Aryan's point of view...As the dust settled after my intense solo battle with that formidable monster, my heart pounded in my chest, a mixture of adrenaline and accomplishment. I can feel the weight of my weapon in my hand, evidence of the struggle I have just endured. Slowly, I turn around to face the trouble waiting for me, my teammates, and the individuals who have consistently belittled and underestimated me. With every step I take, a surge of confidence courses through my veins, empowering me to confront their dismissive attitudes head-on. The glimmer of determination in my eyes matched the fiery spirit within me. It's as if the battle has transformed me into a warrior reborn, shedding the insecurities that once held me back.As my gaze met the astonished expressions of my teammates, a moment of silence enveloped us. Their eyes widen, their jaws slacken, and the disbelief etched across their faces is unmistakable. The magnitude of my victory, achieved through sheer determinati

Aryan's point of view...I was the first one to face its wrath, it had been blowing out huge fire blazes, timely changing the direction I tried dodging them every time but it did brush me several times. It was more than what we anticipated, I yelled a command based on what I know about these monsters who use fire as their weapon but literally I forgot that they take me as a fool, good for nothing, why would they listen to me? Even after my warnings, they keep on attacking this monster with their fire-based and thunder-based powers increasing the monster's strength, it grew more and more fierce. I thought my instructions had gone in vain and now that we can't kill it, this is my end but there is hope where there is a will.Though it was late, it wasn't overlooked.I saw someone start with a small stream of water that flushed its burning mouth away, off guard. I was sure it might be someone from the other schools, who doesn't know me so I turned around to see who that helper was, to

As the discussions continued, tension filled the air. The candidates and their teachers gathered around the scoreboard, waiting for the individual scores to be revealed. I silently slipped at one of the corners guessing how my future will be.My heart pounded in my chest, knowing that my secret was on the verge of being exposed. I braced myself for the storm that was about to come. I still can't help but revile that teacher who comes up with this rubbish idea.The master in charge of the scores, my second uncle cleared his throat, gaining everyone's attention. With a solemn expression, he began to announce the results, his every word causing me a threat which make me clench my fist in nervousness, he continued one by one, starting with the lowest-ranking candidates. I was so glad that the lowest rankers, and the last ten rankers all belong to other schools. We did a good job...!But that happiness was not giving me the solace that I was longing for.The announcement continued.Almo

Aryan's point of view..."Aryan" My father's voice echoed through the hall, and a hush fell over the crowd. I am sure all eyes were fixed upon me, awaiting my response. The weight of the moment pressed upon me, and I took a moment to steady myself before raising my head and flung open my eyes to meet their gazes."No," I repeated myself confidently, my voice filled with newfound courage. "I did not take the crystal's power."Though it merged into me unexpectedly, I didn't do anything on purpose. That can't be called my fault, I didn't mean it.If I am not wrong, this flame connects our mind and soul to react, and my soul and heart are all clear with any kind of greed.The holy fire before me started flickering, its flames dancing in response to my words. The crowd gasped, witnessing the undeniable reaction of the legendary fire. It was as if the flames themselves were validating my truthfulness.Mr. David, the main accuser, seemed taken aback by the response. His face contorted wit

Aryan's point of view..."Everyone can get back to your homes, the competition will be held on time tomorrow" my father made an announcement moving back to the formation. My second uncle added the remaining announcement."The last three schools are eliminated from the competition tomorrow, we gratefully lend a friendly hand to all of you, and hope we will fight against the evil alongside you in the coming future" Whispers of awe and amazement filled the air as they exchanged glances, searching for assurance in each other's eyes. The teachers, renowned for their wisdom and discernment, acknowledged the significance of working together to achieve success, recognizing that the path ahead needs collaboration with all the schools because peace could only be achieved with dedication, perseverance, and an indomitable spirit.Amidst the murmurs and exchanged glances, a senior teacher from them stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of wonder and pride. His voice carried the weigh
