Chapter 54: Vol 1 Recap (As Narrated By A Future Historian)

An excerpt from the biography of Hugo Greenwood.
Chapter 1
The Genius Child
Historians agreed that even from the beginning of his childhood, Hugo Greenwood had already proven himself to be an exceptional individual.
Easily mastering basic magic when he was just three or four years old, it demonstrated the awe-inspiring talent he possessed in the art, a talent that he shared with his older sister, Marina Greenwood. Both were magical geniuses in their own right, though most historians agree that if their age were to be equalized, the former would come out on top.
When he was five or six years of age, the young genius convinced his parents to adopt the Izurd named Sherry. Their meeting was by complete accident, with some of the more romantically minded in the opinion that he fell in love with her at first sight. Now, certainly, the concept of a child that age being able to fall in love at all was questionable, but some records suggested that the man, even in his early youth, was already the great lover he would be once he was an adult. His charms made both his mother and sister love him and it wouldn’t be at odds to consider that he would conquer the demoness as well. And certainly, by saving her from her abusive adoptive grandmother, it was enough for her to fall in love with him.
Some time after that, his little sister was born. Erika Greenwood. Her story would be little in this chapter, but rest assured, she would be one of the key figures in Hugo Greenwood’s life.

Now, we shall skip a few years, where Sherry Izurdia left him for the Demon Continent. It all came to be by the arrival of the Nerthusian named Myrilla. The demoness was an old friend of Hugo’s parents and she had been called to confirm that Sherry was indeed an Izurd. With her absurd strength that defied explanation, even without any visible sign that she was a nonhuman, like a horn or wings, her new adoptive parents swiftly wrote a letter to the demoness.
Historians had speculated much on why the charming ladykiller of a boy didn’t stop her from doing so. Some believed she was simply too stubborn of a girl to be dissuaded from her path, even with the boy’s immense charm. Others believed he wanted her gone so he could have other girls to woo. As for this writer’s personal opinion, I believed he simply wanted her to find her own path, not bind to her just because he had saved her.
We then skipped a few years ahead some more, around when Hugo Greenwood was around ten years old or so. It was then that he faced his first trial — the kidnapping of his older sister by Vera Marjoram, the member of the Magocracy’s ruling council at the time.
At that time, he had invented his very first signature magic. Boom Cannon. Ten years old and he was already a Master-level mage. It was proof of his indisputable talent in magic that would aid him in becoming one of the strongest in existence in his generations. And if that wasn’t enough, he soon made his first mark in history by slaying the Council mage, albeit with the sacrifice of his parents’ lives. In this humble historian’s opinion, they had made a great mistake overlooking his talent, only looking for the talent of his elder sister instead.
Even so, it wasn’t enough for the young man. He believed he could’ve been stronger. The young man began his journey there. Realizing his weakness, he left his now rescued elder sister.
It was here that some characterized the man as no better than a power-obsessed mage that was selfish enough to leave his family when they needed him the most. But, once again, in this writer’s humble opinion, I believed he was simply making a rash decision in the heat of the moment. Grieving the death of his parents, he left his family in sorrow, believing he wasn’t worthy to be with them. And this interpretation of mine is backed by future events I shall deliberate on later.
For now, let us skip the debates and continue on further into this man’s journey in life.
