Chapter 1

My Name is Lee Saladin, 15 years old, Black hair, Black eyes, and White Skin, tall but not that tall, about 177 cm I think, My Father is Xin Saladin and My Mother is Ying Saladin, My Father works as a Poet and Chef, He never wanted to be paid but only accept Donations, We are currently living in Qanthanor, Our Vast world, full of magical beings from Magical Beasts, Elementals, Elves, Centaurs, Angels, Druids, Dwarves, Sirens, Goblins, Orcs, Demons and of course Humans.

The country that we live in is called the Great Alliance Country, It's formed after the appearance of a new threat, Undeads.....

They appeared 4000 years ago when Qanthanor was still divided by races, after their appearance, we race all join together as one and managed to defeat them, their Undead King or Lifeless King are sealed and their army crumbled.

All the Races saw what can they achieve when working together as one so we decided to keep the Alliance as a country that is divided by Each race have a leader and have their territory to manage, now we live in peace until a few years ago, beings called Hives appeared, due to an anomaly that made them appeared from a Portal that let them in, now we lost 50% of Qanthanor and We bound together to defeat this Invaders, yet our fight is still going to this day.

I am 15 years old now, and next year I am sooo going to enlist to the Alliance Military Academy, My footsteps on becoming a General begins there, well right now I have absolutely no talent at all, probably cooking, singing and do poetry, well not reliable for war at all.

I wanted to learn how to do combat but with who... I'm just a normal human being, not like elves that can do magic, Magical beasts that can also do magic, well pretty much every other races can use magic but humans, only a selected few can use magic, humans need to be blessed by The Elven Holy Priestess to use magic but only to a limited amount, so Human mages in the army can be counted by fingers since humans have high reproduction rate we are put as the main force, the melee combatants, because of that Human soldiers experienced hell first and also died first, There is only one Human that became a Grand Dragon General, the man blessed by The Elven Queen and by the Dragon King(Dragons are leaders amongst the Magical Beasts) and he fought Archangel Lex which he won even though it's only a normal spar the fact that he won doesn't change, his name is Quentin Syamsuri, sadly he doesn't leave any descendants due to a battle with the undeads that left him a curse that doesn't allow him to have descendants this is really a heavy blow to the human race after he passed away at the age of 68 the Alliance mourns for the hero to die and left nothing except for what he did when he was alive, he became Great Dragon General as his power is limitless and many Dragons bow to him and also the Entire Races paid respect to him as his body is being buried, he became the symbol of The Human race but that was 4000 years ago and I am going to be next I can feel it.

I live in Gruin, a peaceful village near the border, between The Alliance and The Hives, so it's not really that rare to see other races wandering around here, as our Alliance's army is a mixture of all the races within Qanthanor, you could say that Humans have the highest population, but we can't use magic like the Elves, Demons, and Druids, we aren't as strong as Magical Beasts, Orcs, and Centaurs, Our Craftmanship is still below the Dwarves and the Goblins, we can't breathe underwater like Sirens, we're pretty much useless but we survived, due to Quentin Syamsuri, man I wish he was alive today.

I am currently working in a bar that is owned by my dad, it's a pretty simple bar and we have customers from across the lands just to try my dad's cooking, he is the best cook on these lands, he won the Annual Qanthanor Cooking Competition, and He also won the Best Poetry of The Year 10 times, and mom is such a beauty compared to my dad who looks really simple, I guess he got her using food and poetry, he taught me how to cook since I was 7 years old, and taught me Poetry by 8 years old, with enough experience I replaced him to cook if he ever gets tired, and mom would wait behind the counter to take orders, I'm usually the one that took the orders, but incase dad is tired I'm cooking the food.

I began to saw the world differently when 7 beautiful females that come from a different race entered, I saw a Demoness, an Angel, a Druid, a Siren, an Elf, a Magical Beast taking a Humanoid appearance, and a Human, all of them looked fantastic you could easily guess the Demoness is a Succubus, due to her attractiveness, her black hair suits her, the Elf is pretty beautiful with her white skin and her Silky Blonde hair, not Like the Succubus, which has a dark skin, alluring body, revealing clothes, and her gaze that can bewitch any man that looked at her, the Druid looks cheerful with a warm smile on her face, her green hair also enchants nearby men, she has a skin white as snow you can see her wearing a crown made of vines, it's pretty cute actually, the Magical Beast girl is a dragon by the looks of it, Her skin has traces of scale even though only a little and she gave an intimidating aura and her face gave off a Cold beauty kind of air, her hair is white, like really snow white, her skin seems so smooth with a light brown color, the Siren is also beautiful with her red hair and she wore a dress and seems walking with legs, I guess she cast a spell to change her fin temporary into a pair of legs, she's smiling while talking with the Druid, she is carrying a trident into a bar for some reason, but I really want to hear her sing, as I heard that a siren's voice can melt every man's heart, and the human seems to be from a noble family, I can tell from her expensive looking clothes and her Blonde hair and blue eyes since the majority of nobles looked like that, I just have a feeling that she is a noble.

They approached me and when they're in front of me I asked,

"Can I help you?" The Noble girl then said

"Yes, we would like 7 of your best special fried rice" The Elven girl explained further

"We heard that this is the bar Xin Saladin owns, the winner of Alliance Cooking Competition so we think we might try it"

So I answered

"Okay, so 7 Special Fried Rice, Spicy or no?"

The Noble girl answered

"1 spicy and the others not spicy, Melinda here likes her food spicy, well that's a dragon for you" she pointed at The Dragon girl, which appears that her name is Melinda, but I have no idea what kind of dragon she is, there are 4 Kinds of dragons, Fire, Ice, Sky, and Ground, well whatever not like I care,

I nodded and then write it down then brought the paper to my dad that is cooking in the kitchen, but since we have a window that connects the kitchen with the counter I gave it to him there and said

"7 Special Fried Rice, 1 Spicy 6 Normal, for table 8"

My Dad responded "Okay son, help me out here a little, i'm a little tired, let your mom handle the counter for a bit" So I put on my Apron and then talk to the girls

"Your order has been recorded and take this sign, your sign is 8, we will deliver it shortly and that will be 7 Gold Coins, "

The noble girl nodded and the Elven girl waves her hand, and a Dimensional Storage appeared, it's kind of looks like a portal, she put her hand in and grabbed 7 gold coins and gave it to me, That Storage seems convenient, I think i should consider getting one.

I bowed and said "Thank you, please wait at a table and we will deliver it to you"

They left and then sit on a nearby table, and went into the kitchen to help my Dad, Mom came out from the Kitchen and then said

"Good work, now help you father", She's a 50 year old woman and she looks rather old yet her warm attitude made me love her so much and she's always kind to me, "Help him, or he might burn my new wooden decoration in the kitchen, I might scold him for that" She smiled and then quickly left for the counter, I went to my Dad and he smiled right at me while saying "Come here son, Your Fried rice are always better than me, And I can't figure out why, come cook it, I might learn a thing or two", I Smiled as I walked right at him and grabbed the Spatula and Frying pan and said "Watch and Learn".
