Chapter 43 - 17 Mystery (2/2)

” David Stutler, sit down now and dont cause trouble. ” Their teacher Mrs. Jones scolded him.

”Yes Mrs. Jones”Dave apologized and looks at the other students laughing at his actions and him being scolded by Mrs. Jones.

He glared at his best friend who caused all this trouble. He warned him, ” You better watch your back, Thomas. I will get back at you.”

” Yeah right. So do you dare to do it, or should I do it in your stead? ” Thomas challenged the future successor of Merlin.

Dave saw the look on his friends face and understood he is inciting him to take the step and if necessary he isn't afraid to act.

Dave was in deep thoughts until their teacher Mrs. Jones took them outside and explained them about the Statue of Liberty. They all sat on the stone stairs and listened to their teacher's explanation.

Dave braved himself and wrote something on a piece of paper. He then passed it on to the one in front of him and asked him to pass it on to Becky.

Dave and Becky looked at each other before she replied on the paper. Their teacher takes them to other places and walks away.

She then placed it by her side and follows the crowd.

” Go get it tiger. Meet your destiny.” Thomas motivated him and walked towards the crowd leaving Dave to follow his destiny.

As Dave walked away in pursuit of the piece of paper, Thomas senses there was a hint of magic at work. ' I guess this is the backhand of one of the greatest sorcerer ever. '

He followed the crowd. He kept his senses focused in the direction Dave has left for he knows soon there will be a fight which will help him discern the level of difficulty he may face in the future.

Suddenly, Thomas stopped sensing Dave and understood he entered the shop of Balthazar.

Becky suddenly appeared at his side and asked, ” Where is Dave, Thomas?”

Thomas was startled and spoke, ” Oh, that. That paper drifted away with the wind so he went to catch it. Don't worry. He knows his way around here. He can come back. ” he tried to reassure her, more like doesn't want to involve unrelated people.

” What piece of paper, Mr. Allens?” Mrs. Jones heard their talk and asked about Dave's where about.

Dave didnt say anything about Becky but said an important piece of paper drifted away and Dave followed it to get it.

” When He gets back, Mr. Stutler will be having detention for the rest of the year? We have to get him. Where did he go, Mr. Thomas?” Mrs. Jones inquired him.

At that very moment, he felt a large amount of energy much stronger than what he can use before arriving in this world.

He turns to that direction.' This energy is released by collision of magic powers. Only that force can break the isolation barrier around the shop. ' he thought to himself.

” Its that direction then. Students follow me. We will first get Mr. Stutler and then continue our trip.” Mrs. Jones declared and walked in the direction Thomas turned.

Just as expected, they met Dave in the way. His outlandish story, as well as wet pants, made him a subject of criticism when they didn't find anything out of ordinary.

Thomas pats his shoulder without any words and thought, ' I have ten years time to reach Archmage level or at least peak grand mage or else I will die and fail the test. They are both peak Grand mage, so Morgana must is an Archmage or Great Archmage.'

With that Thomas has a goal in his mind.
