Sorry if it's a bit OOC.
CHAPTER 1: Fated Encounters
Luc's own POV
I have no memories of my childhood except the fact that one of the most powerful clairvoyants in the whole of Harmonia, Leknaat herself, raised and took care of me.
Certainly with a strict master as herself, I was bound to become the most influential mage there is; frankly speaking I already was---
Bestowed by the power of the true wind rune, I was beyond even those so- called "respected elders" who in other words are a bunch of slack offs. Perhaps I may actually even have a chance to exceed my very own master.
"Luc" she summoned me through telepathy, her voice soft and melancholic as ever. At first I didn't answer, thinking she would order me to do those irksome chores again when I'd rather be training, and learning more magic as well as obliging attacks...something useful and challenging foremost.
"Luc!" she called out once again, soft but this time firm, something inside had told me that if I didn't reply I'd be in an awfully big trouble.
"What do you want now?" I said coldly. I really never paid much respect to my mentors including Leknaat. After all why should I? We're all humans, equal and the same, aren't we not?
"Luc! I have a guest for you to meet, meet us in the foyer immediately!"
"Guest? Sorry but I have no time for entertaining. I have much better things to do than waste my time on your pathetic legions!" I replied, stubbornly
"Are you sure? Certainly you might find him rather interesting!" she replied
"Him? I have no interest in men so just leave me alone! Besides I told you I have better things to do!!"
"...Suit yourself...by the way, his name is Sasarai..."
As if I even care....
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*
I went to the library late that night, I was banned from learning further enhanced magic since my mentors say that I'm way beyond my limits, and it was too dangerous for me to exceed my restrictions.
If those fools won't teach me, I'll do some learning myself. How? Well, there are some ancient books and scrolls stocked within the restricted areas of the library; you know those with prohibited magic.
Leknaat never did allow me to go in there. "Its too dangerous for a novice such as yourself to handle these kinds of arts" she would say or rather "Be patient young neophyte, your time will soon come..." Hn, I'm not a kid anymore, and I can take care of myself with or without anyone's aid.
As I approached the isolated room, I was certain that it would have been empty, it was after all already past midnight but there, I saw a silhouette of a person? A Man? A Woman? Can't really determine. Well whoever or whatever it is it hasn't noticed me yet or has it?
A spy perhaps? A robber? Well whatever his/her motive was, I'll enjoy playing with my newfound dummy first. This was my first time to use magic, on live bait; but no one would most probably blame me for killing this culprit, instead they'll most likely praise me for saving their belongings.
I sneaked behind the stranger, quietly. S/he doesn't seem to notice....
As I was only few inches away, the outsider made a surprising retort, which I hadn't really expected. With a single wave of his hand, the ground suddenly shook, causing me to be a bit off balance. Magic? So this person isn't an outsider, same motives as myself perhaps. Well whatever the feedbacks were, I was thrilled to take this stranger on. He was stronger than any of my other opponents, stronger than me? That's what I want to find out.
"Sneaky little weasel, aren't we" the voice said, it was soft but fucking seductive, but I assumed that it belong to a males.
I grin, certainly I have never been this excited in a battle before, nor have I ever been mocked and called a weasel but I was obviously enjoying myself---too much that I didn't even resent his ridicules.
I rush to him with great agility and speed as I grasped his wrist, then pinning him to the wall, my free hand drawing a knife from my jade colored garb. I aimed the sharp object at his throat, a representation that I have won in battle.
But he only grinned, somewhat mocking "Really? Then why don't you look behind you boy?" he said as I automatically glanced back to see a beast standing before me, it attacked and all I can do was evade but not for long as I felt its sharp fangs bury deep into the flesh of my left arm as it started to bleed like hell, I took the dagger and buried it into the creatures head. The beast cringed as it took the knife by it hind claws and threw to the ground, my only weapon lost within the pile of rubble.
"Damn stupid creature!!" I cursed as I then realized my real opponent in the side corner, mumbling some sort of ritual. My eyes widened. I was now certain that the man was the one controlling the beast all along. Playing with me, like a puppet, well not for long--
Despite my injured arm, I jumped through the air, after parrying one of the creature's attacks
"True Wind Rune!!!" I shout out as a strong gust of wind blew, the man loosing his concentration, shielding himself from the momentary gale.
"The wielder of the true wind rune----he must be??" the stranger murmured, backing a little
"Who are you!?" I finally spoke up, pacing away as well.
"Sasarai" was the blunt reply as I stared intently at him. He was- attractive---what the fuck am I talking about?!!
"Shall we continue, boy?" he said, smiling
"Stop calling me boy! My name is Luc" I exclaimed, rather annoyed "Besides I'm no younger than you are!" I continued on as he only chuckled.
I once again rushed towards the brunette having the first move. He easily evaded my physical attacks as I did the same with his.
"Now we'll see who's a better sorcerer! He smirked, parrying one of my assaults
"Wha?!"
"True Earth Rune! Fenrir!!!" he exclaimed as a wolf like creature appeared out of now where
"Cheater!" I exclaim as the giant animal lunged for me. It was aiming for my already wounded arm. My weakness.
"Wielder of the true wind rune, your not as strong as Lady Leknaat had proposed you'd be!" he said, "You can't even summon---"
"Hn, at least I fight for myself, not make this things be the ones to attain victory for me!" I exclaim, "Besides, I don't need such summoning- whatever you call it to defeat the likes of you, Sasarai!" I continued as I see him grimace... beautiful
"We'll see about that, Fenrir!!" Sasarai ordered the wolf like creature to attack as I on the other hand leaped through the air "Shining Wind!!" I exclaimed as a strong tempest blew. The force of wind was so strong and so sharp that all that passed its way were minced to shreds. Books, papers and even the wooden tables of the room, were destroyed.
Sasarai seemed to have shielded himself by making a barrier. But due to his usage of such powerful sorcery, so much of his energy was lost that his summon had disappeared as well. He was breathless, and surely I was too. I had never used such powerful magic in my entire life. I never had too, till now.
My question earlier was never answered, who was stronger, no one really knew as we both fell unconscious in the pile of rubble.
Sasarai, a name worth remembering... A face worth seeing...
End of Chapter 1
A/N: How was it? Please read and review! Please also try reading my "Bound to be" fic too. ^_^ I'll be updating the next chapter of it soon...hopefully.
