Chapter 6 - Chapter-6 Riddle Master

In the first part we see how Harry passes his first test, Despite his very few magical aura, he used his science brain and controlled his broom very well and even gave a tough fight to Elai who had the highest magical aura.

Now the teacher Ronal congrats them and says that it was easy to come till here but the last test that is going to happen is going to be very difficult for all of you, especially for those whose magical ability is the least, We can see that the teacher Ronal clearly pointing towards Harry. Teacher Ronal uses his magical powers to create a big wall there; Everyone is a little surprised to see the wall.

Harry looks at the wall and the tilted head asks, "Sir Ronal, I don't understand what we have to do this time."

Hearing such a question from Harry, everyone became silent and everyone started gossiping about harry and one of the boy said, "that you don't know that this is a very special magic of sir Ronal, after crossing this wall, we will find a maze which we have to cross and if we come back to this academy safely, then it means that we have been selected for this academy."

Teacher Ronal laughs and says, "it doesn't matter, many people probably won't know about this." and he thinks in his mind 'that most of the people know about this but I don't know why he doesn't know, does he not read the newspaper or he really doesn't know this and does he even have any information about this academy and there's teachers?'

Teacher Ronal wasted no time in starting the last test and all the students entered to the magic wall.

As soon as Harry enters the wall, he realises that he is completely alone in a different place.

"Where am I and where have all the students gone?"

Harry angrily thinks, 'I think i had to take a lot of hard exams to get into this academy. If he hadn't told them about me and my hide out, I would be doing a lot of interesting research right now in my house. It's all Lucas' fault.'

Meanwhile Lucas sneezes and says,"maybe someone is remembering me fondly"

Harry starts moving forward from his place when he hears someone growling, harry is terrified by the sound and slowly-slowly looks back?! He sees a huge wolf behind him and attacks Harry without blinking!?

On the other side we see the same boy who was telling Harry about Teacher Ronal's magic, He was moving ahead alone with his magic wand when suddenly a lion resembling a pyramid appears in front of him and starts asking him a riddle.

"I CAN BE HOT, I CAN BE COLD, I CAN RUN AND I CAN BE STILL, I CAN BE HARD AND I CAN BE SOFT.

WHAT AM I? If you don't give me an answer till I count 10 then you will be burnt to ashes."

They start counting...

'This is the great riddle lion pyramid if you can answer its questions it will let you go if you can't answer it right it will burn you with its magic power!'

The boy could not understand what the answer would be and so out of fear he attacks him with his magical power.

That thing is not affected by his attack, the lion pyramid again says, "answer me quickly or else you will be reduced to ashes."

He starts running away from there in fear but he is unable to do so because an invisible wall was stopping him.

"Answer me,...4....3....2"

"The answer is water."

Someone answers him from behind, whenever that boy looks back, Harry is standing there in a very injured condition,Harry was completely covered in blood, the boy gets very scared after seeing him and wonders 'what has happened to him, he is completely covered in blood.'

The lion pyramid says, "correct answer. now it's time for another riddle, THE MORE THERE IS, THE LESS YOU SEE. WHAT AM I? If you don't give me an answer till I count 10 then you will be burnt to ashes."

"No need, the answer is darkness."(Quickly, no hesitation)

Without hesitation and having received answers so quickly, the lion pyramid asks more difficult riddles, Q. "WHAT HAS SIX FACES, BUT DOES NOT WEAR MAKEUP, AND TWENTY-ONE EYES, BUT CANNOT SEE?"

A: "A dice."(Quickly)

Q. "WHAT GOES UP BUT NEVER COMES BACK DOWN?"

A: "Your age."(Quickly)

Harry was tired of answering such easy questions and said, "how boring; hey talking pyramid, once your questioning is done then I will ask you a question, if you can answer it then will you let me go from here"

Seeing this unbelievable confidence the lion pyramid said, "Ok, ask what you want to ask. If I am unable to answer, then you can leave from here with your friend."

On hearing the word friend, Harry looks at the boy and then pointing towards him tells the lion pyramid that, "he is not my friend."

The boy starts crying and falls at Harry's feet and pleads with him,"please help me, I also want to get out of here, please take me with you from here."

Seeing this crybaby, Harry finally agrees.

Harry ask,"I'm invisible but can be felt, keeping your feet on the ground, a force that holds everything bound. What am I?"

The Lion Pyramid began to wonder what the answer would be? 'wind, no wait this is not the right answer, the thing invisible but can be felt, keeping your feet on the ground, a force that holds everything bound? What's the answer?'

Lion Pyramid gets so lost in finding the answer that he removes all the barriers around him and focuses all his attention on finding the answer. Meanwhile, the two of them manage to escape from there while hiding.

The boy thanks Harry for taking him out from there and says, "how did you get so many injuries, your whole body is bleeding?" Harry says, "no this is not my blood."

Then we see the same place where the black magical wolf attacked Harry, but Harry takes out a metal ball gun from his bag to saved himself from the black wolf, due to which he knew very well that on which part he should attack and that would kill him, because Harry lived in the forest since childhood and he needed such weapons to survive in the forest, so he had already made many such unique weapons for himself, which would make it easier for him to survive there.

That wolf cannot be defeated without any magical powers but if you break the stone on his head or in simple words if you hit his head with something heavy then he can die, this affects everything be it a human or an animal but in the position I am in he cannot be killed, what should I do now, if i hit him anywhere else then he will heal himself with his magical power but i am unable to reach his head so let's do one thing, hit him on his neck, my gun will have very high speed from close range so if I hit him on his neck then he might die and using this trick, Harry shot the wolf in the neck and in the process got all of the wolf's blood on him.

Harry told this whole story to the boy and the boy started looking at Harry very carefully. Harry asks, "why are you looking at me like this?" the boy says, "that I have never seen anyone doing magic like this. What is your magic after all? you tricked the most powerful riddle pyramid and you are saying that you have also defeated a magical beast. What are you after all, even your magical mana is also very low. More important what is metal ball gun?"

Then the boy takes out his magic wand and chants a magical spell and because of his magic a lot of water falls on Harry and Harry becomes completely clean. Then the boy introduced himself, "hello my name is Eric avgal and as you can see I'm Lithen Marks my specialty is water magic?"

"Oh my name is Harry."

"Harry what.... what's your surname?"

"Harry Handwans."

"Wow you are so lucky that your surname is the same as Sir Alexander Handwans, do you know he is high ranking magical government member his ranking is 6th."

Hearing his father's name, Harry had a devilish smile on his face.

Then Eric notices something and says to Harry, when I met you for the first time you had a Lithen mark on your face but now the mark is gone?

Hearing this, Harry understands that the water has also washed away the ink mark on his face.

Harry hesitately says, "what... No.... no way, I don't have Lithen mark, I have a zanet mark."

"Really but I'm pretty sure I saw that on your face but now it's not here?"

Eric was a little suspicious of Harry, so he wanted to test Harry with his magical powers to see if he has any magical powers or not. Then Harry suddenly holds his hand and Eric gets scared and says "What are you doing?" Harry hesitantly says that I thought this is a maze and you will lost, so I held your hand so that you do not lost.

Eric still uses his magic to answer his suspicions and finds that Harry's magic power has increased slightly.

"Maybe I was doubting you unnecessarily, I am sorry."

"I saved you from the talking pyramid, what did you give me in return, you are doubting me?"

"Hey I still sorry that I doubted you but I got a little suspicious of your behavior so I did magic on you to get some peace of mind but I noticed your magic mana has increased a little bit than before but it is not much earlier it was 8.7 now it is 8.9."

'sigh, I was saved, it was good that I touch his hand in time, otherwise he would have come to know that I do not have any magic power, well the magical earring that Lucas gave me is such that I can absorb a little bit of magical aura from anyone, but this is just to show off.'

"So this means if you have Zanet's Mark, you can control not only magic but also magical weapons, wow that's awesome."

"Thank you you are awesome too, you are born with lithen marks so you can control even the hardest spells."

He laughs and says, "thanks but I am still not that special that's why I have come to this academy so that I can control even the hardest spells and keep my family's name higher in country."

Harry with an outer smile says inside, 'Stop talking nonsense you idiot, you have been talking so many nonsense for too long if you are so interested in talking then why are you bothering only me, stop walking with me and go somewhere you moron.'

As they both continue walking on their way, they hear a girl's loud screaming.
