Scene: Dark, Cloudy Day
Naration:
Rain fell heavily on the road. A child was thrown there by an unknown slave trader. The kid feels hopeless when he is thrown; he realizes and thinks about many things about him.
The Reason..
He had no natural energy-emitting ability—a rare condition in humans.
On top of that, his eyes were nearly blind. Ordinary humans could use energy,
but martial arts was a profession:
A swordsman hones his blade,
A knight practices combat,
A fighter masters the art of fists.
Energy release was like fashion—you needed to master it to use it in battle.
Slave Trader:
"I'm sorry, kid. You'll survive if you beg for food. I have no money to raise you."
Not far away, Orozoel rode a horse cart with his disciples. From a distance, he noticed the scene.
Orozoel: "Stop the cart."
Orozoel (thinking): A yellow-haired kid…
Orozoel (speaking, concerned): "Kid… are you okay?"
Kid: "Mister… I'm sorry. I can't see your face clearly. I… have a problem with my eyes."
Orozoel (thinking): In his condition… he will die. Those men are scum.
Orozoel: "Perhaps this meeting is heaven's will. Do you want a home?"
Kid:" Mister… I have nothing to offer. I can't learn martial arts because of my rare disease. My eyes are almost blind. And look at my body… I'm so thin I can barely walk."
Orozoel:"I have expert healers. Do not worry. You will work for me. From today, you are family." What's your name, Kid?
Kid: Kyu.. kyu..en..
Kyuen cried like he never had before.
The disciples laughed softly. They felt happy for the child.
-- Scene: Practice Room
Three years later — Kyuen (10), Bill(14), Moro(13), and Ren(13)
Bill: "We're best friends in the Luminus playground. In a few years, we'll become young disciples like that fool Baku. And I'll be your leader. Cheers!"
Ren: "Bill, we'll get punished again if the Clan Head finds out!"
Moro: "The seniors say girls suffer from mouth disease."
Kyuen & Bill: They suppress their laughter… then burst out laughing.
Bill: "Seriously, my best friends. Someday, I'll become the Clan Head. We'll make Luminus the strongest again."
Suddenly, footsteps echo outside.
Kyuen:"Bill… Baku is coming."
They panic. Quickly, they hide the alcohol.
Baku (entering, immediately sniffing): "Hah… I can smell it! What are you brats doing?"
Baku glares at them.
Bill (brightly, changing the topic):"Anyway, who do you think is the strongest leader? The First Clan Leader!!
Present Time..
Scene: Luminus Mountain – A Few Minutes Later
Four hooded figures moved in different directions across a vast area of the Luminus mountains.
Leader of the hooded men (signal):
"You must activate at the same time. Fast and clean."
Four hooded figures (in different directions): "Yes, Vice Leader."
Black-Faced Man with Red Eyes:
"****** Beast Trees… summon.Next…
the special one: Thousand-Year Black Beast… summon."
Maskman with Long Sword (with tears in his eyes): "This will be a lonely night for me."
Four hooded figures (shouting together):
"Art of Silencing, 'Silent Field' release!
Art of Illusion, 'Illusion Prison Field' release!"
Narration / Action:
Four massive lights appeared in different directions, shocking the Luminus Clan as the fields suddenly covered the mountains. Instincts raised questions…
