Noel
"Your majesty!"
Madam Ruzka called as she stood up from her seat. Izfar who was with her also stood up, his face brightened in delight. Noel emerged from the circle shaped ankh below him in his spirit form. Upon seeing the sage and the prime minister, he smiled brightly.
"It's been awhile. How have you guys been?"
He asked first. Izfar stepped in front of him and bowed down.
"All Hail to His Majesty, the Emperor!" Was the first thing Izfar said out of respect to the Great Emperor of Ishtiya’ who’s hovering in front of him. Although Noel was in his soul form, the authority continuously oozes out from him, indicating absolute leadership.
Noel chuckled. “Please, cease this. We don’t have much time, don’t we? I’ll have your pleasentries when I returned in my physical form.”
“Indeed.” Izfar stood up and curtly adjusted his long robe—which reached down below his feet to the fl
NoelNoel wailed, in a mysterious, unknown tone.Was he wailing because he was sent home early by his club leader? Or his wails sounded more like he’s moaning in happiness because Irya' brought him the sweets that Ricky made for her out of gratitude?Pretty close, but that's not it.The cause of him wailing as he continued on kicking the air while rolling vigorously on the bed was the fact of the unending memory clip of the second hand embarrassment he experienced that was playing in his head since earlier.What did he do?Well, not only he felt guilty having a nosebleed in front of his colleague, which was bearable, because nosebleed are a common feat in summer, he also experienced the most embarrassing moment in his life, by crying, inelegantly, in front of a person he wasn't close to. He was caught up in the moment and even dared to make contact with none other than the person he despised, which was Ricky Kruger.He sat up ab
NoelIn the distance, the sound of crickets slowly died, as if giving him space to start his story."As the child born from the night, we have tremendous magic power in our bodies, parallel to our mystical title."Noel clenched both of his hands together and rested it on his lap."However, when we were born, our young bodies couldn't contain that magic power, so our creator decided to separate the magic power into someone else, that is our other half, the Sol."Irya' listened enthusiastically. Her small hands were clenched on her lap and she stopped eating the sweets.All the time, Noel explained to Irya' using "we, us, our...", because the child of night were born from the same pieces.Apart from having the same night colored hair and lunar grey eyes, one child of night won't live to meet another child, as one's death indicates the birth of another. Noel was the recent child of the night that was born.And Griselda, was his fi
Ricky"Oh...."Ricky staggered.In his hand, was a piece of paper written with huge and bubbly letter saying "Thank you. My name is Irya'." with a little heart at the end of the sentence.He stared, wondering whether this day was the best day of his life. Did he do anything good these past few days? He didn't bully anyone and didn't hook up with anyone so maybe that counts.Still, he brought the piece of paper close to his chest. He didn't care whether the sweets, along with the whole tray disappeared or something, what he knew is that he was happy that night.He then proceed to walk to the kitchen stove as he noticed a big pan was placed on it when he first entered the kitchen. He opened the lid."Tonight's dinner is grilled chicken, huh? That looks delicious."He grinned, excitedly looking at the mixture of largely cut chicken breast, potatoes and asparagus drizzled with olive oil and some black pepper. The surface was slight
NoelThe night was silent, while occasionally being accompanied by the gust of wind, the crickets sound slowly quiet down, as if admiring something.In a distance, a figure of a young man emerged. Although he only wore a casual outfit of a white long sleeved shirt paired with black trousers and grey long cardigan, the clothes didn't even smear the beauty that the man holds.He stepped along the empty sidewalk. In a distance, he looked ethereal, as if a spirit was trudging on the earth, sightseeing the beautiful night scenery of the mundane world.It was just Noel though.He sneezed when the cold summer wind hit him."Kuh.... It's so cold.... I wonder why I go out right now..." He grunted.Back home, he was having symptoms of unable to sleep, mainly because he couldn't settle down after gotten so much Mana in him. So he decided to take a walk to calm himself down and get him to get tired for easier sleep."I really should be car
NoelIn that moment, Noel knew very well that his covers were all blown. Ricky might have even be there when he fought that boy earlier, it's just Noel was too busy to even realize it. He might even see him casting some few spells so making excuses to escape the scene sounded impossible.Truly, impossible.Noel leered towards Ricky behind his fingers. He looked shocked, of course he will. No one expected that the nerd that was a target of bullying even on the first day of the university could be a mage.He brushed his long hair and flipped it backwards as he stared straight at Ricky."Yes, I am."He answered simply.Even if Ricky knew about him being abnormal, there's nothing that a mere mortal could do to him. A sudden thought of Ricky being his Sol resurfaced in his mind. He quickly shook it off as he clenched his fist. No, he's not his Sol.Not yet."Listen, you weren't supposed to know about this. So..." He reached o
HOWL!The blow of the horn from the student council room indicates the last day of the festival. As usual, students were busy working at their venue while trying to satisfy the mysteriously unending flow of visitors even though it was the last day.Shouldn't the last day be the time where visitors were the least? What's wrong with the algorithm?And as usual, the yearly race which allows visitors to participate and win prizes were held. Though, there might be some slight difference to it, thanks to the new student council president, Agatha Cassius' suggestion."How can they expect us, a group of boys to bake something?"Adam grunted.That year race, Agatha suggested that each venue will bake sweets using three different fruits and have the race participants guess them all in order to proceed to the next checkpoint."And 10 checkpoints at that? He’s crazy."Adam muttered again.Ricky was only able to nod his head we
RickyEven though the race had started, the haunted house still opened to accept visitors. It's just the number of the members managing the house were reduced to take care of the checkpoint. From what Ricky heard from the other members, some of the participants had reached their checkpoint and was playing the game that they had prepared.Ricky stood up as he gave the visitors a glowing bangle shaped stick and asked them to wear it on their wrist to avoid getting lost inside the haunted house. This was because apart from the premises that was built outside the building, their haunted house was the biggest inner premise in the university by renting a whole five tutorial rooms and merging them into their venue.The success of renting the spot was also due to Ricky's group members donation. Their group were actually just some spoiled rich kids who just like to extort money from others rather than asking from their parents.Yeah.Ricky sat on the chair
Noel"Thank you, please come again."Noel said cheerfully towards a three tailed dog who was his visitor of the library. It barked and wagged its tail happily before disappearing behind the wooden entrance door.Not long after that, another visitor went in, one after another and indulge themselves in reading books.The nights at the library became fairly busy. After Noel's Mana reserve had restored, he decided to freely open the library door which was actually a dimensional gate to ten other dimensions near earth, resulting in big increase in visitors from the past three weeks after the opening.A snake-like creature slithered towards Noel and thumped a stack of three books on the reception desk."Are you borrowing all of these?"Noel asked while taking the books to put a borrower seal on it. It was quite damp due to the wet body of the serpent.The serpent nodded and slithered its tongue. Noel smiled."Understood. Then,
