I am Rayford, I am 2 years old and my parents' names are Clara who is my mother and Eric who is my father. It seems that my parents are taking me outside, "I can't wait!" is what I screamed in my mind since I haven't seen the outside world yet. After a couple of seconds of my parents walking to get to the door, they opened the door slowly, "I see, they're trying to surprise me." is what I said in my mind, and then when they opened it… I got very fascinated by the scenery outside, it was full of flowers and grass, a relaxing fresh air, a bright sun and villagers! The scenery was very beautiful. I got very fascinated by the view that 5 minutes had passed.
A person was coming towards us waving, I guess he's our neighbor or maybe not.
"Hey! Long time no see, Clara and Eric!" said ???.
"long time no see, Flint." said Clara, my mother.
"So what are you doing here?" said Eric, my father.
I see, so they're old friends, but my father doesn't look so happy, more like he's upset.
"Oh nothing' just heard that you guys got a kid and came to congratulate you." said Flint.
"And? I've known you for a long time so I'm sure that you came here for something else." said Eric, my father.
"So I got busted, huh… Just kidding, I know that I'm gonna get busted so I'll just get straight to the point, I just came to warn you that in the next 8 years something horrible will happen in this village." said Flint.
"What do you mean by that? Hey Flint!" said Eric, my father.
"Bye now!" said Flint.
"Do you think he's kidding?" said Eric, my father.
"I don't know, but all the things that he predicted came true, so let's just prepare for the next 8 years." said Clara, my mother.
"I guess there's no point in worrying now, since it's the next 8 years so we have a lot of time." said Eric, my father.
In the incoming 8 years something bad will happen, huh… I'll be 10 years old by then, but what does he mean by "something bad", are there going to be monsters or demons attacking? maybe my father's right, there's no point in worrying for now since we still have a lot of time.
2 years have passed…
I'm now 4 years old and I can finally read! How can I read you ask? Well my mother keeps on reading the same story everyday to me so I eventually memorized the words that my mother keeps on reading, what was my mother reading to me? well it's just like when you're watching a fantasy anime, they will tell a story about a certain hero, well I'll just tell the story.
"A long time ago, which was 1367 years ago, there was a hero named Rayford. He was the strongest man in the world that can kill one of the strongest monsters in just 1 slash of his sword, he was called The undefeatable hero since he was never beaten even once and his sword called Infinity Saber. The hero and his sword faught together to kill all the strongest monsters so that it would bring peace to the world and he did kill them but… they kept on reviving and reviving that the hero kept on swinging his sword for 8 years and eventually perished because of fatigue, but when the hero died the 4 strongest monsters got sealed because the hero have an ability that will seal the strongest monsters and that is how the hero became the strongest because never once was he ever got beaten, he only died because of fatigue, there was no people who hated him nor was he called weak because he didn't completely killed the monsters because the people knew that the hero kept on fighting until his last breath for the sake of the world."
That was the story that my mother keeps on saying and the story is very cool that I never get bored with it, no not just me but everyone even though they keep on hearing it, they never get bored with it… Is what I heard but I believe it since I'm from another world and I never get tired of hearing it, so anyways let's read the book that I once tried to read.
Rayford quickly rushed to the room where there are books and searched for the book that he could read a few years ago.
There it is, I found it! now let's open the book and read it to research the world.
After a few hours of reading, Rayford finally finished the book.
These are the important things that I have learned so far.
So apparently this world is called INFINITE, it is a world full of magic, weapons and monsters but the book doesn't have any information or descriptions of the magic, weapons and monsters, it was just a story book about the world, strong people and kingdom. We are apparently in a kingdom called Arvonia.
The kingdom of Arvonia have 8 of the most important people in the kingdom called "The 8 treasured champions" the "swordmaster" King Arnold Archavess Arvonia,the "dual swords empress" queen Twix Charlatan Arvonia ,the "war maniac" knight commander Gram, the "all-knowing sorceress" mage commander Shannon, the "shadow assassin" Crime, the "immortal taoist" teacher Angelique, the "predictor" Flint, and lastly the "dead eyes disaster" Arkvon. And the world's current strongest people in the world of INFINITE, they are called "THE 6 GUARDIANS OF INFINITE", their names are the "blade god" human Vince, the "mythical weapon maker" dwarf Rome, the "one shot" elf Elvish, the "beast god" beastman Roger, the "SSS+ rank adventurer" Clive, the "Speed God" Athena. Now I'll introduce you to the current world's strongest monsters called "4 CHAOS BRINGERS" the "demon god" Archavon, the "Catastrophe dragon" Denver, the "1 vs billions" Domino, and the "Drainer" Ruiz.
I never thought that the guy who came to us 2 years ago was one of the most important people in the kingdom, so that's why my father was surprised and upset when he saw him since he knew that the Flint guy would make a prediction.
After I read the book, I tried reaching for the other books on the book shelf but I couldn't get one. I tried pulling as hard as I could but still couldn't and the other books were out of my reach, but I know what I can do! And that is asking my parents!
So… Let's try to ask my parents about magic!
While Rayford was looking for his parents, he saw his mother out the window doing magic to water the plants. He was so fascinated about the magic that he kept on staring at the water since what he saw was a very beautiful blue light shining out of his mother's hands and water came out of it.
Rayford's mother saw him looking at her hand and then walked towards Rayford.
"Ray, are you interested in magic?" Said Clara, my mother with a smile.
"(nods)" replied Rayford.
"Then I'll demonstrate how magic works, my affinity for magic is water by the way." Said Clara, my mother.
I closely looked at her and her hands on how magic works.
My mother then performed a chant and chanted these words "O' our God, please give me the power to use your holy powers of water and answer my calls to wield them, water creation!". Then after the chant was done, her hands began to glow a bluish light color then water came out of her hand.
"Wow! So that's how you use magic… But is it possible to do chantless magic?" I said with a curious looking face.
"Good question, well you can but the magic power will be weak since the magic of this world is created by the God, so you need to chant or pray to make your magic at normal power." Replied Clara, my mother.
"Is there a way to make your magic stronger?" I said.
"Unfortunately no, but if your mana is a lot then maybe it will be stronger." Replied Clara, my mother.
"Ohhh I see, thank you mother." I replied with an excited face.
"I'm excited about what your affinity will be, Ray." Said Clara, my mother with a smile.
I see, so my mother's affinity is water, next let's try asking father.
Rayford then searched for his father in the basement and saw him sharpening a sword.
"What are you doing, father?" I asked with a curious look.
"Ohh, Ray. I'm sharpening my sword, so… You want a sword?" said Eric, my father with a smirk.
"I can have a sword!?" I replied looking excited.
"Ofcourse! but don't tell your mother, ok?" Replied Eric, my father.
"(nod, nod)" I replied.
"Ok then, it will take 3 months to finish your sword since I'll make your sword to be a good quality one." said Eric, my father.
Rayford then walked out of the basement and went to his room to try doing magic.
So let's try chanting water magic… What was the chant again… Oh I remember now, I think it was "O' our God, please give me the power to use your holy powers of water and answer my calls to wield them, water creation!"... nothing huh… Oh right, I think it's because I don't have water affinity, then I guess I'll have to wait for a couple of years to know what my affinity is or if something happened, maybe my power will come out like being excited or something just like in anime, manga, and games, where the characters activates their powers by some incidents. But I guess that won't happen huh, well I guess I have no choice but to wait… Wait a minute! I just forgot to ask my father what his magic is! Oh well, I'll wait for tomorrow.
