The Blessed and Cursed

Within a mansion in Liv, a man who had just arrived in front of his master's study, knocked three times before getting a confirmation to come in, which he did.

He bowed before stating what he came for. "Lord Zelcry, young master Val is done with his training for today, and as usual, he performed excellently. His talent is probably even higher than the older young master."

He had promised himself years ago to only deliver good news to his master and it worked perfectly, making him soar through the ranks and become his master's right...no, left-hand man.

After acquiring such a position, he was forced to deliver some bad news eventually, but today was not one of those days.

"I see," the man behind the desk said with mixed emotions in his eyes. "How is he handling his isolation?"

"The same way my lord. Impassively and unbothered," he replied. "Check up on his state and if you judge him fit, take a few men and escort him for a stroll. It's not good to keep him isolated for a long time."

His eyebrows furrowed after hearing this but they immediately went back to normal,.

"Yes, my Lord. If you'll excuse me," he said before walking out and closing the door.

As he headed to Val's room, a lot of thoughts were going through his head.

Even though young master Val was good at heart and a very nice boy, there was something about him that only a few people knew.

This wasn't about him being a cursed, it was because he was a kind of cursed that was heard about in stories.

Divine energy was the essence of supernaturalism. People who can wield it possessed different types of abilities, from healing injuries to producing fire from their hands.

But this Divine energy is divided into two types.

Positive and negative.

Hence, the terms Blessed and Cursed.

The Blessed are those who possess positive Divine energy while The Cursed are those with negative Divine energy.

The abilities of the Blessed and Cursed varied. While the Blessed could possess abilities such as healing, protection, flight, and elementals which could be considered good, the Cursed could possess abilities like poisoning, corrosive touch, and mind manipulation which could be considered evil.

It wasn't as though the curse was tagged as evil beings and though they suffered some discrimination and more wariness from people, there wasn't any social isolation as both Blessed and Cursed attended the same school for Divines as they were usually called.

There have been occasions where a cursed ended up saving a lot of people and where a blessed committed genocide.

So to say again, he didn't have a problem with Val being a cursed, but there was something else.

Val wasn't just a cursed, ...he seemed to be a cursed divine manifest.

Deities are immortal supernatural beings who are believed to have been born by nature. They have strength beyond what any human could ever hope for and some of them are even believed to be able to create Divines.

There was something called The Slumber. This was where a deity would go into temporary death and it is said that some of them pass on their will to humans which boosts their divine abilities multiple folds, making them capable of things no human normally shouldn't.

This often came with a task that they would have to complete.

Deities were also separated as some use positive divine energy while others negative. Unlike humans, deities who use negative divine energy are totally evil, and even though they aren't, a large portion of them would and so was their will.

The passing on of this will to someone is what is called divine manifestation.

There hasn't been any sighting of someone with a divine manifestation for over a hundred years and most people were beginning to believe that it was just a tale.

If this was the case with Val then he could be considered a rare evil, depending on whose will he bared.

This made him keep his distance away from him even though he loved the boy, to secure his life.

What even made this worse was that he always had an indifferent, calm expression, which made it difficult to read what he was thinking.

How they got to know about his manifestation, was when he killed a man who was sent by a rival of his family to assassinate his elder brother who was the heir.

They were completely overwhelmed by this man despite both of them being divines. Well, that was to be expected as they couldn't use their abilities until they turned 16.

Val's brother was a blessed unlike him.

Although he didn't have much details of what happened, it was said that the assailant's head suddenly shot out from his neck when he was just an inch away from claiming his brother's life and Val who was the one that did this didn't even flinch after killing someone for the first time.

His brother on the other hand was traumatized for weeks not just because of the death of the man but also how his younger brother looked. This was expected as he was ten back then while Val was seven.

His father immediately covered everything up, isolating and monitoring him.

But today, his father had decided that he should go out which was something that happened rarely.

With all these thoughts in his mind, the walk to Val's room which was separated from others seemed short as he was now staring at the door.

He took a deep breath before knocking.

"Come in." The voice of a child was heard from within before he pushed the door open. His eyes were greeted by the sight of a boy who was seated on a chair while reading a book that he held.
