THE BEGINNING

"500 years ago dragons ruled over our world witch known as Eskonia."

A beautiful woman with long brown hair around the age 24, holding a storybook in her hand, was reading a story to a boy who had white hair and red pupil.

That boy currently sat by her side and listening to her with avid concentration.That woman with a gentle smile on her face continued reading " Dragons are vicious and ruthless, they destroyed many villages for their pleasure, if someone ever happened to oppose or offend them, dragons burned them alive with their flaming breath."

"Huuuuaaaa"

She made gestures of breathing fire out of her mouth to scare the boy, while poking on the stomach, then he started to giggle

"he he he"

"So the sea flames were seen everywhere, ashes ware in the air made it hard to breathe. The smoke of terror engulfed the Eskonia and the peoples ware suffering " at the end of sentence that woman made a sad expression that made the boy also feel sad but suddenly the woman widened her eyes and smiled with excitement and continued her story.

"but, the peoples of Eskonia suffered enough so they decided to stand against the dragons. Battles were fought, few were won at the cost of numerous innocent lives.The people of Eskonia started to lose hope until one person stood tall to bring all the races together and led them to the victory. He was non other than our first king of the human kingdom "RAMMIR X. AEDIGARR", a true hero who brought peace to this world." with a "thud" sound that woman closed the storybook and then looked at the kid and she was masmarised by the enthusiastic looks on the boy's face and spark in his eye.

She came back to reality when she heard the boy's calling to her "Mother, mother...I want to be a hero just like rammir and bring peace to this world" then the boy jumped and stood on the bed, raised one hand high above and the other one on the waist, with a bright smile on his face, he gave some kind of hero pose.

Looking at her son's hero pose women chuckle and said: "yes, yes....my harbinger of peace it's getting late, now sleep" She pulls him up and laid him on the bed.

"But, mother you didn't finish the story" with a reluctant look on his face he continued "please finish the story for me mother, I promise after that I will sleep"

She put the book on the table which was opposite side of the bed. she looked at him with a gentle smile, she replied " adles, tomorrow we are gonna leave for the temple and it will take a whole one day to get there. If you didn't take rest properly you may fall sleep on the road and maybe miss the chance to see the rainbow horn dear and I'm sure you don't want that right, so be a good boy and sleep"

"Of course I don't want that" adles replied with annoyed pouting face . It's the first time adles and his family were going on a vacation together, although it's not a vacation, but for adles it was a great opportunity to see the world outside the vinot village, where he was growing up.

Then she blew the candle and gave adles a good night kiss on the forehead and left the room While saying goodnight to him and closed the door on her way out.

The room was darkened only two red eyes were glowing brightly like jewels but in a few seconds soothing light of the full moon came through the window made the room slightly visible, adles looked at the bright moon outside. sometimes clouds were passing through while observing the view adles closed his eyes and thought about what his mother said 'Harbinger of peace, cool title'.

while fantasising about his futures endeavors adles chuckle, his eyelids felt heavy and he started to fall asleep.

- - - - - - - - -

Later at that night adles heard a mourning sound that woke him up, so out of curiosity he followed the sound to find the source, adles walked towards the door and slightly opened the door.

After opening the door He can clearly sence his father and mother downstairs in the dining room, he heard his mother talking with cracked voice "how can you be so sure? can't we just postponed the journey"

"No we can't, next month adles will turn 8 and you know how important Ragi Evaluation was?, every 5 to 10-year-old kid have to go through this process, our son's future depends on it, so Niela, I will say it again everything will be fine" with serious expression a man around age of 30 tried to explained his wife, that man had short black hair, black eyes and a good physique build with 6.4 ft hight, at first glance you can say that he falls into the handsome man's category.

While wiping her tear niela replied " Then Mathew, tell me if there is no future. you know very well that he is not normal like other child, tell me do you ever seen him cry ??, or fall sick and even his wounds heal quicker than normal human and more than that he is born with dragon's eyes, only this particular reason is enough to get us all killed "

Niela looked at her husband's unfazed expression then She Sigh continued "I want to say this when the time is right but looks like I have no choice"

" Mathew " with a serious expression on her face she announces " you are going to be father "

"Wa...What..?" At first, Mathew is shocked by the sudden news then he comes to senses with a bright slime on his face, he got up and got close to naila then hugs her and gave a kiss on her forehead and told her " how long you have been...why didn't you tell me sooner. It's great news we should celebrate, oh..ho..we definitely gonna celebrate.. "

Seeing her husband smiling, shouting, and jumping around the room like a child with happiness. She feels that she avoided the storm but Mathew's next comment darkens her expression.

"..when we come back from the temple "

Hearing her husband makes her furious, she slams on the table and stands up which made the chair fall on the ground, where she was previously set on and shouts at Mathew " why are you so persistent? Did you not care about me or the child who doesn't even born? Why do you want to take risk for a cursed child who doesn't even have your blood? Do you.."

"Bam"

Niela is startled by the sound that occurs due to Mathew slammed his hand on the table and a Crack appears on that area with small smoke that disappeared in a second, the sound of that slam was Echoes dew to quiet night or maybe the power, that he puts on that slam mack it much louder.

With bloodshot eyes, while grinding his teeth Mathew tells her "That's enough, I don't want to hear any word from you. That cursed boy, his name is Adles...Raivon...Duchalstaine and he.. is.. our.. son. No, my son and I will not tolerate any insult of my son not even from my wife"

Mathew was about to walk away from that room but niela grabs his hand. Mathew looked at naila, he saw streams of tears coming down from her eyes leading through her chick, she speaks with a shaky voice

"I..I'm..I'm sorry, I'm really..really..sorry"

"I'm just worried, worried about us, about our unborn child and..." she paused for a moment and looked at her husband with teary eyes as she continued " I'm also worried about adles too, you know very well that how much I care about adles but how much I tried, I...I just couldn't stand his eyes"

Niela tightened her grip on Mathew's wrist and while facing down, few drops of tears fell on the floor, with a trembling voice as she continued "if anybody finds out he have a dragon's eyes what will happen to him ? he will be hunted down for the rest of his life, i...if something happens to him I will never forgive myself "

Watching her cry like that Mathew understands that how much she cared for adles but her survival instincts telling her to run away as far as possible from those eyes and save her unborn child and her husband.

Mathew then gently grab the back of her head and pulled toward his chest with his other hand on her waist Mathew hug her, while comforting niela Mathew told her " you worry too much, nothing is going to happen us, you just have to calm down and be patient, we are all going to be fine"

While rubbing his hand on her head, observed that his wife was claim down a bit, so he continues with a smile " now we must rest, I don't want to see my beautiful wife's face with dark circles "

"Ouch..." Mathew grin in pain, because niela pinch Mathew's stomach with her all might for teasing her, with teardrop corner of his eyes, Mathew speaks while tapping on niela's shoulder.

" I yie...yield, you mack your point clear, I will never tease you"

Watching him pleading like that Niela released her husband and makes a grumpy expression, she looked at Mathew who is now rubbing his stomach where niela pinched earler while Macking a weird expression, Watching her husband's expression at first niela chuckle then she burst out of laughter, looked at her laugh like that Mathew also started to laugh.

Hearing his father and mother laughter adles sigh of relief because he didn't want his family to break because of him.

Adles closed the door sat on the bad and think about his father and mother conversation, he knows very well that he was not the same as other kids, his sense was higher than normal human he can see and hear far and red colored eye glow in the dark like some beast. His maturity level was higher than other kids who ware around his age and adles didn't have any friends, except one. he didn't leave the house so often even if he was outside he always ware blindfold and that's leads villagers to believe that adles was blind, they didn't know that it's all to keep there secret safe.

Adles's father was an ex-adventurer and now professional blacksmith. his father was very strong and simple-minded, he heard his father always says "keep your mind focus on one thing until you master it". He heard his father's many adventures stories from his mother, one that his father single handedly killed 4 oger and many more.about his mother, she grow up as a normal village girl while helping her father and mother in the house and firm.

Adlas knows very well both of there reaction about his eyes was quite normal, epically his mother's reaction, due to his acute sense he can feel his mother anger, fear and disdain emotions about his eyes but he can also sense his mother's love towards him.

While thinking of many things he come to one conclusion that if he didn't have these eyes maybe his parents will fight less their life will be much easier his mother will be less worried and cry less and maybe started to smile more genuinely, maybe his father will be more relaxed and not always on guard while they ware outside, maybe they can go often on vacation as a family or they didn't have to lie about his blindfold or maybe he can able to mack some new friends.

While thinking about that adles put his left-hand on the left eye, two fingers on the upper eyelet and thumb on the lower eyelet, he started to stretched his both eyelets and his eye started to expand and his eyeball started to slowly move forward.
