starting to get worried. She said she would be back in an hour but this is far past two hours he said to him self as he paced back and forth. Moment later what he least wanted at the moment occurred as Raya woke up with an ear piercing cry he tried all he could to make her stop all to no avail, but when he least expected it she stopped and immediately a loud *BANG* was hared, and next the scream of many people could be hared.
