Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

The language of the past that the people used, and this language was the language of the origin.

Not only these letters we now call runes were the strong magic spells and foundations of the past, they almost defined the world and all the worldly elements.

The origin of language, magic as well as all magical elements one uses regardless of their race.

Runes are the things left behind from those ancient times, forgotten throughout history or destroyed with time, or by people who understood just how dangerous these things can be.

This knowledge was [Lost knowledge] and I, maybe the only person in existence, had so much knowledge of these runes that after learning them, after learning the essence of magic, every other thing looked unnaturally easy.

My master, a high phoenix and one who possessed some of the greatest knowledge and truth of this nature, allowed me to learn this knowledge handwritten by herself.

In truth, the magic of the origin was something one would naturally gain knowledge of after the ascend the bounds of mortals and joining the higher beings who were still alive as the [Gods] or [Lords] who looked over the lower lifeforms in this great nature.

Gods and Lords were two different kinds of higher beings.

One is born as a superior race or born directly by the nature in that higher realm.

The other is people who have broken the bonds of the world and have reached the same heights as these gods.

After gaining that much but still lacking knowledge, I now knew things that a mortal shouldn\'t.

And I had the natural worldly restrictions that I can\'t share this knowledge except after meeting some conditions.

And though I can use this knowledge however I want... I wasn\'t even nearly strong enough to even use the mid-level rune yet.

But even the lowest rank runes are closer to the top tier (tier-6) spells.

And the thing I was going to do right now was even special because the input energy was not the fundamental known one like Mana but Solnova.

So the power output should be even greater than the normal ones he had seen.

And I knew... even the four old ones will be as shocked as him when seeing this despite now knowing I was far stronger than what they thought.

It would be fun, and I was more excited than I had ever been after coming back here.

ZONE\'s trigger, it\'s always unique from person to person.

\'Haaa... recall, enter. Relive...\'

My eyes were closed for a while, even when I started floating in the air and materialized a ring of Solnova around my body.

The ring was spinning and just like an atom, there was a ball of materialized Solnova circling it.

And when I opened my eyes with white sparks cracking in them, everyone spectating this fight knew something new, bizarre, unexpected, and... destructive was going to happen.

And, well, they were right.

I loved this feeling of being in this state of complete oneness.

I experienced ZONE for the first time a long time ago.

And I have progressed in it deeper than normally was possible.

And after I mastered the body and soul control perfectly and was able to freely enter the astral state and separate the soul from the body for a greater time, I learned about realms that weren\'t even recorded in the normal books of the general sections of the library.

I only understood those celestial things after my master explained that stuff to me.

And she had warned me... it was too early for me to do that stuff and even if it was an intoxicating feeling, I had to stop that.

[ZONE] was something far more than just becoming one with mind and body, I can almost put it on autopilot if I went at least at the bottom of the high ZONE but, that state was something I could only achieve when I have someone strong against me.

And not someone strong like a headmaster, that would work but no.

Someone specialized in physical close-quarters combats.

Or an unimaginable number of strong opponents coming at me at once.

And this took time, so I can\'t just trigger it as I do with a normal ZONE.

Maybe Carla can if she understood herself faster and found those raw powers hidden under her finely polished basic sword talents.

Flames aren\'t the only thing that burns, and that was the only advice I could give to that cool but hot-headed girl.

It was up to her how she figures things out, but then I knew she will understand things on the path she has chosen.

Glory wasn\'t something one could achieve in one day, and becoming a candle of hope in everyone\'s heart in times of need was something I didn\'t want to do.

...I could be the protagonist but, I was no hero.

I wanted to protect my family, the ones I was close to, and the things I adored.

I knew this, and so did everyone in my family... I had no obligation to have a righteous mindset.

I didn\'t want something like fame, glory, recognition, title, or achievements.

That wasn\'t me, to begin with.

I wanted to live a life with my own beliefs, my own ideals, and my own self.

Yes, I would help if there was something wrong and needed my help but, that\'s it.

Who would want to go to some different place just to save people I had never ever known?

She wanted to do it, and she wasn\'t the only one in this world.

There were many like her. Rigorous, good, kind, ones who walked on the path of a \'hero\'.

And there were also many who truly embraced and worshiped the darkness.

Those were villains of this story if ones like Carla were heroes.

And I despised them enough that even if I detect one such as them, I would wait and find all the accomplices of them and then... do a mass genocide.

My thoughts were starting to wander in the wrong places, so I just came back and took a deep breath with the glowing red eyes with pure white sparks of light dancing in them.

This was something exciting to watch and right now, for mom and others, it was difficult so they were just speechless.

Alf was excited, and Anna was just staring at me with sparkling eyes.

In this state, I knew everything happening in the surroundings, as well as almost anything he was doing or doing at this moment.

But he was just purely amazed and looking forward to what I was going to show them.

And as soon as I started the very first line in the air, the line of one of the few known low-rank base-tier runes.

This one was a two words rune, and although I thought this will be alright, I still had that one percent uncertainty.

What would they think? How would they react? Just what kind of questions pop up in their mind after seeing this?

It wasn\'t some bad thing that their twelve-year-old knows a rune, but, being able to use that highly complex word structure that required an unreal energy control was a task few could actually perform.

It would just ultimately worry them.

But I was smiling right now, which meant I was excited.

Even if they can\'t help but smile helplessly at this behavior, what else can these helpless family members do?

\'Haaa...\' I sighed internally and with that same excited smirk, looking at the headmaster who had asked me to show the best thing I can do, I started the drawing.

The circling ball of Solnova around my body became an inkpot for me, and the first two fingers were a brush.

The ring of Solnova that the pure white ball was connected to, vanished and the ball of energy stood beside my hands, decreasing at every stroke of strange text I wrote.

Runes were the origin of all languages, and mastering the runes meant mastering every single sealable or readable language derived from them.

And these runes were so special because of just how old they were.

And even my master, one of the oldest in the world, wasn\'t present when the first of the runes were created.

All the knowledge she had of these magical words was from her enlightenment and teachings from the older ones than herself.

And although I don\'t know much about my own master just yet... I had Lucy, her last gift to me as my grandma.

She knew, and I knew... with time, I will know too.

So, for now, just a fraction of what she had taught me, and my limit to what I can show to others... the flame ruin.
