VIII. Training

Faramis started to train Gusion.

Before teaching Gusion real magic Prodigious magic, he decided to teach him fake magic first while doing physical training.

Faramis started, "Alright I'm going to teach you my first trick. (Blushing) First trick is you must be cool and handsome every time you perform so the girls (Faramis thinking about beautiful and good looking girls while talking.) will appreciate your performance and will keep on coming back to watch you each and every time you perform, One more thing is eye contact, you must keep on looking to your audience especially the girls with big big dreams. (Faramis pervertedly talking while smiling)

Gusion interferes, "Wait, what?; Is that necessary?, You perv old man! "

Faramis replies, "Yeah, it is, you need to be motivated when performing, It will help you be more confident. Just do what I tell you, kid. (Faramis Laughs); Next I want you to jog every morning and run in the afternoon, You must be physically fit and also mentally, and emotionally, and spiritually, important is sexually." (Giggles)

Gusion interferes again, "Oh come on you perv Old man, let's be serious here. Don't fool around.

Faramis continues, " I am not fooling you kid just do what I tell you if you want me to teach you new magic."

Faramis then teaches Gusion some magic tricks that he can use when performing.

After that Faramis tells Gusion to grab his knife and throw it forward and control it to stop midair. Then throw it to a specific target and pull it back. Gusion does it slowly. (Gusion sweats fast as he does what Faramis tells him to.) Faramis then tells Gusion to do it repeatedly for 1 week.

Day after, Gusion wakes up early to cook and eat breakfast, after eating he jogs from his home to park back and forth, after jogging he proceed to weight lifting after that he runs from home to park back and forth, then does the knife trick.

Gusion never missed a day, It has been his daily routine.

A week had passed.

Faramis now teaches Gusion another trick.

"Hey Gas-On do you see that round bread over the table?, Faramis asks.

Gusion replies, "Yeah why? "

I will make it disappear just follow what I tell you to; Go near the table and grab it, (Gusion follows) Now I want you to swallow it..... See it is now gone, it disappeared right?, Wow magic!, Sometimes you don't need to be serious kid, make people laugh. Don't you any have a sense of humor in you. People will get bored of you if you can't make them smile; come here I'll teach you the next trick; Look there at that window and tell me what you see.", Faramis giggles.

"You crazy old man!, That's underwear of girl you perv.", Gusion uttered.

After joking around Faramis asks Gusion to throw his knife upwards, above his own head.

Gusion stops, "What?, Are you trying to kill me?, Why would I throw it above my head?."

Faramis replies, "Just do it kid, If you really want to learn Prodigious Magic, you must trust yourself first, and you must believe in yourself. Now do it.

Gusion asks, "Purodi what? "

Gusion throws his knife upwards above his head. When the knife goes back downwards to his head, it suddenly stops midair before it hits his head. Gusion trembles while waiting for the knife to hit him.

"Look up kid.", Faramis tells Gusion

Gusion slowly looks up and sees the knife midair.

Faramis explains, "You once said that you can control the knife like it is a part of you, I told you to trust and believe in yourself. You can't see it but I do, It is like invisible strings, it connects you to the knife so you can control it; You are using Pro Magic while doing the trick so whatever you want it to do, it does without you touching or holding it; It is not Fake Magic, but Real Magic. I want you to keep on doing that every day until you do it without trembling or being afraid."

Gusion confusely asks, "Pro Magic?, What are you talking about Old man?, You told me before there ain't Real Magic, now you're telling me that I can do real Magic? Tell me."

"Listen kid, just keep doing what I tell you to, I will tell you and teach you all about Pro Magic when you are ready," Faramis replies.

After a week Gusion perfects his knife magic.

Faramis now teaches Gusion to use speed when doing the trick.

Gusion throws his knife forward and pulled it backward swiftly, he then throws it again and runs fast to catch the knife before it hits a target.

Faramis interferes, "Focus your energy to your feet while running, it will help you run even faster than usual. It is just like what you always do to control your knife when it is still in your hands.

Gusion keeps on doing the trick with speed until he gets used to it.

A few days later Gusion perfected it and showed Faramis.

Faramis was shocked watching Gusion.

Gusion was so fast Faramis can't even follow his move.

"Wow, did he just do a fade step?, This kid is impressive." Faramis's thoughts while watching.

Faramis told Gusion to rest after training.

So they eat dinner and tell jokes on each other, tell stories and laugh together.

Gusion thanked Faramis for everything he taught him and for making him smile and happy. Gusion treated Faramis like his father.

Gusion added, "Stop being perv old man."

(Laughing together) So what about this "Prohigu", Real Magic you are talking about? "

Faramis replies, "Tomorrow kid I will tell you all about Pro Magic, for now, you should sleep and rest.

Gusion falls asleep. Faramis lifted him to his room. Faramis stares at him and tells he is thankful too, because if him he almost forgot that he is on a mission.

"Goodnight! Gas-on."

All of a sudden a Harper appeared.
