The Massive Magic Circle.

Two years have passed since I was reincarnated and I have learned a lot of things about this new world, many things have become clearer to me.

The Kingdom of Ameria is a second rate kingdom under the jurisdiction of the Stardust Academy which is a school for mages and they have control over other kingdoms besides Ameria.

The world structure is simple and somewhat complicated. The Stardust Academy has jurisdiction over other kingdoms besides the Kingdom of Ameria but they don't interfere in the way these kingdoms rule their subject.

The Academy imposes nothing upon them but these kingdoms under them deems it a thing of prestige for any of their citizens to be able to gain admission into the academy because its admission criteria are too strict.

The Kingdom of Ameria have seen some of its citizens gain admission into the academy and go ahead to become very powerful individuals and a good example is their current king.

Every family and household of these kingdoms under the Stardust Academy jurisdiction have always wanted their children to gain admission into the academy but the ability to use magic itself is a struggle for most of them and sometimes this things are nothing more than wishful thinking.

My life has been smooth sailing with nothing to worry about and I have been having the best time of my life.

When I clocked five years of age, my father got me a teacher to teach me magic and I was assigned two maids to take care of me.

One of the maid is a young lady who looks to be around the age of 15 and the other was 13 years of age. Just eight to ten years age difference.

My magic teacher is a very talented and popular mage and it was said that he once went to Stardust Academy but was unable to graduate. Learning magic was a new thing for me which I was very eager and excited for and it was fun.

The children in this world have to reach the age of ten before they can awaken and their mana core will be formed therefore granting them the ability to use magic.

Before I clocked five years, I didn't learn many things related to magic, it's not that I didn't want to learn but my family was not a family of mages.

The ability to use magic in this world was called blessings from the heavens and any child that awakens the ability to use magic was nurtured and raised very well by their individual family because the family has the belief that the child will become a very powerful person in the future.

Before the age of ten which is the age of awakening, each child is taught the basics of magic so as to prepare them for the future.

My parents did the same as every other parents but they did not put much pressure or expectations on me being able to use magic, which I was grateful for.

My classes were very interesting and fun. When any child that has the ability to use magic awakens, they are first tested for their elemental affinity.

Some are born with one elemental affinity while some are born with more than one elemental affinity.

Children who have affinity to rare attributes like space, light, darkness, lightning and life elements are directly scouted by the Stardust Academy, the reason is because these children are geniuses and they are always dual elementals wielder.

Those who have no elemental affinity are those who can't use magic and they either join the military or become court members.

I have been learning magic and I have come to know a lot of things about it.

My classes were always filled with new knowledge everyday and my teacher has always been kind to satisfy my curiosity and he praises me most times for being a very intelligent child and he always says to my parents whenever I impress him and I quote:

"Edward is a very talented boy and I'm very sure he will be able to use magic and luckily he may have an affinity to a rare element".

Whenever I'm not learning about magic or reading anything I will be with my mother and my maids.

My mom May, doesn't like leaving me out of her sight and she always makes sure to spoil me rotten. If not for my dad I'm very sure I would have become a spoiled little brat, but he always makes sure to discipline me whenever I do something wrong and I'm very appreciative of that.

The love of a family which I lost in my previous life that I got back in this life always makes me happy and their loving parental gestures and care always brings warmth to my heart.

My routine everyday was either to attend my magic classes except days that I have no class or whenever my teachers couldn't make, read, play and sleep.

I literally do nothing at home except things mentioned above and my chores like my laundry and cleaning of my room are done by my maids.

At age seven I started training my body as per my father's request that I train and discipline myself. He said that even though he's not a mage, he knows that a mage will need a strong and healthy body to be able to go far in his or her future endeavors and if I don't awakens the ability to use magic I will be able to protect even with the little strength I have.

So I have been training and building my body in the event of anything occurring and I got another activity added to my already existing routine but all in all it was still fun and exciting for me.

The days went by and it was remaining six months until the day I clock ten years of age and awakens and awakens.

During my days of learning and training, I usually have the guards accompany me adventuring into a forest close to the mansion.

We spent our time in the forest hunting wild beasts and sometimes we come across magical beasts and whenever we come across them we do what people do best with our legs, RUN.

Our worst outing had been when one of the guards broke his leg when he was running and trying to save me from a magical beast.

When we got back home I received plenty of scolding from my mom. Her face was full of tears as she scolded and spank my little butt.

The scene broke my heart so much that I never dared to go close to the territories of those magical beasts and my adventuring days were limited.

One day after training, I took my guards and went adventuring into the forest again and we planned not to go deep so as to not encounter any magical beast. When we got to the forest it was quiet, we thought it was because we were still in the outer region but when we got to the inner region the quietness was scary and yet comforting.

"Young master, the forest is too quiet and it's very scary, why don't we go back and come back another time." One of the ad guards said to me.

"Young master he's right, we don't know what's going on in the forest, it will be best if we leave and come back another time so as not to get caught in whatever is going on here." The other guard who was also trying to persuade me to leave added.

No matter what they say to me I didn't listen but kept on moving ahead and we got to the deepest part of the forest and it was still very quiet but as a person who has lived for twenty years on Earth, my mental fortitude was almost at its peak.

"Come on guys, let's go deeper and see what is going on in this forest that made all the beasts both wild and magical so quiet." I said to trying to persuade them.

The two guards looked at me helplessly as they know that no matter what they say I won't change my mind.

"Okay, young master but if anything happens we will quickly escape from this place" one of the guards said and the other nodded his head in agreement.

"Okay, I promise" was what what I said to placate them.

We kept on walking deeper into the forest and we started seeing some wild beast after walking more distance forward but they were dead and most of them did not have any sign of injury while some bled from their orifices.

The sight was scary but we continue walking and along the way we saw different dead wild beasts on the floor.

We continued until we got to a large expanse of open field with a large magic circle on the floor. The circle was very large and it was emitting a very massive magical energy. The magical energy in the air was spiking up continuously and I could see many wild and magical beasts on their belly groaning, even my guards were kneeling down with their head to the ground.

Why I'm still standing, even I myself don't know. I took a few steps forward and stepped onto the magic circle and it lit up.
