It took one week for the first Elementalist to finally learn fire manipulation while being instructed by Billy. During that week, they thought that it would never happen and kept their eyes of skepticism at him, but once they first learned, they threw away all that and began to practice in earnest. They were a simple bunch…
Considering that Sarah only spent half an hour teaching him Zen, it wasn't fair that Billy was using that much time for them. Still, heended up teaching them for two weeks, and thanks to that, nine other elementalists learned Fire Manipulation. They looked ecstatic… because they felt like they had become complete magicians. Now, the others just had to keep trying and practicing what Billy told them.
During those two weeks, Billy didn't see anyone on the other side of the river. It was quite disappointing since he was looking forward to it and because his friends said that they had appeared three times during the weeks he was away.
