THE GUARDIAN'S FINAL QUEST- Adams journey to six worlds

chapter 4-Hero's Memories 2

“Your majesty, crown princess Lady Elena” Elena turns and smiles

Elena sits in an expensive dinner hall filled with elite mages in three distinct colored Tunis uniforms. Students in complete green Tunis were fresh men from families of low nobility ranking or families of nobility low ranks of baronets who possessed wealth.

Red Tunis represents Nobility which was worn by sons of nobles and high lords. Blue are sons of families who are heroes or hold important positions in the kingdom. White was won by sons of dukes, high lords, and heroes knighted by the king but Elena Tunis was a matching white top Tunis and black pants. On the side of her shoulder was a mix of colorful attires of red, green, and blue like top-ranking military generals who represent royalties such as a princess.

As she sat eating her luxury expensive meals, passing students bowed their heads in honor and awe of the princess. The princess stared at the chicken bone with flesh in it. She licks her lips and focuses on the chicken. She opens her mouth when the voice cuts in on her again.

“Princess Elena, it is customary as royalty to leave a piece of flesh on the chicken and not eat everything. Eating everything shows signs of indiscipline and behavioral patterns of baronets and saparism meaning poverty" A humanoid tortoise speaks adjusting his glasses to his ridges and taking his sit opposite Elena.

" Eeeehen! Says who? Wise, I like the sound of my jaws crushing the chicken bones" the princess suckled at the green tortoise. The tortoise's hand moved straight for the chicken bones but the princess seemed to drag with him and wouldn't let go of the bones however Wise the tortoise pulled it by force.

"I will report you to the maid Tina if you don’t let go and Princess as your bonded spirit animal. I am entitled to finish your royal delicious meal on your behalf" remembering the talkative nagging maid Tina. The princess let go of the bones tormented by the imagery of the maid. “She would probably call me a dog"

Wise opened his cute wide mouth with a smile and bit a large chunk of the chicken flesh.

" Hmmmmm! Nothing like some chicken bones and flesh, Talking about dogs and chicken, I remembered those days in the mystical magic Forest in the dark continent why I became bald without hair. That day I went to visit Mr. Dog “Tortoise began to recall.

So it turns out that Mr. Wise the tortoise as he was popularly called in the magical world used to have a lot of blonde hair until his wicked ways made him lose it.

Mr. Dog and his family were making chicken porridge in their front yard one day and like the evil spirit he was, the tortoise was on the run. He decided to run to one of his friend’s place who happens to be Mr. Dog. The tortoise somehow smelt and followed the aroma to the dog’s house.

Instead of asking for a plate of food like a sensible person, Tortoise decided to lie that the king of the jungle King David the Lion had summoned Mr. Dog and his family, Tortoise promised to safeguard his house while they were gone. As soon as they left, he began eating as much as he could, knowing that they would hurry back as soon as they realized the king wasn’t even around. After a while, He heard the sound of their footsteps.

He heard them approaching and decided to take some porridge home for his family but he had nothing to put it in. He got the brilliant idea to stuff the porridge in his hat and wear it. Mr. Dog came back and was so annoyed that Tortoise had wasted his time and they argued for a bit when all the tortoise wanted to do was rush home. The pain eventually got too much for the tortoise to bear, so he removed his hat, and the porridge along with his hair fell out to everyone’s dismay. His head was burnt with smoke and that’s how the Tortoises became bald.

Mr. Dog had caught the tortoise's red hand unknowing to the tortoise that the lion had told the dog that Mr. Wise the tortoise had stolen from the village Hen. And that was how he was caught. Wise the tortoise nods his head to his memories telling a story as the princess looked at him surprised to his story however Princess Elena's friends Eliot, Samson, and Betty walk and grab a seat swiftly to the princess after bowing their heads.

“So did you find out?" The princess's countenance changed to a more serious countenance.

"My princess it was a dead lead. We searched the archive of the enforcers but couldn't find the owners of the emblem" Eliot- a big guy with broad shoulders on blue Tunis. He has a dark brown short tiny spike hair with matching eyes. Eliot gave a blue Tunis pocket with two white crossed swords to the princess.

“Tsk! I need to find them. This is the third time. The third f*cking time they tried to assassinate the king and I. I wish the lead found the antidote to the poison. When I catch the next assassin, I will be able to prevent them from killing themselves with the Bitchsan poison and find who they are" Princess slams the table violently and the heads of students turn to look in her direction. Wise the tortoise interjected

"Princess, watch your anger, please. You spoke of a cursed word again. You said the word f*ck".

“stop interrupting me wise. I know what I said f*ck " Elena raised her voice in anger.

The tortoise then whispered silently "You said the word f*ck again" Elena frowns.

“Well, well calm down princess, though we didn't get a lead. We got something going down tonight that might give us a lead. Samson tells her" Betty cuts in. Betty was a beautiful woman with purple eyes and hair with large rounded glasses on red Tunis who spoke sign language.

" Well princess, I got the scoop from my father in the drug law enforcers. There is going to be a gang run-down tonight. Some gangs using children to do drugs" Samson, blue Tunis, long green spiky hair with brown eyes.

“You should have said something earlier. Well let's meet at the secret base tonight" Elena rose to her feet and the others followed suit. She plumed her hand and said.

“Tonight, I will solve the unsolved mysteries" The closing bell rang and the princess and the group walked through the hall heading for the school entrance.

At the same time,

The sun’s reflection filtered illuminated light into a classroom filled with students wearing milk-laced shirt sleeves, brown pants, and boots with combat leather armor. The student listened to a teacher, and Hero sat far back at the end of the class, close to the window, and woke up due to the sun's reflection on his face. The adventurer mage teacher just finished teaching his class.

The closing bell rang through the medieval hallway, and Hero got up from his seat and walked through the crowd of students in the class when three Adventurer students walked out.

" Hey failed ranker. Jason wants to see you but first, you need to pay up." the two students smack their teeth while cracking their necks ready for a fight. Hero stared at the three adventurer students. ‘’It has always been like this. Ever Since that day my mana was sealed by Lucian’’.Hero looked at his enemies and recalled how the bully started.

Five years old Hero was pulled by Lucian and Sabrina and backed Historia Lucian’s daughter. They entered a building between two massive academies and the number of people inside the building was astounding. There was hardly any space to move or sit. Parents and their children sat waiting patiently for their turn.

Hero saw a child cry past them they believed he was not accepted by the Steam Mage Academy as he wanted. Entering a room, they discovered a table and two chairs on either side of the table with a giant crystal orb in the middle of the table.

Mages from both Steam Mage and Adventurers Academy stood behind a lady receptionist.

Hero believes when they discover potential, they are admitted by various representatives.

Hero saw people tested and within five minutes they were done. They walked to find a seat among the crowd. Hero saw people bow and greet Lucian and Sabrina with great reverse. They were famous hunters and top blacksmiths. Sabrina was a saint from the church school. That is another different prestigious school whose ability is light and their spells are chanting prayers to bend reality.

They are hated by the Steam Mage Academy so much because they are almost as powerful as them without losing any sacrifice to bend reality when creating powerful miracles, unlike Steam mages who exchange something either mana or aging or anything to steam machines in other to create powerful magic and Lucian was a famous blacksmith, Adventurer.

"Mr Lucian and Mrs. Sabrina Allan Giovanni " the receptionist in white mage uniform called for them. They got up from their seat and sat on the table. Everyone was curious to know what color the famous family would possess. Yellow for flames, blue for water magic, white for healing and miracle, and other colors for air and other elements. They checked Historia Hero's two-year-old sister and the orb glowed bright white. This means she would be trained by the Academy of Holy Knights and the saint of the church. They can use prayers to summon incredible healing and blinding miracles.

It was finally Hero's turn and Lucian and Sabrina acting as parents supported him by placing his two hands on the orb. The orb didn't react at all. The orb remains the same then cracks, disgust flashes in the face of the receptionist.

"What the hell is this? Your son has created a class for himself in the ranking system. This has never happened before."

Hero could hear the surprise shout of the crowd behind them. This was impossible, a child with no Mana. It had never been told a child was born without mana. He must be cursed.

The murmurs of parents behind whispered gossip. News travels fast and am sure by the time Hero will be home. People would have heard of his story. This is not good.

" Please, I know my son would fall under the copper rank but what class would my son fall in. E I presume?" Lucian questions with expectations. Although they blocked his mana core, they had expected it would reveal some colors and fall under the class E to keep him safe.

" No, your son's rank would be on his class which means F-rank," said the receptionist.

" And what does F-rank mean?" Asked Sabrina

"It means a failed rank. E class can develop and grow to A but F rank remains the same for the rest of their life. This has never happened before"

....

I was recognized as the ranker who never grew—in other words, a failed ranker, and what made it worse was that the building I was tested was the building that stands between Steam Mage Academy and Adventurers. It was easy for one student to spread news like it is now. Being bullied and getting my ass whole by these bullies rekindle the past and for that reason, no one wants to associate with me.

Hero refused to pay and the student grab his shirt, they got his ass whooped by the three students in class after taking his money and they departed. He got up on his feet and walked out through the hall.

Oregon world was divided into four cardinal continents, which are known as the continents of Georgia, Sweed, Camelot, and the Dark Continent. Georgia was known to be the most powerful continent, and all other kingdoms paid tribute to it. Sweed continent was one nation before the Great Divide into five kingdoms. This kingdom lay in the shape of a cross, and Lukedonia was once the capital of Sweed and is now the epicenter of five kingdoms, which are Gamelia, Sweed, Saphira, and Leam.

As I walked among the crowd of people in the busy streets of Lukedonia city, I saw academy uniforms of red and yellow Tunis on black pants and dark boots. The students in this uniform were students at Steam Mage Academy. A prestigious school filled with wealthy students is the dream of many aspiring youths in Lukedonia.

They moved with pride, and their buildings were sophisticated. I heard a rumor that the teachers of the school were either heroes from one of the four kingdoms or great mages. Either way, they had great teachers who were in the SSS class under the tag category of diamonds.

A diamond tag is the highest form of nobility, strength, and power. No wonder the students can't be toyed with. Two massive buildings are next to the Steam Mage Academy before you reach the Adventurer Academy.

This was the school for low-ranked people who couldn't afford the cost of Steam Mage Academy. Everyone in Oregon possesses one form of mana art which is input into steam propellers, either high class or low class, and the orb defines what category you belong to, then leveling up from that level.

The Adventurer buildings looked quite ordinary, even though they had pride in being the strongest sword Adventurers in the kingdom. They turned their weakness into magic by using magical artifacts found in ruins or invented by Adventurer Mages. An individual who falls under the E class is ranked as copper, and those in the D to C classes are ranked as bronze.

Though the adventurer guild and A-class adventurers do most of the great monster hunts, the students of Adventurer Academy are disdained. Steam Mage and Adventurer Academies are like oil and water that don't mix because the differences in wealth ratios are quite high and clear.

Mages can bend reality easily by casting a spell from Rehema's mana, and Adventurers rely on channeling their mana through artifacts to cast magic, but once the artifact is destroyed, they are vulnerable. The disgust of these prideful mages as artifacts was viewed as weak and lazy. Hero stood among the crowd to watch a drama unfold as he saw the princess and a student.

….

Elena Walking out of the Steam mage academy compound entrance. Suddenly a handsome-skinned guy with flaming golden hair matching his eyes slide through the marble floor way of the school compound to the front of the princess.

He bows his head and lifts it with a smile. He lifted a red rose flower and gave it to the princess and began to demonstrate.

"Oh my dear sweet precious princess Elena, I never believed in love at first sight, but that's before I saw you. You're so beautiful, dazzling, and astonishing. you made me forget my pickup line. “Princess Elena's eyes narrowed staring at this familiar guy flaunting in front of her. Female mages voiced out like a choir in awe of his manliness.

"Do you have a map? Because I just got lost in your eyes." Betty plummed her hands gritty her teeth in anger and annoyance. The man continued is toasting.

"My parents told me not to talk to strangers, but I’ll make an exception for you because we went to school together. I could swear we had chemistry." And Princess Elena cuts in.

"Prince charming Charles, I had physics as a subject course today. Not chemistry, now excuse me" Elena shouted and walked past him.

........

"Hey, newbie what are you doing?" A guard called to Hero whipping her whip on the ground.

" Pick the pick axe and get to work dammit" i grabbed a pick axe and walked to a crystal stone in the mine.

I lifted my pickaxe casually above my head and brought it down vertically, accompanied by the same amount of force on the crystal stone.

KABOOM

The rocks parted ways as they split with a colossal hole. The dungeon trembles and this caught the attention of the guards who whistle in surprise. The children halted in shock as the mountainous rock was divided in half by share raw strength.

I looked at my palm amazed at my strength. A guy whistled

“That some strength you got there, even with the manilluim collar on your neck, you are still powerful. I believe with your strength we could achieve a day’s work in one hour, but just to remind you what you would be expecting if you decided to rebel.” The lady pressed a remote control and thousands of electric volts surged through my body from the manillium collar on my neck and the world spun around me. I collapsed on the floor.

....

I opened my eyes and I heard my name.

"Neo, Neo! Wake up you dim wit" Sandra's eyes narrowed and she slapped my face and I squeezed open my eyes to the arena.

“What the hell? A dream, No, they felt real. It can't be a dream. What is going on?" My attention was caught by loud thudding on the arena ground. As Sandra and I looked, Destiny the raging bull stormed the ground and leaped into the air with his giant sword above his head aimed at us.
