Patron of Stars: Architect of My Destiny (Part 5)

After that, we went to a fancy living room. Jake decided to talk with me together with Asvin, the doctor that is an expert in healing magic. Before heading to another room, I found Elijah running around in the corridor. 

"Elijah! Mind your manner" I glare at him and he immediately slows down to walk. 

"I'm sorry brother" Elijah apologized, but Jake and Asvin just laughed it out. 

"It's fine. That's what a kid would do. I don't mind it" Jake said with a smile on his face.

I let Elijah do it on his own and reminded him to keep manners in someone else's house.

While in the room, I sat together with Jake and Asvin. 

The atmosphere feels a little bit intense. 

To begin our conversation, I started to open up my stories on how my journey is to find my missing parents that I told may be at the Capital. I make a lie that I live in Grayscot village and met with a good healer a long time ago.

Asvin continued to ask and hear my story about how I know about healing magic.

"So, the one who taught me is Lady Stewart," I began. "She showed me the basics, and I figured out the rest after several practice sessions." I recounted my experiences with Lady Ellis, who had taught me about magic.

I told them about Ellis who has taught me about magic.

"If you don't mind me asking," Asvin inquired, "are you only proficient in healing magic, or do you have other elemental attributes as well?"

I wondered if he was talking about my ability to conjure other elements. For humans, we are gifted with the magic of five elements; fire, water, wind, earth, and lightning. But for a deviant, there is only a certain person who can have other abilities.

Suddenly, Elijah came in as he listened to our conversation. I was surprised.

"Brother is awesome. He can shoot wind and rock," Elijah chimed in, carelessly revealing my abilities.

I glanced at Elijah, who had unwittingly spilled my secret.

"What?!" Asvin and Jake exclaimed simultaneously, shocked by the revelation.

"You have healing magic and dual elements?!" Jake asked, astonished. He confirmed that he vividly remembered my magic during the battle. Elijah has made him affirm what Jake has seen.

I chuckled nervously. "That's true, but I can only control them. I haven't learned to conjure them like people on this continent do."

…

From the insight that was given by The Arbiter, there are 5 continents in this world, Mundus Novus.

Each continent has their own unique way of magic. There are some people practicing magic by using a spell to cast it. From the word, it is easier to imagine and convey it into magic. But some would only know how to control it like me. 

Here is the information that I have learned:

Esperon: The continent of Hope - Derived from the Spanish word "esperanza," meaning hope. Amara: The continent of Love - Derived from the Latin word "amor," meaning love. Veritas: The continent of Integrity - Latin for truth and integrity. Feywind: The continent of Luck - "fey," magical and mystical creatures, "wind" luck on the winds of fate. Nefarion: The continent of the devil - 'nefarious' the land of the devil dwells in the darkness. The  Eldertide: Whispers of the Ancient Tree - The center of the world also known as the "World of Tree". Paradise: Giant's Dominion Island - A colossal island where giants roam freely. Constantine: Celestial Haven of Astralus - A floating castle that moves all around the world. The ten monarchs that protect the world tree. The monarch is a neutral party that was powerful enough to create and destroy this world. All of them are immortal from aging and never seen by humans. But The Arbiter's knowledge let me know about them. But their whereabouts are unknown.

The ten monarchs are:-

The Monarch of Eternity, the Time Keeper - Chronos The Monarch of Destruction, the Dragon King - Drakkarath

iii. The Monarch of Tempest, the Ice Queen - Frostia

The Monarch of Blight, the Eternal Suffer - Moros The Monarch of Radiance, the Light Saber - Luminara The Monarch of Spirit, the Ethereal Queen - Spectra

vii. The Monarch of Earth, the Nature Disaster - Terra

viii. The Monarch of Abyss, the Void Sovereign - Abyssalos

The Monarch of Storms, the Thunder Emperor - Voltar The Monarch of Elements, the Elemental Sovereign - Elementa

Whispering Woods of Sylvanaria: Island of mystical being - Dominated by ancient, sentient forests. It said that the dragon god took shelter there. Mermaid Isle of Sirena Mar: Mermaid island - Island where merfolk dwell beneath the sparkling waves. Volcanic Forge of Ignatia: Smith - Skilled blacksmiths and fire-wielders forge powerful weapons and artifacts. The larva can melt any material to forge high quality weapons. Frozen Haven of Glacia: Iceberg - A land trapped in eternal winter, covered in ice and snow.

It was impressive that I had a good memory to remember all this in my head. That sums up all the continents on Mundus Novus. 

Mundus Novus is three times the size of Earth, teeming with countless races, species, cultures, and beliefs. Each continent is further divided into kingdoms and countries—each with its own languages, traditions, and way of life.

I could say that we are grateful to live in this era where there is not much conflict from back then. The ancient, uncivilized eras were marked by war, fear, and prejudice. Discrimination and chaos reigned until knowledge, reason, and unity began to grow. That said, while we're far from perfect harmony, the world today is a far cry from what it once was.

History only records three great wars that have ever happened. First is the one that all knows about the legends, the war between Gods and Demons. The first great war ignited in the age of creation when the Gods of the Holy Sanctum clashed with the Demons of the Cursed Darkborn. As divine light fought against abyssal corruption, the world teetered on the edge of destruction. The chaos only ended when the first human, Philip Krryunic, the first human, sacrificed himself to seal both realms—separating gods and demons from the mortal world and beginning the era of mankind. 

While the second war is called 'The War of Eldertide' that happens when many sides want to claim the territory of this continent as they believe, whoever owns the world tree can rule this world. The second war erupted when the five continents sought ownership of Eldertide, the World Tree—the heart of magic and life itself. Each nation claimed divine right, and soon the continents fell into all-out war. As magic collapsed and Eldertide neared destruction, the Ten Monarchs descended from Constantine and ended the conflict by decree. The tree was sealed, unclaimable by any race, and the Monarchs' confidants gave their herald, 

"I herald the Eldertide, I herald your end, I herald…Monarchs"

The leader of the monarch with his power to undo the time, rewind it back before the war. Each continent was dumbfounded and not able to utter a word as the monarch meddled in. It is written in history, "The tree is not a throne—it is a warning."

The last war that ever happened is the war between the major races that happened in Esperion continent that was caused from internal conflict between humans, elves, dwarves and orcs. However, the war ended after the establishment of The Unity that ended the war.

…

With that, I tried to explain that I never attend any magic academy, so I only know how to control it.
