"That was close," Kyla said as he rolled on the floor, he picked up sand as he threw it at the face of the monkey blinding it, he took out an old knife from his leather cross bag attacking the monkey with it but instead the knife broke as the beast attacked blindly landing a slap on Kyla's face which sent him crashing to the ground.
Kyla felt his head spinning, as he felt a sharp heavy pain on his head, blood rolled down his nose causing him to cough, "I knew it, one attack from this thing is enough to send me to my grave, maybe leaving the house was a mistake, no need for regrets now." Kyla said coughing as his vision got blurry.
He looked at the right side after much struggle to bend his neck, he looked at his right as he saw a purple and red like rose slightly close to him.
"This must be it, the flower, it's so beautiful." Kyla said struggling to pick the flower, he managed to take it as he held it tight without destroying it, he placed it close to his heart. Kyla could now here the growls of the beast getting nearer, the petals of the flower started to fly off one by one, but just at the split second of death, a woman with long scarlet hair reaching her legs, wearing a fancy white and silver tight short gown, with a long silver Thigh-high socks, and white shoes.
All Kyla could see was her long scarlet hair that was billowing in the wind. "Don't worry everything will be alright boy." A feminine voice sounded softly with a soothing tone as flashes of light could be seen revealing silver ice which tore through the monkey like hot knife cutting through butter.
"Immortal magic, internal ice shards." The voice said as blood could be seen dropping like rain before Kyla passed out.
**********
Kyla opened his eyes as he saw a blurry image of a girl with long scarlet hair. Just as he opened his eyes, he heard her soothing voice. "You're awake don't, stress yourself."
"Who are you." Kyla asked
"I'm scarlet your Monarch and you are my Disciple."The girl(scarlet) said causing Kyla to be confused he managed to stand up sitting on a log of wood close to him.
"what do you mean by Monarch and Disciple?" Kyla asked scarlet who the let out a sigh, "Stretch out your right hand." scarlet ordered as kyla hesitantly stretched out his right hand. "Then what?" Kyla asked. "Look into my eyes and stare at the bottomless abyss in which you now dwell in." scarlet said as kyla stared into her eyes all he could see was a void with scarlet red mist moving at a high speed, before seeing himself at the very depth of the void, he held his chest as he felt a sharp pain on it.
"Now stretch out your hand again." Scarlet said as kyla stretched his right hand toward scarlet, just the right at the back of his palm a scarlet colored strange symbol appeared brimming with light. "This is the symbol of my monarchy, the symbol of greed, it's now in you as well." Scarlet said showing Kyla a duplicate symbol on her right hand before it disappeared.
"This, it has similar energy with the Origin, could this be the new Superbia." Kyla thought to him self. "You look confused, it'll be hard to teach you, judging from your expression you're not a spirit user an also have no knowledge of magic, but it's also strange that I sense great talent from you." Scarlet said standing up before turning around.
""What do you mean, spirit user?" Kyla asked
