"Also, your boss at Traxx told me that you no longer work there and that you quit your job; is that true?" She raised an eyebrow. "Yes, it’s true, mom; I no longer work there," he answered. "Then how are you going to be earning money to be able to pay for your college and stuff? My pay is not going to be enough to cover the household expenses and also pay for your college," she complained. "Mom, I have all that sorted out; you don’t have to worry about all that again," he replied calmly. "Firstly, tell me where you went for almost four days now. I didn’t involve the police in the search this time because I figured it could have been the same disappearance as the last time," she said softly. Hudson started to realize that he would have to come clean and tell her the truth, because he is not going to be able to come up with a lie that she is going to believe, but first he wanted validation on whether he should tell her the entire truth of what has been happening to him ever since he

have imagined that you were responsible for the hot water splashing on them as they fell unconscious," Hank analyzed.He turned his chair around and looked at detectives Frank and John. "What do y’all think about the whole thing? Apparently, those victims were bullies that were bullying this innocent guy," Hank said calmly."Yeah, and I see why they couldn’t admit that they bullied him; it’s probably because they didn’t want to get into trouble, but those guys could have probably joined together to forge that magic story just to put Hudson here in trouble. So, I think Hudson’s story adds up, but on the matter of who splashed the hot water, we will have to do some investigation around the street to see if we can find anything or the person that did it," detective frank narrated."I support Frank’s logic," detective John said softly."Alright then," Hank said, turning around and staring at Hudson."We believe everything you told us, and we are glad you could tell us the truth about the

I guess the experience made Max reflect on all his actions and made him calmer. It is a good look on him, though; always playing the tough guy and bullying people serves him right, Hudson thought.*********The following morning, Hudson was having dinner with his mom and his little sister at the kitchen table when the sound of the front doorbell rang."Are you expecting anybody?" Hudson asked, staring at his mom across the table."No, but go and see who it is," she responded. Hudson stood up and went to the front door. As he got there, he opened the door and saw that it was the Japanese man he saw on the website who sold a real sword to him."Oh! It’s you; I didn’t think you were going to come here this early," Hudson said with a bright smile."Yeah, I also never planned to come this early, but I have some other places I have to be at; that’s why I had to be here," the man replied with a smirk. He was holding the sword in his hand; it was covered with a milk towel. The man handed over

"You are welcome; make sure that you come back to learn some magic after you have successfully passed your mission," Ajax replied with a smile."I will," Hudson said as he went out of the office.***Hudson was walking down the street, heading towards the motel where he had stayed a couple of days before on his last time in the magical world. It looks like Ajax was a warrior back in the day; Well, no wonder he is a level 80 magician; he must have gone through a lot before he got to where he is today. I hope I see this Antou guy, he thought.Hudson arrived in front of the store that was about two blocks away from the motel. A large wooden signboard was about the store that had "Antou and Magic" on it. Hudson went into the store. He noticed that the store was very large. He saw multiple items hanging on the wall, most of which he hadn’t seen before, but he knew that they were all magical instruments.He ambled over to the front counter and he looked around the store with his mouth wide

Everyone responded to her greeting, including Hudson. She looked like she was in her late 40s. "We have two new level 1 magic spells we are going to be learning today," she said in a rumbling tone as her voice echoed throughout the room. She stood up from behind the desk and started hovering around the class. She had a magic sandal that hovers her around. She noticed Hudson sitting next to Kush."Hey, I have not seen you in my class before; are you a level 1 magician? And also, what’s your name, and did you just enroll in the academy?" She bombarded Hudson with questions."My name….. Before Hudson could finish his sentence, she interrupted. "Stand up and answer my questions! You don’t sit down when I am talking to you!" She yelled.Her voice sent shivers down Hudson’s body as he swiftly stood up. "My name is Hudson Atonal; yes, I am a level 1 magician, and I just enrolled a couple of days ago," Hudson answered in a shaky voice."Oh, Hudson Atonal, I saw your name in the level 1 regist
