I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy



After signing the lease, he left the rental office. He didn't bother checking the apartment in person because he didn't care too much about the logistics about it. He trusted that he would get an apartment in his hands.

Even if it was a shitty one, he would consider it as a bad investment. But he was too lazy to physically go and check the apartment. He was confident that there was no way it would be worse than the slums he grew up in any way.

By the time he finished all of this, it was already noon. He decided to go back to his room in the inn and train for the rest of the day before going to move into the apartment the next day. He quickly got to the inn and went to his room. Once he got into the room, he sat on his bed and started training his magic.

Meanwhile, in Solhaven, an old man was towering above the entire city looking over it. There was another person besides the old man. It was a young girl, the age of 13. She was clinging to the man's hand and was magically floating alongside him.

The man had white hair and a short white beard. He was dressed in a purple robe with golden engravings. It was a regal shield adorned with intricate symbols and designs. At the center, a majestic white rose, representing purity and nobility, bloomed proudly against a backdrop of golden leaves. Above the rose, a golden crown sat royally.

The girl had long black hair that reached her waist. Her entire body was very slim, but it was slim because of malnourishment rather than genetics. However, she seemed to be recovering, since her face and arms were not as skinny as someone with no food would look like. Her purple eyes were filled with worry.

"Is it this place?" He asked. He looked at the girl beside him.

"Grandfather, this place saved me. I was going to die and I survived thanks to the people here. Please don't do any-"

"So it was this place?" He asked.

The girl looked away.

"Anna. I am very disappointed that you have started to care about lives like these that do not matter. I was planning on making you a mage, but now I am forced to let you be just an Aura Knight. Do you not want to make them pay for that?" He asked softly.

She shook her head. He sighed. "Well, we are going to change that. It won't be hard, it will just take some time. For now, look at what punishment the people who made your life so much less than royalty will face." He said.

She tried to look away, but her face wouldn't move. Her will seemed powerless. The man lifted his arm and a huge sphere started to form above him.

The sphere was starting to become so large that people on the ground were starting to notice it. The person in the Magistrate Tower noticed as well. He immediately flew out to see what the cause of this was.

He quickly flew to the center of the problem and saw the girl along with the old man. He noticed the crest on the robe immediately and bowed down.

"This Viscount greets Duke Whitmore. Can I be of any help?" He asked. He didn't dare ask about the massive ice meteor that was floating above them.

The old man looked at the Magistrate.

"4th Circle? Are you the Magistrate of this city?" He asked.

"Yes, Your Grace." The Magistrate answered.

"You may rise." He said.

The Magistrate rose from his kneeling position. It was a very interesting sight since all of this was happening in mid-air. He looked up and noticed the girl beside the old man. He immediately recognized her.

"You are-" He started speaking but saw that she was shaking her head. Unfortunately, the Duke already noticed this.

"So you know my granddaughter. How is it that you are acquainted?" He asked.

The Magistrate immediately felt an intense pressure weighing him down, threatening to pummel him to the ground. He had no choice but to answer.I think you should take a look at

"I saw her and another young boy going to a very good restaurant once. I noticed that she was already a 1st Circle Aura Knight at such a young age and that the young man had a very rare constitution. I commended them for their achievement and paid for their meal." He said.

The pressure on him immediately disappeared. However, the meteor above all of them still persisted.

"Interesting. So who is this young man?" He asked the girl.

The girl shook her head. "I won't tell you," she softly said.

"What?" The duke asked with a slightly irritated voice.

"I won't tell you!" She said louder.

"Fine." He said. Suddenly, the meteor started dropping onto the city. The girl's eyes widened.

"Wait!" 

The meteor stopped in mid-air. 

"So he's here?" He asked. He didn't bother waiting for her answer and looked at the Magistrate.

"What constitution did he have?" The duke asked.

The Magistrate immediately answered, "He had the Aura Pill Constitution."

The duke was very surprised. "There are no current geniuses in the empire with that constitution. It is indeed a very rare constitution. Why did you not recruit him?" He asked.

The Magistrate sighed. "He was too young. He was only 13 or 14 when I saw him."

The Duke shook his head. "This generation is too soft. You will not be able to prosper. It is such a loss to the nation that he will have to die."

Both the Magistrate and the girl looked with shock as the meteor started dropping again.

"You can't do this! There are so many innocent people there!" The girl started screaming.

"Stop shouting, Anna. You are not to disgrace our image." The duke said.

"My name is Daphne! Not Anna! If you don't stop, I will leave the Whitmore Family!" She kept shouting.

The duke didn't pay her heed. "If you do that, what will you achieve? There are countless people trying to be where you are. I am trying to groom you to be the perfect successor to the family and you are worried about the lives of commoners. This is a lesson that you have to learn."

The people on the ground were looking up at the sky, their eyes glued to the meteor that was threatening to fall on them. For the first minute, everyone was confused. No one believed what they saw.

After that, they saw the meteor becoming bigger, and suddenly, panic ensued. Everyone started running out of the city as fast as they could. None of this would really make a difference because of the size of the meteor though.

And then the meteor started falling. As it got closer, people started realizing exactly how huge the meteor was. It was the size of the entire city. It was a little bigger actually. A lot of the people kept running, but the smart people accepted their fate.

The meteor crashed, creating a huge shockwave that flattened the entire landscape around the city. The city itself no longer existed. All that was left in its place was an ice meteor.
