When Kyran turned 18, his life turned upside down. The Royal Army raided his clan because his supposedly non-existent magic got exposed. On that fateful night, he was the only one who escaped. Up to the present, the status of his clan was unknown. A magic inheritance that became a curse, Kyran became a fugitive. Always on the run... living in fear when the Royal Army finally captures him. At least that's what most people thought... "I'll definitely save my family. And I will make all those who made my clan suffer pay tenfold. I'll make use of this magic they so feared, and show them what real terror is...." Disclaimer: The cover image isn't mine. I'll replace it when I finished mine.
When the dagger-wielding enemy mage first reacted to the Dragon Steps, Kyran wondered if he had a way of tracking him through his innate magic. Kyran considered the former to possess a rare innate ability of precognition, which might have allowed him to see the future for a few seconds. Kyran then thought that by moving faster than the enemy mage's precognition could reveal his next position, he might be able to find a breakthrough and gain an advantage.
In the end, Kyran deemed that increasing the Dragon Steps' speed was not the answer. If the enemy mage's innate ability were indeed precognition, it would not be limited to predicting his movements. On the off chance that the enemy mage predicted Kyran's plan, then everything would have been pointless.
But something changed Kyran's mind about his initial assumption of the enemy mage's innate ability.
