I could see that my hands were shaking and unable to produce anymore water blast, I was drenched with sweat and had a headache from overworking myself. Still I had a victorious smile, it took me the entire day meaning I'll start ice magic tomorrow but I did it though. Froggy was unmoving cause my water blast destroyed froggy's chest. I finally got that disrespectful thing.
What was left was for me to absorb mana, I started with that and went through the entire process with an unconcealable smile on my face. You just wait everyone, I'll show you all that you made a mistake deciding my fate and thinking I'll be nothing worthy to enter a guild. With those thoughts I went back to the house only to find Arya and Zoe waiting for me outside the door, I groaned cause I know my day is about to be ruined.
" Where exactly have you been?" asked Arya with her arms crossed over her chest , I answered" I think it's none of your business" . She continued" Can't you see that what you're doing to grandma is wrong, you're making her worry and are filling her with false hope. Just accept that you have no moonra and therefore aren't meant to do magic" Zoe nodded agreeing with her " listen Arya I'm not doing anything to grandma and you should just leave me alone" . " You aren't meant to be like us , your situation it's that of a disabled mage and you wouldn't last even a single second against me" I chuckled at her and having had enough I asked " is that a challenge?".
" Oh no you can't be serious Claudia, you want to fight Arya?" Asked Zoe, " and what if I do ?". Both of them laughed causing me to feel annoyed and I got filled with the determination of proving them wrong. " You know what? fine, I think I should teach you a lesson so you can get a taste of the magic world" said Arya overflowing with confidence. We went a little further away from the house, we stood four metres away from each other. " This will be too easy" Arya touched her necklace and said " wind magic , Wind blade attack!" A wind blade appeared that was ten centimetres long , so her magic is wind, I couldn't help but smirk at how long it took for her to summon it.
She sent her wind blade my way and knowing that I still hadn't practiced a way to protect myself I'll have to stop her attack with another attack. I held out my hand and created two bean size water blasts and fired them towards the wind blade. The two attacks clashed and dispelled each other, " h-how - h-ho w but- you ! Don't have a moonra so how" mumbled Zoe on the side who couldn't believe what she had seen , so was Arya . Seeing that she was in a state of shock I used that to my advantage and fired three more water blasts , compared to her I was fast so she didn't have enough time to do a spell. Just when the three bean size water blasts were about to hit her she got saved by a plant wall.
" That's enough fighting from you two!" oh no that was grandma's voice and she sounds angry. Indeed she stood infront of the door with her hands on her hips , she sighed and said "I hope this helps prove that Claudia isn't some disabled mage Arya and from now on you'll stop questioning her actions just as she doesn't question yours" , " but how? Grandma she has no moonra yet she was able to perform magic and she's not even in level 1 but-t her magic and casting of magic is better than my own" said Arya. " You really can use magic!" said Zoe in which I ignored them and went inside to take a bath. It's been a long exhausting day and I'm sure tomorrow will be even worse as I have to start with ice.
I was in my blue night dress brushing my hair when I heard a knock on the door " you can come in" , the door opened slowly and in came Zoe and Ayra. Zoe pushed Ayra forward who was nervously bitting her nails" Uhm we came here to Uhm to say that we're sorry for not believing you. We should've given you a chance but instead ridiculed you" said Zoe, " yeah I'm really sorry for mistreating you and being angry and mean to you for no reason at all, I had no right to tell you what you can and what you can't do so please forgive us" added Arya with her head lowered in shame. I sighed " thank you for apologising, yes you did me wrong but I don't blame you. My situation is very weird and there are people who have acted the same way as you have before but you guys are different. You saw your mistake and are here trying to make up for it which is something to admire so of course I forgive you, the two of you are my first friends" they smiled in relief when they heard the last part.
Zoe rushed for a hug " why are you standing there? Come on" Arya also joined our hug when she heard my words, the test might be to not judge someone with assumptions or by his/her cover but the real test is what you do when you have wrongfully judged someone and I think they passed the test...
I woke up feeling very refreshed ready for training, everyone was still sleeping so I left for my training area. Standing before the river I sat down and after a few seconds trying to connect with the energy around me I began absorbing mana. I felt very close to the other end of the bridge but something was blocking me, I'm guessing it's because of my negligence towards my ice and lightning magic. This is truly not something for the weak willed.
Done with my first meal of mana I was ready to start with ice magic. For having the ability of freezing something that flows and adapts with life, what will one call you exactly?
