《The Magical Workman》The Magical Workman Chapter 10: Actually Starting Classes
Advertisement
Needless to say won't be posting much in the next two weeks because of finals and other stuff, but after these two weeks are over it will shoot off.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I turned around to see what I assumed was a teacher walk up to me.
“My god, how much magical power do you have little child”
“Umm I don’t know”
“Well….. Ok make sure not to hurt yourself or anyone else”
Said the teacher as he walked away with an expression of disbelief
I turned around once again only to find myself getting hugged by someone.
“I’m sorry I didn’t believe you”
Lilia said hugging me even harder.
“It’s fine, just please…… let me go”
I managed to squeeze out even though I could barely breathe.
“Well, what classes do you have? Are you in intermediate classes?”
Said Lilia as she pulled out her class schedule
I pulled out mine right after her and waalaa we both had the same exact classes.
“Cool how about we go to our first class together”
Lilia put her hand into mine and practically started to drag me forward in the direction of classes.
—————————————————————————————
We got to our first class shortly after. It was intermediate casting. Lilia and I sat down in some back row seats right next each other and chatted about home life a few minutes, waiting for our teacher.
Apparently her father was a high ranking noble of the Yiracan kingdom. She had four brothers, and two sisters, two brothers and both sisters were already at this academy.
I didn’t really learn anything else but I did talk to her about my family and living condition.
As we were talking students filed in occasionally filling up the rest of the seats, and a little bit later the teacher finally came in.

He was a tall fat man. Very greedy looking and greasy with sweat and human oils.
He didn’t teach us anything to today but talked about casting theory and magic theory and such.
Basically that’s how every one of my classes went that day.
Getting in with Lilia, talking a bit well waiting for the teacher, and listening to theory from the teacher. We didn’t actually learn anything whatsoever today.
My day ended with me going back to my dorm room and falling asleep
————————————————————————————-
The second day was almost exactly like the first minus the crashing pillar and it was in all honestly the most boring thing I ever experienced in both of my lives.
But then the third day we finally started to learn basic magic.
I got into class and sat down at a desk and saved the seat next to me for Lilia. She came, sat down, and we casually talked waiting for the teacher.
The teacher came through the door as the last of the students settled down in their seats.
This time though instead of talking about theory he told us to get into a meditative position on top of our desks.
“So what you need to is relax and feel for the mana inside your body, become one with the mana and when you do open your eyes to signify that you’re done. Most people won’t even get it well into their 20th time meditating so don’t worry about not feeling it today or even the next several times”
Honestly I wasn’t surprised when I immediately felt my mana pool as my mana pool was immensely massive, but other than me no one felt their mana pool all throughout that day (All our teacher made us meditate).
The fourth day however in casting class a few others broke through and became one with their mana pool. Even Lilia broke through, I was honestly happy for her and told her that, which made her blush deep red.

Instead of making us wait he made the rest of the meditators go to the back of the room well he taught us quietly in the front about magic casting.
In short most spells require a chant or a shortened chant, although there are some rare individuals that can use voice-less chanting, to use, as this allows the mana to shape itself into that spell in controlled amounts. If you didn’t use a chant or had voice-less chanting, you could still use the spell, but with the big risk it could go out of control, with small spells this wasn’t a problem but big spells could kill the caster absorbing all his/her mana or kill many other individuals that get caught in the spell.
He then taught us the most basic spells which didn’t require chanting, as they were too small to go out of control, but instead for us to imagine the spell in our minds.
He told us about a basic light spell, and a basic fire spell.
Needless to say it didn’t exactly work out when I tried it. Instead of a small lighter sized amount of fire that was supposed to happen, there was a fireball the size of watermelon in my hands that accidently got released and caught the classroom on fire, oopsie.

The Unsorcerer
DISCLAIMER: The cover pic is not my original work. Credits goes to the Illustrator. This is a story of a man named Cipher, a 21st Century man reincarnated in a world where magic is the way of life. In the continent of Iarica, the people of this land are able to wield the crystals or magic stones for whatever purpose they desire. These people are called "Sorcerers", blessed individuals who are favored by the Gods and gifted with an ability to manipulate "Mana", the energy of the World and the energy source that makes all of the machines run. Cipher in contrast, is not. He is an "Unsorcerer", a person unable to wield the crystals and mana and eventually magic itself. Because of this "defect", he is shunned, ridiculed, and abused by most people and eventually by the whole society. Little did Iarica and her denizens know, this so-called reject of society is more than what he seems... Note: This humble Author-san is not a native English speaker, so there will be grammatical errors. Also the chapters are short, about 1K words. However I will try my best efforts on reaching the 2k-4k words threshold. Another note is that this will be a Harem fic, so to anyone who are not fan of the genre this may not be your cup of tea. Any criticsm are welcome as long it can help me to improve my writing skills since I'm just a newcomer in this scene.

(Author's note: I've had writers block on this for a while but recently hired a professional editor. I don't think it will be much longer before I have new chapters. A cover is also in discussion. I won't just drop it. Thanks to Papillion for the cover!!!)

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.

I would also appreciate any corrections or suggestions.
