Takeshi Haruka POV:
I met four new people, they each all looked older than me except for one .
1.) A young boy of ages 12-13 , he has dark brown short wavy hair.
"Hello..My name is Gorou"
He introduced himself to me somewhat shy.
2.) A young girl of ages of 15-16 has medium-short faded color brown hair.
"Hey my name is Madoka nice to meet you."
She introduced herself casually without any awkwardness.
3.)A young girl who looks the youngest 7-8 , her hair length near her neck and faded blonde hair color.
"Hello….my…n.name is Nao p.please to meet you
4.)Is a boy slightly older than me of the age of 9-10 with short messy black and spike hair.
"Hello…my name is Hideki!"
He introduced himself nervously.
"Hello nice to meet you all, my name is Takeshi."
I introduced myself, with my first name and not my surname because I noticed that not a single one sates their surname.
So to fit in, I decided to just give them my name.So they're just as unfortunate as me, I noticed how they fully get along with each other, problem the reason to not feel alone.
"Hey.. Takeshi what do you want to become, I want to be a wizard!"
Gorou asked me an excellent question,with announcing his goal.
"I'm going to be a beautiful model!"
Madoka boldly exclaimed her future goals.
" I want to be.. a wizard too!"
Hideki chimed in also wanting to be a wizard.
"I want to be a food critic , so I could taste all the yummy foods!!"
Nao casually gives away the most interesting career choice.
They all give me stares, waiting for my reply.
Hmm now that I think about I never thought about what I wanted to be or who I could be.
I recalled my grandma's words.
"Meet… new…people and…"
"Enjoy..your…Life.."
I remember the letter my mother wrote to me.
"Cherish the people you love and meet, make sweet memories and taste the best foods"
"I want to explore the world and meet new people, so I'm going to be a wizard."
I announced my future goals.
Later inside the orphanage, I met our caretaker.
A woman about 24 years old, with wavy black hair cascades down her back, framing her paled tanned skin beautifully. Her dark blue eyes, has an warm and gentle personality.
"Hello newcomer my name is Akemi Imamura."
She greets me with a graceful smile while introducing herself.
"Hello,this newcomers name is Takeshi."
I introduced myself to her.
"Here read this document,it sates the rules and regulations that must be follow."
She handed me the document it sates.
1.)No fighting or stealing from each other.
2.)You must be at the orphanage by early night time.
3.)You must keep your room neat and tidy.
4.)Breakfast will be served in the morning-Lunchtime will be at late afternoon.
5.)Failure to cooperate you will be kicked out of the orphanage.
Your signature ______
I wrote down my signature.
"Okay..Oh wow you have beautiful hand writing skills.Welcome aboard here's your room key."
Akemi welcomed me and complement my calligraphy skills then handed me a key to my room.
Key room-#5
Now to my new room, I walked down the hallway towards the rooms.
Room-#1
Room-#2
Room-#3
Room#4
And finally.
Room-#5
I opened the door and scanned my new quarters, that I will be sleeping in and staying.
I scanned the room it was about 160 square feet. I look over at the bed, it was roughly the same size as the one in grandmas , the only difference is the colors.There was a small closet to put away clothes.Now that I think about I forgot to bring some of the clothes from grandma.
Oh well, I headed out my room made my way to the front entrance of the orphanage. I was meet with Gorou and Hideki.
"Hey Gorou since you want to be a wizard let's spar.
Hideki declares war against Gorou.
I thought fighting wasn't allowed between us, unless it's being monitored or allowed for some reason.
"Okay let's do this in the sandbox arena."
Gorou agrees.
I followed after them.
We were at the sandbox arena, Gorou and Hideki both were having a face off.
I'm spectating, I wasn't alone,there was Madoka and Nao who were with me, also some neighborhood kids too.
"Ready Gorou!!"
Gorou nods
"Ready Hideki!!
Hideki gives a nods
"Lets both count down 3-1 than it's on."
Gorou suggested.
"Okay!"
Hideki agrees.
"3!"
"3!"
"2!"
"2!"
"1!"
"1!"
Hideki immediately charges in without thinking, and throws a heavy right punch.
Gorou saw that coming and takes a step to the left and throws a low kick immediately.
Hideki braced himself by absorbing the damage with a blocking with his arms.
Hideki pulls back, Gorou charges forward with a left punch, Hideki barely dodges it and moves in for a forward tackle.
Hideki tackles Gorou to the ground and in that moment of both of them tumble down ,Gorou escapes the tumble and is up and ready for round 2.
Hideki recovers from losing the major advantage, instead of fully charging in with a attack, he slowly approaches Gorou.
Hideki throws a kick at the midsection, Gorou blocks it with his arms.
Gorou momentarily was pushed off with the kick, Hideki takes advantage of this and throws a two hit punch combo one in the same spot of the kick,right at the midsection, Gorou is force to block them with his arms.Then another punch towards the face of Gorou.
Gorou slaps the punch and in mid motion of his slap Gorou reaches over the hand of Hideki grabs onto his hand and pulls Hideki towards him.
Gorou throws a heavy knee strike right in the exposed lumber region.
"Ugha"
Hideki cries out and takes a knee, ceasing the fight.
Looks like Gorou wins, they didn't fought with mana though, just an old fashioned brawl.
"I win this one."
Gorou says.
"I call next!!"
Said a random teenage boy about the same age as Gorou.
The random teenager,had a very smug smile , looks like the type to pick up fights with minor inconvenience.
"Sure why not."
Gorou says.
The random teenager had medium, spike black hair, had hazel colored eyes.
I noticed that the random teenager , had his mana wrapped around his body.
What some ,what shocked me was Gorou also had mana wrapped around himself.
"So on the count of…"
Gorou didn't get to finish, when a flying kicked was launch at him with incredible speed.
Gorou dukes in the neck of time.
"That was a close one."
Gorou sates, to himself.
Hideki who was walking into our direction says.
"So fast!"
Indeed they're fast however both of them have mediocre mana manipulation,meaning they're wasting more mana and energy.
I wonder if they know how to cast magic.
Gorou moves with quick speed, and delivers an uppercut at the teenager, however he takes a step backwards and throws a left hook,Gorou catch's the hook with interlocking his arms with his and controls the teenager's rhythm, and spins the teenager upside down and stomps on his head.
However the teenager moves the side of his head to dodge the blow, he than grabs Gorou foot and pulls Gorou to the ground and than kicks Gorou in the face.
However Gorou seen it coming by blocking his face,however the teenager takes advantage of Gorous blind spot by tackling Gorou and gets on top of Gorou and rains down rain down blows.
Gorou was hit 3 times in the face two on the both sides of his face cheeks and one down on his nose.Blood was dripping down his nose, Gorou was down for the count however the teenager had other plans and was about to hit Gorou one more time.
"That's enough!!"
" You've already won."
Hideki shouts loudly , the teenager halts and gazed over at Hideki and gives an disgusting smile.
Hideki was taken back such malicious radiating off of the teenager.
"What's this a weakling stopping the fun."
The teenager eyes landed on mine than gives a creepy smile and says.
"How about you little guy."
I answered with a cocky grin.
Teenager POV:
That brats grin creeped me it was the same smile only monster make.
"Why would I waste my time with a weakling.
The brats cockily walks up towards me and says without a care in the world on who his messing with.
I channel more mana and moved faster than ever , I reached out to punch the brats face in then I heard.
"Nice speed however."
I looked over where my punch landed,it was in the brats hand clenched.
"You're Mana control is beyond weak.
W..what h..how is this possible.
"What's wrong."
The devil said.
I than felt a punch struck me in face.
" That's 1/3 now."
•bam
"That's 2/3
•pow
"That's 3/3
I felt my consciousness slipping, my eyes closing, the last thing I see is a devil smiling at me.
Takeshi Haruka POV:
Well, that was easy.
I guess control is better than raw power.
Welp time to head back to the orphanage almost dinner time.
"Wow Takeshi your the strongest."
Hideki complements my strength by declaring being the strongest.
"W..wow Takeshi your strong than you look.
Gorou chimes in.
"Here drink this it's water."
I handed him my water bottle that I had with me.
That was my first day of being in the orphanage.
