Ixen's P.O.V.

I'm Ixen , I have a father and no mother. Father said that my mother died after I born and she lost lot of blood.

many people hates me and my father. My father is a traveler and a hunter but the people live at our town hates him because they said he betrayed the town for a reason.

My father, Guther Archester , traveled somewhere yesterday's night so maybe tomorrow or next day he will be here at home.

We are just poor , our house is just a nipa hut made of bamboo and hay or banana leaves.

Every kids in here are going to school while me is working. I'm trying to have friends but they still hated me.

I carry jars full of water to every house and selling it. Sometimes I help selling crops or farming and many more. I work so we have something to eat everyday.

I went out of my house carrying two jars tied with rope and tied at a bamboo stick.
I walked to the river near by the town.

I put the jars down and walked up to the river . I scooped water and drank it.

While I was filling the jar their are kids playing near by . The kids grabbed pebbles .''Look..that girl over there isn't she the daughter of the hunter here?'' The kid whispered to his friends. his friends agreed.

I carried up the jars then the kids threw pebbles to me. I just ignore them. I continued walking to the market. I put the jars down. I sold the water house to house.

The Sun was setting . My father walked in .I ran up at him and gave him a big hug.
I removed his bags and put them down.
''I cooked dinner.'' I told him calmly that tomorrow is my birthday.

~After several hours, The sun was rising..

I woke up earlier. I walked out of the house singing happy birthday to me while sparring.

My father woke up and walked out of the house. He greeted me ''Happy birthday Ixen!''. ''Thank you, Father''

He dragged me gently inside the house.''Sit down'' he was looking for something inside a cabinet.

''I wanted to tell you something..please don't get angry..'' he said and sat behind me.

''I am not your real father, Ixen. I'm just your adopted father.'' he said covering his eyes.

''Your real mother gave you to me. She said I will tell all things about them and you.'' He added.

''You are Ixen Afrael Cas'Lavender Archester. Archester is not my real last name.''

''Red Lavender is your mother's name. She died because of an illness. She was with you that time . ''

''You are an Elemental God's or Gathos' granddaughter.''

''g-granddaughter..'' I looked down.

''look umm.. I'm a real Hunter like what people said in this town. ''

''Your Mother said that You will be the one who will defeat the Demon God or Azakura. He kidnapped your grandfather.'' He said.

He put a necklace on my neck. ''this is your mother's necklace.'' He gave me a rolled paper.

''You should go to Elymas Kingdom. ''

''How about you father?'' A single tear rolled down on my cheek.

''See. After I hide you..The Demon God will kill me. You should have to go now.'' He said hugging me.

''Father.. I understood. I will go there. But don't die.'' He nodded giving a long sword to me.
