City Mayor

Finally, the day of the ceremony arrived. On that day many hotshots made their way towards the only magic school in the city, Lightsway Magic school. It was a joyous occasion for many.

Students could also be seen entering the school with their parents. Jim was one of those students. He was currently walking towards the school gate with his parents and little sister.

"After the ceremony, big brother is going to become strong!!", Brianna said happily as they made their way towards the school gate.

" Yes, your big brother is going to become strong so that he can protect us", Mrs Rose said with a smile on her face. One could see that she was very happy.

Jim smiled when he heard their comments. He has always had a loving family. He felt that he was very lucky to have a family like that.

"The City mayor is coming!! Make way! Make way!", suddenly a shout was heard behind Jim's family.

Turning their head to the source of the shout, Jim's family saw a chariot swiftly approaching. The chariot was very beautiful. It was made from gold and it was been pulled by horses also adorned in gold ornaments from head to toe.

Seeing the rapidly approaching chariot, Jim and his family quickly made way for the chariot to pass. The chariot passed by them and proceeded to the school gates.

After a while, Jim and his family also entered the school.

The Magic Elements Selection ceremony was an outdoor ceremony. It took place in a massive stadium which is located at the centre of the school.

Currently, rows and rows of hot shots and parents sat on the seats in the stadium. Right at the centre of the stadium, stood a massive gate.

It was the Gate of Magic elements.

Currently, in front of the gate stood five rows of students. They're the students from Jim's class. Currently, a tall middle-aged man was standing in front of the class. He was holding an amplification stone.

After a while, he cleared his throat and said into the amplification stone," Ladies and gentlemen, My name is Mr James Walker. I am the spokesperson for the school's Headmaster, Mr William Acorn. We have gathered here today to..."

He gave a long speech about the school's history and the reason for the current occasion. After the long speech, he said," I would like to invite the current Mayor of the city to give the opening speech before we start the program.

*Clap.Clap.Clap"

The stadium resounded with deafening claps. This was because many people wanted to know what kind of speech the mayor will give.

"Hello, Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Mr Melvin Durk and I am the mayor of this city. Currently, the youngsters, our next generation are going to partake in the Magic Elements Selection Ceremony"

"They are our hope, confidence and beliefs. These children will be the fresh blood in the human mage system. They will uphold the right to justification and disapprove the ways of the wrong"

"Saying that, let's hope that we don't have any person from this batch of fresh mages that will approve the ways of the wrong"

"This is where the geniuses and talented people are gotten from. They are all gotten from the Magic Elements Selection Ceremony."

"And to the students, I hope you work hard to be recognized as one of the people who influence the whole human race. Now, let us start with the selection and generation of geniuses", The mayor who was sitting on the highest seat in the stadium said.

The mayor said a very short but motivational speech.

*Clap. Clap. Clap*

After the mayor's speech, rounds of applause came from the crowd. One could see they were very pleased with the mayor's speech.

" Okay, you guys should take this talisman with you, everyone picks one!", Mr James said to the students who were gathered in rows.

Students from the first row started to pick their talismans then the second row also continued. This went on until all the students picked theirs.

"The talisman I gave you is called the absorbing talisman. As its name suggests, it helps its user to absorb elemental mana. This will help you in the elemental realm. We have five minutes till the gate opens. You can use that time to prepare yourself.", Mr James explained to them.

" What element do you think you will get, Jim?", Jim's best friend, Jone Tale asked.

"I don't know. I guess I will leave it up to fate", Jim shrugged.

" I wish to get the fire element", Jones said to Jim after some time.

"Fire element, huh? Not a bad choice considering your behaviour", Jim chuckled and said.

The reason why Jim said that was because Jones was a very hot-headed man.

" it's time. The gate is opening!! The gate is opening!!",

Jim and Jones suddenly heard a shout. Turning their head back to where the gate was they saw the gate opening. The gate took some time to open. However, when the gate opened, what they could see was endless whiteness.

"Quick enter! Enter!", Mr James suddenly said.

Hearing that, the students entered the gate to an unknown world filled with raging flames and different danger factors.
