Time passed by, and no one expected that it's already 4 years when Sirius was born. When he was born his parents Steven and Emily, the old butler Old Goat, and the two maids old maid Nina and Rika was full of happiness and surprises. Sirius already gave them so many suprises when he was born, and when he was growing up he again gave them another surprise.

When Sirius was 1-year old he already know how to by himself, he also started walking by himself. Even though he was walking wobbly, he was still making his progress. There is still when he was 1 and half years old, he can say simple words like "Mom or Dad". When Emily and Steven hear what Sirius they are so happy they started crying.

Sirius grew up as the year passed, he started reading a lot of books despite being in body of baby. He thinks that information is a must because he still  don't knwo what kind of place he was in now currently. He first started reading a story book to avoid being suspicious, everyone knows that children loves story books because it contains heroes and magic stuff.

He then notice that most of the story books he read was all about heroes or mages and magic, rescuing princess from demons. When he noticed this fact he started questioning the existence of magic. So he decided to sneak out of his room to go library where all books was being stored.

Afternoon

All maids thought that young master Sirius is sleep, because most of babies are sleeping during afternoon. So the lack of maid outside Sirius room was normal, when he get out of his crib, he started walking in front of door. 

When he was in front of his door he realized that he was now facing the most serious problem he ever had in his baby life. And that is he can't reach the door knob, this problem Sirius obtain the first feeling he had aside from feeling sleepy. That is he feel stupid even though he was born as a system, he didn't thought about having the problem he was facing now.

Sirius feel ashame of himself, a simple problem from any other humans is now his serious problem. He was now thinking how to overcome the big wall that seperate himself from him and the Paradise of information. This feels stupid from others point of view but for serious this is a serious problem.

He started racking his brain and think of any possible solutions for this situations. Even though he already tried reaching the knob with the help of a small chair to reach the knob but still he can't. Until he thought the most commonly tricked , that is to asked someone to tour him around the mansion and slip out when the maid is busy dealing with some stuff.

Sirius thought the most commonly and the stupidiest solution for a stupid problem he was facing.
He immediately started his plan and call out for a maid using a bell which is beside him.

Ding-a-ling! Ding-a-ling!

Sirius ring the bell twice which was heard by the maid outside. The maid immediately opened the door and asked Sirius.

"Is there something you need, young master Sirius?" the maid asked with a smile on her easygoing face.

Surprisingly the maid has a blonde long hair, she look energetic and easygoing. The maid that opened the door was Rika. When Sirius saw the maid a wicked thought appeared in his mind. He thought.
[Unexpectedly it's Rika, then i can trick her easily.] Sirius thought.

It is rather disturbing despite the fact that serius is a system without emotions he is transforming to more like a human. Like having a wicked thoughts. Which is good, because Sirius is accomplishing his father(creator) wish to live more like a human and experience things that no other system can do.

"Rika can you help me tour around the mansion?" Sirius asked with a innocent face.

Rika was affected by Sirius cuteness. Sirius got his parents genes that is why he look cute and stand out if you compare him to any noble babies around. Sirius has has silver hair, with blue eyes and oval shape face. He looks like the combination of Steven and Emily. That's why Rika was being affected by his cuteness easily.

"Yes of course I can young master!" Rika agreed easily with an energetic face. She is already energetic and when she wants to do something that's another level of being energetic.

Rika and Sirius tour the mansion, Rika was so energetic that it makes Sirius tired. He can't find a chance to slip out from this super energetic maid. Suddenly Sirius tripped over, he fall down on his knee. His knee started bleeding, Rika is panic stricken when she saw this.

"What will!? Oh my goodness, what will I do!?" Rika talking loudly with a panic on her face.

Sirius finally found a chance, a chance that has suddenly appeared in frony of his eyes. A chance that he didn't expect to come. It feels like a card of deck and he picked the Joker. His eyes lit up and started making an excuse to drive away this energetic maid.

"Rika, what are you panicking about! Hurry up and get the First aid Kit!" Sirius shouted.

"Ye-Yes!" Rika replied immediately.

That way Sirius managed to drove away his energetic maid and made his way to the library.

An old scientist who gave up the chance to reincarnate and gave the chance to his system.

The boy did not answer, as he kept standing there, as if reluctant to utter a word. Andrew saw his face, and in a single look he understood that he boy was being shy. He saw that he had small bruises and little scars all over his body.

Andrew decided that it would be better to talk later, and first give him some first aid. He took the boy inside his house, and told him to wait inside the living room, which was quite spacious.

Just as he was about to go and fetch the first aid kid, Andrew said, "I'll go get the first aid stuff from the room upstairs. Don't wander off until then, okay?"

Just as he turned around to look at the kid, he saw that all the injuries were healed, and that he was in perfectly mint condition. This shocked Andrew quite a bit, as all the dust which was all over his face as also gone.

Suddenly, a robotic voice was transmitted into Andrew's brain.

[System has identified its first owner and user. From now on, system will guide user in all ways possible.]

This piece of information completely shocked Andrew, as he had heard about system novels, but this was extremely weird. He couldn't understand why this system had a body of its own? That wasn't even possible, was it!

As he thought about this, the system interrupted his thoughts, and transmitted its voice to him.

[User status analyzed-

Name- Andrew Elclive

Age- 12 years old

Height- 152.5 cm

Weight- 43.5 kg

Physical Condition- Average

Mental Status- Perplexed

Level- 0]

This bit of information came out of the blue, startling him, but he soon recovered. Since he knew about the system's functionality basically, he knew most of what to do, but this system wasn't any ordinary one, as it had its own physical body, and other than that, it had no name, or more commonly said, no goal.

As he thought about this, the system again read his thoughts and interrupted him in between of his thoughts.

[User's memories acquired-

Since the user knows about systems basically, then the system shall sum up a list of basic differences between this system and other normal systems.

*The system has a physical body, and can be useful as a physical ally also.

*The system has the option for the user to choose the specific goal(s) that the user is interested in.

*The system has minimal amount of locked information.

*The system shall share all information automatically to the user which is relevant even if the user doesn't ask.]

Andrew was pretty amazed with the high quality system that he had got. When carefully studied, it was only a new and improved version of the previous, traditional systems.

By the time when he had processed all the information about the system in a systematic manner, he had even been able to get a couple of advantages with this new and improved model. The one he was the most favorable towards was the feature that he could beat up the system, if he is feeling mad because he is out of points, or on a lower level. Normally, it would have been impossible to beat the system up, and the users could only curse it, or abuse and swear at the creator of the system, (which could also be them from their previous lives, or someone close by...) but it was now pretty easily possible for him to vent out all of his anger at the system.

Since there was no default goal, then it would take time for Andrew to think of one, and it wouldn't be difficult, as he had already read about systems, and he knew how they functioned.

Till then, he had to try and think of a way to keep the system inside the house. Since the system didn't have any name, so he thought that he should give him a name. Since he had got a weird, but cool system, he thought that the name should reflect upon some of the qualities.

He finally decided on a name, and called the system, "Multi Purpose Human System".

The system responded to the name in a rather positive manner.

[Name accepted. The system is now named "Multi Purpose Human System"

*DING!*

Achievement Completed- Name

Name- Congratulations on naming the system! Rewards- New Function Unlocked- Goal, 10 Points.

Goal- Goal is the basic fundamental foundation based on which the system functions. To set each goal, 10 points are required.]

The latter part quite shocked him, as Andrew didn't expect earning points and unlocking features so easily. It was quite unpredictable where one could earn points, and Andrew was happy with his first catch.

Currently, he was worried about something. He was worried about the system. He wanted it to stay in the house, but hiding it was a bit risky, so he had to think of other ways. Telling his parents this would be much of a headache, and there will be dire consequences as well, as he knew just how bad systems can turn out to be if the wrong group of people get to know about them.

As he was thinking about this, a thought appeared in his mind. If the human body of the system could behave like a human, then he could disguise him as an orphaned, lonely, poor, and obviously, cute child, due to which his parents would adopt him. He knew their personalities very clearly, especially the fact that his mom couldn't stand cute children without anyone of their own.

This not only applied for human children, but for animals also.

As he thought about disguising, he mentally asked the question to the system. The system was really prompt with its answering speed, and had replied to the question exactly instantly. This impressed Andrew, and also the answer, which had taken care of this huge worry he had.

[Affirmative. The system has a physical body for the purpose of blending in with human life and doing everyday human activities. The human body has got features like scanning with looks, or memorizing, and others, but the voice that the user is hearing is sent directly through telepathy. The human body's voice is that of an average 5 year old male child.]

Now that Andrew knew this, he had to think of a name, and that was a name for the system, for the system's human body. This was easy, as he had to just simply think of any boy name. He decided on Alex, and the system agreed to the name.

Now that the system was all covered up, he had other problems to think of, like choosing a goal, and mopping up all that information from his father's study. The first was still a bit difficult to think of, even if it could be changed, and other goals could be added simultaneously.

As for the latter, Andrew was already sure of what to do. He took the system with him into the room, and told it to scan all the books, from the lowest level of them to the highest level.

After just a short while, the system was done with, and showed the status and the dynamics of the whole study room in just that instant.

[257 books found.

Total amount of pages- 124902.

Total amount of words-107790426.

The book suggested by the system in accordance with the level of the user is- "Guidebook".]

Andrew was shocked by this piece of information, as he stared blankly at the physical form of the system, and asked to summarize the most basic of the information for total beginners which was in "Guidebook".

The system spoke up, drawing Andrew closer in to listen to the complexity of what he was hearing.

[In this world, there are people who utilize the energy from various energy sources, like natural caves, or artificial crystals, and become stronger than normal humans. These are know as "Practitioners". A practitioner can practice in various directions, which are known as "Ways".
There are various Ways in which Practitioners practice. 

The commonly known Ways are-

* Way Of The Elements: Mage

* Way Of The Physique: Fighter

* Way Of The Nature: Healer

* Way Of The Creator: Forger

* Way Of The Shadows: Assassin

Each Way has its own specialties and good features and bad features, just like every coin has two sides.

Each practitioner has to pass through various Levels.

The commonly known Levels are-

* Human: 1-10

* High Human: 1-10

* Sub Deity: 1-10

* Pseudo Deity: 1-10

* True Deity: 1-10]

As Andrew kept on understanding the fundamental concepts, he realized that this was a very deep concept. It was good that he had the help of the system, or else he would not have been able to understand all this in such an easy and simplified manner.

He understood this when he opened the book, and read it. Most of it was filled with useless historical crap, and a list of examples of each stage. At his current level, he had no need of such information.

He quietly cursed the author under his breath, and asked the system to get the information about him form the author's profile, and when he did that, he got to know that the system had a feature of getting all kinds of basic information about people by getting to know so little about them.

After that, he felt a slight shock, and all the hairs on his hands, and even legs, stood up, and remained like that for a solid minute. The system had told him that the author was still alive, and a Practitioner of the Assassin Way, which was all mentioned, but the thing that shocked him the most was his level. 

The system had a hidden function to calculate a person's average speed of Practice, and what Level he or she would be in his or her particular Way in the Practice. All the system needed were some stats, and then because of some calculations which were practically impossible for average humans to perform, it would easily be able to find out all sorts of simple information.

It was found out by Andrew, that the author was 7 High Human, which was a rank that could annihilate Andrew in such a manner that there would be no traces left of the crime, which was even easier because of the fact that he was an assassin.

Andrew felt some sort of fear grip him from all over the whole of his body, as he somehow felt rather guilty about insulting someone of such a high level.

Only two words were able to escape from his mouth, which were, "I'm sorry."

*DING!*

[The system shall guide the user in all ways possible.]

***

After suddenly transmigrating into a magical world, young 12 year old Andrew was already quite startled. But when he saved a little boy from some thugs, (pretty much by chance) the boy turned out to be a "SYSTEM"...

This novel shall follow the adventures of Andrew and his system, which he has named "Multi Purpose Human System", as they do all sorts of crazy stuff.

***

What is different in this novel from other system novels-

1- The system is a HUMAN, and has a physical form! (There is only one reason...)

No certain update schedule and word limit for chapters, but it will increase steadily if I get good ranks.

The academy library was only a short walk away and was quite close to the Elder's Building. The library building from the outside was only a small single storied building and no one will be able to guess that the building holds one of Asia's largest libraries. On the inside, the buildings show its true colours. Instead of a single floor, there were 10 different floors with each floor having a size similar to a football field. It could be said that this library was more than 10 times larger than the Hogwarts library.

This fact is not too surprising. Unlike Britain in which only a single language is used for all purposes, Magical India had more than 15 different official languages due to different tribe's having their very own language. Books written in all these languages were present inside this library. 

One thing I was thankful for in India was that despite there being so many languages, all the spells were in one language, Sanskrit. If every tribe used and taught their own version of spells in their native language, then having an academy will have no meaning. Each elder will teach in his/her language and due to this, the only people who will sign up for their classes will be their own tribe members since no one will be interested in learning a different language just to learn from the elder. If this was going to be the case, then the Elder could have conducted the class in his tribe itself.

Of the more than 15 languages here, I knew only English and Hindi. So I could read only the books in these two languages. The first two floors had only Hindi books while the English book filled a small part of the 10 floor. English was not a common used language here. I had only some average fluency in Hindi so I will have to improve my proficiency in it if I want to make good use of all these books. 

The third and fourth floors had books written in Sanskrit language and I will have to learn the language sometime soon in the future to make my learning process here faster. The language was not commonly spoken in the present era but most of the old and informative books were written in the Sanskrit  language and if I wanted to read and learn from them, I will have to learn language.

Much to my disappointment there was no easy way to solve this problem since there were no magical translators or spells that I could use to translate these books into English. People in India had tried very hard to make this possible over the years but they had failed miserably. I too felt that such a thing was impossible since different languages did not follow a pattern that could be used to magically translate it. Languages did not follow rules and were made by old people on a whim according to their needs.

The people here did invent a spell to make learning language easier though which I am going to make good use of. The spell will make it possible for me to completely learn a language in a month. All I had to do was memorise some books that came recommended with the spell and it will allow me to learn the language quickly. I am planning to use it to perfect my Hindi first and then learn Sanskrit. I did not plan to learn any other Indian language.

The library was huge and I already had a list of books that were recommended to me today that I had to read. I did not have time to waste since I had a deadline which I had to keep. I did not have too much time to waste.

Before going to the Healer section, I decided to visit the English section first since I wanted to see what was available in there. Also it was the language I was most comfortable with in this library. 

To get to the 10th floor, the people here had invented a magical variant of lift. It was a levitating disk on a platform which would follow my command in a way similar to that of a broom and take me to my floor. I liked the idea so much that I wanted to replicate this type of lift in my black castle. I planned on completely renovating the Black castle and this lift was added to the list of changes I wanted to make.

On the 10th floor, the English section was easy to find. The section consisted of 15 large bookshelves filled to the brim with books. This was a small number when compared to the even the Hogwarts library except that the books here were priceless. On glancing through the books, I found that the collection did not have any new books but instead every one of the books was an antique and were more than a 100 years old. Some were even more than 700 years old. Even my black library did not have these book and I wondered where the academy got them from.

The books were calling for me to read them but I controlled myself and went towards the Healer section of the library. I badly wanted to start reading the books but I knew that I had no time for them currently. I could come back here after 3 days and start reading them.

The Healer section on the second was huge with more than 30 bookshelves. I quickly found the books on my list and went towards the Duelling section which was on the same floor. It was not too big just 7 book shelves and I easily found the books recommended to me by Elder Akash. I also checked out the book which will allow me to improve my fluency in Hindi.

The checkout system here was quite unique. First of all, all the books in the library were warded to protect from damage and making copies. At the checkout counter I had to specify the number of days I needed a book. The books had another set of runes that were then programmed in such a way that when the rental period ended, the book will be automatically returned to its original location in the library. The books will also return to the library of I take it outside the academy boundary. I was very impressed by this system.

After checking out the books for 3 days, I left the library as it was time for my next class. The mage sight tutoring with Elder Nainesh. 

When I entered his room he was very excited to start teaching me. I learn the reason for it later during the class. It was due to the fact that my mage sight was different from his and he wanted to compare both and conduct experiments. The main difference was that my mage sight only showed a slight glow in my eyes when activated which his not noticeable while his and his tribes mage sight had tell tale sign when activated. His eyes started twinkling like Dumbledore's glasses when mage sight was activated so he couldn't discreetly use the sight like I always did.

The class was very productive. The method to toggle between different modes was controlling the amount of magic that I sent into my eyes. For the seeing through walls effect I had to rotate my the magic around my eyes. The amount of magic in the eyes and my control in rotating it perfect decided the distance I could see and what I could see.

It was difficult to do since I had not practiced controlling the amount of magic that I could send to my eyes ever in my life. For the first class I did just that. Controlling the magic. By the end of the class I had gotten a slight hang of the method and I could toggle between the modes just for a short few seconds before I lost control. I was sure I could perfect this in a weeks time.

After that productive one hour class, I went back to my room. It was time for me to start reading those books since time was tight. After conjuring a table and a chair, I started reading, beginning with the language book so that my later reading will be quicker.

Prologue: The Story behind Eranoth's Lore-books.

Eranoth stared at the blank pages of his outdated version of Microsoft word. "Growing up, I studied a large assortment of really random stuff in depth. How do I make this useful?" He asked his elder sister, RedPandaChick. 
"I don't have an answer for you, however, I am using my knowledge in writing. Using actual knowledge and applying it to my stories is great!" She replied.
"I'm doing that, but it doesn't seem like enough." Eranoth thought for a bit. My research has almost no real life application though… "Wait! I have an idea!"
RedPandaChick looked up. "Oh?"
"I have wanted to compile my research on various topics into one place anyways. Why don't I write it down and share it. Others can then learn different ways to apply story aspects and I can make my odd knowledge useful!"
The elder sister smiled. "That sounds like a great idea! There is another author that the people in the webnovel chat on discord they call "Wikipedia" because they have answers to a lot of things. This could be a great way for you to get involved in webnovel before you get further in your actual novels."
Eranoth smiled. "I think the other authors may appreciate it."
"I think more than just other authors will appreciate it." She replied.
Eranoth excitedly got to work. Hoping that Eranoth's book of lore research is well liked despite the limited story being told. 
The adult male started writing. "To the readers: As most of the content has actually been created through extrapolation and pondering on the subjects in question rather than from a website or specific sources, there will be very few reference links to actual resources. To authors that are struggling with means to understand the intricacies of things, feel free to message me a "subject" you wish for help understanding. While I cannot guarantee accuracy, especially if it is out of my realm of expertise, the lore I write in these books are fantastic ways to apply concepts. Happy writing!"
"P.S. When I start posting my real stories I hope you will love them!
P.P.S. Sadly, despite all of my theory-craft, no successful real life application has been attained."

Lore Book 1: Shapeshifting: An in depth on the myriad methods of creating change to oneself or others. 

Chapter 1: The basics of shapeshifting

 "Most people think of shapeshifting in a few simple ways." Eranoth muttered to himself as he pondered how to simplify the explanation for chapter 1. "The most commonly accepted method is known as blood-shifting even though most don't call it that. Blood shifting has a few sub-categories but that is for another chapter or 3..." 
Relaxing Gameboy Pokemon music played on youtube as he wrote.
He pet the cat sized white tiger plushy RedPandaChick got him while she was at the zoo last time. "How would you explain it?" 
The inanimate object did not respond. 
Eranoth steeled his nerves as this was something he had put off for years. "Over the ages many people have tried to give shapeshifting a very esoteric definition. For the sake of simplicity I am going to use the following very broad definition. *Shapeshifting is the act of changing from one shape into another.* This broad explanation is actually very inclusive and brings in topics not commonly associated with shapeshifting. But that is a topic for another chapter."
"Shapeshifting has many names. Some of these include: Form shifting, Mutating, Evolving, adaption, Transforming and so on. Despite the fact that these names talk about the same 'over-arching concept', they are actually very different when you get down to the nitty gritty. " 
"Logic is a difficult thing to have when involving shapeshifting outside of the 'norm'. Think about it, how can a frog suddenly become a rabbit? When push comes to shove, how does it actually work? Magically?"
Eranoth face palmed at his own sarcasm.  "Sorry, allow me to clarify. When writing about a magic there is a 'logical' explanation for that magic, how it works, and so on within the realm the magic exists in. Often times, the 'how it works' for shapeshifting, magical or not, is glazed over, especially when it isn't the primary focus of the story. Lawless shapeshifting can actually lore break."
"Take Legendary Moonlight Sculpture for example. There is a low level npc evil priest that casts a transformation type unholy spell and turns a soldier from the enemy into a ferocious wolf that attacks his own best friends. The soldier couldn't stop it or resist. Holy! That is powerful! Why not use that spell to destroy an army rather than a fireball?"
Now let's turn our attention to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. For those who have not read it, I won't go into detail to avoid spoilers. My personal favorite chapter in that whole book is a lore broken transfiguration spell. The target couldn't resist. Their wand fell to the floor. They couldn't use their magic as a result and they became a harmless critter completely at the mercy of the caster. If that much power could be used from a simple spell, then couldn't the dark lord have been stopped ages ago by being turned into a pocket watch?"
Eranoth laughed to himself. "In games it is the same. The MC saves A B and C from transformation curse. But if you really thought about it, if the curse were cast on the MC wouldn't the story suddenly end? Instant game over? Another in game example, MC uses transformation spell to perform task D. They are able to pull it off flawlessly and nobody suspects a thing."
The old pokemon music ended and Eranoth pulled up another song by a remixer named Kamex.  He took a deep breath after complaining about ads about liberty mutual and google fi.
"As you can see, lawless shapeshifing can lead to a plethora of questions and break the lore of a story. However, Shapeshifting shouldn't be a taboo. In fact, when I start posting my own stories on webnovel, you will see that shapeshifting can actually amplify the story or allow for a very different way to affect a story. To be honest, I haven't read many people's works yet. However, I want to applaud the writer Harry_Dresden in regards to his comprehension of shapeshifting within the world of his book Werewolf in another world. Even though it is the easiest of the lore to find information regarding, (Conditional Bloodshifting and Illusion-shifting), every time transformations are involved in his story, the lore is maintained."
"When involving most things in a story, you should consider a few things. What purpose does it have? How does it work within the world I have created? Shapeshifting has a bit more to consider as well. What is the cost? What is the result? How does it happen? Does it end? ETC."
Eranoth put his face into his hands thinking that this is probably too much of an info dump despite the fact that the entirety of the book is intended to be an info dump.  "I should take a break and prepare the chicken I will be using for dinner." He said as he left his computer behind before getting ready to write chapter 2.

Eranoth's Lore books are a series of books about otherworldly lore. They are designed to bring clarification about subjects that are not easily understood. 
This particular lorebook is dedicated to the many methods of shapeshifting. 

Eranoth's actual novels will come out at a later time when they are ready to be unleashed upon the world. Please know that Eranoth's lore books are not his world's lore, they are general lore for the use and adaption of writers.

For those seeking logic for lore, feel free to let me know what types of lore you want me to write books for. Before you get all excited, I WILL NOT waste time writing lore books on topics easily found with google OR adult content. If you want a lorebook on those types of things don't ask.

Happy reading and Writing!
Note: Due to the nature of the book, there is very little 'story' but I have tried to break it up a bit with story to make it less of a straight info dump.

In the following morning, on his way to the musicians’ association in the administrative district, Lucien was very surprised to find that the bagatelle he played at the party last night was being played everywhere in Aalto.
Just like Victor said, it was way easier for a piece of serenade to become popular than for a symphony. 
As soon as Elena saw Lucien coming into the lobby, she waved to him with a big smile on her face.
"Morning, Elena!" greeted Lucien, "Why are you so happy today?"
"I’m happy for you!" Covering her mouth, Elena giggled in a low voice, "Before you arrived, a few noble ladies came to the association to look for you. They were hoping that they could become your piano students. Miss Felicia’s friend, Yvette, was here as well."
Then, she handed a pile of letters to Lucien, "These are all feedbacks from musicians who live nearby."
Lucien took the letters and was about to walk upstairs, but paused a bit and turned to Elena instead, "Can you tell the ladies that this year I won’t accept any students? Apart from being the princess’ music consultant, I still have to work on producing more music."
"Mr. Lucien, how come you’re always that inspired?" Cathy’s eyes were wide open and she asked with great curiosity, "I heard that, aside from the serenade, you also finished recomposing Mr. Hersey’s Canon in D."
Lucien nodded, "I’m just hoping that I can hold my own concert as soon as possible."
"Wow…" exclaimed Elena and Cathy at the same time.
Then, Elena asked Lucien with expectancy, "I understand that you don’t want to have any student right now… but can I ask you some questions related to music once in a while?"
"Of course, we can exchange our ideas," said Lucien. The true reason that Lucien refused to have any student was that, as a sorcerer, he might be found out by the church someday and his students would be in great trouble.
After giving Joseph the music sheet of his serenade for registration, from the window Lucien saw that a purple coach was arriving, which was sent by Natasha.

Natasha, wearing a long black dress, was introducing the books to Lucien, "Some of them are written in common tongue. I take it that you want to start to read them as soon as possible."
That was Natasha, passionate, decisive and motivated. As soon as she decided to do something, she wanted to get it done as fast as she could.
From her introduction, Lucien had a rough idea about the different book sections in the princess’ study. At that moment, a middle-aged man came in and bowed to Natasha, "Your Grace."
Turning around, Natasha nodded to the man and then said to Lucien, "Mr. Bake, from House Hill, is a very reputable scholar and linguist. He is your designated consultant and translator for these books."
Bake was already bald in his forties. A thick pair of glasses was sitting on his round face.
"Thank you, Mr. Bake," said Lucien.
"It’s my great pleasure to serve the princess and to be your consultant, Mr. Evans," Bake bowed slightly to Lucien.
"You’re working on translating the books already, Mr. Bake?" Lucien noticed that there was a thick book under Bake’s arm with many small colorful tags among the pages.
"Yes… as you may see, Mr. Evans, translating these books takes time, and the princess told me about your hunger for knowledge. I’m hoping that I can cover as many books as possible in this study for you, Mr. Evans," answered Bake slowly.
"That’s very nice of you, Mr. Bake." Lucien was grateful, "And thank you, Your Grace." Lucien smiled to Natasha.
"It’s very sweet to see that, young as you are, Mr. Evans, you’re this interested in the ancient language and culture of Sylvanas Magic Empire. You’ll see that their culture was fascinating." Bake walked toward the desk and opened the black book in front of Lucien, "The book that I’m working on right now is Heroes’ Epic, very beautiful poems…" Bake became a bit excited.
"What is this book about?" asked Lucien, "Sorry, I’m… I’m not really well-educated with in history."
"Oh, that’s totally fine." Bake smiled. "The beauty of poem does not require its reader to have much educational background. Instead, it’s something you can feel. Get closer and take a look, Mr. Evans."
Lucien’s long fingers gently ran down the spine of the thick, black book, feeling its antiquity. 
When Lucien was flipping through the pages, Bake said to him, "The poems in the book were written in memory of those great heroes who followed the lead of the God of truth and together overthrew the rule of the vicious mages."
"Fascinating." Lucien quickly went through all the pages, and then in his spirit library the copy of the book emerged on one of the bookshelves in the "Ancient Literature" entry.
Then, Lucien turned to Natasha, "Have you read these books before, Your Grace? Do you have any book that has already been translated?"
"I’ve learned Sylvanas in the noble abbey before. I don’t need translation," answered Natasha casually. "I’m going to the practicing room now. If I have any question I’ll come back for you. Enjoy your reading, Lucien."
After Natasha left, Lucien directly jumped onto the books and started to read them assiduously.
...
In the following month, Lucien gradually gained a new perspective toward the continent and even this whole world from the effort he put on reading.
In order to gain great power and break the limit of the human body, lots of sorcerers and sorceresses in the past operated countless cruel experiments on human beings by infusing them with the different powers extracted from magic creatures. Most of the subjects died, but the ones who made it gained tremendous power. 
Surprisingly, yet undoubtedly reasonable, following the lead of those surviving experiment subjects, people from different parts of the continent who were fed up with being bullied launched uprisings against the empire.
At the same time, the Saint Truth, with its many years of secret development, quickly gained its momentum and became the shared belief for those people. That was when the great powers derived from the magic creatures started to be called "Blessings" and the Saint Calendar started to count, followed by the epic war called "the War of Dawn", which lasted for over four hundred years.
Because Lucien was reading the translated versions of the books, all the texts were shedding glory light on the people fighting against the empire while depicting the sorcerers and sorceresses as terrifying representatives of the darkness and the devil.
At that time, Natasha’s family, House Violet, was guarding the remote west territory of Holy Heilz Empire with the great power of the Violet Knights. In the end of the War of Dawn, House Violet provided the Church with great help and became the biggest contributor to the success of taking down Aalto. The host of House Violet was thus granted the title of the grand duke of Aalto and became independent from Holy Heilz Empire.
In the year 425 of Saint Calendar, the church held one of the most significant synods in history, discussing the topics related to the final stage of the war and the further attack toward the fiend empires across the Dark Mountain Range in the west. However, during that meeting, a great, carefully premeditated divergence over the reading of the doctrine bursted out between some of the grand cardinals and the pope. 
Since then the Church was divided into two. Supported by Schachran Empire and the other duchies, the grand cardinals betrayed the pope and set up a separatist regime in the north. The westward march of the Church’s army was thus stopped.
Lucien realized that the topic of heresy in this world was way more complicated than he thought.
Knowing that the Sword Brothers were stationed on the border between the Duchy of Orvarit and Schachran Empire, Lucien asked Natasha why the Church never started to march westward again. Her answer was very obscure but meaningful, "In most believers’ eyes, the enemy within concerns us more than external threats. Today, no one except the pope knows why those cardinals betrayed us."
Lucien also read from the books that the the frontline against the heresy was formed by the north provinces of the Duchy of Orvarit, the Kingdom of Syracuse and Holy Heilz Empire. Among the total of 60 kingdoms, duchies, empires and territories on the continent, most of them retained their glory through the years. However, in some, like the Gusta Empire to the far south, the royal family had lost their control over the empire, since the several preeminent noble families in Gusta seized a major part of the political and economical power.
Besides, there was a continental sea in the center of the continent, which was called Storm Sea. Natasha’s mom was the princess from the kingdom across the Storm Strait, although very little reference could be found about that kingdom.
...
Two weeks before the new year, sitting in front of the fireplace, Lucien was reading Astrology and Magic Elements.
After the great amount of reading, now Lucien could already understand the most commonly used characters in Sylvanas.

"A falling star has brought the chaos. The throne of fate has lost its master. The nonbeliever who walks in light and darkness will make his debut."
In this magic world, knowledge is power.

Belinda didn't have any plans for the day. She went back to her room and refined fruit candies until the next morning. She felt bored. She already read all the books in her space. She read the last book she borrowed when Horác visited her. She wanted to know the ending of that book, but it was left in her room. Horác put it on the table and she forgot about it.
Belinda looked out of the window and saw it was already dawn. She went down but didn't see anyone. She took out her swords and went out to practice.
When Szelim came out, he saw her walking on the pond's surface and repeating some sword's skills. He didn't remember how many kinds of weapons he made until now, but this twin swords idea really surprised him. Because the main raw material was ice crystal it was stronger than those low level weapons with soul. He wanted to see its full strength after merging it with a soul, but ice beasts were already scarce. He was afraid, they could only find low level twin monsters. That way the swords would lose their advantage.
He saw Bertold stood next to the table and walked over. „I heard the swords' draft was drawn by you. Horác was extremely proud when he showed it to me." he sat down and looked up and down at him. „You have the talent to create new types of weapons, but you don't seem to be interested in it."
„Not really." Bertold sat down at the other side of the table. „I let her try out a lot of kinds of weapons and I slowly analyzed what would be the most suitable for her style. I tried to make her become used to the tonfa, but unknowingly she always changed the way she held it."
„Uh." Szelim's eyes lit up. „So did you became irritated because she couldn't use any weapons properly and draw a new one for her?"
Bertold looked at him but didn't answer. If it wasn't the academy's rule, he would never teach a student. He knew most of the mentors didn't take seriously their job. They asked one of their friends to let their students train together. Most of them didn't even let them try out different weapons to find a suitable one. Sword was the most commonly used and had a lot of skills. It was the best choice for everyone.
Bertold's mentor wasn't different. He gave him a sword with some skills books and paired him up with Zotmund. If that man didn't appear once every 3 months he would completely forget that he had a mentor. But he completely gave up on him, when Horác accepted him as his helper.
Zotmund's mentor, Nani was the girlfriend of his mentor, so he heard about him a lot. They continued to train together and the woman visited them once a week. Bertold really hated those days. Nani always complained about his boyfriend and Zotmund worked hard to become a perfect playboy. He did a good job to help them break up, but that's a different story...
Even if it was a job he hated, Bertold didn't wanted to be an unreliable mentor. He read some books and prepared a teaching plan for his student. He never thought that on the first day they met everything would turn upside down...
When Szelim gave up to get an answer Bertold finally spoke. „No... New weapon means new skills... It was a pleasure for me to learn a lot of new things."
„So it was a trial to you." Szelim laughed. „But I see you did a good job!"
„Of course!" Bertold smiled. „I can't ruin her future."
Belinda trained until Sal ran out and asked her to summon Lucia. She gave him the cat and went to greet the others.
She sat down next to them. „Are there any attractions in the city?"
After a day of boredom, Belinda wanted to go out. She wasn't interested in shopping and Horác didn't mentioned any plan too. She didn't know when she would have the chance to come back here in the future, so she hoped to see the sights of the city.
„Uh, it depends on what you want to see." Szelim scratched his chin. „The most favored place is the city center. As you already saw, it only has shops, hotels, and restaurants. The suburb is divided into different districts. On the east side of the Smith district are the Tailor district, then the Embroidery district. On the west side are the Jewelsmith, then the Sculpture district. These are the closest ones... But even if you go there, you can't see too many things."
Belinda sighed. She realized she asked the wrong person. She looked at Bertold.
„... I only come here 3 times and never left the city center." he said embarrassedly.
Belinda was sad. She didn't know how long Horác intent to stay here, but she didn't want to train and refine candies during her vacation. Even if she just wanted to go out for a walk, she needed someone to accompany her.
„If you want to go out and play, I can show you some good places." Sal suddenly appeared next to them.
„Really?!" Belinda was surprised. She was happy but knowing Sal's personality, she was afraid he would lose her. The city was too big, she didn't want to be left behind in an unknown place. 
„I wanted to go out with Lucia and show those places to her, but I was afraid you don't let us go. Now if we go together it'll be okay." he laughed happily.
Belinda still felt that it wasn't a good idea and looked at Bertold.
„I go with you." he promised.
Belinda calmed down a little and ate her breakfast. She tried to ask Sal about where they would go, but he just smiled mysteriously.
Szelim watched them and sighed. He didn't think it was a good idea, but he didn't want to look after the kids so he just let them leave together and let it gave them a good lesson.

It's my first novel and I'm learning slowly. I know there are mistakes, but I love this story more and more. I hope others will enjoy it too.

After dealing with the disciple that acted in a very similar way to the first guardian of the barrier I met in this life, all the way back in the sword sect city, I followed his advice and went all the way to the doors that would lead me to the goose sect… Only to move past them and start counting the doors on either side. With how I lacked even the general knowledge about this place, its customs, history and literally anything but just a few bits that I learned from the random people I met on my way here, there was no point trying to learn specialistic parts right away.
After passing through exactly thirty doors more, half of each side of the plain but perfectly even corridor, I finally reached my first destination. Yet, despite how insane the barrier protecting this place was, the doors leading to the main building of the library that all the sects had access to, the doors that most likely lead to its main chamber, looked far plainer than I expected!
Without even a hint of decoration of any sorts on them, they only gave off the slightly robust feeling, as if the planks that made up the blockade between the corridor and the room came from some kind of insanely thick tree, that locals were unable to cut into thinner pieces.
Yet there was no point in pondering over the reasons and tricks inhabitants of the heavenly city used. Rather than that, my time would be better used on versing through the books and scripts!
Not willing to waste my time any more, I placed my hand on the door, before pushing it wide open. Yet instead of seeing a grand palace filled with shelves bending under the weights of the scrolls and books stored on them, the interior of the general library was just as plain as the corridor that leads to it!
While the small disappointment filled my mind, I still followed the main alley of the room to the central shelves, instantly picking up random books and opening them on random pages.
*...during the sixth crusade, the forces of the Juterian Princedom and Gurian Dominate took part in the infamed massacre of the angelic sect…*
*... teachings proved the superiority of the Natan superstition over the Hetan rationale…*
*... downfall. If not for this, it is assumed that the Ulian dynasty could remain at the top of the eastern federation government…*
Just the first three books I looked through proved how silly I was when I thought that I could catch up with all the important parts of the knowledge commonly possessed by the locals just by looking through some books! If I wanted to learn everything that even a kid of the locals knew, I would've to spend at least just as much time as a said kid would spend listening to the teachings of his parents!
"Do you need some help with that? It's not like all the points that are lying around your status have to be used all at once for your statistics only…"
Just when I was about to give up on my drive to read through those books, Bonger came to my rescue, or at least that's what I thought from the context of his words.
*Would you mind to elaborate? You should know I won't spend that many points only for quickening the process of reading all those books!*
While scripts could provide quite a bit of information, it would be far easier for me to just find some random cultivator, charm him to the near-death state and pull all the vital parts about everything I deemed necessary to know than invest my hard-earned points into some single-use tool!
"Well, I won't make you read them all, but I have a tool just for you. It costs only one thousand points and can scan all the written forms of text and then form all the information into a database that you could read on the spot rather than looking for various bits of the information. So, how it will be? Just keep in mind, it won't make you suddenly know everything from those books and scrolls, as you will have to go through all the gathered data yourself!"
Thinking about this, for the current me, a thousand points wasn't all that much. Rather, it was something I could easily get by a single essence gathering session a few times over, and considering how the monsters of my current level were stronger as well, maybe even there was some way to gather attribute points rather than the experience itself?
*Okay then, but just this once. You know I don't really like wasting my points like that.*
With my agreement, I felt just a small tingle somewhere in my head, before I saw a small sphere around me, that turned everything within its confines just slightly more bright. With just a single attempt, I managed to turn it off and clear my vision from this strange artefact, yet when I wished for it to appear once again, the books that were covered in this strange shine before, now turned completely dim, as if I was no longer able to access them!
��This sphere should be far bigger than what you have right now… It seems that the barrier in this place influences its maximum reach. That means you will need to go around the entire library to make sure all the books and scrolls will be enveloped by the aura of the database tool for at least a single moment!"
Thanks to Bonger's explanation, I didn't need to wander around trying to figure out the way to use this tool by myself, especially with how I was sure that the tool that would explain the usability of all the other tools I had in my system would cost some exorbitant amount of attribute points!
With no better way to use my time, I simply walked around the library, taking up an elated look on my face, as if just being surrounded by this insane wealth of knowledge was enough to put me in the tranquil state of mind. Even though simply running around the place would be more efficient in terms of time required to gather all the data I could from it, considering how I wasn't the only one using this place at the moment, while I could save a few minutes, I would risk quite a bit of scorn and even worse - quite a bit of attention falling right on top of my head!
Thinking about all the exploits that I would have to make true in the near future, I wasted even more time, stopping from time to time, picking up a book, looking through a few of its pages before shaking my head with faked disappointment and putting it back to its place on the shelf, only to resume my slow march through the alleys.
By the time all of the books were finally collected by my tool and most likely converted into simple streaks of data before put into organised tables by either Bonger himself or the other part of the system's tool, I could feel my legs protesting about all the walking that I have done in this painfully slow pace!
But I wasn't done for today! Even if I could learn about everything accessible to the general public now, there was no way I would go back before all the data from the Goose sect exclusive area of the library would fall into my hands as well!

Pace had brought Leon away from the field where the lecture was held to a park like area in the clan walls. Pace led Leon into the park and brought him near to a small man made lake in the park. 

"What happened there, why were you so easily triggered?" Pace asked.

"Nothing really, just didn't like the elder." Leon didn't look Pace in the eyes. Rather he sat down near the edge of the lake and  skipped a rock on the pond. 

Pluck. Pluck. It then sunk.

"Leon, you haven't awakened your soul book so everyone thinking that you're trash isn't something I can stop. But I know you aren't trash and soon they'll see it too so don't get to worked up about it." Pace seemed to understand Leon's feelings.

"Thanks, Pace. I just wasn't right in the mind. I'll go back home for now."

"Just rest, this brother here would go through hell for you, no need to get to worked over things when you have me."

"Thanks again."

Pace messed Leon's hair and went back to deal with elder Raymond.

Waiting until Pace was far enough Leon got up and and patted the dust off his pants. His eyes lost their glimmer.  

He threw a Rock, pluck, pluck, pluck... It skipped until it landed on the other side of the pond.

"Finally I can leave! This Pace, it looks like he's my 'brother'. No one else acted when I spoke, so I think he should be my only friend."

"From talking with him I can tell he actually does think of me as a younger brother or he's such a good actor that he can fool even my eyes."

"I didn't meet him in the first 5 years in this life, so I can't tell how are relationship grew to us becoming 'brothers'."

Leon thought it was rather strange, he didn't have any siblings and was always alone most of his life. He had a few friends but all of them eventually abandoned him or betrayed him in his past life. He wondered how his younger self made a friend.

"But because of him being junior head instead of Hans, Hans will be easier to deal with." 

The Junior Head position was a prestigious position that only the most talented, strongest and popular voted person in the clan could get. They were always in the spotlight, being the leader of the young generation. 

Hans, was the son of the Clan head, he had been elected as junior head in Leon's past life. He had grown jealous of Leon's talent and treatment from the Clan head, his father, which led to him eventually betraying the clan.

He was one of the reasons Leon's life grew to be so tragic, but Leon didn't want revenge, to him it was something that had happened long ago and killing him wouldn't help him. Hans was too weak to be even brought into the category. What he wanted was to use him to get in contact with the people he betrayed the Clan for.  

Leon walked out of the park and started making his way to the clan libraries.

The Flamesmith clan had two libraries, one was the Library of Arts, containing Summoning Arts. These were the skills practiced by Summoners to make their beasts and themselves stronger.

Then their was the Library of Knowledge, this library contained all books from geography to the history of the continent. It had books explaining summoning and theories about the world.

*Libraries in this were a sign of status. The better the Library the better the Clan was. This was because the more books you had, the more arts you had. The more runes you had. 

There were even majestic and heavenly libraries known as the 5 grand libraries. These libraries contained knowledge on all aspects, it said that if you were allowed a day in the Grand Library you would know more then all people on the planet combined. 

There were then the 22 Great Libraries. These were all libraries of ancient races and clans. Each one contained at least one Heavenly Art. An art that went beyond the way of the mortal. They taught the way of a God.*

He arrived to a three story building- it was the Library of Arts. He walked through the door to enter the library and saw that there were few people inside reading. 

The ground floor of the Library which he had just entered was ten meters tall. Leon felt tiny seeing the forest of tall shelves filled with books reaching the ceiling. 

An elderly woman wearing pointed glasses sat behind a desk while reading a book. She stopped reading and saw Leon. 

"Leon what are you doing here? aren't you suppose to be at the lecture?"

Leon looked at the lady and at first had no clue who she was. But as he stared at her more he remembered this was suppose to be the Aunt Reva his mother had briefly talked about.

Leon looked embarrassed, "I was thrown out for being disrespectful. So I came here to look around. Aunt Reva, can you tell me where the arts are?"  

"You were thrown out?! Boy what did you do?"

"Elder Raymond angered me a little and so I ended up speaking out a bit too much." 

"Oh, it was Raymond that was giving the lecture, I understand why you would be annoyed, just seeing his face is enough to ruin my day. Come I'll show you where the arts are."   

Aunt Reva took off her pointed glasses and put them on the desk she then led Leon near the front to a small broken shelf with withered and dust covered books on it.

"Are these all the arts?" 

Obviously they weren't, this place was called the Library of Arts! All the books in it were arts!

Leon knew this but at the moment he was acting his part as a naive child. He was also surprised by the condition and the amount of books. He hadn't visited this library before in his past life. Since, when he was young, all the arts he practiced were pre-chosen and given to him. So he never got a chance to see the Library. 

Aunt Reva could see Leon's disappointment. 

"These aren't all the arts, but these are the only arts people who haven't awakened a soul book can read. I'm sorry Leon, this looks so pitiful because barely anyone comes here to read these arts."

Seeing the disappointment increase on the face of the young and weak body Aunt Reva felt her heart soften. His mother and him were so pitiful. She could not understand why the heavens would do such injustice to them.

"Did you know that arts are commonly broken into 5 ranks?" 

"No." Leon answered, he wasn't lying since he knew they were broken into 8 ranks. Hearing that people that there were only 5 ranks made him nostalgic.

"They are broken into, <Tier 0>, <Tier 1>, <Tier 2>, <Tier 3> and <Tier 4> arts. The strongest is <Tier 4> while the weakest is <Tier 0>. All <Tier 4> arts are kept by the Clan head, <Tier 3>, <Tier 2> and <Tier 1> are in this library. While all <Tier 0> arts the Flamesmith has are the books on this shelf. All the other <Tier 0> arts have been donated away to the public library."

"Right, I remember now! Wait... Aunt Reva you said 'commonly broken into 5 ranks' does that mean there is a higher rank art? I've heard about <Tier 5> Arts as well, are they real?"

Aunt Reva nodded, "<Tier 5> arts do exist. <Tier 5> arts are the legendary arts that are even kept in the highest security in even the strongest clans." 

"You know the inferno Clan, the Clan of that elder Raymond, they have a Tier 5 art called <Blazing Inferno Art>. I was lucky enough to see it be used."

She paused and saw the excitement in Leon's eyes, his were glimmering as he silently urged her to talk about her experience. Aunt Reva smiled and started recounting the tale.

"A giant beast, bigger then the size of this building called <Berserker Flame Mammoth> had red enraged eyes as it charged at the inferno clan using its <Berserk Bulldoze>." Aunt Reva explained with passion.

"The inferno Clan Head summoned his beast, <Blazing Hell Hound>. The two headed hound  barely two meters tall, had looked at the gigantic beast about to stomp at. It's mouths opened, the <Blazing inferno art> activated and sent two twisting inferno flames at the <Berserker Flame Mammoth>. The Dragon like flames swallowed the Mammoth whole, setting it alight with flames reaching the heavens. The Mammoth's highly fire resistant body charred and melting. It was defeated in a single move!" 

"Wow..." Leon said with an expression of awe. 

He then snapped out of his fake trans and nodded, "Amazing! <Tier 5> arts are so strong! Aunt Reva I'll start looking for a <Tier 0> art, thank you!" 

"If you don't understand anything in the books you can ask me." Aunt Reva said, then walked back to her desk. 

Leon turned back to the dusty shelf and picked up a random book. He then started flipping through it. 

"So the <Tier 5> art <Fiery Cloud Art> is still a secret, only the Clan head and the High elders should know about its existence. If things go  as they did in my past life, it should be stolen in a few days. I'll get it then." Leon nodded. He shut the book and picked up another one. 

"I need to look for an art that I can cultivate to make my body stronger. At the moment I barely have any elemental energy so I'll need to cultivate a <Tier 0> art for now." Leon continued to flip through the books on the shelf. 

When Aunt Reva had said that mortals or rather people that haven't become Summoners can only cultivate <Tier 0> arts she wasn't wrong. It was just that without a soul book it was hard to absorb elemental energy and have control over it. So other then <Tier 0> arts that were very simple and didn't require much elemental energy, mortals couldn't cultivate anything else.

However it was different for Leon, as a 600 hundred year old monster who had cultivated all his life energy manipulation was ingrained into his bones. Although he wouldn't be able to cultivate all arts above <Tier 0>, he could cultivate the arts that he had cultivated in his previous life.

Leon put the last book on the shelf back and walked out of the Library. 

"Not a single art focused on cultivating the body. Hopefully they'll have one at the Public Library." 

The public Library was outside. Leon made his way to the gate to leave the clan. The way there was as he remembered. At the gate he showed that he had his Clan token and walked out. 

The town wasn't particularly big. Much smaller then what he remembered it to be at this time in his past life. 

"Since I wasn't born as a talent this time, the town didn't prosper as much." Leon thought. 

And Leon wasn't wrong, in his past life he was born with heavenly talent. Because of this the Flamesmith clan had been secretly supported by the Council of Fire.

The Council of Fire was the ruling government of the Fire Continent. It was the strongest power, that kept everything in check. They controlled the clans and the law enforcement of the continent. They were also responsible for the protection of the continent and its people. 

Only the strongest and most talented cultivators could join it. Joining the Council of Fire was the dream of all Summoners in the Fire Continent. It was the greatest honour on you get and with the vast amount of resources you would be able to grow faster as a summoner.  

Leon arrived at the public library.

Long ago beast and humans were living together in harmony. 

But all changed the demons broke through dimensions and attacked. 

They killed and spread chaos. 

The beast divided into two. One faction joined the humans while the other allied with the Demons. 

The humans and beast formed contracts to cultivate together to grow stronger faster. 

Through many sacrifices they banished the demons from the world.

Now millions of years later. 

In a small town a boy was born. He spent his life in pain, misery and war. Through the worst of fates he was killed by his own beast. 

He was given another chance by mysterious means and was brought back in time.

"Revenge will be so... sweet."

Ellundril.
A world of sword and magic.
The inhabitants of that place have many enemies. Monsters, demons and even other humans. The strange system existing within allowed living beings to raise their strengths by fighting or through hard work. Where they could hence see the according raise in their statistics and levels.

Our main protagonist, not yet very known of the world goes by the name Wangzar Delainess. He is a very eccentric young man. First, he has his hairs blue. Something only him had since centuries and which caused him a lot of torments. Other youngsters loved to play pranks on him while adults despised him, he didn't receive much love aside from his parents. They deeply love him. One of them, his father the earl Sidik Delainess, is a descendant of the side branch of the King's lineage. Whereas his mother is the daughter of Dawnbreak family's current head Dirvir. Her family is a noble one and the longest present until this days but isn't as rich as it used to be.

The second reason he was flagged as an eccentric was caused mainly by his two hobbies. He loves magic but he has no talents so he spent a good part of his youth readings many books about magic, history and creatures. That quickly led to his other hobby. Since his father wanted him to learn the art of the sword, he often disappeared from sight. Sometimes reading in the Dungeon, or on the wall. Sometimes reading in the kitchen or even going outside to the nearby forest in spite of the dangers. They were his reading spots found as he lurked around, searching for new books.

"Way of the summoners". That was the strangest and most mysterious book found by him so far. When he was seven and only one year after he learned how to read, he stumbled upon an old wooden chest in a corner of the deepest part of the castle's library. It was there since a long time according to the amount of dust accumulated on top of it, the wood, however, was still sturdy and beautiful despite some cracked lines as if it defied the flow of time. Inside was a blue book that strangely matched the color of his hairs. The letters or perhaps words were runes he had never seen before. Symbols from another era along with very complicated drawings of magic circles.

When he asked Sidik, he was told that the chest was there even before the earl's birth. But that no one wanted to go near it, as if repelled by some weird powers and the chest was eventually forgotten. No one around Wangzar knew about the letters but he could find himself having some deep feelings regarding them as if he would one day understand the mysteries hidden within the runes. At that time, he still didn't know of the book's name: Way of the summoners. 

Now that he is eleven years old. New books were a rare sight and he already had read all of the books within the castle. He spent most of his times studying the blue book in a clearing at the forest east of the castle, hidden from all.

It wasn't that he has no siblings - He has a younger brother and an older sister - or other kids his age, but he isn't liked by them. The main reason is because of his hair, blue hair is only known from an old race, the Elsheens. Almost no record remain of them except for the fact that they were evil, and the "good King Almericus" had won a campaign against them, saving humanity long ago. Whether he was part of that race or not was unknown but he was truly born from Sidik and Yilyen's union.  The other reason was that he didn't try to befriend them. He felt no reason to meddle with people who didn't like him.

From all his research until now, he found that there are two types of summoning. The first one is the direct summon of monsters or entities such as elementals. They would appear when summoned and disappear when they die, or when the mana was too low to maintain them. The more concurrent summons one maintained and the more exponential the consumption would be. The second type of summoning was a contract type. That could either be done directly with a being that accepted a contract of master and servant relationship. Or through a summoning circle. 

Beings summoned in this way usually showed hostile behaviors. But if he could beat them they would have no choices but to accept the contract.

Wangzar thus decided after he succeeded summoning his first monster, a wolf, that now is finally the time to test the second option. If anything goes wrong, he could just halt the summoning and the being would return to its place.

After stealthily going into the castle's storage, he stole a purse containing the necessary mixture for drawing circles together with different tools, inks, and a pile of parchments.

Wangzar then began his serious training. Besides the times when he has meals with his family and the time he spends sleeping, most of his time is used in learning how to draw magic circles. Whenever he is not studying them he usually tries to decipher more about the long remaining part of the blue book which seemed to talk about magic and elements.

The only person he talked to on his own volition aside from his family is the court mage of the castle. Today Wangzar specifically went to meet him since he has a few questions to ask.

"Hello, sir Isledel. May I take a bit of your time? Today I have a few questions regarding magic circles."

"Little Wangzar, you are still trying to mess around with magic circles, they are dangerous, you have to be careful. But fine, ask your questions."

Isledel is an old man, past his fifties. His gray long hair and beard were really fitting the wrinkles of his face. The man was among the rare who like Wangzar. The Earl's child devotion toward magic was what made him change the way the court mage saw him.

"Look here this magic circle, it is one that should be able to stir the spell "Torchlight". Can you verify if I drew it well, I want to try it." Wangzar took a scroll out of his leather bag.

Torchlight was, according to its name, a magic from the light attribute that brought sparkling light akin to a torch. Wangzar wanted to use it since winter was near and the sun was setting down more and more early.

"The details of the circle are accurate, the main line is well drawn as well and the roughness you still did a week ago isn't there. You should not only be able to use this scroll for the Torchlight spell, but the scroll should also be usable a few times. Try it." After Isledel checked the drawing, he returned the scroll to Isledel.

"Yes! I'll try it right away."

The moment enough of Wangzar's magical power was poured inside the scroll, a white bulb appeared 50 cm above the parchment held in his right hand. Light stretched across and the room became a bit brighter.

"Ahah I succeeded!" Said Wangzar, a rarely seen smile appeared on his face.

"You truly did Wangzar, that's wonderful! You have way more talent for this than magic."

"I can keep going forward now! Say, Isledel, could you tell me what I could improve on this drawing."

"Here, the curve is slightly too bent. And this line could be heavier..."

"I understand, what if I did that, could the spell still work?"

"That… I don't really know. If you had another line crossing this symbol, I think the spell will not work and the scroll might even explode…"

Torchlight is one of the easiest spell commonly spread for beginners. It is harmless but helpful in many situations. However, the young Wangzar couldn't even cast it. He has enough mana, that isn't the problem. Even his incantations are good. When his parents made him take the test to see how much mana he possessed, the result showed that he even has an amount far higher than the average. The problem lay with his main element, it is impossible to determine. 

Humans can have varying abilities regarding magic. They more commonly had a better ability for fire or water, sometimes to more rarer elements and rarely to none. Wangzar is an exception. He has affinities but the test couldn't determine what they are.

That's why he is now trying to learn how to use scrolls. They convert the elements gathered in the air directly instead of using one's body as a vessel and produced a spell as long as enough mana was infused. Scrolls are often used when one was bad with elements. They could also be used by someone who had a sufficient amount of mana but didn't follow the path to become a mage. They are popular but not that common since they are really difficult to produce. Even the court mage of the Earl's castle has limits about what he can draw and he needs to take time for each scroll. If Wangzar can obtain sufficient result in the art of scrolls, it will be a great help for his future.

Depending on the quality of the drawing and parchment, the number of time a scroll could be used and the puissance of the spell would differ. The different designs were often the fruit of long research and experimentations from passionate magicians. It is really hard for someone to transplant an incantation into lines, circles and runes.

The magic circle Wangzar has to draw for the summoning is far more complicated than the one for the Torchlight spell.

Time passed after his meeting with Isledel and Wangzar is now 2 months away from his twelfth birthday. Earl Sidik once again arbored a discussion with his wife.

******

"My lovely wife, do you really think we have to send our child to the mage school in the capital?"

"Sidik, the Striould academy is the perfect place for Wangzar. They will definitely help him in his study of magic."

"But even though he loves magic, he has never succeeded in launching a spell. And I'm afraid his blue hair…"

"Our Wangzar has already checked everything in the castle, he has read every book more than once. In the academy, he'll have powerful teachers and a wider library. Besides, the academy accept students from everywhere. Be it beastmen or elves."

"Alright, you got a point. But to reach the academy, it's a 3 weeks trip in a carriage. We have to give him a powerful escort."

******
