This creature, slowly marching towards him like death itself, the bones below scattering across the floor as he floated with the power of the wind, mind racing as he knew that he needed to defend himself, ruined book shelves around him as some where pulled down due to this monster and its need to make a nest, skulls with scratch marks from flesh getting torn from its body and many little leg marks from this creature stepping on it over and over again.
"You almost had me, now just surrender and let me eat you, the less you squirm the less I have to cut you up and eat you!"
Darrien again felt the cold shiver down his back as he would take steps back, his mind racing as he needed a way to defend himself against such a creature, being in its lair. He felt the wind starting to grow in potency as he would start to pull it together, a large wall of wind slowly forming as he would grit his teeth.
The monster would screech again as the mucus would fire across the area, it would pull itself forward and pounce towards him, the wall forming quickly as it would slowly lose speed and eventually get forced out, landing back towards the entrance. It's face seemed confused as it would slash down against the barrier, its claw simply pushing into the wind before getting forced out, its eyes flashing with annoyance as it would screech again.
"You foolish human, I will devour you slowly now, I will make sure to tear off parts one by one and make sure you suffer for stalling!"
Darrien would groan against such a thing, slowly looking at the wall, it was a good protection against this beast as it seemed he could not get through, though he was stuck behind this wall till the creature either gave up or he ran out of this magical power, he could feel the power slowly fading from him, he had once shot to get rid of this beast and then escape.
He would think back to the few lessons he had gotten before, though he would come to realise one simple mistake, wind is a mobile force while putting it into a wall like this was something it was not strong for, Earth was better at making walls and structures while wind was good at agility based magics, he would try to think of a way to use this while still keeping himself protected.
"You will die, I will eat you!"
He felt his blood boiling as this monster still tried to claim his life, he did not even taste that good, he used cheap shampoo and even smelled kinda bad, though that was mainly down to the sweat his body was covered in from almost getting killed several times, he wish he could just push this creature away.
He would blink before shaking his head. "Why did I not think about that!" He would grab the wind wall with his mind, slowly advancing it inch after inch, the wind wall could be moved as it was not a physical wall but wind acting as a barrier, the monster like creature seemed to know what was happening as it screeched, trying to pull away before the wind started to advance rapidly. The bones, dust and old books would get swept up, everything pushed along as the entire old book section was getting catapulted out and into the open area, the monster riding along on the wave of wind.
"N..No! Stop! Ill give you anything! you can't do this!"
It would screech till the wind wall pushed it out into the wide open area. Bones, skulls and old books scattering as the beast was flung out into the wide open space in the centre, starting to fall in a free fall down the open area.
"I WILL DESTROY YOU!"
This was the last thing this monster said before golden spears pierced creature several times, the angels using this thing as target practice. The public began to scream as the agents of the union began to surround the area, during the panic and crazy parts, Darrien would slip past them all and quickly make his way back to the portal, having slipped into it as he entered back into his university, he was luck as he entered the portal would shut rapidly behind him, students stunned as he would quickly and rather briskly walk away.
Darrien made his way out of the college, he was the happiest he had even been so far in his life, this was amazing as he felt he had something that tied him to this new world, he did not know how powerful this magic was but he really cared not, he felt the wind still around him as if under his command, though he did not take it for granted in the slightest, he knew this was a partnership between them both and he had to still respect that.
His travels would take him into the convince store, the same Elven woman would look at him with boredom and pure apathy, her eyes would go wide as she watched this same man starting to use magic, the wind seemed to grab the bottles of Cen-Water and bags of cheap potato snacks and put them onto the counter, she was so purely shocked due to the skills he had displayed, this was not normal.
Darrien would watch the Elven woman, she seemed to almost be broken. "Huh maybe she just hates this job to much." He would the items over to the self checkout, quickly scanning, packing and paying before leaving. The Elven woman just staring at him before he left the store.
"How is that possible. He..what?"
Eventually he would reach his apartment block, more like sardine block as he reached the top of the stairs, using the card to enter as he licked his lips.
"Darrien the Wind Mage!" he would nod his head slowly.
"Oh, Mr Wind Mage, what are you talking about?"
He would stop in his tracks, slowly turning to the woman behind him.
"Oh! Karen you need to stop that, nearly scared me"
Karen started at him before raising an eyebrow, arms folded as she would force her way in. "So Wind Mage, is that some sort of farting joke?"
She said looking purely disgusted, shaking her head.
"Also I was looking for you after class, but your teacher gave me daggers, may I ask what happened?"
"Oh, well its a rather simple story. I've got magical powers!"
Karen raised an eyebrow, she was about to pull out her phone and call for a medical officer for mental treatment.
"Sorry, one more time. I did not hear you correctly."
He would frown slightly. "I have magical powers, I can use wind magic"
Karen felt like crying or even laughing, her childhood friend had his brain turn to mush, shame she had liked him.
"You just failed all the tests, magical ability is impossible for you... Now after several hours you come to me and say you can use magic!"
Darrien shook his head slowly before sighing.
"Look, I cant explain it, but after touching a strange book I gained powers to do this" He decided to leave out the dream state stuff, he already sounded crazy so its best not to add fuel to that fire.
"Darrien, you dont have magical powers!"
He would sigh as he looked at the remote, slowly using his powers as the remote started to lift from the table, flying around thanks to the air, the room starting to become gusty as the entire place started to smell fresh again.
"HOLY FUCK YOU HAVE MAGICAL POWERS!"
Karen felt like hitting her head off the floor, well at-least his place got a nice spring clean, it was starting to smell.
