'Luminar Crystal' It's because of this crystal that humans can use Mana in the air.
I need Luminar Crystal to execute my plan.
Luminar Crystal is full life life-form energy. If you can absorb it you can break the limit of your potential that how it's wonderful it is.
But there backstab in this plan because it's full of Mana and Life Energy that the human body could not hold it.
And second thing is that after few hundred years ago after Luminar Crystal exploded 99% of crystals dissolved in the environment. Humans are only able to access 1% of the whole crystal.
But there is a way to absorb the crystal, it's because this Luminar Crystal is an artefact.
The only way to able to use it give a command.
And that Command- only one person knows, well who? Of course me.
As an author, I know most of the important things, I'm the one who created it after all.
We protagonist is also known but it's because of the system that I gave him, he happened to be there at the right time and the system gave him the command to use it.
Well if steal it from him it will be not a problem right...? After all, I gave him, an SSS+ rank potential. So there will be no problems right....?
Wait a minute I'm not stealing from him, from the beginning it was mine, so it's not his I'm taking what is mine that's all.
And for a fact, he has a system with him that will always be stronger than others.
So the first thing I will do tomorrow is go to 'that' location where one tiny piece of Luminar Crystal is.
All of my plans for tomorrow are set. Looking at my watch it is already 7:30. I have been about half an hour.
They will be at home by this time. There is nothing to do so I think about the afternoon.
I found myself sitting at the dinner table, the aroma of a home-cooked meal filling the air.
Suddenly the door opened and two people walked in. Well, these two are my mom and dad.
When I look at him, I see that he and I don't have the same faces. On the other hand, I got all of my looks from my mother's side.
My father, Caelum DarkHeart. He stands as a figure of strength and authority, a leader marked by his strategic brilliance and unwavering dedication. His tall stature commands attention, his presence exuding a mixture of gravitas and approachability. Jet-black hair, streaked with strands of silver, falls to his shoulders in a controlled cascade, a visual representation of the wisdom and experience he carries.
A cloak, clasped with an emblem of the DarkHeart guild, billows gently in the wind as he moves, an emblem of his position and his duty.
And he is an extra just like me. Well everyone is in this is extra.
My mother's warm smile and my father's furrowed brows told me that the incident hadn't gone unnoticed.
Their concern was palpable, their eyes watching me closely as if trying to discern the unspoken truth. I stabbed at my food, feeling the weight of their expectations and the unspoken questions pressing upon me.
"Lucas," my father finally spoke, his voice carrying a steady authority that was a hallmark of his leadership as the head of our guild."Your mother mentioned that you had quite an afternoon. Care to explain what happened?"
I glanced at my mother, her eyes reflecting a mixture of curiosity and concern.
I took a deep breath, my mind racing as I tried to find the right words. "It was... a nightmare, Father. Just a vivid and unsettling dream."
His brows furrowed further, his eyes narrowing slightly as if he could sense that there was more to the story. "A nightmare, you say?"
I nodded, a mask of calm composure that I hoped would conceal the turmoil beneath the surface. "Yes, just a nightmare."
My mother's gaze softened, a sigh escaping her lips as she reached across the table to rest her hand on mine. "Dreams can sometimes be unsettling, dear. You know we're here for you, right?"
I managed a small smile, grateful for their unwavering support even in the midst of the inexplicable. "I know, Mother."
The conversation shifted to safer topics, and soon the dinner was finished. As the table was cleared, my father handed me a card.
My heart skipped a beat as I saw the insignia of Nova Academy embossed on it. "In one week, you'll be attending Nova Academy," he said, his voice calm but carrying an undercurrent of significance.
I stared at the card in my hand.

______________________
a mixture of shock and excitement coursing through me.
Nova Academy was not only prestigious but also the very place where the protagonist I had written about was set to attend. The pieces of my two lives continued to interlock in ways that both bewildered and intrigued me.
"I... I didn't expect this," I managed to say, my voice tinged with a mixture of gratitude and uncertainty.
My father nodded, his gaze steady. "It's an opportunity, Lucas. An opportunity to grow, to learn, I hope you will do your best out there."
His words hit home, a surge of determination rising within me.
Clearing my throat, I met my father's eyes with newfound resolve. "Thank you, Father. I'll make the most of this opportunity."
A faint smile tugged at his lips. "I have no doubt you will, my son."
As the evening hours turned to night, my sister's soft snores filled the air, and a sense of tranquillity settled over our home. My parents retired to their room, and I found myself standing by the window, gazing at the moonlit landscape that stretched beyond.
The idyllic scenery, however, was a stark contrast to the currents of change swirling within me.
I will be closer to the protagonist I had written about.
***
The following morning, I awoke with a renewed sense of purpose. After breakfast, I found my father in his study, poring over maps and strategies as he often did I cleared my throat, catching his attention.
"Father," I began, "I was thinking... before I leave for Nova Academy, I should embark on a final training session. where I can hone my skills and gain a deeper understanding of my abilities."
He looked at me with a measured expression, his gaze assessing and contemplative. "The mountains can be treacherous, Lucas. You'll be on your own, facing challenges that will test your strength and resilience."
I met his gaze, my eyes unwavering. "I'm aware, Father. But I believe it's something I need to do before embarking on this new chapter."
'Well I need to find a Luminar crystal piece so I can be strong' he doesn't need to know that.
He regarded me for a moment before finally nodding, a hint of pride in his eyes. "Very well, Lucas. If that's what you feel is right, then go. But promise me you'll exercise caution."
I smiled, a mix of gratitude and determination coursing through me. "I promise, Father."
Saying that I left his study office, and tomorrow is the ft I leave for the Luminar crystal piece.
Time went by very fast, and before I knew it tomorrow came.
Today is the day of my departure, and as the sun began its ascent, I stood at the threshold of our home, my father and mother by my side.
My sister, Lilya, yawned as she clung to my mother's hand, her eyes wide with curiosity. "Where are you going, big brother ?"
I knelt, ruffling her golden curls affectionately. "I'm going on a journey, Lilya. A journey to become stronger, to learn new things."
She looked at me with a mixture of awe and innocence. "Can I come too?"
I chuckled, brushing a strand of her hair behind her ear. "Not this time, little one. But I promise I'll come back and tell you all about my adventures."
Her pout turned into a grin, and she gave me a tight hug. "Okay, big brother. Be safe."
Standing up, I turned to my parents. My mother's eyes were moist, and my father's expression held a mixture of pride and concern. I could feel their emotions intertwined with my own.
"Take care, Lucas," my mother whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.
My father clasped my shoulder, his grip firm. "Remember, son, that you carry the legacy of DarkHeart with you. Let it guide you."
With a final nod, I shouldered my pack and took a step forward, down the path that led away from home.
