We see a boy who's about 5 years old, roaming the streets of Orario. He's hungry and in pain physically and mentally. The loss of his familia and family had caused the boy to become an orphan. No one wanted to adopt him. His mother and aunt were known as the incarnations of magic, magic that even surpasses those of elves which should be impossible. His father's side was no different, his uncle and father were also talented but not with magic. They were both legendary sword wielders of Orario, their skills can almost compare to those of the heroes of legends. Now why did people not want the boy? He was certainly strong and talented enough right? Correct, but the boy had a hunger in his eyes. One that hungers for power, and the other that hungers for protection. Many say he was cursed by the Black Dragon itself, so having the boy in their familia would cause great misfortune.

Bell POV
I wish my familia was still here, I didn't even get to say goodbye..Uncle Zald, Aunt Alfia, Mom, Dad, Grandpa and Grandma. What should I do now? People don't want me because of this stupid curse. My eyes used to be like my mother's grey(right eye) and green(left eye). But ever since I got that dream my eyes changed into blood red, just like that dragon's! Now people all look at me out of fear.

-growl-

"Oh? I'm hungry again..let's see what I can find in the trash" Bell thought while digging through the trash, "great, nothing"

"Hey!" A person called out. Bell looked up to see a drunk person walking up to him

"Come with me kid, you can definitely sell for a decent price" the person said between slurs. Bell just looked at the man

"I said come here kid! I won't ask again" the person demanded

The person was about to hit Bell, but he heard a voice call out

"Stop" a shadow called out, the shadow materialized to reveal a cloaked figure

"Huh! You don't scare me" the person said. The hooded figure took off the hood to reveal a skeleton. This caused the person to run in fear. But Bell he just stood there.

"Boy, are you not scared?" The cloaked figure said

"No, why should I be scared? I have nothing to lose" Bell said casually

"Hmm, so this is the 'cursed one' that people have been scared about, he just seems like an innocent child, but why has Lord Ouranos tasked me to find the boy" the hooded figure thought

"Boy, what is you name?" The cloaked figure asked

"Bell, Bell Cranel. But you probably know me by the nickname others give me, ghost of the Zeus Familia." Bell said, "or cursed one"

"Then you shall call me Fels or Cat of Altena, Lord Ouranos has ordered me to find you" Fels explained

"Why?" Bell asked

"Well, you must come with me if you wish to find out" Fels replied

"Very well, lead the way" Bell said while making a gesture with his hand

Time Skip - Ouranos's Chamber
Bell and Fels had just arrived to Ouranos's Chamber, now they were waiting for the god to show up

"Wait here, I shall go call Lord Ouranos" Fels said while walking to the back

Bell looked around and saw the oddly plain room. The only thing that stood out the most was the big throne.

"We are here" a voice called out, stepping out the door was Fels and Ouranos

"Ah, Bell it's a pleasure to finally meet you" Ouranos said, he gestured for Bell to sit down.

"Now, I believe you have some questions? I'll try my best to answer them" Ouranos said

"Why do you need me?" Bell asked immediately

"That will be answered soon, do you have any other questions?" Ouranos asked

No, I just want to know why you need me" Bell asked

"Very well, I need you because I have seen your pain young boy, so I have an offer. Join my familia" Ouranos offered, Bell could feel the divine aura of the god standing in front of him.

"Why me?! I'm cursed! Your have heard of me so why!" Bell asked in frustration

"That's the reason young one, I will show you that you are not a curse, but a blessing" Ouranos declared, "don't let those insults weigh you down, with me and Fels with you we can show you your real destiny"

"So young one, will you join me? And help us protect Orario?" Ouranos said while holding out his hand

"I will" Bell said with a burning determination

"Very well, I shall give you my falna" Ouranos said while gesturing Bell to remove his shirt

Ouranos was surprised at Bell's 2 skills. The first one 'Curse of The Dragon' no other information was given, then 'Copy' it was like the copy skill his aunt had.

"Here Bell" Ouranos said while handing Bell the piece of paper

Bell was beyond shocked at his skills. His copy skill? It was the same one his Aunt had. But Curse of The Dragon? I should feel more worried about it but I don't, I just want to get stronger even more

"Lord Ouranos, when can I start?" Bell asked, "the city won't protect itself"

"Well, let's not keep the city waiting then? Fels show Bell to his room. Then we can get started" Ournaos said

This was the birth of Orario's fallen angel. The angel who fell from grace, but still rose to the top. The start of a new dawn in Orario, the rising dawn.

AN: yes, yin and yang! I just did it for the life and death type concept. Also from my understanding Alfia never had a copy skill, it was just her pure talent...but I decided to make it a skill for Bell because it would be easier to explain.

Also I'm sorry for randomly disappearing, been busy with school specifically chemistry. The school decided to change everyone's schedule so the week was pretty wack
