----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read on mobile device for best experience. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Having lost his parents at a young age and not having access to a home since it had burned to the ground after a sudden outburst of flames, Arthur was taken in by the council of sorcery. Not because they had felt sympathy for him but simply due to the fact that even though his parents had been burned to ashes, Arthur did not even have a single scratch on his body. Now intrigued by the boy, the council of sorcery sent their most obedient servant; the one they call “the inspector” to relocate Arthur into a prestigious school so that his strength could bloom so that they could have a powerful ally in the future. Even so, the council of sorcery commanded that the school treated him like trash. This was because Arthur’s parents were quite powerful in their prime and as such were sought after by the council of sorcery. Even though it was an amazing offer for Arthur’s parents, they refused which invoked the long lasting rage of the council of sorcery. In a world full of factions that try to sway the tides of power to their own side, Arthur must now learn how to grow strong so he could finally find the person who had killed his parents and get revenge for the years of torment that the council of sorcery had put him through. Although he just might get quite a bit more than he bargained for. —————————————————————————————————————————— Note: This story will be quite long since there are a lot of things that need to be covered in the story. Sadly though, I’m fueled by compliments so the more people that enjoy this novel, the more I can write. Schedule plan for this novel is 2 chapters a day, 1000+ words each or if does quite well, it will be moved up to 3 chapters a day (same number of words each). —————————————————————————————————————————— Hope you enjoy this novel though, happy reading.
"Tier 10 Spell: Dimensional Split"
The general for Saturn yelled out as he swiftly cut through the air which seemingly sliced through Arthur's head perfectly in half and the boy had been cut in half vertically.
"Even if you're claimed to be so strong, you're no match for I, the general of Saturn, Cronos!" the general yelled out in pride as he announced his victory and Arthur's body simply laid there unconscious as he began to lose all his blood in a matter of seconds. Although he could move or speak, for some reason everyone in the town could hear the sound of some laughter.
"Huh? Who's laughing?" Cronos asked to which Arthur's body began to get up before reforming back to its original form. More over, it began to get covered in the skin of Lucifer as it was time for him to take over.
"Tier 15 Spell: World's End!"
Lucifer yelled out as a large orb of aura began to shape around his mouth before firing it like a cannon ball which caused it to explode and tear apart the entire town.
"It seems I've underestimated you," said Cronos with a sinister laugh as there were only a few scratches on his body as he walked out of the smoke which was caused by the explosion.
"I didn't want to use this yet but I guess it's time I do this. I've been waiting to use this for a very long time," said Cronos as he pulled out an orb like artifact from his pocket and crushed it.
"Equip: Heaven's Armour!"
As if a ray of light had come out of no where, it began to surround Cronos in its glory before at some point completely shrouding him so much that only the figure of his body could be seen and nothing else.
A few seconds later, Cronos had walked out of the ray of light with a full set of magnificent armour. He had a rather arrogant smirk on his face however he looked completely sure of himself that he would be victorious in his battle. There was absolutely no doubt on his mind that Arthur would be completely helpless in the moments that would follow.
"Tier 16 Spell: Balance Breaker"
With a scream, Arthur announced his next move which needed him to place both his palms forward and begin to grip onto the air without completely balling his palm. As if he was struggling, Arthur began to pull on the air which allowed the spell to take into effect as the literal world began to crack. Even Cronos could see the air beginning to shatter which caused him to gasp in surprise as he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Even so, while this went on, Cronos remembered that he had been wearing his full set of heaven armour which brought a sense of reassurance to him which allowed him to gently place his palm forward and simply wave the cracks in the air away as if they were nothing.
"Dammit! Why won't he go down!" Lucifer said as he began to grit his teeth.
"I might as well end this here with my most powerful spell. This should be enough to completely erase you out of existence. Although I had wanted to use this in the main battle for the first time so that I would be able to shock everyone, you leave me no choice. It was nice meeting you, perhaps I'll meet you once again in the afterlife when my life has taken its course. As for you, you will be getting sent there earlier than expected," said Cronos before preparing to cast what he called his ultimate spell.
"Tier 25 Spell-" Cronos had begun to cast his spell before stopping as a rather calm figure placed his palm on Cronos' shoulder to which Cronos looked angry at first but after seeing who it was, it seemed that he had calmed down before saying some final words to Arthur.
"It seems I didn't get a chance to use this on you yet. Well, I guess I'll be able to use it on the main battle field then. See you there," said Cronos with a smirk as he didn't realize that if he had decided to go forward with his attack, Lucifer would be in a position to draw out his more powerful spells instead of limiting himself to mere tier 20 spells at max.
Right as Cronos teleported away, Lucifer began to retract back into Arthur' body so that Arthur would be able to take control over his own body one again. However Lucifer seemed to have forgotten that although Arthur had trained so much, he still wasn't on the level he needed to be to tackle tier 20 spells casually like Lucifer had done so. As such, just as Arthur managed to get a hold of his own body once again, he instantly passesed out from exhaustion and as such began to sleep on the ground of the town or at least what used to be the town as the battle between Cronos and Arthur had caused a great portion of the town to be erased.

"What time is it?" Arthur asked himself as he had awoke from his slumber with a confused face as he didn't understand how much time had passed during the time he was asleep but judging by how he usually slept after a long battle, Arthur was scared that he had been asleep for quite a while.
"Hey Lucifer! I've got a bad feeling right now, can you teleport me to Sofia's house?" Arthur asked to which Lucifer complied and as Arthur walked in, his fears had been confirmed, she wasn't there.
"I knew it, even as injured as she was, she tried to look for me," Arthur said to himself while gritting his teeth in anger at himself.
"Lucifer, I don't know why I'm able to feel this way but it's almost as if I can sense bad things that are happening in this world. Can you teleport me to the precise location that Sofia is at?" Arthur requested to which Lucifer granted his request without much thought as he was doing it without thinking which was probably not for the best seeing as what events would transpire in a few moments.
