After putting the empty trays on the table at the front of the cafeteria, they left, with the other three friends following them at some distance.
As they were walking to her room, Tharn smiled or nodded to every student that stared at him, because the rumours of a strange Familiar ran across the School like wildfire, and they all knew there was a Humanish-looking and intelligent familiar with the worst Mage in the entire School.
When she reached the door to her room, Istar unlocked it with a key she had in her pocket and gulped, watching as Tharn entered and looked around.
Istar nodded and answered. “I can. You want to see?”“Yes, and I want you to memorize it and think about how to Summon him so that he looks exactly like you imagined it.”He got up and accompanied her to the table. Osman got up to let her sit and said, “Perhaps it is better if we leave. We have to wake up early, right? But how early?”After some quick thinking, Tharn answere
After a quick stop in the bathroom, they arrived at the Training Room. No one was there, so Tharn told the nervous Istar to sit on the floor, close her eyes, and focus on her breathing and the warmth of her pendant while they waited for the others.Not even ten minutes had passed, and Muranu opened the room door, with the other two following him, and Synesia locking the door behind her.They approached Tharn, who was staring at Istar in silence, and Osman whispered to him, “What is she doing?”“ With a smile and a slight bow, Tharn opened the door and signalled for Istar to enter the cafeteria. He wondered why she stopped as soon as she crossed the door frame, and he looked over her shoulder.Inside, all eyes were on her. Rihat and her two friends, also known as her shadows, were next to a table in the middle of the cafeteria. On top of it, there was a blue Sphere over a three-legged stand, and the Teacher that gave the practical test the previous morning was next to it, with a slight grin.Tharn whispered as he tapped her shoulder. “Go ahead, let’s earn some coins and show thoseLord Tharn Zon Chapter 11 – Sphere verification
When the other three went to their class, which was on the other side of the main building, Istar kept on walking in the main corridor next to Tharn, with her white rabbit hopping behind her. In front of her class door, she asked, “Tharn, you are going to the Library again?” “Yes, I want to find out a few things. Can you go there to get me so that we can go have lunch? I might get distracted and lose lunch hour.” “Sure. But… What do I say if my classmates ask me…” “Don’t answer anything, easy. Osman was going to see if there would be a Tournament in the afternoon after classes, remember? At least, that was what he said after leaving for his class. It wouldn’t be a good idea if a possible opponent learned how you improved so much.” She touched the pendant that was under her clothes and said, in a low tone, “You were right. This helps a lot. I only lost control of my Magic once yesterday, and before my Magic exploded, the pendant absorbed it. After that, I focused on the warmth of t
Tharn looked up at the puzzled Istar, who was looking over his shoulder at the book he was reading. She then made a slight nod and said, “Oh, I see! Did you read about the Monsters as well?”He pointed to a book at the top of the pile, and Istar opened it and asked, “Did you know there is a Monster that most scholars are not sure if they are Monsters or animals?”She opened the book, flipped a few pages, pointed at one drawing and said, “See? They are called Balloons, and grown-ups are enormous. They have elastic and soft skin, and they
After lunch, Muranu, Synesia, and Osman rushed to the other side of the main building to get to their rooms, and Istar walked next to Tharn in the direction of the Library, with Slapp following them.She remained silent the entire walk, and in front of the Library’s door, she finally spoke. “Tharn… I… I am not sure if I want to go or not… I challenged them for the Tournament, but… I am not sure if I am good enough to go with you and join a Guild. And… my family won’t like it considering how much they spent for me to enter this School.”
When Istar and her group entered Training Room number two, it was packed. It looked like all the students in the School were there.Looking around, she noticed that all the Teachers and even the Principal were next to a wall in a group, and like the students, they were all looking at her.There were on the wall on the left side of the room a few papers on a board, and Muranu signalled the others to follow him.In front of the board, he checked the names of the contestants and
With a frown, the Principal looked at the board and said, “Muranu and whoever wants to Duel him. I don’t care who.”While Muranu walked to one side of the room, a Humanish boy came from a group near a wall. He clenched his fists and walked to the other edge, waiting for the signal to start.The Principal went back to his place while glancing at Tharn, who was still frowning at him, and the student with the bag gave the order to start.Muranu immediately summo
