Monday morning and the sun is up, the birds are busy in the world outside, but it seems the tenants inside room SC01 of the Special Class Division still haven’t stirred.
Finally, a door in the middle of the hall bursts opens, and out runs Sebastian in a rumpled uniform. Behind him trails a young girl looking flustered as she runs after her master.
“Wake up!” Sebastian shouts, pounding on the opposite doors facing each other at the end of the hall. “We overslept!”
The door to his left suddenly flew open. A wide eyed boy with a nest of brown hair rushed our and nearly collided with him.
“What time is it?!” Dorin called to his roommate as he ran to the bathroom before Seb could reach it.
Seb, unable to get to the toilet before Dorin, went back to pounding on Johan’s door instead.
“Johan! You still alive in there?” he called. There was no answer. Seb checked the door, finding it locked. “Unlock.” he whispers to the door knob.
A cli
One Way Talk... Have you ever wished you had a dragon of your own? If you did, what element would you like him to have? :D
Johan and the rest looked closer at the man in black. His long, wavy black hair was in a sleek ponytail that trailed to his thighs, while his black skin was as dark as the tunic he was wearing.“Ombra!” Dorin gasped in recognition.The two walked towards them, Ombra leading the way.“I have come for the young dragon!” he repeated. “You, Dragon Blood,” he addressed Johan, “where have you hidden him?!”Johan frowned at him. “Who the hell are you?” he answered back.Ombra stopped at his tracks. His yellow eyes glared menacingly at the fire mage. The rest of the faculty murmured in front of them.“Lord Ombra.” Damien went between him and the students. “Please settle down. You should at least introduce yourself to these people.”Ombra shifted his gaze to the professors on the dias and snorted. “If I should...” he mumbled.“Fellow ac
“I was told by a colleague that you were trained in guerrilla warfare.” the dean addressed Dorin.“Yes, sir.” replied Dorin. They were currently riding a military truck with an open top, on their way to the military division.“How about you?” he faced Johan. “Have you been trained to fight before?”“Nope.” Johan replied, then suddenly remembered his manners, “No, sir.”“How about street fights or brawls? Have you ever been through fights before.”“Well, yeah of course...” Johan mumbled, he was never good with dealing with men in uniform. “It’s quite common in the mines.”“For now we will be having a kind of tournament for the new recruits.” said the dean, “You will be divided into groups of 5 and will participate in an emblem smashing event. The purpose of this drill is for us to gauge your combat skills, and al
The tournament was held in the Military department, in a woody area with a hilly terrain. Dean Alcione led Dorin and the rest into a log cabin with a porch in front where several other military men were seated in deck chairs. There were already hundreds of students arranged in platoons in front of the cabin, most of whom where dressed in military garb.One of the seated men was Maj. Gen. Marcus Muller. He stood up in attention as soon as the group approached the cabin and smiled proudly at Dorin. A tall man with short platinum blond hair and a lot of medals on his chest approached them. “Welcome to the Military Division, Dean Alcione, thank you for this joint lesson and congratulations to the students that passed the Special Class Sphere.” he said with a tight serious face.“Thank you for having us, Gen. Benette.” Dean Alcione answered back. “Let me introduce to you, from the Magic Division, Dorin Silvius and Johan Ignacius from the Magic
“Oh, you’re a master class?” Mar asked Sgt. Matthew Owen with interest.“What’s that?” asked Johan.“That means he had finished all the classes under elemental weapons,” Lilith explained. “2nd Lt. Gunnar, likewise, is a Sword Master, Rapier Class.”“Great! Let’s go!” said Dorin who was beginning to loose patience.“Wait, aren’t you going to bring any weapons?!” Sgt. Matthew Owen asked him.“I got my sword.” answered Mar, touching the rapier on her left hip.“I’ve got my rifle.” said Lilith, tapping the bag on her shoulder.“I’ve got my fi-“ Johan tried to show off his fire but it died away. “I’ve got my...” it was again extinguished. “Dorin, stop stealing my wind.” Johan shouted at the wind mage“Don’t forget your seal, okay?” Dorin mumble
“Four at three o’clock!” shouted Lilith as she ducks low and aims her pistol to the right. “Got it!” Mar answered back. She raised her rapier straight in front of her and flashes forward, flicking her wrist as she did. The tip of her sword left a trail of burning light in the air and sent a spiral wave of fire towards their approaching enemies. As she moved forward for close combat, Lilith takes care of the others approaching them, never missing a target. [Grayson 60 points, Gunnar 80 points] “Did you see where the rest of our team have gone?” Mar asked her companion. “I think we left them by the pine forest...” Lilith replied. “Should we go back?” “No need. They are more capable of taking care of themselves.” said Mar, “Let’s just meet up later, what matters most is to attain as much points as possible.” Meanwhile, Dorin and Johan were no longer in the pine forest. They are currently making their way tow
Pieces of burned roots and vines scattered around the area as Dorin emerged from the burning pod. “Hey, you okay?” Johan asked him. “Fine.” he replied. “Need a bit of help, though.” He started burrowing the ground where he emerged from, using shovels made of air. “Something you left underneath?” Johan asked. “A woman,” he simply replied. “Let me do it...” Johan closed his eyes in concentration. The ground around them slowly began to rise and move out ward, soon, the body of an unconscious girl was unearthed from the hole. She may be dirty from the dust and grime, but still her beauty shone through. [Dennison out] said a mechanical voice around them. [Silvius out] it added. “Ehh?!?!” the two boys looked at Dorin’s token and was surprised to see it broken. “Did she do that?” Johan asked. “I guess so...” Dorin scratched his head. “I told you women are scary.” “So, how many points ar
Chapter 82 – Tournament Results “The points have been tallied.” said Gen. Benette as the students stood in attention in front of him. The able ones, at least, while more than half of the participants were sent to the infirmary to be treated.” Here are the two remaining squads and their points.” “Two? Did he say only two squads remained?” whispered Xander. “That means that only our group were left standing!” Dorin said with a big grin on his face. “Well, surely, we’re the winners, with two members left alive!” said Johan. “Don’t be so sure,” said Mar. “The points still need to be tallied in the end.” As I have said,” Gen. Benette continued, “A token is equivalent to 10 points. The last squad standing will be given 100 points each able member, plus 10 points per individual for every token they break. Keep in mind, though, that a dead member will be equivalent to a negative 30 points for each remaining members. Dying is less 50 points from any token points you gain, and a member ga
Chapter 83 – Feast When a prince asks for a feast, then it is a feast he will get. This is what Dorin and Johan found out as Mordecai led their group to several black vehicles with small flags on their side mirrors displaying the Alcione Crest. “Where are we going?” Johan asked as they entered the long car. “Woah, is that a store?” he pointed at the interior where a bucket of wine stood waiting to be served on top of a small compartment stocked with food. “Would you care for some refreshments, sir?” asked a lovely woman dressed in a tight red dress. “Is there something to eat?” asked Dorin when Johan lost his tongue. “Of course, sir, there are finger foods available on the counter.” said the woman as she passed a silver tray. “Woah, I’ve never been in a royal limo before...” said Mar as she sat beside Dorin, followed by Matt and Prince Xander. “I’m afraid though, that the rest of our companions would have to follow us on the SUV’s,” said the prince, but the group was already b
