So I get 1500 words to talk about myself. Nothing under 1500. What about over the limit, that's fine right. Okay then.
Then just give me a signal when your starting.
What do you mean you're already rolling.
So if you point at the recorder even that action gets recorded through words. The producer nods as even this action is recorded. He says that this is for the deaf people who refuse to get an hearing transplant or surgery. And also for those who are interested to read a novel based on you.
Phoenix Cleft thinks about what he wants to say. He still thinks. Now he notices that this action has been recorded.
He is surprised . Now he quickly adjusts himself and starts speaking. He fidgets around with his tie. And clears his throat before speaking. Taking a deep breath and clearing his mind. He finally spoke.
Good morning everyone. Hope you're having a wonderful day. I'm Phoenix Cleft. Descendant of the Late Fire King and the disciple of Moon light Thunder King.
Until now the throne of the Fire King remains vacant. Because there were no competent candidates who could rival the Fire King. For the Fire King could kevel mountains and make volcanoes erupt with his magic.
And there have been many times that the candidates have come close to his strength but none could replicate him or surpass him.
But now after a millennium it has lead to the birth of many geniuses and heroes and sages who have enough potential to reach the throne. But there could be only one Fire King.
Now let me tell you a bit about myself. I was not born in the capital but way outwards in the lands. Because I was very talented in fire magic and my style of magic resemble led the late Fire King. I was recognized and bought to the capital where I spend the rest of my life.
AND here one thing was very clear that there is place for both the talented and the non talented. Everyone can find their place in this country. In the capital.
After reaching the capital many test were carried out and it was confirmed that I was from a lost lineage. So if I have to say lineage does matter after all.
Because due to my lineage I was abke to study and train under the best master I could have asked for. When he first saw me he was also surprised that he had left someone behind.
Over a millennium ago my master was asked by the Fire King himself that one day his descendant might appear in the lands. So if he is found him. Take him as his own student.
And my master fullfiled his promise.
My mother had always supported me and sometimes she was terrified of my talent and my future. But she always cheered me on.
Now under master I improved my magic very much. But in return I had to work under my master. And that is a work in itself. I've been working under my master for now more than 20 years. And I plan to countinue doing it.
I once asked my master why does he only have two disciple while other masters were taking in dozens of disciples.
That's when he told me He has two more disciples. And I'll be soon be able to meet them.
I can disclose one of their identities. His name is very well known. He is Jay Garrick, the Liberator of Slave Island.
Mr Phoenix is recollecting his past memories and traumas faced under the situation. And tryj g to keep a straight face
Hey it wasn't that traumatic.
Mr Phoenix is being dishonest.
So here's a story once while training under master, I couldn't control my magic and it went completely berserk and I accidently burned his entire lab down. I was scolded to control my magic better and the next day all the lab equipment had been replaced by new ones and the entire room had been played to handle fire magic.
Then the next year I had become 15 and was somewhat rebellious so I used my magic to melt the plates.
AND yes I was also scolded for that because I could just say it happened by accident. So the next day the entire lab was once again reinforced by a cooling agent circulating and keeping the room temperature under control.
I also have a senior Ray Williams and he has always been like a big brother to me. I always asked him for his story about his childhood and he always played it off.
So once we were sparring and I was curious about him so I made a bet. That if he managed to beat me. I would take up his tasks for the day. But if I beat him he would reveal his story.
And then I was found tied to the pole upside down. While both my master watched as well as scolded Roy.
after embarrassing stories, here's my daily routine
So here's how my day goes. I wake up early in the morning at around 4 am. I brush my teeth and workout if I'm not out on fieldwork. My workout schedule is prepared by my master. After 2 to 3 hours. I have a bath at a temperature decided by my master. Some days it will be cold as ice and some days a warm comforting bath. Like an hot springs.
Mr Phoenix is remembering the sensation of when taking a hot bath.
After this I eat my breakfast and leave for work. I like toast bread with butter baked into it and some sweet coffee alongside it. My daily tasks are updated by Ai. Since each day I have something different to do. So it doesn't get much repetitive for me.
But it is stressing.
I can't detail all of it. So here what I'm allowed to say.
I've been out in charge of public services. Which involves looking after public transportation, public affairs, social awareness. Well mostly anything with the name public in it.
Establishing new connected roads, improving public infrastructure, resolving community issues, maintaining services.
So I continously work until I think I am done for the day. Then I finally go home where my family is waiting for me.
Eating dinner and sleeping only to continue the routine once more.
This is my daily routine. And my family helps me in keeping this routine intact. A few words about my family. My mother and my wife and my child.
They have given me the name of bringer of festivals. And I proudly say that I am very happy for being given this status.
For I love festivals. I enjoy all the festivities that are held in the capital and outside. During that time no factions matter to me be it God or my master.
Even the term bringer of festival is a joyous title. It shows that when people are in despair. Someone's presence can bring joy and happiness and love to the people just by being there.
Even now with the Elemental King's festival nearby I am glad to have become the one to host the festivals as well as being one of the candidates for the Fire King.
AND I'm very glad to tell all of you that. This festival every elemental power will be appearing this festival.
But before that, there is one thing I want to share. That the hero who liberated is my sworn brother and also another candidate for the Fire King.
Finally, I want to talk something which I need all the help I can get from all of you. The time has come for us to end the millennium long struggle with the gods. And for this we have to face the trial. By going to war against them.
We will be going against our creators. This is taboo but there is no other path forward except this. Even though this goes against all out culture and traditions which involves godly affairs. But if today we can't receive that support.
The human race no the entire world is just as good as dead.
Oh and one more announcement. For all the people planning a coup during this time. Please note this will not lead in imprisonment. But a direct public execution or you will be shot at sight. There will be no in between. We'll infact I have a list of some coup makers on our radar. You will be immediately executed. No pleading guilty will save you.
AND this is the list of the nobles who have been investing in. These groups you will be drafted willingly or unwillingly into war.
Well I know I am wasting my precious words with this but this is important. Because festivals come before everything else and If I don't work there won't be any.
These actions seems non humanitarian. But it is necessary.
