Chapter 3 - A child of misfortune

It's been three months already since I arrived at this world, In this three months I learn a lot about this world to be more correct about this continent that I'm on currently.

This continent name is crifhimoze named after one of the most powerful being ever lived on this planet and crifhimoze was born on this continent and ruled over for thousands of years.

That was in the past right now human race is the most powerful one in this continent there are total seven continents on this planet and numerous archipelago but one thing that stand out most is this planet is complete frozen.

All my life on earth I felt cold and now wretched fate bought me to world complete frozen.

This planet is called snodedliv.

Snodedliv as big way bigger than planet Earth, even continent crifhimoze is as big as planet Earth.

I look at my reflection in river water, smooth silky black hair, dark brown eyes, light-brown skin and average looking face not that much handsome but not ugly looking either unlike the people I'm currently living with here.

I'm still looked as I was on earth just a little bit more healthy..

There's scar on my left side stomach that I didn't had before this scar and wasn't the gift from the old man dagger either but by curved horn rabbit.

As funny as it sounds to other but I almost died that day, Just after arriving in this it wasn't even a week before I almost died by curved horn rabbit.

Curved horn rabbit are small fluffy and have damn cursed curve horny on their head that goes to tail.

"Hey, Claude Vadh come back in time, we have feast today don't forget that if you don't come back now you won't get anything like before to eat and even though your presence is not required as you are not one of us. I still have to remind you to come back leader ask me to tell you this."

"If you feel pity for us, you can jump into river and froze to death."

I know its Vladimir who's calling me out as rude as his words are so is that truth, this river water might look crystal clear but it's freezing. If someone weak like me jumped into the river I will be frozen to death right away.

In this three months I learn to speak their language and how to write it.

They were villagers but their king went mad and started killing citizens that's why lots people run away from the kingdom, they have been traveling for one year now in this Himsrote forest trying to be as far as possible from that kingdom.

Now they found perfect place to settle down after one year journey, we are currently in outskirts of forest, Himsrote forest is really big as Asia, Europe, Australia and Africa continent combine.

This world has magic, aura, curse and many things. Now, there are lots of things that I don't understand of this world but I'm definitely going to find out all of this.

"All the myths, All the glory, All the legends shall be mine"

"But this all could wait, I have to eat first."

As I came back to settlement everyone was gathered to have launch today as today's the day they will test new 10-year-old children future path and how powerful they be in the future.

All the dishes have been put on the table and in the square platform stood settlement leader or village leader with brown coat, white shirt and black pants and muffler around his neck.

Village chief Luther Cross is none other than that mid-age man who saved my life back than.

He's the strongest one in this settlement, everyone respect him not because he's the strongest one but because he's the wisest one, kind and helpful.

He looked after everyone in this settlement including me, despite many people doesn't like my presence here they still have to live with it as village chief allowed me to stay here.

"Everyone today's the day, where we gather here to see the future of our children. What they are, what be and what they will be."

"Now, what happens in future we all be together and united as we stand against all the odd we faced in the past, we will never bow down to cruel fate this world that forcing on everyone."

"After us, our next generation will lead everyone towards a bright future, our children are our future and everyone future and hope."

"Our children are the hope of this settlement and hope our life."

"Let's start the awaking ceremony of hope."

Everyone claps for village chief Luther Cross.

One by one every children around 10 to above lined up below platform.

Awaking ceremony always be held like this in this world only Royal, Noble and wealthy people done awaking ceremony in secret because they would rather not disclose their powers to anyone.

Magic circle is drawn on platform and put magic ord is floating in middle of circle in air.

"David Troy go to platform and hold the magic ord that's floating in air" said one of the elders in village whose tasks was to read names on list so no-one gets left out.

David stood on platform and magic circle light up with bright light and in orb one can see wind element magic glowing and wind element magic is of 4th rank.

Seeing David Troy has 4th rank wind element magic power his parents were delighted as their son can become powerful mage in future and as David is still 10 year old he will grow better in the future.

"Next, Susan Polgar go to platform and you have to hold magic ord" says elder.

Susan Polgar is 12 years old girl, she's orphan and village chief and elder doesn't talk much about how they find her.

Susan Polgar hold the magic ord but magic circle light up but ord doesn't show anything, that means only one thing, Susan doesn't have any magic or aura or talent for anything. She's usually work in kitchen to help out ladies.

If anyone beside her was on the platform right now they would be crying out loudly as being talentless is being the same dead weight to everyone.

After her next three kids had 4th rank magic and one had 3rd rank earth Aura

3rd rank earth Aura holder Chris was one of the elder grandsons.

Being third rank is like being one of the well-known figure in kingdom in the future.

3rd rank aura warrior are one of the fine Jem of any kingdom.

After that, everyone had 4th rank magic or aura

Last child had 5th rank healing magic

Even though everyone considered 5th rank just one of the lowest good for nothing but being healer is really rare.

That's why even though last boy only had 5th rank healing magic elders were pleased to take him as he was orphan child.

Having healer working for you isn't what everyone wants nowadays.

Seeing that every child awaking ceremony is completed, elder said, "Now, awaking ceremony has ended we will begin the feast".

Just as elders were walking towards their family to join them, village chief shout out, "There's still one child is left elder miz"

Elder miz look through list of children name that were supposed to take awaking ceremony today and there's no one left out.

"Chief Luther every children whose name was in list has completed their awaking ceremony."

Chief didn't say anything but look towards Claude Vadh.

Everyone knew at this rate someone Intensely must have wiped out his name from the list but he was already 15 year old without showing any talent any field.

For past three months Claude has worked few times with hunters only to carry their things around. While most of the time Claude Vadh work with tailors, he's well known as good tailor.

Even the green and yellow scarf that village chief wearing is made by him.

"Claude come up here on platform and hold the magic ord"

As Claude stood in middle of magic circle and hold magic ord. Magic circle light up with bright light and magic ord show water or ice like element can't tell much difference as it was really blurry and in the end it becomes like light blue thin threads of ice and water instead of showing complete element.

There's one more unspoken rank the 6th rank being 6th rank is being same as ordinary human.

Your talent doesn't even matter, you are considered as trash, completely useless ain't worthy of being meat shield in fight.

While 5th rank are good meat shield in everyone eyes.

Everyone look at Claude with contempt and ridicule in their eyes and he was already outsider as he doesn't belong to their people, it was only because of village chief his standing between them.

Some people even says his not even human but hybrid child between dark elf and humans.

A child of misfortune.
