Chapter 18 - It all starts with a Dream

(AN: Online schooling has started here so chapters will vary in release.)

"So with that schools of yours who's gonna be apart of it?" I questioned Rowena as I flew through the air before stopping and looking at the incredible view down below as the mounting side and the stunning visuals surrounding it.

With astonishing mountainsides, it brews fantastically with the rich forests that spread through and were finally accompanied by a dazzling riverbank.

"Quite the view ain't it most would say dazzling although not quite comparable to you," I flirted.

"Of course I am magnificent after all maybe that's why you fell for me," She smiled lightly flicking my nose.

"So this school of yours, what would you call it?" I stated.

"I'm not too sure," She replied staring at the view.

"Hmm how about Hogwarts?" I replied looking at the many flowers that littered around the area.

"As in the flowers?" She questioned now looking at the flowers.

"No, I'm talking about the pig over there taking a shit next to the flowers," I teased.

"No, I was thinking more on the lines of you seeing as you're such a brute and quick to use your fists like a hog," She shot back.

"Anyway the name? You like it?" I asked quickly changing back to the main topic.

"Trying to change the topic again aye? Well, the name has a nice ring to it," She replied gazing towards the forest and flowers.

"Though we will need teachers and staff although we have the money, personnel with good interest cant be bought. Who do you recommend we should rope into your Project?" I asked.

"I know someone who would take the spot I also know Helga could also take the spot as one," She replied.

"Though the question remains how and where are we going to build our school," I stated.

"Right here would do the trick but how to build it," She continued.

"Merlin and Alexandria still owe us that favour remember?" I snickered. Oh boy, are they going to pay me in full.

"Well, our preparations are set. let's do this," I stated as we teleported back to Camelot.

"So yes I want you to build this castle in full," Escanor stated.

"This will require quite the manpower though how will we travel there?" Merlin asked confused.

"Rewona over here will teleport workers," Escanor informed.

"Hmph, this will take a while though doable. The money though will be quite hefty do you have nay to spare?" He questioned.

"None at all," Escanor replied with a straight face.

"This will cost a hefty sum... We'll get it done," He responded.

"Say before you go have you seen Conrad? For a loyal knight like him, he would be around here." Escanor asked.

"I thought he went with you?" Merlin questioned causing Escanor to think to himself.

"Did something happen?" Merlin asked.

"No... Nothing at all," Escanor replied before going off to see Helga and Rewona to meet up with a certain person.

"So you're saying you are going to build a magical school for wizards?" The man in question asked.

"Of course not only will wizards be protected they will also learn to the arts to magic without the worry of being hunted and burned on the stake," Rewona stated.

"Hmph it sounds too good to be true but why would you need to create such a school if we have Camelot to protect us?" He argued.

"Will Camelot protect you when you exit its gate and are purged and tortured by the very people you are afraid of?" A voice shot back.

"Will it teach you how to cast your first spell? Teach you how to create potions without the worry of failures and destruction? When families inside Camelot grow how will the children learn and grow when sheltered by their families?" The voice continued.

"Then I will accept this proposal but if I find this school to be flawed I will leave immediately." The man stated as he crossed his hands his eyes piercing Rewona with Determination. Though she only looked back unflinching.

Now in a table, 5 people sat staring intently at each other while one looked unbothered and unflinching as he read a book on the basics of magic.

"I have brought all of you here today to discuss our plans for our school. I say us as this school is a an investment for not only us but the future. We will now discuss the houses and what we will represent. The emblems that we flag now will carry on for decades. I will hand out a piece of paper which you will write down what your students will have to represent and what traits they have to have to enter," Rewona instructed handing out quills and paper.

"No, I'm good Rewona I'd rather not have my own house it would be too bothersome I'd rather just teach the blade and body then look after a whole selection," Escanor replied as he turned down the offer.

"Then how about a small group of sorts? Where you would elect four students of each house where you would train them in the art of the sword and body?" She proposed before being shot down by Slytherin who looked in disdain at Escanor who looked unbothered as he flipped over his books.

"Why would you teach such a vile act of swords that is nothing but muggle arts," He replied angrily standing up.

"Tell me what would happen if you ran out of mana in a fight to the death? Would you just allow him to kill you or would you rather dodge and Grab the nearest object and stab his eyeballs out? Or are you a man who would just bend over and allow yourself to be defeated?" Escanor questioned as he continued to flip over his book. This caused to Salazer to stop and think.

"Sit down Salazer you have much to learn," Escanor continued before dropping his book on the desk and walking out leaving Helga to also think while Rewona and Godric continued to write.

Escanor walking out looked over the now built castle looking down at the stunning mountain range. Grasping a cup of tea from the void he stared mindlessly as his mind sank into the view below.

"Fuck would I go for some cake right now... A coke too...Man do I miss my Collection" Escanor muttered before drifting back into the clouds.
