Chapter 75

"I'm fine." I said

"Since I'm free right now, why don't we have some fun?" Mars said.

'What are we going to do?" I asked him.

"I have a game my master assisted me with, let's give it a try." He said.

Aldin Randell

The following day Darvin and I met at the roof.

"What do you think about his proposal?" Darvin asked.

"I would have liked to take a look at how things in the outside world are but right now I don't think I'm ready for it. I want to be strong enough when I get out of here. And so I will take on the offer, I've thought all this through a lot."

"And so have I, I will continue to follow you." Darvin said.

"But why, isn't going out going to be more beneficial for you than staying here with me."

"Not at all, whenever we are close together my improvement always skyrockets." He said.

"Then now we should go inform him of our decision." I said and we went to the principal's office.

"Good decision." Master said with an expression of joy on his face.

"But what do we do now?" Darvin asked.

"Since you will both be graduating, you need to go through the graduation process."

"Which is?" I asked

"The fourth years are prepared for leaving the academy. You need to take them hunting in thee woods, the prey they get thy will use to forge their armor."

"And when is that going to happen?" I asked.

"Four months from now." HE said.

"Then what will we be doing before then?" Darvin asked.

"I am going to put you all to work." He said. "You are soon going to be temporary professors of the academy so I expect you both to pull your weight. Take on some classes, work as assistant professors or even help in the work around the school. Choose whatever you wish for yourself."

It took me some time to think what I would do but he gave us some advice.

"I wouldn't advice any of you to teach any theory classes. Your trail of thinking is way too complicated for other students."

"Then I'll take on magic combat." Darvin said.

After thinking it through, I came up with the answer I thought was most suitable for me.

"I'm also going to take on magic combat. I don't think I can teach anything else."

"Good, from tomorrow Aldin will take over fourth year magical combat and Darvin Second year. This is not based on your skill or strength but just to help the fourth years learn a lesson of humility and second years to get an inspiration. It will be a great help for me, lesson for them. Agreed."

"Yes." we said. And we both left

When Darvin and Aldin left I immediately called the two professors in charge of combat classes and informed them that Aldin and Darvin would be assisting in their classes. One of them looked slightly displeased with the decision but I couldn't wait to see what would happen.

The following day two guards picked up the two of them and took them to their respective training areas. Darvin got to his place first. The second years were excited when they saw him. Morris, their magic combat teacher informed them what I would be doing for today. Darvin stood at the side to observe what would happen first.

Professor Morris first grouped them according to their attributes then went around giving them instructions. They would then begin to practice among themselves. At one point the Morris called out for Darvin.

"I would like you to go on short training matches with them and help them realize any of their flaws. It'll help them greatly, are you alright with that." He asked to which Aldin nodded and after a few hours, he started going around groups and fighting short matches with them.

For the first student, they were great attackers that focused on muscle training from the huge muscle he had and was an earth user, he went for a punch but Darvin dodged it. After several missed attacks, he began panting but Darvin was still fine with even having broken a sweat.

"You should have used your magic to empower your attacks, it will not make you any weaker, and in fact combining the two of them would make your attack power higher. The next student was a student who was quite slim. Immediately the match began she moved back some distance from Darvin and began firing ice projectiles, Darvin simply dodged them but when they came to close he would hit them away. She too got tired easily and came back to the middle.

"You have great power but that can also be added upon when you are close enough, work on your muscles as well so that you can be able to land decent attacks. And if you are attacking, I advise you form them above your opponent not behind yourself, if they do it, it lands on you." Darvin said to her. Next up was Olivia.

When the battle began she immediately fired punches, they were quick and the next second behind Darvin ice projectiles were fired, Darvin noticed them and collide them with his own, for the next few minutes it was so.

"Good combat ability, though you should work on using ice magic more, it you had used a frozen floor I might have slid and lost the battle.

The previous day in the evening Mars had taught me how to play the game, at first it was hard remembering all the rules of them but I soon got the hang of it. Mars had also recently started playing it. Once I got the hang of it playing it became easier and I was able to beat Mars.

"How are you so good at this?" Mars asked.

"It's just easy to understand it." I said, giving him my honest opinion.
