Low key

After the end of the lesson, the kids went to eat together and started thinking about where to train.

Samuel: "Can't we train in the garden just like we did yesterday?"

Zaho: "We did that because there was no one there, and we weren't training that seriously, training there is not a long time solution especially since I want us to stay lowkey..."

Pretty disappointed with the reason Lea tried to change Zaho's mind: "Why do you want to stay low key? can't we impress everyone with our progress? and show them what real genius is all about?"

Zaho: "There is nothing to gain by being high profile..."

Zaho seems to be 6 years old kid but remember, he lived more than a million years even though he didn't have that much time to contemplate life as he had to focus on survival, he was not that impulsive at all when it related to important choices.

Zaho: "Except for your parents that love you, and will never try to use you for their benefits other people aren't that generous."

Zaho: "What if they think that we possess a treasure that can enhance our progress speed?"

Zaho: "Problems ..."

Zaho: "What if an enemy country sent assassin because they think we are rare genius and don't want us to influence the balance of power?"

Zaho: "Problems ..."

Zaho: "What if an ambitious noble of our country doesn't want us to go on an adventure as he considers us like chess pieces, and put a restrict on us to not leave the country for our safety"

Lea: "Problems...Okay, okay I understand better now... guess we will have to stay low keys"

Samuel tried to console Lea: "If we are powerful enough to not be bound but anything, it will be not too late to show off then."

After that, they started to look around for a good spot to train but to no avail, they were a big area reserved for students to train their spells but as it was a public area too many students stayed there and they couldn't do their specials training there.

After around 6 hours of looking around, they still couldn't find anywhere to train, classrooms were either closed or occupied by teachers who were waiting for students to answer their questions.

Even the garden was used too much for student leisure, and even the most backward places were used for dating students who chased them away.

Jason: "I'm tired of looking around, we've been looking all day and didn't find any useful space we could use"

Zaho was just as much annoyed as them as he said: "Let's stop looking, if we can't find one it will be easier for me to create one"

He then proceeded to write an invisibility array in the garden at the left of the academy, it took him around ten minutes to finish the array. He then stomped his feet on the ground as it started to tremble.

All around the capital, the experts sharpened their senses as the ground trembled, even the king felt what as happening and wondered if the capital was under attack by an enemy invasion.

He sensed that the source of this trembling was located at the academy and ran as fast as he could there, as he didn't understand what was happening and didn't want something to happen to his loved daughter.

Lea, Albert, Samuel, and Jason stared at a 200 meters earth tower that emerged from the ground with big round eyes, they looked at Zaho

Lea, Albert, Samuel, and Jason: "Stay low key ?"

Zaho blushed and responded: "Don't worry I made an array and the only ones who can see this tower are those with an activated system"

he continued in even a lower voice as he tried to justify himself: "Samuel said that if we are powerful enough there is no need to be low key ?"

Samuel: "..."

The 3 others: "..."

After around 5 minutes all the experts at the capital were assembled at the academy, they did sense that it was the source of the tremor but they couldn't pinpoint the exact location.

Looking around, King Georges couldn't find the source of this tremor but he saw his daughter with a group of kids looking choked and was relieved to see her safe.

"Is everything okay?" said King Georges as he went next t his daughter.

Lea looked at her father and asked: "What are you doing here dad ?"

King Georges: "Of course I had to investigate this fluctuation"

Lea smiled awkwardly as she tried: " Isn't it just an earthquake?"

Jason, Samuel and Alfred bowed: "We salute your majesty, it was an ordinary earthquake"

Of course, a King and the best mage of the country could feel the kids were lying and were trying to hide something from him, but he didn't yet understand the situation and with his experience, he decided not to act rashly and look more around.

Except for the children that were bowing to him and his daughter that smiled awkwardly, with their back drenched in sweet, there was an additional kid that looked at him as he smiled, he remembered that kid was he the servant in a maid outfit as it left a pretty deep memory on him.

Zaho already made his decision a long time ago as he said: "If you want to know the truth about what happened, get rid of all the expert and come back alone for the explanation"

King Gerald felt strange but didn't want to complicate the situation, he thought there might a be a secret, his daughter seemed safe and didn't seem scared or threatened and he didn't know if it was related to his daughter, but if it was he would rather not have all the country knowing about it.

He nodded and went to disperse the crowd, he wasn't worried as if he didn't see the shocked faces of the four kids he would have too concluded that it was an earthquake.

As to not raise suspicion, he still asked them to look around to see if they could find anything suspicious he even said as his daughter was studying in the academy he'd rather be safe than sorry.

Even though the expert felt annoyed about wasting their time they still complied.

After around fifteen minutes king Gearoges came back to where the kids, as all the experts left.

He looked at Zaho strangely he knew he might be related this, he was the only kid that wasn't intimidated by his presence.
