"You are very lucky Duke Kevin. Not only does your son possess the family's blessing [Phoenix magic] but all three of your daughters as well!" The cleric says.

"May I see the results please?" Kevin asked, the old man passed the holographic tablet to him.

"Yes, this is impressive indeed." Kevin couldn't help but feel proud, his children would do great things one day.

"I'm sure the king would love to hear the news." Kevin stops smiling and looks at the cleric.

"What do you mean?"

"His son, the crowned prince. There's going to be a celebration for his sixth birthday at the end of the month, there the king will choose his fiance. I'm assuming that you are going to plan an arranged marriage between the prince and your oldest daughter?"

The Duke of Kaslana couldn't help but send a glare at the old fool. An icy blue aura surrounds him as immense rage radiates from his body.

"You are not to tell the king about any of this. Do you understand?"

Feeling the immense pressure coming off the younger man, the cleric quickly nods drenched in sweat.

"Good, I'll be going now. I have a family to look after." And with that, the young man leaves the church. Once the Duke was gone, the old man couldn't help but sigh in relief.

"That... was a close one." He says. A figure dressed in white robes walked up to the old fool.

"That fool hasn't changed a bit." The figure is a man possibly in his early forties. His short black hair is slicked back and his amethyst-colored eyes glistened. "Well, that is the strongest man in this continent for ya."

"Ah, Revan. I-i see that you have returned. How was the mission?"

The man Revan gave the old man a sickening smile. "Perfect~" He takes out an old tome and a vial filled with a strange liquid. "I hope this is all worth it. Do you know how many men I've lost just to get this blood? A lot! And don't get me started on how I got this old-ass book."

Revan tossed the tome on a nearby table before taking a seat. "Why does the church need something like this anyway?"

"Patient my child. All will be revealed in due time. This is all I need from you right now." The old cleric takes a bag filled with gold coins out of his sleeve. "Here's the payment as promised."

"Pleasure doing business with you old timer."

Back at the Kaslana household, in the garden behind the manor, our three protagonists are now starting their training.

"Okay, since we all have wind magic let's master that first," Alyssa says to her two younger sisters.

Touya frowned. "Can't we work on our Phoenix fire magic first?"

"You do realize that we could set everything out here on fire right?" Said, Alyssa.

"Fair point."

Alyssa opens the book she's holding and looks through it for beginners' spells.

"These should do." She says and sets the book down on the grass. "Okay, you two. Before we start, I have worked out a training plan that will benefit all three of us."

"Let's hear it. We should hurry this up so our parents or older brother doesn't get suspicious." Bianka speaks.

"Yeah, I'm tired of Mother babying me. I don't need any more of it." Said Touya.

"Alright then. Since we finished the basics of how to control our mana, we should start learning spells for the element easiest for us. And since we all happen to have wind magic this works out perfectly. Once we've learned the basics of wind magic we'll go on to self-studying our other magic." Alyssa explained. "Any questions?"

Bianka raised her hand. "Since we're like the daughters of the strongest Duke in the kingdom, shouldn't we also learn more about this kingdom? And what not?"

"Do not worry dear sisters. I already have a plan for that."

"You've thought of everything, didn't you." Touya grinned.

"Of course I did. You two would be lost without me. Now, let's get this training session started!"

After messing around with a few spells, Touya accidentally almost blew up the garden.

"Wind Style: Absolute Breeze!" Strong gusts of wind knocked down most of the trees in the vicinity and blew away a significant number of rose bushes away.

"What the fuck knuckles was that!?" Bianka said in disbelief.

"Don't blow up the house!"
