Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 2

Elyndor

 

This is a mythical world which exists in an Universe different from the one we live in .

 

The races here possess supernatural powers known as [Talents] and can use them with the help of primodial cosmic energy which runs through their veins and can be absorbed from the surroundings as well .

 

These world is divided into 7 Continents . These continents consists of 7 different races :

 

Humans

Elves

Dark Elves

Dwarves

Celestials

Mythical Creatures

Demons

 

The biggest continent and the central region of the world is under the control of Demons . They appeared on this world approximately 3000 years ago and captured the Central Continent . The First Demon God 'Aralith' was the strongest of that time . No one in the entire world had managed to beat him . It was said that his 'Talent' was too powerful and others didn't stand a chance against him . He conquered the continent and renamed it 'Veytharion' .

 

Athalos [Human Continent]

 

The third largest continent after the demon and the celestial continents . The continent is divided into two major empires :

 

Solarion Empire

Eclipsion Empire

 

Athalos is divided into three regions and overseen over by three superpowers of Human Race . The Solarion Empire covers 50% of the land area , the Eclipsion Empire covers 30% of the land area and the remaining 20% is under the control of the Astralis Academy . The empire of Solarion has 5 major ducal families . These are the :

 

House Voidhaven

House Rainhafer

House Stormcrest

House Ignisborne

House Rivenshore

 

Among these five ducal families , the power and authority of House Voidhaven is unmatched in the entire empire . They have the qualifications to be treated the same as the emperor himself . The current patriarch of this family is 'Argent Von Voidhaven' . He is a peak Rank 10 powerhouse and the current strongest person in the Athalos .

 

My name is Aries Von Voidhaven . I am the first young master and the eldest son of the Voidhaven family . I am currently 18 years old and has yet to awaken my [Talent] . Well , it's actually not that far away . In fact , the Coming of Age ceremony is just in three days where all the young descendants of the family awaken their [Talent] .

 

My elder sister and the first young miss of the family is Rena Von Voidhaven . She is currently a Rank 6 expert and is the strongest among her generation not only in the Voidhaven family but among all the ducal families . She can be described in a word as 'genius' . Reaching Rank 6 within just 6 years after awakening is a record which can make it's place in the history of the world .

…..

 

The Main Family Residence of the Voidhaven Family

 

This is a highly secured and high-tech place . This place is under the supervision of a Rank 8 expert and guarded by several Rank 7 experts .

 

Behind them is a 200 meter tall building which is protected by a high grade barrier . This is the residence of the main family .

 

In other words , the people living here are all the main family descendants who has more power than branch family members .

Training Room , Floor 27 

 

A young boy of 18 years old is swinging his sword inside the training room . His body was covered in beads of sweat which was shinning under the roof lights of the training room . His body was like a work of art as his abs were defined and tough . Each and every muscle was showing on throughout his body . His face is sharp and he was too handsome . He had raven hair which swayed whenever he moved his body as well as sharp purple eyes which is filled with energy .

 

This person was none other than Aries Von Voidhaven . The young master of Voidhaven family .

 

He was training his swordsmanship to a higher proficiency . His sword proficiency was at the level of Sword User and that was also achieved by him with just 4 years of training . According to the family rules , a descendant whether from the main family or the branch family is not allowed to train until they are 12 years old . There are more rules like this one in their family .

 

One of the main reasons why Voidhaven family rised to be the strongest family is because they don't treat younger generations with pressure . They nurture them slowly and steadily and train them according to their physique and age .

 

If a member of the Voidhaven family has weak physique then they are allowed to become a mage and leave the path of swordsmanship and vice versa .

 

But , Aries was different . He started training his body when he was just 10 years old and did that for continuous 4 years before making his body strong enough to maintain swordsmanship . This is the reason why his physique is stronger than other people of his age .

 

-Knock--Knock-

 

Aries heard a light knock on the door of the training room . He glanced towards the door and it opened revealing a beautiful lady with silver hair and purple eyes . This person was Aries's elder sister Rena Von Voidhaven .

 

"Still practicing ?" asked Rena in a voice suiting for a young lady in her twenties .

 

"The awakening ceremony is coming up . I don't want to risk anything" Aries said with an indifferent look .

 

"You know , people your age aren't half as strong as you"

 

"I know"

 

Rena looked towards Aries with a curious expression before smiling as she said :

 

"Hey , are you a reincarnator or something ?"

 

Aries suddenly froze when he heard this . He slowly turned towards Rena and asked :

 

"And why do you think that ?"

 

"Well , it sometimes feel that you think too maturely for someone your age"

 

"Yeah , I know but just as I said I don't like taking chances"

 

He kept his sword on the sword holder and took a towel and wrapped around his neck . He walked toward the exit as he crossed Rena and walked out of the training room . He walked few steps and said without turning his head :

 

"Don't slack off just because of me , alright ?"

 

"What does that mean ?" asked Rena .

 

"Look at your left sleeve" he said for one last time and continued walking .

 

Rena looked towards her sleeve and she noticed some blood stains on it . She just came back from the wilderness but didn't notice these stains . She looked towards the departing figure of Aries and slowly turned towards the floor-to-ceiling windows which displayed the outer view and whispered to herself :

 

"It seems he is right"

 

….

 

Aries came back to his room and closed the door behind him . His room was rather simple for a boy his age . The things in his room were only things he needed the most and is essential for him . On one side , there is a table and chair equipped with high-tech features . Over the table was a display screen atleast 55 inches wide . His bed was large and it occupied more than 1/4 th of the room and a closet on one side .

 

He went to the washroom to take a quick shower and came out wearing fresh clothes . He threw the towel on his couch on another corner of the room and threw himself on his bed . His thoughts started to gather themselves inside his head .

 

The fact that Aries hides from everyone was the information that he was indeed a reincarnator . In his past life , he lived on Earth as Kazuto Shiroka . He had lost his family at a young age and had always hoped to get another family or create one but he was unsuccessful in both his goals . He was diagnosed with cancer and died miserably on an hospital bed alone and full of regret .

When he opened his eyes once again , he found himself in the arms of a lady surrounded by several maids . It was after his memories started to resurface that he realised that he had been reincarnated in another world as the young master of one of the most powerful families .

 

He took a vow to himself when he was 5 years old that he will train and become strong enough to protect people who he considered close . He didn't want to lose his family once again after gaining a new one . His personality wasn't arrogant like people of the same age as him but he maintains a cold and indifferent attitude in front of others .

 

"System , you there ?"

 

[Yes , Master]

This was his system panel . It was a glowing blue holographic screen in front of his eyes . This system was the first thing he gained after reincarnating . His most panels are blank because he has yet to awaken his [Talent] .

He looked at the stats on his panel . According to this world's standards , a person who has yet not awakened showed have stats around 15 but Aries's stats were more than 10 points greater . This was the result of his training and the help of his system . 

 

'I am looking forward to the Awakening Ceremony'

 

Aries thought for one last time as he drifted off to sleep .
