Shorka Kaspara? That is the name of the founder of the Kaspara family, in the novel Rara often mentions his name but somehow hearing his name directly spoken by the Kaspara family gives me goosebumps.
"Shorka Kaspara? Well you talk about that person a lot"
"Yes because I am the only person from this family who has access to read the stories and magic spells she uses"
"Full of secrecy, a hallmark of the Kaspara family"
Leon and Dad talked about Shorka Kaspara. I already knew a little about Shorka Kaspara, because in the novel Rara had traveled to uncover the story of the hero. But, it would be very suspicious if I kept quiet.
"Anuu, who is Shorka Kaspara anyway?"
They both directed their eyes at me. In a mocking tone Leon said
"She doesn't know who Shorka is? What a shame, is this what you teach your son?"
Father looked sarcastically at me I felt panic when I saw his terrible eyes, then he responded to leon's words calmly
"Well, I told you he can't read. So he can't read the Kaspara family history."
"Hmph"
Thankfully Dad was on my side, apparently being a Dyslexic isn't that bad. Amidst the silence Rara said.
"Since he's asking, shouldn't you tell him about Mr. Shorka's greatness, Father?"
"Well, listen carefully this is a little story of the greatness of Shorka Kaspara".

In the past, the emperors of each kingdom looked for strong warriors to fight the guardian spirits of the territory they wanted to occupy. The Fritz Kingdom, where the Kaspara Family lived, was founded by a king of great wisdom named Rama.
Rama gathered the most talented people he knew to negotiate with the spirit in the Fritz region. The purpose of the negotiation was so that the spirit would let Rama rule in his territory. But in the middle of the journey, Rama and his entourage of 5 people were stopped by a young man
"You seem to be carrying a lot of food, give it to me and I'll let you".
"Don't be impudent you bastard"
One of the annoyed member of group was about to attack Shorka, but Rama stopped him. This made Shorka interested in Rama, with a smile he said
"If I kill you will I become rich?"
One of Rama's entourage came forward to attack Shorka with his sword. But Shorka managed to parry the attack using his magic stick.The man said to Shorka
"Your words were presumptuous, you bum."
"Heeehhh, then what are you going to do"
"Of course I'll teach you a lesson"
The fight between Shorka and Rama's entourage was fierce, but when the entourage advanced one by one Shorka easily defeat them. Conditions could balanced when all of them except Rama advanced simultaneously.
With his extraordinary ability Shoka was able to attract Rama's attention, in the middle of the fight an arrow shot towards them. A very powerful attack that can even penetrate the Earth barrier made by Shorka.
The origin of the arrow was Rama, she did it because she wanted to break up their fight. Rama walked up to Shorka
"That's enough, I don't want anyone to get hurt before we meet the spirits"
Shorka was speechless because of the arrow that Rama had just shot. He had never seen such an attack before, without a doubt Shorka assumed that the human in front of him was on a different level to humans in general.
"I'm building a kingdom around here, for that I'm gathering great people who will accompany me to meet the spirit here"
"Hah! Are you going to invite me? You know it's not that easy"
"I promised all my entourage a swath of territory and a noble name for themselves. That means you'll get what you deserve."
"What if I refuse?"
"You'll miss out on a great opportunity to become a noble and escape your trashy life."
Shorka just laughed and left with a sudden fog. Everyone was shocked by what they had just witnessed.
After it got dark, Rama decided to rest. While talking that night, they talked endlessly about Shorka's power. They said that no mage could equal or approach Shorka's level.
Morning came and how surprised they were by the presence of a human being in front of them. That person was Shorka, he decided to join. The joining of Shorka greatly helped them in defeating monsters and beasts that blocked them on their way to the spirit.
Arriving at the location of the spirit Rama entered to negotiate, but the Spirit wanted to test the strength of Rama and his comrades including Shorka. Their fight was very fierce and long, in the fight Shorka saw Rama moving very quickly to find the best position to attack.
After three days the Spirit agreed to Rama's wish to create a kingdom here. After the battle, the Fritz Kingdom was established and Rama became the first King there. Shorka was rewarded with a noble mark and a large land.
After the inauguration Shorka said to Rama
"During the battle against Spirit you moved very quickly. What were you doing?"
"Hahaha, I was just moving according to my instincts. But since you're an amazing mage I'm sure you can create magic similar to my technique"
Shorka laughed along with Rama. After that day Shorka tried hard to create magic that was exactly the same as Rama's technique.
He repeatedly failed, starting from upside down, too fast and so on. But after three months of failure Shorka managed to perfect the magic.
Shorka showed off his magic to Rama and his friends. They all congratulated Shorka for perfecting his magic, and a small party was held to celebrate.

"So that's the story of Shorka's Blitz magic spell"
I silently listened to the story from my father carefully, shortly after finishing the story he asked again.
"Now tell me the truth, how did you know the technique?"
Father gave off a very strong intimidating aura towards me. It made me tremble and petrified, but I had to dare to answer the question or I would be finished off.
"I-I don't know either, Your Highness."
"What did you say?"
The intimidating aura from my father is getting stronger, I didn't expect him to bring out this much mana for the interrogation.
"I was just focusing on avoiding the attack, I didn't realize I could do that"
"...."
Soon my father stopped the mana aura. He sat back down and said
"The dagger you are carrying is the dagger King Rama gave to Lord Shorka..."
I was very surprised by this statement, the dagger I was using was a gift from the first King of the kingdom Fritz Rama.
"...He gave the dagger to Lord Shorka to protect him during close combat."
After a long interrogation, my father asked me to go back to my room, but Rose didn't leave and was still asked to be there. When I wasn't there Leon said
"Did you put that horrible thing on her?"
"Well I did just in case she was lying, but it didn't react which means she wasn't lying at all."
"AARGGHH just the thought of it being there makes me cringe"
My father's gaze was now fixed on Rose
"So Rose what is going on with my son?"
Rose's gaze became very serious not cheerful as usual.
