First Meet

??:- Everything will be mine. I will destroy you and your whole clan. It will be all mine.

Girl:- No! I won't let you take anything from me.

??:- Heh. What can you do? Your clan's power is decreasing. It's a matter of time when you and your whole clan will be crushed down to the bottom. 

Girl:- Nooo!!

Girl:- Kyaaaa!! (She sat up quickly)

Girl's POV:- Oh? It was a nightmare. I need to hurry. Time is short. I must save them all. (She gripped her bed cover while looking outside of the window.)

Seraphic Lunar Empire. Seraphic Veil Conclave Dynasty, Zen was born into an empire where supernatural humans and normal humans, non-humans and magical beings co-exists. Until now Zen is a normal human dreaming of being a knight as his father. Who was a knight in the Imperial knight division. He wants to follow his deceased father's footsteps. 

At a two-storey house, his room is on the top floor. His bedroom is quite clean and tidy and organised. One day, his sister burst into his room and woke him up.

Zen:- Ahhhh!!!! What happened, what happened? Why are you shouting like that?? (He jumped up and sat straight in the bed with a horrific expression.)

Ziva:- Why am I shouting like this? Did you see the time? It's already morning. 

Zen:- Oh yeah!! It's 5 o'clock. So What?? You ruined my sweet dream. (He checked the clock and spoke with annoyed look)

Ziva:- Ughh!! Seriously. 

Zen:- What? 

Ziva:- I think you forgot that you are going to leave today. 

Zen:- Huh? Oh no I forgot about that. Thank you. (He jumped out of the bed and went to take his towel.)

Ziva:- Get ready fast. Your ship will leave in 2 hours. 

Zen:- Okk. There's enough time for me. (He replied while going in the bathroom for a shower.)

He quickly took a bath and got ready. He went down to eat breakfast. His mom already prepared his backpack beforehand since she knew he would wake up late. 

Zen:- Hey mom!! (He called out for his mother while coming down from the stairs.) 

Mom:- Oh Hi Honey. Are you ready honey?? 

Zen:- Oh yeah mom I'm ready.

Mom:- Here. Eat your breakfast. (She decorated various foods at the table in front of him.)

Zen:- Wowww. It's all my favourite. Thank you Mom.

Mom:- Welcome honey.

Ziva:- Oh wait. I also have a special dish for you. 

Ziva:- Here. I made this famous matcha plant terrarium for you.

Zen:- Really you made this?? 

Ziva:- Yeah. Now taste it. 

Zen:- Yumm. It's so tasty. 

Ziva:- Really? 

Zen:- Yup.

Zen took some rest after having his breakfast and saw if he didn't forget to take anything. After a while he got ready to go. He went to say farewell to his mom and sister.

Zen:- Hey mom. Take care of yourself. I will come back very soon. 

Zen:- And When I'm not here you have to take care of mom. Understand?? Also take care of yourself sweetie.. 

Ziva:- (With a hug) I promise that I will take good care of mommy and also myself. I will miss you. 

Zen:- Mom. (Hugging) 

Mom:- Take care honey. Now go or you will miss your ship. 

Zen:- Bye Mom.

He left his house and started walking to the port. Let's hear about him from himself while he is walking to the port.

Hello, My name is Zen Paxton. I'm 15 years old, I'll turn 16 this year. I live In Violetlyn Town with my mother and my cute little sister in Pridraxus Duchy. I want to be a powerful knight. To fulfill my dream I'm going to the Capital to attend a competition held for knights. I'm 5'7 tall. As you can see, I have purple hair with white shade like my sister and I have light purple pupils like my mother. Everyone says that we inherited our father's look.

Zen was wearing full pants with a black and white t-shirt with his sleeve folded up to his elbows. He was wearing short finger gloves and a pair of short boots.

At 7 O'clock the ship left Violetlyn Town. His Destination is Nocture City, the capital. He lives in the Seraphic Lunar Empire. It is a huge Empire surrounded by seas and forest mountains. It's divided into many dukedoms. There are 9 Duchies and one Arch-Duchy. Violetlyn town is situated in Pridraxus Duchy in the south-east. Zen is currently heading south to the Trobotdom Duchy. 

After a 6 hour sea journey he reached Delphine Port, which is situated at the Trobotdom duchy's border. It's already Noon so he has to take a break for lunch and also he has to find a restaurant. So it will be afternoon. He needs to pass the Clover forest to reach Trodrand city. At night it's pretty dangerous to pass through a forest alone. So he decided to take some rest in Delphine city. He thought about eating lunch first as he was hungry. So he went to search for a restaurant.

After 20 minutes of walking he found a good restaurant to eat in. He went in there to order some food then he found a nice place to sit. When he was waiting for his food he heard a noise. He looked out and saw some people fighting out there. Something happened there. He went there and tried to figure out what happened.

Unknown Boy:- What have I done? Why are you fighting with me huh? (a stranger was holding the collar of the unknown boy.) 

Stranger:- Huh? You forgot what you had done? When I beat you to death you will understand what can happen if someone snatches their prey. (He groans.)

Unknown Boy:- Oh now I understand what you are talking about. You are talking about that girl, right? Well if you want to beat me to death then go ahead. I'm not a single inch ashamed to save a little girl from some dirty monsters. (He replied sarcastically.)
