(No ones POV)
A dirty hallway filled with cobwebs and cockroaches was disturbed by the sound of footsteps breaking the silence
by a guard pulling an old man who was wearing a hood with a smile on his face eyeing the area around the abandoned prison block
"Get moving old man" the guard said as he pulled the man along
the old man stayed silent as he was led to an old cell empty except for a few pieces of newspaper meant to be a bed
"You will stay here until your execution tomorrow"said the guard nonchalantly as he closed the door and locked the gate
he then looked at the old man one last time before leaving him , enveloping the cell and the cellblock with silence again
"You underestimated me Ornelius" the old man smiled as he muttered under his breath and took out an amulet with a single feather
and released it out the window the old man closed his eyes and slept
(Radeus POV)
The marketplace was bustling with tourists as a child with long black hair, and pale skin walked
along the streets holding his bag while reading a card he was holding with his other hand.
"Is this the last place?" Radeus questioned as he looked at the house with a perplexed look
he put the card in the bag and knocked on the door
"What do you want?" a fat man said as he opened his door with a piece of chicken on his hand
"I-i 've come here to deliver this package" Radeus said as he got the package from his bag and presented it to the man

the man inspected the package for a while before closing the door Radeus took this as a signal to leave and went ahead
to the weapon shop and got his pay
Radeus then ran to his home and went up to his room to continue a weapon he was inventing
"Just a few more things" Radeus said excitedly while taking out a wrench from his tool box
and inserting the finishing touches while holding the weapon to test it out
the weapon looks like a long stick with a medium sized mana crystal in the center with bandages for the handles
with gears and a trigger so that when he pulled the trigger the mana from the manacrystal would infuse with the bullet
giving it extra damages because the bullet explodes because of the unstable mana application to the bullet
Radeus held his invention which he named [Mana Gun] and aimed it at a tree and fired it when the bullet hit the tree
the tree exploded leaving a small hole where the bullet hit, Radeus smiled as he inserted the weapon to his weapon holster
on his back that he created specifically for this weapon, and went to bed tired from finishing his weapon.
Radeus woke up because of the screams coming from the outside getting his weapon he hurriedly looked outside to
see a groups of Monsters with a person standing on top of the largest monster a dragon Radeus's eyes widened as he trembled with fear
and went downstairs when an ogre smashed through the walls smashing the house Radeus frightened fell down and hurriedly pulled his gun
the moment the ogre rushed to him he aimed and closed his eyes then pulled the trigger when he opened his eyes he saw the ogre with a hole on its face
hurrying Radeus quickly rushed outside and went to the gates knowing that the monsters are sure to destroy the city
without a single guard because they are all busy fighting the monsters and saving people Radeus saw the burning city
and decided to flee to avoid those monsters he quickly opened the gate and rushed outside before he was caught by the man
"....." the man paused as he looked at Radeus with a tilt of his head and froze him
he touched the frozen Radeus on the forehead and grinned
"Spirit change"
and left the unconscious boy on the ground as he continued laying waste to the city
when the man left a single leaf fell on the boys forehead and glowed.
