I read what my power included on the ability list and it read "True immortality, only 3 way's you can truly die which includes, you having to will to live and dying, you betting your life and Not revealed yet."
I thought to myself what could Not reveal yet mean, it was obviously something I didn't know, but also something the Overseer would know, an ability maybe, but how would that work then? Forcing me to bet my life or a physical object somehow...
I couldn't get an answer by just wondering so I decided to keep it in the back of my mind for now, since there are more important things to focus on.
"So what are your fours abilities?"
All of them quickly looked at me with Nyx saying "I haven't choosen or am I able to pick a ability path yet, that's at least what it says." I quickly looked at all of them and they all nodded their heads in agreement.
"that's weird I already have an ability..."
I was lost in thought yet again, but I quickly looked up and shrugged. "Maybe it will come with time then, since you 4 weren't summoned by the Overseer maybe?"
"But if that's all we can start doing some basic training then."
***
Around 3 hours later we were all tired, but as I noticed and the other have noticed too at this point, we're all physically stronger, faster, more durable and have more stamina than we had before.
After training we all got forced into a room that gave me class vibes when I noticed someone walking in and standing next to a desk...
The man who looked like the average history teacher pulled out a map and laid it down and began talking. "I will be you're history, geography and military strategist instructor."
"And today's first lesson is history of the Fraction kingdom."
As the lessons time came and went I learned some basic things such as the Fraction kingdom was a small kingdom, like most others in the world, which would explain the large amount of people that were summoned, but besides that I didn't listen all that much and that the Fraction's neighbours were known for war conquest."
After the lesson I began wandering a little around the castle to explore it and get a good idea for the layout, Henry decided to accompany me as we went to explore the castle.
As the days flew by we woke up ate breakfast, trained, had lessons ate dinner and we had basically done that for the last few days without much of a difference, the only different thing was me meeting the army and trying to act like a military captain around them even though i was a lot younger than them.
But one day I was called by king Lloyd to talk with him personally, so as I entered the throne room and knelt in front of him like the knights does in the movies right after they came back from an important mission.
"Stand up Folke, we're so close you don't need to kneel."
I quickly stood up and as Lloyd made a hand movement for me to get closer I did.
"Folke you remind me of someone very dear to me who isn't here anymore..."
The king quickly walked behind the throne where a door that led to his own room was, I quickly followed him and it look like he was taking care of his own room without help from the staff, it was dusty and had no natural light in here, but I saw something on a desk, I quickly walked over and saw what looked like a family painting, with a child that had blue hair just like me, even if mine is dyed.
"Im guessing this is you're family right..."
I quickly realised that this entire time I had seen no one that looked them here or did anyone mention or have seen anyone who is royalty just like him here, so I could quickly guess what had happened.
The king quickly chuckled and picked up the painting and smiled to himself. "I really miss them all, I sometimes wonder if I came off weird to you at the start, you just reminded me of my grandchild so was always full of energy, so I hoped I could maybe feel the same with you as I did to him."
"But it's impossible, you are you're own person, and I would never want to replace him, he's gone and I gotta try and move on from the past..."
I didn't know what to say, even though Lloyd had been talking a lot to me the past few days I still didn't know him that well, so I didn't know what to say, and I could only stay quiet.
Lloyd continue to stare at the painting, looking as if he was taking in every detail of the painting, the time past with some awkward quietness until Lloyd looked up from the painting and looked at me. "Sorry for telling you this, you probably didn't want to hear an old guy talking about his dead family..."
"Wanna go on a talk with me Lloyd?"
Lloyd is expression changed slightly to something I couldn't tell if he was happy or surprised, but he opened his mouth and said "Sure let's go on a walk."
We slowly walked out the castle, I wanted to start a conversation with Lloyd, but I didn't know what I could say to Lloyd, so we arrived outside and began to walk on the castle walls and look at the scenary.
"How long ago did it happen..."
I looked at Lloyd, I was hesitate to even ask him that question...
"It happened about 6 year ago in the second monster war..."
I remember hearing about the second monster war, the only reason it ended was because of the Overseer summoning people from a different world that all the nations and monsters agreed on a ceasefire.
I heard some yelling from the city and in the distance I saw what looked like smoke rising up in the distance and the I heard a thud behind me.
"Lloyd there's smoke in the distance."
I looked back at Lloyd who was no longer standing, but was laying on the ground with an arrow in his head.
