Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - Being Adopted by the Silva Royal Family
In the dark night, 2 figures carrying something have arrived in front of a house, and are talking to a figure with silver hair.
"What do you two want?"
"We want you to take care of our baby boy. His name is Fred Uriel. In return for taking care of him, I will give you a Seraphim's Blessing. It will be able to nullify a curse of any strength of your choice within 10 years, or can greatly weaken the effects of curses, making them take at least 10x the amount of time to completely take effect."
"I don't know why I would need that, do you think you could tell me? If you have a good reason and tell me why you want me to take care of him instead of you, I might take care of him."
"I am of the angel race and my grandfather has the ability to see into the future. In the future you are cursed by devil magic when protecting your children from a devil contractor, which kills you a year later. We can't take care of Fred because we need him to save this world from when the devils escape from the underworld, and a person called Lucius Zongratis from doing as he pleases, which eventually ends in the end of this world."
The silver haired woman thinks for a while before saying.
"Alright. I will take care of him for you. I won't be able to give a good reason to my children and your baby that they will accept until I get cursed by the devil contractor and your blessing works. If it is alright with you, I will tell them that you saved my life with your life, and in return I am taking care of your child in your stead."
"Thank you for this. I will give you the Seraphim's Blessing now."
One of the figures said as 6 wings bloomed from her back, with holy-like energy radiating around her. She leaned down and gave the silver haired woman a kiss on the forehead.
When the silver haired woman got kissed, a golden mark appeared on her forehead, before it disappeared shortly after. The woman put away her angel wings and handed Fred to the silver haired woman, saying to her.
"Fred is a hybrid race of a high human and angel, so he will be able to use two types of magic and should be able to have two grimoires. Please take good care of him for us?"
"I will. Take care of yourselves."
After they heard this, the two figures that arrived at the house began to leave, and the silver haired woman returned to the inside of the house. The silver haired woman had one of the maids in the house get a crib, which she put the baby inside.
The silver haired woman looked at the baby closely and noticed that he looked extremely cute, with bright silver eyes, and felt holy, sacred, and peaceful. The baby has a pendent on his chest that consisted of a chain and a holy yellow gem, that within it has 6 angel wings inside.
The silver haired woman stayed with Fred for a while before leaving, closing the door behind her. Fred opened his silver eyes and saw a lightning spirit in front of him.
The spirit looks like a muscular man with lightning like hair and beard. The spirit is wearing lightning like small shorts and small top, making his muscles more prominent.
'Little man, I have contracted with you. My name is Thor and I am a lightning spirit. We can communicate in our minds, but you probably won't know what I am talking about.'
'I can understand you. I believe that I have been reincarnated from another world into this one. Do you think that since you are a lightning spirit, that you could use extremely small and finely controlled lightning to do lightning forging, strengthening my body?'
'Sure, I can do that. However, I will only do it for 10 minutes a day for this month, 15 minutes for the next month, and 30 minutes when you become 1 year old.'
'Thank you Thor.'
Thor then began to use a very small amount of lightning to start lightning forging Fred's body.
******
It has been a few days and Fred is playing with the silver haired woman who is Acier Silva. Acier is using her silver magic to create small animals that Fred is watching and playing with.
After some time, Fred held out his hand and tried to use magic. After struggling for about 5 seconds, a small holy light came out of his hand, and created a small ball filled with holy light.
Acier: "Oh my god, Fred! You actually used magic! And it should still be the extremely rare light magic or something similar!"
Acier and Fred looked amazed as Acier exclaimed loudly. After they played for another 10 minutes, Fred fell asleep due to mana depletion.
Acier picked up Fred and put him back in his crib, before leaving and closing the door behind her.
******
It has been 6 years and Fred now is as tall as the average 10 year old. He has brilliant golden yellow hair and dazzling shining white teeth. He has extremely strong, streamlined muscles and still immature face.
Fred has 2 spirits following him at all times, however most of the time they are invisible. The new spirit is named Vulcan and is the Great Fire Spirit. Vulcan seems to be a man made out of flames, with a flaming moustache and wearing garbs made of flames.
Fred has learnt from Vulcan that there used to be 2 great spirits of the elements of fire, water, wind, and earth, with there being 1 of the regular great spirits like Undine and Sylph and 1 of the dragon great spirits like Salamander and Leviathan.
There is currently 3 great spirits of each of the 4 elements, because there was an extremely strong Spirit Magic user that had a spirit of each of the 4 elements, and evolved them into great spirits.
Fred is currently training his magic with Noelle Silva, the youngest daughter of Acier Silva that was born 3 months after Fred.
Noelle has silver hair that is made into a braided pigtail hairstyle, and has pink eyes. Noelle is wearing whitish-silver clothes, also wearing a whitish-silver cape.
Fred is helping Noelle learn how to better control her magic, while also training his own magic. Fred has found that his magic are called Spirit Magic and Holy Magic.
Spirit Magic allows him to contract multiple spirits and use the elements of the spirits that he has contracted. Spirit Magic also allows Fred to see souls and where different spirits are.
Holy Magic allows him to purify curses or poison, heal, attack, defend, etc. and is extremely versatile. It is also extremely effective against devils. Holy Magic allows Fred to see malice, goodwill, and the intent of others.
Fred: "Noelle, you have to concentrate on the water ball. After you have concentrated on the water ball, try to make it form different shapes. It could be an animal, object, shape, etc. Once you have created a shape that you like, you can try to make it more detailed, and then change the shape."
Noelle: "Okay Fred. I will try."
Noelle began to slowly change the shape of the water ball that she has created. It took a minute to change the shape of the water ball to become a fish, and another 5 minutes to make it much more detailed.
Fred is using Holy Magic to create a sword, making it more dense, and also making it more detailed and fine. He is also using Holy Magic to create a shield, doing the same thing that he did with the sword.
Noelle then began to change the shape of the water ball from a fish into a lance. After she did this, she tried to make it more condensed like Fred is doing, but failed as the lance fell apart and the water fell to the ground.
Fred and Noelle continued to train for about 3 hours, as Fred was able to create a sword and shield out of Holy Magic, and make it as dense and detailed as he possibly can in an instant.
Noelle was able to instantly change the shape of the water ball that she created, however she still takes around 5 minutes to make it extremely detailed and dense.
Fred: "Noelle, let's take a break. We've got to do the physical training for the next 2 hours after a 10 minute break."
Noelle: "Fred, why are we even doing physical training?"
Fred: "It's because our bodies are the container that stores our mana. It has a limit on the amount of mana that it can hold, which can also be increased if our bodies get stronger, which is also why everyone's mana will increase the older they get until middle aged, and will decrease when people get older than that."
Noelle: "Do you think that it would be okay for Mimosa to also join us in our training? She really wants to get stronger and keep up with your footsteps, like I am currently doing."
Fred: "Of course she can. You can invite her to come at any time."
As they were taking a break, they were talking to each other.
After the break ended, Fred and Noelle did physical training. As Fred was doing it, he had Thor do lightning forging for his body, which can now be done for 3 hours a day.
The physical training ended quickly, as Fred and Noelle took another break before continuing to train their magic while waiting.
After about 30 minutes, Acier has come and is watching them train. As Fred is currently working on using Holy Magic to create Angel wings and takes 3 minutes to make them.
Another 20 minutes have passed and Fred takes a minute to make the wings, and Noelle has been able to create the most dense and detailed water ball she can currently make in 10 seconds.
Acier walked up to Fred and Noelle, and started to point them out.
Acier: "Fred, Noelle, if you want to have better control of your mana and magic, you should try and use the least amount of mana and create an extremely delicate object, making it as detailed as possible. You will do this for a year or until I think that you have met my requirements.
That is the 1st stage that I have prepared for you both, me the 2nd stage is to use most of your mana to create an extremely big but still delicate object, making it as detailed as possible. You will also do this for a year or until I think that you have met my requirements.
The 3rd stage that I have prepared for you both is that you will be able to make at least 100 of extremely small and delicate objects at once, making them all as detailed as possible. The 4th stage that I have prepared for you is that you will also have to move all the objects of the 3rd stage extremely steadily, stably, and fast without them so much as grazing each other.
The 5th stage is that you will have to create at least 100 animals at once, making them as realistic, detailed and with at least 10 different types of animals. The 6th and final stage is that you will have to make all the animals move realistically, being stable, steady, and fast, without even grazing each other."
Fred: "Thank you Aunt Acier. We will do as you say."
Noelle: "Thank you mom."
After they thanked Acier, they began to train again.
Time passed quickly and it became the next day. Fred and Noelle are beginning to train again, but this time they are accompanied by Mimosa.
Fred: "Mimosa, Noelle, just follow your own pace, we've got 9 years until we get our Grimoires, so we don't have to rush."
Noelle, Mimosa: "We will."
******
Time has passed and Fred is currently 10 years old, and has just completed the training Acier has prepared for him. Noelle and Mimosa are currently on the 6th stage of the training and each have the mana control of a 3rd class Senior Magic Knight, with Fred having the mana control of a 1st class Senior Magic Knight.
At this time, Fred is talking with Acier about the next stage of his training.
Fred: "Aunt Acier, what is the next stage of my training? Can you suggest what I can do next to get stronger please?"
Acier: "Well I have 2 more stages of training that I will only allow you to start when you have the strength of at least a 5th class Senior Magic Knight. The 1st stage is that you go to the Ultime Volcano, which is a Grand Magic Region, and get to the top, where a hot spring will appear at night.
After you have completed this, you should be able to have the bare minimum mana control of a Magic Knight Captain. The 2nd stage of the training is to then go into the underground of the volcano, and reach the underground hot springs. After you have completed this stage of training you should have the mana control of most captains.
If you don't know what to do after this, you can go adventuring to other Grand Magic Regions, which when you conquer them all you should have the strength required to become a Magic Knight Vice-Captain. There is also a possibility that you can learn how to use Mana Zone.
Another option is continuing to use magic spells that has a low mana consumption repeatedly, which will improve your mana output, which will strengthen your spells by requiring less mana to use the spell but still having the spell be more powerful.
If you have completed the 1st option and do the 2nd option for a while and extremely often, you should be able to have the bare minimum strength required to become a Magic Knight Captain, even without a Grimoire."
Fred: "Okay. I will train until you will let me go to the Ultime Volcano."
After they talked for a while longer, Fred went to train.
Fred began with trying to create equipment with various purposes. He began by trying to make a sword.
Fred used his Holy Magic to form a basic form of a sword. He then condensed it as much as possible, before making it sharp, and adding finer details. Fred then began to attempt to put his will into his magic, like Vulcan and Thor have been teaching him. It took Fred a day to manage to put his will of purification into the sword, making the sword be able to purify different types of magic, and also makes it do more damage to monsters and devils.
After a week, Fred has completed the learning of this spell, being able to use it instantly, with it being extremely stable.
Fred then began to make a shield, doing the same process that he did with the sword. This time though, Fred put the will of protection into the shield, making it able to bear damage and injuries that Fred or those he cares about take instead of them.
It took another week for Fred to complete the learning of the spell, being able to use it instantly, with it being extremely stable.
Fred then began to make wings, making them detailed, dense, and being able to fly extremely fast and stable. Fred put the will of swift into them, making them faster than using brooms, and also much more mobile.
It took a month for Fred to complete the learning of the spell, being able to use it instantly, and with it being extremely stable.
Fred then began to make Armor, making them extremely mobile, dense, and adding fine details. Fred then put the will of purification and guarding into it, making the armor able to heal minor injuries by itself, preventing moderate strength curses, poison, and ailments working on him, dispelling the curses, detoxifying the poison, and purifying the ailments, while greatly increasing the defence of the armor, and also greatly buffering the impacts received when wearing the armor.
It took Fred a month to complete the learning of this spell, being able to use it instantly and with it being extremely stable.
Fred then began to try and learn some healing spells, but only after updating his sword and shield magic, adding the will of judgement and the will of guarding respectively into them as well. This took a month to complete the learning, being able to cast it instantly again.
The will of judgement allowed the sword to become stronger when using it against those that Fred considers to be an enemy, with wounds dealt with it being extremely hard to heal, and continue to bleed. It also lets the sword much more effective against devils and those that Fred hates.
Fred worked on two healing spells, one for healing, and one for purifying. It took him 2 months to complete learning them, able to use them instantly, with the purifying magic being able to purify all moderate strength poisons, curses, and ailments, and the healing magic able to heal all moderate and medium sized injuries.
Fred then worked on a binding spell, which he put the will of suppressing, and the will of binding into it. Learning this spell took him a month to learn, being able to use it instantly.
The will of suppressing makes those that are bound by the binding spell, unable to use most of their strength, and the will of binding makes the spell much harder to break free from.
Putting will into mana and magic is the difference between a strong magic knight and a regular magic knight. It is also the reason for the big difference of the effects of spells between people that put will into their mana and magic and those that don't. (eg. Jack from green praying mantis puts the intense will of cutting into the ordinary magic, allowing him to become a Magic Knight Squad Captain even with Slash Magic)
