Sinister Knight: Dawn Of A Sinful Calamity

In a completely different world, one far removed from that which hosted Selric, a high-level world to be precise, on a planet called Plume, a 17-year-old boy blinked open his bright blue eyes, a smile on his face as he hurriedly got to his feet.

With how bright the boy's smile was, one would think that he lived a life of comfort, but the worn out mat which he woken up from, his bare feet and the creaking walls of the room he had been sleeping in told a less luxurious story.

Hurriedly grabbing a red staff with beautiful carvings on it from the side, the boy ran out of the room, immediately arriving outside where the weather was chill and only half of the sun had begun peeking out.

The boy looked left and right restlessly and then with a shrug he burst forward and began running through the grounds of the monastery, his destination its gate.

Despite the cold stone floor and dewed grasses, he passed over, the boy moved swiftly and gracefully without bother, his eyebrows raising when he went past several houses.

"I know I'm up early, but how can there be no one awake at the moment.

I just hope the gate is not locked."

With a little frown on his face, the boy kept on moving forward, his footsteps slowing down when he reached the gate of the monastery, his mood was about to go down, but then he noticed the really high walls of the building and with a smile he charged up, his swift figure turned into a blur and when he got close to the wall his legs bent and he shot into the air, successfully soaring over the wall.

One would think that with his new height, he might be a little panicked considering how he had done this impromptu, but then when the boy reached the peak of his flight, he spun the staff in his hand, the action making a gentle wind pick up around him and began carrying him forward.

The wind rushed from his head to his feet like it was a stream of water, helping him glide over several acres of land as he slowly descended.

To stabilize himself in the air, the boy strapped his staff to his back and had his hands spread out and facing the earth.

It looked like what he was doing was a practised technique but the several hidden eyes at the monastery which had been watching him knew it was just another impromptu technique of his.

This was the kind of talent or perhaps monster Selric Zayen was.

After several months of being at the monastery, today he was allowed to go see his family.

With a hum and instinctive adjustments to the wind he had flowing around him, Selric glided down to the ground enjoying the rush of the wind over his face, but then when he noticed that it was getting weaker, a frown marred his face and the next second his eyes brightened as he got an idea and soon sent himself shooting through the air a loud, the wind howling in his ears.

Experimenting and figuring out ways to keep himself up in the sky, Selric remained airborne, arriving above his destination within 30 minutes thanks to his travel by flight.

"Shame that I'll forget how to do this "Selric thought and truly this was one of the shortcomings that kept him from advancing and entering the unbound realm, his laziness and his mind which was very poor at storing information on techniques he had performed, whether learned or improvised.

For his descent from the sky, Selric let himself descend with a whirlwind circling him.

As Selric got closer to the ground the whirlwind spun harder and harder but unfortunately, for some reason, at a point the whirlwind became completely ineffective and he fell uncontrollably out of the sky.

Thanks to how much mana, Selric had pumping out of him, when he dropped from the sky and landed on the ground, the loud sound of a collision rang out.

"Damn it, Dad is so going to kill me." He chuckled, looking up and around to see if he had been caught.

Falling from the sky, Selric had landed in an extremely wide compound, one with white and blue themed walls and 7 ancient-styled buildings within it.

"That girl, even with this much noise she didn't notice me. I need to punish her, it seems she's been slacking in her training."

Of the seven buildings within the compound, the one Selric had landed beside, stood farthest from the rest, this giving it a bit of isolation and it was this building that held the compound's training rooms.

If Selric remembered correctly which he sometimes didn't, she woke up early every morning earlier than even he had today to begin her training, and with how excellent of a ranker, she was, one would think that his abrupt and noisy landing would have already brought her out to check the situation.

"Not even that her cute maid girl came out" Selric thought as he walked towards the building remembering the blue-haired girl, he had tried hitting on some years ago only to be rebuffed by his sister and sent away.

"We could have had such a great love" Selric thought but then he paused as he surprisingly saw the face of this blue-haired girl just as he climbed the 20 steps that led to the entrance of the building and stared at the wide hall inside it.

"Ehhh Juin, when did u develop interest in putting on horror makeup," Selric asked cocking his head to the side as he stared at the girl up ahead.

Within the hall, there were several pillars which reached up to the ceiling and beside one of the pillars was Juin.

The girl knelt beside the pillar and had her head resting on its hard surface, a thick red liquid having been poured over her face and bare arms.

"Hey I didn't know there was liquid makeup, you girls just keep on getting more and more innovative huh," Selric said taking a few quick steps forward, pausing once more when he was just a step from the girl who was or had been just an age younger than him.
