The whirling sound of fan spinning, humming as a white noise. Birds chirping could be heard as warm morning light lightly touches my skin.

Laying down on bed, I turn the page of the novel I am reading.

'Arseus called out to his saviour, Leaia. A blinding light shines, silence fall as all allies and enemies alike watch the pillar of light protruding in the middle of the battlefield.

There. Stood the figure of a man with golden hair, armed with red armor adorned with golden markings. In his hand, the divine sword Leaia. Divine. That's how everyone describes the aura emanating from the figure. As if God Himself has descended.

'Enough!'. Raising his sword, he shouted out of frustration. The pillar of light shines even brighter. And a wave of light explodes as the wave travels through the battlefield. Everyone stood still watching the figure. Surprised, in awe, and some are afraid. Only he knew how tired he felt. Tired of war. Tired of losing his companions. Tired of constantly fighting in wars that brings nothing but pain and destruction.

He swings his sword heavily towards the enemy forces and what followed is a beam of light so strong the very ground trembles. Total annihilation. Those hit by the light are obliterated to dust leaving nothing but a barren land of sands. Few seconds in and one shout is heard. A shout of victory. And from the single voice, everyone followed and starts cheering; shouting for victory.

But for Arseus, this is just another useless bloodbath. And he knows there will be another. The light in his eyes slowly lose part of its life. He had stained his hands with thousands of human blood yet again. But he can do nothing but fight.'

I place my bookmark on the page and close the book placing it on the side of my bed. I sit up and slightly stretches. A yawn escaped from my mouth.

'ahhhh-hhaaaa'

I then went to the kitchen, turning on the electronic kettle. Taking my mug from the rack, and taking a tea bag from the small cabinet.

I watched the scenery from my window while waiting for the water to boil. Tall white buildings erected in the surrounding. The long road is everly busy, lined with cars. The city is bustling with life as usual.

'Click'. I turn my head towards the kettle and pour the boiling water into my mug. White vapor escaped from the hot water. Putting in some sugar. Slight stirring; I hold the mug in hand and blowing it to cool it down faster.

As I bring the mouth of the mug my lips, a sharp pain throbs in my head.

'ngghh!'

My vision slowly turns blurry. I lose my grip causing the mug in my hand to fall and shatters as a pool of hot water form and touches my feet.

'Ahh!' as my feet burned, I fall over.

Thud!

...

Darkness surrounds me. I start to be conscious.

'I think I passed out.' I start to recall what happens. I remembered falling over after having a sharp pain in my head.

Slowly, I realised the pressure around my body. And I heard muffled sounds as if someone screaming.

!!?

'I am being pushed by something!'. I start to feel as if I am passing through a small tight passage. Soon enough.. A bright light welcomes me. I closed my eyes instinctively and slowly trying to adapt to the bright light. I opened my eyes and sees a face of an old lady with brown eyes and some wrinkles on her skin.

'Lady Julia! It's a male! Congratulations!' The old lady speaks to the woman next her excitedly shouted.

A guy who looks in his 50s, with dark crimson eyes and long dark hair came to view and spoke.

'Hmm... Our family have another suitor.'

'He looks just like you, Julia'.

The lady holding me move me towards the other lady laying on bed. The lady, named Julia has a silver hair and a deep blue eyes. She is very beautiful. Her eyes looks like jewels adorned with silvers. She looks like an enchantress.

I realised what situation I am in. I was... Reborn. No, I was reincarnated. From the looks of it. I was reincarnated into a rich family given the luxurious looks the people who re supposed to be my parents are.

The guy with black hair hold my forearm, caressing a small birthmark located there. I noticed that the birthmark doesn't look like a birthmark. It's definitely a symbol. A circle with a fan shape with 5 crowns in the middle.

''Thank you Julia for giving me another heir".

The old man standing next to her spoke.

''It's you that give us this boy" Julia said.

'What nonsense', I thought. Being a heir? From his words, I can assume I am in some sort of a rich family in a patriarchal society that have males as the head of the family or something.

But it's a random chance of 50/50 to be a male or female, technically and scientifically speaking. And being a male or female does not makes someone a good leader or heir automatically.

I was taken to a baby crib. Gently the old lady put me down into the soft sheets. It's a bit cold, but it's fine. The cribs sway left and right as the old lady pushes the crib and letting it move.

'this is nice' I thought. I started to feel sleepy. And, while thinking about my past, I slowly descend into slumber.

***

7 years later.

I figured that my family is actually from a high ranking noble.

My father is Duke Augustus Bloodfallen of the Bloodfallen clan.

All the branch families are under blood fallen clan, however only the children of the main bloodfallen family, which is my family, can use the surname of Bloodfallen.

The chosen heir and their family also can use the surname Bloodfallen. However, the children of those that aren't picked as heirs can't.

Apparently there is a reason for that distinction. To explain that, the world that I reincarnated is actually a world with magic! I realised this when I was strolling around the mansion and sees my brother, holding up his hands and sees a bright circle with unknown symbols shows up in front of him.

The tall lady with violet eyes-his instructor- can be seen guiding him. And soon a the red circle grows brighter and a ball of flame shoots out from the magic circle and hit the target. As the ball of flame reaches the target it explodes and burns the target to smithereens.

I was in awe. I can't believe I too can use magic someday!

Coming back to the significance of family name, apparently the main family have more mana and talent than others.

And the chosen heir, can inherit magic unique only to the main Bloodfallen family.

The Bloodfallen clan are clans that specialises in Fire magic, which is the most destructive magic in terms of raw power. The family have a rich history and key figure ancestors which the clan looks up to.

The greatest of them all, the first ancestor is named Arthur Bloodfallen. The greatest fire mage in history of the continent. History says him alone have ended war with neighbouring kingdom by using the greatest fire magic he created, called 'Morning Star'. Replicating the power of the Sun itself or so they say. Shooting the miniature sun towards the centre of the opposing kingdom and completely destroys everything in a big radius.

Stories says, thousands of years ago, what left of the land were hot magmas. As time goes by and it cools, the land becomes hard layers of rocks. This is why today the land now is known as the Granitisia, because of how the land have hard rock layer called granit few meters underground. While they aren't good at agriculture or forestry, they have abundant source of jewels and magic crystals.

This year, I will have a Coming of Age ceremony, in which all children of all people go through. While the normal citizen usually go through the ceremony at age of 12, since I am a noble, I go through them at the age of 7. Nobles get to receive early education in Preparation Schools, although commoners also can join them.

I heard a priest will come to the mansion and will do an appraisal to check my attributes. And I will start receive magic training after the ceremony onward. I am very excited to learn magic especially.

I mostly heard all of this from my mother and maids. I rarely sees my new father. Given that he have a high position he must be busy.

Today will be the day I have coming of age ceremony. The priest come the large living room, decorated with unique and luxurious golds, silvers and crystals. The priest hold a gold staff and a translucent crystal ball.

Gently, he placed the ball on the small wooden table in front of him with his hands still placed on top of it.

'You may touch the crystal, child' the priest with white beard spoke.

As soon as I touched the crystal, it glows with a bright calming blue. It feels calm, like being in a still lake as soft wind touched my skins. Well, it feels like it.

And immediately I start to see a sort of screen in front of me. It listed my attribute, talents and skills I have.

WOW. I look awesome to be honest. Water attribute with S+? I absolutely love having water attribute. Fire magic is boring anyways.

But then i remember that my family is supposed to be a bloodline that focuses on fire magic. I looked at the priest and I saw sweats dropping down his cheeks.

"How is his talent Sebastian?" Augustus asked the priest.

"H-his talents are incredible." he spoke, with a bit of stutter. Am I that talented?

"But...". While avoiding Augustus gaze, he continued.

"H-he have no fire attribute."

Augustus eyes opened wide, and he crossed his arms while tapping his arm while tapping his finger. He placed his hand on his chin, thinking. He looks... disappointed. And he turns and look at Julia, who too, was clearly shaken.

And he then look at me. With an emotionless face, he spoke.

"This thing brings shame to the family. Get this out of my face."

'Huh?'.

Before I can process any thoughts, suddenly few guards came close to me and grab my arms and harshly pull me, forcing me to go with them. 'F-father? M-mom?' I muttered as I watch father and mother simply stood still as I was being dragged by the guards.
