The child gifted with powerful magic

Chapter 13: The King's Symbol



3 people walk in a grand hallway, they all look nervous as they approach a huge door at the end. When they open it a throne room waits in front of them. A man sat on the throne with a small girl on his lap. The girl has 2 different colored eyes. One red, the other grey.

"Pawpaw, are you gonna punish them?"

"Yes," He walks up to the three and grabs one by their face. "ERIC!"

"MASTER! WE- WE tried!, W-w-w" Eric stuttered as the man smashed his head into the ground creating cracks. "WHAT USE ARE YOU TO ME?" He squeezed Eric's jaw with an enraged expression as the other 2 watched in fear.

As the chaos went on, the sound of walking came. "These 3 have failed you master, but I. I have succeeded. I honestly don't see how I am below-" The man smashed the person into the wall by his jaw. "SUCCEEDED? YOU CALL WHAT HAPPENED A SUCCESS?"

The cocky person's eyes widened. "All you did was alert them, but even then you failed, because you didn't get the jewel!"

"But Master I do! See" He reached in his pocket and tried to thrust a dagger into the Master, but he caught and broke the dagger with his bare hands and looked at the cocky person.

"I want everyone to watch. This is what happens when you betray me, or show no use." He started to tighten his grip on the cocky person's jaw and slowly started crushing it as the man screamed in pain. Till he crushed his jaw completely and threw the carcass to the side and looked at everyone. "Now, let us redo this failure shall we?"

Everyone nodded, but there was a chuckle among them. It was the girl. "Hehe! Looks like I'll have a nice meal for today, right pawpaw?"

"Indeed little one" He walked up to her and patted her head. He looked at everyone and said, "We'll restart this."

Kian sat on his bed thinking about the events that happened. He got some divine-like spells, reversed time after seeing everyone die. He just promised to marry 2 different women, it was all too much for him.

He heard a knock and prayed it wasn't one of the girls as he opened the door, but when he opened it, he saw the man. The man who gave him the spells.

"O, child gifted with powerful spells. May the world fall to your will. May you grow strong enough to conquer all that you see."

"What?"

"A king must fall, no matter what. Whether it be, overthrown or death. Another shall take his place as the new ruler, may it be his own kind of an outside force of his own blood. The kings are slowly falling child, but it is your choice to take the throne or leave it for another."

"I don't understand!"

The man slowly started to turn into dust "Choooose"

"Why do you guys always leave me before explaining?!" Kian sat on the ground and closed his eyes, but he heard humming and looked and saw a glow on his hand. He looked closer and a symbol was in his hand. It glowed a Gold color.

"Is this a new spell? No, this has to be an ability… or…" Kian contemplated for a bit before deciding to go outside and try and see what it was.

"Okay… let's try just activating something first"

He raised his hand and tried to put out something, anything, but nothing happened. He sighed, but then he got an idea. He winded his hand back and threw it out and multiple golden balls appeared, they seemed spirit-like. He walked up to them and they started spinning around slowly closing into one other and once they came in contact a bright light came.

When the light dissipated, Kian saw a woman with white hair and golden eyes. She looked at him with a soft face. Her clothing seemed adventurer-like.

"So you the gifted child?"

"Gifted child?"

"Do you not know?"

Kian looked at her with confusion "How would I have known?"

The woman sighed "My name is Larissa. I am your helper." She walked up to him and grabbed his hand lifting it up. "This symbol is called the Kings Symbol. With it, you may leave your mark on the world itself… that is if you get that powerful."

"How do I use it?"

"Well it's not you use it, it's how you use the things within it. You see the Kings Symbol is a multi ability holder. It holds multiple abilities that you can and will learn. Sadly I cannot teach you one yet. Such a tragedy." She looked at him with a smirk. "I'll give you a hint to one though… one of your friends has an Innate ability close to it." The woman's eyes glowed and she touched his face. "We shall meet again, Kian!"

Then a massive boom came making all the trees rustle. Kian just kept staring at his hand. The King's symbol.

It was a snowy night, a group of travelers were walking through it. They had 2 dead and more sick. The leader of the group walked ahead. He was a strong man, he wasn't big, but he was lean. His hair was white and his eyes were grey.

As they walked they saw someone in the distance. "HALT!" The leader yelled. The person started walking towards them and stopped just ahead of them.

The man had a snow coat on, that covered him up. He looked up and his eyes glowed red. "I've been waiting for this opportunity"

"Have you?" The leader said

"It's a cold night, no?"

"Indeed it is, we were trying to find shelter to stay warm"

"Is that so…?"

The leader secretly grabbed his dagger, but the man saw and sighed.

"No need to be alarmed. I'm not here to fight, I just wanna talk. Just you and me"

"About what?"

The man smirked "The new 4 royals, who shall usurp the 4 kings thrones."

"They are already here?"

The man nodded "but don't get scared now… they won't beat us. At least, they won't beat me" The man's face grew grim. "I'll leave you and your people alone… for now" the man turned to leave. "Oh… and don't you dare think of fighting me. I'll massacre everyone here if I have to. Ta ta" The man walked away.

The leader sighed and looked at his people "Let us go!" As they walked the leader felt that something was off. He looked down the mountain and saw a bunch of red glowing eyes and his eyes widened. "DEMONS!!!"

The demons charged forward attacking everyone strong or helpful first. The leader noticed this and prepared to run over to them, but then he heard footsteps behind him. He turned only to see a huge demon behind him with a Warhammer. It raised it above its head and brought it down with full force.
