Chapter 148 - Announcement. (2/2)
Well, she is breathing a little bit more laboriously, and I now can finally see that she has gills on her neck, and there is indeed a blue shark fin in the top of her head. She takes a deep breath and says to me.
”I want you on my team”(Elsa).
”What team?”(Aizen).
”Didn't your first-period teacher explain to you?”(Elsa).
”No, he suddenly broke his legs”(Aizen).
”Wait how does someone suddenly break his-”(Elsa).
Ignoring her question I focus on what is truly important.
”What is this team thing you are talking about?”(Aizen).
”Right... Well at the start of your stay at Arcane University you need to form a team under the first month, the team has four members, one captain, and four other normal students. And I am a captain searching for some members, I already have a girl from High Wind and a boy from Fire act, so we thought someone from Quake Tower would be good, the first that came to mind was you so... Do you accept?”
”Sure why not?”(Aizen).
”Please can you recon- Wait you accepted? Yahoo!!”(Elsa).
She is incredibly happy right now, quite a terrifying sight is the smile of a shark girl with so many sharp teeth. Well, I have no right's to say this as I have something similar, my smile is quite terrifying after all, with all the fangs, pointed teeth, and stuff.
”Now Bluefin, pipe down classes is gonna start”(Aizen).
”Thank you, Joseph, the meeting is just after class in the library”(Elsa).
Well, she practically ignored me for a moment there. No problem, the class is going to start.
”Hello, my Name is Zoey Windrunner and I am your teacher. Please call me Ms.Windrunner”(Allessa).
”Today we will work a little bit on magic theory, and after some time we will work on some practical things the Illumination spell will do”(Allessa).
”The illumination spell has a lot of variations seeing as it is one of the first spells, some wizards and mages got quite creative with it, first there is the simple [Lumos] a favorite of wizards and such, then there is [Magelight] and as it name implies it is a favorite of mages. Does anyone know any more way to illuminate the ambient? You miss Whitefinn your eagerness to answer was noted”(Allessa).
”There is a lot of variations like the maxima variation as an example of [Lumos maxima], or the solar variation more used as a spell to hunt creatures of the night the Solaris variation, an example would be [Lumos Solaries]. About mages, I don't know much.”(Elsa).
”No problem Ms.Whitefinn your explanation was pretty good, I will be sure to give your extra points in the final scores. Excellent performance”(Allessa).
”As Ms. Whitefinn said there is indeed a lot of variations, the Solaris maxima too has variations on itself like the Helios or Agni variations, deities mingled a lot with mortals so they too influenced our magic so be sure to pay attention to you mythological studies, knowing the difference between some gods can and will save your life.”(Alessa).
”Going more on the mages is a lit bit more difficult, as mages are the more rational of the bunch they will rarely mingle with a deity to power their spell, and they are wise to do so, trying to mess with a god is a very deadly business so be wary of anything of their powerful proportions”(Allessa).
”For [Magelight] we have the Follower, the Great, and the Radiant variants, they are pretty self-explanatory as the follower follows you around the opposite of just standing there, the great is bigger and better, and the Radiant is really just more radiant. Mages are generally more practical so their name sense is pretty direct and normally will clue you to what the spell does. Thankfully they are smart enough to not scream the name of their spell out loud, this is normally only done on the very high-level spell that you need to announce to the world of their casting, or as a crutch to learn low-level spells.”(Allessa).
”Look this formula is for the [Magelight] spell and I would like the mages to experiment with it as much as they like, [Magelight] is one of the safest spells to experiment with, thus the high number of variants. But don't become complacent, the higher leveled spell will explode in your face while [Magelight] will at max shine brighter, but cautiousness can't hurt anyone remember that”(Allessa).
”Now I will vanish your seats and we will practice the illumination spells, be sure to not aim at the eyes of your colleagues, as much as our resident doctor can heal things easily it's better to just avoid bothering her”(Allessa).
She really did vanish our chairs, some people even look impressed at how easily she was able to do everything effortlessly. I already started thinking of how can I do the spell seeing as I can't do magic at all, and ideas come to mind. I have Storm Release(water+lightning), and when I use it in its laser form it shines like a [Magelight] or [Lumos], I just need to make it ball-shaped.
So using my Storm Release I summon forth a little ball of laser lightning that is extremely lethal, I expand it a little bit reining the wild jutsu the best I could, giving it directions is easy but maintaining it in the same shape for a long time not so much, but my vast mastery of water release helped me immensely, so I had the perfect round shaped Storm Release ball. Wich attracted the attention of a certain mischievous shark close to me.
”Wow, so pretty. It's way more solid and condensed than anyone else. I really have chosen wisely, you are very talented”(Elsa).
”Thanks, you did well too ”(Aizen).
”Now let me touch it.”(Elsa).
”No!”(Aizen).
”Let me touch it”(Elsa).
”No!”(Aizen).
”Please?”(Elsa).
”No!”(Aizen).
”Pretty pretty please?”(Elsa).
”No”(Aizen).
”You are no fun. humpf”(Elsa).
Girl this thing can one-hit kill you easily, please stop trying to kill yourself, pretty please?
After this the class went pretty smoothly, Allessa said more theories and stuff and I certainly learned a lot, she even complimented on my skill, bet it was more on my ingenuity of using Storm Release to replicate the spell than anything. It was some real classes, totally different from the broken legs Harry. The guy had it coming.
Soon it ended with Alessa dismissing us, I of course stayed as she wanted to talk for a bit. She didn't wait much quickly tackling me with a hug. It was nice, and have I said she is very beautiful yet? probably but I am gonna say it again. She is beautiful.
”I missed you...”(Allessa).
”Me too Allessa”(Aizen).
”Ready for our date on Sunday”(Allessa).
”The action movie right?”(Aizen).
”No you silly, this time is my turn to choose and you know I like romance”(Allessa)
”I know I was just messing with you. Hahaha”(Aizen).
”Heh...”(Allessa).
”But it's better if we talk more later, certainly mischievous shark is spying on us”(Aizen).
”Eep”(Elsa).
”Hahahahahah”(Aizen/Allessa).
”Bye/See you later”(Aizen/Allessa).
Exiting the classroom the mischievous shark started to bombard me with questions:
”Is Ms.Windrunner your girlfriend Joseph”(Elsa)
No, not yet anyway. We are still dating to see where this got us, but I won't be giving out info about my personal dating life to someone I met shortly.
”Something like that”(Aizen).
”Wow. the forbidden teacher and student relationship... So romantic. You can rest assured that your secret is safe with me, my lips are sealed”(Elsa).
”But right now we must speed up, the meeting at the library awaits us”(Elsa).
