《Heir of the Divine Phoenix》21. First Lesson [2]
Advertisement
''Hey, I heard my father talking about you, I wonder what's so special about you...'' The blondie girl said with a bit of disdain, however, there was a hint of jealousy too.
Feuer didn't want to talk as he was paying attention to what the Instructor was saying but then, he looked on the Princess direction, scanned her from up and down and shook his head before paying attention to the lesson.
''So, as I was saying, there are 9 realms for both cultivators and mages, however, do you know about the technique and magic rankings? I thought so, this will be the first lesson, this time, we will talk about it!'' The Instructor said, he almost laughed when he saw what Feuer did but decided not to point it out after seeing the red face of pure anger that the Princess has.
''Both Magic and Techniques have a special ranking: Tiers, this is where the nine realms are involved, there are 9 Tiers, each of them is equivalent to a realm, Tier 1 to the Martial/Spiritual Awakening and so on!'' The Instructor said as the class gasped in surprise, Feuer also felt surprised, this wasn't on the book at all 'I wonder why only the Academy inside this Kingdom has that information?' he thought while narrowing his eyes.
The twin's eyes were also sparkling, it seems they're both hungry for knowledge, Feuer guessed that the girl only tried to mock him out of pure jealousy, he understands that very well 'I also hated when my father compared me to other kids, principally when I thought they weren't better than me...'
It's something normal, no one, principally in the puberty, likes to be compared to another kid, for most, it hurt, principally when their self-esteem is low, it just makes it lower, shaking his head, Feuer started to pay attention to the lesson, the Instructor already changed the subject to talk about the wars that happened

''As almost everyone here knows, in the past, there were many wars, that was known as the [Chaotic Era] due to the constant wars and the fact that peace was something temporary, sooner or later, it would be broken, now, now, is there someone who can answer me who was the true winner of the [Scattering War]?'' The Instructor said with a small smile, this question is, in fact, a disguised banana peel, ready for some student to slip.
And someone took the bait, it was the Princess, she seems to like attention, this was Feuer first impression of her ''This is an easy question, it was, of course, the humans!''
Her brother, at the side, shook his head, Feuer then raised his hand as the Instructor signaled for him to answer ''This is something that most want but unfortunately, the true winners of the [Scattering War] weren't humans, this is what the books make it look like, it's true that we indeed have 3 of the 6 continents, however, these are the ones with less territory, for an example, even if we mixed these three continents, it'll only be compared to the entire Demonkin and their continent is smaller than the Beastkin, Elves, Dwarves, etc...''
''To simplify things, the true winners were, in fact, the Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes and whatever other race inside the [Nature Alliance], the [Elnith] continent is populated by the races inside that alliance, it is also the biggest continent, you may say that just because it is the biggest, it doesn't mean it is the best, the [Elnith] continent, due to the Elves, that govern it, having an extreme affinity towards Nature...'' Feuer paused for a bit before continuing
''Over time, they made so that the entire [Elnith] continent is full of trees and things like that, which also made the natural resources inside it richer!'' He finished as the class fell in silence before everyone, including the twins and the Instructor clapped.

The Instructor felt embarrassed slightly, while this was indeed true, his own knowledge was lacking a bit compared to Feuer in that case 'How he knows so much? Did he study from his mother tomb or something?' before saying
''As student Feuer said, the [Nature Alliance] was indeed the true winner of the [Scattering War], even now, they're in peace because they maintained themselves as neutral, originally, many races, including humans, enslaved the Elves due to their features, however, that stopped after the [Scattering War] as they now hold great importance through the world!''
Unknowingly, the lessons passed extremely fast as a 'Ding Dong' sound was heard by everyone, the Instructor also felt surprised as he said ''Time passed fast today, right, students? Well, for today, those were the lessons, make sure to study, the Library is also open for every student if you don't have the material to study in your home, bye!'' before vanishing from the sight of the students, even Feuer could only see a faint silhouette.
'This is the power of someone at Low Martial Lotus, huh... As I thought, the difference between Martial Body/Spiritual Manifestation compared to Martial/Spiritual Lotus is incredibly huge... I can fight against someone at Peak Martial Body on practically equal ground and with luck, win, however, I don't stand even a tiny chance against someone at Low Martial Lotus, sigh' Feuer thought while sighing inwardly.
Someone tapped his shoulders, looking back, he saw that it was the Princess, her eyes looked around as she said ''S-Sorry for saying that things on the start of the lessons...''
'Did I became some kind of anime protagonist?' Feuer thought before smiling slightly ''No need to worry, I know how bad it is when a father compares his son or daughter to another kid!''
The Princess became slightly excited as she said ''Right, I agree totally! By the way, my name's Diana Eis, nice to meet you, Feuer!'' completely forgetting the hostility shown before by her towards Feuer.
Shaking his head 'This girl is very childish, isn't she? I just hope she isn't tsundere, they're annoying...' Feuer thought before replying ''Nice to meet you too, Diana!''
Like that, Feuer got himself a new friend, the second friend he ever had.

A New Kind of Freak (A dragon evolution story)
For dragons, those who dominate the food chain, growth is always a troublesome time. Left to fend for oneself with only a library of memories passed down as their inheritance, no fate is worse than being a failure before birth. What can a small mutated hatchling do in such snowy outskirts? With few options besides magic, the Nexus provides a quick source of power, but that does not mean his enemies were without strength. Levels and stats are available to all in this dragon eat dragon wor- "So... am I really made of Ice-cream?" * * * This is a Progression fantasy where the main concept is about the growing protagonist actually focusing on their own growth without passing through constant hoops for the sake of it. He stays out of trouble, albeit not always successfully, and only cares about evolving enough that he can hold his own weight in the world. Showing that being made of ice-cream isn't a weakness, but a strength when nurtered properly. Also it doesn't end in a protagonist who becomes/kills god, because that just doesn't fit the theme.

I, Mor-eldal: The Necromancer Thief
As a budding little necromancer, I soon discovered that the world of city people is complicated. When my master kicked me out of the cave, he warned me not to talk about my “dark” magic, because people here don't like the undead. I am not really an undead, I just have a skeleton hand, but it is better to be careful. Anyway, that's not my biggest worry. In the Black Dagger brotherhood, I learn a lot of things, such as illusionist magic, which turns out to be quite handy to survive in this maze of streets: in the Cat Quarter, we have thugs of all kinds that are best avoided. But we also have good people, goodhearted “gwaks”, as we say around here. Little did I know that I would soon be caught up in an infamous traffic that would entangle my life even more. With a mix of lighthearted adventure and picaresque, this story narrates the hectic life of a good-spirited street child and his companions in a medieval urban fantasy setting with some nineteenth-century influences. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2017 and 2018.
