Rex yelled as the energy began to build up at his fingertips until finally it formed into a ball of fire and he was breathing heavily with satisfaction then his eyes darted over to the target in front of him three straw men that had been placed about 100 m away from him in the training hall of Jared magical university.
Keeping his breathing focused he built up the ball of fire that was hovering above the palms of his hand until it was the size of a boulder and then he shot it at the straw men watching with satisfaction as they burst into flames.
” Bullseye!" He yelled as he threw his fist in the air, his scream attracted the attention of a female student that was just coming in, and the blonde looked at him with confusion then her eyes darted over to the straw men that were still burning up and she had to cover her mouth before she started bursting into laughter.
Unable to hold herself she walks towards him and when she was close enough that he could hear her footsteps and he turned back to face her his green eyes crawling all over her and scanning her with a quizzical look on his face.
“Are you the one that is responsible for that?”
She asked as she pointed towards the straw men that were almost nothing but ashes at that point, he smiled immediately raking his fingers through his hair.
“Yep, impressive right?”
At this point, she would no longer hold herself back and then crumbled to the floor with laughter.
“You have got to be kidding me!" she said, wrapping her hands across her stomach as her entire body was choked with laughter and her blonde hair danced on her face.
” What's so funny?“he asked her, getting irritated with her attitude towards him.
” oh it's nothing actually I'm quite impressed...“
She said that she was getting up dusting her dress and straightening up her features that have been ruffled up because of her frantic laughing.
” Honestly I'm impressed if I was someone like you I wouldn't even leave my dorm to talk less of coming to the training hall to publicly embarrass myself...“
He clenched his fist in annoyance.
” Can you just leave me alone? I was practising my fireball magic just fine before you came along.“
” Why don't you practice something else you are always practising that fireball magic of yours don't you get bored of it at all?"
She asked with a mocking tone as she crossed her hands, this made work's blood boil even more because he knew that she was aware that the only magic he could do was that fireball.
“I mean honestly everyone in this school has about four to five magic skills after a year, you are the only weirdo that has just one...”
She held up her forefinger practically shoving it in his face in case he missed her emphasis on the “one”
Rex just turned away not wanting to react to her provocations.
“Okay, can you leave me so I can do my one magic skill?”
She shook her head so hard that her blonde hair whipped around her face “I can't leave I'm waiting for my friends so we can train together”
She scoffed at him “If there is anyone that should leave- it's you right now, at least I'm saving you the chance from embarrassing yourself in front of more people.”
Rex's fingers sunk into his palm until they balled up into shaking fists, Everyone in the entire school looked down on him because he only had one magic school but he never stopped tenaciously training in improving his skills.
I turned away from the girl pretending that she was no longer even in a training hall as he went to the corner where he had kept a bundle of straw men to place them in the former position where their predecessors had been and now had turned into ashes.
As he was doing this some other students came into the training hall and noticed he was well, and even though they were talking behind his back they make sure that they were loud enough that he would be able to hear them.
“Wait isn't that the loser? He still hasn't dropped out yet?"
His fingers sunk into the straw man's neck.
” I told him to leave that you guys were coming over and we all wanted to train but then he didn't I guess he's not only useless but he's also dumb too“
He easily recognised the voice of the blonde that had been bothering him for over five minutes.
Those people were probably her frien- -
He had not completed the thought in his mind before suddenly a tall guy grabbed the straw man from him and threw it away as if it was just a feather.
” hey that was mine!"
He growled at the tall boy who just laughed along with his friends.
“Oh no everybody it looks as if we have made him mad we better be careful he might use his fireball on us!"
And as he was speaking the blonde girl smirked “hey why don't we get rid of all of his toys so he can finally leave us alone to train?”
The group left and then rushed over to the corner to start stomping on the strong men with their feet and laughing as they did Rex was trembling not with fear but fury.
“I just wanted to train...”
He felt his fingers as the way filled up with that burning sensation as a fireball built up in them. He was so angry that he wasn't even aware of how much of his power was slipping out.
“Stop!' he yelled at them but they just went on laughing to their fill that was until they felt that the training Hall was getting extremely hot and when they turned back there was a huge fireball heading straight for them.

“I would like an order of black coffee with a muffin by the side if you don't mind.” “Coming right up!" Rex had not always been a student at the prestigious Jared magic University, he had been a regular guy that only ever came out of his apartment to visit his favourite coffee shop and then crawl right back in like a shell. Until something happened that totally changed his life. It had been a totally uneventful Thursday afternoon and he had come to the shop at a time that you will show had fewer customers so he would not have to bother with interacting with too many people or standing in a long line and just get his coffee and be going his way. But then it seems like life had other things in store for him. After he made his order instead of the strong scent of black coffee reaching him it was the toxic smell of smoke that got to him first. The coffee shop was on fire. He didn't know how the fire started. All he knew was that it immediately engulfed the entire shop without any m

The days grew into weeks which eventually developed into months and then before Rex knew it he had already spent time here in Jared magical University. However, things were no longer the same as they were before when he first started university after learning the fire enchantment on his first try he became the talk of the school his fellow students stepped on each other to be friends with him and the professors were incredibly fond of him as well. And he advanced faster than all of his other mates combined so much that it amazed everybody in the university. But then those good days did not last long and initially, even Rex did not notice it himself it was until a professor called him and told him to stay after class that he had an important discussion with him. “Guys, the professor says if you want to talk to me I'll catch up with you all later.” He said to his friends who were already heading out one of them managed to turn back and say.“Don't worry about it, take your time, it m

“Hey isn't that fireball freak?!"Rex clenched the books in his hand as the two students in his year were coming from behind and they were openly making fun of him pretending to be whispering even though he could hear them very well.” That's definitely him I bet he's going to practice that stupid fireball enchantment of his... Doesn't he ever get tired?"They both chuckled but when they noticed that he wasn't giving them any attention they decided to bother him even more walking up to your side.“Hey, buddy classes already ended for the day where are you rushing off to?"One of them, a tall male with red hair, said placing his elbow on Rex's shoulder, Rex immediately stopped.”I'm going to train...so do you mind taking your hand off my shoulder?"He then gave him an icy look.“You know...while it's still not roasted yet,”The redhead immediately took his hand and then signalled his friend.“Yeah, we have the stuff to do anyway later...”As they had gotten a little farther from him th

After that day we started to hear that voice everywhere, even in his dreams he could hear it echo in over and over again.“Fireball max level reached.” it sounded like neither a man nor a woman and it was on constant repeat and it got even worse when he was training so Rex decided to take a break from training for a while and focus on reading on enchantments but the voice did not really him a break, he was barely able to sleep anymore and he walked into classes looking like death warmed up and almost all of the time lately.Though the professors barely scolded him, this was because they did not even see him as a student anymore but rather just a spare part that came to warm up the seat. They even liked it or at least preferred it when it came late or missed classes altogether.Then it started one sunny afternoon, after coming in late as usual Rex looked around for an empty seat of course nobody wanted him to sit next to them and so we have to go all the way to the back where there was

"So you are one of the reasons that I have been stuck in a rut all this time?" Rex said angrily to the voice clenching his fist as he works to a more secluded area of the library so nobody was with him while he was having a conversation seemingly with himself. "Do you know how many enchantments that people in my own year have probably learnt huh ?" He asked them with his stern voice as he raked his fingers through his hair. "About 4 to 5 ..." The voice said almost not currently and the young man rested his back against the wall taking a deep breath as he held up all of his fingers. "In an entire year, I've only learnt one enchantment ..." "That's absolutely true." "I became the laughingstock of my entire school." "That is also correct." Rex felt like he was going to explode in the next second but he took some deep breaths trying to calm himself down. "So this is just how your system works ... who cares that I had to go through all of this?" He pulled out one of the chairs t

Rex was going to practice his new enchantment but then he saw some students in his year going into another hall it seemed like a professor had scheduled a sudden class probably one that goes behind in the curriculum for that year and of course, nobody told him because they would rather see him kicked out of school than attending his classes.The moment he walked into class tongues had already started wagging, I knew they were talking about him again. The voice had given him a chance to become even more laughable than before, but he told himself to be patient and in a few moments he will be showing them his new enchantment.A smile immediately wrapped around his face as he got to a seat that immediately became empty the moment he slipped into it.In a few moments, the professor walked in, and the lanky bearded male scanned the class with a scrutinizing gaze."I'm sure that some of you are very unhappy about this sudden class, but please if you have something else to do then you should

The next morning, he woke up with a wide smile on his face, to the point that it seemed as if he was trying to touch his ears with the corner of his lips. His roommates were particularly curious about what had gotten him so cheerful that early in the morning when he had practically stumped into the room the evening before, complaining about a class that had been scheduled out of the blue. But since he was an outcast in the room there was no one that was going to ask him why he was so cheerful that morning, so they did the usual off taunting him, but he did not even spare them a single glance and just got ready for his first lecture that day. The person that will be teaching them that morning was the same professor that had embarrassed him the day before, this left his roommates even more confused as to why he was excited about that. but Rex was not able to make it to the class before he noticed that some people were following him from behind. When he stood waiting for them to pass,

The news that the wonder student of the first year had learnt another spell spread across the entire university like wildfire and for the first time in over a year people were talking about him but not in a gossiping manner. For the next few days, Rex was relieved because nobody came to bother him or bully him as before, and it was nice walking along the halls without having the fear of someone setting out their leg for him to fall, or going to his seat to find little pins scatter around it as a way of booby-trapping it for him. This was because all of his bullies were cowards who were actually just jealous of his gifts and so now that you have learnt a new enchantment and had executed it so nicely for his first try they were afraid that he would continue unlocking more enchantments. but as the days passed they watched him like vultures that wanted to swoop in on a corpse waiting for him to pull out another out and enchantment but then they realize that that was not happening any

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.

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.

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. But it didn't look like it was going to
