Chapter 2 - No Powers!

On a bright morning, a woman was sitting on a bed with a baby in her arms. There was also a man standing by the side of the bed. She looked tired and had dark circles under her eyes with a weak smile on her face. She was very beautiful and had flowing dark colored hair with deep blue eyes, the man was also quite handsome with short jet black hair and brown eyes but for some reason, their baby had white hair and gold colored eyes but his most distinctive feature was the large white dragon tattoo on his upper arm. This baby was none other than Azagorn although his new "parents" were unaware of this.

"Who are these people", he thought and attempted to break free of the woman's embrace, but no matter what he did, he could not get out. So he attempted to fly away, when nothing happened, he realized he could not feel his wings, he looked at himself to the best of his abilities. He realized he was a human baby.

"That bitch, she reincarnated me as a pathetic little human baby with none of my powers, how am I supposed to get my revenge like this", he said out loud, although it sounded more like the random babblings of a baby.

As he was thinking about this, he felt something sweet enter his mouth. "What is this substance", he thought and in a few minutes, he slowly started to feel drowsy. He tried to fight it but he eventually fell asleep.

He woke up hours later and found himself in a house which he assumed was owned by his new parents after a little observation.

His parents decided to name him Aiden. He hated the name Aiden because he considered it to be beneath his former status as a god. and would always cry in protest whenever he was called Aiden but slowly he grew accustomed to it, mostly because nobody bothered to do anything whenever he cried after being called that anymore.

After spending a few months in his human body, he had learned more about the humans than he would have liked to. He was forced to do this because he could not keep calling his parents "male human and female human", because he realized that they weren't very practical titles because any other person in the city would fit in those descriptions.

He found out his father's name was Steven Hawke and his mother's name was Maya Hawke and they were mages. He also figured out that they held some sort of important positions in their society and due to their status as because people always flocked around their house bearing gifts and making requests.

Although he would never admit it, he was amazed by how human beings were able to perform such minute movements like eating or walking with precision and accuracy, but he eventually learnt to do the same.

He grew rather quickly and never quite behaved like a child to the surprise of his parents. He was unusually intelligent for a child and everyone assumed he'd grow up to be some kind of genius mage. However, by the time he was about ten years old, a rumour has spread through the city that he had no magic potential because he had yet to manifest any sort of magical abilities. They claimed he had been cursed at birth by some kind of demon, which was why he had white hair and such golden inhuman eyes.

The people living in the city began to get scared of him because of the rumor. They labelled Aiden a freak and would hurl curses at him whenever they saw him around. However, Aiden was not bothered about this at all.

Instead he decided to ask his parents to take him to the capital of Valenor Empire, Elyndor, where their city known as Savania was located. At the capital, children were tested for magic potential and magic affinity and if they did, they were usually advised to go to a magic academy when they turned 16.

At the capital, his parents took him to an old building to take the magic potential test. Inside the building, an elderly man told him to place his hands on a crystal ball. If it lit up, then he had magic potential. The longer it took to light up, the less magic potential possessed by the child. He placed his hands on the crystal ball confidently expecting it to light up immediately.

He waited and waited for it to light up but it never did, after a while the old man said, "Sorry kid, you have no magic potential".

Thanks for reading, I am going to skip most of his childhood because I am not good at writing baby stories.
