The skies in the interior of city rose were deem, the dark clouds hugged the sun and sheeted the sun light from the city.“Rachel Almshouse, come forward”. A guard in brown uniform called out to which a young female enlistee rushed out and responded.“Here sir”.The guard looked this girl over, the kid looked really clumsy, seeming like one of those klutzy middle aged teachers from a degenerate romcom.“Activate your magic and strike down the target in front of you”. Rachel took in a sharp breath and glared at the circular arrow head target in front of her, Rachel was so grim that even the guard was starting to feel nervous.Rachel lifted her hand and aimed squarely at the target, she skewed her eyes into slits.Astonishingly, A cluster of small fireflies looking objects that glowed with a white light began to materialize in-front of her.The more focused Rachel seemed the more tensed the crowd became, suddenly Rachel screamed, startling Dawn Allen, causing the guy next to him that
Within the dark hallway.The trio silently followed the male guard in brown uniform till Elias finally broke the fragile silence.“If I may, I would like to pose a question that has bothered me for a while now?”. “Go on ahead”. The man replied calmly.Elias swallowed softly, the mans overly serious expression pressured them, but that didn’t stop Elias from imposing.“What is the school actually called?, some people call it the military academy for mages while others call it the academy of mages, what is it exactly?”.The guards expression was still as indifferent as always. “That’s two questions, but I’ll still answer them both...”. The footsteps of the guard echoed through the quiet hallway as the trio held their breaths in anticipation, and then finally he began to speak.“Firstly the schools name isn’t what the masses call it nor does it have any peculiar fancy titles, it’s not reserved to a specific group and the name is simply Academy, and as I said the school isn’t reserved fo
City Rose, interior.Elias, Kuluwa and Geoffrey stood before a massive black gate, the top of the gate had a black rose edged at the top and the black steel the gate was forged from gave the academy an ancient and heavy air, and the fact that barely anybody is sighted around the area or even walking in and out of the gate added an ominous vibe to the already cold exterior of the magic academy.The person amongst the trio with the most exaggerated expression had to be Geoffrey, he’s mouth looked like it was about to suck in a river as he marveled in awe.“So should we go in or?”. “Let’s go”. Elias answered Geoffrey without any hesitation, he seemed so determined that Kuluwa had to give him a second look....The interior of the academy wasn’t as big as they expected, in-fact they only saw one or two buildings in site, and in front a slightly less disappointing building that seemed like a reception of some sort.The trio didn’t waste time mincing words and went straight in.The first t
The next day, the usual heavy downpour on city rose regressed, even though the sun didn’t exactly shine like other places but a light drizzle is still worth throwing a party over.Elias and Angel were riding a carriage into the interior of the city, the city is divided into the interior, mostly for the wealthy, nobles and royals, and then there is the common region or the commoner region of the city, where the middle class and some higher class citizens live in, also the place Angel and Elias live, and finally the exterior, the most unstable place in city rose, mostly occupied by third class citizens of the city.Elias has never been in the interior before, so he kept on admiring the beautiful view of the city till it reached the point Angel was worried for her reputation.“You keep staring like that and everyone will know you’re a country pumpkin”, Angel said helplessly.“But I am a country pumpkin”, Elias said while smiling warmly at Angel’s annoyed look.While Elias kept on admirin
A lightning strike criss crossed across the sky of city rose, the dark clouds shrouded the streets, with a drop leading the way millions more began to fall on the capital city of empire voltrose.“One more over here boy”. A customer yelled out while choking down a cup of wine and meat.“Coming”. Elias’s bass voice replied from behind the counter, he grabbed a tray filled with beer and leaped over the counter. Elias landed firmly with his feet’s placed on the ground. “Hey old man Ken, I heard you made a killing this time around”. Elias said as he dropped the tray of wine jars on the table.“Hahahha, Nothing gets passed Angel’s kid after all, my boys and I got hired to Assassinate some politician over in empire Mali, apparently he pissed off a prince of Bida, but what does the details have to do with us, money is all that matters”. Ken immediately erupted into wild laughter together with his companions.Elias chuckled lightly, “Well just try to be careful, Mom said she’s not taking in a
The next day, the early mornings of city rose were never that different from the noons and evenings, dark clouds covered the sky and the rain came from above as if the heavens desire to drown the city and its inhabitants.Elias grunted a bit as he felt the cold chill mixed in with the slight warm atmosphere of the morning, he felt a strange presence watching him but he was too exhausted to pay attention to it at the moment.Shadow bit his lower lip and clenched he’s fist till his bones creaked, he gazed hatefully at Elias laying in the bed with his arms around Zeldas waist, they both slept together last night and unknowingly started to cuddle at some point.Shadows only wish at the moment was to rip Elias to shreds, but he couldn’t do that or more like he doesn’t dare to try cause the mage Angel was standing right next to him with an ambiguous smile on her face, Always knew my son will be a lady killer.But in the end she had to wake them up before shadow completely lost he’s mental sa
My name is Elias Angel, I am the only son of the military’s lightning mage Angel, I hold no noble titles nor are my a gifted individual. meaning, I’m not a mage like my mom, I lost everything to the wars the empire fought but I do not resent my country, for I shall Inherit my mother’s legacy”.Angel that was in the kitchen almost dropped the knife in her hand, tears welled up in her eyes as she felt an inexplicable sense of fulfillment, she clasped her hand on her mouth so as not to make a sound, her breath was slightly rough, but at the end of it all a bright smile was revealed after she moved her hands to her chest. “Thank you”. She quietly whispered to herself.Even shadow was slightly stunned, it was like the arrogant brat suddenly had some kind enlightenment phase, but wait a minute. He’s not a mage?, I guess it doesn’t flow in the family. Shadow harrumphed.Elias felt at peace, it was like a weight on his shoulders had suddenly been lifted and replaced with something just as heav
“How the hell did you become a mage?”. Elias questioned intently, he acted like he didn’t really care about being a mage but that has always been a lie, a pretend act, being raised by a powerhouse of a mage would naturally want anyone to yearn for that power. but most of all, he wanted to inherit he’s mothers legacy.“Well it just kinda happened, I woke up one morning with my powers and then dad found tutors to teach me how to use them”. Zelda quickly replied, the look in Elias’s eyes genuinely terrified her.“Just like that”.“Just like that”. She reaffirms.“Alright then, I guess they really are people out there who are just born special, like Angel... my mom”. Elias felt helpless, the one thing he actually wanted seemed like a far fetched dream, an impossibility, something he’s mother couldn’t just punch her way through and retrieve for him, for once he has to fight a battle on he’s own.While Elias was lost contemplating he’s next move Zelda proceeded to take off her cloak, reveali
“Why did you attack my son”.Seeing the the line of blood on Elias‘s neck made Angel’s brows cross, the frown on her face further terrified shadow, “it-it wasn’t me, he attacked and kidnapped my young lady.”Are you fucking kidding me, I didn’t sign up for this, at the moment this woman is even scarier than the lady of the palace. Shadow silent thought to himself.Before Angel could say another word, Erika finally burst through the door of the clock tower and caught up to the group. “What the hell happened here”. Erika saw a totally ravaged rooftop and a cloaked dark mage on the ground kneeling before Angel, he clearly seemed terrified, and at the edge of the roof a fourteen year old boy holding the hands of a cloaked little girl, what the hell did I miss?.But before she could even finish digesting what was happening in front of her Elias decided to break her psyche.“Mom, Just kill him already, that bastard almost hacked my head off.”The moment Elias finished speaking, Erika that
