Chapter 23: Riana Elin 1
(Riana POV)
I am Riana Alin, born destined for greatness in the future.
The house where I was born is one of the oldest homes in the world.
Our home, over three thousand years old, has produced many knights and powerful individuals throughout history.
As the only child born to House Alin, I was the heir to this great home.
My father and mother were strict but kind and caring.
I lived a disciplined life from a young age, and when I turned eight, I held a sword for the first time.
At that moment, I felt as if this weapon had been meant for me all along.
The first time I fought my fencing instructor, I defeated him effortlessly.
That day, my talent was acknowledged, and I was considered one of the greatest prodigies in the world, a candidate for reaching the rank of Grandmaster in swordsmanship.
My life continued in this manner—waking up every day at sunrise to train with the sword, followed by lessons on the history of our home and the world.
