Chapter 9 - The shape shifter

Prince Theodosius hurried his way to the capital. Anastasia and Mielle are being persuaded by professor Hayden to let her be a summoner. Anastasia wants to survive, she can't let herself be a guinea pig. What if the summoning failed? She will die again.

It

Meanwhile, Anastasius has started his studies at the academy.

"The Count's eldest daughter is a trouble maker, isn't she?"

"Indeed! she'll be joining the alchemist class soon, I'm afraid that she will bring it to ruins."

"Eh? Don't worry, when that happens, I'm already at the next building that time so I won't see her that much."

Seraphim made a scene at the office, she wants to have the green potion that only the students of the academy can use.

She plans to make a cologne that when a person smelled it, they will be paralyzed. She managed to steal Anastasia's brush, with some of her into it.

"You did well today, Young Lord."

The magician commanded him. He outstands everyone, even his seniors are shocked that he can use medium-level magic and can balance mana perfectly.

"But you have to focus, your attacks are not powerful but you did well for balancing the mana."

"I will keep that in mind."

Anastasius went back to his room and practiced his magic more. He wants to go back so that his family and his little sister will be proud of him.

"Anastasius! want to spar with me?" Cassian, his close friend at the academy entered. He is the third son of Baron Yietz.

"Hey, Cassian. I'm currently busy."

"But I'm bored! I want to go out."

"Then go. Just don't bother me, okay?"

"Aha! I have an idea. Would you mind helping me out?"

"No, that's why go away, we'll spar later."

Cassian has medium-length hair silver-blonde with fringes long enough to pass his eyebrows. It is shorter beneath his ears and longer up top and has been styled in slight variations. His eyes are crystal blue and he is the only one in the Yietz family to have crystal blue eyes.

"You told me about your cute little sister and she is quite famous. Is she a gift from God? some say that she's a descendant of a goddess."

"No, because my sister is the goddess herself."

"Can I have her?"

"NO!"

"Tell me about her."

Cassian keeps nagging his friend, who only practices day and night. He is quite talented as a junior.

"I said I don't want to. You can ask me anything but not my sister."

"Oh.."

He transferred to a wolf and attacked Anastasius. He dodged and throws a fireball. Cassian jumped through the balcony and the fire wizard followed him.

"What the hell is your problem?!"

Anastasius is furious, she dislikes the idea that someone is taking an interest in her sister.

"Cassian, you jerk!"

The students who are practicing caught their attention. Cassian, in his wolf form, ns at a ferocious speed and delivers many powerful beast-like attacks. Unluckily, Anastasius used a fire barrier to protect himself.

"Murus ignis!"

Anastasius generates a pillar of spiraling flames around him. The fire arises from Anastasius' feet to a certain height, which reduces the possibility of him being attacked from above.

Everyone that was watching forgot to stop them. They are in awe of the battle between the two.

Anastasius focused his strength and made a powerful attack towards Cassian, who is the strongest shapeshifters who recently enrolled in the class. He knew he doesn't need to hold back because Cassian is much stronger than him. Besides, whenever they spar, they always use their full power.

"Draconum squamis!" A dragon in a fire form went towards Cassian. The whole quadrangle is in a mess and everyone is silently watching their fight.

Cassian, who is just staring at the dragon smirked and awaits to be burned.

"Cassian!" Anastasius shouted when he found out that his friend has no intention to dodge it. He tried to cancel the spell but it's too late! He recently practices the dragon but it's still not yet in his control.

After the spell was completed, there are no signs of Cassian. The students that are watching them are shocked and some of thee

"Ha! is that your way, jerk?" Anastasius whispered.

Cassian used a teleportation stone that he stole from the spatial mages. Anastasius keeps bragging about his sister which made Cassian curious about her. A rumor about Anastasia is circling the kingdom. She's pretty famous.

Some of them believe that she is not clever like the rumors. Who would believe that a six-year-old kid can solve mathematical equations and has the ability that adults have?

By using the teleportation stone, Cassian finds himself in a room, filled with teddy bears and lavish clothes that are scattered on the floor.

He heard a voice outside, he transformed into a small blonde white wolf and awaits the person that is entering the door.

"Oh my.. what happened to my room?!" Anastasia yelled when she finds her room in a mess. Her maid, Mary, followed her.

"Maybe it's this wolf's fault." Mary pointed at Cassian, who is under the disguise of a wolf.

Anastasia's eye shined and hugged the wolf. Cassian's eyes widened, this is the first time a girl hugged him.

She held his face and their foreheads touched. Cassian froze, unable to move. He doesn't know what to do.

"You have pretty crystal blue eyes, wolfy.." She said while hugging the wolf. Anastasia went to the balcony while carrying the wolf Cassian.

The gentle breeze surrounds them. Cassian is still shocking, Anastasia even kisses his forehead.

"Mary! tell mother that I'm adopting this wolf."

Cassian's eyes widened in disbelief, he can't stay there for long! He still needs to go back to the academy.

"You are so cute! do you have a name?" She hugged him tightly, he wants to transform into his human form but he can't.

"Oh my god! you're wounded!" Anastasia noticed the burnt mark on his paw and leg.

'Yeah, and it's your brother who did it.'

Anastasia put her palm at the burnt mark and a golden light emerged. Cassian felt warm but nothing heals. She took her palm out and he noticed that she looks sad.

"Uhm. I'm sorry, little wolfy. I can't heal you, but don't worry! I will be a great healer and be sure to heal everyone." Anastasia said cheerfully.

Cassian jumped and rubbed his soft fur face at Anastasia's face. He felt pity for her, her brother's story about her is different.

Suddenly, tears fell from her face. She felt lonely. Alone. Even though her parents from the past treated her differently, she still missed them.

'Why is she crying? Anastasius told me that her sister is a bright and cheery person. She also has healing magic under her control since the crown prince and she issue.'

"Where did you come from anyways? are you lost?"

In his wolf form, Cassian can talk. But if he does, will Anastasia be afraid?

But he chose not to. Maybe another day. He plans to ditch her and go back to the academy.

"Young miss, professor Hayden is here to see you," Mary said.

Anastasia quickly wiped her tears and walked towards the door.

"Greetings to Lady Anastasia." The green-haired professor bowed together with the man in a cloak.

"What brought you here, again, professor?"

"This is Giovanni, he is one of the outstanding images that Prince Theodosius commended. He will be the one to teach you."

Giovanni kneeled in front of her and kisses her hand that is wearing a glove. Cassian jump abilities the mage.

"W-wolfy!" Anastasia yelled and carried the little wolf away from Giovanni.

"D-don't worry, young miss. I'm fine."

She helped him stand and Cassian frowned. He didn't like the mage getting sweet to Anastasia.

'Well, it's not like I did it on purpose, I just want to play, that's all!' Cassian's thoughts while being carried by Mary.

"Giovanni is an expert when it comes to ancient magic." Professor Hayden said, he also helped Giovanni.

"I already declined you a hundred times, professor. I'm not interested."

"If you're thinking about dying, then the Prince himself told me to pass you this message."

Anastasia's brow narrowed, "What?"

"He shall guide you and when something goes wrong, he will use all of his healing magic to help you. Not a bad offer, isn't it?"

Cassian's stared at Anastasia, he noticed that her face changed.

"I.. will think about it."
