As fallion decided to call it a day.
A hand suddenly reach to him.
Startled he found out it was the receptionist girl from mage society.
"Excuse me sir" calmly she notice fallion of her presence.
Fallion got startled due his just near death experience
The girl then continues "I'm sorry for startling you. But I think you will need a medical assistance?"
Fallion then look on his wounds. While none of them were hit on fatal area. It's still no secret he got beaten up all over.
"Yes please....." Said fallion calmly.
As the girl's patched fallion wound and try to ease his pain with her magic.
Fallion ask " do you see what happened?"
The girl reluctantly answer " uh...yes sir but forgive me for not helping you."
Fallion try to shrug it off " no...it's alright if something happened to other because of me "
The girl then smiles " Mr Noblanc was right you are truly kind hearted"
Fallion blushes for a moment.
After she finish patching fallion wounds they both saperated but before that fallion ask "do you by chance knows anything about those people?"
"I heard they comes from kashima region across the sea . A country of utakata if I weren't mistaken . However I heard the kashima's were plotting rebellion towards utakata kingdom "
Fallion then return to his mansion the servants shocked seeing their young lord full of wound
After telling what happened to all of his servants. Samhain suggest fallion to take Gaz'mirna a daemones servants who also the strongest servants in the mansion
While she herself can't speak. She was good at sign language and due being born as fighter class daemon. She is possessed Incredibles strength one that believe even rival Katherine sherwood who is a paladin Grand Master.
However fallion reject the idea. Knowing there's many holy pylon which will burn her. Additionally the problem is with an outside faction bringing a fighting force to the city would bring unnecessary attention.
He however agree to being additional protection.
Which one of human and elf servants will follows him from afar. In case fallion were attacked again.
In the evening fallion ask josul to gathers information about kashima's region conflict and investigate fordragon whereabouts
On the next day. Fallion goes back to mage society.
Jintaro already waiting in the class ready to give today's lecture.
As fallion sit. Jintaro couldn't help but notice about fallion wounds atleast the one in his face.
Jintaro began explains how incantation works.
"Today's lesson I will teach you how incantation of a spells works. We save for prayer or miracle's you could go ask the paladins or church faction for that."
As fallion sits
Jintaro continue
"Each of arcane spells depending on their difficulty require a unique combination of magic trigger which could be triggered by giving a magic pulse. Each magic pulse should create the right magic trigger which could easily be translated through your catalyst like grimoire , spells book. Or even scrolls simply by chanting."
Some of the students then ask
"Does it possible to not using incantation or catalyst to cast a spells?"
Jintaro then replied " yes. Catalyst and Incantation were created for efficiency and help the less experience mage to learn magic, in old times before unification march . Many of the mage required no catalyst. They memorize the type of pulse by creating a magic circle.
If you saw some high level mage . You could see a magic circle around them.
The magic circle also utilized for public service. Back then they will paint a magic circle in a wall nears any public good and commodity like tochs ,lamp even artillery.
Many were still used but many were replaced due how in ineffective they are if used constantly, and many criminals often triggered it "
After the class fallion meet Noblanc and share his experience
Noblanc then share his concern"this potion will works but definitely will be a side affects"
Fallion ask what is it
Noblanc said " the spells definitely could only be last that long if it's sustained by certain something. Which obviously it was your own mana"
Fallion then realize it was what make him feels unease because the spells leech his mana for so long
Noblanc said " this will unlock many blocked mana point within you. It would cause shock and quite pain....if you hesitate, I'll suggest either we wait until you learn curse breaking magic or waits others magic society member"
Fallion after not wanting this unease feeling anymore. Decided he will take the risk
After confirming he is ready for breaking the spells , Noblanc tells fallion to rest and skip class for tomorrow.
For it will require a full health condition for fallion.
As fallion leave the mage society he then rest at nearby restaurant where he saw a couple of nomadic people
Nomadic people are humanlike race except they have pale skins and longer arms and legs while their body proportions same with regular human
Nomadic people have strong magic resistance and mana adaptation, they live twice longer than human, and halves of the elves.
Nomadic people race are known to move from one place to another making international link between many continent. Their background allows their culture to learn many languages and making them as international market provider.
Almost every country and kingdom, will use the nomadic people for international trade. They are respected by every nation.
"Hmm I haven't seen nomadic people for a while " said fallion.
He then approach the nomadic people who greet him warmly.
"Is there anything I can help you sir" said one of the nomadic people.
Fallion ask about direction and claims he never been gone outside whiteford kingdom.
Fallion ask a possible route and contact in case he needs to go to kashima's region.
The nomadic people then discouraged fallion claims that a big conflict is rising in that area.
Aside from that cultist activity was massive in that region. Especially after some strange faction shows up in Qa'stur
Which drive many cultist out of there and reclaims Qa'stur for their own.
Fallion were then given a map by the nomadic people's with a price of course
Which shows many conflict area,cultist controlled area,safe and dangerous route.
As fallion return to mansion followed by his servants. He immediately go to his parents room.
Seeing the portrait of his parents.
Fallion then take the picture of his mother's.
"Mom I'm sorry if back then I made you worries, I know you love me and my brothers, but fordragon is right we have to follows our calling just like you once said, wheater you wish to see me free from this spells or not. I will do this because there's some feeling that I can't forsake. A vision if I can call it and yet it always blurred for me.
One thing I know fordragon definitely have it and never share it with me. Something that drives him to go outside"
As he then rest and prepare for tomorrow.
Paladin dofan then return to the mansion.
On the very morning
Samhain greets him "oh you were very early"
Dofan then wish to meet fallion immediately
Although fallion is already awake. Many servants discouraged dofan for bothering their lord's rest but josul let him.
Josul said to samhain "it's better for him to tells him... We can't keep this a secret "
Samhain then sit down and nod.
Fallion greet dofan
"You were very early but yeah I already awake anyway "
Dofan then take a deep breath"fallion..... I have an important mission but more than that I already heard about you in mage society "
Fallion see dofan panicking" ....
....
Yeah figured It out....I don't blame you or the servants, I believe all of you do this for me and fordragon sake "
Dofan left speechless
Fallion continue" I feel strange things. As all of you keep something a secret for me,as I have suspected but. I'm powerless to find whatever it is.
But whatever it is. It must be something so crucial right"
Dofan then look on the family portrait at the living room.
"Yeah...but it's not fair. Nor I could blame her.... But such cruel fate my auntie doesn't deserve it. I failed to reveal this to fordragon, and ever since he never spoke to me."
Fallion then sit down "it was that severe turns out..... "
Dofan then added" I have not guts to tells you that's where I failed your brothers.
Fallion.
I am the one who slain your mother".
Shocked fallions immediately return to his daemon forms. The fire in his skin began to scorched. A powerfull pulse just released Gaz'mirna even startled with it.
However fallion isn't a child anymore ever since he accepted who he is. He already mature more than the servants expect.
"I'm sorry for my manner ...." As fallion immediately return to his human forms.
"It's definitely far from what I anticipate. But Im . I don't expect this... But I believe you have explanation " as fallion try to hold his tears.
Where tears already wet dofan face
"On that day our mission to Qa'stur we were ambushed by a mysterious knight.
They were called "rift Occult Imperator knight"
They were nothing like we ever saw.
We were outmatched.
We fought daemon and cultist alike but nothing come close to this.
They possessed power where a single of them may as powerful as ascendant daemon
(Nobles class daemon born with massive power. And often feared by other daemon)"
Fallion shocked hearing this.
Dofan continue " we were outmatched.unlike outer god and daemon out holy magic has no affect towards them.
Our steal shattered the moment it hits them
Even if there's like only 80 of them we barely manage to took out 20 of them.
Before the cultist start ambush us"
Dofan with tears all over his face " that's where your mother decide to tells us to retreat so we could regroup and prepare counter attack, however during our retreat one of the rift Occult Imperator knight knocked her down from her house, she manage to defeat one on duels but the cultist manage to catch her.
We couldn't save her ,as we then launch the second assault on battlefield we manage to drive the cultist but that day I see an eerie figure amongst the cultist .
There I see Katherine again. Her body already disfigured, she then attack us like a maniac. She shouts something to her former companion as she fought them.
This terrified many .on critical moment I decide to step up and fight her.
I can feel, see her hatred and agony.
The. Horror I couldn't imagine what zotho and the cultist do to her,"
Fallion breakdown after hearing this
"Why does it have to be keeped from me " he said
"Why does fordragon knows it"
He continue
Dofan then explains " your mother's family the Sherwood possessed a unique abilities known as the bloodbonded, it's allows the family member with direct connection like parents to a child, and siblings, to see and share experienced and memories."
The spells your mother gave you when you were kid due your curse actives is to block any forms magic output of you. Which supposed cause you can't use any magic as your mana gradually be used to sustain the spells. We call it soul binding. It's usually only by highest spear of justice paladin could aquire , however your massive mana and powerfull was too much for the spell to contain. That's why you still could access magic even though it felt incomplete."
Fallion began to cry , try to block any forms of thought about the agony his mother have gone through.
"Uncle please you could rest here. I need to go to clear my mind" said fallion.
Fallion then leaves the house and goes around the border and sit near a lake.
