After some pleasantries, Karna and Makrov finally got to Business. they both sat on the mat cross-legged across each other. Makrov said, "Young Lord. as you know, Mages are divided into 10 Ranks and after that, Demi-God and The Godhood just like warriors. There might be only 10 ranks but there is an immense difference in strength between every rank which can only be crossed under special circumstances. There are three sub ranks In every rank, which are lower, mid, and high. to understand this better you can think that every rank has 100 levels. 1-30 is lower, 31-65 is mid, and 66-100 is high.""I am a 5th Mid ranked Mage, this means that I need to cross 34 levels to reach 5th high rank. Now this may look easy but I will need perhaps a decade to achieve this, and that too when I have enough resources and funding even though I'm a genius.""The strength between people of the same rank depends on their various skills and spells. and this is why usually the nobles and those who have infl
Karna went in front of Makrov the next day, He had a resolute expression on his face. Makrov looked at him for a while then asked, "Have you decided?", "Yes, please teach me magic spells. I want to become a mage as well."A complicated expression flashed on Makrov's face. He asked, "Are you sure? Only a few ones-in-a-million genii can accomplish this. I can give you more time to think, It's not easy to use 'Aura' And 'Mana' at the same time.""No, teacher. I'm sure about this. I know that you must think that I'm being overconfident and arrogant, But I still want to learn magic."Makrov looked at Karna deeply, He sighed, "Alright, if that's your wish then I won't stop you. But I will be very disappointed if you give up because of failure." Makrov said sternly."I understand Teacher, I will never fail!""Fine!" Makrov said and brought up a book, a manual, and a spherical transparent orb. "First of all, this is a low-grade Mana Affinity Manual for you, although it's a low grade but
After laughing for a bit, both calmed down.Makrov said while pointing at the transparent orb, "Now it's time to check your attributes. Do you see this orb? you just have to keep your hand on it for a moment and then colored particles will appear inside it by which you can recognize your attributes." Makrov said.Karna nodded and placed his right hand on the orb. Suddenly he felt a sharp pain and something being sucked out of his body. he frowned, "Relax, The orb is absorbing your Mana. once it's done, it will analyze its strictures and figure out the attributes of your Mana, once that's done then it will create colored particles by which we can identify the attributes. This Orb is an invention of a Demi-God magician." Makrov said reassuring Karna.Karna regained his focus, and some of his Mana was absorbed for two minutes before it stopped. Karna removed his palm from the Orb and looked at it with anticipation.A few moments passed and the particles gradually began appearing, "Oh?
On a clear day when the wind was flowing mildly, the sky was blue, two prestigious carriages were traveling northeast of the territory of the Zarx Family. Three warriors and a mage each we're riding with the two carriages on both sides. Five warriors rode in front and the back creating a protective formation.The warriors and the mages rode on war horses which were fast, somewhat intelligent, and strong. They had great stamina and could run for 3 days without any nourishment. The Warriors were 3rd Mid-Ranked. They wore the typical Ascar empire's armor, they had swords hung on their waists and shields on their backs. This created an oppressive atmosphere around the caravan. But the thing that announced the identity of this caravan was the insignia of the Zarx Family, A red lotus on a sword.As for the mages, they wore their magician robes which were also their pride. They were all at least 3rd Ranked mages. One of them was 'Oliver' who seemed to be the leader of the mages present. He
The caravan was traveling without any problems, they passed by hills, plains, and small towns. If this was an ordinary caravan, then they would have suffered some hardship because of bandits. But only an idiot would think of robbing such a prominent noble family. and not to mention the elite warriors and mages who were protecting the caravan.The journey was long but compared to some of the other places it was hardly much. It was going to take one month to reach Blue Isle City, 15 days had passed since the caravan left the Zarx territory. The caravan was traveling toward Bronzwood County. Although 15 days wasn't a huge amount of time but everyone was somewhat bored traveling all day. Ron was a Noble through and through. during the war, he would not even care about eating dirt to survive but he wasn't fine with staying in those 'Lowly' Inns while just simply traveling. He was a noble and he had accepted this in his heart. His thinking was that although nobles should not forget their d
On the other side, Five vicious wolves approached the five warriors, they pounced on the warriors with speed similar to an arrow while cutting the air. The warriors raised their swords which glowed with their Aura. The wolves closed the distance In a blink of an eye slashing their claws at the warriors with great force. The warriors parried the strikes with their swords and dodged backward. Although the warriors could use their sword arts to finish off the wolves quicker but they were taught to be efficient while dealing with the enemy and save as much energy as possible to deal with any unseen circumstance.The wolves could not break the extremely durable swords and were pushed backward by the warrior's Aura which invaded the wolf's body through the sword. before they could stabilize, the ground beneath their feet became a quagmire as a mage behind the warriors smirked cruelly. The wolf's feet began sinking in. Not wasting this opportunity, five of the warriors slashed their sword
The sky was beginning to illuminate in a shade of reddish-orange with the rising sun. The birds were awake and lively. As is urging all living beings to wake up with the light of dawn, they sang melodiously in their sweet voice. A cold breeze blew between some intervals creating a fresh atmosphere. On a road between trees that were so brown that they could be mistaken for bronze, two carriages were heading toward the city of Broncos. The carriages were luxurious and had an insignia of a red lotus on a sword which identified them as the Zarx Family of The Ascar Empire. The carriages were surrounded by experts who were in a state of vigilance. In one of the carriages, there was a red-haired boy who was currently sleeping soundly. The carriage was so specious that one could easily sleep comfortably in it. The boy was Rudra Von Zarx who had fallen unconscious because of forcefully casting a spell for which he was not ready. It had been one day since the incident happened. After Karna f
The sun shone brightly over the head. Sounds of people's noises could be heard all around the town. The shopkeepers were haggling with the customers about the prizes, two young boys were having a duel full of heroic spirit while the pedestrians cheered with passion. A little kid was begging his mother to buy him candy as his gaze was constantly going towards the multiple colored candies on the side of the road at a small stall. His mother couldn't help it as she bought an orange colored candy for the boy, the boy became ecstatic as he hopped around in happiness not noticing the concern in his mother's eyes. The mother sneakily counted the minuscule amount of bronze coins in her pouch and sighed with hopelessness. But then a motherly smile appeared on her face as she saw her son brimming with joy and happiness. She clenched her fists as calluses could be seen on her hands. Some unknown resolve flashed in her eyes.On the other hand, An Lady with a noble temperament, beautiful looks, an
