Chapter 62: Chapter 60: A Kinder Me

"I was... just a normal person once." Mira said in a sad soft voice

She was standing in the middle of nowhere evething was dark only she alone was there all alone,Then she begin to speak

"I remember when magic still felt like wonder"

"I was five years old when I first felt it - that warm, golden pulse in my chest when I healed my scraped knee Mama’s eyes went wide when she saw the cut seal itself. Papa hushed us both, his calloused hands shaking as he knelt before me"

"Mira, my little star," he whispered, "you must never show this to anyone."

But children are terrible at keeping secrets.

By seven, the other kids called me "witch-spawn" and "curse-child" They’d throw stones that left bruises deeper than the marks on my skin. I’d come home with torn dresses and mud-caked hair, and Mama would hug me so tight I could barely breathe.

"Why do they hate me?" I asked once.

Papa’s jaw clenched. "Because fear makes people cruel, my heart. And nothing frightens them more than what they don’t understand."

I was nine when the noble boy saw me healing a wounded sparrow behind the baker’s shop. His scream still echoes in my nightmares.

"Rogue mage! She’s using forbidden magic!"

That night, my parents packed my things with trembling hands. Papa pressed a stolen Academy seal into my palm - still warm from where he’d hidden it against his skin.

"Run to the eastern gates," he said, his voice raw. "Tell them you’re Mira of House Veyne."

Mama kissed my forehead. I remember how her tears tasted - salt and sorrow. "Don’t look back, my star. Never look back."

I didn’t. Because there was no one to look back for....they killed my parents and took there organs in hoping to create another child like me...who could use magic there was no one that was the first time when i kept my promise....to not look back..

Not when the shouting started. Not when the smell of smoke filled the air. I ran until my lungs burned, until my legs gave out. I only stopped when the Academy’s golden gates loomed before me, taller than anything in the slums.

That was the first night I slept on marble floors instead of straw. The first night I was truly alone.

I somehow managed to entered a magic academy where everyone could learn how to use magic but.....

The nobles’ children knew I didn’t belong with them

"Look at her hands," they’d sneer. "Those are servant’s hands."

I learned to hide my magic at first, just like Papa taught me. But the instructors tested us daily, and my power... it wanted to go all out. Like a caged beast rattling my ribs.

When I was twelve, a duke’s son broke my finger during sparring practice. "Oops," he smirked. "Slum rats shouldn’t play with real mages." He said

"Something in me snapped"

Before I realized what I was doing, my magic lashed out - not just healing my finger, but a slash, the slash which contains my rage and Anger, the good thing was that the slash wasn’t that strong at that time, His bones fractured with sickening cracks.

The silence that followed was worse than the screams.

That was the day they started fearing me...that day i was named as the "Witch of the slums"

While the nobles slept on silk sheets, I practiced spells until my nose bled. While they feasted, I memorized ancient tomes by candlelight. Their whispers followed me everywhere:

*"Monster."*

*"Freak."*

*"She’ll tear herself apart."*

Let them talk. Let them say. I didn’t care

By sixteen, I could cut training dummies with a glance. By seventeen, I dueled masters and won. The more they feared me, the harder I trained. Their hatred became my strength.

Until one day....when i was sitting alone in a bench near a park watching the beautiful flowers, a novel boy came towards me and without saying anything he sit beside me and said

"So you are the Great Witch Mira who people are talking about huh?"

I didn’t respond to him i just kept watching the beautiful view, he got angry that i ignored him but then he came near to my ear and wishpear

"I heard you need money to train for the supremes"

My eyes went cold my head bowd a little then he speaks again and said

"You know i can give you money so you ccan become a supreme and complete your dreams"

As he said that i knew what was comming next...

"Come have sex with me then I’ll give you all money you want~"

In that moment most of the girls will scream or run away but for me... that was the only last way...i couldn’t earn that big amount on my own so... this was my plan....i would sell my body....

He smiled as he knew that i wasn’t going to refuse so he stand up and with a smerk he said

"Come to my room tonight"

And just like that.....i let my first time to that guy...so i could climb up in the top

When the former Supreme announced me as- Supreme at eighteen - the youngest in history - I didn’t feel proud.

I felt nothing at all.

Now, standing atop the Grand Spire, I finally let myself remember.

The way Mama hummed while braiding my hair. How Papa’s laugh rumbled like distant thunder. The smell of our tiny home before the flames took it.

A tear falls. It’s the first in years.

"I’m sorry," I whisper to the wind. "I survived. I became strong. But I couldn’t stay... that little girl you loved."

Somewhere below, the city celebrates their new Supreme. They don’t see the hollow thing I’ve become.

Maybe that’s for the best.

The ice around my heart doesn’t hurt anymore.

And that...

That might be the saddest part of all. That’s what i thought but still in this cold heart two people still managed to stay warm....

Sir Gaizon and Shiro...when i first joined The supreme i was still very young..i thought they will treat me same as others... but no... Sir Gaizon became father-like figure to me...he care about me...

"You are still a young girl! Don’t worry we will protect you hahahha isn’t it Shiro" he said while looking at Shiro...

Shiro...i always saw him as a big brother...he never hate me for my coldness... He all care about me....i started feeling like i was at home while being with them....i even decided that after we all retire we will stay together as a family

"A happy family...i would marry a man i would love.. and gave my children’s to Sir Gaizon so they could see him as their grandchildrens..."

"I will see Shiro getting married to the girl he loved.. and as his little sister i would look after them too"

"What a happy family what a perfect life i am going to live!"

That’s what i thought...

Meanwhile back in the Paradise Garden inside the church i still sitting in the top couch thinking then i stand up and said

"Not like we need any plan but still we need to stop them getting here"

Gearor nodded and replied

"Yes those demons can cause Alot of of damage and we don’t want our people to get injured"

Everyone other thinks and nodded but Lunara smiled and jumped up and said

"Don’t worry master!!! I’ll kill All those fucking demons mauhahahja"

They all gave her a wired smile then i looked at her and replied

"No you can’t fight a demon lord"

She looked at me in confusion then i speak again and said

"Demon lord is no odaniry thing...the Shiro guy is almost strong as you or he have done something that can make him even stronger"

Everyone looked at me in confusion, i closed my eyes and started thinking

(We can’t let them enter here.... and most of us can’t fight in water or air....so what should i do.....)

Then suddenly Aries speaks and said

[You remember that one skill ’Garden of Oblivion’]

I opened my eyes and started thinking and remember that Aries was about to explain that then I replied

(Yes what about that?)

Then Aries speaks and said

[Let me explain]

Then she started explaining then a big smile appired on my face

Outside the church in the huge training ground a huge army of humans and Beastmans and Elf were standing in a line

Jekkob was standing in the top then he raised his Sword and scream

"Warriors!!!!!!! Get ready for this war! We the Paradise warriors will give evething for our home! everything for our family! We will not run we will not be afraid we will! WIN!!!"

Then behind him a huge metal poll appired and in the top of the poll there was a square flag in white colour and in the middle of that flag was a white flower sorrounded by green Vines

Everyone raised there weapon and they scream back at him

Then door of the Church slowly opened and i walked outside and behind me, Gearor, Lunara, Bokkon Yooto and Aurthor follow back and with a smile on my face i said

"Bring it on"
