Chapter 10: Fourteen Years Ago The Fireborn Incident



The Fireborn Incident

It changed the world.

The S-rank Fal and his wife, Mis, who was an A-rank, had just had a baby. The child was only a few days old when they received a message:

"Five S-ranks are dead."

"The world is lost?"

"Our last hope is the strongest S-rank. We need you."

Mis looked at her husband, shocked.

"Fal, this is terrible…"

"I know," he replied.

He picked up his newborn son.

"Here. Take our son and leave the city, okay?"

Mis took the baby, her hands trembling.

"But you?"

"I'll follow soon," Fal said calmly.

He gave baby Mike one last kiss on the forehead.

Then he did something strange—he muttered ancient words, words Mis did not understand.

And then he jumped—vanishing into the distance.

Fal on his way to Fireborn.

Fal fell…

But he did not lose.

Fireborn was sealed—locked away in the ancient Shadow Realm.

The Shadow Realm…

It had been created by the strongest man on Earth:

Fal himself.

He sealed Fireborn away in that dark place… but the cost was high.

Fal died from his injuries.

Mis heard the news.

She broke down in tears.

But then she stood—on a rooftop—and saw it:

A massive dragon, burning the city to the ground.

She knew she had to stop it.

Even if it was the last thing she'd ever do.

She looked at her son.

"Mike Tyl, my child… here, take my necklace."

"Will you keep it safe for me?"

Little Mike touched her nose with his tiny hand, as if to say yes.

Mis stood tall, facing the dragon.

The dragon spewed fire.

"Light Shield!"

"Light Beam!"

The shield blocked the flames.

The light beam struck the dragon's eye—it roared in pain and fury.

With one beat of its massive wings, it launched Mis through the air.

She fell…

And died.

But then—they came.

Fifty Sals, all A-rank, arrived together.

They managed to defeat the dragon.

And they found the baby…

"Poor child," one of them said.

"Yeah… what will become of him now?"

Twelve years later

Mike had been raised by the government his entire life.

But now, at the age of twelve, he was finally being given his own apartment.

"Mike," the government agent said, "you wanted to know what happened to your parents?"

Mike looked up, curious.

"Yeah… where are they? Can I meet them? Maybe… maybe they want to see me now, after twelve years."

He smiled slightly, hopeful.

The agent shook his head.

"I'm sorry. Your parents died… in a car accident. Twelve years ago."

Mike's smile faded.

"Oh," he answered quietly.

"But Mike," the man added quickly, "today's still a good day."

"You're getting your own apartment! What do you think?"

Mike turned his head to the side, avoiding eye contact.

"…Yeah. Finally."

But deep down, he didn't want to celebrate.

What he really wanted was to be alone

The agent gestured to the edge of the city.

"Your apartment's down there—see it?

They arrived.

He opened the door, showing Mike around the small but clean space.

"One last thing," the man said. "You'll be getting money from us each month—so don't worry about anything."

Then he opened the door, stepped outside, and left.

Mike stood alone in silence the first time

Finally… alone
