Aaron wasn't suspended since his father's connections saved his ass. However he was assigned a personal tutor to practice, although his element was different from Zaiden. But since they both were paired up, their upcoming meet up was inevitable.
On the other hand kingdom Solarian was occupied in finding the traitor. The faculty was busy in gathering the clues about him, and the kingdom Xandaya was providing the help needed.
Both of the kingdoms were required to help each other since the traitor was sought to hold the rarest element. The current imposter king of Xandaya could already sense Zaiden' element. That was the only clue he had before Valos successfully paved way for his escape.
Even though the kingdom was weakest, Xandaya and Solarian were allies considering they belonged to vampire realm. But the faculty was having trouble in finding any such person under their roof. Zaiden had kept his facade and only master Michal was aware of his element.
Curtis stood by his side and Zaiden was discharged soon after two days. He went straight to his room and had a bath. During his recovery Zaiden tried to break the seal in his subconscious brain where he trapped the demon.
As expected he wasn't capable of doing it for now, and the demon was caged until Zaiden learned how to master his mental sphere. He had no other option than to use Curtis for his search purpose now. The demon had the hidden knowledge and was aware of the vampiric traits. Whereas Curtis was blank like him, unless he could lay his hands over any source of information.
Zaiden didn't want to waste any more time wondering over the loss and it's recovery. He was promised another gem soon but till then he wanted to invest his time into something productive. Hence he headed towards master Michal' office, on his way Zaiden experienced heated stares at him.
'It seems now I have earned a permanent reputation. I just hope people won't bother me with stuff.'
His standoffish nature surfaced and Zaiden walked straight to the arcade. Undoubtedly he didn't have time to waste in petty things, when Zaiden had a mission to complete. His father, Vasil might be waiting for his comeback, Zaiden had to pace up to find the cure.
He knocked at the door and upon hearing the permit Zaiden headed inside the room. The whole building of the academy was built modestly and was run with various technology. He didn't feel any different from human realm, although kingdom Xandaya was far behind in terms of civilization.
"As you instructed, here I am."
Zaiden omitted the respectful addressing unintentionally. He wasn't used to obey someone else, hence his insolent act irked master Michal. But the old man needed his element, so as Zaiden required his teachings. Both had to bear and help each other to achieve their goals!
"Yes, I hope you are feeling good, since your training demands a healthy body. Although I have no clue how your current body condition managed to cast those powerful spells."
His concerns were valid and the assumption was accurate. No one with a physical condition like Zaiden was capable of enduring such pressure. Now that the demon was caged in his subconsciousness rather than his soul, Zaiden had to work on his body.
"What should I do first?"
Master Michal couldn't help but admire his determination to learn. Zaiden's mind was clouded with the thirst of power, and he was willing to do anything for it.
The old man smiled upon getting a strong willed disciple. He wanted to teach the forbidden spells and martial arts. But the faculty hadn't known his O positive element, hence master Michal never passed in his knowledge to keep his facade.
"We will begin in an hour. Meditate in the front ground till then and clear your mind."
He instructed him and began to order his shuffled files on the table. Zaiden wanted to question and oppose his speech but the fact that the grumpy old man was his only option, forced him to obey silently and unwillingly.
