"Who was with me then???? I'll gonna check the school pantry if they got any delicious afternoon combo available in the menu."Niccoli invited to which his other friends reacted eagerly with enthusiasm"Count me in. I think I'm craving for some Mellow Cola. Since I am feeling quite down, lately"Jace said and Allan seconded him right away."Oh yeah... I'd love that too!"Allan already had a taste of so many beverages out there, but so far, nothing tasted any better for him aside from Mellow Cola.As such, when he heard Jace mentioned his favorite drink, he could not help but felt excited.Juts the mentioned of its name was already enough for him to salivate.Mellow Cola, so as by its name was a type of carbonated drink like Cola made but it was made from the tears of a Salamander Spinx.A special kind of beast that was specifically reared for one specific purpose and that was food production.Mellow Cola has unique carbonation that felt like a firecracker inside one's mouth when one
The art of Seductress which Professor De Belen practiced to the highest level was actually one of the prided techniques amongst the secret arts that were being taught in the all-female sect, Mystic Muses.Professor De Belen had proven her worth when she managed to master the Art of Sedecutress at such a young age.Allowing her to catch the attention of Madam Xing.It was also for that same reason that Professor De Belen was chosen afterward to do the undercover and investigate the Iridos's highest and esteemed Headmaster. No other than Professor Sonny himself Because apparently, they had been tipped off that Professor Sonny used to have a clandestine past and a secret affair with one of the members of his teaching faculty beforeMadam Xing highly believed that the one whom Professor Sonny had an affair with in the past was actually their long lost young mistress, Delicia.She just needed proof for that so she roped her student, Ella to join her quest of uncovering the Headmaster's se
"WHO ARE YOU?????!!"The young man shouted with all his might.He badly wanted to pounce at the man who tortured him and erased that smug look on his face but he was too weak to do that.His hands were itching to wrap it around the other party's neck so he could wring the life out of him but the old man was not a fool enough to get anywhere near him when he was still strong.It was only when he was already reduced at such sorry state did the other party had the guts to come close to him.But before that, the old man used to torture him in everything imaginable, without even laying a finger on him.The other party was capable of giving him the greatest kind of torture available with just a single flick of his wand.That was when did he realize that the old man was actually a practitioner of magic. A wicked warlock to be precise.So far that was the only thing that he knew so far about the wicked old man.Professor Sonny, on the other hand, remained calmed and collected just like he usu
"Do you really think that your silly little trick could actually ruin my plan??? Do you honestly believe that someone can rescue you from me??? Don't waste your strength anymore save it cause you might need more of that to survive long. No matter how loud your noise was, no one could hear you. And if by some stroke of luck, that someone did hear you, they still would not help you. First is because I am the Headmaster and no one would believe your word against mine. So stop dreaming about running away nor escaping because that would never happen. "Professor Sonny said before he took out a small dagger on his side pocket.Then without any hint of hesitation, he brandished the sharp dagger right in front of the other party's face before he made a small cut but deep cut on the young man's skin.Blood dripped out from that wound that Professor Sonny created and he masterfully caught all those droplets of blood, not letting even a small droplet of it to go to waste.Upon closer look, the y
Meanwhile, on one of the closed rooms inside the Everything Emporium, Professor De Belen was confiding to Madam Xing everything that she had learned so far about Professor Sonny's recent activities.Including his possession of the ancient chalice that most likely has a trapped lady inside it. Whom they highly suspected to be the long lost young mistress of the Mystic MusesBut aside from Madam Xing, there was also another familiar figure that was present in the room apart from Professor De Belen.In fact, the other party was just sitting across Professor De Belen's table.Likewise, Professor De Belen's nonchalant face and lack of any reactions despite the other party's presence only went to say that they knew each other beforehand.It was more likely that the three of them were actually on cahoots with one another and right now, they were all taking serious business."So you mean to say, that by some stroke of luck, you learned from your student warlocks that Professor Sonny actually
However, there had been a recent change to the headmaster's daily routine. He rarely went outside the school premises lately. That was why Diether decided to come back and meet with his other teammates to check on their progress,That was when he met with his junior, Steve, and realized that his junior was acquainted with Audrey all along. Diether was not able to get a chance to meet Audrey back then because he was summoned by Professor De Belen so he had no choice but to leave in a hurry. Only to find out that the reason that Professor De Belen summoned him was to tell him about something that she learned after her investigation.She found out that there was a high chance that one of Delicia's offspring was actually studying at Iridos. Little did she know that it was actually the doing of Diether on the first place.One of the reasons why the Blazing Inferno Sect also decided to join hands with Mystic Muses Sect was because they found out that the apprentice put a curse to one of Del
"Rest assured that the daughter was just doing fine on her own, right now. She was somewhere safe. We should worry about the son instead because he was the one the has been captured. And most likely to had become one of the many specimens in Professor Sonny's mad experiment"If they only had a way in mind to finally put an end to Professor Sonny's madness, then they might have gone through it already.But unfortunately, they did not have one yet. Nor they have enough proof to expose Professor Sonny's mischiefsAnd now that they learned that he had his vile hands over the ancient chalice as well as Delicia's son, their alliance got lesser time to plan.They were tighter in time than ever.They were running against time to prove that Professor Sonny was not as good as others thought him to be."How could you be so sure that Yun Yan's daughter was somewhere safe??? She was the first one that went missing, remember?? Who knows? Maybe Professor Sonny was also the one behind her disappeara
Almost a month after their encounter with the Jar of Misfortune had already passed since then.Audrey and the others also had almost forgotten everything about it.After all, they had already decided not to get themselves involved with anything about it afterward.So for the past few weeks of their life, they had been on a total lay low.They spend their time attending their own personal matters that they might have neglected lately since they had been very busy doing school missions one after another.Now that they all finally had the time of their life, they made perfect use of it by dealing with their existing concerns at hand.Niccoli spent more time with his pet cat, Monami.At the same time, he also tried to explore more of this mental telepathy thing with his pet.But, in reality, he just basically became a complete chaperone in Nero and Monami's date at the Enchanted Garden because he used to tag along with them.That somehow, made him reflect upon himself and made him thought
[Distract them for me.]“Was it not only right for Steffi to get to use to eye whenever she feels like it?? I mean, she is older than the two of you so naturally, she was supposed to have more authority above both of you, no?.”“Ehhh… She’ll be fine. I’m the youngest so they should let me wear it more.” (Meredith)“The kid is right. The eldest should have the eyeball. She is a genius” (Steffi)Steve, on the other hand, seemed to get what Audrey was trying to do, so he said something that would surely add fuel to the fire.“But what about the middle child? I am sure, Ariel wants to have her turn too.&rdqu
“Now, where are we? Right, cooking.”Steffi changed the topic on purpose, before turning to her sisters.“I need the eye to check if it's ready, who has it?”“It’s around here, somewhere,”Meredith replied as she started to rummage through a pile of disorganized drawers. She felt obliged to respond since she was the last one to use the Magus Eye. Unfortunately, she forgot where she left it.“The last time I saw it, you put it in the utensils compartment, Meredith” Steffi insinuated using a lazy tone so the other party rebutted,“Don’t use that tone with my name.”Ariel on the other hand joined in this time to inform them that the eye was nowhere to be seen.“It’s not there this time.”After a while of contemplation, Meredith’s face lit up as she recalled something.“Aha! Steffi always put it in the dish cabinet:”And just like that, she found where her sister was hiding it.Consequently, the group found it interesting to watch how the three sisters could be talkative without having t
“I agree with Ariel. Why don’t we invite them over? This way, we could continue our chat there whilst they take their much-needed rest.” This time, it was Meredith who spoke and she deliberately told her sisters this. Nonetheless, she has spoken the words loud enough to be heard by others. The students, on the other hand, were beyond ecstatic when they overhear the ongoing conversation. But decided that it would be best not to allow their emotion to show on their faces. At this point, Meredith turned to the group and greeted them with a bow. “Let me apologize on my sister’s behalf. The thing is, it has been a while since we had visitors. As such, we are no longer accustomed to receiving guests.” She insinuated before she slowly approached the bunch of bewildered youngsters; careful not to bump her toe as she felt her way through the darkness. Her blindness was made obvious by her action and it made her appear pitiful to any onlooker. Truth be told, the Grae’s current act of displ
“Seriously, when will they stop obsessing over Cercei?”Tsking in annoyance, Steffi stealthily moved her slender fingers next to the Magnus Eye with the full intention of taking it back from her younger sister’s possession.“These people were getting on my nerves!”She purposely added this to appeal to her sisters’ sentiment so that their minds could focus somewhere else and they would not notice it once she started hogging the magic eye all for herself again. Meanwhile, her plan worked, as it always did. Ariel readily agreed to her and with a voice full of despondency, she said,“That’s how the mage community works. They fear what they could not understand and so they are set on destroying anything that they cannot control.”Ariel finished with an exasperated sigh. Meredith, on the other hand, could not help but clenched her fist as she was reminded of their good friend’s plight. Then with her brows knitted together, she roared,“The gal did not deserve all this hatred.”Meanwhile, t
On the flip side, rewinding the clock a tad, just a few minutes before Audrey’s group discovered that they unknowingly fall under a spell, the Graes were already watching them. “The eye! Who has the eye?” Meredith, the youngest, shouted at the top of her lungs. Steffi, on the other hand, stepped away from the giant cauldron before answering. “Over here. I had it with me.” She purposely put a safe distance between her and her two sisters before taking the eye out from her pocket. Afterward, she put the eyeball inside her empty socket. Meanwhile, Ariel, the middle child among the three sisters complained, “You again? You are always snagging our eyes by yourself.” “I know right? Give us a chance as well.” Meredith seconded. But Steffi only rolled her removable eye and mumbled, “Oh, shut up! Stop whining, it's because I have more use of this than the two of you combined.” Ariel no longer argued. But Meredith was different. “Give me that, it is my turn today.” She insinuated and
“But this was done in consideration of what was the lesser evil. News about how the petrifying monster has been terrorizing the Black Forest had already reached the ears of the masses and as a result, was causing mayhem among the people; both non-magic and magic practitioners alike. If it was not for that, the mage community would not make a move.” “Terrorizing, you say.” The Grae mockingly repeated Niccoli’s word that struck her noggin the most. Then with a contemptuous scoff, she added, “What an interesting choice of words considering that it was you, students, who made the first move against her. If you were to ask me, I think it is more accurate to say that it was the other way around. You all are the ones doing the terrorizing. You brought the melee with you and now that she retaliated, you turned her into a villain?” Everyone fell silent afterward but it was not because they were trying to come up with better arguments to refute the other party’s words. Rather, it was due to
Audrey was on her dormitory bed when all that happened, and she was absolutely oblivious to the problem that was headed her way. Meanwhile, the results of the examination were announced on the third day. The students gathered around the square early in the morning and crammed in front of the announcement board to check their results. They also wanted to find out which class they had been allocated to. Niccoli dragged Audrey into the heavily obstructed crowd and finally came before the Herbalist Division’s announcement board. Niccoli immediately found their names, and as expected, both of them had obtained the highest marks for the test. They were also allocated to the Herbalist Division’s violet class for that autumn enrollment. Niccoli was also excited to see the name ‘Andrew’ written on the top of the list. Everyone envied her marks. “Andrew! You are the first! You are the first!” Niccoli was extremely surprised and held onto Audrey’s shoulder. He was very excited, and it was as i
[Alright, I must admit it’s my fault this time. My bad.] “As you should!” Ultimately, Nero acknowledged the part he played in inciting the agitated hut to action. But he also did not forget to let Audrey know that he did not appreciate her tone. [Needless to say, raising your voice is completely unnecessary. Besides, getting mad at me won’t change anything, will it? You’re kind of embarrassing me, just you know.] The cat tried to reason out but with her and her friends’ lives at stake and almost put in danger, Audrey did not back away easily this time. “Oh yeah? Then swear to me that from now on, you will be mindful of your choice of words. We have to be careful with every word we are saying because it was not every time that we got a chance to take it back.” Meanwhile, Nero’s response came shortly. However, it was so brief. Moreover, it did not sound sincere either. [Okay. I promised] So Audrey prompted the cat to state the matter precisely because she did not want him to circ
“What if the Graes already took notice of us as soon as we entered their perimeter and right now, we are under a spell; making our eyes play a trick on us? What if what we are seeing right now is not real?”“Well, if that is the case, then I guess there is only one way to check it.”Audrey insinuated and without wasting another breath, she said the passphrase."Turn your back to the forest, your front to me."Slowly, it dawned on the others as well what was possibly happening and so without waiting to be told what to do, they recited the same thing too."Turn your back to the forest, your front to me."They whispered into the air one after another and almost immediately, the landscape changed into something else, right before their naked eyes.Everyone watched with an awestruck face as the trees turned into fences. At the same time, just a few feet away from where they were standing, they noticed how an empty lot from moments ago started to morph into what seemed to be an inconspicuou
