Chapter 1 - Before He Was Named

They say in that era—Power only belonged to those who obey but he did not belive it. It was an era of destruction, where living peacefully was a mere myth. The Astrals ruled the world, not directly but through the greed of humans, they say the more blessed one is by an Astral the more powerful he becomes. The strong ruled the weak—this was called nature. But there existed a will that refused to accept it, a will that wanted to end this corrupted era and establish a new era where peace rules over everything.

Ashvale – The Veiled Age

"Don't run you already chose how this ends" said the corrupted, "I won't let you kill my son" the mother barged in trying to protect her son, then suddenly the corrupted swung his sword, the mother gave her very best to protect her son shielding him with herself.

But destiny had chosen a different router for her that day, the sword didn't hit her. At the very last moment a young boy who seemed frail saved her by kicking the corrupted's hand. His presence felt like he wasn't blessed yet,It seemed as if he were weaker than the women, he was just a mere boy with long hairs, a katana and a black attire. What the woman thought turned out to be true, as soon as the corrupted did his second blow using his astral powers "Blazing Thrust" the boy couldn't block it because he didn't have any blessings, it stabbed the boy right through his torso, this gave birth to a moment of horror.

But the boy chose to wake up, "I spared you once, but I won't do that mistake again" said the corrupted. "I may die today but I don't accept not to be the reason for saving one's life". "Such words belong only to those with strength, which for you shall have none" said the corrupted. "I may lack strength," he said, "but I possess what you never cultivated—will."

The corrupted glances at his sword just to see it's gone. The corrupted looks at the boy and "Clack" the sword was broken into pieces. "To balance my weakness of astrality I have trained to my fullest".

The boy then challenges the corrupted for a hand to hand duel. The corrupted who lost all his astrality with his blessed sword has no choice but to accept. "You shall die" said the corrupted charging at the boy, "That remains to be proven" said Aeviel.
