"john!" a soft an angelic voice can be heard from a wooden house, the house was very large for a wooden home, and it was well cleaned, it even had a well trimmed yard, but it was isolated from the rest of RoseCrown Kingdom, the house was on a hill that was at the edge of the kingdoms borders, looking from the porch of the wooden house one could see the great view of a large kingdom that went on as far as the eyes can see.

in that porch was that of a little boy, he had pale skin and blue eyes, his silver hair short and well groomed, it was none other than john.

"I can't believe that old basterd kicked us out of the kingdom, luckily mother had saved enough in her life to buy this land and build this house or we would have been on the streets" john said as he gazed at the kingdom.

"I will make you regret this one day you old geezer" john proclaimed as he looked at the kingdom with that of a smile on his face.

"john!!" his mother voice sounded even more furious this time, "john RoseCrown, you better come here this instant" john had a shiver down his spine as he heard his mother's voice.

He instantly ran into the house where his mother greeted him with folded arms, she was in a tightly fitted white suit and by her waist was that of a wooden practice sword.

"john, I know it is harsh for a child your age but this world have no place for the weak, you may lack in mana but their are other ways to climb to the top of the world, and lucky for you your mother knows a secret technique called demonic swordsman style" his mother said with a big smile as she extended the wooden katana to john.

"I will teach you all I know of this technique, I have mastered it to the point of 4th rank, after all" his mother spoke with absolute pride.

"Is it cause it's a 1st level technique mom" john spoke.

hearing this the woman almost coughed up blood, 'how can my loving child think of me so poorly, ofcourse it won't be hard for anyone to master a 1st level technique to 4th rank'

she smiled as she looked at her son and was ready to brag, "no john, you see when your father meet me it was on the battle field, I slaughtered many of his men and won his heart, they called me the white devil back then, but I never once relied on mana or my power, I have never once used magic in my life, although am born with it, the family that I am from are prohibited from using such cheats in life, we focus only on determination and raw strength, that's the only way to concur this world, this technique is a 6th level technique and it is rumored to be the broken down version of a legendary level 9th technique" his mother pride was showing the brightest in the room, her level of pride for her technique was unmatched.

"alright mother I accept you as my teacher, but I also wish to use my power to grow stronger" john said with pride as he looked within where their was a large source of power that flowed through him like a never-ending stream, 'who said that I didn't have mana, that old fool will be surprised when I concur this world with my monstrous mana' john thought as a smirk was plastered on his face.

his mother looked at her son with worries as she to thought that john had no mana, 'so young, he don't even know how this world works' she thought as tried to put on a smile to please her son.

"alright if that's what you wish my child, but first let me demonstrate the power of this technique that have been passed down in our family" his mother said as she stood freely and closed her eyes, in the next instance she began to breath slowly, but the strangest thing happened, the air around started to pull towards her nostrils like that of a vacuum.

john looked closely as he can see little blue sparks within the air as it was pulled towards his mother, looking towards his mother he realized that her skin started to glow a slight blue as she took in more of this sparks, then she finally breath out sending a gale of turbulent wind on a rampage in the room, the whole house shaked as everything in the room was now on the floor.

john was not affected by this but he was in a daze as he looked at his mother, her pale with skin had a slight blue glow and her iris was practically the color of the sky as by just looking in them one can feel its power.

"john, this is called demons breath, it's a level 7 breathing technique that have secretly been passed down in our family, demons breath allows one to take in mana from our surroundings and use it up in one go without any harm being done to the user, this is different from the inherited mana, inherited mana is like apart of your body without it you will die, those that use their own mana cannot use more than 80% of it in a battle which can put you at a disadvantage if you hit this mark while in a life or death situation, but for the demons breath we can always inrich ourselves with mana even in the heat of battle, it may have its disadvantages where as it cannot be use for anything other than to strengthen your body but it's advantages far surpass it's disadvantage"

john mouth was wide open as he was in denial, if what his mother said was true this technique would be unmatched in any fight, all that needs to be done is to drag on the fight as long as possible which would drain the other person's mana.

"don't get careless though my son, their are monsters in this world that are blessed with mana like that of your father, our fight lasted 2 days, and in the end I was the one that lost" his mother said coldly as she remembered their battle, her cheeks turned red under her blue glow as she pictured the day she fell in love.

john looked at her like if she was a mad woman, 'even after kicking us out you are still inlove with that fool, oh I wish that I never fall this mad in love' he thought as he felt pity for his mother.

"eehmm" his mother cleared her throat as she began to walk towards the back of the house, "come let me show you the sword technique that would make you beg to be my student" she said as she continued walking.
