"I have had my eyes on Caius since the day he was born. His innate aptitude for the fla attracted to his side".
Ignatius from the Elental Spirit realm had always watched over Caius through every of his journey, small or big.
It all started with Ignatius being curious on how a normal human had such high affinity with fire. Caius's affinity with the elent of fire was enough to have him summon Ignatius, an elental king.
It had lived a really long life, yet had never once co across a material being with an affinity capable of controlling the powers of the Elental kings.
Even with Caius's affinity, Ignatius had no reason to show itself to him. It was a king of all fire Elentals, a re affinity is not enough to have it running to a mortal as an elental spirit familiar.
It was sure that Caius would have no problem with summoning even the highest tier fire Elental. Ignatius knew that would be enough for Caius to secure himself a position amongst the high echelons.
"i really thought he was going to contract with the highest tier fire elental, but he did no such thing".
Everyday that passes by with Ignatius monitoring Caius's movent to see if he had contracted with any fire Elental, it was furious to find out that he had never even once attempted to contract with a spirit, much less seen one, despite his high affinity.
"you cannot begin to imagine how frustrating it was for to see such affinity go to waste".
Caius's reason for not making a contract with am Elental Spirit is because he never needed to. Even without the help of Elental Spirits, he was already physically strong and talented in the arts of combat.
With the kind of combat talent Caius was born with, the thought of increasing his power With the help of a contract with an elental never once occurred to him.
It was a kind of ntal torture for Ignatius watching from its realm and seeing Caius pass through unnecessary stress when he could have simply taken the easy route by summoning an elental to give him power.
"you cannit begin to imagine how tough it was for watching him waste his potential as an elental user. if only there was soone who could direct him, soone to show him the way of using elental spirits as a source of power".
Ignatius was hopeful after Caius got expelled from the institute. It thought that finally, Caius was going to be more desperate than ever, and would want to seek various ans with which he can use to increase his power so he could shove it all into the faces of those who looked down on him.
Ignatius however was very disappointed to discover that even after being treated so poorly by the nobles, it did not serve as enough motivation for Caius to desire more power. Instead, it only degraded and shattered his determination.
"i was really pissed of by his actions then".
Ignatius could no longer sit idle by and watch as Caius ruins himself by limiting his potential to only taking on odd jobs.
"it was then I decided, if I wanted his real potential to surface, I needed to be the one to help him out".
Ignatius resorted to doing the one thing it never wanted to do, and that was it personally intervening in Caius life. It used its power to activate a forced summoning between it and Caius.
It did not want to let go of soone having such a high affinity towards fire. Caius not also taking notice of his affinity, did not make it any easier on Ignatius. It had to do everything it could to get Caius to understand exactly how special his talent is, and the only way Ignatius was forced into, is showing itself before Caius.
"if only he had been just a little bit smarter, I would not have had to go to the length of a forced summoning when he could have summoned himself".
If Ignatius decided on waiting till it gets summoned by Caius, it would have been far too late with Caius expending his lifespan and only having a few more years to live.
A forced summoning when Caius is still in his youth is the best way to go for soone as ignorant as Caius, and it is what Ignatius did.
"i appeared before him with dignity and elegance, doning on a persona that could overwhelm anyone standing within fifty feet of . But do you know what he said to after seeing ".
Ignatius turned its head to the side, looking at Elsa who also had her gaze turned toward it, with her eyes requesting for Ignatius to continue its tale.
"he said to , Who Are you. Can you believe that? who are you".
Elsa did not find it as questioning as Ignatius had frad the whole scene to be like. It is not essential for everyone to recognize what elental spirits look like, especially for an elental spirit king who can take on any form it so desires.
"i an, I went through so much trouble all so I can make myself presentable to him extravagantly, but what did he pay with? Who am I? Who am I?"
Elsa was in no position to retort the words of an angry Elental Spirit king, all she could do is continue riding on her horse while waiting for Ignatius to calm down.
"anyway, being the dignified and forgiving kind that I am, I overlooked his rude manner toward and went ahead to introduce myself to him and why I appeared before him. I promised to grant him strength, the kind that would make those who dared to look down on him eat their words, in return for him worshipping an!!".
"i apologize lord Spirit king, but can your story hold? We have got Incoming".
Elsa did not an to be rude to Ignatius, but she had no choice after detecting the presence of five moving hastily toward her and the army she is on the march with.
