Darius touches his watch screen and drags it up in the air. The screen is separated into two and two women appear. The first one is the lunch lady of the Blue dorm and the second one is the nurse. All the teachers present are shocked when seeing the lunch lady.
- Principal! Isn't she the Fire sorceress? The fire magic user that crafted seven mana hearts but refuses the King's Sword title. says Hugh
- That's her. answer Darius
- Why is she in the Academy? And why is she allowed in this meeting, from what I remember she remains unaffiliated. She doesn't belong to any kingdom! says Andre
- It's because she is looking for a disciple. says Darius
- The Fire sorceress is looking for a disciple!? asks Durmon
- Yes, I am. she answers
- But why here? asks Andre
- This is the only place I haven't visited. she answers
- You already searched for a disciple in the three other kingdoms? asks Hugh
- Yes and unfortunately I haven't found anyone worthy. I really didn't want to come here. she says while looking at Darius
Darius sighs
- Amelia, get to the point. What do you think about student Noah Arcadios? says Darius with a severe tone and expression
- He has a tremendous amount of talent. It's something that I have never seen before. Along with that immense talent, he also has an incredible amount of mental strength. If you keep him in the Academy maybe he will be the first person to enter the fourth and fifth floor of the library. The floors that nobody has been able to enter.
- What!? says Andre, Durmon, and Hugh
- If my memory is correct even the one at the top of this school hierarchy, the Head Master is unable to enter the fifth floor. she says while smirking
- Amelia, are you trying to pick a fight? says, Darius with a frowning face
- I heard you finally crafted your sixth mana heart, did crafting it make you inflate your arrogance? So much that you would challenge someone that crafted her seventh mana heart? asks Amelia with a smug expression and tone
- Watch your mouth, Fire Sorceress! You are talking to one of Fayrak kingdom King's Sword and the Principal of Fayrak Academy! says Hugh with an extremely displeased face.
- So, what? I don't care about his titles or his standing in society. she says
- ENOUGH! says, Darius. Let's put our issues to the side and tell me honestly, Amelia. Is Noah Arcadios truly a dangerous element for people within the Academy?
They both stare at each other for a second then she sighs
- It depends. Honestly, I don't know much about his condition but I have met others like him.
- Others like him? Can you elaborate?
- I think that he has a spit personality. I am not a doctor nor do I have any experience in the medical field so ask your nurse. says Amelia
- What do you think, Nurse Lexie?
Lexie is the academy's nurse. She is a magician with four mana hearts and she is a healer. Healers are magicians that possess an affinity with the sub-light element, Healing. Therefore granting them the ability to use healing magic. Lexie is a graduate of the academy, she actually graduated a year ago but due to her remarkable ability she was hired as the Academy nurse at the age of 21 with long light blue hair and eyes, she also wears glasses.
- I think it is probably...No, it's definitely what might be the problem with student Noah.
- What makes you think that? asks Andre
- I think everybody present in the room, except for miss Amelia, knows about student Noah's past.
All of the teachers nods
- Student Noah might have created a split personality in order to cope with the pain that he was suffering and it is highly possible that student Noah created this alternate personality at a young age which would make him unable to know or remember that he has another personality.
- Doesn't that still makes him dangerous? asks Andre
- Not really. There have been rumors going around that the three brothers are actually on good terms recently. The good company from his brothers is also helping him deal with his issues from the past thus killing the other personality that student Noah created.
- WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH HIS RECENT EMISSIONS OF BLOODTHIRST AND HIS RECENT ACTS OF VIOLENCE? asks Andre while getting up from his seat
- ANDRE! Sit down and calm down. says Darius
- BUT... PRINCIPAL!
- Immediately. says, Darius in a glacial tone
Andre sits down
- You can finish, Lexie
- As I said the second personality of student Noah was created in order to deal with his pain. As he grew the other personality also grew and instead of only absorbing pain it probably started absorbing every negative emotion student Noah feels. This brings us to his recent acts, I think that each time student Noah feels a negative emotion his second personality slips out and takes control but student Noah is not even aware of what happens since normally, from what I heard, student Noah is usually very calm and mature for his age.
- How do we deal with that other personality of his? asks Durmon
- We don't. she says. From my point of view, the other personality has noticed that Noah is starting to emotionally grow which also means that soon he will not need that other personality and that will make it vanish. The recent outburst of violence and bloodthirst is all to make him isolated and create a new dependence on that other personality.
- So as long as he is surrounded by people, that personality will slowly disappear? asks Hugh
- Yes. answer Lexie
- Do you have anything left to say, Andre? asks Darius.
- No, principal. Andre says with a displeased face.
- Then this meeting his adjourned! Noah Arcadios will remain in the Fayrak Academy. declare Darius
The teacher exits the room, Darius closes his watch windows and also leaves
[With Andre returning to the Blue dorm]
Andre takes out his phone and calls someone. The person picks up
- How did it go?
- It failed.
- Didn't you tell me that this plan was foolproof, that it was perfect?
- I am deeply sorry. I didn't expect that there actually was a reason for his recent actions. says Andre
- This is gonna be your last chance. Find a way to get Noah Arcadios expelled from the Academy. As long as he is there, we can't lay a hand on him. says the person on the phone with Andre
- Yes, brother.
[In the first year training grounds]
- Who do you think will win? asks Juliana
- Hmmm... If I am completely honest. I have no idea who will win.
- Shouldn't you have more confidence in your disciple? Everyone noticed that Gancelot has gotten stronger ever since you took him as your disciple. says Juliana
- Is that so? All I did is make him work on his stamina, taught him some close-quarter combat, and teach him a spell.
Juliana looks at him with an interrogative facial expression
{Juliana}
" Is this guy alright? He must be mentally deranged. Those three things he mentioned are a lot."
- There is no point in talking with you since you have absolutely no common sense. she says with a sigh
- What???
- Are you two ready? she asks
- Yes! answer Gancelot
- I am also ready. says Abel
- 1...2...3...Go
The first one to make a move is Abel. He approaches Gancelot and as soon as he is close enough he attempts a Mana Bullet.
- Mana Bull-
But while he was trying to cast his Mana Bullet spell, Gancelot went down and kicked one of his feet resulting in Abel losing his balance. When he lost his balance Gancelot immediately took the chance that was presented to him and punched him in the stomach. The punch was hard and because of that Abel grabbed his stomach and took a few steps back to create some distance and catches his breath, however, he failed. Because as soon as some distance was created Gancelot stretched out his hand and cast a spell.
- Wind Magic! Wind Shot!
A small sphere of wind forms in his hand and Gancelot shoots it at Abel. Abel counters it by using his Mana Bullet spell.
- Mana Bullet! Detonate Version!
He shoots the mana spell but it's slow, slower than the power version, however after a few seconds, while Gancelot Wind Shot was approaching, the bullet explode taking Gancelot's spell with it.
{Noah}
" He already created a new version of the Mana Bullet spell. As expected of the Mana Tuner."
Due to the bullet explosion, a large amount of dust was lifted. Gancelot sends mana to his eyes in order to activate his Mana Pupil. When his Pupils are activated he can clearly see through the smoke. He locates Abel and uses his spell once more.
- Wind Magic! Wind Shot!
The sphere of wind goes straight toward and hits his target. When the dust clears up the one standing is Gancelot and Abel is on the ground. However, the fight is not over, since Abel refuses to go down and gets up.
{Gancelot}
" This guy is strong. And he still has that Mana Beam spell he used against master."
{Abel}
" This is incredible. He only has been training under Noah for a few days but he already progressed by this much. Noah Arcadios... No matter what, I need to win this fight!"
[In the bench area]
- This is incredible! I knew that Gancelot became stronger but not by that much!
She looks at Noah.
- How did you do it? she asks
- I already told you.
- That's not what I mean.
- Then what are you talking about
- You even made him more intelligent! That's what I am talking about!
- Huh?
- Normally, that idiot would have wasted his mana by using his Wind Shot spell on the ground to blow away the dust but this time he used his Mana Pupils in order to locate his opponent and even took advantage of the dust since his enemy couldn't see him.
- All I did was teach him the right way to fight using his Mana Pupils.
- Wait! You knew he had Mana Pupils? asks Juliana
- Of course, I knew. What do you take me for?
- But how did you teach him? Gancelot wasn't able to control his Mana Pupils. They sometimes activated and sometimes they didn't.
- That's not true. This guy knows how to control his pupils. He just didn't know how much mana did he need to send to his pupils to activate his Mana Pupils.
- How did you know?
- I didn't we went by trial and error.
- Huuuh? Do you know how dangerous it is to overuse the Mana Pupils? He could have gone blind!
- Impossible. At least not with me beside him.
- What? What do you mea-
- Shhh! You should focus on the fight. They both have used most of their mana. This is the end of the fight.
