After the lessons Aether came back to the dorm and decided to look at the roof
'Yep she's still there...'
"Do you want me to let you down now?"
Leah muttered almost without any life in her voice "ohhhh... I thought you would never come"
Aether got a good grip on the window and singlehandedly raised the bed and pulled it inside
"I will guess you wont want to spend the whole day on the roof anymore" Aether facepalmed
"No!!! Please!!! Don't!!!" Leah almost cried
"Wake up on time then" Aether sighed
"Well the lessons have finished so we can go eat or go train now"
"Eat please" Leah could finally feel relieved
"A'ight less go then"
'What's up with the sudden country boy dialect?' Stell chuckled
'Oi, shut up now'
The pair walked trough the halls
Many envious and lustful gazes were directed towards them.
"Just ignore them..."
"Im used to this by now you know..."
Aether then decided to change the topic "Are you going to try and evolve any of your elements any further?"
"Well I might try evolving my fire element into the scorch element"
"scorch element is basically fire, but less fire and more heat right?"
"Yeah"
"Then remembering how you tried to show off with your red-hot bladed spear I guess your speciality will be weapon making and temporary enhancement"
"Yeah"
"Have you thought about the conductivity of your metal element, and how you might burn yourself instead of the enemy?"
"What do you mean?"
"You know frying pans right?"
"uhum" Leah nodded
"They transfer heat trough them into whatever they are cooking"
"Don't tell me"
"Well yes, although you should have noticed yourself already. When you hold your weapon too long your hands should starting to heat severly"
"..."
"So you should try changing the structure of the metal or making a part of your spear ceramic or something similar so it wouldn't transfer heat to you as easily"
Leah's eyes were now sparkly and one could say they can see stars in her eyes.
"So you asked me about my element... what element do you want to evolve?"
"I am thinking about evolving my earth element into the nature element or my water element into the poison element"
Leah couldn't help but stare at him with confused eyes
"y tho?"
"Because they seem like the most customisable elements... Like imagine making plants into living mines or poison into acid"
"Hmm... Didn't know you were that bored that you chose elements bad for combat instead of something useful"
"People can do very stupid things when they are bored"
"And even though you are very special you really still are a human" Leah pondered at just how wise Linas was
Aether stayed silent
"By the way..." Leah started blushing furiously "I-i k-kinda like y-you..."
Aether was taken aback a little
"C-could we g-go out?"
Aether was thinking about all the pros and cons having a girlfriend would give him
"Well if it will benefit me then yes... But what benefits will having you as my girlfriend give me?"
Leah's was boldly thinking the same way when thinking about other boys as in most of her life guys would come up to her and try to propose but Aether clearly didn't care about her otherworldly beauty and insanelly rare power
"So that's the thing... I would rather get a girlfriend that isn't as powerful and beautiful as you but would give ME benefits, then a strong and good looking one that doesn't even know how to do the dishes"
"So if I learn how to be a good girlfriend you will accept me as one?"
"That's right."
The 'couple' then stepped into the cafeteria and went to order some food
Quite a lot of whispers beggun as everyone talked about 'The most beautiful and powerful couple of the accademy'
"By the way, about your 'boredom'... You could try becoming a god or something"
"Heh... Even though that's a feat that has not been achieved since 156010 that could be possible"
***
After the pair finished eating their food,
they went to the training hall
'Stel, how does one become a god?'
'Well first you would need to have complete mastery of something, absolutelly anything but Full mastery with a capital F. Just some lame mortal full mastery doesn't do it. It has to be breaking the mortal bounds'
"i guess I will try evolving my elements then"
Aether then sat with his legs criss-crossed and raised his hands, then
effortlessly made a ball of pure metal, then a ball of lava, then a ball of blue flames, then a ball of wood, poison, lightning, shadow, dark, light, acid, gold, sand and so on until he manifested all of the few thousand possible elements.
There were a LOT of balls in the sky and even though Linas himself didn't notice, basically the whole school was standing around him and his element balls, some of them recording, some of them gasping for air in awe, though leah was unconcious already and laying on the ground when the first three hundred balls were made
When Aether finished making the balls a golden light surrounded him and glowed mysteriously.
'Uhm. Stella, what is the meaning of this?' Aether was curious
'It means you have evolved all of the existing elements and are a step closer to becoming a god'
***
If somebody looked into one of the popular 'youtube' type websites this moment they would find a bunch of videos that went viral in a few seconds
The videos were of course of a boy casting balls of all the curently known elements
Aether of course got a nickname already 'The god reincarnation'
--Somewhere deep below the ground--
"So the boy is finally budding"
"THAT boy, not just any"
"You think he's going to become a god?"
"No shit, the question is how soon?"
"In a year?"
"No I think less"
Both of the creatures chuckled
--At the magic accademy--
*principal's office*
"So you will now be removed from the combat lessons, your teacher will only teach you spellmaking and you will go to magic item making lessons with another class since you are too strong for the good of your peers
If you fought them seriously not only would they be annahilated but you also wouldn't learn anything yourself"
*First spellmaking lesson*
"So as you know the animals turned into what they are now by the usage of spells, the spells didn't just appear so they had to be made. Today I will teach you all how to make spells and make them efficient"
The teacher was giving everyone spell property sheets according to their elements
Aether was of course given a few books instead of sheets
"Surprise me" The teacher said
