Chapter 1 - little champion

Monsters called Fiends were attacking the world and killing people. Emperor Caleb Asterian wanted to stop them. He hated seeing his people suffer, so he asked the Gods for help. Because Caleb was a good man, the Gods gave him the power of Sun Magic.

Caleb used this power to defeat the monsters and save the world. However, Caleb knew he would not live forever. He wanted everyone to have magic so they could protect themselves.

Caleb prayed for 90 days until the Suit Magic God appeared. The God gave Caleb seven types of magic based on a person's personality:

• Hearts: For kind and caring people.

• Spades: For brave and strong people.

• Diamonds: For rich and powerful people.

• clovers: For lucky and successful people.

• King: For great leaders.

• Queens: For wise and beautiful people.

• Jacks: For adventurous and bold people.

To give this magic to everyone, Caleb had to give up his own life. Before he died, he told his people:

"You will all get magic that fits who you are. Use it to fight the monsters and stay free. You are all Champions now! One day, a great leader will rise and destroy the monsters forever."

Now, every child gets their magic when they turn 10 years old. The people built a large statue of Caleb to remember the hero who gave his life to save them.

——

Present day:(1000 years later)

The story begins in an orphanage near a church where 3 nuns raise children. Sister Ruby the nicest one ,sister Martha the strict one and Sister Helen the leader. They all live in a small village of Saint Leopold far from the royal capital where the noble and rich live. This entire country is called the Kingdom of Elysia

On this sunny Sunday, the church is filled with the sweet sounds of the children's choir. After worship, the kids head to the social hall for a well-deserved treat. Amidst plates of tasty snacks and glasses of cold juice, they engage in discussions that shape their values and inspire them to become caring, responsible members of society.

Now, meet three inspiring young minds...

Adrien (of unknown surname), Lily Nekomori, and Kade Stanley were the best of friends, each with their unique personality. Nine-year-old Lily was a gentle soul with a heart of gold, always ready to lend a helping hand. Kade, on the other hand, was a rugged and ambitious boy, driven to become the strongest champion. Adrien, quiet and introspective, harbored a burning desire to surpass them all.

The day before their magical awakening ceremony, Sister Ruby asked with a warm smile, "Are you children ready for tomorrow's big day?"

Kade sprang up, his eyes aglow. "I was born ready, Sister! I'll train harder than ever to become an Elite Champion!"

Lily's voice was tinged with caution. "For 700 years, no one has achieved that title, Kade."

Kade's grin faltered, but his determination didn't waver. "That's exactly why I'll do it! I'll show everyone what I'm capable of."

Adrien, lost in his drawing, looked up with an unwavering smile. "I'll become the greatest, Sister. I'll stand before the kingdom as the Elite Champion, wearing Emperor's Caleb's crown."

Kade snickered. "You think you can outrank me? I'm stronger, and I'll be the Elite Champion!"

Adrien's eyes sparkled. "It's on, then."

Kade's laughter filled the room. "Oh, you two think you can take me down? Bring it on!"

Sister Ruby intervened, her voice gentle but firm. "Enough, children. Let's prepare for tomorrow's ceremony. We'll head to town to choose your attire."

The trio's excitement was palpable as they eagerly anticipated their magical awakening.

——-

In the heart of the royal capital, the palace bustled with activity. Among its opulent halls, a sweet and gentle soul bloomed. Princess Cassandra Chryses, just nine years old, was a vision of loveliness, with a heart full of warmth and a smile that could light up the darkest of rooms

Princess Cassandra Chryses lived a life of unparalleled luxury, surrounded by every comfort and privilege. Her trusted Royal Governess, Catherine Temple, ensured her daily routine was a seamless blend of elegance and refinement.

Each morning began with Governess Temple's warm greeting: "Good morning, Princess. I hope you had a restful night's sleep." Cassandra stretched, yawning, and replied, "Yes, Governess."

As the day of the Magic Ceremony approached, Catherine's tone turned slightly more serious. "Tomorrow's ceremony requires preparation. Your designer awaits, and everything is ready. All you need do is choose."

With that, Cassandra's pampering began. A lavish royal bath, expert hairstyling, and meticulous manicure and pedicure transformed her into a vision of loveliness. Her designer took precise measurements for the perfect gown.

Finally, Catherine escorted Cassandra downstairs to join the royal family for breakfast. The opulent dining hall shimmered with gold and crystal as Cassandra took her seat, greeting her family with a bright smile. "Good morning, family."

Her twin brother, Prince Christopher Chryses, replied curtly, his expression a stark contrast to Cassandra's warmth. Unlike his sister, Christopher prioritized the trappings of royalty over compassion and kindness, his demeanor serious and aloof

Shall we begin breakfast?" Prince Christopher asked impatiently.

Not yet, dear. We're waiting for Ella and Eira," Queen Athena replied

King Sander intervened, his voice calm and authoritative. "Patience is a virtue, Christopher. A prince must learn to wait."

Just then, King Sander's brother, Maximus, entered with his twin daughters, Ella and Eira.

Ella, the older twin, burst with energy, her curious nature and loud laughter infectious.

Eira, on the other hand, was a gentle soul, kind, quiet, and shy

Christopher scowled. "You're late, as usual. Ella, your impulsiveness and tardiness are unbecoming of royalty. And Eira, your timid nature won't serve you well in our position."

Ella shot back, "You're just jealous that your daddy can't carry you on his shoulders like our daddy does with us!"

Christopher's face reddened. "At least my father is the king."

Ella retorted, "As if you'll ever be king. Cassandra will reign, not you."

Maximus stepped in, his serious face stern. "Enough! Your behavior is unbecoming of royalty. Remember your station and conduct yourselves with dignity."

Ella looked down, chastened "understood,daddy"

As the trio and Sister Ruby arrived in town, they were struck by the unfamiliar sights and sounds. Lily's eyes sparkled. "It's lovely here!" Kade exclaimed, "I'll live in the royal capital one day!" Adrien's gaze fixed on the distant statue of Emperor

Caleb. "Sister, may we visit the statue later? I've heard it's breathtaking up close."

Sister Ruby nodded. "If we finish early, we'll make time for it."

Inside the boutique, Lily sought the perfect yellow dress,while Kade searched for knightly attire.Adrien wandered, lost in thought, until he noticed the commotion outside.

Curious, he stepped out into the throng, where champions were passing by to cheers and applause. Adrien's eyes shone with awe. He waved, envisioning himself among their ranks.

As he sketched the champions in his book, the crowd surged, knocking him to the ground. Feet trampled him, but a champion intervened.

Hey, you're hurting a kid!" she said, gently lifting Adrien. Concern etched her 23 year-old face.

Adrien brushed himself off, gratitude in his eyes. "Thank you... I'm fine."

The champion smiled. ". You're quite the artist." She nodded toward his sketchbook.

She helped Adrien up, her hand firm and gentle. "Thank you," he smiled, gratitude shining in his eyes.

"Be careful, okay?" She ruffled his hair before turning to leave, handing him a small Spade badge.

Adrien beamed. "I was touched by a champion! No one will believe this!"

On their way back to the village, Adrien recounted every detail. Kade scoffed, "No way a champion would touch a dirty kid like you."

"I'm telling you, it happened!" Adrien insisted. "Look, she gave me this badge!"

Lily's eyes widened. "Wow, it's so cool!"

"I know, right? I'll wear it until I become a champion," Adrien declared.

Kade scowled, envy flickering across his face. "Tch."

——

The day of the ceremony dawned, and the trio donned their finest attire. Kade, clad in knightly armor, boasted, "I look invincible!"

Lily, radiant in her yellow dress, countered with a grin, "Not nearly as stunning as I do."

Adrien, dashing in his tailored suit, captured their likenesses in his sketchbook.

Sister Martha ushered them forward. "Let's proceed, children."

At the palace, preparations were underway. Noble guests from abroad mingled with the kingdom's elite. Children from esteemed families were dressed in their finest, eager to receive their magical abilities.

—-

The village ceremony commenced, led by the esteemed officiant. With outstretched arms, they invoked the divine: "Suits of magic, appear!"

Four glowing suits materialized in the air, surrounded by a circle. Each child would stand within, receiving their magical destiny.

Lily stepped forward first. The suits danced around her, and three disappeared, leaving the Ace of Hearts. Cheers erupted as she discovered her Cat magic affinity, accompanied by a majestic feline spirit animal. This sacred bond would amplify her powers fiftyfold.

Next, Kade took his place. The suits swirled, merging into the Jacks symbol – a rare, extraordinary sign. Earth magic coursed through him, drawing thunderous applause. Pride radiated from his beaming face.

Finally, Adrien's turn arrived. With a deep breath, he entered the circle. The suits whirled faster,until they disappeared leaving Adrien without magic, shocking everyone.

"What happened?" someone asked.

"Did he really not get any magic?" another voice whispered.

Adrien's eyes welled up with tears as he gazed at Sister Ruby and the others. Their faces reflected sadness.

"Adrien, I'm sorry," Lily said gently. "Maybe you'll get magic next year."

Kade added, "Yeah, maybe it's not your time, but don't worry."

Adrien wiped away his tear and forced a smile. "Yeah, maybe." Then, he turned and ran away.

The group watched him go, their hearts heavy with sympathy.

——

At the palace, the ceremony unfolded with grandeur. Eira, chosen by the Queens, received Snow magic. Christopher and Ella, selected by the Kings, acquired Moon and Rabbit magic, respectively. Ella's inner spirit welcomed a adorable bunny as her spirit animal.

Lastly, Cassandra stepped into the circle, which transformed into radiant gold. Her inner spirit revealed a heavenly realm, where Seraphima, a majestic angel, hummed a gentle melody.

"Hello, Cassandra," Seraphima said, her wings shimmering.

Cassandra smiled, enchanted. "Hi! Your wings are stunning. Am I in heaven?"

Seraphima's laughter echoed. "No, dear, this is your inner spirit – a paradise reflecting your pure heart."

Cassandra's eyes widened in wonder. "Really? That's incredible!"

Seraphima smiled. "I'm Seraphima, your spirit angel."

The four suits merged, forming the Kings symbol, and bestowed Angel magic upon Cassandra.

——

Adrien sprinted into the woods, tears streaming down his face. His friends, Lily and Kade, chased after him. "Adrien, stop! You're not supposed to go there!" Lily shouted.

Ignoring their warnings, Adrien ventured deeper into the forbidden part of the woods. His friends' calls grew fainter as he stumbled upon a hidden hole concealed by grass. As he fell, Kade and Lily rushed to his side. "Hey, grab my hand!" Kade urged.

But Adrien hesitated, entranced by a mysterious voice calling his name. "Adrien, Adrien, come here." He turned toward the sound, his friends' concerns escalating."someone is calling me"

"Cut it out, Adrien! There's nobody calling you!" Kade shouted.

"Remember, this is the haunted part of the woods!" Lily warned. "Just ignore the voices!"

Yet, Adrien felt an inexplicable pull. He followed the voice, leaving his friends behind. The voice led him to an ancient, weathered box. "Hey guys! I found something!" he yelled.

Lily and Kade's responses were instant. "Just leave it alone!"

But Adrien was resolute. The voice urged him to open the box, and he complied. A dark, malevolent spirit emerged, its presence petrifying. Adrien froze, paralyzed with fear.

The spirit's blood-curdling scream sent Kade and Lily fleeing in terror. They sought help, but when they returned with Sister Helen and Sister Ruby, Adrien was nowhere to be found.

"Are you sure he fell inside here?" Sister Helen asked.

"Yes," Lily replied, shaken. "We heard the monster's scream, but Adrien didn't make a sound."

Sister Ruby's expression turned grim. "We'll search the entire woods. He must be found."

For six long months, the search continued, but Adrien remained lost, consumed by the darkness that had claimed him.

Lost posters of him were put but no one saw him. Then they came to a conclusion that he was devoured by fiends
