Chapter 9

At Vaneth Academy once your accepted each class is open to you. If you want to take it just walk in and sit down, but this means if you take a class that's to far ahead and don't know what's going on you will fail. The more advanced classes expect you to know the basics from the lower classes.

I would attend some lectures just to keep up the appearance of a student while searching for clues about what happened to me. I also spent the last few weeks visiting Lukilin and inspecting the pieces she made for my weapon.

She has had to start over a few times, but she seems determined to make it exactly how I want it. I've had many conversations with her and found out that she's 22 and her brother Masir is 26.

I enjoy our talks, but she does love to talk about weapons. I talked to Masir about my satchel. I wanted to know if he could do that same kind of enchantment and he told me he could but it would take him twice as long as a master enchanter. He was only an advanced enchanter.

I've visited my grave and of course there is no body in it. I also tried to talk with Paltor, but he seems to be avoiding me.

Tessa and Ruby passed there tests and are now taking classes here. Tessa was tested by the old man who told me I was dieing. Since Tessa is already a master class healer, she's been taking classes to become a warrior Mage. Ruby was tested by Cal and it turns out that's who she was looking for.

Ruby didn't even last a second against Cal and I even thought Ruby was pretty good. Cal left immediately after and Ruby followed right after her. Tessa, Ruby and I gathered to celebrate getting into the Academy and Ruby told us she was accepted into the peace keepers.

We all got drunk that night and thanks to luck we made it back to my room. We all three slept in my bed curled up together. The girls were very embarrassed the next day so they avoided me during lunch and dinner, but after cuddling with them they felt a lot closer to me.

I also spent my free time using the powders I bought to make important pieces to my weapons. I made so many that if I didn't have this satchel I would've needed to rent one of the storage buildings.

It's been a month and a half since we got to Vaneth Academy and I was sent to pick up a new student waiting in the peasant section.

I was told she was a blue haired girl waiting in the Sleeping Lion which is a bar. I wondered why she would wait at a bar. When I entered I looked around and saw a blue haired girl that was about six feet tall with long blue hair that went half way down her back, beautiful blue eyes, a perfect figure and a rather large bust.

I couldn't believe how beautiful she was, but there was a group of three men surrounding her and she looked kind of scared. The men obviously had lust in their eyes. I was about to walk up to them when they left out the back with her. I ran out the door and saw the me. Surrounding her in the alley behind the bar.

I could see fear on her face, but before I could do anything I instantly stopped moving. I was surprised, her expression suddenly became a wicked grin, and shoved her hand straight through the stomach of the man in front of her. She then slammed her leg into another mans balls and I could hear a cracking sound as he fell to the ground crying.

She pulled her hand out of the first man and slung the blood into another mans eyes then punched him in the chest sending him flying back into the wall. All three of them were down now and her expression turned back into fear.

Girl:"oh no! I did it again!"

She kneeled down next to the man with the broken balls and started talking to him while she cried.

Girl:"I'm *sniff* *sniff* sor-r-r-ry. I d-d-d-didn't mean to. Will you *sniff* *sniff* for-r-r-rgive me."

The man was unconscious so he didn't say anything back to her and it only made her cry more. I was scared of her and wanted to run away, but it was my job to bring her to Vaneth Academy so I used body modification to strengthen my balls and approached her.

Falon:"Um excuse me I'm here to bring you to Vaneth Academy."

She turned and looked at me still with tears in her beautiful eyes, but she was calming down.

Girl:"Your here *sniff* for me *sniff*."

Falon:"Yes.... so if you could please follow me."

I just noticed that I approached her with both of me hands in the air so I decided to put them down. The girl then jumped from where she was kneeling and wrapped her arms around my arms and waist trapping me in a bear hug.

Girl:"I'm so happy that you came for me. I was so scared."

The girl had a very tight grip on me, and I didn't know what to do. We stayed like that for an hour before she finally released me, but she held onto a part of my cloak. We started walking back to the Academy and got a few stares since this very beautiful girl was following me while holding onto my cloak.

Falon:"My name is Falon what's yours?"

Girl:"It's Laya."

Falon:"Well Laya it's nice to meet you."

Laya started to look really happy.

Laya:"Really! Your glad you met me!"

Falon:"Sure."

I said will applying body modification to my balls.

Laya:"Yay! I have a friend!"

We made it back to the Academy, and when I brought her to her room she didn't want to separate from me. I was able to finally convince her and she reluctantly let me go.

I went to see Lukilin and found out all the pieces of my weapons were done. I inspected them all and was satisfied with her work. When I told her, she had a triumphant look on her face. I left three pieces with Masir so that he could put the same enchantment on them that I had on my bag.

When I got back to my room I assembled all the pieces that I had and placed the weapons into my satchel. I went to sleep and woke up later that night to find Laya asleep in my bed. I was surprised that I didn't sense her come in.

I was scared of what might happen if I throw her out so I went back to sleep. I was reminded of Cal and slept pretty well. She started sleeping with me every night after that and I gradually got more comfortable around her.

I found out after a few days that she was skilled at dark and light magic. That's why I didn't sense her sneaking into my bed since she could conceal her presence. I watched a few of her sparring classes and I could see that wicked grin during every fight.

I found out that she was able to create small shields using light magic that she placed over her hands and feet then she would fight with those. That explains how she was able to tear through that dudes stomach so easily back in the alley.

After two weeks Masir hand finished enchanting the pieces I left with him and I completed the weapons by adding the last pieces. My guns were finally done.

I had three side arms one modeled after the colt python .357 magnum, also known as the combat magnum with a 8-inch (20 cm) barrel. The second one was modeled after the Smith & Wesson Model 29 .44 magnum, better known as the Dirty Harry gun with a 8⅜ inch (20.5 cm) barrel. They were both silver with a white pearl grip. I made holsters for the two of them, one on each leg. I felt more comfortable with a gun on my hip.

My third gun was modeled after a semi-automatic Colt M1911A1 .45 ACP with a 5.03 inch (12.776 cm) length. I also had a silencer created for it. It was black with a black combat grip. I left this gun in my satchel with the black silencer.

I had Masir cast the enchantment onto the magazine of the M1911A1 and the cylinders of the python and model 29. This allowed me to load the guns with an unlimited number of bullets. I could create an almost infinite clip.

I still wasn't ready to use the guns yet because I wanted to have the bullets enchanted too. Masir was able to enchant over 100 bullets at a time and it took him over a week to enchant them all since I made so many.

I also had Lukilin make a few pairs of handcuffs just in case that I kept in my satchel. They wouldn't be very useful against a Mage, but they could hold just about anyone else.

I had finished most of the things I wanted to do here except find any information on what happened to me the day I died so I decided to go looking for Paltor.

When I got to his office I saw Fraya coming out.

Falon:"Hey Fraya is the headmaster in there?"

Fraya:"He is but he's not taking any visitors right now he has a lot to prepare for."

Falon:"Why? What's happening."

Fraya:"Our grandfather is coming to visit the school."

I was surprised since I never met our grandfather before.

Falon:"What kind of man is he."

Fraya:"Well he is very secretive and only told us that he was our grandfather recently. Our parents said that he wanted to keep it a secret from us until we became adults."

Falon:"Why?"

Fraya:"He said he wanted to watch our family from the outside and she how well his son did as a father with out any help."

Fraya:"Apparently dad was sad when he wasn't born with red hair like his father so grandfather made his life hard to toughen him up."

Falon:"Sounds like he just didn't any annoying kids around him."

Fraya:"Actually he was in our life. He taught Leon and Cal how to use a sword."

*That mercenary from our village is our grandfather!*

Fraya:"He told us that he wants to get involved in the fight against the Demon King."

Falon:"So when is he arriving?"

Fraya:"Today. He should be here anytime now. I'm about to head to the front gate to escort him into the school do you want to come with me."

Falon:Sure I'd love to."

Fraya started smiling and walked down the hall way while I followed after. We reached the gate and waited for about an hour and a half when he finally arrived.

Fraya:"It's good to see you are well grandfather."

She bowed so I did to.

Falon:"It's nice to meet you I'm Falon a student here."

He didn't say anything and just looked at me then looked down to my guns hanging off my hip.

Grandfather:"Boy where did you get those weapons?"

Falon:"I had them made here."

Grandfather:"hhhmm. Can I ask you a question."

Falon:"Of course."

Grandfather:"Do you believe in reincarnation."
