Chapter 1 - 1. The Beginning of the End

Good people know about both good and evil: bad people do not know about either..

_ C.S.Lewis _

I've always strongly believe that there are two sides to a person: good and evil, you decide who you choose to be. Well, I've always preferred the good side just like any other normal person would. Those who chose the latter must have undergone a series of emotional, physical stress to have made them not only considered, but be evil. I knew that I would never be the latter. Even though I lost both my parents at the age of three, I still vaguely remembered the time when they would play with me every day: my dad giving me a piggyback, mom tugging me to bed and singing me a lullaby. So many fun memories. They were the one who made me who I am today and I will never forget that.

Life seemed simple, normal until you say that magic exists... yeah that's right... Welcome to the Kingdom of Armeria where magic is the everyday life here..

This is a kingdom well known for its magicians. My dad was the most well famed magician in the Kingdom of Armeria. He was respected by everyone, not because of his insane power but because he was a kind, generous, loving person. My mom was one of the lesser :very rare people with no magic considering that this was the world of magic . My dad once told me how he caught a glimpse of her one day and thought that she was an angel. It was love at first sight for my dad. My mom, on the other hand, was an iced cold woman who would prefer to have nothing to do with men but when she met dad, her personality changed. She fell in love with dad because of his respect for women. He would always tell me how others feared and respected him but she was the only one who looked at him as a normal person who was as equal as all. My father's belief that a man must always respect a woman gained him my mom's love and that motto stayed with me forever and because of this motto which I hold dearly, I now have the most beautiful woman in the Armeria Magic's Academy( school) as my girlfriend.

My name's Kanzaki Hiyota, a 16 year old introverted boy with bangs that covered most of my face . I've never been a popular person and I've never expected anything exciting to happen in my life. I've always considered myself a side character that exists in the mangas. To be honest, I was surprised at myself on how I got Nagi Asaki, the most beautiful girl in school as my girlfriend and I was even more surprised when she was the one who asked me out to be my girlfriend. I mean, who wouldn't be, an introverted guy who does not speak to anyone, having a girlfriend which the entire school admired. She changed my life for the better, I believed. Because of her ,I enjoyed high school more now. I would often hesitate to come out of my house but now, I can't even wait to attend school . With Nagi as my girlfriend, I felt like I was the protagonist of some manga which I never would have imagined in a hundred years.

The school was a place for the privileged. Every student was a son or daughter of some high end family. I did not feel like I belonged here and I did not enjoy being here, but Nagi being here blew away all of those feelings and for the first time after having lost my parents, I found happiness again...

Nagi : ( A clear sky) Wow, the sky's so clear today. It's the perfect day to go on a date, don't you think Kanzaki?

Kanzaki : It is clear but we still have alchemist classes to attend to, Nagi... We shouldn't bunk classes.

Nagi : Hehhhh, you're such a bore Kanzaki. Why don't we both skip classes and do whatever we want today, just the two of us. I'll make a clone spell for the both of us, that way no one would notice.. what do you think?

Kanzaki : Umm, ok if you say so. (It's been a month since I've started dating Nagi Asaki and I still can't believe it. She's always treating me so nice and I feel like I've been blessed by the gods of love and I'm so grateful for that.)

Kanzaki : (in a shy voice) Nagi, I've always wanted to ask you this but what do you find so charming about me that you want to date me.

Nagi : Nothing (Kanzaki shocked) I'm just kidding Kanzaki....Well, I've always liked how you're so tall (6'1 ) and..... uhhh ( thinking) don't beat yourself so much Kanzaki... come on let's go now

Nagi Asaki, the girl I love... she's always been a popular girl. Being not only perfect in figure, and having an insane amount of magic power, she was also one of the prestige members of the student council .Every guy was in love with her. Her personality was daring. She came from a very high status family. There are two classes that exists in this high school: the middle class and the low class: the low class were students who has very low magic miasma in their body while the elite class where higher status student who has insane amount of magic miasma . Nagi was from the elite class and I was from the middle class . People of the elite class were greatly respected as they were believed to help change the world but I did not care at all about these classes. On the other hand, for students of the elite class, it was different. They considered the low class as impure but somehow Nagi did not consider me one. I was the only one who was not an impure to her and because of that I love her. But still, she was not so different from the other elite class students. She would treat the low class students as impure . Even after all that, I overlooked her personality because I love her too much to let go of her.

(Back to present) Nagi: So, where are we gonna go today, Kanzaki? I've always wanted to go to that newly open fashion mall.. let's go there..

Kanzaki : (shy response) ok Nagi, anything you want.

Nagi : Kanzaki, you're so obedient and that's another thing I like about you (smiles at Kanzaki who shyly looks away) ok let's go there.

On reaching there, Nagi shopped a lot.

Nagi: Kanzaki, (in a shy voice)Can you buy these for me(looks at another outfit) and these too?
KANZAKI: (in a shy voice)ok,whatever you want Nagi.
KANZAKI: (thinking)She sure shops a lot, though.. it doesn't matter .As long as she's happy I'm happy. (smiles warmly) I've decided I'm gonna tell her...
Like any low class student, I was also getting the same treatment as any low class student but as soon as Nagi came into my life, nobody bothered me and for the first time I experienced the same thing my dad experienced when he first met mom.The very moment, I knew that I was in love with her . I wanted to be with her and I did not want to keep any secrets from her.

KANZAKI : I will tell her who I am.....
