My eyes open. Slowly the dim light hit my irises. I feel the warmth of a bed. I open my eyes more to see the large decorated room.
The white and gold colour gave it a majestic look.
" I see you are awake harken." I glance to see Lyra stone seated on a couch by the window. She looked worn out and in patches too.
"You really are a miracle. It only took just a day for you to wake up. Normally it will take a sacred tier or Saint tier a month after what we have just passed through. "
"You are a Saint tier mage, yet you are awake!
"I am like you in a way. I told you. And I did not pass out. I already have experience and adequate gear to face them."
"You could have lend a sword or something to me. I protested my voice hoarse and faint.
"I can't hear you Harken."
" Stop calling me that! I yelled back
Lyra chuckled. Displaying her dimples and her beautiful green eyes. You are a hark3n and I have never heard of harkens hating the name . Your .....A name that takes you no where is not a name. Everyone in school hates me because of my name. It is more of a burden than a name.
Lyra's smile is long gone. Her tone replaced with all seriousness. "You speak ignorantly, if you do not know who you are . How do you intend to become great..
I do not want to be great!
She gets up her eyes dark like the time in the dungeon when she was about to attack the wolves. A terrifying shade of purple ooze out of her. I feel my nostrils thick with qn unnatural dust that emanates.
She stomps out of the room. Into the hall way. I hear her both still as it slowly fad3s into the distance I sigh and relax.
Only for my stomach to grumble loudly. I move my hands and th3m my body. Slowly I t4i3d to get out of bed. I was famished and there was food by the bed side. Bird meat qnd that of beasts I could tell. There was no way I was going to be able to finish this I thought to myself.
After an hour of constant chewing wnd swallowing. The huge chunks of meat were reduced to bones.
I wanted more. This was the first time I have eaten so much food and still craved for more.
The conversation between I and Lyra played in my head and the more I thought about it. B the more angrier I got and curious too.
I was angry because she told me I did not know who I was. I was curious because her words felt right and sparked alot of questions which I had no answers to.
My mother was in no position to explain my father's origin to me . Neither of mybpwr3nts have any living relative to go to for help or answers.
By noon lyra returned. "I spoke to the school informing them of your condition before bringing you here to the house.
I presume you you feel more better now. The stone family healer took good care of you before leaving she assured me you don't need any more medical attention.
I have made arrangements for your return back to school. Here she said bringing out purple cores from her storage link. These belong to the alphas You killed and then she handed me ten red cored. This belong to the pack members.
Don't ingest them you will not be able to handle more than two. No human has ever. You need weapons. Sell the lower grade cores and give the purple cores to skill master to make weapons for you.
I don't know any skill master.
You will have to find one then. Skill masters can tell f4om your build what kind of weapon will suit you. And after you explain your fighting style they will craft something to your taste.
I stash the cores in my storage space. And thank Lyra for her hospitality even though she turned her face and refused to look at me. She was still mad at me for speaking about my self negatively.
Lyra walked away without a word. I left the stone mansion too in a cab she got for me. My fair was already paid.
I was dropped in front of the school gate. After identifying myself to the gaurds at the gate . Went to my dorm. My room was at the extreme end of the Dormitory.
The loud silence greeted me as I opened the door. I fell on my bed to take another nap. Only to wake up early toyy
next day.
It was still hours before classes would start. So I decided to sit up and practice my elements just as ly4a thought me.
then
It was going smoothly until my mind drifted to our conversation from earlier and i could no longer concentrate.
I stood and changed into sporting gear which was provided for the school by for every student.
The walk to the training center was long and the silence was beautiful until two familiar faces approach .
They had two straps on thier sport gear to show which year they belonged to.
You have the audacity to fracture my brother the blond guy who Iooked like bron said his eyes shooting daggers as his jaw clenched.
Let's show him the true colour of strength bullies deserve a taste of thier own medicine. His eyes narrow to my name tag on the sport gear.
Harken. The nobody that everyone is afraid would give us a bad name. Well today is your lucky day.
After today you will be in the hospital for the rest of your training here at karydorg. The school will issue you a pass certification to appease your parents and everyone will forget about you.
I am doing you a favour. Be grateful let's enter arena five and finish this.
