Chapter 1
Well, it did start at the point when I was 10 and at that time I was a new student of Astoniara Magic Academy where my father is the Headmaster there. I was happy at first but it started turning downhill from the first day of school onwards.......
"Hey! Check this out! We have a new kid!" One of the bullies yelled out and the members of the gang smirk.
"Oh look at that kid! Such a cutie don't you think?" one of the female gang member cooed.
"What is your name kid?" One of the members of the gang asked me and I answered him.
"A-Aaron E-Eosphoros." I trembled while answering the older guy's question and he smirk while patting my head.
"Hey Aaron. Wanna hang out with us in after class?" One of the members ask gently seeing I am scared of him and I nod.
"Okay. See you there at the magic training room. Don't be late!" That guy waved at me cheerfully but I never knew what was going to happen......
---After class---
"Hey kid." I see the same guy waving at me and I nod shyly, walking towards him.
"Hey man, let's teach this kid how to fight." The guy nod and he teach me some of the basics but some of the men in the gang began to surround me and I couldn't fight back.
"Hey! Look at that kid! A coward!" All the members of the gang laughed and kick at me hard. I tried to back away until I couldn't and I felt the tension in my stomach building up. I let it all out in a shout and all the man who was the nearest to me all thrown into the wall and fell unconscious. The whole magic training area suddenly turned quiet and I noticed someone pulled at my hand roughly.
"Boy! You know that was forbidden magic! Why did you do it?!" I shook my head, trying to explain that I couldn't control it but the instructor didn't care about my explanation.
"Let's see the Headmaster now." I tried to wriggle free of the restraining grip of the head of disciplinarian instructor but to no avail. I gave up struggling and let her drag me up to the Headmaster's study.
---Headmaster's Study---
"Headmaster, this boy here is using forbidden magic." The head of the disciplinarian instructor told my father what had happened during the time after school and my father looked at me, disappointed at my inability to control my magic.
"Thank you, Minara. I will take it from here." the woman named Minara nodded and she left the study leaving my father and I in his study. My father started to become angry and I know based on the movement he had shown before.
"Why did you do it?! I told you to keep it in wraps! This is for your own good, Aaron and never forget that you are the only one that has that power!" My father stopped to catch his breath and he did the thing I did not expect him to do.
"Aaron, 20 points is deducted from your assessment marks of your mid term assessment." He broke the news to me softly and I felt tears fell from my face as I had felt betrayed from him.
"But dad....." He hold up his hand and sent me out of his study. I sat in front of his door crying and cursing at the gods as more tears flowed out onto my face and I couldn't stop it. At that time I knew that how bad society could be for someone like me but it became worse since then. No one wanted to talk to me and no one wanted to be my friend as I sat alone during class, in the cafeteria and even at training. Many teachers complained that I lack the energy to study magic as if that I just want to die and I did feel that way as no one wanted to help me, no one wanted to be my friend, no one wanted to go near me as I was different. I stayed like this until I was 12 and at that time, my fortune changed to the worst.
