《The Magic Kings War》A Vital Lesson
Advertisement
Magic Duel Arc.
Valoran has won the duel. A duel is also called the "impossible duel".
" THE WINNER IS VALORAN SILVER. EARNING A NEW RECORD OF 20 POINTS"-The commentator says.
The crowd is cheering.....
"YAYYY!!!!"
There are hundreds of thousands of cherry blossoms flying around the stadium carried by the wind.
Vedika is filled with excitement and breaks into tears as she sees this beautiful site as it reminds her of a tragic past.
Valoran then notices her tears gradually pouring down her cheeks.
He crouches down.....
"Vedika what's the reason for your sadness?"-Valoran asks.
Vedika wipes her tears and responds...
"My papa and I used to watch cheery blossoms bloom in the spring. They were his favourites just like myself...I just thought... would have enjoyed the sight you created"-Vedika says sadness.
Both Everlyn (Vedikas mother) and Mary (Vedikas older sister) also begin to shed tears.
"Ohh Vedika"-Both Everlyn and Mary say in sadness.
"Vedika...Wipe the tears this is not the time to be sad. Your father would not want you to be filled with sadness."-Valoran says.
Vedika looks up at Valoran and continues to listen...
"Your father would be proud just as much as I am and your mother and sister." -Valoran says.
"Proud?"-Vedika asks in confusion.
" Yes. Today you were brave. Despite your young age, you became my partner and during the duel, you remained calm and had a nice big smile. Many individuals who are far older and more experienced would have been paralysed in fear and yet you did not.
Your strength is something unique. Something many strive toward"-Valoran explains.
"Thank you Valoran"-Vedika says.
"Promise me. Never lose that strength of yours."-Valoran says.
" I will."-Vedika says with a bright smile.
Valoran then carries Vedika on his right shoulder and both of them wave at the crowd.
Vedika's tears are gone and are replaced with a smile so bright not even the sun comes close to it. She and Valoran wave toward the crowd.
"I am taking you back to your family now"-Valoran says.
Valoran carries Vedika back to her Mother and Sister.
When he arrives both of them hug her and are proud of her daughter.
" Ohh Vedika. I am glad you are safe"-Everlyn says.
"I am so proud of you the fact you wanted to be his partner" -Mary says.
Valoran smiles...
"I have a final surprise for you"-Valoran says.
Valoran then uses creation magic and out of thin air he created a beautiful, cherry blossom bouquet.
Vedika is filled with joy and gratitude.
"Is this for me?"-Vedika asks.
"Indeed."-Valoran replies.
"Thank you Valoran"-Everlyn replies.
Valoran hands the bouquet to Vedika and holds his hand above the bouquet and a magic circle appears as the bouquet is illuminated by a green light for a few seconds.

" What did you do?"-Vedika asks curiously.
"I blessed them with life. That bouquet will be like this for hundreds and hundreds of years. Those cherry blossoms will not rot away for a long long time. I've blessed them with millennia of life"-Valoran says.
" Thank you your kindness is beyond anyone we ever had the pleasure of meeting"-Mary says while blushing a little.
Valoran smiles and makes his way back to the arena where he finds Merial and her teammates exhausted.
When Valoran makes his way back to the arena he tries to teach Merial an important lesson.
"Y-You aren't human aren't you?"-Merial asks breathing heavily.
" You are correct. I am no human"-Valoran replies.
"Why have you come back?.... Is it to look down upon us?"-Merial asks again in anger and breathing heavily.
"No. This is not my intention."-Valoran replies.
" Then why are you here?"-Merial replies.
"To teach you and your team a vital lesson"-Valoran replies.
" What lesson?"-Merial says frustrated.
"Merial do you understand the true meaning of being the Magic King?"-Valoran asks.
"Of course. It's to use your strength to rule the weaker ones"-Merial replies.
Valoran looks at her with a sad expression and closes his eyes for a second.
He opens them and replies with...
" No. Being the Magic King is about protecting the weak. Using your great power and knowledge to help the ones who can't help themselves"-Valoran replies.
"How would you know that"-Merial replies.
" 4000 Years ago. The last Magic King challenged the gods with the greatest army in the history of the mortal race.
The Magic King knew that he would lose, he knew that angels were already too powerful for any mortal. He knew that once the gods joined the battle that it would mean his end"-Valoran says.
"Why are you telling me this?"-Merial asks.
" Why do you think the mortals joined him? They also knew full well that they would die"-Valoran asks.
"Because the Magic King forced them to"-Merial replies.
" No. All the mortals chose to fight by his side. Because they believed in him. The Magic King was said to be kind to his people, no matter the race they belonged to. No matter how weak they were. No matter if they were rich or poor. All those factors didn't matter to him. He protected everyone with his power. That's why when the Magic King challenged the gods the mortals followed him due to loyalty and belief"-Valoran says.
Merial is stunned to hear that she looks at Valoran and sees no lie.
"Merial your power is great. So is your magical knowledge. I've never seen anyone besides myself who could manipulate vectors. (Her controlling the magnitude and direction of the photons (light) to focus them in a single laser beam). I was impressed. Develop that skill, and then one day just like me you can control the direction of sub-atomic particles"-Valoran says.

Merial is shocked to hear Valoran despite being much more powerful than her and her teammates combined be so kind and do not resort to bullying her.
" Why is he so kind?... All. my life I was bullied for my weakness"-Merial thinks to herself.
(Flashback)
A young Merial studying magic...
When three boys approach her... (1 human and 2 demons)
"Look at her. Give it up you will never be as strong as we are."-The human boy says.
"Yeah. Your Magic is weak."-One of the demon boys says.
" Leave me alone"-Young Merial says.
The human boy casts water elemental magic.
This gets her wet from head to toe.
"Why would you do that?"-Young Merial asks crying.
" Ohh look what you did I'll dry her off"-The other demon child says.
He then casts fire elemental magic all-around young Merial.
This caused her to be frightened.
"Please don't hurt me"-Young Merial begs.
"Hahaha"-The three boys laugh at her.
The three boys then leave.
" I swear I'll make them pay"-Young Merial thought to herself.
With that Merial throughout the years studied magic filled with revenge in her mind and the ones she defeated in battle.
One day she faced those three and defeated them in battle.
"How is that? Weaklings. Hahaha"-Merial laughs at the three boys.
" Please don't hurt us"-The human boy begs.
"Don't ever challenge me again. You're so weak"-Merial says.
(Present day)
Merial realises what she has become.
"I became a bully. I became someone I hate"-Merial says to Valoran.
" You are not a bad person. You knew that none of your attacks would kill me or injure me. If they would have, you would have not cast them, to begin with"-Valoran says.
"Your right. From the moment I saw you...blocking Kanan's attack like that my magic eyes saw pure power. However, my eyes have many abilities one of them is to see the very aura of a person which shows me how powerful they are. Your aura seems average... in fact, I would say below average and yet your power is nothing I've ever seen"-Merial says.
" Your magic eye and intelligence are impressive. I will answer your question as a reward."-Valoran says.
Merial then looks curiously at Valoran.
"I suppress my power as close to 0. That includes my aura. I conceal my aura with magic. This is necessary for everyone's protection...If anyone were to glare at even one-millionth of my true aura you would go insane, fear would dominate your mind, and you would have the urge to end your life"-Valoran explains.
Merial is speechless but she knows that it is the truth based on the fight with Valoran.
"How can such a being exist?... And with all that power he never abuses it for his personal gain or destroys everything with no problem"-Merial thought to herself.
"Merial."-Valoran says.
She faces Valoran.
" Promise me. Get stronger and use your strength to help the weak and never look down upon them"-Valoran says.
Merial opens her eyes wide.
"I promise"-Merial says breathing heavily still exhausted from the duel.
Valoran casts healing magic on Merial and her teammates.
Within a second they healed from all their wounds and exhaustion.
Valoran stretches his hand out to help Merial back on her feet.
She blushes a little while holding his hand as he pulls her back up from the ground.
" Remember Merial. It's the weak who look down upon the weaker ones. Only the weak require satisfaction by praying on the ones who can not defend themselves"-Valoran says.
Merial is stunned and amazed at not just Valorans power but also wisdom despite his age.
"Thank you Valoran, for opening my eyes to the true meaning of strength and the true understanding of the Magic King. You are a wise man."-Merial says.
Valoran smiles a little toward Merial and leaves the arena.
Valoran meets with his team at the student searing area of the Arena.
Immediately Valoran is met with praises from his friends.
" Wow I knew you were amazing but this just blew my mind."-Selina says.
"Didn't you show off just a little too much Valoran?"-Artemsia asks.
"I am also impressed at your power"-Biatrix said.
Valoran then notices Atticus being a little saddened.
" Atticus you did amazing. Your strength and speed will only improve soon very soon you will be able to take on Kanan with no issue. I will make sure that all of you will be able to defend yourself easily against anyone"-Valoran says.
"Don't forget about me. I will be supporting you with their training"-Artemsia says.
The commentator then takes the stage.
" AFTER THIS INCREDIBLE DUEL HALIVAARA IS AHEAD BY 17 POINTS. THE NEXT MATCH WILL BE SELINA ATLANTIA AND BIATRIX ALSTON FROM THE FIRST GROUP OF THE HALIVAARA ACADEMY AGAINST MELIOS AND LEON KALDOR FROM HALIVAARA SECOND ACADEMY. THIS WILL BE THE FINAL DUEL FOR THE DAY"
Both Selina and Biatrix make their way to their way to the Arena.
"Good luck"-Valoran, Artemsia and Atticus wish upon the both of them.
They arrive to meet two demon students.
" ARE YOU ALL READY?-The commentator asks.
The crowd cannot wait for the duel to begin and cheer on and on.
"YAYYY!!!"
"If everyone is ready and let's get this duel started" - The narrator says.
"3,2,1 begin!" -The commentator says.

Callum had seen things all his life. There are monsters and beasts living among people, but he learned very early not to admit such things, not if he didn’t want people to think him crazy. It turns out that the supernatural is real, but at thirty Callum has no desire to be part of that secret. Not that he has a choice when it turns out he is a mage, albeit one that hasn’t cast any spells in all his life.

After escaping from the Guild of Arcane Regulation and the Bureau of Secret Enforcement, Callum has lost his greatest protection: his obscurity. Now the powers that be know who he is, and hiding is harder than ever. Nor is hiding a plan, just a reaction. Now Callum is forced to decide how he wants to approach the supernatural world, and how he’s going to keep himself secure when the apparatus of government is arrayed against him. Even if he wanted to live as a mage, that bridge has been thoroughly burned, and even if he wanted to live as a normal person, he is far too deep to close his eyes to what he’s seen. He has to make his own terms. Paranoid Mage is an urban fantasy but it goes rather sideways from the normal stuff fairly quickly.
