Chapter 577: Dark History

It all happened when Maria was a little girl.

She had barely been four years old, and her Mana training had officially begun.

Since she was a genius, she had Awakened much earlier than others—at the age of three years old.

As a result, while others had still been trying their hardest to get past the threshold, she had already begun learning the concepts of Magic.

If there was one word to use to describe the elegant young girl, it would be 'Genius!'

Maria was the genius of the Helmsworth family—one of the great 4 Nobles.

The Crimsons, the Leonards, the Netherlores, and the Helmsworths.

Their families were as old as the Eastern Kingdom itself, so her family had access to numerous resources.

Still, according to what she had been told, she was a bright star in their family—one whose talent was unmatched.

Maria, at that point, felt glad.

While it hadn't been something she chose for herself, she relished the fact that she was special.
