Albert turns his back to his wife after they talk. The moment he turns his back to her, 1 drop of tears fell down onto his cheeks. He immediately wipes out. Afraid of watching a man cry in front of his woman. Sooner he goes to the door to leave, leaving his wife crying alone at the hallway.
------------------------------
Those were the last words of his father before the war erupted. Albert died protecting the people and the city from the invading forces. Year 778, Month of the Leo, the cities began waging wars at each other for the throne, many of the lords participate in order to rule the Kingdom. The unity of people in the Kingdom Of Valmir betrayed each other, thousands died fighting for the war defending it's rights and liberating. Pillaging the villages, raping, and enslaving. Disease spread all across the country and it's neighboring country. The corruption got worst, the hypocrite religion, and people began to rebel because of the high taxation. The people suffered from poverty.
Soon war erupts between neighboring countries, they declare war on the weakening Kingdom Of Valmir. Bringing an excuse for the pandemic, and taking advantage of the current situation. In just a months, after the defeat of the Kingdom of Valmir, a peace treaty was signed. A large proportion of territories were given to the neighboring countries and compensating huge amounts of gold for the war, the reason why their economy declined. This age was called The Age Of Darkness. At that time Karl's mother was pregnant with her second child. And till these days war still rages on between cities.

After i finished practicing my swordsmanship, i went to a nearby lake to drink water and take a little break. While i was sitting on the rock, i ask The Guide to show me my current status by checking how did i go improved so far, and after i check out, it was all average.
K: "more"
*Klang*
*Kling*
*Klang*
As i move my hands and body, the moment i swing my sword, the adrenaline flows into my body. I feel every time that my body, hands, and the sword became light. Sweats ran down into my body while i was practicing, i can hear my heartbeat responding as i breathe intensely. My speed and weight are becoming one as i move *klang*. I swing my sword down right to left up afterward left up to left down and swing it to the upper right onto that wooden dummy. I was able to practice well all alone, but it was not finished yet so i continued.
*huff* *huff* *huff*
K: "Yoshi, that was intense, i'll do my best to reach my skill as same as my father, but i wonder. What can a sword do if i have a guns and cannons?" *laughs devilish*
It's been 5 years since my father died during the war in the Battle of Frankfort where the battle take place. I was so sad especially for my mother, we couldn't live long together with him. He didn't even witness his own son and daughter growing together because he was always at the Capital. Father lead 5,000 thousand men containing pikemen, swordsmen, cavalries, and bowmen to liberate the City of Frankfort from the Empire Of Rusyan. Eventually, it was a huge devastating loss it was like an ambush. Rumors say that the Lord of Frankfort has been deceived so he chose to betray the liberating force of Valmiria.
I am now a 10-years-old boy living in the village of Isruhr. I was 7-years-old before i started practicing my swordsmanship on my own by following the instructions from the Guide. It was not as easy as you think especially, at that age. There was no tutor or a teacher. Everyday, only morning and night taking a break when eating and sleeping. At least, it was not as worst when working at the office.
K: "it's getting dark, i better go back home. I don't want my mother to be worried about me"
It's almost 7 years since i manage to control and to be able to use my Guide. It was hard controlling it, especially it doesn't recognize it's host yet. Yes, this was the unique skill that Everything bestowed me. I tried every method to unlock this blessing but it won't appear or talk. I accidentally said "Fรผhren" meaning guide, in a deutsch language, i just think of it. The way their language and those flags it almost make me believe that i was in alternative Germany or really? it took me 3 months to realize it, am i really that dumb.

After the conflict ended between neighboring countries and the death of the Lord of Bรผrwagen, our city has been invaded by the city lord from the south. It was after we found out that they were so many and it was marching to our city. We escaped immediately along with my mother, leaving Bรผrwagen City an open area. At first, my mother was against it, however, after our relatives told us, we followed obediently to protect me and my sister who's not been born yet. We now live in this little village. Thankfully the chief of the village accepted us after we explained our intention and purpose. Thanks to the village chief's kindness.
As time went on they gradually accepted us. At first they doubted us, they were hesitant to accept us when we arrived so suddenly that night. But after a few months, we also got along with the other villagers well.

My mother has already given birth to her second child and she's now a 7-year-old girl, her name is Vivianne Albrecht. Her hair is the same as my father's shimmering golden hair, her right eye is a color silver like a shining diamond reflecting in the light, and her left eyes are the same as my mother's ruby eyes. They were both beautiful but there's one question that i'm wondering, how did she even have different eyes? i asked my mom about her eyes but she has no idea what it was, it became a mystery to me. I asked my Guide about her right eye but the Guide wasn't able to give any information, he/she also doesn't know.

She is my only younger sister and i'm thankful that both of them are alive. It was thanks to a man named Barter for saving my mother's life from the assassination during the conflict. He immediately committed suicide before we could ask, we couldn't gather any information about the assassination. If they didn't survive the war, i'm afraid that i'll go mentally crazy, i don't know what to do.

After i went to my room before i take asleep, i asked my Guide first to explain to me when can i summon weapons or tools from my world. Then a big black transparent with a golden text appears in my sight floating in the air. It was shiny than a bar of gold. I once tried touching it, but i couldn't, it was like a hologram. I also tried to show it to my mother but she was confused at me, it seems i'm the only one who can see it.

It was one of the territories of the Kingdom of Valmir but after the war ended, it was given to the Kingdom Of Danian. After the war, that city has been untouched during the conflict between cities. Many people called it the "Freedom City" where no violence, slavery, and less corruption happens. The reason why it's a neutral city is because it's heavily protected by the Kingdom Of Danian, so many Lords of the Valmir Kingdom are afraid of invading it. Even if they unite, they will stand no chance to occupy it because of the advanced technology weaponry, and flying wyverns. We once tried to go there but they rejected us after we introduced ourselves. They were worried that they might be involved in the ongoing war between the south and our city. Later, i realized that it was also the reason between the two Kingdoms. They had just finished their war, they were worried especially the Kingdom Of Valmir if another conflict happens. They weren't ready to respond to another war yet after the defeat.
K: "Guide, what are the elements of magic in this world?"
I learned magic from my mother when i was 6-years-old, she taught me healing magic in Nature Element. She has been ordered by the Kingdom to help treat the wounded patients in the tent when the Danish-Valmirian War broke out and the Famous Battle Of Kalmera. Despite being pregnant, she was able to help treat the wounded patient. It was also the reason when my father died, she also became dedicated to the Kingdom. It was the year when my mother almost got killed by the assassination. My mother once called "The Saint Of Bรผrwagen" or "A Girl In A Lamp" because of her high level of nature elemental healing and she was always bringing a lamp along with her to provide light.

I keep asking till midnight, i ask many questions regarding about magic and this world but some of them are not available yet, lack of info. After i ran out of questions, I proceed to go to bed to sleep without eating, i'm not really that hungry though.
