《Deck of Cards》The general info
Advertisement
Currently Echo is sitting on the couch in his room and enjoying a cup of coffee. The coffee is without sugar but has a little cream added to it. His maid Karena is standing across him, while having her hands behind her back.
"Karena. Tell me more about this world."he says and she asks.
"Does Master wish to know something specific?"she asks him.
He thinks for a while and asks"Start with the general information about this world."
"Yes Master."she continues"This worlds name is Terra and the land here is divided into seven areas. The areas are called: Deryus, Alseer, Ymor, Eriguv, Feráie, Oherda. The seventh one doesn't have a name and is simply called Death Land."
"Why such a name?"he asks her and she replies"People who have gone there have never returned. And with time it got its name."
"I see."he asks another question"How many gods do you have here?"
"There are two gods: Goddess of Light and Life Sola and Goddess of Dark and Death."she stays quiet.
"Why didn't you say her name?"he asks while being slightly Interested.
"Her name can't be said. It's believed if one were to say her name, a great misfortune would come to him or her. Because of that I and most of the people don't know. She is simply called the Dark Goddess."she says.
'Interesting. Usually i would just think that its a superstition, but seeing that there is magic here, then it may seem possible for a Goddess to bring misfortune. But that doesn't mean I will believe it. Never believed in gods and I won't start now.'
"Okay. Tell me about the races."he tells her and she starts speaking.
"There are six races: Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Beastkins, Demons and Dragons."
"Tell me the basic info about the races."
She starts talking."Humans have the largest population out of all the races. The average lifespan is 80 years. Humans live on the Alseer area of the world."
"Elves have the fifth largest population because of the low birth rate. Elves have pointy ears and their average lifespan is unknown because no elf hasn't died of old age. So it is believed they can live forever. The elf race divides into two: High-Elves and Dark-Elves. The relationship between the two isn't that good because of different believes. They live mostly on Deryus area."
"Beastkins look mostly human but instead of human ears they have animal ears and a tail. Their lifespan is between 100-400 depending on the kin. The four big in number kins are: dog, cat, fox and wolf. With dozens of smaller kins. Their population is the third biggest. Their area is Ymor."

"Dwarves have the fourth biggest population and they live in Eriguv area. They are shorter and stubbier versions of human. They live up to 300 years."
"The race with the second largest population are demons. They live in Oherda area. Because there are so many different species of demons, there isn't any specific trait that only they. Some demons have horns, other tails. Few look like humans but with a weird eye colour. Their age also varies with race and it is believed that the youngest a demon dies is 150 years."
"As for dragons, not much is known about them beside that they live in Feráie area which itself is separated with by The Ocean. They are believed to be very old."
She finishes introducing the races and he says"Okay. So tell me about magic."
"There are eight elemental magic types and uncountable number of non-elemental magic types. Elemental magics are fire, water, wind, earth, dark, light, lighting and nature. As for non-elemental the most common are body reinforcement and mana shield."
Echo progresses everything she just said and remembers it. After everything is remembered he asks"Talk about the currency?"
"For currency we use coins. One copper is smallest and gold coin is the biggest. Hundred copper is worth one silver and hundred silver worth one gold coin."she answers him.
"Thanks. That's all for now. Leave."he says and she bows before leaving the room.
He finishes his cup and puts it back onto the table. He gets up from the couch and walks over to the window to look outside. He sees the same garden, but this time there is someone in the garden, wearing a beautiful dress.
Because he is bored, he opens the window and climbs outside. He climbs down a few meters, before jumping down and landing on the grass with roll. He gets onto his feet quickly and brushes off any grass he had stuck on him.
As he is nearing the girl in the garden, two spears appear in front of his neck.
'Where the fuck did they come from. They just fucking appeared suddenly. Camouflage magic?'
Even though two spears are only a centimeter away from his throat, the expression on his face doesn't chance at all and just looks at the girl, who now has gotten up and looks at him.
'It isn't the first princess. Maybe some other princess or maybe a princes wife. Because he hasn't seen a prince doesn't mean that there isn't one in this kingdom. She also may be a kings wife or concubine. Too many choices who she really is?'
"Who are you and how did you get into the Royal Garden. The guards wouldn't let you pass."

"Asking a my identity without introducing yourself first. What a rude little girl you are."he says and the spears immediately are moved closer to his throat. A little closer and the blade would cut into his neck.
"You still have attitude even when you have a weapon against his throat."she says with an arrogant voice.
'Okay. Escape route: make a backwards roll and run towards the wall. I can make the climb in five seconds and after that I should be safe. All of this would take me all together eleven seconds. Probably enough time to get hit by magic, which these guards defiantly know. If they weren't wearing armor, I could beat them up, but they are wearing it. So that is no go.'
"I'm not afraid to die."he says. Hr could easily say who he is, but he doesn't want to say, because right now he isn't bored. Even though he could be killed easily.
"Okay. Kill-."she is cut off by an another voice."What is going on here?"
This voice is familiar and it belongs to the queen.
"Mother. I was just going to deal with this intruder."answers the girl.
'So she is a princess.'
"Stand down you two. He isn't a intruder."she says and Immediately the spears are removed and the guards disappear.
'Seriously. What the fuck is up with the guards in white armor. The only noise that I habe heard them making is when they are walking and even then it's quiet. They remind me me when I was young but less human.'
"Mother. Who is he then?"she asks him.
"If you would have been at the throne room it at the feast, you would have seen him. He is one of the Summoned Heroes."Says the queen to her daughters.
"So what is his job then? Probably something useless."she says with an arrogant voice while directing the question to her mother.
"It's none of your business."answers Echo and turns around while saying"This is boring now. I'm out."
"You bastard. You dare to act like this in front of me."she says to herself but before she could start doing anything, her mother says"Don't even think about it, Alyssa. He may have attitude, but he also seems to have strength to back it up. So let it go."
"But mother. She was acting rudely in front of me, a second princess."she complains to her mother.
"He acted more rudely in front of your father without fear and he just let it pass. No man will ever like you If you keep being too arrogant."she says.
"I'm sorry. But I still don't like him. He is too rude."she says.
"Let him be. According to your sister he is the most interesting one out of the group."
"Why would she says that?"she asks her and she replies"She hasn't said a reason for that."
"That is strange for sister to keep secrets." "It is. And because of that I am slightly curious about that too. Unlike with others, she didn't say anything about him."
While Echo was walking on the corridor and looking around, he ran into Evelyn, who blushed when she saw him. She didn't know what to do and so she was frozen on the spot, while Echo was walking towards him.
When he was in front of him, he held her shoulders and said"Do you remember last night. Because I remember now. Your moans were pretty lovely and the sensation of your breast was goo-"
He actually didn't remember shit from last night and just decided to tease her out of boredom.
He is cut off when she hits her in the stomach, making him hold onto his stomach.
'She actually has quite a lot of strength.'
"You truly are a bastard. Asshole."she says to him with tears in her eyes.
He coughs a few times before saying"I have been called much worse, so your insults are meaningless, Evelyn."
"What the fuck is actually wrong with you. You act like a complete asshole right now."
"Oooh. So many things that I have to invite you over to a tea party."he continues.
"Seriously what made you like this? Act like a normal guy sometimes and a complete asshole in the next."
"War. That is what happened to me. Growing up in a warzone fucks you up pretty nicely."he says and before walking away he says"Here. They belong to you."
He hands her her panties before walking away, with hands behind his back.
'Did he actually said something about his past or was just lying to me.'she thought. She couldn't understand If he lied or told a truth.
'Seriously. That guy is impossible to understand. He was accepted to our school without having gone to any other schools. It appears that his foster father had a few contacts and got him there. Even though having no previously recorded education, his grades are pretty good.'
She was completely lost regarding how to interact with him now on. On one side she wanted to avoid him because of his attitude and the other wanted to help him to get better. He clearly wasn't well.
She just sighed and kept on walking.
