Mo Fan's classes on Magic Theory did not have good attendance, but he could not have cared less about that. Ever since he had learned that they were allowed to combine the three classes into one, he had asked Mu Bai to handle Magic Theory while he focused on magic duels and demon creatures. The shift was extremely effective.
The public class for magic duels would be held the next Friday. Being a public class not only meant all students were allowed to participate in it, but even other lecturers and leaders of the school could attend. It was an important class at the school. The quality and scale of the class would decide the lecturer's reputation.
Mo Fan's group held another excursion before the public class. A lot more students showed up this time. Almost all of them were eager to see the Earthworm Gully, as rumors about the previous excursion had already spread wildly among the students.
More students signing up for the excursion meant more money for them!
When Ritchie lost to Herr Casa, Zhao Manyan had lost half of the gold he had saved up for them. He decided to earn a portion of it back through the excursion. Otherwise, they might not have the capital to take part in the betting for the upcoming class.
"We've earned ten thousand gold from the excursion. Those assh****, not only am I going to beat the crap out of them and ruin their reputation, I'll make them lose all their gold too!" Zhao Manyan promised.
They put in a lot more effort in the excursion to satisfy the students. Not only did they bring the students out to see the rare Half-Lunar Bone Beasts, every student also went back to the school with full hands.

Their only goal was to get revenge.
They were representing their country as part of their cover. They could not afford to shame their country's name!
------
It was finally Friday. Nelson, hailing from the Institute of Liberty, was a reputable teacher of magic dueling. Almost every young Mage who was interested in becoming a fighter wanted him to be their teacher.
Mo Fan could not help but scoff at the statement.
What a bunch of idiots! One could only learn the necessary skills to be a fighter by going through real wars and ferocious battles! If they really wanted to become fighters, they should go roaming in the wilderness alone or fight against the hordes and kingdoms of demon creatures. They would easily learn a great deal as long as they could come out alive!
Bai Hongfei was an unreliable guy like that at first, but his temperament had changed completely after he paid a visit to West China. If he had not been a few years behind them and had a weaker cultivation, his strength would be on par with theirs now!
One had to be covered in blood before they could become unbeatable. Mo Fan had been through all kinds of situations. Meanwhile, Nelson was living like a prince while using his mouth to teach. Why would he be afraid of Nelson?
The public class was being held in a huge stadium. The students were seated around the dueling ground like the Colosseum. The stadium was easily big enough to hold an international tournament.
Nelson and two eye-catching assistants stood at the center of the dueling ground. The two assistants were wearing tight-fitted fighting outfits which delicately displayed their impressive curves, making the other lecturers envious of Nelson.
They had no idea if Nelson had coerced the two assistants for sexual favors, but they would be satisfied if they also had assistants like them standing at their sides on such a big occasion.

"Today!"
Nelson's voice echoed in the stadium. There were over a thousand students in the stadium. The front rows were occupied by the school personnel and the lecturers from other factions. They all treated Nelson with great respect.
"I'll be demonstrating Magic Seals to everyone. What are Magic Seals? First, let's conduct a simple experiment. Is there any student who's willing to volunteer for this?" Nelson asked.
A lot of teachers and students quickly raised their hands to volunteer for the experiment.
Nelson picked a male student in the end. Mo Fan knew who the student was. It was the same guy who tried to mess with him with a difficult question on his first class, Simpkins.
Simpkins walked to the center of the stadium calmly, like he was used to staying in the limelight, yet his eyes were glittering proudly.
"Lecturer Nelson, what should I do?" Simpkins asked respectfully.
"Attack my assistants with a few Intermediate Spells," Nelson said.
"Got it!"
Simpkins looked at the two assistants and decided to target the brunette on the left.
Simpkins started channeling Intermediate Spells. He purposely added some fancy light to his spells to show off his outstanding control. The spells looked spectacular and dangerous!
The brunette was a Wind Mage. She moved as agilely as a gust of wind. She had no trouble dodging Simpkins spells, regardless of their speed and accuracy.
Simpkins was not pleased with the outcome. He began to attack with his quickest spells, yet the brunette was able to dodge them easily, even when the spells sprang forward with the speed of light.
The other assistant suddenly appeared behind Simpkins, diving at him with a beastly aura.
It took Simpkins by surprise. He was forced to withdraw his attacks and defend himself.
"As you all have observed, many spells have difficulty landing on the enemies when they are moving at high speed. Spells that are slow are completely useless. However, if you focus too much on speeding up your spells, you might overlook the potential threats around you," Nelson said.
The students nodded. Not being able to land their spells was a very serious problem.
Most spells had obvious signs when they were being channeled: the Star Patterns, Star Constellations, and Star Palaces! Not many people could attack their enemies without alerting them. If their enemies were smart, including demon creatures, they could dodge the spells by observing their signs. It was often a struggle to land spells on agile targets.
"Today, I'll be teaching you an advanced technique, the Imprint Magic I've invented myself!
"There are many kinds of Magic Seals. The simplest kind are the Seals that contain our Will. When we focus on a single target, we can see through its movements with ease, but when we are going up against multiple enemies, we can't focus on a single target for a long time. Therefore, I've invented the Seal Tagging Technique. It works by tagging the enemies with a Seal so you can lock your spells on the target to improve your accuracy."

The Triumvirate has known peace for 10,000 years. Their technology dwarfs that of Man, and for almost a century now Humanity has done everything they have asked of us, in order to learn even a fraction of their secrets. With their help, we have abolished poverty, and hunger. War is now a thing of the past. We have made incredible strides in a very short time period...and yet the Triumvirate races keep us at arm's length. They see us as half-evolved apes, too violent even now to keep company with our betters. They call us...Barbarians. But sometimes, a Barbarian is exactly what you need. (This incredible piece of artwork was a commission by Harry Rowland (@rowl_art_)...and I couldn't be more amazed at the job he's done. If you're looking for something like this, give him a yell.)

What happens when the most powerful man in the world loses his soulmate to a heart attack? What happens when an innocent woman is dragged into a world of magic, and superheroes? Who is the true hero of the story? Note: This is the first book I ever wrote seriously. (I even had a cover made before I decided against publishing it) I'd like to think my writing style has improved with practice, and the multiple other books I've worked on. It felt wrong to leave a nearly completed book gathering dust in my google docs, but I don't think it's good enough to be officially published. As a result, I'm putting it here instead where it at least won't be totally wasted. Eventually, I'll put in the last 10 hours or so to finish it for you guys. Hope you like it :)

It was then did John use a dark magic that did he got them out of that situation. But in exchange for the princess's safety, John Sarvod was exiled from A'vetheas for using 'demon magic'. What will he do after the life he knew was uprooted and taken away from him? Will the 'demon magic' that caused his exile from the Elven Tribe bring him into a slow descent into madness? Book 2 description: Having found a life for himself outside of A'vetheas, a family, enrolled to a good school, and a potential romantic partner, John Sarvod continues on with his life the best he could, carrying himself forward, until... He messes it all up again. This time, however, it isn't because of his magic. It was by his own demerit. What is the cause of despair? Find out in Consignor Book 2. Old description (Without spoiler) John Sarvod, user of the most powerful healing spell [Heal], the rare ability to heal and recover all injuries, is the only human that lives in the Elven Tribe. Though he was gifted with [Heal], he could not cast any magic other than his one and only [Heal]. Aside from his current training to become a royal scribe, he is known to all elves as the ‘Healer of A’vetheas’ and had gained a certain amount of respect from them due to how much he works. But life for him in the Elven Tribe, A’vetheas wasn't never always like this. Because he was human, and that the Elves have isolated themselves from the outside world, his presence initially was not welcomed by the elves that thinks highly of him today. It was all thanks to the Elven Queen who brought him in, and the Elven Princess, Raina Valindra Eridi, that he could reach this day. But things changed when the Raina that he so adored used the teleportation device for a small date with him, where they met with danger that the [Heal] that he relied all this time could not save him from… In his desperate attempts to save Raina, John ended up committing a taboo of the elves. As for his punishment when he returned to A’vetheas? That was just the beginning of him, continuing the path that he had inevitably taken prior to the life he had before he lived in A’vetheas. This is a story of a not too average person end up becoming something that he could have never imagined. A monster? A demon? A god? Only time will tell. It is just a matter of time that John Sarvod would embrace his true self. Content Warning because I want to have flexibility, and maybe it gets overwhelming at times. I have a backlog already, this story won't be dropped. Edited: romance tag to action tag, story has more or less of both, but yeah. There's slice of life tagged in because my story progresses not too quickly (by my opinion) I like to take things slow, I suppose. :3
