Two days passed.
Birds were chimping on the outside, seeking their mate for its lifespan companion.
The wind blew from the west to the north, with the warm temperature dwelled on it, winding towards the opened window where the lady sat cross-legged above a man's lap as he was meditating with his leg crossed.
"Focus your mind on the shape you want to make."
He was breathing. However, he was swimming around the space that he had in his subconscious.
He observed the octagon-shaped runic substance that radiated in front of him in a bright pink color with many ancient symbols that he had seemed not to understand.
'Molding our magic?' He wondered while he observed that magic words, which seemingly being too confusing for him to read.
However, he did not give up on that.
'I remember that in the southern tribe. Those people could break the rune code easily with a strong sense of cultivation. I'm not into cultivation thing, but that was indeed something that seemed to make sense since it's proven.'
Thus, he tried to remember the man who had told him about the rune magic.
'I remember that the sage from the south who taught me Dao Cultivation had said to me that rune magic is straightforward to break if the one who had learned the magic of it had the destined to use that magic, hmm...'
He placed his right thumb to his chin as a sign of thinking, wondering that he could be able to do some workaround to break the seal of Rune Magic that spun round the clock in front of him.
Knock!! Knock!!
Chris was surprised when he heard the door-knocking voice. But, Professor Hora requested to him,
"Concentrate."
He observed on the complex runic code that had the octagon shape in front of him at his subconscious space.
'Amun - Hif - Kontol - Jaka?' Chris whispered in his mind as he observed the octagon-shaped magic.
"No profanity, please, Chris." Professor Hora scolded onto him over something that he was not sure what he had to say. But, he prefers to apologize as he said,
"Sorry..."
'Ah! Damn it! I forgot that `Kontol` is profanity in a southern accent! And I forgot that Lein was growing up in southern together with me! I had to be careful next time.' He whispered to himself while observing that.
He was trying his way to find out how he can read it.
As his mind was working like a search engine over the runic image that he had read. He mentioned,
"Kara - Gan - Kora - Ka?" He spoke it out loud, which led Professor Hora to yell, "It's not Rune Magic at all, you dumb!"
"Never mind, tell me what had you found about the runic icon?"
'Runic Icon... The written language of Runic Code. Hmm, I remember that I had seen the same thing in the ancient empire before when I was about to get ascribed as one of the seven Ancient Magus.' Chris whispered on his mind when he was observing the visible Runic Imagic that flashed around the octagon-shaped runic substance.
"It's Bird. Yes, without a doubt. It's a standing bird that I had seen for the first time."
"Amun!" Professor Hora replied to him briefly. Thus, he continued to focus on the octagon-shaped sphere.
He observed the sphere as if that there will be something glowing that he could see. Then, he had found out the new runic image that led him to reply,
"It was Dragon-Shaped. Not as a humanoid dragon like me, nor a dragon that we can see in our world, Probably the dragon that only exists in eastern which had the snake body."
"IF!" She answered him abruptly as she had heard those. Thus, Chris continued to observe if he had found something else again.
He kept looking in the whim of the sphere. But, he heard something,
"If you could not be able to find the runic icon in thirty minutes. Then that's it. It means that you had found your special form on it. Now, next."
He tried to look something closer to the sphere when he heard the voice that seems unusual when he observed that for the first time.
He could hear the scream that led him to whispers,
'Shadow magic crest. It was strongest but, at the same time, nastiest. I hope that I don't need to learn this thing.'
He was not sure if it was the magical crest that he had seen before. So, he moved his face closer to the sphere. And, a nasty voice heard by the dragon caused him to looked at it unamusingly.
"It was a ghost. How do you think, Lein?"
"Dokhn." She replied briefly.
Thus, the dragon was trying to find something else that he can use as magic. But unfortunately that there was no more rune shape that he could find.
"You can stop it now if you are not able to find something that..."
"I know that you wanted to take advantage of the lecturer who shared the same age with me!"
It appeared to be the man's brown arm had been grip in an extreme power by the dragon as the man's brown hands were about to reach the lady's skirt.
"None your business!" The nasty-looking man with his long black hair seen commented,
"So what? Violating a lady who was doing the joint cultivation with her childhood friend? You do have a ball for that indeed."
That man glanced at him with his blue-colored iris. Thus, he threatened him.
"You ought to be able to withstand at least one knife stab from me, fucker!"
He removed his arm by force after he threatened Chris. He left shortly after that. Leaving both of them there with the door closed forcibly.
"Thank you for saving me... Chris..." She hugged Chris in fear that soon led him to see her skirt unkempt clearly as a sign that it had been removed by force before.
Knowing that she was afraid after the molest happened. Chris pulled his silver blanket, covering her until her head remained seen here. Thus, he moved out of his bed slightly until he had enough space for it. But the lady's gesture had shown that,
"Don't go..."
"I want to practice it. I know that person. I will beat him completely into pulp to avenge you!"
She gulped her throat when Chris had stated so. In her mind, she reminisced herself over how brutal he would be if someone had angered him.
"Please... Don't kill anyone, Chris."
"Killing him means letting him easy, Lein. Now, Let me show you this!"
"Amun!"
He clenched his left fist and move it to the front with the palm that gripped on the top as soon as he commanded,
'I only know the theory about this magic. But for the practical, I had to learn it!' He whispered in his mind as he remembered the rune magic movement, just for himself, who wasn't recognizing the runic icon since in the first place, which caused him to had confusion earlier.
He soon continued with his right fist clenched in the same way as he did before at the right hand, shouted,
"If!"
Thus, he continued with moving his hands until his palms were meet in a clenched state.
The shadow form was built by Chris as soon as he had done the third rune code. It surprised Professor Hora, who jump into the excitement as she yelled while her skirt was fallen off.
"Yes! My hypothesis is on track!"
At the same time, Chris whistled to close the door. He complained,
"Please have some bit mannerism, can you? Remember that the asshole had almost violated you earlier!"
"If it's with you. Then even if naked, I'm fine with it." She replied to him gleefully as she observed his arms that had the shadow aura engulfing on them. Thus, he continued with opening the fist.
With his fist opened, the sword-shaped shadow magic formed and placed in his backhand. Thus, he commanded,
[Shadow Blade!]
The flame of the shadow magic formed like a sword blade had become much denser. Slowly but sure, It changed from a spell-only sword into a denser sword that closes to the actual sword.
"With this, you can go with the magical exam tomorrow to assess where do you suitable at!" Hora commented as she had seen those with a happy expression drawn on her face.
"Speaking in which, are you ok? Did they violated you to the deep?" Chris asked her while canceling the magic by swinging the blade that stuck on his hands repeatedly.
"I'm fine, it just only my skirt that torn up. I can buy it anytime if I want."
"How about I'm calling Elea to borrow her skirt from you first? I think you guys had shared the same body specification, which I think. It should fit."
She nod her head which led Chris to say,
"Stay in my room. I will call her over."
