《The Misadventures of a Young Dark Magician》Episode 4 (Part 7)

Meanwhile, back at the Monster World, the class ended, and Sebastian went back to the library to check up on more books. That nap he had earlier refreshed him right back up. But there was no time for any proper celebration just yet. He still had to continue his research.
That was when some loud footsteps startled the boy, causing him to nearly trip and drop his books.
How rude! Sebastian thought, after gaining his composure. Had that person never been to a library before?! Whoever’s that needs to be silent! Sebastian turned to see Troy, who once again, bothered him while he [Sebastian] was busy with something else entirely.
“Hey there, Sebastian, what’s up?” Troy asked.
Sebastian put his finger to his mouth and shushed him. “This is a library; did you forget?” He hissed, “Now whatever do you want? Can’t you see I'm a busy man over here?”
“Oh, sorry,” Troy whispered back. “But I wanted to bring you a message.”
“Who, Bridget or Glenda?”
“Neither, it’s actually from Lauren.”
“Really? But what could she possibly want?”
“She wants you to meet her at the P. E. fields after school today. You know where it is, right?”
“Yeah, besides the gym. But, do you know why, though?”
“No, I’m just a messenger.”
“But what if you’re lying to me?”
“Have I lied to you before?”
“No, I do not recall...”
This confused Sebastian. Why did she of all people, want to meet him there, of all places? Was it a prank? Did Lauren want to mock him for this morning? He was uncertain if he should follow this, but at the same time, this left Sebastian curious. Why couldn’t she ask him upfront instead of having a messenger tell him to meet her there?

Maybe it’s something important after all, so important that she wanted to speak to only him about the situation at hand. After much deliberation, Sebastian decided to go there to see what the fuss was all about. He took all of his books and headed out.
“Eh? Are you leaving already? But it’s not—”
“I don’t see why not,” Sebastian interrupted, “Besides, I don’t think it'd hurt to leave early.”
As he headed down that way, he nearly bumped into Glenda, and the two (secretly) chatted about the progress that they had made so far.
“Good afternoon, how are things going for you?” Sebastian greeted.
“It's fine. How about you? Found anything interesting?” Glenda asked.
“Going great, as a matter of fact, I’m going to investigate outside.”
“What an excellent idea! Don’t let me stop you now.”
As the two waved their goodbyes and parted ways, Glenda thought about contacting Clause, since she hadn’t heard or seen him in quite a while. A man calling out to her interrupted her thoughts, as she turned around and Troy dashed across the hallway in her view. She called him over shortly after.
“Troy, what l did I tell you about running in the halls?” She pointed at him, waving her finger in shame.
“Um, to not do it?” Troy answered.
“Precisely.” She wasn’t sure how to respond to that, but decided it was best to keep an open mind while she could.
“Hey, now that—”
Before Troy could finish his sentence, Glenda’s hologram phone started going off as she reached into her pocket to check who was calling.
Clause? What could he want now at a time like this? She placed her phone back into her pocket.
“Sorry, Troy, but this will have to wait. I have an urgent call to take, and don’t let me catch you running again.”
Glenda went off in a hurry, leaving Troy all alone in the halls. As he turned and went the opposite direction, a smile crept on his face.
Ah well, it’s her loss. Not like I have to tell her. I might as well see what they’re up to...

The Polyglot's Rune
Fear. Regret. Memories. They all flashed before my eyes as my life began to fade away. I felt a darkness encroach upon my heart followed by a sinister foreboding. Within that moment I was asked a single question by a powerful, mystical being. “Brave being, do you wish to accomplish a great deed in your life?” “No,” I refused, but the voice did not listen. It summoned me to its world only to try to have me slaughtered. But then, I was saved by him, the princess who disguised herself as a man. He was hellbent on revenge, and he was determined to drag me down with him. This story is meant to be a bit of a mix of genres and cultures, so there are some elements that may seem xianxia like, but it's not exactly the same so I didn't tag it. It also has multiple lead characters but is written in first person. Schedule: Dropped Normal Chapter Length: approximately 3000 words Warning: Tagged [15+] for Strong Language and Violence (Gore and Profanity aren't very prevalent, but I added the warning tags just in case).
