2022-10-03 21:33:50The 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 anytime soon.
"I'm so sick of hearing about that idiot everywhere I go!" three of his bullies gathered in the hallways
that connected to the lecture halls.
"Since the first day we came to the university, it's like nobody can ever stop talking about him Rex this Rex that... even when he became a useless nobody people were still talking about him he's such an attention seeker don't you agree?"
The other two, a boy that was shorter than him and a girl with pink hair nodded.
"You are completely right, it's as if you can't stand being away from the spotlight for even a second. It makes me sick to my stomach..."
she said, making a disgusted face as if she had just eaten rotten fruit.
"Someone really needs to put him in his place. The rest of us have already learnt about 4 to 5 enchantments in the past year and then he learns one more and the entire school goes crazy. What the heck?"
the shortest member of the gossiping bullies nodded in agreement with what she said.
"Tell me about it, the professors did not even care this much when we were gaining more enchantments..."
"Look here the moment I see that idiot again I'm going to squash him to the floor where he belongs, who does he think he is?"
said the tallest male in the group and then after saying it the girl with pink hair nudged him.
"It looks like we won't have to wait for a long time to see who's coming along the hallway..."
b she pointed her sharp fingernails towards the direction that workers who were unaware of their gossiping were coming from. They pretended to be discussing something else until he came toward them and then they formed a wall to block his way.
"Hey, Reggy was it? we are from the same year as you, you might not know us since we are not as popular as you..."
the girl said sarcastically.
"You know my name is Rex right?"
he said looking at all of them without an ounce of fear in his eyes.
"You guys pick on me every day so you should at least know my name right?"
The other boy among the bullies that were shorter than the girl threw his hand over Rex's shoulder.
"Buddy I don't know what you are talking about but you better not go spreading that lie to the professors that we pick on you. Come on, we're just messing with you as friends do..."
Rex immediately shrugged off the hand of the other male with a scoff.
"That's a very interesting dream you must have had because I think that is the only way any of us here can be friends..."
As soon as his words came out of his lips the other male grabbed him by his collar as if he wanted to strangle him.
"You have a lot of nerve, do you know that? So what are you saying that you are too good to be friends with us?"
The pink girl was panicking when she saw that this was about to burst into a fight. It was one thing teasing him and making fun of him because that was something that they could cover up with jokes but physical violence was something that if a professor saw they would get in big trouble.
"Just let go of the rat, he's not worth it..."
she said to her friend but he looked hesitant about it and then Rex said something that totally tipped him over.
"I don't think that I'm too good to be friends with you guys, I just feel like all of you are too low for me..."
At this point, the other male grabbed Rex off the floor and slammed his back into a wall.
"We are the ones that are too low for you? you must be really out of your mind just because you learnt one new enchantment..."
A crowd had already begun to gather but nobody was coming forward to help Rex and he was not surprised because this was something that a friend could help out with and if he checked last he had no friends.
The moment he stopped being the one that students were when their interest in him died, nobody would check on him if he didn't come to a class. Nobody cared if he was sick and nobody invited him anywhere. He was a total social outcast so he was not expecting what came next.
"so you are not going to apologize for what you said?" said the tallest among the three bullies
"Why should I apologize for telling the truth?"
"That's It I'm turning your face into a pancake..." just as he was about to do so the entire house shook when a loud voice yelled.
"you better stop right there!"

The bullies were surprised to approach them in the hallway and they were almost tempted to rub their eyes to make sure that they were not seeing an illusion because if they weren't they would not understand why she was so furious as she was marching towards them."Lyra?" one of the bullies called her name when she was finally in front of them, Lyra was the second most popular student in her first year and after that, but unlike Rex, she remained popular on a positive note because she excelled in all her classes though she was not as advanced as Rex was with his fire skill she was one of the leading students in his year.She had never once looked his way before Rex thought in his mind as she walked towards them."Don't you guys ever get tired of picking on Rex, he didn't even do anything to you!"she said to the bullies as she whipped back her brown hair that had golden highlights."Come on, Lyra, are you sure that you saw us right?"said the only girl among the bullies who had always

After he made a bet with the bullies that became the new hot topic at the University of Jared, everyone was talking about it eventually it got to the ears of the professors and then one professor took a particular interest in it, a lanky disciplinarian had graduated from the University for over three decades as the best of his year.So he summoned both of the boys to his office because he wanted to make some things clear."A wizard's word is not to be taken lightly..."he said to both of them."... and in this university, we did not only teach you how to hone your powers, but how to become responsible members of society that can handle this power... and responsible people do not lie or go back on their word..."The reason for his long speech was actually that he wanted to get involved in the bet.

As soon as both of them walk into the library together eyes were already being targeted at them and Rex casually looked at Lyra to see her reaction to all of this she was just walking beside him as if she did not notice the people that were staring at them and even whispering too.He could already guess what they were thinking, what was the most popular girl in the entire University doing with the biggest loser. She decided that she was going to leave eventually the moment she saw her people were going to be treating her differently so he did not have to worry himself too much about lecturing her."I've noticed you are coming often to the library these days... rather than the training hall..."she said to him as he was casually relaxing in his seat, initially, he wanted to ask how she knew his daily routine but then he waved it off and just decided to focus on studying there was no way he could get 100 gold bars so he had to pass this exam."Rex it seems that you are a very quiet pers

The professor was surprised to see Lyra sitting next to work, but he did not make any comments about it and just went home with the important announcement that he had come to tell them in the first place. "The exams have been adjusted by the higher council of wizards that run this University which I am also a member of I must note..." Rex began to feel his breathing becoming regular but he maintained a straight face because you could sense that the girl sitting next to him was staring at him intensely as if she was trying to shoot a hole through his head then his eyes remained on the professor as the man said that the decision to adjust the exams had gone through a lot of thorough examination and had been seen as the best decision. "There is going to be a group section of the exam, so if you do well in your other classes but then you fail in the group work it is seen as an overall failure..."

After 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

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

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

"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." It would h

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
