'' good to see you three again, my name is luna de mistia i am the elder princess of mistia kingdom, pleasure to meet you

''i am roza de mistia, i am the only prince of mistia, nice to meet you, by the way your name?

''?...Rein, its Rein....

roza asked rein by the kings order which made roza also interested at rein, at first glance he already know Reins innocent behavior which made roza felt relief

''mm, right rein my father wanted to talk to you

''his majesty?

''yes, so you three will get separated for a while, now lets go

''uh, yes

Roza took rein first, leaving others behind, Luna decided to talk

''mmm, not roza task is done shall we go?

the princess was emitting a Gorgeous presence with her shining purple hair and beautiful dress that made claude and Gen stunned, however Gen does not know how to socialize with pretty woman henceforth claude did the talking 

''we are pleasured to accompany you, princess luna

''good, i can see that your a spiritual arts user claude, however it looks like you cant quite see and control it

claude felt a spark of interest and knowledge, as his expression tells he wanted more of this topic, 

''if you forgive my rudeness, will you tell me about it, princess?

''well, of course, however lets play a game, are you up to it?

claude felt temptation for knowledge however his wary-ness and curiosity of the princess aim remained strong 

''what kind of game exactly, and may i know the penalty if i lose?

''its a game of wits, we will play a debate, if you win, i will teach you and if i lose, you be my servant

claude suddenly felt full of confidence, as a top schooler and an achiever he always participated any debate and wins all of them therefore he is very confident

''princes luna, i will accept the challenge

''then first lets move somewhere

the princess took claude to another room leaving Gen alone, therefore gen thought he will make a stroll at the palace for the mean time, on the other side Rein arrived with the prince to the king's training room

''where here, my father is waiting to you

''uh, yes

they opened the door and saw the room with five of elite knights sparring with the king, the whole atmosphere of the room was very intense with the sound of clashing sword and intense battle

''ohh, you arrived

''yes father, as you requested i brought Rein with me

''good

the battle ended with the face of exhausted elite knights while the king only is sweaty

''now, Rein, will you try to have a battle against my son?

''ehh? you mean prince roza?

''yes who else, now will you start.

''yes father, sir Rein lets have a good fight

both of them leads to the hard ground stone ring, with the condition who ever gives up loses and who cannot stand anymore loses

''both of you, are you ready!?

''yes!

at the moment the battle starts, the prince already in front of Rein with his sword that was about to slash from above. rein reacted a little late, with his cleaver sword he blocked the sword of the prince and felt the strength of the prince

''...*he's fast and strong and has more experience

the prince backed off as he fused his mana affinity to his sword, the sword was enveloped with fire, and casted his magic ''create stone golem'' that is harder, stronger and larger than regular humans

''...*rein, he's kinda strong, he blocked the mistia sword technique, however will he survive this

the prince rushed through rein with his next attack from the left side of the opponent, Rein blocked the attack on his right however he cannot block the upcoming attack from the golem therefore he tried to back off however the prince wont leave him occupying his sword, in seconds the golem attack have arrived at Rein, 

''...*what will i do, if this keeps on i will lose,....better try this than nothing

Rein focused his energy to his right arm and fist

•Life arts skill ''forced fist Unlocked( force fist, gather the energy in your arm and fight to create a strong punches )

rein's right fist was covered with bluish energy therefore he holds the sword with his left hand to block roza and use his right fist to stop the golems attack, 

the golem punches are headed tp rein as rein also counter attack the golem with his fist, their punches clashed creating an impact the golems fist got destroyed, however rein fist got numb

the prince backed off making a shocked impression, as the thought came to his mind that what rein used was not Magic nor Spirit but a power from fairytales, at the same time the king began to smile

''i will get serious, prepare yourself Rein

Roza casted his magic ''root bind'' which the root was created with his magical energy and casted ''lightning bolt'' 

the roots bind Rein which made him unable to move and faced the lightning attack head on, Rein took the electrical damage while the prince casted his next attack

''complex magic lava cannon plus catapult magic''

the catapult attack got covered with lava which made it turn into a meteor attack headed to Rein, therefore rein made his last attack by using force blast,

the meteor attack and force attack collide and exploded with a huge impact the king himself stopped the fight

''alright kids that is enough,

for a few moments Rein wakes up seeing the prince and king taking care of him

''ouch, ,my body is numb

''ohh, your awake

''well, that's because to took my attack

''your majesty may i know what's the fight is all about?

Rein asked out of curiosity he also got reminded of how little he can do in a fight and how weak he is

''it because of your power

''my power, what of it?

''you do not use magic nor spirits but another energy which is recorded from history

''yes my father is right, i only know about it because to its myth and legends but it is really is similar to the description

Rein is shocked at what he heard as he was using some power that will catch the attention of the world 

''we don't mean any harm, Rein we just wanted some of your knowledge

''does anybody was able to use it?

''no for a century, however after seeing it, it might existed to other continents or around the world or being keep hidden to the world or it might actually became a legend its now a secret that we do not know

after listening rein asked to the king 

''what would you do with this power? your majesty

and so the king answered with a straight face and a serious tone

''i will build the most peaceful country with my power

Rein was just an innocent kid therefore he agreed to tell them his information about life force arts

''the life force arts is an specialty that uses one's life energy 

''specialty? and the first place how are you able to use it?

Rein was not careful enough to hide some things which made the king inquisitive on Rein, therefore rein thought that he might just say the whole story or keep hiding it, however Rein thought about saying this to the king to earn help for their mission
