Years have passed, the Wizarding five have become quite known mostly because they were the creators of the Behemoth, have a pet dragon with them, and they were the first set of people to surpass the nine star limit, which was previously the highest star level which a scholar or a mage could ever reach.
They are all ten star wizards and already have areas of specialisation, Barbara became adept with magic related to health such as healing and infectious diseases.
Larmore became specialized with the application of magic in the present technologies. Seraph began studying magic related to teleportation and interplanetary travels. Orpheus was adept in beast taming and control whether plants or animal.
Igor, unlike the other four, doesn't have a specific magic he specializes in, but he went on with the in-depth study of magic itself and its types. As each of them took on a magic they want to specialize in, they restructured magic spells and divided them according to their types.
Some of them includes: Elemental spells which can further be divided into, Wind magic, Earth magic, Fire magic, Water magic, Lightning magic, etc. Health spells which is divided into; Healing magic, Body regenerative magic, Mana regenerative magic, Stamina regenerative magic, Etc.
During this time, they succeeded in cleansing the baby dragone of its repugnant and repulsive energy reeking from it, though it took a lot of effort and energy. They named or rather Orpheus named the dragon "Anthony" because it resisted the effect of the dark energy residing in him.
Like other dragons which usually have fast growth spurts at their early stages of life, Tony also have a fast growth spurt, he's already a teenage dragon. Being a mystical type beast and a dragon, he possesses an affinity for magic, he assists the Wizarding five in their magic formulations.

In a dark room, filled with shelves of books and mauled bodies of beasts and people. At the middle of the room, a magic circle was drawn with numerous inscriptions and runes written on it and candles, placed in five points were lit.
On the magic circle, five individuals dressed in black hooded rope stood at the edges where the candles were placed, they were performing some ritual.
"It seems we don't necessarily need to ask those five to join us, the plan has gone very smoothly". An hooded man said.
"As the heads of the dark magicians, we have to do something about them, they took the dragons egg away from the hideout we put it, if that wasn't enough, they seem to have cleansed the energy off it and they took it in as theirs". A female hooded person said.
"All in favor of eliminating them before they get too strong to taunt our work ". An hooded man said.
All five of them raised their hands in favor of eliminating them.
"Perfect, by midnight we set out to their place of residence and cut them off". He said.

In the dark cold night, the full moon shined brightly in the sky, the winds was blowing with solemn rhythms and the tree branches rustled symphonically, Igor and Tony laid down at the terrace that is at the front of their house, they were enjoying the breeze of the wind.
Suddenly, an explosion blasted right on top of the roof of their house, startling them both and waking up the four others.
"What was that?!" Igor said stunned.
"What the hell was that explosion just now!". Barbara exclaimated.
After been startled by the explosion, Tony began to tremble as he sensed a familiar energy, he starts to shriek back, moving behind the Wizarding five. Orpheus noticed this, and asked:
"Tony? What is wrong, i know you can feel those energies but why are you scared of them".
"It's them, the ones who energized me with dark energy, while i was still an egg as at the time, i can definitely sense the outside world, they are very strong, i can't fight them at this stage of mine ". Tony said.
"What an indecisive wimp you are, i thought dragons are proud bunch of beasts who wouldn't let go of a grudge, you are a dragon where is your pride!, these people did an unforgivable act on you and all you could say is ' they are very strong, i can't fight them at this stage of mine', I'm disappointed ". Orpheus said in a serious tone.
"Orpheus! Don't say that, he is still a young dragon!". Barbara lashed out on Orpheus.
"So? He has been with us for a couple of years now and he has the knowledge of our magic, he could use that but ney, all he has to say is 'i can't fight them at this stage of mine'". Orpheus said.
"I think it's best if you two stop bickering, we've got a lot of companies around us". Larmore said.
From the bushes to tree branches surrounding their house, numerous people dressed in hooded black cloaks stood and pointed at them different types of weapons from arrows to daggers, wands, staffs, clubs and spares.
From among the numerous cloaked people, a person spoke:
"We have been watching you five for a very long time, we have tried inviting you to join us but we discovered that you wouldn't join us".
"You five are a great threat to us and our work, though we were a bit late to realize how much of a threat you will become, eliminating you right now is the best course of action ". The voice said.
Recognizing the voice of the person who just spoke, Orpheus had a grim smile on his face.
"You sly old man, I've been searching for you for years, but to think you will come to me by your self, it's hilarious, isn't it father ".
