Soul’s Binding
“Warriors are simply meat shi+elds”
“Only idiots without the talents of ic would become Warriors, such low lives!”
“Warriors can only swing their swords stupidly They are practically unevolved Barbarians Magic, on the other hand, is the true art”
NO! That’s not how it is! Lucifer desperately swung his sword, trying to prove Warrior wasn’t just a lowly profession, or a profession only people without Magic talents would enter Warriors can and should be a more important profession
This was an era for Magic; it was so coh not everyone knew the kind of large-scale Magic that would bring destruction to the world, but almost everyone could cast the simplest of spells Waterball and Fireball spells had became the basic necessity of life
Those who did not know Magic were treated no differently than a disabled person
Swords could never block the terrifying power of Magic A simple fireball coulda thin blade could block All in all, swords were practically paper in front of Magic Unless the sielder aician like an assassin, otherwise they could never haricians
However, Lucifer often fantasized, how great would it be if there were a power everyone could achieve through training? Never would there be tragedies of people trying but not being able to cast a spell Anyone, as long as they illing to put in the efforts, could see the fruits of their labor
Once again, Lucifer was beaten to the ground by a child with a siround, unable to cast even the simplest of protective shi+elds, and he had to desperately use his hands to cover his vital areas
“I have to, I must find my oer!”
Lucifer thought of every way possible to increase strength: swinging his sword until he passed out, carrying heavy things to cli with his swords, slowly but surely, his body beca children could no longer bully him But he wasn’t satisfied with it; he knew if he spent the aic, he would probably have been at least an interht not be able to win against a novice Magician at this point
The reason was, even the strongest body couldn’t resist a hit froic spells raining out of the sky, then catch an opportunity to defeat the Magician
Everyone told hi the Warriors, so there was no need to coicians
“Could this be the limit for Warriors? Is that all I can do? No! There , that could resist Magics Itto use outside force like Magic”
Perhaps a blessing from the Gods, or perhaps it was the result of Lucifer’s relentlessness, he did indeed finally find a power, that existed within his body, and it became more and more powerful with practice Lucifer decided to name the power “Aura”
At first, the Magicians looked down upon Lucifer’s Aura So what if this Aura thing could block low level her levels of Magic; they thought the child’s play thing called Aura couldn’t possibly block Magic
As such, people still paid little attention to Lucifer’s Aura, but he didn’t care; he was only happy about finding a way to gain power proportional to the efforts put in He didn’t keep this ht Aura to anyone anted to learn
However, one time, Lucifer found out, to his surprise, a person who learnt Aura froht of hiic when he was a child flashed across his ht that person a lesson, and he also realized, this kind of power can’t fall into the wrong hands
“If people who learn Magic are called Magicians, then there should be a name for people who study Aura However, this na more noble, and it should represent honor, discipline, and righteousness, it… no, I should say ill be called, Knights!”
More and hts, but he didn’t get greedy; he picked the people who had good character and illing to follow the Knight’s conducts, then taught the honor to the nahts
Though it was still the era of Magic, but Lucifer deeply believed, this would all one day change, and Knights would be active on this stage of life
Magicians became more and more scared; the possibility of Aura seemed endless, and the founder, Lucifer, had beca toe-to-toe with advanced Magicians This kind of poas strong enough to threaten Magic
“We can’t let this power continue to exist; if this power continue to expand, it will affect the survival of Magic We et rid of Aura, and kill everyone with Aura!”
Lucifer and the people who learnt Aura from him found themselves condemned by the entire world They were arrested, posted as wanted people, assassinated, fraainst theic
‘We follow good conduct, why?’
‘We use Aura to maintain justice, why?’
‘We didn’t do anything wrong, why?’
As each of his coht die, they would always hold Lucifer’s hand before their death: ‘Don’t give up; this world will eventually recognize Knights’ rightful existence’
Finally, only Lucifer remained, and he had been tossed into a corner in the world He had lost all hopes he had in the world He knew there was no where he could go; other than being extinguished, the only other choice he had was to fight back!
He traveled to the ends of the world and found a legendary species — Dragons
He ca of the Dragons; the Dragons would do everything in their powers to assist Lucifer in establishi+ng his own nation Likewise, the land acquired by the Knights would also be owned by Dragons Dragons and Knights beca journey for conquest
