The impact was great. Sandhya’s eyes blurred and her head was dizzy. She slumped on the ground while holding onto the net. “Are you alright?”She shook her head and tried to get up. “Why didn’t you use your mana layer? I’m amazed you are still standing.” Demi said.A while later her dizziness subsided and her eyes cleared. She saw Demi resting near the post. “How much time did I take?”“10 minutes. Much faster than a normal person.”He gave her water to drink and replenish her energy. “There are 20 minutes left. Do you want to continue or want to get some rest?”“I will continue.”“Then you better use mana layer or else you won’t last.”Demi prepared himself to kick the ball. He gave a quick look to confirm Sandhya is alright and gathered all his energy on his foot. With a swing, his foot touched the ball sending it towards her. Sandhya took a deep calm breath and replayed all the moments where she had practiced with her magic. Regaining her strength and confidence she poured all
*huff… huff… huff…She ran out of that room hastily. She was afraid that if she stayed in that room even a second longer, she would lose all her sane! Those… those heartless demons!“Why…”
Lola answered, "Yes."Serena's face darkened, "We weren't able to capture that biscuit. We haven't even got much clue as well. Although the things we have recovered gave us no clue about his location, but we can use that to declare him as a universal terrorist. Then no one can and will try to cover up for him."That's good to hear."After they finished their dinner Sandhya and Lola went to the Adams harbor. Under the cold breeze of the night, they stood on the cliff near the duck.Lola asked, "So, what's the real thing that you wanted to say? It's not really about that declaring thing, right?""Lola, can you please take care of her?"Lola was perplexed."Why me?""It can only be you."She sighed, "Fine.""She is the one and only witness and clue we have for that incident. We just have to wait until she gets her memories back. She has promised me that she will help me punish those biscuits. And…"In t
"Cough cough… you…"The boy stared at Sandhya while trembling in anger. The other boys who were with him were also terrified after witnessing their leader get defeated by an unknown girl.The boy who was laying on the floor looked towards his subordinates for support saw them retreat a few steps and then run away. He was furious. He shouted, "You damn losers trying to ditch your leader? Just wait… you…""You done?"He turned his head towards the voice and saw the girl standing there without the care of anything."You…"Before he could finish an immense pressure engulfed him. As a demon beast is looking at him with cold hungry eyes. Then he looked at those dark eyes which were staring back at him. He felt like it's trying to devour him. He had never felt anything like that. He cowered backwards and ran away.It was a good thing that the compound of the library was a less crowded area. So, there weren'
After that Lola and Sandhya finally returned to the home. Even though they returned home safely Lola was still worried. It was almost for the time of afternoon service so she became busy with customers. Sandhya also went back to her room. Maybe because of the test that she went through earlier or something else but she felt weak. So, she decided to take a nap. She fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.On the other end…Serena was busy with the academy's daily paper work when two boys entered her office. They are exactly those boys who had gone to that rock after Sandhya and Lola left that place."Reporting chief, there was a weird incident we came across but we weren't able to find the suspect."Serena was reading a document when she heard about it, she raised her head and asked, "Incident? Tell me in detail. What happened?""Chief, when we were patrolling the city, we felt a sudden tremor near the shrine, so we immediately went th
Sandhya understood that Lola must have felt disappointed. So, she apologized, "I am sorry. Even though I had dreams like this before, they were never this long and their effects weren't this big as well, so I didn't think about them much and took it as a side effect of my training."Lola said, "Still, I am not only your teacher but also that person whom Serena has entrusted you. Do you know how I felt when I came to know that you were suffering all of this by yourself?She continued after a pause, "If you found it difficult to talk about it to me I understand but at least you could have said about it to Sere. You have no idea how worried and scared she was when she came to your room and saw you in that state. I was busy preparing lunch when I saw her run to me all anxious and pulled me with her so that I could tell her what was happening with you. When in reality I am learning about it right now. Sandhya, I am really upset about it."She turned her head towards
Serena who had proudly said that no one before had been able to score above 60% in their written exam felt her ego being crushed badly. The questions she asked were all from their previous exams. Is their exam really tough? Nah… it's just that no one has ever tried to score more than 60% since they can score the rest by the practical exam. If that's the case then their question needs serious revision. How can they proudly say that their entrance exam is hardest when a girl who has only laid its foundation of magic and is learning their language not more than four months ago scored above 60% in her first try?! Serena sat there silently while looking at Sandhya intently.Sandhya, who was still waiting for Serena to declare the result of the little test, felt pressured under her Scrutinizing gaze. What happened? Why is she staring at her so intensely? Did she pass or did she fail? She finally mustered up her courage and asked, "Sis, what happened? What is the result? Why
Sandhya gulped in horror. During study and training, there's only one thing which is unforgivable in Lola's eyes and that is 'DISTRACTION'!Lola looked at Sandhya with squinted eyes. Sandhya panicked and said, "Haha, what are you saying, Sis? I am not distracted. I was just thinking deeply about what you were saying just now."There was no change in Lola's expression like she didn't believe it."Is that so?""Yes, yes, There's nothing else."She was thinking about what to do next when they heard uncle Han called Lola for something. Sandhya got the excuse she was looking for. She immediately distracted her, "Sis, uncle is calling you and I think we should take a little break. We are studying continuously for some time. What do you think?"She asked with a mischievous grin on her lips. Lola rolled her eyes. The more days Sandhya is spending with Serena she is turning into more and more like her."Fine, review the things I taught you jus
The impact was great. Sandhya’s eyes blurred and her head was dizzy. She slumped on the ground while holding onto the net. “Are you alright?”She shook her head and tried to get up. “Why didn’t you use your mana layer? I’m amazed you are still standing.” Demi said.A while later her dizziness subsided and her eyes cleared. She saw Demi resting near the post. “How much time did I take?”“10 minutes.

Sandhya nodded and watched the whole fight. The time they had for the fight ended and the result was a draw. Both of them were equally matched and both of them had sustained some damage. The fight ended and the crowd dispersed. Jazz and Sandhya went to them. Jazz handed both of them a healing crystal to treat the wounds.“That was a nice fight. Both of you must have enjoyed it.”“You were late though.” Said Wynn. Her eyes landed on her tag and her weapon.“You are a patrol member?” “Yep, just joined today. Sorry, I didn’t make it on time. But I enjoyed watching you two nonetheless.”Sandhya and Jazz went towards the playing grounds. On the way, they met some troublemakers but Jazz was able to pacify them. Sandhya watched and noticed how he was doing it so that she could apply those techniques. They were walking beside a football ground when a ball hit Sandhya with tremendous speed. Sandhya put up her mana layer but the timing was slow. She was pushed back quite some meter away. Wh
She said this loudly so that each and everyone present in the classroom could hear her. The student's jaws dropped after hearing this. They indeed had noticed it and they also knew the real incident but who could tell these mind-sick girls that are way head over heels about Kane.Some boys couldn’t stop their laughs so muffled sounds of laughter echoed in the room. Those girls glared at Sandhya and those boys who dared to laugh.‘Did she just call them crazy?’ Thought those girls in their mind.Those boys also stopped laughing instantly knowing that if they didn’t then it might become their last laugh.Sandhya waited for Kane to speak.‘Say something. At least say a word so that I can clean this mess up.’ Sandhya yelled at Kane in her mind. But when she didn’t even see a shift in Kane’s face, she decided to initiate it herself.“Is there anything between us, Kane?”She asked and slammed the desk to get his attention. Kane finally looked at her. He stared at her deep brown eyes who wer
Lola rolled her eyes. No doubt about it she is turning like her sly best friend. They are sisters after all. …. The next day Sandhya and lanlan were walking to the academy when Sandhya asked, “What happened about the duel between you and that girl named Wynn?” “We’ll duel in today's break at the practice ground before our lessons.” Said Lanlan. When they reached the entrance gate, they saw Wynn and her two friends standing there waiting for someone or maybe for them? “You are here.” She said looking at them. “I thought you may not come so I was waiting here to confirm but looks like you didn’t back off on your words.” Lanlan only returned it with a smile. “All the best to both of you.” Said Sandhya to both of them. “I was also waiting for you. I wanted to invite you to see the match.” Said Wynn. “Sure, I will be present there.” Wynn nodded and said to lanlan, “Let’s go.” Lanlan sighed and they went to their classrooms. “You came.” Sandhya turned her head and saw Aina st
Ren had a weird expression on her face when Sandhya showed her the medicine she was holding, “The wound looked deep so went to bring medicine. While returning I came across this stall who was selling these so I bought them.” Ren looked at Sandhya’s calm face as if it’s her daily job buying medicine and sweet potatoes. She internally facepalmed herself. “Well, come in.” Sandhya nodded and entered the house. The house was nicely furnished with just the daily necessities. The front door opens directly to the living area. She put the baked potatoes on the table and her bag on a chair while Ren went into the kitchen to wash her wound. Some time passed and Sandhya entered the kitchen. Ren was standing in front of the faucet with her eyes closed while trying to put her hand underwater. She looked like a reluctant kid who doesn’t want to take her injection. ‘It will take forever.’ She sighed and took a small cloth to clean the wound. Since Ren was busy deciding she didn’t notice Sandhy
Ren puffed her cheeks up while Sandhya shrugged her shoulders.“Shall we go now?”“Yeah…”When they got out of the academy building Ren asked, “Wouldn’t you like to visit the headmistress?”“Hm? Why?”“To tell her about this incident. Felicita and Luisa might try to smear your name. If you tell the headmistress everything beforehand then you may not get punished.”“I don’t think so.” Sandhya replied.“Why?”“First of all, even though they had initiated the fight and I was trying to defend, the classroom got damaged in which I was a part. So, technically I should be punished for this as well or students will take the rules lightly.Second, the incident happened during lunch break and no one was seriously injured so higher-ups may not put much stress on it. They may get it closed saying that this was just a small fe
She walked towards her desk. There was still some distance between her and the desk when she sensed danger and instinctively leaped two steps back.Several wooden swords hit the place where Sandhya was a moment ago. “What the…” She looked at the front to see what was going on. Two thick branches came into her view moving towards her with tremendous speed. She ducked. A deep frown etched on her face.‘Swoosh.’Another thick branch hit her from one side. Sandhya knocked on to a desk and toppled. She activated her mana layer and blocked it but it was late. Her hands started to bleed due to the cuts made by the branches.‘Fwish…’Another wave of wooden arrows swarmed on her from various directions. She rolled away. The swords pierced into the hardwood desk. Thankfully no one was sitting in that area.Sandhya heard crackling sounds beneath her. Getting up she stepped far aw
Miss Selly entered to take class. She glanced towards Kane’s desk to see if Sandhya is still sitting there. Her eyes widened for a second and turned into a subtle smile. “So, where were we last time? ...” During the lunch break, more students were present in the classroom than the day before. Sandhya guessed they must be waiting to see if Luisa and Felicita will do something for yesterday’s humiliation. Instead, something else happened which startled them. A girl wearing senior’s uniform entered the classroom seemingly searching for someone. When her eyes landed on Sandhya her eyes lit up and she pointed at her. “You, the girl sitting beside 11th star come with me.” This time it was Sandhya who was dumbstruck. She pointed at herself and asked, “Me?” “Is there anyone else sitting beside 11th star? Follow me.” She turned and walked away. Without any clue Sandhya followed and ran out of the classroom. She was walking
“You are late.”“Yeah, did I make you wait for long?”Lanlan shook her head.“Nope. I also got here a few moments ago.”Sandhya noticed that lanlan was less energetic than usual.“What happened? You look drained.”Lanlan sighed, “Yeah, so much for coming first in the entrance exam. Everyone’s eyes were kind of glued on to me. They were waiting like vultures for me to make a mistake so that they could tear me up. But thanks to Lola’s tuition it saved me a lot.”After a momentary silence, she asked, “What about you? You also look worn out.”Sandhya looked at the sky, there was some time before evening.“Nothing much. It seems like we faced the same storm but our places were different?”Lanlan laughed, “I see.”As they were walking towards Sandhya noticed Serena near the entrance gate talking
