《Ilario》CHAPTER 5: THE BEGINNING
Advertisement
Ilario went to Queen Agnes’s treehouse after lunch, he saw Queen Agnes and other 2 elves; a woman elf that help Ilario on the kidnaped incident, curved and long brown hair, green eyes, pretty, like a model in warrior suit and a man elf, neat blond hair, green eyes, lean muscle body, handsome, wearing hood in combat style. They both look young, compared to middle twenties of human.
“This is Ms. Lyra and this is Mr. Oliver, the young elves that I told you yesterday, they will be in charge of training the physical body, fighting including hunting in elves style,” said Queen Agnes.
“This is Ilario, as you may already knew some of his story, please train him seriously,” said Queen Agnes and left.
Lyra and Oliver led Ilario to the training ground, there were archery targets, the archery set, swords and dagger knives; use for training.
“Start with warming your body up, run around the training ground 10 laps” said Lyra.
“Just that!” Ilario thought himself, it was basic training anyway, he run without word; 10 laps finished, he did not feel any exhausted, it might be the power that Athena Goddess given him.
“It looks easy for you, we will make it harder,” said Lyra and turn her head to Oliver for some signal.
Oliver came with the stone bracelets, he putted it on Ilario’s wrists and ankles; the estimated of weight was around 1 pound each.
“I’m a five years old boy, how could you do this to me?” Ilario thought himself but have to accept all kind of training without any complaint.
“Another 10 laps,” said Lyra.
Ilario finished another 10 laps, this time his body sweated, he felt like he got warm up seriously but It was just start. Oliver handed Ilario wooded sword and told him to practice as same as his postured for 50 hits while wearing bracelets; his arms and body were aching after finished.
“Could I rest a bit?” Ilario asked, they trained him like the military.
Oliver nodded his head. Ilario sat and rested without move any inch. It was still hard for the child body. Ilario thought that young elves might be friendlier and easier to talk to, but he was wrong of thinking in that way, he just observed them, he afraid that the training would be harder if they got annoying from him.
Oliver putted several of small wood logs on the ground, 1 foot distance for each, total long distance around 3 meters.
“Run across it 10 rounds by not touching the wood logs, it would help your movement more agility. If you touch any of wood logs before 10 rounds, then start again until you could run without touch any of it continually for 10 rounds,” said Oliver.

Ilario was running carefully but failed countless times, he still wearing stone bracelets, it was tortured of training. 2 hours passed, he was finally succeeded and lying on the ground, he could not move his body and thought that he might die from this kind of training.
“It’s enough for today. Could you walk back?” asked Oliver while taken off the bracelets.
“No, I could not. I need some rest.” Ilario answered without caring much, he thought that they might leave me here but suddenly his body got lift by Oliver.
“Err...What are you doing? I just need some more rest,” said Ilario surprisingly.
Oliver smiled and carried Ilario back to Ms. Carina’s treehouse. “He smiled.” Ilario thought that they did not friendly with humans.
“Thank you. See you tomorrow,” said Ilario sincerely, he still could not move himself much, his body was aching hard. He was thinking of power that could heal himself while he was half sleeping, some light aura lighted up over his body; he felt no more of aching. He was surprised and just remembered; Athena Goddess told him that Helius got healing magic power, that why he could be healed himself. Thanks to the goddess, it was very useful power.

The next day, Ilario went to Queen Agnes’s Treehouse as the schedule. He thought that Mr. Mercury will teach him today but Queen Agnes was waiting for him.
“Good Morning,” said Ilario.
“Hello. How was your training yesterday?” Queen Agnes asked.
“The afternoon practice was really exhausted and my body was seriously aching,” said Ilario.
“Yesterday, I felt magic power, the same feeling of Helius, is it you?” asked Queen Agnes.
“Yes, my body was aching hard, I thought of healing power, the light aura appeared and the aching were gone.” Ilario explained honestly.
“I thought that you need to learn all of magic theories before learning of magic power release and controlling but you could have activated magic power naturally, I have not felt of power exploded at that time. It would be better for you to start to practice magic controlling; in case that you could not control some type of magic and made it explode from overwhelm power,” said Queen Agnes, smiled encouragingly.
“Today I will teach you myself, I would like to know how much you could control the power, I will adjust your lesson again,” said Queen Agnes while leading Ilario to the training ground.
“As you already know the basic, try to activate the magic power. Think of the power that circulated in your body after you ate the gold apple, do you still remember that feeling?” Queen Agnes asked.

“Yes, I felt some kind of energy circulated inside my body that time” said Ilario.
“Great, gather that power on your hand and released that energy slowly and active water magic, like this,” said Queen Agnes while lifted her hand and made small ball of water.
Ilario concentrated and gathered the magic power and think of small ball as same as Queen Agnes did, the water slow show up and shape to be a small ball. It was succeeded, he could be activated it.
“Good, I think that you have talent, I understood why Athena Goddess chosen you. The young elves spent 3 months at least to control their power. Then, try make it bigger like this one” said Queen Agnes while activated the big ball of water.
Ilario concentrated and activated the bigger ball as Queen Agnes activated, it was also succeeded.
“Try to make it freeform, like this one,” said Queen Agnes while activated water magic in shape of hummingbird.
This time Ilario activated but its shape was different from Queen Agnes a bit, he thought the details of his imagination might be different.
“Was it failed?” Ilario asked.
“No, it could not say that it was failed. I think that you might knew the key when activates the magic. First, gathers power, second, imagination, final, activates. You did a good job. One important thing that you need to know, magic controlling came from the factor of emotion; the more you calm, the more effective of power controlling, especially when you activate the advance magic power,” said Queen Agnes.
“How could the magic power be exploded?” Ilario asked curiously, he would like to be more careful.
“There were causes from too much power against inside the weak body, emotion, stimulate factors, mind and consciousness. For now, you were on stage of too much power in body that could not handle it all, that why I told you to be careful about emotional. Do not mix and activate 2 or more types of magic power together until you reach 8 years old, it could make your magic power explode easily, activate one by one for the time being,” said Queen Agnes.
“Do you want to try other element types?” asked Queen Agnes.
“Yes, but before that, could you please explain more details of light Magic Power? What kind of abilities could it be activated? And what is the different between light and holy? As my knowledge, it was look like the same kind of power.” Ilario asked curiously.
“Light Magic Power, its abilities were ‘Solis’, the power of sunlight that could burn all of creatures, rid of the Darkness Magic Power; ‘Visibilis’, the ability that could see through all of Darkness Core and Energy; ‘Cursus’, the ability that could boost up Stamina and Magic Power; ‘Ardeat’, the ability of wavelength burning, the double power of Solis, Thunder and Fire to make a huge burn and length damage in one blow. There were 4 main abilities, and as you might already knew, you could develop more of magic power and mix the elements freely. —— The different between Holy, Light and Fire, I added fire to explain together, each type has its own abilities but these magic types have same ability of defend against the darkness power in different level; The Holy Magic, its power could Purify the Dark Magic Power, it means completely destroy by purify both of Dark Magic Core and Dark Magic Energy; The Light Magic Power, its power could burn the Dark Magic Core completely but there were also chance of remaining some of Dark Magic Energy; The Fire Magic Power, its power could burn and fight with Dark Magic Creatures by make it weak but it could not burn both of Dark Magic Core and Dark Magic Energy completely.” explained Queen Agnes.
“Before you activate the Light Magic Power, practice more of Fire Magic Power controlling, you need to reach 8 years old before practicing Light Magic Power because Light and Fire could be mixing unintentionally and leading to power explode. Do you want to try Fire Magic next?” asked Queen Agnes.
“Yes,” said Ilario, he felt a bit worry of power mixed unintentionally. He calmed himself and try to focus, thinking of small fire ball and activated but the result was big fire ball instead.
“Whoa… I have to be more careful,” thought Ilario surprisingly, but Queen Agnes caught up that he could not control Fire power because the power was too much for him to handle at the first time.
“It looks like you need to practice and control your Fire Magic Power carefully, make it smaller and practice until you could activate small fire ball and small shape of creature freely, if you could activate in small shape and a lot of details, that means, you succeed of controlling. You may take time to practice slowly, do not rush and overdo it yourself,” said Queen Agnes, smiled encouragingly.
Ilario activated Wind and Earth Magic Power next, there was no problem, he could control its power smoothly.
