Chereads / Lost Soul's / Chapter 26 - MY Power

Chapter 26 - MY Power

After Clavis walked inside, Henderson came over to me "Well done, but you seem... bothered?"

"Hm, using that makes me remember what happened at Calmite, so many died because of me. I let that, thing, take over me and the citizens paid the price"

"Well think of it this way, if you didn't let that happen, you along with many, many more would have died. Yes, he killed a lot after taking over you but, with the knowledge you gained from that you could save many more lives."

"I guess your right."

"You know what they used to call me?"

"What?"

" "The Demon of Doval", Doval was my hometown, I used to specialize in demonic magic but one day a group of bandits attacked Doval and I used a new spell I had been working on, but it was far more powerful than I thought, it let out waves of purple miasma that covered my home town, killing the bandits and almost everyone else. Only a few survived and after that everyone looked at me like a monster until I left the country, after that I started swordsmanship, and look where I am now, a royals teacher"

"Why are you telling me this?"

"The point is, you can mean to help everyone and end up hurting them, no matter what it's possible, but what matters is what you do after, will you be stuck in the past and suffer or will march forward and become a stronger person for it. And besides it's YOUR power, not his."

"....Thank you for telling me all that. I think im gonna turn in"

"Ill see you tomorrow"

You walk back to your room "Hey Andrew!" Terram is always there first "Hey, how was training today?"

"It went great! Im starting to get ahold of Rock Armor, watch!" starting at his feet rock armor started to form and crawl up his leg stopping at his knee "that's as much as I can do right now" he's always exited when talking about magic, you cant help but smile at it,

"Cool! I learned Cutting Blaze as my first spell watch" you draw your sword and catch it on fire and swing it a bit "Good job! I've heard it takes some people week's to learn it"

"It probably because my bodies used it before. Now she's teaching me to shoot a wave of fire from it"

"Good luck! Oh yeah Clavis told us to meet her at the training yard tomorrow"

"Oh okay, why?"

"I don't know, she didn't say"

"Alright, well goodnight" you both went to sleep.

The next day most of it went normally after sword training you just stayed there.

"Don't you have to go to Clavis's lab?"

"No she said meet her here"

"Ah, okay"

"Oh yeah! Yesterday you said you were a "royals teacher" what did you mean"

"Well I originally came here because the king hired me to train one of his sons, he'll actually be here soon, I usually train him after you." as he said that a young boy with brown hair came

"Is that him?"

"Yeah. Greetings your majesty"

"Who's this?" he asked

"He's one of my other students"

"Why's he here today?" He seemed arrogant

"Clavis told him to wait here for here"

"So this is FW huh? He doesn't seem that impressive..." he analyzed you

"Who knows, I might just surprise you"

Clavis and Terram came into the training yard.

"Oh! Your majesty, I wasn't expecting you! I apologize if I'm disturbing you."

He waved his hand dismissively "It doesn't matter, continue with your class" we walked to the other side of the balcony

"So why are we here today master?" Terram asked

"Starting today both of you will begin having practical training out here."

"So we don't destroy your Lab?"

"Exactly. Now Andr... FW start working on what we discussed yesterday, and Terram try to strengthen your armor. I will help when I can."

"Yes ma'am" we said in unison.

You saw Terram start working on his armor and you started swinging over the edge of the balcony, Henderson was right, this is MY power why should I fear it! You could feel a power welling up inside you, you put all your strength into one massive swing and a purple blazing inferno erupted from your sword off the edge of the balcony that extended all the way to the wall surrounding the castle, everyone went silent and just starred, before the Prince broke the silence,

"Well maybe you ARE worth something after all. We should spare sometime." Then Terram came over a put his arm over your shoulder

"That was awesome! How'd you do that!?"

"Well done NW" Henderson said with a smirk

Clavis came over "All right, everyone go back to what you were doing." everyone went back to where they were "I've never seen something like that! How did you do that?"

"Henderson gave me a bit of advice yesterday, that this was MY power and that I shouldn't fear, so I guess all I had access to was in that strike"

"So a combination of 2 elements from the same person? fascinating! Now that you can use it you need to work on control otherwise innocents might be caught in the crossfire."

"All right I'll try"
