"I was... just a normal person once." Mira said in a sad soft voice
She was standing in the middle of nowhere evething was dark only she alone was there all alone,Then she begin to speak
"I rember when magic still felt like wonder"
"I was five years old when I first felt it - that warm, golden pulse in my chest when I healed my scraped knee Mama’s eyes went wide when she saw the cut seal itself. Papa hushed us both, his calloused hands shaking as he knelt before "
"Mira, my little star," he whispered, "you must never show this to anyone."
But children are terrible at keeping secrets.
By seven, the other kids called "witch-spawn" and "curse-child" They’d throw stones that left bruises deeper than the marks on my skin. I’d co ho with torn dresses and mud-caked hair, and Mama would hug so tight I could barely breathe.
"Why do they hate ?" I asked once.
Papa’s jaw clenched. "Because fear makes people cruel, my heart. And nothing frightens them more than what they don’t understand."
I was nine when the noble boy saw healing a wounded sparrow behind the baker’s shop. His scream still echoes in my nightmares.
"Rogue mage! She’s using forbidden magic!"
That night, my parents packed my things with trembling hands. Papa pressed a stolen Academy seal into my palm - still warm from where he’d hidden it against his skin.
"Run to the eastern gates," he said, his voice raw. "Tell them you’re Mira of House Veyne."
Mama kissed my forehead. I rember how her tears tasted - salt and sorrow. "Don’t look back, my star. Never look back."
I didn’t. Because there was no one to look back for....they killed my parents and took there organs in hoping to create another child like ...who could use magic there was no one that was the first ti when i kept my promise....to not look back..
Not when the shouting started. Not when the sll of smoke filled the air. I ran until my lungs burned, until my legs gave out. I only stopped when the Academy’s golden gates lood before , taller than anything in the slums.
That was the first night I slept on marble floors instead of straw. The first night I was truly alone.
I sohow managed to entered a magic academy where everyone could learn how to use magic but.....
The nobles’ children knew I didn’t belong with them
"Look at her hands," they’d sneer. "Those are servant’s hands."
I learned to hide my magic at first, just like Papa taught . But the instructors tested us daily, and my power... it wanted to go all out. Like a caged beast rattling my ribs.
When I was twelve, a duke’s son broke my finger during sparring practice. "Oops," he smirked. "Slum rats shouldn’t play with real mages." He said
"Sothing in snapped"
Before I realized what I was doing, my magic lashed out - not just healing my finger, but a slash, the slash which contains my rage and Anger, the good thing was that the slash wasn’t that strong at that ti, His bones fractured with sickening cracks.
The silence that followed was worse than the screams.
That was the day they started fearing ...that day i was nad as the "Witch of the slums"
While the nobles slept on silk sheets, I practiced spells until my nose bled. While they feasted, I morized ancient tos by candlelight. Their whispers followed everywhere:
*"Monster."*
*"Freak."*
*"She’ll tear herself apart."*
Let them talk. Let them say. I didn’t care
By sixteen, I could cut training dummies with a glance. By seventeen, I dueled masters and won. The more they feared , the harder I trained. Their hatred beca my strength.
Until one day....when i was sitting alone in a bench near a park watching the beautiful flowers, a novel boy ca towards and without saying anything he sit beside and said
"So you are the Great Witch Mira who people are talking about huh?"
I didn’t respond to him i just kept watching the beautiful view, he got angry that i ignored him but then he ca near to my ear and wishpear
"I heard you need money to train for the supres"
My eyes went cold my head bowd a little then he speaks again and said
"You know i can give you money so you ccan beco a supre and complete your dreams"
As he said that i knew what was comming next...
"Co have sex with then I’ll give you all money you want~"
In that mont most of the girls will scream or run away but for ... that was the only last way...i couldn’t earn that big amount on my own so... this was my plan....i would sell my body....
He smiled as he knew that i wasn’t going to refuse so he stand up and with a srk he said
"Co to my room tonight"
And just like that.....i let my first ti to that guy...so i could climb up in the top
When the forr Supre announced as- Supre at eighteen - the youngest in history - I didn’t feel proud.
I felt nothing at all.
Now, standing atop the Grand Spire, I finally let myself rember.
The way Mama humd while braiding my hair. How Papa’s laugh rumbled like distant thunder. The sll of our tiny ho before the flas took it.
A tear falls. It’s the first in years.
"I’m sorry," I whisper to the wind. "I survived. I beca strong. But I couldn’t stay... that little girl you loved."
Sowhere below, the city celebrates their new Supre. They don’t see the hollow thing I’ve beco.
Maybe that’s for the best.
The ice around my heart doesn’t hurt anymore.
And that...
That might be the saddest part of all. That’s what i thought but still in this cold heart two people still managed to stay warm....
Sir Gaizon and Shiro...when i first joined The supre i was still very young..i thought they will treat sa as others... but no... Sir Gaizon beca father-like figure to ...he care about ...
"You are still a young girl! Don’t worry we will protect you hahahha isn’t it Shiro" he said while looking at Shiro...
Shiro...i always saw him as a big brother...he never hate for my coldness... He all care about ....i started feeling like i was at ho while being with them....i even decided that after we all retire we will stay together as a family
"A happy family...i would marry a man i would love.. and gave my children’s to Sir Gaizon so they could see him as their grandchildrens..."
"I will see Shiro getting married to the girl he loved.. and as his little sister i would look after them too"
"What a happy family what a perfect life i am going to live!"
That’s what i thought...
anwhile back in the Paradise Garden inside the church i still sitting in the top couch thinking then i stand up and said
"Not like we need any plan but still we need to stop them getting here"
Gearor nodded and replied
"Yes those demons can cause Alot of of damage and we don’t want our people to get injured"
Everyone other thinks and nodded but Lunara smiled and jumped up and said
"Don’t worry master!!! I’ll kill All those fucking demons mauhahahja"
They all gave her a wired smile then i looked at her and replied
"No you can’t fight a demon lord"
She looked at in confusion then i speak again and said
"Demon lord is no odaniry thing...the Shiro guy is almost strong as you or he have done sothing that can make him even stronger"
Everyone looked at in confusion, i closed my eyes and started thinking
(We can’t let them enter here.... and most of us can’t fight in water or air....so what should i do.....)
Then suddenly Aries speaks and said
[You rember that one skill ’Garden of Oblivion’]
I opened my eyes and started thinking and rember that Aries was about to explain that then I replied
(Yes what about that?)
Then Aries speaks and said
[Let explain]
Then she started explaining then a big smile appired on my face
Outside the church in the huge training ground a huge army of humans and Beastmans and Elf were standing in a line
Jekkob was standing in the top then he raised his Sword and scream
"Warriors!!!!!!! Get ready for this war! We the Paradise warriors will give evething for our ho! everything for our family! We will not run we will not be afraid we will! WIN!!!"
Then behind him a huge tal poll appired and in the top of the poll there was a square flag in white colour and in the middle of that flag was a white flower sorrounded by green Vines
Everyone raised there weapon and they scream back at him
Then door of the Church slowly opened and i walked outside and behind , Gearor, Lunara, Bokkon Yooto and Aurthor follow back and with a smile on my face i said
"Bring it on"
