Chapter 5 - DEREK 1.1

My body aches so much that I am not in any mood to listen or to do anything, I suck at academics therefore I left school 2 years ago now I work in a factory in a basement so that the inspectors do not catch me , From birth I had bad luck sign over me I was born unlucky ,my mother died giving birth to me and my father a drunkard never cared for me I was a criminal who took his love away so he always kept beating and abusing me .

When one day I ran away and I went to another place and started to look for an orphanage with a bit of luck I got into one but the person was very abusive and not at all good but I had already been taken in . I was caught escaping two times he punished me by keeping me hungry for two weeks when an old maid took pity and me some soup to drink . And then I worked there for two years and then a factory owner asked me to work for him .

In the factory I worked ,ate and slept , this was my life now and I was going to work when I suddenly woke up near a river and then Udona took me to the court .when I saw the other children my age comming and one sitting I was jealous to see them happy and cool .

All this was very frustrating, I don't have anyone I care about in my world , no I would like to keep away from danger .That guy Alz... something said yes in an instant and the girl with long brown hair had followed the suite while like me the others kept quite ,maybe those two like this stuff and all .

But I don't. But Udona was kind to me and I kinda liked her smile and all she made me feel warm inside something I hadn't experienced before . But I am still confused about all this war , demons ,angels , wands and blah blah stuff .

I didn't even follow the paths how could you there were so many and I was so tired I bet no one knows the paths .

When we came in everyone went for bath and had a dinner it was amazing chicken ,salad ,scones ,milk ,fruits ,sandwiches, custard, and many more .I had my full and went my bed I got the right side window one as I cannot sleep without a good wind flow on my face .

We all didn't talk to eachother there was a heavy silence and awkwardness around us .Our clothes were already in and some new ones were also placed in cupboards with toothpaste ,toothbrush,shampoo and all other things .

I lay awake in bed for many hours shifting here and the others were same as me .

The next day we all woke up did all morning things and went to followup with the things whatever was said yesterday was again reminded and some others said yes and then I also said yes to the mission .

We were told that Udona and leanbow will teach the basic magic while Rider will teach us combact with Tyrel the commander in chief of royal army . And we were to train in magic and combact in morning 4 to 11 and learn history ,geography ,polity , ancient languages ,potions ,botany (herbology ) in evenings 12 to 6 and some 15 to 20 minutes breaks in between.

The physical activities were very exhausting we all were dripping in sweat and were huffing all around all but only Orion ,he was all ready for more it seems .Not a singel sweat and no short breaths either he was quite hunky too good muscles and legs and perfect chest too .

He must one of those be those health nerd types who keep their body like a treasure some for modeling, some for chicks ,some for acting ,and for show off, attention and such .

He was not tired even after all the exercises , Though he ate all types of food guess he is not a dieting type .All others like me were looking at him but directly but in a hidden manner .cowards I was looking straight at him he noticed too but said nothing probably happy due to all the attention he was getting.

Then he vanished after the breakfast, we all were going around awkward looking here and there no topic between us to talk .
