“The basics of all magecraft is Visualization. The clearer your understanding of the magical phenomenon, the higher efficiency, power, and success rate of the magical distortion of reality. That's the reason why all self-respecting mages meditate why contemplating about the universe and their magic. When a mage reaches a state of Enlightenment, where all phenomenons related to his element are explainable for him, he becomes a revered Sage. But that's only the beginning of his journey in search of The Truth...” - Rufus's , Sage's of Earth, quick guide to magehood.

Laitz POV:

After waking up a peculiar scene entered my vision ;

-nope I didn't see an unfamiliar ceiling, neither did I wake up in an uncomfortable bed.

A scene even weirder than that entered my eyes. In front of my eyes I saw the other bed, which for the last fifteen departures wasn't used, occupied by a young lady. I wonder if my surprise was painted on my face while rubbing my eyes , I suddenly heard a voice from the bed:

-”Sorry for using it without permission, it was the only bed in this place where I could lay her. ”

-”There's no problem, I simply couldn't believe that bed was used after the old man died, it's already fifteen years, huh.”

I replied without any hesitation and finally located my converser. He was sitting close to the violet-eyed girl. It was the repenter from the day before, if I'm not mistaken his name was...

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

-”Ah, I forgot to introduce myself yesterday. My name's Angerott, The Crimson Blade, it's a pleasure to make an acquaintance.”

He stood up and said while giving a majestic bow. Wow he's so elegant. No wonder he has a Title, he's probably a primodal, he said it was …

The Crimson Blade!?!?!?!?!?

No way.

No way this person.

NO FREAKING WAY THIS PERSON IS THE CRIMSON BLADE!

As if! If a walking example of a homicidal maniac is this guy than everybody would be a psycho.

He's got to be pulling my leg....

But wait the more important question is who is she? The small miss, laying there?

-”That would be my only daughter Melanie, if I'm not mistaken she wanted to show me this church before those guys kidnapped her. Well better not think of them all I'll decide to massacre the whole Capitol, calm down me, *Hah – huh* , okay so what do you remember from yesterday ? ”

What I remember from yesterday...

What happened yesterday ?

Ah it was that time when he came in and … and a Servant spoke to me.

So they are true, huh, quite the shock. Well later He spoke with Angerott. And I lost conciousness, but He said something about Angerott telling his story to me?

-”Wow so you did listen you weren't only immersed in his presence. That's quite the resilience. You want to know why he wanted me to tell you our history?”

Yeah, I would ,but can he really divulge the reason so easily?

-”Well he just wants me to make you accept The Truth. Sorry that's all I can tell you now.”

Wait, that just makes me more curious what Truth ? What does he mean and wait is he...?

-”Yeah, I can read your mind. It's a cool ability, isn't it”

He said giving me a grin...

Hmm I wonder what he will say first?

-”Isn't it obvious all good stories have to start from the beginning.”

Than he started the tale...

…

Wait.

Did he say her name was Melanie?
