I read the article. Well, I say the the the article but it was more like a letter because of how short it was. And also it said it was a letter in the beginning. Here is what it said: ”This Article is meant to inform you, my dear students of the basics that every Lazarus agent has to know. This will be enchanting or putting your magic in an object, constructing, the art of making objects or constructs, and Allying, working with creatures who share your magical ability

After that, you spend four weeks of hellish training with, and then you go on your first mission. Be warned however that the missions will be very dangerous and if you are ever about to give out any information regarding the Lazarus Agency like where we are located or such, I shall be forced to render you brain dead in the blink of an eye.” it was at this moment I began to get a feeling of how serious this will be.

I could die. It could be a lie but at the same time, I briefly shuddered and tried my best to not think any more of the thorny more for continuing, ”You will also be traveling across the country or in some cases across the world. Your main mission is to let the world never know that magic is real. If a single one of you is to fail n that regard, the world will be incomplete chaos and you will be executed via brazen bull. But even though this may all be very sudden to you, please calm down. We do not care how much you don't want this life. You have to protect the civilians from magical acts of terror, or MATs. There are roughly 30 other independent organizations like ours, and that's not counting the hundreds of sub-departments focused on magic like the Paranormal intelligence ( PAINT) from very own CIA. But even with all that, there are still many dangers with regard to magic. And since it's something so mysterious even psychic mages cant understand it without having a mental break, there is no way to tell it's limited and we must always be on the uneasy side in a mission because union in our field of work is the difference between life and death.~Sincerely Ms.Hollyhocks. ”

I took a sigh upon finishing the article. It was done. It was over. I could give up now.

I looked around the room at the other kids. They much like me had very concerned and scared faces. Zhou ordered everyone to get into a line and walk over to him slowly? I lowered my brow. Did I hear him right? Yes, I did. So slowly I and a bunch of other kids got into a line and walked over to Zhou. Me feeling the most confused stood in the bac.

Suddenly I heard the unmistakable sound of lighting hitting something. Followed by a shockwave careening me into the ground. It was a bad thing I was in the back as all the other kids were also flying back they were Heading right for me. Instincts took over me and I kicked the ground and was propelled into the corner of a wall. It was so fast it was near-instant Immenear-instant my speed stopped I began to feel incredible pain in my Legs. The pain was like I had just done a hundred sit-ups

That was sit-ups since the distance from the line I was in and the corner of a wall was wide enough to fit two long jumps.S sorry if that sentence sounded weird but it's the best I got. There was another sudden explosion of lighting from the front of where the line one was. After the lightning calmed down, I saw Zhou standing right where the Lightning had been.

He had a confused look on his face. ”Oops sorry, I always forget that you're not immune to my lighting travel maybe I should just do the test here. The kid standing next to him had spiky hair. No doubt from the lightning. The kid slowly closed his eyes and fainted. Zhou looked at him and muttered to himself. Suddenly Zhou raised a single finger to the unconscious kid and what happened next shocked me to my very core. He shot out a blast of lightning at the kid and he vanished. My mouth went agape as I realized what had just happened. Zhou had killed him!
