Chapter 4 - glimpse of past

"Your highness ,you are in this condition because you were hit by a powerful light element magic attack during one of your practice combat assessment in the academy, although immediate aid was provided by the academy healer but you were not showing any sign to wake up-despite not finding anything unusual with your body ,therefore the healer concluded that you might be in the state of coma because of the shock,so without any further delay you were brought here."

Marie look carefully at Darian after she was done with her brief and precise explanation.

After hearing marie word ,darian was a little lost as the memory of that event flashed before his eyes.

The memories-the memory of that particular event where training ground was buzzing with students who were going frenzy in desperation and were whispering among themselves with their eyes darted towards the arena-The training arena was a vast, open space enclosed by magic barrier, designed to withstand both magic and steel. Solid ground to withstand the strongest attack a student can possibly muster.

But scene unfolded seems to question it's credibility with arena lay in ruins, a graveyard of shattered stone and scorched sand.The ground was torn open, deep cracks spiderwebbing across the training floor where magic had ripped through the earth like a vengeful god's fury. Smoke curled from smoldering debris, the scent of burned wood and charred metal hanging thick in the air.

Among this chaos, lay a man-darian on the destroyed floor with his eye's looking ahead-against him stood a man about the same age with the amuse expression gazing down at him.

"Danian ,oh Danian"

"Told you but you never listen."

Without a single ounce of remorse or guilty and any change in expression he continue"fate which is destined to be follow can't be altered by someone like you."

"Likes of you are destined to be trampled under our feet , can't you accept it and simply be.gone like other."

"Look into the eye's of those around us -those eyes held awe, amazement, infatuation,respect- all those very emotion for me but for you their is nothing more than disdain or best sympathy."

Hearing those words,his body started trembling which want to shattered his whole existence—wants to pull the soul out of his body.The cruelty of those words that were questioning his existence.

The man standing before him broke into smirk seeing darian state.

He couldn't help but let out a small chuckle"so darian let's bring an end this play."

Facing the ridicule ,darian gritted his teeth in anger with his eyes blood shot seemingly madness took over him.

"I am gonna kill you."

Mustering all the strength he could,he rise to his feet although a little staggeringly.

Narrowing his eyes at Darian and tilting his head,he couldn't help but sneer"are you really tired of living..!"

Without answering, through his ragged breadth-darian move the hand to wipe the blood from corner of his mouth.

His eyes burning with blaze as if it contain the rage of whole the world,the disrespect,insult and disdain that he got to endure— all those feelings seems to be converge into a single emotion, hatred—the deep root one at that.

Gathering all the mana he could,not wanting to leave a single drop from his body only to be left in regret,darian started muttering some unrecognisable word-seemigly a chant for the spell.

"I will definitely make this happen."

Gritting his teeth as the unbearable weariness spread through his body but not wanting to scum to it ,he click his tongue and enduring the agony while he stretch his hand in the direction of his opponent as a small dark ball materialized before his hand ,the dark mass was pulsating as if it has life of it's own , squeezing every ouce of mana to the point of having his mana heart collapse.

"Go to hell..!"

After muttering darian let go of ball ,advancing towards his opponent at an alarming speed.

But before it could cover half the distance between them ,it was slice in two perfect hemisphere.

"What just—"

Darian eye widen at the incomprehensible situation and his mouth hung open but before he could pose a question he was shot by a blinding beam of golden light seemingly radiating divine power sending him flying backward, hitting the magic barrier hard before he collapse to the ground.

Gazing at man with intense hatred who was dusting his hand as if done with handling the garbage.

"One day,I will definitely make you pay for what you have done ,this revenge will soon become your worst nightmare which I would never let you wake up from—i swear on goddess with this life of mine, and if I couldn't ,I might as well cease to exist in this meaningless world."

Darian mutter with raw emotion oozing out his face.

Lastly,

"things could have taken a better turn but alas..."

Weakly muttering those words as his head turned to a particular direction, settling on a particular figure in the audience but before he could complete his word ,exhaustion took over his body as his body exhaustion dominated his emotional feelings before he lost his consciousness.
