9 Ethon’s magic: Darkness Ethon's story
Ethon didn't believe what was happening: Elder Esti would teach him!
After seven years, his dream to learn more things instead of spirit taming was granted. Even that his personality is of someone cold and apparent without emotions, but with those news he was excited and there was nothing he could do. Salgot knew that Ethon was happy, but he was still worry about the rumors Elder Esti told him. If the Royal family make a move, he and Ethon will not be the only ones affected the village may be affected too, but he and Ethon couldn't leave just like that.
Ethon was waiting for Elder Esti that was in her room in Salgot's home. He looked at the cloudy sky with a nostalgic sight. He remember when he lived in a peaceful garden with his parents. Everything was perfect for him even if his family was poor he was happy. No one bother them. Wars were far away and didn't affect their life. However, for some reason soldiers with serious injuries arrive to their home and his mother attended them with hostage. The soldiers were grateful with the treatment and left. A month passed and some soldiers returned, but they weren't alone: their king was with them. When the king saw Ethon's mother, the king killed her immediately and then killed Ethon's father, leaving the little boy alone. The king tried to keep Ethon with him, but Ethon activated his power and murdered the king and the soldiers. After those events, the war between the Lord and the other kingdoms began. When Ethon remembered the reason why he started a war with the other kingdoms his face turned grim and coldness could be feel in his surroundings. Salgot felt chills and he remembered that it was Ethon who produced that sensation of coldness and hopeless "Ethon! Calm yourself!" Salgot ran where Ethon was and hugged him "I'm here with you Ethon" he felt how the darkness was covering him. Ethon was in a daze when he felt someone called and hugged him. He felt the warm of the other person and then he realized that was Salgot. Ethon calmed himself. He saw Salgot in the ground with a pale face "Salgot! Are you ok?" Ethon got worried, he knew he was the one who left Salgot in that state "I'm fine Ethon, but I'm glad that you recovered and returned from your memories" he smiled "Look! Elder Esti is out of her room!" Salgot pointed at the door from where Elder Esti was coming with a serious face "First lesson: Ethon you must control your feelings. Your power is being affected by your emotions and that is dangerous for you and for the people that is around you. Look how Elder Salgot had been affected by your dark magic, if you didn't react in time, Elder Salgot might be dead right now" she had an authoritative disposition in her words. Ethon knew he was careless when remembering his past life "How can I learn to control my emotions? How can I use my powers without having them affected by my emotions?" He looked at Elder Esti with a resolved gaze. Elder Esti nodded with a satisfactory smile "Good! I don't know your past, but now your past will not affect your current life, you need to let it go your past. Remember everything while you are creating a sphere of darkness of ten centimeters of diameter. The sphere must maintain its perfect form without disturbances, when you finally manage this task you will be able to control your darkness" with an affirmative nod, Ethon closed his eyes and in his hands a sphere started to appear with the characteristics that Elder Esti told him precisely. His memories started to flow with an acceptable swiftness.
While Ethon was occupied with his task, Elder Esti went to look how was Salgot "I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while and I will return to normal" he tried to get up but he was enfeebled and didn't be able to get up "Don't pull yourself up, take this pill and recover your spiritual energy" Elder Esti passed a light green pill to Elder Salgot and he consumed it without regrets. After some seconds, he started to feel better and his pale face recuperate its natural color "I know how expensive is this pill, thanks Elder Esti" he bowed his head to her. Suddenly, a cold air was felt and both, Elder Esti and Salgot turned their gazes to Ethon. Ethon was remembering when he started the war between him and the kingdoms, the sphere started to be unstable and the darkness started to emite the cold air "Ethon! Listen to me! You must not stay in the past, let your memories flow!" Salgot was frenzied: all that concentration of darkness that was in the sphere was dangerous for everything that was one kilometer around might be cover in darkness for at least one hundred years, or the worst case: erradicated. The moment Ethon heard Salgot's voice the dark sphere returned to its original form, then Ethon opened his eyes and one could sense the coldness and kill intent that was in his gaze. Ethon looked at Elder Esti and his kill intent dissipated and a grateful, but cold, gaze replaced it "You were right Elder Esti, I must not let my past life to affect my new current life. Thanks for the first lesson" he bowed his head respectfully. Elder Esti smiled "Now that you control your magic of darkness, you are going to learn how to use it" "But Elder, do you know how to teach him? Remember that his magic is unique..." Salgot said however Elder Esti's gaze stopped his words and a flow of darkness appeared in Elder Esti's hand like a little fire "I know it's uniqueness, but it is not impossible to learn for other people to control it, the difference between the darkness that I am showing you and Ethon's is that mine is less purer than Ethon's darkness by great stages" Salgot understood and nodded his head to confirm his understanding. Ethon got amazed when he saw Elder Esti's hand.
After teaching him some techniques and gave him some pointers, Elder Esti returned to her village and the sight she found was something that she was waiting for: a small army of soldiers were asking the villagers some questions. Ten minutes passed when one soldier saw Elder Esti walking to her house "Excuse madam, but I must ask you some questions regarding of a person named Salgot" the soldier stepped with determinate disposition "What are you questions youth?" Elder Esti knew that it would suspicious if she refuse to answer "Well, there are just two questions: Do you know him? And do you have contact with him?" Elder Esti expected those questions and answered with a tranquil voice "Yes I know him, he was my student. However I didn't have any contact with him since I left the academy" the soldier got stunned. The soldiers knew that Salgot was an elder, and if this old-woman said she was his teacher that means... "Elder, please forgive my rudeness!" The soldier bowed his head with respect and fear "Don't worry about your rudeness, it was my fault to not present me before" Elder Esti sighed with relief after she said farewell to the soldier and thought 'We have less time that I thought before. I must alarm Salgot' and she returned to the forest when an explosion was heard and all the soldiers turned their gazes to the forest.
While those events were happening, Ethon was concentrated to create the same fire-form darkness that Elder Esti did. Like his teacher told him, he visualized the darkness accumulating in his hand and taking the form of a little flame. Two hours passed and finally Ethon accomplished the task. Salgot was watching him and got surprised when he noticed the dark flame in Ethon's hand, he started to compare it with Elder Esti's and Salgot realized that what she said was correct: Ethon's darkness was purer than hers. Nevertheless, Salgot wondered why Elder Esti said that some people could learn dark magic and even use it, if it is suppose that it was one of the two magic types that the lord (Ethon) was adept to 'Maybe I have been without contact for too long' he smiled bitterly.
The next step was to shoot that flame like an arrow, Elder Esti didn't told him the name, so Ethon named it [Sharp Dark Dart] and then he practiced it. After three tries he managed to shoot it but the impact pushed him back and fell to the ground. Salgot was laughing "Hahahaha! Kid you should put one leg in front of the other to keep the balance after shooting your dart!" Maybe Salgot was a Spirit beast tamer, but he was more adept to combat techniques. Ethon was red, but he understood the pointer that Salgot told him and realized that if he put his legs in that way he will maintain his posture and the hit with his dart would be stronger, so he tried again "[Sharp Dark Dart]!" Ethon shot the dart.
Boom!
An explosion was heard. Ethon was shocked "Salgot! Salgot!" Salgot was with an open mouth while he was looking at the tree where Ethon aimed, Ethon looked at the direction Salgot was looking at and when he expected to see the tree with a little whole his eyes wide and saw that there was a large line starting where the tree was "Ethon, you know now how strong you are. Maybe you learn to control your emotions and magic, but now you must learn to control your force" Salgot stated after he returned to his senses. Ethon nodded affirmatively. Salgot commanded to some spirits to repair the damage in the forest, and they did it with enthusiasm. Soon both of them heard that someone was approaching to them.
