Bakuto was born as a commoner on the border of the kingdom. Born of a lumberjack's child, Bakuto spent his childhood in the woods with his father. Chopping trees, and providing lumber for the towns around the clover kingdom.
Bakuto's father was an honest man who always worked hard. The man possessed greater strength than anyone else. Compared to his father, Bakuto is tiny. The man stood nearly eight feet tall and was a goliath of a man. Hurling trees around all day just made him even stronger.
Nobles saw Bakuto's father as a freak of nature and feared him because he was 'different'. Yet the wood he gathered was good enough they kept asking him to bring more. Always shouting cruel things at Bakuto and his father. But everytime Bakuto would get angry and shout back his father would smack him in the head to get him to stop. "Don't upset the nobles! Their words are only small, we are big. Don't let them get to you. Be bigger." his father always had said to Bakuto.

A mysterious fellow one day when Bakuto was twelve had asked for a special project from Bakuto's father. A rare tree within a fiery strong magic was region. A magic tree that couldn't burn even through its surroundings was with volcanic regions.
Twelve days and Twelve nights and Bakuto's father finished the mission and got this fellow his wood. Bakuto accompanied his father to the capital this day to sell this wood to the fellow who asked for it. The mysterious fellow was a nobleman who had been kicked out of Clover years ago but lived within other noble families that harbored him in. When they show up to give him the magic wood. Instead of paying for the wood, he killed Bakuto's father in a blink of an eye. And captured Bakuto.

This man was creating weapons and selling them to criminals and the other kingdoms outside of clover. Bakuto was nearly sold to the diamond kingdom when the magic knights stopped it from happening. This man killed himself before getting caught. Bakuto never learned his name, only that he was working with the diamond kingdom to arm criminals within clover with magical weapons.

Bakuto had to bury his own father next to the house he was born in. By the biggest tree of the forest Bakuto lived his entire life. The knight that saved Bakuto, gave him their deepest condolences. Told Bakuto to become a magic knight, to prevent others from going through Bakuto's trauma. So Bakuto spent time on his own training to become a magic knight.

He showed up to some random town where grimoires choose their wizards. Bakuto spent five years training and learning how to become a magic knight. Knowing he needed his own Grimore. and after asking around he found a town that did just that. Those who saw him enter thought little of him other than he was a wildman coming out of the forest trying to get a grimoire. Thinking of him being a fool that would never get chosen.
In this selection Bakuto's grimoire was the first to appear. And rather forcefully it flew out and knocked Bakuto out of the building the grimoire ceremony was held in. A solid gold book, but unlike others did not possess a clover on it of any kind. Instead it was a picture of the sun. Bakuto tried to open the book and it sealed itself closed and locked itself. The book picked Bakuto but refused to open for him. Not for the lack of him trying. First try to open it with brute force.
There was only one spell that was written on the back of the book. 'Sparks'. Bakuto went town to town having his grimoire examined. Trying to get anyone to help him open it up and to learn anything about the book even if he couldn't open it. Learning the name of his magic even though he keeps calling it 'flame' magic instead of calling it Sun flame magic.

The sparks are the starting to a much bigger fire in the future scholar told him in his travels. Telling Bakuto within time he will open the book once it is ready or once he is strong enough to open it. So with only one spell to use Bakuto trained until he had create own spells out of the base work of the first spell. He could blind and annoyingly burn someone or he could create a ball of fire out compressing the spell down.
Bakuto once deemed he had a spell strong enough for the entrance exams, and possessed enough skills to use his mana and combat to make up for the lack of magic powers he has.

So he is off to become a magic knight!
