After that, Elvin asks the old man,
"Uncle, what is the secret of this magical world?"
The old man, Warmeo, replies,
"This world is a maze of illusions. From here, only you must find the way out."
Then he says,
"I will teach you magic, but first, let us have breakfast."
They sit down and eat together.
After a while, Elvin asks,
"Uncle, what do you do here?"
Warmeo replies,
"Elvin, my son, I guide people who come here from the real world. I teach them magic so they can return to their own world. But sadly, if someone does not learn this magic properly, they remain trapped here forever."
Then he adds,
"So far, no one has ever escaped this magical world. You are the twenty-thousandth person I am going to teach."
Elvin is shocked.
Warmeo continues,
"My son Elvin, stay away from the king's son of this world. He is cruel and wicked. He possesses Infinite Magic."
Elvin asks,
"What is Infinite Magic?"
Warmeo replies,
"Infinite Magic is a power that can control a person's mind and force them to do whatever the magician wants."
He adds,
"That prince's name is Jofra, and his father, the King of Stella, is even worse. People call him the evil ruler of the magical world."
After that, Warmeo says,
"Come, my son. I will begin teaching you magic."
First, he trains Elvin to calm his mind.
Then he gives him a magic book and says,
"Remember, there are two ways to learn magic—one is the shortcut, and the other is the long path. The shortcut teaches quickly, but it brings no real benefit. Learn with patience."
Elvin replies respectfully,
"Yes, Uncle Warmeo."
Then Elvin says,
"Come, Uncle, let us go outside for a while."
Warmeo agrees.
As Elvin steps outside, he sees people flying in the sky. Some move freely through the air. Some creatures are half-human and half-animal, and fairies glow as they fly everywhere.
Elvin looks around and says,
"Uncle, this world is truly amazing."
Warmeo replies,
"Elvin, my son, all of this is only an illusion of the eyes."
From a distance, a girl calls out,
"Hello, Uncle Warmeo. How are you?"
Warmeo replies,
"I am fine. How are you? And how is my friend Marnus?"
The girl answers,
"He is fine, Uncle,"
and then leaves.
Elvin asks,
"Uncle, who was she?"
Warmeo replies,
"She is my friend's daughter. Her name is Meera, and she knows Lido Magic."
Elvin asks,
"What is Lido Magic?"
Warmeo replies,
"Lido Magic can paralyze a person for a few moments. It can also transfer someone to another world for a short time."
Elvin says in amazement,
"Oh, Uncle, that really is incredible magic."
Then he asks,
"Uncle, what magic do you know?"
Warmeo replies,
"My son Elvin, I possess the Sigil of Truth magic."
He explains,
"This magic can recognize other people's spells, break magic, and help escape from powerful illusions. It is the greatest form of magic. My master—the True Master—taught it to me."
Elvin asks,
"What was the True Master's name?"
Warmeo replies,
"His name was something like Giso… I do not remember clearly. That was nearly twenty-five thousand years ago."
Elvin is shocked.
"Twenty-five thousand years ago?"
Warmeo nods.
"Yes, my son."
Elvin then asks,
"Uncle, how old are you?"
Warmeo replies,
"I do not know exactly… but probably more than fifty thousand years."
Elvin says in disbelief,
"Oh my God… you have lived for so many years!"
After that, they return to the house.
Warmeo then hands Elvin a strange book and says,
"Come, Elvin, my son. I am giving you a special book. Its name is The Lily Black Magic Book. Read it carefully—and never read it in front of anyone."
Elvin asks,
"But why, Uncle?"
Warmeo replies quietly,
"This book holds a secret that I cannot tell you right now,"
and he walks away.
What happened next?
Did Elvin truly begin learning magic?
What secret does The Lily Black Magic Book hide?
Will a new twist change Elvin's fate forever?
