part 1:
it's been 7 years since I've been married and had saran, saran was an adorable kid, but I'm constantly being worried for some reason, he is not like his sister who is energetic and naughty, he always shuts himself in his room or library,
*sigh*
"what's the matter? you look worried"
ugh. what can I say.
"it's about Kai"
" Kai!? what's wrong with him?"
"Nothing is wrong with him it's just that I am worried weather he will be socially stable or not, you see he rarely goes outside, what if he won't have any friends? It keeps bothering me"
"Why are you getting emotional over such thing, you see kids of his age will be curious about almost everything once he gets curious, he will bring himself to make some friend's, stop worrying over nothing"
Worrying over nothing you say, I hope you are not wrong.
(kai's perspective)
After discovering that I can use magic in this world also I felt relieved, after that I practiced more and reached third circle, I wonder if it was due to the race that I reached third circle easily. I should ask dad about that.
(that evening)
"Um..."
"Oh! Kai? Why are you here? Did something happen?"
"It's particularly nothing, but who are high humans, are humans and high humans different"
"....."
"Dad?"
"You see, kai it's true that humans and high humans are different, but the only difference is our time until we die"
"Time until we die?"
"Yes, it's called life span, normal humans live until 80~100 years, but high humans are different they live more than 200 years, that too changes come to the type of high human, normal high human lives up to 600 years, coming to me I'm special so I live up to 10,000 years"
"..., what about us"
"you'll know when time comes okay?"
"...…."
"Thanks dad"
"it's fine. Well, what are your goanna do now"
"I'm goanna read a book I just found"
"You just found?"
"Yes, it's Abou- "
Oops! I can't tell him.
"Ah! It's about history"
"Well, kai reading book's is great but you need to know more about outside world too, I am goona teach you about sword's soon"
"...., bye dad"
"Bye son"
*sigh*
rishit's perspective-
-I absolutely can't tell you so soon my son.
I open the door to our room, and lay flat on the bed alongside seir.
"what's with you now? You don't look well "
"it's about a question asked by kai, he asked Abou our race"
"Our race? Did you tell him about us and his secret"
"Nope I avoided it, barely"
"This kid, hah he defiantly is curious"
"don't worry about it Rishit, sleep well we will tell him when time is right"
That he and his sister cannot die.
(kai's perspective)
What does he mean he will tell when time is right, well my lifespan doesn't matter. All that matters whether I hit 9th circle or not.
part 2:
(3 year later)
Now I'm 7 years old, and dad is teaching me sword's Manship. It's not that I can't deny that but I'm rather curious. so, I'm learning the sword for self-defense.
And there is one thing I'm jealous. My mother is only teaching about magic to my sister lyra.
It's not that I don't know about magic, I'm sad because I'm being left out.
Well, I can't complain about it. It's my fault that I'm supressing my mana.
I'm also training magic in secret. So, no problem
"Hey no slacking off during training"
"yes"
In this world magic capacity is theorized to be constant, but it's totally wrong.
Since magic circle's exist mana capacity can! Be increased.
"Dad! Does you use something called aura in swordsmanship"
"Aura? never heard of it, why did you ask"
"I read in the book that knight's use aura while fighting"
"Hmm…, never used it, but we sword king's use mana to form core's and let it's energy pass though the sword and foot"
Well, that's news to me.in anyway I'm goanna learn sword in my own way.
"Dad?"
"Yes?"
"Can't we use the mana in the form of circle's rather than core"
"….."
"Never mind"
After that day my training in swords became a routine. I train in swords in morning and train in magic secretly during night.
But one day.
"let's go, I became a 4th circle"
It took me two years, finally I crossed first big wall.
{creak}
"Who is there, show yourself?"
"Fine, if you're planning on not coming out, I will be showing you no mercy, fire arrow"
"Ah!"
"lyra"
Not good, I must silence her, yes let's do that
"Brother, how are you using magic mother didn't teach you?"
"Lyra, you must keep this a secret"
"Secret?"
"If you do, I will help you become stronger as a mage"
"Really, promise?"
"Yeah promise!"
"You should keep your word"
After that I taught her circle theory of magic and suppression of mana.
She became a 2nd circle in two weeks.
"Well, we will finish today"
"Finally. Ah! mother is going to assign a magician mentor to me "
"Oh! Good for you"
"But I can't learn from you for a while"
"that's fine it will be good for you, and I can also avoid suspicion, hey but don't forget to do the circle meditation"
"..... bye, good night brother"
"Yeah, bye"
What was that, well it doesn't matter to me. Should I try some spells, nope I will do that later.
I wonder whether that person will be stronger.
(meanwhile at the entrance of the village)
"So, this is the brunia village"
'Kai'-I am excited to see that person
