17 The Burnt boy (2/2)
”yes I did, funny isn't it. Me stealing a Burnt”
”ha, you don't even know the beginning... I have that name, but I refuse to assume the weight behind it!”
”Is that so? Do you know what my surname is?”
The boy shrugged his shoulders, after which Sant approached his ear and said something. Warrior knew, but Silver who saw the boy's expression change drastically began to wonder what Zachery's last name was.
”Because of that I was thrown out of the house like a mouse that was discovered in a kitchen, my mother worked hard and put me into college, but you... not only have wealth, you have the world in the palm of your hand, so...”
”WHAT DO YOU KNOW?! THAT BASTARD KILLED MY MOTHER. I'M BEING HELD CAPTIVE LIKE A RARE ANIMAL, MY DAD SENDS A DIFFERENT WOMAN EVERY WEEK JUST SO THAT HIS RARE ANIMAL CAN REPRODUCE AND RAISE MORE OFFSPRING!!!!”
”and you think I don't know what it's like ?, what do you think happened when they discovered a bastard living in a room hidden in the back, you think I wasn't the rare animal that would be exploited ?”
”BUT AT LEAST YOU STILL HAVE YOUR MOTHER!!!!!!!”
”hahahahaha, the adult world is cruel, a week after I went to college my mother was found in her room with a rope around her neck.”
When Sant finished speaking, the Burnt boy had a somewhat disturbed expression, Silver had one hand covering his mouth, tears appearing in the corner of his eyes.
”She did what she could to give me a future, and after she got it, she tried to end hers.”
The boy was quiet and his head was lowered, he could no longer look into Sant's eyes with the confidence of before, Sant thought a little and soon remembered several interviews of the arcane king of his past life and his greatest dream too.
”I can make you a warlock...”
The boy immediately looked into Sant's eyes again, anxiety and nervousness crossed the boy at that moment.
Sant was taking everything very calmly, he took a potion and poured it over the boy's head, then he untied it and walked away to Warrior's side and near his ear spoke.
”If something strange happens when I make him my apprentice and the holy son of Arcania, kill him without hesitation”.
...
”Hey boy add me as a friend, my Id is Sant”
[you wish to become Merlin's friend]
[Y/N]
”Yes”
...
”first come here”
Sant called him to the pedestal that was previously protected by the hut and placed his hand on the shiny and circular purple stone. The pedestal restored its silver color and had two dragons drawn on it and on one of them was a man holding a grimoire.
[Do you want to turn the player Merlin into an arcane?]
[Y/N]
”Yes”
Immediately the young Merlin felt a change in his body, his sword became dozens of times heavier when he checked his status screen noticed the drastic change in his points.
”you are now an Arcanum and if you want to become a magician you must sign a contract with me with Aia as a witness.”
”I accept.”
”In my name, Sant, the arcane king, I beseech Aia to witness our contract and apply punishment to those who break it.”
Immediately a milky white circle surrounded the two of them and a figure appeared out of nowhere. Was small and had a pair of white wings and held a long golden scroll in his arms.
His physical appearance is that of an angel in the infancy phase using a kind of white curtain on his body.
”I am an envoy of Aia, and I will judge by her. If you both sign on this scroll and make a verbal confirmation the deal is done.”
Sant was not very impressed with this low-level divine servant, but the others were delighted with his angelic appearance.
”I swear to make Merlin an mage if he swears allegiance to me as his king.”
He opened the scroll and put it in front of Sant and Merlin. Sant was the first to write his signature and a little hesitant then came Merlin and as soon as the two wrote and confirmed a thin line formed between the two and soon after it all disappeared.
”now let's go to the easy part Merlin.”
