The Mysterious Sect (A Progressive High-Fantasy)

A thief, an orphan, and living on a street. Vega had nothing going for him. Adding a noble threatening his life, he needed a new life. A ship, a new unchartered island, and a new life? Sounds great. But, it's not his time to die. A beautiful noble saved him for her own gains and left him to discover the new world on his own. Vega had to do something to survive, faking his kindness, he friended a knight in shining armor getting to know the world that seemed too magical for him. But then harnessing his power was not as simple as waving wands and saying the spell. And also, the whole murmurs about a new faction riding their flying swords and kidnapping the apprentices? Not crazy at all. Are they really bad or there's more to it than just a difference in ideology?
