Chapter 1: Alfred's Family
" Move , faster "
" walk like a future legend "
Those where the constant yelling of a middle aged man that was gigantic and broad like a bear he had strapped on his back a colossal boulder that weighed two bruin(another name for bears ) he was leading in a line a group of young children in a forest they also had small tough boulders behind their backs ,they seemed to be at least nine years of age.
Among this children was a young sickly boy who had an exceptional handsome face and dark smooth hair he had an immature body as he walked with heavy steps he had weakness and fatigue written allover his cute face as he stood behind the group of fifteen .
His appearance was absurd it felt as if ,if the wind just became belligerent for a second he would be blown away .
From a clear observation one would pragmatically discover that he was the weakest amongst the fifteen .
He was lagging behind the group with an infinitesimal distance of two meters .
The bear looking man suddenly halted with the children doing the same he looked back and surprisingly his gaze fell on the sickly boy he shook his head and walked towards him with a sigh " Shaw ,if you can't still manage to pass this exercise ,I don't think you would be able to go through the baptism ,that holds tomorrow ,I would rather you gave up and find other things to do ,you know ,as intelligent as you are ,you could easily become a rich business man "
The young lad astonishingly shook his lowered head adamantly ,The bear looking man sighed as if he had expected it from the latter ,he then went on to ruffle the young boy's alluring and smooth hair till it was unkempt .He wanted to loosen the rope that tied the boulder on Shaw's back so as to relieve him, but Shaw amazingly showed a hint of struggling the bear like man had a smile on his face has he said.
" I presume you want to continue " Shaw nodded his head happily and said " yes master " the bear like man laughed as they both walked towards the awaiting children .
The bear like man was named Wilfred he was an instructor that was raised from birth by the Alfred's family ,they were a branch family under the Sunset clan which was the ruling clan on the Clamshire state ,the Clamshire state was one of the states under the rule of the Snow Gram ,They were precisely five Gram in the continent of Northwind with three continents In the Mountpus world .
The Alfred's family were formerly a ruling family in the Clamshire state even though their strength didn't equal to that of the Sunset clan at their peak they were still respected . But they faced a particular tribulation that almost destroyed their family so they had to take refuge under the Sunset clan on the note that they submitted to the authority of the Sunset clan the Alfred's family had no choice but to accept as the Sunset family were the only one that could save them from that particular crises .
Shaw's parents died due to the crises the family faced in the past .Due to the unfortunate tribulation the talent of the family seems to have become to deteriorate as the highest they had produced since then was just a low class bloodline warrior and that was the present family head, Wilfred him self was just a physique warrior that awakened the Iron bear physique .
Wilfred had devoted his time and energy to the upbringing of the young one's in the family ,they were not the first batch he coached and they will probably not be the last ,he doted a lot on Shaw not because he was the best which was the exact opposite ,he loved his wisdom and determination anytime he stared at him he felt ad if he was looking at his younger self .
The supposed baptism was an awakening ceremony meant for children at the age of ten that was prominent in the Northwind continent and probably the whole world .
Shaw and some other children had their birthdays tomorrow which was the baptism day but most of them among the fifteen had already clocked ten.
Most of the other children stared at Shaw with disdain ,contempt and jealousy written allover their faces they still didn't understand what Master Wilfred saw in Shaw ,even though he was shrewd that still wasn't even reason to them ,it was easy to discover that Shaw was the apple of Wilfred's eyes ,the one that had the most hate for Shaw was Jack he was the best among the group but Master Wilfred still paid less attention to him than he did to Shaw he had once tried to bully Shaw and was caught by Master Wilfred he had to run through a hill ten times to and fro with a boulder on his back he really suffered on that faithful day .
They could do nothing about it but keep hates in their hearts.
They finally arrived at their clan it was a magnificent building that was built in an open place they dropped their boulders outside as they walked in and were warmly welcomed by the other clan members .
They were led into the dinning hall as they were served their own ratio of the family's meal after eating and chatting with each other it was already night as their training always took place in the evening time .
.......
Wilfred could be seen kneeling in front of a red haired man in a beautiful palace that wore a jaunty white robe .
" Are they prepared " the red haired man suddenly said ." "Yes clan head "replied Wilfred .
" What about him "the red haired man said ,Wilfred replied by shaking his head with a sad smile on his face . " you can leave " ,Wilfred rose up as he bowed and left .
The red haired man stared at space with an inscrutable expression on his face this scene protracted before he sighed and said " such fate "
....
Shaw could be seen walking in a circular motion round a fountain as he angrily kicked the stones around him.
" Why was i born like this ,am just to weak , I still can't pass the exercise how am I suppose to handle the baptism "
Shaw was born with a natural weak body no matter how he trained he could only increase his strength bit by bit which progressive speed was far below average .If any miracle didn't happen this night then he was going on a suicide mission if he dared to take part in the baptism.
HAHAHAHAHAHA.....
Shaw groaned in pain as his feet was bleeding profusely while he was busy kicking the stones he had accidentally kicked something tough ,but stones were not suppose to injure him even though his body was weak an ordinary stone was meant to be nothing in front of him ,but one just injured him right now.
He began to search for the stone that injured him ,it was a semicircle oval egg that was covered by dust that seemed to have lost its other part .
Shaw was curious has how this innocuous egg injured him as he wiped the dust with his hands he could see through the reflection of the moon light the egg had five colours round its shell .
Shaw suddenly felt a hint of pain then he remembered his feet he dropped the egg beside him has he began to attend to it.
After a protracted time Shaw finally ended the treatment he then held the egg with his bloody hand as he began to scan it again .
Something esoteric happened that even Shaw was ignorant of .
