"Hey guys!!!" I greeted everyone exiting the dorm building after getting a change of fresh clothes.
"You really do like the traditional Sorcerer robes." Jay smiled.
"You'd be the same if you grew up in my world." I smiled to him.
"So..... Do you think our duels were moved over the next week?"
"I hope not..... I've been training so hard! I'm so hyped!" Daisy said still sweating from her morning routine.
"Do you not want to.. wash or change clothes or something?" Jays said taking the tiniest step away from her.
"What do you mean?! I thought guys like the natural smell of women" she questioned slightly confused.
"That's a little too natural." Grace chuckled walking towards the dining hall.
"I really don't get it." Daisy sighed following us towards the dining hall.
"What they mean is guys do find the smell of women appealing, but sweat and musk isn't." I tried to explain to her.
"What���s musk?" she questioned looking just as or even more confused.
"I'm out, Jay you're up." I said out of ideas to explain.
"She means that the smell of sweat and.. whatever you smell like right now is not appealing." He smiled.
"What? but the Sister Evelyn said we should be natural the way Serra intended us to be.." She replied.
"Nope, Helen you're up." Jay replied chuckling
"Okay Daisy listen closely, most men like women to smell.. Pleasing and soft like a flower. Now because you exercised and stuff your smell is too concentrated so you kinda smell tough and aggressive.. Very aggressive." Helen explained in a slightly more elegant way.
"Hmmmm so Sister Evelyn must have lied to.. Me.." She whispered pondering.
"Who's Sister Evelyn?" I questioned
"Sister Evelyn was great! She taught us everything! From Serra to everyday life as a commoner!" Daisy said with a huge smile.
"She sounds great, maybe off on a few things I guess.." Jay smiled.
"She was so right.. I have so much to learn.." Daisy whispered to herself pondering on something
"Jeez it's alot busier today....." I said noticing the lack of seating.
"Woah.. What's going on today?" Jay said starring at the almost packed Dining hall.
"No kidding.. Even Travis, Paul and Scarlet is here.." Grace said pointing them out.
"Hey there little fella." Helen smiled at a small bug in front of her and flew away towards our house table.
"I think it wants us to follow it." Helen informed us.
"You can talk to insects as well?" Jay questioned.
"Normally I can but this one I couldn't.. For some reason, but I've got a feeling" she said walking towards our house table.
"Ohhh I think I see Ashley!" I said noticing he was the only person with free seats around him with the fly in front of him.
"Over here!!!" he smiled waving us to come over with Morgana sitting opposite to him.
"Is it me or its busier today?" Jay questioned Ashley as soon as we took our seats. "Ohh and hi Morgana." He smiled taking the free seat next to her.
"Yah.. Normally alot of departments tend to have their breakfast, lunch and dinner in their own department buildings." Ashley answered.
"Hello friends." Morgana smiled towards us making her look a little creepy.
"Hi!! Something special happening today?" Daisy asked in excitement.
"OHH yeah!!!.. the school has invited a guest this afternoon as a token of our gratitude for their help." Jay smiled extremely excited.
"Ohhh what guests?" I asked.
"One of the High Admirals that helped us yesterday." Ashley answered.
"No bloody way!!" I asked in shock.
"Yup Bran was extremely grateful so he invites them to Atlantis for lunch.. But I don't know how they will fit everyone." Ashley answered.
"Who's coming?" everyone else asked slightly confused.
"One of the High Admirals.. of Aspa." I answered for Ashley. "Do you do you think we get to see their sky fleet?" I asked in pure excitement.
"It's truly a sight to behold.. Artificing at its finest.. I've seen it three time and each time I'm always blown away." Ashley smiled.
"What really? The Gand Sky fleet of Aspa?" Jay asked in shock.
"We'll I'm not too sure.. But they were the ones that helped us so I assume so." Ashley answered.
"Wait isn't that dangerous? Since Paul is out of commission and Travis and Scarlet probably won't be able to take down a fleet of war ships?" Jay asked causing all of us to look at Jay in shock hoping for a good answer.
"Ohhhh you guys don't know?.." He laughed.
"It's not publicly known.." He whispered leaning forward causing us all to lean in with him.
"Hanna is the Daughter of Head Master Bran." He explained to us.
"Ahhh she must have been the younger looking woman when I first came here." I nodded in understanding.
"Really?" Jay asked in shock.
"Yup..... There's a long history behind it all but Atlantis are good friends with Aspa, so there's nothing to worry about." Ashley smiled.
"Is Atlantis in good standing with all the other schools?" Helen asked.
"Aspa more than Eshia but Atlantis do have good standing with both." He answered with a smiled. "But Zessia not so much.. So if you ever find yourself there, whatever you do.. Don't break any Laws!" He warned us with a serious tone. "Using Diplomacy to gain your release would be hard and forcing our hand might start a war we might not win." He added with a very serious tone.
"Why Zessia? I thought Eshia would be the most hardest to negotiate with." Grace asked.
"Abbraxsoth the Demon despite his title and name he's a very understanding and kind of friendly man.. His Eldest Daughter the strongest of the three is also very fond of Paul.. and don't forget his last remaining son is kinda here as well." Ashley answered with a giant grin causing Daisy to put a reassuring hand on my shoulder. "Paul has made some connections and friends with certain high ranked Zessia students but doesn't account to much since the main ruling body is the Council of Nine." He answered.
"Ohhh that's a little reassuring." Grace said extremely relieved.
"But there's nothing to be worried about anyways... Everyone think Atlantis is the weakest of the four.. But we are formidable in our own right." Ashlry smiled.
"Really?" Helen asked.
"Of course! Atalntis is a floating fortress! It's armed with its own defences, designed by none other than our very own R&D department." He smiled extremely prideful. "All powered by the limitless World Tree..... that's not including Head Master Bran has one spell that he can use that can wipe out an entire city in the blink of an eye." He smiled extremely prideful.
"Wow that actually pretty reassuring." Jay smiled nodding.
"Atlantis might have the least S-Ranked students of all the four institutes but Paul and Scarlet was the only two invited to Join the King's Guard.. so they are in a different league compared to the other institutes." He answered.
"They both that strong?" Jay asked.
"Have you never wondered why Atlantis is the only institute not participating in a turf war?.." Ashley asked rhetorically. "It's because their reputation alone is enough to stop any of the other institutes from doing anything to us openly and secretly..." Jay explained very seriously.
"It's hard to imagine that the both of them being so friendly to be so feared." Helen replied.
"The take no pleasure in killing.. But they will to save lives." Ashley answered.
