Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Training of the Phoenix Heir

The golden light of dawn bathed the Valvas estate, filtering through tall windows into the training courtyard.A small figure with silver-white hair and diamond-blue eyes stood in the center, his expression serious yet endearingly cute.

Roy Valvas — age four.The reincarnated heir of two worlds.

For the past months, Roy had spent his days quietly reading through the magical archives left by his mother, Jessica Valvas, formerly Jessica Frostborne — the last heiress of an ancient English wizarding line. Her personal collection contained grimoires on elemental control, alchemy, ancient sigils, and Frostborne family magic.

One day, after finishing a dense tome on elemental fusion, Roy decided it was time.

He padded into the grand sitting room, where his family sat enjoying tea. Darius Valvas, the retired general and Grand Duke, was reading the day's reports. Clara was arranging flowers. Jessica and Alex were speaking softly.

Roy took a deep breath, then approached them with his most powerful weapon — his puppy eyes.

"Mama, Grandpa, Grandma, Papa…" he said sweetly, clutching a small wooden sword."Can I learn swordsmanship and magic too?"

The four adults froze.

Jessica nearly dropped her teacup. "Roy, you're too young—"

But when she saw his huge blue eyes, shimmering like gemstones, her resolve began to melt.Clara covered her mouth to hide her smile. "He's so adorable, Darius…"Even the mighty general's stern face twitched.

"Tch… Fine. But only light training. No dangerous magic."

Roy smiled innocently.

"Thank you, Grandpa! Thank you, everyone!"

Inside his head, he thought with quiet triumph:

"Plan Success."

The Years of Training

From that day on, Roy's life changed.

Each morning, he trained with Darius Valvas in the art of swordsmanship.The old general was merciless, but every strike taught Roy focus and rhythm. His body, strengthened by the Dark Phoenix bloodline, adapted quickly, faster than any human child should have been capable of.

By afternoon, Roy studied under his mother and Grayfia Lucifuge — the silver-haired maid whose icy elegance mirrored his mother's. Together, they instructed him in the mastery of magic and elemental control.

Jessica taught him Ice Magic, her family's legacy — magic that could freeze even fire itself.Grayfia refined his technique, teaching him precision, restraint, and discipline.

Fire and ice flowed through his veins. The phoenix within him began to stir.

At night, Roy sat alone, meditating with his Zanpakutō — Ryūjin Jakka. The blade slept at first, whispering faint echoes of flame and eternity.It took him three years of relentless practice to awaken it.When it finally ignited, the training ground lit up with crimson fire that didn't burn but roared with divine might.

"Burn the world to ashes," Roy whispered."Ryūjin Jakka."

The Awakening

By the time he turned seven, Roy had completely mastered the Dark Phoenix bloodline and his Ope-Ope no Mi. He could heal with flame, teleport through light, and reshape space itself.Even Darius admitted grudgingly that his grandson's swordsmanship surpassed that of most soldiers.

Jessica watched her son's growth with quiet pride — and a flicker of fear.She could feel the overwhelming power coiled inside his small frame. It wasn't human anymore. It was divine.

Roy smiled faintly as the message faded.

"So the system rewards patience too… good. But I won't use them yet. Not until the next stage begins."

He gazed out the window at the evening sky, where golden clouds burned with the same color as his flames. His reflection shimmered faintly on the glass — half boy, half phoenix.

"Mother, Grandfather, Father… someday, I'll make our name echo through both worlds."

And in the depths of his mind, the System pulsed softly, as if answering him.
