Kiran from Begonia City

Kiran, an 11-year-old, lives in Begonia City with his parents, Arhun and Kora Wang.

He doesn't have a sibling. When he was 19, two of his older brothers, Thorn Wang, perished in a conflict with the Chosa. The second oldest sister in the Wang family, who also perished in battle, died after Aura Wang. The Qingchang Empire enlisted all to aid Hersen in his conflict with Chosa and Zhouya.

Kiran can still recall. Thorn Wang was proclaimed dead in battle then. Imperial soldiers were knocking on the door with a letter from the empire that read aloud in front of the door, "The Empire is very grateful for the contribution of the deceased's young manpower."

The mother of Kiran passed out.

Arhun Wang tried to maintain his composure while listening to the soldiers read the official news from beginning to end. The home spent a month in mourning. Every day, Arhun stopped speaking and went silent.

Another imperial soldier rang the doorbell again a season later. The news was read in front of Arhun, Kora, and Kiran.

"On the edge of the Chosa Empire, the skywraith, the spirit ship that Aura Wang was aboard, exploded, shot by the magic fire of the enemy land pyromancer."

Even though the soldier's lips were reading the obituary, it remained silent.

Next on the bed was Arhun Wang, suffering from a fatal illness. He changed into an undead and became immobile and speechless—only silence on the bed.

In the pine forest, Kiran becomes lost. Three of his naughty mates were missing after two hours. He had unknowingly entered the Forbidden Forest's heart on a deeper level.

Dusk is approaching in the sky. The horizon appeared dark; shortly, it would be entirely dark, signalling the approach of night. The forbidden jungle immediately became unsettling. Kiran experienced the sensation of being flung into an unfamiliar environment. He sees nothing but nature and a series of tiny hills before him. Mysterious and unsettling.

It was unexpected by Kiran. Line Hills is the region between Qingchang and Zolia's border wall.

He noticed the slope line on top. There is a tall wall, and thin, dark smoke covers it. It emanated a mysterious atmosphere that reduced Kiran's goosebumps.

Kiran quickly understood that the measure had long since crumbled. He panicked at once!

"This marks the international border. The edge is rumoured to be militarized; also, there are a lot of sorcerers and masters of the element controllers who serve the Emperor. Wretched! Instead of being executed as a family, I could have been charged with espionage.

He felt bad about it. Now turn around and resent yourself! "What have I done exactly? Why is it so audacious to enter this horrifyingly barred area? The best method is to run.

However, as soon as he entered the forest, everything appeared dark as ink. Even the moonlight cannot penetrate the leaf cells.

Kiran swung around once again. He stopped in the middle of a tiny field whose edge was bordered by the Line Hills, which were visible on the horizon.

Kiran pondered this while he prepared the ground at the base of the pine tree for him to lay down, thinking that waiting until it was light was a prudent move.

It's getting later in the night. Kiran didn't shut his eyes either. He curled up beneath the pine tree without even daring to move. He feared that if patrolmen saw him, they would mark him.

This prank will be difficult for my entire family. It's unfortunate for the mother, who is ageing, and the father, who is disabled. His cheeks were covered in tears. But it's never too late to apologize.

The moment he calmed down, Kiran was able to think clearly. The heart's longing to live becomes increasingly strong.

"I don't want to die here!" he cried, but his stomach rumbled, signalling that hunger had overtaken him.

Unfortunately, he was met by the buzzing sound of the chilly night wind. It aggravated the hunger even more. Which food should I eat? I'm not even armed with any supplies. This incident is beyond my ability to comprehend, Kiran grieved.

He braved the hunger and chilly forest air throughout the night. Despite feeling sleepy, he dared not close his eyes because of the howling wolves.

Just as he was about to close his eyes, two little dots began racing each other in the height of the sky above him. I mistakenly believed that the occasional tiny flicker bursting into flames like a spark was a normal occurrence.

He stared at the foggy sky, which suddenly became attractive as the tired eyes grew more and more intolerable. In space, two moving points are pursuing one another. Kiran abruptly sprang to her feet. He crossed the grassy field's border as he emerged from the woods.

The two points are becoming more distinct. Kiran questioned. "Hold on a second! A meteor was not a naturally occurring occurrence. However, two living beings are chasing the sky. Kiran grew irritated right away.

Is it a form of border patrol magic? I'd best run away.

Just as he turned to enter the woodland, the two spots became more obvious. Its form resembles a bird with large wings. It was interesting to note that the chicken was crimson and on fire.

Kiran scowls. "Hold on a second! Is it the storied creature? But never!"

Kiran used his hands to rub his eyes. He then raised another glance to the heavens. And then the shock came. "Phoenix! Kiran yelled, "That's right, it's Phoenix!" under control.

"I've seen images of that animal. Before the conflict, it was located in Begonia City's library.

Now Kiran is intrigued. He looked at the gleaming thing chasing the Phoenix. That's a ship. Which cruise ship has wings? Is this the 'Spirit Ship' as they term it? Kiran developed a growing level of interest.

He boldened himself and unconsciously moved into the centre of the grassy field. He can now be seen in the distance from above the sky.

Duar!

Flames suddenly appeared and shot out in the direction of the spirit ship. Kiran's eyes grew larger.

Amazing show! Phoenix is fought by Spirit Ship! They must die of envy if I tell those three brats about this. More and more, Kiran began to forget that he needed to remain undetected by the officers aboard the spirit ship by hiding.

Ten people on the spirit ship were also donning the distinctive military garb of the magic division at the same time, and they were firing fire repeatedly at the enormous thing. And to Kiran's shock, no guns were used to fire the explosion's flames. However, the palm is thrust forward.

"Wretched! They are fire benders and magicians. Pyromancer." Kiran was in disbelief.

This is not a fantasy. But actual: Pyromancer and Hydromancer versus the famous Phoenix and ten experts!"

Kiran couldn't take her eyes from the field's centre. It was evident from above. The wizards couldn't miss it. A real little boy observes magic performances that should not be casually observed while conducting forbidden reconnaissance. Kiran desired to depart. But it was difficult to miss the expression in the pyromancer's eyes as he stared at him from that deck.

"Is our Wang family coming to an end? " Kiran sobbed vehemently in his heart. He thinks they will all receive the death penalty for their arrogant behaviour.

Note: Elementalist fire benders are pyromancers, while Elementalist water benders are hydromancers. It is known as Aeromancer for wind controllers and Geomancer for the person in charge of the ground.
