the back steet

This world name was Nerath, where things like magic, monsters, holy power, dark creatures, elves,demi-human etc exist.

In the winter season of the northern part of the great Empire of Sun,

A group of nameless kid were wandering around in the city named as "snāw" Which is an old word to denote snow, as being close to the boarder there were no orphanage for the kids to stay so they have to begging people to give them some food for as to not starved to death in this cold winter,

There were a total of eight kids including himself(MC), all the kids in their group don't have names , they call each other by their hair color, treat each other as a family, share whatever they get from begging with each other. Even after all that they barely manage to not starve.

The winter was like a calamity to them

As starving was not the only problem they have to look after but also the freezing snow during the harsh winter, while on the other hand the kids who were with there parents were enjoying hot food, wear warm cloth, play in the snow make snowman etc, The life was just too unfair for them.

They used to like to sleep under one of the bridges where a small river cut the city into two parts i.e the east par and the west part. The east part was full of nobels and the West part was filled with commerners. It was a city which was closed to the empire's border.

Though they were at peace as the neighbouring country was the Holy Empire, the biggest Empire which currently exists, aside from this they have little to zero hostel relationship with any other country.

The Empire of the sun where our Main character was. It is the 4th largest empire in the world with abundant resources and skilled military power which is considered to be the most powerful in the world.

The Sun empire may seem bright with abundant resources and power but as the king was slowly moving towards his death, while yet to decide the next crown prince or princess among his four children with two prince and two princess

Out of them the 2nd son and the 1st princess were having a cut through competition for the crown, while the 1st prince and the 2nd princess were against fighting among siblings for the crown,

Everything was at peace around ten years ago, when the first price was just 9 years old and was the most likely one to take the crown, without other siblings competing more over they even support the first price. Until an accident happened where the first price lost his eyes as well as the ability to walk while other three were gravely injured. They would have died if the guards guarding the city did not scout the area.

The incident was covered up aside from the royals no Nobels were able to get information as to what happened that day.

Some rummers spread that they were fighting among themself while some said that they were attacked by monsters. These rummers did not remain for quite long within two weeks, every rummer was cleared. It remains the mystery till today.

{ Back to the main story}

Our MC group was rather quite unique as every one was of a different race ( human, elfe,fox etc)

The number of dark creatures and monsters increase during winter which majorly damages the border villages. In order to deal with the upcoming wave of monsters, the Empire sent somewhere around 1000 elite knights and 750 mages with 500 priests and the famous daughter of the commander in chief of the Imperial knight Miss. Saya .D. Regar as their leader. The 12th as well as the youngest sword master of the Empire.

Their destination was the border of the northern part of the Empire and for going there they decided to stay in some city, one of them were

"snāw" where our MC and his group were.

To reach the border of North the troops were to travel for three months. They have already departed long ago and are very close to reaching the city of snow "snāw".

On one of the nights our little kids group were in the open field which was close to the city. They were good in direction as well as judging the character of people. They would sometimes even go to hunt in the forest for food, they were not professional but well enough to hunt small animals. Among their group red(elfe) and purple( human)were mage, white( human) and green( elfe) were healer and black ( human/ half demon) was an all round ( by the way black is our MC)

While silver being a demi- human fox has a good physical power.

Brown( thinks that she is a human but is actually a Fairie)

And last but not least Gray ( human/ half-dragon).

They were sitting quietly while enjoying the beautiful sky until someone spoke

" Hey red, I want to know what you did like to become if you were given a chance in life?" Said yellow.

Red replied saying " I would be satisfied as long as I earn enough money to not get starved to eat and wear warm clothes in winter"

The other kids also agreed to what the red said.

Red was the most talkative one among them. Though he did not utter a single word all the way towards the city. Green who was quite sensitive noticed something was wrong with red and asked him whether he was ok.

Red replied as" he is fine" at the same time black touched his forehead and found out that red had a high fewer. It was no different than death to him in this cold winter without any warm place to stay. It was a miracle that he was even able to walk this far.

Black carried him on his back to the city, and asked for help from some people who were still there walking at night. One of them gives them(yellow, white) a common medicine which are good for fewer and can be used by any age. After thanking them, they rushed to the place where red was and gave him the medicine while hoping that everything would be fine like that two days, three days, and week passes but there was no improvement in reds health,

If only they had sufficient medicine and a warm place to stay then the red might not have died that day. All of them cried and decided to bury red under one of the trees outside the city where they used to hangout with red with the help of some kind senior people. On the other hand the knight troops have yet to reach the snāw city.

That day black thought if some one could have just helped them even just by little than red wouldn't have died, he thought that living kind would lead to their own death, only once did I become a villain would I be able to protect what dear to me.....
