After a few hours of meditation and training his bloodline Fae opened his eyes and stood up. He knew sitting for hours wasn't fun but nobody told him it could be this boring. 'How do you people do it?' Fae thought to himself imagining all the powerful people who must have spent years sitting and training.
Fae decided to head to bed and prepare himself for the second day of school.
***
Near the academy a man was making big plans for Fae. "You understand what you need to do right?" Mr. Black's minion, Sark, was saying to a boy who was staring up at him with terror. "Y- Yes!" The boy said obediently. A wide smile appeared across Sark's face as he handed the kid glass jar with a bug crawling inside of it. "Now go!" Sark said pushing the kid and sending him off. He looked at the kid running away towards the academy in a hurry. "This idiot's definitely going to fail." Sark thought as he shook his head. "But this is just the first step, no matter what the boy will fall."
Sark suddenly crouched down low flexing the muscles in his leg until *BOOM* with a giant bag noise he shot up into the sky.

Fae woke up with a smile. He felt he was finally feeling some semblance of normal as he finally had a routine to fall into. He woke up got ready and began to walk out towards his classes. The sun beamed down on Fae, he didn't enjoy the heat but after remembering the inside of Xander's room Fae gladly opened his arms tp the suns rays. After a few more minutes of walking Fae finally walked into his class. "On time today I see." The teacher said as Fae walked over and took his seat next to Ling Xao. "Today is the first day of practical lessons!" The teacher said enthusiastically as she gave all the kids a smile, though it seemed unbearably forced. She continued on. "I'll be sending you to the field where you'll have your first practical lesson." The teacher than sat down lazily as she waved her hand in a sweeping motion across the class. 'Well that was anti-climatic' Fae thought to himself as nothing happened, until suddenly Fae could feel his body folding in on itself and unfolding in a new spot. He looked around and noticed he was on a grassy field.
The students around him either had an unimpressed look across their face or seemed as if they'd just seen the best thing ever. Fae had another look on his face though, after witnessing how useful that power could be, all Fae felt was hunger. The same feeling he had when he first saw Julia's power. A primal urge, an urge to devour.
"Welcome." Fae and the rest of the classes attention was immediately drawn to the man who just spoke. He was an elderly man easily looking older than 70, but because he was a Mythic his true age may be much, much older. "I'll be your practical lessons teacher for the year. My name is Mr. Gami." Mr. Gami seemed rather kind as the students couldn't help but smile at him and begin to think of him as some type of grandpa, but those students minds quickly changed as Mr. Gami released some of his pressure on them.
"I search for excellence in all my students." Mr. Gami said as he began to walk around looking down at all the struggling students. He stood tall and firm a stark contrast from his previous weak and frail demeanor. "Your first lesson, never judge a book by its cover. In a real fight that'll be your death."
Immediately everyone's opinion on Mr. Gami quickly changed. They realized the man standing in front of them was truly a warrior.
"For your first day in class I just want to get used to you all, your powers, and your fighting ability. For that I want all of you to pair up with someone and fight."
Fae began to look around trying to find Ling Xao to pair up with him when suddenly another student ran towards Fae asking him to fight. The student was short and round. He seemed to be nervous as his hand was shaking while pointing at Fae. 'That's weird.' Fae thought to himself, why did this student seem so ready to challenge him if he wasn't confident in beating him?
Fae decided to chalk it up too this guy just being a nervous person and accepted the challenge. "Sure we can pair up. My name's Effy." Fae said while putting his hand out. The student took Fae's hand and replied. "My name's Edward."
Mr. Gami led every student to different places on the field and than walked over to the center and sat closing his eyes. "I'm watching all the fights at once don't worry." Mr. Gami said as he knew all the students were curious as to what he was doing. He began to count down from three, and as he hit one the field became overwhelmed with noise as fights began to take place all over it.
Fae ran at Edward as fast as he could crossing a distance of 50 feet in less than a second as he slammed his fist into Edward's stomach. Edward was sent flying backwards as blood shot out of his mouth like a rocket. Fae realized Edward wasn't as strong as him and began to feel bad. The last person Fae had fought was Joseph, and he had to spend a lot of time around the top ten students so he slowly forgot that not everyone would match up to him well in strength.
He dashed over to Edward and reached out his hand to help lift him up. Edward looked at Fae's hand with a smile and suddenly pulled a glass jar out of the air and slammed it into Fae's hand. Fae was caught off guard and had no time to react as a worm leaped out of the broken jar and dug into Fae's arm. "AHHHHHH!" Fae fell to the ground screaming in pain as the worm began to crawl through his body wreaking havoc everywhere it went.
Mr. Gami immediately appeared in front of Edward and grabbed his hand. "What did you do!" He screamed at Edward, but he was only met with a scared expression as Edward began to realize what he'd just done.
Fae could feel the worm moving through Fae's body and heading towards his brain, he could barely manage a thought as he was overwhelmed with pain but he managed to power through it and use the only thing he could think of. Fae looked towards where the bulge in his skin that was the worm was and used a skill he hadn't thought of in awhile. {Analyze}
{Human Rank 9 Pyscho Worm}
{A worm with the ability to climb into someone's mind and use it's psychic power to take complete control of them.}
Fae's panic increased as he read the worm's description. He tried to slap down on the worm under his skin but it would simply evade any attacks and keep moving. The worm made its way up Fae's neck and was finally starting to reach Fae's brain. Suddenly something called to Fae, a feeling he was slowly getting used too, a calling, an urge. Fae suddenly took a stand and made a plan.... 'System will this work?' Fae asked with conviction. {Yes.} The answer was short and simple but it was all Fae needed. 'You think you can enter my mind and take over? You think after everything I went through that's all it'd take to bring me down? Let me show you who I am. Let me show you what it feels like to be devoured.' Fae suddenly forced all the bloodline energy in his body to force through his veins and shoot into his brain. This was a risky move for anyone as a single mistake would end in Fae destroying his own brain.
The worm was met with the constant assault of Fae's bloodline energy as it expanded and attacked it. Suddenly the energy stopped and began to entrap the worm. Slowly it shrunk destroying the worm, but before it could take it out completely Fae had one more thing he needed to do.
'This is your punishment!' "DEVOUR"
