Newly-born Silver Race (Part 1 of 2)

A white-winged bird-type magical pet landed in front of me with a letter for which I had been waiting a long time.

"It's finally here?"

The letter's contents were quite simple—there were only two sentences: "I took care of things for you. The official invitation is inside, so hurry and come as soon as you can."

The letter was a reply from my old friend and classmate Kaid. It was only a matter of time before I went to the Cloud Tower in the Mage Country—what was really important was how I went. I would receive treatment that would differ depending on whether or not I had been invited.

That was why I had written to Kaid a while back, asking him to help me out. I divulged a bit about what was going on so that the Cloud Tower would officially send me an invitation.
