"Aahhh ... it hurts."A middle-aged man grimaced in pain. He held his hand, which was swollen as if it had been stung by a venomous snake."Uncle, what happened to your hand, Uncle?" asked a teenager who was around thirteen years old. He stared at the man in front of him and looked confused, because the man had suddenly grimaced in pain."It's nothing, Uncle's hand is fine." The man lied as he hid his hand behind his back. A few moments earlier, he had shaken the teenager's hand, but when they touched, his hand suddenly felt crushed as if it had been struck by a hammer.The teenager's name was Kaelan, he was the prince of the Kingdom of Aetherion. A kingdom that was respected by the world in this modern era."Are you sure Uncle's hand is fine?" Kaelan asked with an innocent face.He had forgotten, he was very different from children his age, even among adults there was no one who could touch him except his Father and Mother.His body possessed tremendous strength, he had once tried to

A week had passed since Kaelan started school in Ashvale Village. His memory had not returned at all, not even a glimpse could be seen. He simply continued his life with the neighbors' insults, and attended school calmly. When the bell rang, Miss Bella returned to the classroom to continue the final hour of the lesson. Miss Bella began explaining the lesson again, this time about fractions and decimals, which Kael obviously considered very easy. "Alright, children," said Miss Bella while writing a rather complicated question on the blackboard. "Who can solve this problem? This is the type of question that most often appears in the final exam." The problem involved division, multiplication, and addition of mixed fractions. Most of the students, including Brad, looked indifferent, even thinking about how to answer the problem was already beyond him. The problem was indeed intended for the smartest students in the class. Meanwhile, Kaelan stared at the problem. To a normal person's

“Mr. Joe,” called Kaelan, who was already standing alert in front of the workshop.Mr. Joe turned around, slightly surprised to see the child who was usually the subject of gossip at his workshop.“Eh, aren't you that illegitimate child who moved here from the city?”Kaelan did not care about the image people knew him by, he would change that insulting nickname as quickly as possible.“What do you want? Want to fill your bicycle tires with air? But you don't have a bicycle. You're just a poor kid pretending to be from the city.”Brad and his two friends only glanced at each other. Meanwhile, Kaelan remained calm. The mockery did not bother him at all.“I indeed don't have a bicycle, Sir. That's why I didn't say I wanted to fill its tires,” Kaelan replied. “I saw that used carburetor over there. Can I buy it for a toy? Brad and I happen to need some metal pieces for a handicraft assignment.”Mr. Joe began to wonder, and for a split second he glanced at the pile of trash and then laughe

When the woman saw Kaelan approaching with his face covered, her body immediately tensed. Her fear grew even stronger. Although in the dim light she could see her son on Kaelan’s back, the woman still thought Kaelan was part of the kidnappers, or someone who would kill her. “Huuu… huuuuu…” the woman’s voice was unclear because black tape covered her mouth. Her eyes blinked rapidly, and tears continued to flow without stopping. Kaelan stopped at a safe distance, without rushing. He kept his voice calm and did not raise it, so the woman could understand his intentions. “Don’t be afraid, I’m not a bad person,” Kaelan said softly. “Your child is fine, Ma’am. He is only unconscious. I managed to save him.” The woman stared at him without blinking, as if she was still trying to understand and was still hesitant to believe him. Kaelan continued, restraining himself so as not to frighten the woman further. “But after you return, please report to Mr. Arthur, the head of the neighborhood. I hav

As they stepped into the main hall of the warehouse, the air suddenly felt completely different.The temperature dropped abruptly. It was not the cold of an AC, but a cold that pierced the bones. A musty smell mixed with a strange scent filled Kaelan's nose.“Boss, why does it feel so hard to breathe?” Brad whispered.Kaelan did not answer. He felt it too. His chest felt tight, as if a huge stone were pressing down on his lungs. His head began to throb painfully.‘This reaction again,’ Kaelan thought. ‘My head hurts.”The pressure in the room grew stronger. For ordinary humans, this was pure fear. But for Kaelan's body, which contained the Ancient God Bone, even though its owner was unaware of it, this dirty energy pressure was a provocation.Suddenly, Kaelan's vision blurred.He did not do anything. He did not chant any spells. But his body reacted on its own to reject the pressure. His spine felt burning hot. His heartbeat raced wildly.THUD.The world around Kaelan spun.The dark a
