"What do you mean you can't write...?"-Headmaster
"Well..."-Lucca
Lucca started to explain that he knew only certain things. From the select few books that his mother had, he could only learn so far. Of course with his mother being a Magical Beast, she couldn't teach him how to write. But she oddly enough knew how to do arithmetic and read. So she taught those things to Lucca. Other then that, Lucca only knows small parts of history of Ferald and knows only how to respect nobles and how to interact with them. Of course Lucca knew magic but he didn't fully understand it plus to Lucca, he always thought magic was something nobles did. It was written in the many books that he read from that only nobles used magic but those books where written centuries ago. So the information from those books where not up to date.
"I see. That explains a lot. So I was right to question your knowledge earlier."-Headmaster
"Hahahah...."-Lucca
"Then that just means we need to add writing lessons to your after noon classes."-Headmaster
"...Excuse me?"-Lucca
"If you can't write then we will teach you. Looking at your skills earlier, that probably won't be a problem. You just have to spend more time at school then the rest of the students." -Headmaster
Taking the paper, the Headmaster signed the bottom of the page.
"With that you are part of the academy."-Headmaster
"So I can join...?"-Lucca
"Yes my boy. Welcome to Zelphon Academy."-Headmaster
The Headmaster smiled at Lucca as his eyes started to sparkle. He was a student at the school his master wanted for him to attend. A place where he can finally show his potential.
"Now let me get a teacher to show you around the school. Tomorrow you will start lessons with the new first year students of class A."-Headmaster
The Headmaster got up and opened the door.
"Felia? Can you please come in."-Headmaster
Felia came in just like the wind.
"Can you take Lucca and guide him through the school? He will be part of Class A of the first year students."-Felia
"Guide me...?Wait this little girl is a teach-"-Lucca
"Who is a little girl?!"-Felia
Quickly chanting under her breath before Lucca could notice, Felia casted her spell. She lifted him in air and started to choke him. It was like she had another hand.
"For your information I am not a little girl! I am a grown woman!"-Feia

"gaghugakg"-Lucca
Lucca was stuck in the air struggling as Felia ranted on and on. Sighing, the Headmaster put an hand on Felia.
"Now now. Felia, what is our rule?"-Headmaster
"N-Not to hurt the students sir..."-Felia
"Then would you please put him down?"-Headmaster
"Certainly sir..."-Felia
Letting out a humpf, Felia let go of her magic grip on Lucca and Lucca fell down to the ground. Gasping for air, Lucca sat on the ground coughing. The Headmaster put a hand on his face and sighed even more.
"Make sure you take him around the school and not harm him this time Felia."-Headmaster
"Yes sir..."-Felia
"Good. Are you okay to go on with the trip Lucca?"-Headmaster
Panting, Lucca managed to say a few words.
"..Y...Yes...Sir..."-Lucca
"Splendid. Now I must get to my afternoon meeting. I hope to see you in the future Lucca."-Headmaster
And with that the Headmaster left. Lucca slowly started to get up from the ground as Felia walked to him.
"Come on. I don't have all day you know."-Felia
Lucca stared at Felia with eyes of shock.
What is wrong with this girl?
He thought has he followed her. He didn't want to risk making her mad again. Felia lead Lucca through many hallways. Lucca was starting to memorize the hallways they been to making a small mental map in his mind. Up till now Lucca could never do that. That shocked him a little but he felt like it great to have so he wouldn't be lost.
"Zelphon Academy takes pride in the many facilities it can supply to its students. Of course the courses taken by a student depends what class they are in. Since you are in class A, that means you will be under my jurisdiction."-Felia
Felia started to explain how the academy works.
First came the classes. Depending on what class depends what courses you are allowed to take. The highest class was class A. B,C,D, and E soon follow after. Depending on magical talent or fighting skills, students are placed in those classes.
"Seeing how you are placed in my class, that means you have either a strong talent for magic or amazing fighting skills. It can't be fighting skills because you look like a wimp so I am guessing it's magic."-Felia
"Hahahaha..."-Lucca
"Anyways, Like I said before. The type of courses you can take depends on your class."-Felia
Higher the class you are, the many options of courses will open up to you. So for Class A, they receive that best courses for that year. Ranging from the best fighting and magic instructors to the most famous art and academic teachers. The courses range done from there from B-E classes.
"And finally since the courses are done by a this academies secretary unit. So you will choose your courses tomorrow. For now I can show you those courses and where they are. Anything else, you can find out from your roommates from your dorm... Oy why did you get quiet all of a sudden. I can't even hear your fo-"-Felia

Turning around to look a Lucca, Felia only found a blank space. Felia had lost him. And on the first day too.
"W...Wha...What?!"-Felia
Felia screamed as she ran around looking for him. Currently Lucca was in the hallway that Felia left him in. He got distracted by a certain painting of a bear. It looked like Mother B a lot so he couldn't keep his eyes off of it. Once he returned his gaze, she was all ready gone. Gulping, Lucca started to think what to do.
If I go back to the Headmaster's room then she would find me there right?
With nowhere else to go, Lucca decided to just head back to the Headmasters the same way he came with Felia. He walked down a couple corridors till he finally stopped due to a sound. It sounded like shouting. Turning towards the window. Out side the window was a courtyard. It looked like a place to practice because it had wooden planks standing straight out of the ground on the far end. In the middle of the courtyard where two groups of people. These two groups where wearing different type of clothing. One side was wearing complete white suits with what it seemed to look like ties and had silver necklaces on their necks. On the other side , they wore a a black tracksuit. One of the members on the black side was wearing a complete set of armor which shined black. The person the armor appeared to be bald.
"Oh look! It seems the trash want to pick a fight every one!"
The people wearing white all laughed at this one persons remark. The person who spoke looked like a young man with long blonde hair that swept to the middle of his back. He had a face that would have made many girls fall for him but to guys, it looked like a piece of complete jerk material. The blonde man smirked.
"Oh that's funny come a person who acts like a little baby to his father Falk."
"Why you little! I don't act like a baby! If you have to say what I act like, I am more like a majestic Rise Bird then anything trash!"-Falk
"It's not trash you little snot nose brat! It's Tolton!"-Tolton
"Who are you calling a brat? We are the same age! I swear trash never know their place!"-Falk
"Really now? You know I couldn't tell that we where the same age. You always acted like a spoiled little brat."-Tolton
Now this time the black side started to snicker.
"Oy trash. It looks like you want to get your self killed."-Falk
"Bring it on if you can daddies boy."-Tolton
Smirking at Falk, Tolton just insulted him more. Enraged Falk chanted quickly under his breath. Small parts of ice started to form around his hand.
"Don't blame me if you die trash!"-Falk
"Back at you daddies boy!"-Tolton
Tolton slammed his hands together and chanted under his breath too. Soon flames started to form around his armor as they blazed his fist. Falk didn't even give Tolton time to get ready to fight has he formed his magical ice shard and shot it at him. Taking a step back, Tolton hit the side of the ice shard, melting it into pieces. Falk ran to the left of Tolton chanting.
"By the depths of the colds, my enemies shall perish. Icicle Parade!"-Fall
A huge mass of ice shards formed and flew at Tolton none stop. Seeing this, Tolton slammed down on the ground. This made the flames on Tolton's hands swipe down on the shards, melting them. But it wasn't enough has he got hit by a few of them. Making sure he didn't get hit hard, Tolton ran a couple steps back.
"I am not going to let you run away! By the depths of the colds, my enemies shall perish. Icicle Parade!"-Falk
More ice shards shot at Tolton but this time Tolton was prepared.
"Shatter before the mighty flame, all shall fall to ruin. Inferno Wave!"-Tolton
Pulling his hands back, Tolton casted the magic on his hands has he swung both of his hands. He slashed the air like a cross, sending a blast of fire magic straight at Falk. Cursing Falk dodged to the left but his foot got caught.
"Augh!!" -Falk
Wow magic is amazing... I thought the teleportation magic was amazing but this is also. I won- wait. What is that? Is that coming towards me? OH N-
Before Lucca could finish his thought, the Inferno Wave from before continued till it hit the window that Lucca was looking through. Due to the force of the blast, Lucca was knocked back has he went flying on the other side of the hallway into a room. The door closed right behind him as he landed. Rubbing his back, Lucca slowly got up to check his surroundings.
"Where am I...?"-Lucca
He stared at the room but there was nothing but a magic formation under his feet.
"Wait. A magic formation. Doesn't that mean...? No way no way. To use the magic formation you need to use magic. That's what Master said. I guess I am okay."-Lucca
Lucca sighed in relieve. He looked around for the door till he finally found it. Taking one step towards the door, the magic formation started to shine. Seeing light appear under his feet, Lucca tilted his head.
"Wait... It's glowing... Doesn't that mean...!"-Lucca
Trying to run out of the formation, Lucca was teleported with out even giving a fight. There was no trace of Lucca to be seen.

8 107Duality
“Listen closely for this is our oldest tale… In the beginning there was peace and knowledge throughout our land… The creatures of old roamed these lands… Evil had yet to spread through our land… A rift in the very fabric of reality formed… The land burned and melted as the creatures stepped through… As the most advanced civilization… We took the mantle to combat… By the time we were able to gather half the world had already been lain bare… The war covered the once peaceful land in death and destruction… During this time humanity's greatest light arose…” Monologued the old man, red in the face from passionately spewing his praises of a past he had no part of. Written by two authors, this novel covers the tale of a pair of protagonists in a wuxia world. Oh, and maybe an isekai or two. Our goal with this project is to make an engaging and entertaining story, while making a good attempt at a somewhat realistic wuxia setting. We’re aware of the oxymoron…
