What is it to be a sage? This question was running through my head suddenly my readings come back to me as if the book was in front of me. The title of sage is attributed to any person who can use more than 3 elements of the 7 fundamental elements (earth, fire, water, ait, light, darkness and metal). The greatest sage Merlin that our world Eldora had known mastered only 5 of the elements. The title of sage has always been attributed to mages, no swordsman has exceeded the mastery of more than two elements.
Me, one without affinity with a mana reservoir worthy of a sage, I was already an anomaly, but in the eyes of General Carbenza, I became an interesting anomaly that she was going to decode. She gave me a map of the academy and gave me an appointment tomorrow at 7 a.m. in her office. The academic year was only 2 weeks away and my freshman dorms were empty. I looked around at the other 50 beds wondering how my mates would be and with that thought I fell asleep.
A shrill noise roused me from sleep, an old reflex of a soldier, I had put myself in the position of a military salute and there a tall guy of 2.5 meters was watching me with a devilish smile.
- You are the cadet Luster
- Yes sir, I'm screaming
- There is no sir here asshole, my name is lieutenant Buffalo. I am tasked by the general to get you on your feet and by practice see how to help you tap into your mana. I know you're going to tell me you don't have elemental affinity, but it's not necessary for certain levels of use. He saw my startled look, then continued his explanation, dragging me squarely behind him. For those who have a dangerous job like soldier, adventurers and others we quickly understood that we could breathe our mana into the objects making them harder more sharp but after a certain amount of time the big heads understood that it was not Influence by the mana affinity of the user, it was enough that this person had mana. We had meanwhile arrived in a training room. Well it's room 12 I reserved it for you until the opening. You will live there and train there until you succeed or die. The smile I saw on that behemoth's face didn't give me time to doubt his words. In a timid voice I asked the lieutenant
- In general during the baptism our mana channels are initialized according to certain scholars. Having received nothing, I doubt I will have any.
- Yes, it's a fact, that's why we're going to force your body to use the mana it keeps inside.
- How??
-Simple by pushing you to exceed the physical capacities of your body. The mana will do everything to keep you alive and my role will be to try to kill you.
Damn this guy is a devil...
