《The Mystic Healer》Chapter 16

"You have done well Thomas, even though I was not expecting you to bring back two prospects from that small township." the dean told the mystic before gesturing for Thomas to stand up in attention once more.
"Hearing you explain these two outside, I have decided to waver the one year test for this little girl here and to fully accept both of these children as students. However, you two should not take my decision lightly, I have only just received news that even our academy must take seriously."
"Every once in a while, our city Bitter Falls throws two different tournaments for children between the ages of ten and thirteen. The tournament our Griffin Academy is interested in, is of course the one for experts walking the path of the mystic."
"Usually, we would be much stricter when it comes to new students, but we have a very limited amount of time to come up with our school's representatives. Therefore, even if you two are only prospects right now, we will give you enough training resources until the tournament to see if either one of you could help represent our academy."
"I do not see this as a risk, but rather an investment since you both have somewhat rare elemental affinities and are still both rather young. The worst case scenario, is that you both will only stop your progress after the 3rd rank as mystics."
"Thomas, you are in charge of showing these two to their rooms. If they have any questions, please do your best to answer them. As far as their schedules, you can place them in our most basic classes for now and we will change according to how quickly they grow."
Waving his hand, the dean suddenly disappeared once more into a ball of flames. Thomas took this as being dismissed and led the two out of the room. From beginning to end, Lance was absolutely blown away from seeing such a powerful individual in front of him for the first time.

Although the dean was only a 6th rank mystic, he completely outclassed even his own teacher by just his presence alone. This made Lance wonder if he would also have such a presence if he were to ever reach the same heights as the dean.
"The reason the dean's presence may have made the both of you even sweat, is because he used a very special technique us mystics learn later on that allows us to take part of a demonic beast's essence and merge its bloodline with ours in order to further increase our power." Thomas told the two as he brought them towards the male and female dorms towards the other side of the school yard.
"In his case, the dean was able to come across an ancient phoenix type demonic beast on one of his travels, and with his great karmic luck, he was able to defeat it and take part of its essence. However, Lance you may find it difficult to find a demonic beast who is of the light elemental affinity, so I wouldn't worry about such matters until you are strong enough to eventually leave the Sun Dynasty."
"As for you Samantha, if you become strong enough and either join a guild or the army, you will have an easier time. Water element users are very rare, but water element demonic beasts aren't very difficult to find even in our Sun Dynasty. So as long as you train hard, such alluring benefits of joining a strong organization will automatically come with each offer."
"Now, Samantha this is the female dorms and here if your room's key and information. The dean may be open to accepting students that reach a smaller requirement, but until we recruit enough students, you can actually have the room entirely to yourself." Thomas told Samantha as he handed her a key and a piece of paper.

"As for you Lance, here is yours and the male dorms are right over there. As for your schedules, classes will start tomorrow morning. For new students such as yourselves, it is mandatory to attend every class. As you both show more promise, a special training regiment will be provided by the dean and the teachers which may allow for attending less classes and focusing more on other aspects of training."
"Food will be provided for every meal at the cafeteria which is that building over there. So on that note, you both can start unpacking your things in your rooms and I will see you both at breakfast tomorrow. At that time, I will be giving you both class schedules." after taking the time to explain these things, Thomas finally took his leave so that he could receive his reward for recruiting two students.

8 74Force Majeure: A web novel
In the Qursan Empire, the grey walls of the city press down on its subjects. It is a highly divided society which is based on the magical strength of its citizens. While the most powerful are trained as Mages, the majority of citizens use their limited skills with essence to power the city in their assigned jobs. Jano is pretty much the lowest of the low in the Qursan Empire. A Class Ten citizen forced into transitory work after having his power restricted. When he gets the opportunity to change all of that, he takes it with both hands. Please note this is an edited version of my story ‘city of captives’. It follows a similar structure but I’ve ironed out some of the kinks. If you read that version, much of this will be similar though there are some differences. This is a slow burning progression fantasy. Please expect at least two chapters per week. I love writing this story but I do have unfortunate things to deal with like work and life outside of writing. I may be able to write and edit more than that, but it will never be less!
