Duke stood there silently without uttering a word . he was too shocked to tell something
" could you pls explan this Duke orstan, what is the meaning of copying others work"
The teacher said in cold tone . Duke didnt said anything .
" why so quite now ?, why did you copy his work uhh!! Taking orphans like you was indeed a mistake you all dont need pity but strictness . Detention now!!"
Duke flinched at his teachers words and quietly went to an empty classroom with out saying anything . He was so sad and scared he wanted to cry but couldn't. He sat in one of the sit wandering why it has to be him suffering all this why cant he have family like others . Tears started to fall down his cheek .
In this world most of the people are not orphans . Most family dont abandon thier child for any reason because they need heirs to succeeded thier family line . That's why even if there are 10 kids they have to grow then under thier care so the best one can take title of the head of family. But in really poor family they cant afford to rise many children so they abandon them , many poor single mother also get fed up and give up on their child or if the parents of the child die and the parents are low castes the children are directly given to orphanage.
In the Duke case it was different nobody knew his parents and he was found in the backyard of the orphanage. So he was considered as low caste like every orphan in school too .
Life was a harsh game for duke . The only way to escape it was to become a high class enchanter in his generation.
Duke sitting alone in the class decided to become a enchanter no matter what
" i have to ... prove my worth they will regret treating me like this !" Said duke while clenching his hand.
