Chapter 16 - Runes and whatnot [1]

After Garry's reckless conduct in unwinding his strings, his care was heavily guarded by the eye of Lilla. Her surveillance took was extended till he enters the second week of his stay in the elven forest. This little man was now given the opportunity of meeting his esteemed master and finally set foot in his studies

"Well well well, it's nice to see you, my only disciple, are you ready?" Garry remained close to the door and only nods to questions from his master

"Lacerus!" Godrick waved his staff and eventually his spell came crashing on his disciple's spot

"Galean,"

His disciple reacted by his uttering a spell where it blew his body to the top where he remain dangling. He was wise to avoid the spell of his master as soon as he witnessed his previous spot lacerated. Garry spared no thought and use his newly acquired strength and spawn a root in pulling the self down below his master

Godrick pointed his staff and blew away the shelf from ever covering his view. "Impulsio! Very good. You're using your magic and your surroundings to your advantage. Enough with your adaptability, let's test your speed, Incisioul,"

Godricks prompted an attack as dozens of daggers were conjured at his back leaving anyone to assume Garry's demise

"Acceleros Trannzo!" His body thrived when it felt so feather weighted and his acceleration grew ever so unimaginable

He twists and turns for daggers would come tailing his back, he increased his pace until he gained enough space. "Flintear!"

The tip of his wand came sparking where it resulted in a fiery ball and he shifts it to a blade covering both his hand and wand. "I've yet to forget my fencing techniques, now come at me, Accurus,"

With a fiery blade in his hand and a precise enchantment through his eye, Garry manages to precisely cut Godricks attacks. With one step forward with every swing, the gap between these two seemingly shortens as the boy pushes through. The daggers melted in his way and he aimed to end by gathering the flames and discharging a raging spear

"Flintear, Javelin toss!" The young Arcanist was blown away by the sheer force of his attack

"Cryo genum," Godrick corresponds by firing a bolt of ice as these opposite elements burst he strides hasten and appears in Garry's back

The green turtle's palm lit and sparks till a ball of lightning formed and released on the back of his only disciple. "Leagmma Volous!"

"Phaezul,"

What may have been an excruciating venture became a typical bout with this pair of master and disciple. Garry eludes himself through an enchantment where it monetarily made his body untouchable. His flesh, hair, skin, bones, and even his organs it's quite possible that his entirety was untwined in a molecular scale. In his current state the ball of lightning phases through his body, he's like air but the difference was that he's visible and alive

"Acceleros Trannzo!" He quickly moved from his disadvantageous spot and kicks the staff wielded by his master and pointed his wand

'Incredible! Phaezul is a nonattribute advance spell and yet he manages to pull it off in one go? Godfrey did say something that his fight with Umbler was unreal but this eye of his... does it allow him to adapt to his environment? If so does this eye also have been active long before, but never had its true awakening, my nephew did say he was smart. But this is unreal! I can't believe a child like this truly exists, there's no denying that radiating flicker in his eyes,'

"Hey master, can you hear me?" Godrick snapped out of his delusion once he'd heard the voice of his disciple's irritating tone

"Yes! What is it?"

"Did I pass? I heard from Godfrey you're in a realm where you can easily use magic without a wand or a staff. Seeing as we did fight jn that kind of rule I pass right? You're going to teach me some ancient runes like you promised, you know I won't take no for an answer," His disciple's enthusiastic display unknowingly made his stone-hard face retract and smile in delight

"Good job, you've finally earned yourself the privilege to hear my teachings. But first, we need to clean our study room, it's too burnt and broken. Don't worry it'll be as easy as– Why are you holding a broom?" His disciple paused as his master stared deeply into his eyes hinting him for an explanation

"Are these brooms not for sweeping? Oh wait, is this the flying one? I can never tell which is which,"

"No, that's a sweeping broom. But still, I can't believe you, a disciple of mine dirtying his hands. I don't discriminate but remember, you're no longer a Grimmel, my child. You are a Grim, Arcanist, and what they call devils in your land. As racism goes you need to stick with the norms, get your wand, and now repeat after me, Reinstatus!"

Their magic seeped from their body and where they point the cracks, burns, and even the shelves moved in their favor. Everything they touched was put back to their rightful place and even the broken was restored without a hint of its damage. Splinter floating and ashes reverted to wood, everything they touched was restored to their original

"Brilliant! This spell is revolutionary, how is it that it's never been written in the books inside the library? A spell like this could be useful–"

"And yet deadly in the wrong hands," Godrick blatantly replies and sees the horror in the disciple's eyes in sheer thought of what could have arisen

"Just kidding!"

"What?" Garry stood there dismayed at his sudden response along with a slight chuckle which further confuses the boy

"This spell only works on objects. It doesn't matter how strong you are it wouldn't work on people. Sit down, boy. The two of us will have a very long chatter, don't worry, I know your limits. But first, why don't you try scanning your attributes?" Godrick pulled the cloth from his desk and reveals a crystal ball in the middle

"M-my a-attribute?"

Garry trembled in fear but Godrick assures his little disciple by laughter alone. "Worry not boy, you don't require to stiffen yourself, the process is nowhere painful. It truly pains me to say this but scanning is necessary for your advancement. We need to see effective, mediocre, and not-so-compatible forms of magic, let's see your elemental compatibility,"
