A flaming bird form in the air in front of Solean and Noir. Solean smiles and turn back to Noir.
"So, wanna know what it feels like to fly?" Solean asked to Noir.
Noir nods as his eyes is gleaming looking at the flaming bird. Solean walks toward the bird and stand on top of it. Solean reach out his hand to Noir, as he grab Solean hands. Just when Noir step a foot on the bird expecting to be hot, it's rather quite warm and relaxing. Solean then point to the direction of the mountain.
"FLY AWAY!"
As the flaming bird fly in an extreme speed to the mountain. Both Solean and Noir arrive at the mountain just in a view seconds. The bird descend to the ground slowly, as Solean jump off from the bird. Solean reach out for a hand to help Noir get down easily. As Noir takes Solean hand, he slowly goes down from the bird. Just at the way down, Noir could feel the warmth of the flaming bird giving off, like a motherly warmth.
Noir bow down to give his gratitude to the flaming bird, as the flaming bird bow down back. Solean pats the bird head as he snap his finger.
"Thanks for your service, Sir. Phoenix" Solean Said just before the phoenix disappear in thin air.
Solean proceed to walk toward the teleportation circle, as it seems he erase all the rune. Solean keeps on walking and gesture his hand for Noir to follow him.
"Now, follow me Noir!"
"T-to where?"
"Just follow me for now. I will tell you all about it when we arrive"
After Solean said so, Noir just proceed to follow him. As both keep on walking through the forest on the hill. Noir looks around as both keep on walking, animals walking around them, running, and etc. After a view minutes of walking, Solean stops and in front of them is a waterfall.
"Now Noir, I want you to use Ether Wave right here, right now!" Solean commanded.
Noir nods and proceed to use Ether Wave to feel the Nature's Ether around him. Noir eyes widen as he get surprise after using the ether wave. In Noir surrounding there is Ether everywhere just like usual. But on the waterfall, it's rich of Ether, a tremendous amount of ether seems to keep flowing and replenishing,
"T-that... Waterfall is.." Noir said with a shock face
"Yep! That waterfall is rich of Ether. I'm not sure how it's rich with ether but I heard from some books that this waterfall is made by the first Queen Elf, when the first generation of wizards and witches exist"
"S-so... What test is it this time?"
Solean smiles, as he looks at Noir. His robe lit on fire, as he turn his whole body to look at Noir.
"The Third test... Is finally for you to learn or maybe master a Tier 3 Fire Magic!" Solean shouted as he raise his head to the sky out of his pride.
Noir eyes sparkle like a star as he seems to be unable to contain his excitement. Solean then walk over near the waterfall. As it seems a brown magic circle can be seen just on the middle of the pond of the waterfall. As Solean points at it and raise his hand.
[Tier 2 Earth Creation Magic : Ground Re-Shape]
As the ground below the pond raise slowly until it reach just above the water surface. a circular surface of dirt seems to raise till slightly above the water surface.
"Now, Noir!"
"Y-yes!"
"I need you to stand on that ground in the middle of the pond!"
Noir proceed to nod and a walk over near the pond, just before he touch the water a green magic circle appear below Noir.
[Tier 1 Wind Magic : Leap of Magic]
Noir leaps from the ground and tries to reach the place Solean told him to be at. Noir manage to land exactly on the ground, but he tilt slightly as he almost fell. A push of wind seems to balance Noir back. Noir turn around to see a small green magic circle appear on Solean hand.
"Now, Noir! Try to use a Tier 2 fire magic, take your time since I knew you haven't master it yet" Solean said as he sits on the ground.
"Y-yes Sir!"
Noir proceed to focus on creating a tier 2 red magic circle, it appears on the sky for a moment but disappear instantly.
"W-what is happening" Noir said with confusion on his face.
"HAHAHAH! That's right! This waterfall is rich with ether, that means--"
Just before Solean could finish his sentence "That means my own magic circle would get interrupted since the nature's ether is overpowering my ether!"
Solean face stoned "Y-yes..."
Solean feel depress as his cool statement just got stolen by his own disciple. Noir proceed to sit down in a meditation position, as he focus himself on creating a full magic circle. But it seems everytime the magic circle is quarter way done, the magic circle instantly disappear.
"Now... What will you do this time around kid? With this method, it should make you able to master a new spell or magic much faster..
"As this method will make you pour more Ether to create a magic circle, or use the nature's ether to create one. Either way it will make you master and easily cast a magic in a short amount of time..." Solean said inside his mind, as he smiles.
"Now... Just need to wait for this kid... And hopefully Zeo manages to clear the All-Eyes cult alone while I'm dealing with this kid..."
In another side of Kortopia, as the mountain is exactly east of Kortopia. A hooded figure can be seen walking in the forest west of Kortopia. The hooded man has a huge greatsword on his back. In the morning the figure can be seen much clearer, it seems the hooded man is very buff and looks to be a bodybuilder muscle.
As the man keep on walking and walking, a couple of creatures is hiding in the bushes. It seems those creatures want to ambush the hooded man. As all 4 of the monster jumps out of the bush to ambush him. It seems the monster is similar to a dragon, scaly, but very tiny compare to other a dragon. The creature seems to be as small as a 6 years old kid.
The hooded man draw his greatsword "Come at me! You damn Drakins!"
As all 4 of these monster that is called drakin all charged at the hooded man. In just a blink of an eye, two of the drakin got slash into two pieces horizontally on it's stomach just before those 2 could attack the man.
The other 2 drakin got startle for a moment but they seems to keep on charging. With just a single swing from left to right horizontally, the last 2 drakin got decapitated easily. On the chest of the huge man, a silver nametag can be seen. As the nametags has a name, it said 'Vice-Guild Master' and below it is 'Zeonyl'. It seems the vice guild master of the phoenix guild is this huge man name Zeonyl.
"Damn Drakins...
"Lurking on the land of Kortopia is a sin of itself... And so is those damn All-Eyes Cult..
"I should clear those up... Sir. Sol is busy with a kid, now the responsibility of protecting Kortopia is on me..."
As Zeonyl keeps on walking on the woods, patrolling around Kortopia without being seen by other people. Back on the Phoenix Guild base, Nora seems to deal with a lot of paperwork.
"That damn stupid Guild master. Being all high and mighty but doesn't even wanna do a paperwork because of some 'Kid'. What a bunch of excuses." Nora said with anger inside her mind.
Nora proceed to goes through the paper again slowly but surely, as 2 paper of wanted poster seems to be on the desk. The poster is very similar to the 2 people who is watching Solean from afar on last night incident with the Giganophant. Nora pick up the 2 wanted poster.
"And then there's this All-Eyes damn cult...
"We should clear them as fast as possible, but they are too good at hiding. Last night Mr. Zeonyl seems to founded them.. But they escape easily.."
Nora sigh off "Soo much things to deal with... I hope I'm not bald by the time I'm in my 50's"
As Nora continues to scroll through the paperwork after bursting her anger inside her own mind. Although with all the stress Nora had, it seems beside her is Sheila. Sheila seems to help Nora with her paperwork. It seems the presence of Sheila make Nora calmed down and get rid some of those stressful thought. Nora looks at her as Sheila tilt her head in confusion.
"Nevermind, heh" Nora said followed by a chuckle.
Sheila tilt her head in confusion, as the sun keeps on shining Kortopia like it always does...
