On a certain house at Pearl City in the Rashdoll Kingdom.
"Why do I have to do this again?" Asked the boy with a tired expression on his face as he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. This boy"s name was Crio. If only Crio doesn"t have that tired expression on his face that makes him looked like a lifeless zombie he can be considered as a very handsome young man.
Crio had a somewhat grey yet blackish messy hair, a strangely orange colored eyes, a chiseled nose, and face. Any male who sees him will probably beat him out of envy while the girls will pounce at him. Unfortunately, though, his handsome face was ruined by his tired expression.
As the middle-aged man noticed Crio"s gaze, he turned around before patting his head, "Of course you have to so that you can make some friends and not be lonely anymore." The middle-aged man said with a wide smile on his face.
If anyone would to see him right now, they would be really surprised as to see David, known as the Guardian who never smiled was actually smiling towards this boy.
What is a Guardian? A Guardian is a person that can absorb Dragon Energy which can be found everywhere in the Dragon Realm. They can also use Dragon Energy to create a weapon called Dragonsoul which is the weapon embodiment of their own soul fused with Dragon Energy.
And David just happens to be a famous Guardian because of his well-known feats and astonishing strength. He was revered by people all over the continent and was very famous as in famous-famous.
Hearing what David said, Crio looked at him straight into the eyes for a while before he looked away and stared in front of him.
"I don"t need any friends and I don"t feel lonely. I like it this way, cause it"s quiet."
David knew why Crio acts this way, thinking about his past really makes him cry and show pity towards Crio as what he had been through was not as simple as describing it was cruel. It was something much worse that can"t be described with words.
"Whatever you say. But you really have to enter this school though." David said.
"And why is that?"
Crio asked as he stored his personal things inside his inters.p.a.cial ring, it was a type of ring that has personal dimension storage inside, it was not really rare as it only had a small size unless it has a bigger size which will become quite costly.
"You"ll find out when we get there. So have you finished packing yet?" David didn"t tell him the reason but he really didn"t care. He was thankful for this man that he will not think twice if he can do anything for him.
For Crio, David was like a father to him, he was like a hero for him as David was the one that brought him back to the light when he was surrounded by darkness. He was losing his hope at that time but David was there to rescue him making him really thankful.
If anyone was to ask him who he cared the most in this world.
Then his answer would be David not his parents, who were the reason for all of his suffering. Just thinking about it made him remember what he had been through and can"t help but clenched his fist tightly.
David didn"t notice this as he already had his back facing Crio and was heading outside already. He had a large broadsword on his back as he walked with large and confident strides, befitting a great warrior.
Crio then soon followed after him after he carefully closed the door as he left the house. He walks for a few seconds before turning his head towards the house again and looked at it. It was the house he stayed for over two years, and he can"t believe that this will be his first time leaving.
After a few seconds of looking at it silently, he then followed after David as he was already far away.

The Dragon Realm had long been existing for an unknown period of time and the first inhabitants to live here were the Dragons. During ancient times, Dragons were abundant in this realm. As it is all known that every part of a dragon is very precious, they were hunted down to extinction by the different races from the different realms.
Dragons are strong, that is the most accepted fact in the universe, but they won"t stand a chance against all other races combined. They might have been able to put up a good fight, but in the end, they were still killed until they went extinct.
With no more dragons in the Dragon Realm, it was then soon abandoned and was forgotten. At some point in time, humans started to live in the Dragon Realm and also some other races such as elves, giants, gnomes, demi-humans, and others.
They soon occupied the now dragon-free Dragon Realm as their population slowly increased and they developed some sort of hierarchy. They then soon flourished as the Dragon Realm was naturally full of natural resources which lead to the invasion of the beast race.
The Dragon Realm fell into chaos once again as slaughter occurred in every direction and it was at that time that a miracle happened. The souls of the already deceased dragons appeared and granted humanity and other races the power to fight back the invasion.
With the powers given bestowed to them, the humans together with the other races fought against the invasion. There were many deaths, but the victory was soon claimed against the beast race. That was when Guardians are born as they are the ones that would protect this realm with their Dragonsoul weapon.
Time pa.s.sed in a blink of an eye and 5,000 years had elapsed since that time. The Dragon Realm was now far more developed than it was before.
There is only one large continent in the Dragon Realm as it is then divided into several empires and these empires have several kingdoms under them which also governs several dozen cities. The continent was quite vast that it would take a thousand years to travel around it.
The previous generation Guardians then aged even though they have a longer lifespan than other humans because they are cultivating. Cultivation was then divided into seven ranks which are known as; Dragon Disciple, Dragon Elder, Dragon Master, Dragon King, Dragon Emperor, Dragon Ancestor, and Dragon Sage.
Each of these ranks has five sub-ranks which are known represented by stars, the more stars there the stronger the cultivator will be and the longer lifespan they would have.
They had also started to build schools to help those who are able to use Dragon Energy to guide them to become strong so that they can protect their world from the threat of the beast race that would sometimes just appear through a crack in s.p.a.ce they call as Gate.

Crio was standing in front of what was recognized as the number one school in the whole kingdom, Penta Elemento Academia.
Quite a strange name for an academy but he really didn"t care. He won"t bother with them even if they name it in draconic language or any other languages.
What he was intrigue was the large golden statue of a man holding two swords. His body was ridden with scars but there was fierce light in its eyes that makes it look alive.
It was the statue of the founder of the school and one of the 72 Guardians who fought against the beast under the rule of a king. His name was Deodoro Meyers, the Dual Blade Slayer and was fifth in killing the most beast during the war.
This feats of his helped him in developing the school he had founded. With the help of four other guardians Penta Elemento Academia was then founded.
Crio know about this and that was why he was a little bit interested. But it disappeared in an instant as he changed back to his zombie mode.
David just laughed at his expression as he patted his head.
"Don"t worry about it Crio. You"re going to have fun at this school." He enthusiastically said to Crio as he smiled at him.
"Yey....." Crio cheered in an uninterested voice. If only he was not thankful for David, he would have never left the house.
"That"s the spirit Crio. Now let"s get you enrolled now." David then dragged Crio towards the school as they head to the receptionist.
Crio with an uninterested expression on his face just let him be. He knows that from now on, his beautiful life will change.
