The King of Tricks and Magic

Chapter 2: The Beginning

13th day of cow month in the year 1246, the Ablux continent. The night at the great magical forest of Everdeen is indeed beautiful, with the stars shining above, filling up the entire sky. The cool and refreshing wind slowly breeze past, it is a one peaceful and serene night.

In the middle of the peaceful night, inside the great magical forest of Everdeen, a carriage is running fast as if they’re getting chased by something, Brukk! something fell from the carriage as the carriage is moving so fast that everything inside became unstable, as the thing hell, the carriage keeps on going as they’re in a very much hurry as what could be seen by their speed. As the carriage began to disappear from view, the thing that fell from the carriage moved, and it turns out the thing that fell from the carriage is actually a person that fell because of the impact by the carriage. When it turned course, the person seemed to be fainted because of the falling impact.

Suddenly, a light shone in the middle of the night right to the body of the person who fainted, and the person woke up from his deep slumber. As he’s still half-conscious about the situation he’s in, he raises his body to a sitting position as he starts to collect all of his conscious.

“Where in the world am I?”

all he could remember is he’s going to show the world figures his greatest trick of magic with the use of teleportation wristband he had made, he who excels at all types of knowledge to make all kinds of tricks that could deceive people’s mind, he is the legendary magician Oz.

As he remembered, he invented the technology of teleportation when he is wondering about the myth of the magic array of the old era, as he dives the world of myth, he found that the position of the magic array has a system that quite similar to the programming of computers, so with his knowledge, he tries to formulate a program consists of the knowledge of the magic arrays and the modern programming, and he succeed!

With the invention he made, he’s planning to use it as his new tricks at his magic shows, he’s gonna prove to the world that Oz the legendary magician has risen to the realm of real magic! in the magic show as he appeared with teleportation or the first time in the stage, and he substitutes himself with the doll with the second time, he’s about to teleport himself to the stage but something strange occurred when he about to teleport, the wristband starts to buzz and sending painful electric statics to his hand, and when the pain’s gone he awakes in a place he doesn’t recognize.

(This place feels weird)

!!!!?????

(….)

(Don’t tell me, this is not earth? calm, calm down, let’s think this through, let’s try summoning this so-called magic card first.)

Oz imagines a deck of card to appear at his hand and suddenly, *poof* a deck of gold card with a magic-like feeling appeared on his hand.

(Holy crap! It seems that I seriously got teleported to another world!)

The magic card that appeared at Oz’s hand does look magical and mystical, the magic card had a rich golden color and a complicated magic rune-like drawings imprinted on every back of the card.

Different from the usual card decks, the magic card had only 57 cards that consist of As to King, and Joker but there is 1 card that had a blue gold color design.

When Oz about to flip the card to see what it is, a screen suddenly popped out from the card right when Oz flipped it.
