《Magus Of Darkness》Chapter 3: An example
Advertisement
“Now Shall we fight?” Said Adrius with a murderous glint in his eyes.
Then he charged at Christen without any warning, in the three months he spent on the journey he has trained everyday with his family knight technique and his body has become 3 times stronger than the average human. So his speed was 3 times faster than the average human, and in just 5 seconds he ran 25 meters and was in front of Christen. Before she could react Adrius struck with fists, he was aiming at her stomach but in the last second she dodged it and the fist hit her left arm.
“Crack”
The bone breaking sound rang throughout the circle that was around these two, and it made some people shiver.
“Ahhhh!” Screamed Christen with a horrified expression looking at her arm, her arm was pointing in the wrong direction and the white bones were visible to the human eyes to see. Some students passed out on the ground when they saw that scene, some vomited and some stood still as a rock without any expressions like it was not the first time they saw an arm break.
“You bastard you have no honor, you attacked me without any warning!” Screamed Christen with a distorted look on her face from the pain. She has also trained in a knight technique and her body was also 3 times stronger than the average human. But when Adrius hit her he targeted the joint of her elbow and when the force hit it,it couldn’t dispatch the force around the body because Christen was not in a good situation so the force of the punch broke it.
“ Honor? This is fighting there is no honor in it” Replied Adrius with a laughter. ‘ Who would fight with honor if you could end the fight fast and not get injured?’ Thought Adrius to himself.
“ I will fucking kill you, you are a honorless sucm!” Screamed Christen with fury burning in her eyes, she has now forgotten about her dead cousin. And she wants to kill Adrius because of her family honor that has been dragged in the dirt from the beginning of this fight.

“Kill me? I think I need to show you what happens when you say something like that to the wrong person” Said Adrius with a smile on his face, when the students saw this smile they got a chill at their spine.
Adrius came in front of Christen and reached for her right hand, but Christen wouldn’t go without a fight so she threw a punch. But it had no speed in it therefore Adrius dodged it without any effort. When Christen saw this she lost all of her courage and started to ask for help from the people watching, but no one looked in her eyes because they knew that if they walk then this Adrius will beat the living shit out of them. When Christen saw this, the tiny bit of hope she had left her body, she wanted to plead for mercy but before she could say anything a hand grabbed her neck and raised her.
Adrius had her in the air and gasping for air, she struggled to make him let go of her but she couldn’t, her vision started to go black and that last thing she saw was her killer's face, he had a bronze skin with a shoulder long black hair, he had brown eyes. His face was completely average but his eyes had a glint of knowledge desire in them.
Then her vision turned completely dark and her body went limp, She was dead.
When Adrius felt her pulse stop he let go of her body, her face was still showing a terrified expression.
“Hmm I thought she was a little bit tougher? Guess not” Giggled Adrius in an amused manner. After saying that he continued his way, but this time no one got in his way.
‘ Humff If I haven’t made that last comment I’m sure that these motherfuckers will stand in my way again, but I think they got the message’
Adrius didn’t know that the magus from the tents watched the whole thing. In a tent had the sign The Raven Academy, stood a magus with a look in his eyes that said interesting, he was tall around 2 meters, he had a muscular body and a bold head, he had pale skin. He also had a Raven tattoo on the back of his right hand.

“ That kid is a good actor, and he knows that if you don’t want to get annoyed then make an example.” Said the muscular man with a deep voice.
Outside the tent stood Adrius, ‘ so this is the Raven academy tent, it looks “interesting”’ The tent was surrounded by raven. Then he opened the tent and walked in, he was greeted with a maid that led him to the person that is responsible for registration and bringing new students to the academy. He was tall around 2 with a bald head and pale skin, when Adrius saw him he bowed and said with a polite voice “ Hello my lord my name is Adrius Caseo and I would like to join your academy”.
“First of all what is your talent grade and your affinity?”
“ My talent grade is 4, and my affinities are mainly darkness and fire” Answered Adrius in the same polite manner.
“ Hmmm very good, the joining fee is 5 magical stones!” Said the bald man while he was writing Adrius’ name on paper.
‘ There is a fee? Properly the previous owner knew about it but because of my “good luck” I didn’t get the memories about it’, but then something came in his mind ‘ hmm what if?’ Then he took out a slightly broken ring and showed it to the magus.
“ Aha you have a magical artifact, it is damaged badly but fixable. This will cover your fee” Said the magus with a calm voice.
‘ Humf it was a good thing that I took this ring from that Christen’ When he was choking her he saw the ring on her hand and when she tried to scratch his face he held her hand and took the ring and kept it in his hand.
“Now you are officially a student of the raven academy, put your hand on this” Pointed the magus to an orb. When Adrius put his right hand on it a raven tattoo appeared on the back of his hand.
“Is this permanent?” Asked Adrius
“No, but as long as you are in the academy you would have this tattoo” Answered the bald magus
“ Now this is your room's key and number” The bald magus gave Adrius a key and a paper with the number 43.
“Which room?”
“ Get out from there and you will know what I mean” Pointed the bald magus to the direction of the back on the tent.
When Adrius got out he saw an air-ship, then he walked into the ship and got to room 43, he put the key in the hole and opened the door. His room was like the last one but this had a bigger space.
He walked to the bed and dumped his bag that was on his shoulder, he didn’t have anything special just some clothes and the knight technique manual.
Suddenly there was a knock on his door, Adrius was startled but got himself together and opened the door.
He was greeted with a maid holding a dozen clothes,
“This is for you sir”
“What is this?”
“That is your academy uniform” The maid gave him the clothes and then walked away.
“ Well I needed some clothes” Said Adrius with an amused face.
