Time skip,

It has been 2 years since Axel had reached the Beginner realm. Many things have changed. Axel would wait every 3 months to meet with his mother. They would talk about every day things and Axel would explain his daily routine. Morganna would admire Axel's talent in swordsmanship and Axel would have a proud look plastered on his face. But no matter his talent, Axel still could not reach 'Intermediate realm' within these 2 years. It was not cause of Axel's lack of talent and hard work but the difference between the realm was higher than he expected.

However, his new talent had really helped him in his endeavors.

[Sword talent: It is a passive skill, where the host would have his sword comprehension increased. The increase would be directly relevant to host hard work. Could comprehend new skills faster than before]

The description of sword talent was simple and vague. However, Axel could feel his sword ability increase at a faster pace. Another quest was issued to reach the intermediate realm and the reward was unknown.

However, every other quest on completing certain moves resulted in an increase in the quality of his weapon. The improvement in the quality was minimal, however, Axel could feel the improvement slowly from Weapon X to XI...

The relationship with his past friends didn't improve. It actually worsened. Axel would feel that he was alone in this childcare, though the kids numbered around 200. The only saving grace was Miss. Alison and Agnes.

Agnes was 3 yrs old now. From a round face, oval brown eyes, she had changed to well,…. Still round face and oval brown eyes. She was now a bit taller than 3 years before. Agnes could now walk with her baby steps and talk broken sentences. She could now understand the language and reply. She was the light of Axel's world now.

Axel had taken care of her since she was a baby. She crawled for the first time after 8 months. It was the happiest day in Axel's life since he could remember. He would feel proud of her every step, from crawling, walking to finally saying her first word. Axel had decided that they would live happily ever after. Axel was a brother/father figure to Agnes. She would always cling to Axel where ever they go and Axel was very protective of her.

Alison would always have a smile on her face when she sees the duo. She was relieved that there was finally something that would make Axel smile in this childcare.

However, over the years, Axel had decided to venture to the outside world. He had thought to bring Agnes with him. He had trained under Lucifer and heard stories of the outside world. As per Lucifer, the outside world was a dog-eat-dog world where every man was for himself. Through his training, Axel was now confident that he would survive and even thrive in the outside world.

He was planning to move out when he finally reach the intermediate realm in his sword mastery.

[Name: Axel Blaze

Gender: Male

Age: 6 yrs

Strength (Str): 0.15=>0.7 Stamina (Sta): 0.19=>0.6

Agility (Agi): 0.1=>0.5 Defense (Def): 0.1=>0.5

Magic (Mag): 1.01=>1.4 Heath (Hlt): 40/40=>110/110

Quest1: Reach Intermediate Realm

Quest2: Find the way of sword]

Quest2: Find the way of the sword was the final quest for him to reach the intermediate realm. However, he could not solve it. He had asked for Lucifer guidance, but Lucifer's reply was disappointing.

As per Lucifer, Axel had to find 'the way of the sword' by himself. 'The way of the sword' was different for every person. It is like a DNA of a person, unique but compatible.

'The way of the sword' could be :

1. As simple as to wield the sword in their own way or,

2. To attack and kill every know creatures or,

3. To protect your loved ones or,

4. To create a diverse style of sword fighting or,

5. To even reach the highest realm of sword

It depends on the person. But whatever it may be, the person has to believe in it, think about it and apply it for the rest of their lives. If a person deviates from his 'the way of the sword', then the person would never be able to wield a sword again like he used to.

That was a harsh condition. So a swordsman may take a week, or a month or every decade to complete this quest.

—————————

It was 8 a.m in the morning. Everything seemed normal. The children were having breakfast. Some of them were playing in the field. The caretakers were doing their respective duties. The owner of the caretaker was sipping her tea comfortably sitting in her chair.

There in the main doorway, stood a tall, thin man with waist-length silver hair and beard. Half-moon spectacles were perched on his crooked nose, and he was wearing a long black traveling cloak and a pointed hat.

His attire seemed to scream that he was not a native of the place. He went to the reception desk and knocked on the table to wake up the sleeping woman.

"Ummm,.. Whaaaat are you? Why are you inside without any permission?" yelled the woman pointing her fingers towards the man.

She was surprised by his attire. It was not every day that she would have the chance to meet a old man with a silver hair and beard, and a pointed hat.

"Good morning. I apologize to have startled you. As for your answers, you could see that I am an old man. Though the Courtesy dictates that we offer fellow humans the opportunity of denying us entry, I have an appointment."

The woman calmed her nerves, stood with her best receptionist position and then said "Ok then, who do you have an appointment with?" searching down the papers.

"I have an appointment with Miss. Alison who I believe is a caretaker here"

"What is your name?"

"Dumbledore"

"Full name?"

"Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore"
