The man's footstep sound was swallowed by the wind as he run through the forest of the Crook. He was almost at the orifice of the Willow now. He was safe. After the entire chase from the Milieus, the evil wizard's followers, they have finally given up. If only he had the permission to eradicate all of them he would have done it in a blink. But the orders were strictly no killing till time has come. He can only sigh; he cannot afford to contradict the Supremacy for the time being.  As he got at the clearing, the luminescent moon was shining proudly in the sky. It was a cloudless night. The moon's light illuminated his ashen hair and accentuated the sparkling blue parallel lining that surrounds it. He turned his gaze to the Willow of Llfhame and saw something glinting in the sky. Was it a star falling? Quickly, he entered the Willow following the direction of the light's descent which was now falling faster than it was earlier. It was gaining speed as it falls closer to t

 "Johann cannot make it Lista,” was the news I heard from Monk Amon early in the morning. It did make me sad. I was hanging on to the fact that Johann will be there for me on the entrance examination easing my nervousness. But what could I do, I guess he got caught up in an emergency for him to break his promise. He never once did back down to his word. Even at that time. He told me we would meet on my 17th birthday but my day nearly ended and even his shadow was not there, or so I thought. Because that midnight he came to my room with tattered clothes and bleeding arm. He was injured and in pain, but the words that came from his mouth made me shed tears. He was smiling when he said it. “I made it," was his words. So I know that something is up, some emergency that he could not leave. Well, I only hope he is okay. Right now I should get ready. Without Johann I might collapse because of nervousness. I am so anxious that I almost pleaded

The cheers outside hasn't subsided. The thrill of the exam was still on going the crowd wasn’t even growing tired while I on the other hand felt a thousand sharp knives piercing my body. The mental challenge was even harder than any physical exercise! Plus the mana exhaustion I was feeling, my body was ready to retire to bed anytime. Currently I am in the orientation hall of the academy. The 30 white mahò users who passed the second test were all gathered here. Out of the 150 examinees only this bunch withstood the challenges. Everyone’s appearance was traced with tiredness and faces were haggard as if they have ventured in a 1o kilometer run before arriving her but they also had satisfied expressions, proud that they have come this far. The headmaster himself will welcome all the incoming 1st years and will brief everyone regarding the rules and regulations of the Academe."Did you know? They say the principal is an aberrant," said Antonella, the second placer of the

An explosion covered the whole place with dust. Two people were in their fighting stance, both wands in each other’s throat. “You should give up, you can’t beat me Lalia” said the woman fighting against Lalia“Huh! Where will I see another wind mage as strong as you, if I beat you here I would be the strongest.” Lalia stood firm, resolved in beating the opponent. She threw another spell towards the woman, leaping backwards to have a better range.“Chime Wind, Defendio,” defended the woman. The opponent, who was also have wind as her element was clearly stronger than Lalia. But Lalia wanted to defeat her, not for her pride but to become even stronger to protect her love ones.“Power unfathomableBlow everything possible, Blast!” Lalia casted again, the spell produced a strong wind leaving even trees uprooted. But the opponent wasn’t so easy to deal with; another defensive spell was perf

“Call the law of natureHeed my desperate criesCool what hast lived in the windCrystal ice heaven shall send” A rain of crystalize ice poured down towards the vice-captain. I stumbled back receiving the impact of the heavy spell. Mist and dust covered the surroundings and shards of ice were stuck on the ground. When the smoke dissipated a taken aback vice-captain was standing there holding her right arm which was bleeding and the blouse of her uniform was torn revealing the wound caused by the ice shards in her shoulder. Her eyes were in fury, without wasting time she raised her wand, performed a quirk and threw a spell at me.“Seething fire of judgment,Burn my adversaryBefore their eyes show your fury!” The red orange fire blasted towards me ready to engulf me whole. It was exceptionally fast. I casted a Defendio defensive spell but was not fast enough, I receive burns in m
