Editing Rinkan no Madoushi:Volume1 Introduction

== Introduction – The Myth of the World's Creation ==

<!-- PG 14 -->

Long, long ago, at the time of legends -

When the gods created the world, three rules were made.

One. The conflict betweens gods isn't allowed to be brought into this would.

Two. The gods aren't allowed to intervene excessively in this world. 

Three. All the gods must give one "present" to this world – a god created the living thing called "Human" for that world.

Other gods prepared "Earth", created "Trees", bestowed "Water" and "Air", and prepared the forces of the spirits of the deceased such as "Fire", "Ice" and "Thunder".

The gods which also created a variety of beasts, created races other than humans such as forests demons, spring woman and fairies.

And one by one, the gifts were decided and before long it became the turn of the new gods.

However, the things that seemed to be necessary for the world was already decided by their predecessors.

So these new gods decided to bring their own personal effects to that world.

The devil Olraido releaed his valuable staff.

"The person who acquires this staff will be given a great power of creation. We'll assume that we can entrust this world to the person who knows how to use it."

The comfort god Retian parted with her favourite harp.

"This harp has the power to touch many hearts. I trust that it will be used responsibly."

The sacred god Iska parted with the jewel that adorned his body.

"I put my blessings into this jewel. The power is divine protection and will support the people who live on this land..

The artisan god Nirvario let go of his old personal hammer.

"This hammer was good for me. It will have the power to fix and forge everything. I don't know whether or not it can be mastered."

The military arts god Seshu gently removed his sword from his back.

"I've decided to provide a weapon that can take revenge and defend oneself. Compared with your gifts, it's hardly a great power, but it will surely be useful.”

At the end the dragon god Dorakeras, thought about it for a while then broke off a square of himself.

"I have no possessions like everyone else. Therefore, I'll give this square of this side."

Many of the gods had respect for the heart of the dragon who went as far as injuring his own body to give a present.

Thus, many dragons were born from the square of the dragon god.

Therefore, dragons were said to be sacred beasts in the world.

No one must violate their territory – it was said.

And so, this world began.
