2024-10-29 19:42:56After both he and the girl collided with each other Rex saw stars for a few seconds before his bearings finally came back to him and then he got up he saw that the girl was still struggling to get up as well and so he held his hand with an apology.
"Sorry, I didn't see you there..."
Immediately his hand was slapped away after you made that comment and she glared at him with eyes burning like freshly lit flames.
"What do you mean you can't see me? Am I some kind of mushroom that is so tiny that it is impossible for you to see me?"
After she made that comment he took a closer look at her physique and you tried not to laugh when how small she was someone would have easily confused her for a child that was crossing 15 or 14 but if she was in the university she was bound to be older than that as there was a certain age restriction for entrance into the magical University.
"I didn't mean it like tha-"
"Rex doesn't mind her, that's just how she is and I could clearly see that she was the one who bumped into you."
Rex could hear Kelvin and his group snickering behind his back and then he placed a hand on Lyra's shoulder then he whispered in her ear.
"Don't worry about it, I'll handle this."
she glanced over at him with worried eyes.
"Are you sure about this? I can take care of her so she doesn't bother you.."
Rex felt the heavy gaze of his bullies on his back probably waiting for his *girlfriend* to defend him again. But he didn't want it to seem as if he was taking advantage of her or that he was hiding behind her for safety.
"Are you ignoring me now?!"The petite female in front of him asked and her face was burning with fury as her fist clenched up."We can settle this with a wizard duel!"
she said as she slammed her hand on the desk and glared at the boy in front of her as if she was not much smaller than he was.
"I don't know if you heard of the professor just now but we need to find someone to join our group..."
Lyra mumbled and when a bulb lit up above Rex's head and then he looked at the small lady, normally we would have just ignored her and focused on his business. Everyone was always trying to step on his toes after all but he thought of a way that this could come in his favour.
"Ok I'll accept your duel on one condition..." he said after crossing his hands with a smirk.
" if you can beat me-"
"When I beat you, you are going to apologize to me by kissing my shoe and apologizing to me in front of the entire class..."
Everyone in the class is already looking at them and Rex knew that if he agreed to this there was no backing down and so he agreed.
"And of course let's see I win, you will have to join my group for the exam..."
Her eyes immediately widened as if they were going to pop right out of their sockets.
"Why would anybody want to be part of your group? Do I look like I want to fail my exam?"
"Well, since you are so confident that you will beat me, you don't have to worry, right?"
he said to her his smirk never leaving his face and then she nodded.
"of course, I know that I'm not going to lose to you."
" So it's a deal alright then."
"Then tomorrow why tomorrow why not right now I need to eat and rest and I have other things to take care of ."
As he was walking away with Lyra following him from behind she was already calling out.
" Alright, you fireball freak but don't you dare think of running away because I'm going to find you!"
he waves his hand at her without looking back.
" Don't worry I'm not going to run away."
That was your last class for the day and they were heading back to their dorms after they got to the male dorm but you could see that there was something that was troubling his group member, Lyra.
"Lyra, is something wrong?"
He didn't respond to his question immediately but was looking at him intensely and then he sighed, brushing his fingers and crossing his hair.
"If we are going to be on the same thing we need to be able to talk to each other
she nodded.
"you're right, my issue is with that short girl that you were talking to before."
Rex felt his cheeks become a little red.
"liar I don't know if I need to point this out but I don't really have time for a relationship so if you are interested in me in that way then..."
"interested in you in th-"
suddenly what is trying to say is his liver is like a lightning bolt and then her face immediately becomes red."I don't mean it like that it's not like I'm jealous or anything but I don't think that that girl will be a good addition to our group."
"And why do you say that?" he asked her curiously.
"I can't tell you right now some guys are ready to give me weird looks... you probably don't want them to bring up any funny rumours about us..."
so the duo decided that they would discuss it later since he was already at the males' dorm, after they departed he tried to remember anything that stood out about the girl that he had encountered in the lecture Hall.
he could not remember anything that really still that she treated him just the way most of the students in his year did as well.
"Well, I guess I'll find out from Lyra, for now, I'll just rest."

As Rex walked into the dorm he could feel that somebody was following him but he pretended not to notice and kept walking towards his room it became more and more of yours and it was hard to avoid. This disturbing stalker kept following him until he finally stopped and turned.He was not surprised to see that it was his bully Kelvin that had been following him all along, and he sighed."Look whatever you have to say, can it wait till tomorrow? I need to recharge my energy right now..."As always the bully had an entourage following him, Rex could not remember a single time that he had ever seen the boy in front of him alone even when he was in the washroom he would still have somebody following him like a lost familiar."You seem to be getting cocker and cocker every day, anyways I don't have much to say. I just want to wish you good luck on your duel tomorrow."The bully said with a snicker as he looked at his friends."But I guess that you don't need any luck when you have your girl

The next morning Rex woke up with the duel in his mind he knew that there was no way he could lose, for one that will make him a bigger joke in the school when he was still trying to get up his image, and also he would have to apologize to that rude small girl that had a tongue that was a sharp as a dagger. But he was still curious why Lyra didn't want that girl in their team well there was only one way to find out and that was to ask her again today, but as he was arranging his bed he hoped that it was something that could be overlooked because he was still struggling to even find a fourth member of their group and the deadline was getting closer by the day. When he was done arranging his bed he looked at his roommates and the other boy seemed as if he was going to jump out of his skin. "What do you want now?" Even though his tone was still not friendly Rex could sense that his voice was trembling as he spoke to him. "Well I realize that you changed the lock yesterday, someth

None of the students was actually focused on the class that was going on even though they were supposed to be because their exams were coming up and they were very close. Instead, all of them were placing their bets on who would lose and who would win the duel that was going to happen after classes. Of course, as it was going to be held in the university training hall, they would first have to gain the permission of a professor who would also observe the duel so that it would not go too far and there would be no cheating or serious injuries out of it. The professor that they got permission from was called Prof Gregor who taught magical history and culture, he was usually easygoing but could draw the line when his students were coming unruly.Before the duel began Rex had asked Lyra if she had any information about his opponent and then she told him, as they were walking along the hallways towards the training hall after classes that the girl was mostly a wind enchantment user even

The time limit for the deal was about to end and if that happened without either of them taking the other down then it would be a draw. Both of them were waiting right now and especially Miranda was looking very exhausted from the fight that had already gone past an hour she was throwing everything she had in each attack and that was why she was getting more fatigued. Initially, he was waiting for her to drain herself so that he could easily subdue her and then he would easily win the fight however she was not allowing him to get close to her and she was becoming more aggressive by the moment as adrenaline was pumping through her body. "don't you think you are taking this a little too far?'' he asked her, concerning his voice and then she looked like him and scoffed. "You must seriously be joking right now, just admit it you know I'm going to win that's why you want me to give up." As she was saying this habit was ragged, and he could see that she was only moments away from col

Rex had resigned to having to take her down with force when he noticed that there was something weird with how she was absorbing and dispelling energy to make her enchantments, her fingers began to twitch and tremble which was a sign that she was obviously overworking herself. After he noticed that; he decided to give up the duel, she wasn't going to be much use in his team if she hurt herself and ended up staying on bed rest throughout the exam. That would defeat the point of having her on the team. "Miranda, why don't we just stop this, you win, okay?" He said waving his hand at her and the response that he got immediately was her sending another blade-sharp wind enchantment his way."you must be a really stupid fireball freak, you think that you can run away from this I'm going to pound you to the ground and then you will respect me! everyone in this university will give respect me!" Rex raised his eyebrows."That's not why I'm raising a white flag," he said as he adjusted his

Rex was feeling dizzy after that hectic fight and even with that severe injury that he had gotten on his head he was still holding his ground as it kept the enchantments on so that the girl called Miranda would love to go on a rampage she was visibly very upset that she had lost the duel and was not taking it well. It was even worse when she heard the words coming from around the outer area of the training Hall behind the pillars and her heart sank. They were all looking at her like a loser. Suddenly Rex spoke to her. " It's over now, I've won ..." he said while dragging the words out because he was barely even able to stand at this point. "No I can't lose to you I can't become a laughing stock this match has to go on!" he tightens the hold of his water chain making sure not to hurt her as much as he could but she even struggled all the more "I can't do this, I can't do this, I'll never be able to show my face anywhere again in this university!" And that she was saying this t

When Miranda walks into the role she could not even look at Rex she was not having any visible bandages on her but she had to stay in the healer's building because she was still physically fatigued from the fights that she had with Rex. "Miranda I'm happy that you came to see me."Rex to her as soon as she walked in and both she and Lyra looked at him with surprise. she stabbed the trembling finger at her chest and said to him." Are you happy to see me after all I did?" Lyra immediately echoed her words back."yes! how can you be happy to see her after all she did?"Rex scratched the back of his neck awkwardly not knowing that this would cause such a fuss."Well, why wouldn't I be happy to see my team members?"At this point, Miranda's eyes were so wide." Do you still want me to be a part of your team? even after all that's happened?"" yes I still want us to be a part of the team"" even after all that?""yes, Lyra makes." Rex said to his first teammates in a patient tone." she

Miranda seems to be startled that he even talks to her at all but is relieved as well as she smiles at the uneasiness in the room becoming lighter when she begins to speak. "He is actually somebody from our year" immediately she said that she was not herself in the head." Of course, someone from our year, how would I even suggest him from the group exams?" she kept smacking herself in the head until Rex held her hand and she was no longer able to do it and then he told her in a very serious tone. " you don't have to hit yourself like that everybody makes mistakes after all," She looked back at him."I really wish that my parents thought the same way..." after she said this he parted the wooden chair that Sarah had left wearing a comforting look on his face I feel like there's something that you have to get out of your system just go ahead she looks back at him with surprise dancing in her eyes and then back at the chair and see if it was cursed.

Then she began to sob and then Lyra placed a comforting hand on her shoulder even though she felt like crying herself Rex could not be here to see his friends like this all know that one of them was gone so he turned to the Head wizard and asked if there was any way he could give them Crystal's location.

"Pathetic, and you call yourself a noble!" This was something that Miranda had gotten used to being told every single day of her life from the moment that she had been born that she was a failure that would one day disgrace the family and she was pathetic. All these things that they her she swallowed like a sponge and I've solved it into her life so before she would even make an attempt at learning anything the first thing that would come to her mind was; failure. She tried to hide it by talking loud and acting as if it didn't affect her even though she would immediately talk about how she was sure somebody was looking down on her. On the night before her departure to the magical Jerard University, her father called her into his study and then he briefed her on a lot of things one particularly stood out."I'm taking you to a Uni, where even someone as pathetic and useless as yourself cannot fail…high scores are practically dished out to nobles, the only thing that you have to do

"Thank you," she said, not even slightly higher than a whisper before she carefully shipped it as if she was testing it for poison, then she placed it on her lap and became as still as a statue once again before she had been given the cup of water.She has been acting like this ever since she heard the news."It doesn't make any sense …" she finally managed to say after some more seconds of silence as if she had been thinking deeply about what next to say and that was all she could come up with as she robbed t

"Have you eaten today?" Those were the first words that she ever said to him and the first time they had ever been that close he used to see her before in places around campus surrounded by a couple of friends. Sometimes they were more, sometimes to be less but each time she spent on them like there was no tomorrow.The questions that came from her lips were so peculiar, that he had to lift his head and look her up in the eyes when normally he would have just kept his eyes planted on his book without even sparing high class since he was just that unenthusiastic about people."I'm sorry what?"She placed her hands on her hips and repeated her question as if there was nothing out of place for one stranger to ask another if they had eaten."I don't see how that's your business"Crystal never got the chance to complete that blunt sentence before his stomach growled loudly in the lecture Hall but luckily for him most

Crystal paused for a few breaths as he was climbing up the stairs that would later lead to the hallway that would further lead into the head wizard's office. "What kind of trouble has that girl gotten into now?" He mumbled under his breath as he kept walking faster and faster even though his body was really against it he remembered the words of the healer wizard that had treated him. "You have a very weak constituency …" the healer wizard, who was even blunter than he deadpanned, the healer wizards were known as the most unsympathetic type which was kind of ironic because their job was mostly treating others that had been injured. But then again it fits perfectly for the job because they are passiveness to many emotions such as empathy made it easier for them to function in their job without constantly breaking down or worrying much, however, this was still an ethic of their work that made people very reluctant to go towards them because of how emotionless they were.

Two days flew by in the blink of an eye the only thing that made me feel drugged was the fact that Miranda and Crystal had not settled their issues rather they are the most even sat down to table the fact that they had issues at all and so the chances of them even having to talk about not settling the issues had not even come yet. In the meantime, crystal seem to be isolating himself from the entire group altogether and then there was Miranda trying to love-bomb them from the way things appeared, she would buy them all sorts of lavish gifts as if she was trying to burn out her entire allowance before the session would even end and most of the time they had to return the gifts or at least try to. Her response to this was to squint her eyes cross her hands and then glare at them as if she was waiting for the fire to burst out of those eyes."Where are both of you being so fussy it's just a couple of gifts, the polite thing would be to accept them and just say thank you."

A clash between Miranda and Crystal was not something that the group had ever really expected to happen, even though Crystal was naturally blunt to everyone including Miranda, there was a special kind of patience that you have for all the members of his team, especially Miranda. He will take care of her as if she was her arranged guardian or something like that, no matter how much she seem to have done something that would have normally irked him, but it appeared as if he had been holding back a lot of feelings for a long time and does bottle of feelings are finally exploded in the outburst that happened in the healer's building.Miranda on her own part was expecting him to have an abyss full of patience for her and when he didn't meet that expectation she also flared up as well.Honestly, they both said hurtful things to each other but the only issue now is who was going to put his or her pride away first to apologize and save the friendship.
