Chapter 10
Far away, inside the Grand Library of the Sacred Order, an elderly librarian carefully dusted shelves lined with priceless books. Most of the volumes were hundreds of years old, while some had existed long before the kingdom itself. The library was usually silent, disturbed only by the gentle sound of turning pages and soft footsteps across the polished floor.Without warning, one of the books began to tremble.The librarian frowned and stepped closer, wondering if he had imagined it. Before he could inspect it, another book started shaking. Then another. Within seconds, an entire section of ancient tomes vibrated as though an invisible force had awakened inside them."What is this?" he whispered.A thick black book suddenly erupted in brilliant silver flames.The old man cried out in alarm. "No!"He rushed toward the shelf, hoping to save it before the fire spread. However, before he could reach the burning volume, a second book burst into the same strange silver flames. Then a thi

The figure stepped out of the celestial gate, and time itself seemed to stop.The wind vanished. No birds crossed the sky, and no one dared to speak above a whisper. High above the kingdom, the enormous celestial gate continued to shine with a cold silver light while thick waves of mist poured from its opening, spreading across the heavens like an endless sea.The mysterious figure descended without making a single sound. It did not flap its wings or cast a shadow upon the ground. Instead, it drifted downward with an effortless grace that defied every law of nature.Its body was wrapped in flowing black robes that looked as though they had been woven from the night itself. Long streams of silver light drifted across the fabric like living rivers. Six dark wings spread behind it, but they were unlike the wings of any bird. Tiny stars shimmered between the feathers, as though fragments of the night sky had become trapped within them.Its face remained hidden beneath a deep hood, making

Suddenly, a deafening roar shook the mountains, sending powerful vibrations through the earth beneath everyone's feet.Every head turned toward the northern sky.Far above the clouds, several enormous dragons appeared. They belonged to the Royal Dragon Knights, the elite guardians who constantly patrolled the skies around the capital. Moments earlier, the mighty beasts had been soaring through the heavens without interruption.Now, every one of them had stopped.The dragons hovered motionless in the air, their massive wings beating in slow, steady rhythms that echoed across the valley. Then, one after another, the ancient creatures lowered their enormous heads toward the arena. Toward Lucien.A royal knight stared at the unbelievable sight, his face draining of color. "Impossible," he whispered. "Our dragons bow to no one."Another knight tightened his grip on his reins as he watched the impossible unfold. "They're not bowing out of respect," he said quietly. "They're afraid of somet

The world fell silent.Only a heartbeat earlier, the Royal Ascension Grounds had been alive with laughter, applause, and excited conversations. Now, an eerie stillness settled over the arena as if the world itself had stopped breathing. Thousands of people stood frozen in place, unable to understand what they were witnessing.The brilliant morning sun suddenly began to fade.Darkness spread across the sky with unnatural speed, swallowing the warm golden light that had bathed the marble arena only moments before. It was not the slow arrival of storm clouds. Instead, it felt as though an invisible hand had reached across the heavens and covered the sun itself.People instinctively lifted their eyes toward the sky.The sun was still there. But an enormous black shadow was slowly passing in front of it.A wave of frightened gasps rippled through the crowd."The moon..." someone whispered, their voice trembling with fear."The moon is covering the sun!""It... it shouldn't happen this fas

The awakenings continued one after another, each one drawing fresh excitement from the crowd.Some children summoned mighty Earth Bears that radiated raw strength. Others awakened elegant Crystal Lions whose shimmering bodies sparkled beneath the sunlight. Thunder Hawks descended from the sky in flashes of lightning, while towering Forest Giants emerged like ancient guardians from forgotten ages. There were Stone Turtles whose shells resembled mountains and Fire Foxes whose crimson tails danced with living flames.No two familiars were alike, and every successful awakening was greeted with thunderous applause.Lucien watched everything in silence.Each new familiar filled him with the same mixture of awe and dread. The creatures were magnificent, yet every success reminded him that his own turn was drawing closer.Around him, noble families celebrated proudly."Our son awakened a Thunder Hawk!""Our daughter received an Emerald Deer!""The future of our house is secure!"Parents embra
Chapter 5
The first light of dawn had barely touched the mountains when the roads leading to the Royal Ascension Grounds became crowded. Carriages decorated with noble crests rolled along the wide stone roads one after another, while horses clad in polished silver armor pulled wealthy families toward the capital. Merchants eagerly opened colorful stalls beside the streets, calling out to passing travelers as they displayed charms, food, and lucky trinkets for the thousands of visitors expected to attend.Today was unlike any other day.Today was the Soul Familiar Ascension Ceremony. It was the day that decided a young person's future.A single awakening could raise a common child to greatness, while a single failure could shatter generations of noble pride.For every eighteen-year-old across the kingdom, this ceremony was far more than a celebration. It was a judgment that would shape the rest of their lives.Lucien rode in the last carriage belonging to the Ashcroft family. Not inside. Outsi
