"Did he just say Eldric?" A young man asked in disbelief.
"Am I hearing things?" Another young man rubbed his ears, wondering if something was wrong with his ears.
Many people were in disbelief but just as many people were furious.
"Absurd! How dare he steal his name?!"
"Just because he is lucky enough to be born with these abilities, he thinks he can disrespect the First Hero?!"
In an instant, the entire place was in commotion. There was not a single person in the Southern Continent who didn't know and respect that name as it was the name of the First Hero.
No one named their children Eldric as they all knew that the name came with a heavy burden. If someone took this name, it was disrespectful to the First Hero.
It was the same with Mist's name. In the entire Southern Continent, there was only one person called Mist. Those who were named Mist changed their own names, not wanting to attract any wrath.
