Chapter 1 Introduction White Room
In the white room, I remember when I was 5 years old. When I opened my eyes, I saw a white room, a square, with a single door and a white bed. I was sitting on the bed. My hair was short and golden. I heard the sound of the door opening. Squeak. Someone walked in. It was a woman dressed in white, wearing a white blindfold, and beautiful golden hair. She was holding a black notebook. She walked up to me and stopped in front of me. She said, "Number 6678, exactly 5 years old." The masked woman reached out to my forehead. A white magic circle appeared, and slowly changed color to gold. "Number 6678, Light Element, can start training." The woman with the blindfold stopped her hand and went back to writing in her notebook. After writing for a while, she stopped her hand and said, "Nice to meet you. My name is A. I am the assistant who takes care of this place. Do you have any questions?" I looked at A. A started writing and stopped. "Your name is Number 6678. What you have to do now is survive. Those who do not pass the criteria will die. Before starting to survive, you have 5 years to learn and practice. I will be the teacher. You can ask anything. First, start by speaking the language. I looked confused and began to receive strict instruction from A. Time passed after that. I started to speak 3 months later.
Then, I started to learn magic by memorizing everything for 1 year. Now, I am waking up and saw A at the door. I got up and sat down. "What else did you teach me today?" "Today, I will teach you how to use one magic circle." I smiled. "So how do we start?" A walked in front of me and held out her right hand for me to see. A white magic circle slowly appeared. "This is one magic circle. Imagine the magic circle you see here. Then open your hand. "I did as I was told, opened my hand and started to imagine. A small golden light appeared and then disappeared. I looked at A. "What does this mean? I acted suspiciously because I couldn't do the same thing as A. " "It seems that this A must only ask questions. Otherwise, he won't answer." A began to explain. "The magic power is not enough. You have to practice like this until you get it. „"Then how do you increase your magical power?" "You have to practice using magic all the time." "Then how do you see how much magical power you have?" "You have to practice using one magic circle, that's level one. If you can create two circles, it's level two. The magic circle that's created will have a symbol indicating what level of magician it is. The letters and shapes indicate what level the magician is, which depends on the amount of magical power and the magic circle they invented themselves. Those people are called magicians. If they can create level one formations, they're called level one magicians." "So are there level two magicians?" "Yes, there are. A level two magician is someone who breaks through level one by passing one of their own conditions. If they pass the conditions and create type two formations, they're called level two magicians." "What about level three?" "It's the same for a level three magician. If they break through level two to level three and create a third type of magic circle, they're already level three." "So that's it. It means that if you want to advance to a higher level, you have to do it yourself and no one can help you. Because everyone has their own conditions for advancing, right? ""Yes, the higher you want to go, the more time and effort it will take. To advance to each level, you require constant effort and practice. ""Forget it, it seems very interesting. Why do you need to do this, mage? If you have to try so hard, then maybe you can live comfortably." "About that, you haven't met the kids your age yet. If you don't want to be teased that you are weak, you should train. The kids here are many people who are much more talented than you. And the competition will be held in five years. If you don't want to be left behind by the other kids, then go ahead and train." I nodded. "Alright, I'll train with you. "I started training a year after that. I could train with the first type of magic circle. I could also use the Light Spear magic and the Golden Light Shield that could block attacks. Today, A started teaching basic magic. That is to free magic at your feet to increase speed. A teaches how to use magic to create a magic shield. The first magic is a basic magic, which is the light shield. Teaches how to use all types of weapons. With my small body, I can't hold weapons very well. So I have to use strength magic that can increase my strength. As time passed, 3 years passed. I can create the third type of magic circle. Now I am at the third level of a mage. I have been studying until now. I think I am the best in my class. No one will win for sure. 7 months later. I opened my eyes and sat up. I looked at A who was walking in from the door. "Hello, what else do you want to teach today?" A looked at me. "It's time to start the experiment, Number 6678." I shook my head and walked to A and stood in front of me with my very long golden hair. I used my hand that was enhanced with magic to cut it short. I changed my hairstyle. That question is easy. Short hair is cooler. And smiled. "Not Number 6678 From now on, call me Graden. "Graden smiled and walked out of the door. "It's time to show everyone that I am the real genius." In the white room, there was a golden egg placed in the center of the room. A woman with long golden hair that exceeded her feet was sitting on a chair. In another place, there was a human male locked in a white capsule. He seemed unconscious. The woman sitting there looked at her book written in a strange language. It read: The beginning will disappear and the end will be born. The golden gift fell. The unreachable self began to awaken. The one who competed for the empty position will appear. The empty road is long. "It's a strange prophecy, huh?" The woman closed the prophecy and looked at the room. There were projections of other children who were training. "I hope you succeed." The woman looked at her with an expressionless face like a woman who only felt empty.
