《I should care because?》First Day of School (edited)
Advertisement
I stared blankly at the new school. I was now 10, and the other kids were staring at me. Probably because I was just too beautiful. Yes of course, I'm not the only beautiful person here, but of course I am a beautiful weak person. Ah no, not really, perhaps they can feel something I can't, because isn't there a slight trace of fear in their eyes hidden under their disgust?
I watched my cousin, or sister, run towards the school with a bright smile on her face and excitment glittering in her eyes. All the students in the area turned their heads to look at her, many of the boys blushed. Ah, she was very cute wasn't she.
I followed behind her, a book in my hand. Although most attention was on my sister, there was some on me as well. I suppose some people just have a heightened sense of danger, though what they are afraid of, I am not sure yet.
Class' POV
A few minutes ago
"Class, we have to new students joining us today, please be nice to them," the teacher said to a bunch of uninterested children. That was when the heroine decided to enter her new class, her hair was tied in a pony tail, bouncing as she excitedly entered the classroom. The class was enchanted as the cheerful little girl entered the classroom, perhaps it was her bright aura or her innocent looks, but they were absolutly enchanted. Except of course, for the girl sleeping in the back of the classroom, seemingly having no care at all in the world.
"Hello! My name is Angel Pendegraft! Please take care of me," she said with a bright smile. Her big blue eyes shining with excitement, making many boys and girls blushed. Ah, being too cute was really a sin.

"Ah, this ones name is Silence," the teacher said, stepping in after the other student didn't say anything for a few minutes. The whole class stared at her curiously, there were of course rumors to say that Silence was ugly as she never really showed up in any public events. Of course, those rumors also went hand in hand with the saying that she was simply too beautiful. Afterall, with her parent's looks, it would be rather odd for her to be ugly.
Now, seeing her there, they decided that she truly wasn't that ugly.
"I heard that she doesn't have much magic," a girl whispered to her friend.
"Did you know that she's so weak that she would collapse if a bird landed on her."
"Really?" the girl behind her said, "saying she's weak is fine. But saying she would collapse if a bird landed on her? Are birds really that fat and heavy?"
Nothing of course, came from their gossip. Truly, they were rude enough to talk in front of her. What were they waiting for, a reaction from her? To half the class' dissapointment, and the other half's utter joy, she didn't say anything.
The teacher glared at the students, sadly they were really too high up for her to say anything. Woe me, why must a teacher like me suffer these grieviances?
"Don't be so mean to my sister," Angel reprimanded the class before looking at Silence, as if looking for approval. Silence just looked at her, as if saying, 'you really didn't have to do that you know?'
Angel puffed her cheeks, "at least thank me."
Silence continued to stare, before patting Angel's head and walking away. What can she say, truly too much like her sister from thousands of years ago. Though her hand was freezing cold, it really brought warmth to Angel's heart and she giggled.

"You can sit in any emptry seats," the teacher said with a slight grin. The previous actions were truly heart warming. How close the sisters were, if only he himself had siblings as well, he would definantly spoil them to death.
"Okay!" Angel cheerfully said, almost tripping when she reached the chair, "Eeep!" she said, before faintly blushing. Some of the guys fainted, many had nosebleeds. The girls stared at them weirdly, re-evaluating their characters.
Another girl laughed at their reaction, laughin to the point where her face turned read. The teacher merely raised his eyebrow, this was indeed a questionable sight to see.
The girls wanted to squish her cheeks. Even the cold prince had the urge to pat her head. This girl, was very deadly. Then his hypocritical mind started thinking about the reason why she chose to sit near him. Perhaps she was a spy, assassin, maybe his parents were setting them up for marriage.... finally, he decided that the reason was that it was really the only seat left in the classroom.
The teacher seemed to remember about the other student, then again, the other student already sat down so he shrugged.
In the meanwhile, Silence felt irritated at the commotion going on about her. 'Children these days' she thought to herself.
"Silence! Pay attention!" the teacher called out a few minutes later. Then paused, this girl liked to read. The probability of her learning what he was going to teach was 70%. Ah well, if she didn't want to learn then it had nothing to do with him.
'Rude' the class silently thought to themselves. Not realizing that they were rude themselves.
Like this, the matter passed and the class got used to the new students. It became the envy of the other classes, why couldn't their classes have as much drama as this one? Many others were also glad that they didn't have that class, how irritating would it be for them for their classes to be interrupted for stupid reasons.
So, Silence's days passed on...rather loudly.

8 139Unique Fusion Magic Hex
World Essence. The mysterious energy coursing throughout the entire land of Vor'ten, and very possibly the entire world. This energy has allowed humanity to flourish, building great empires and vast kingdoms, conquering nature itself with just a sweep of their hand. Humans were the strongest existence, and with the help of channeling this World Essence, many were able to turn into Magic Knights, gaining magical abilities to combat the various fierce beasts throughout the lands.Alas... those glory days of old were long gone. Humanity has now been pushed to the brink of destruction, and now the remaining members of the human race are encased within giant domes known as 'Alkkras', made with the last remaining bits of the World Essence. It was said that those giant domes were the last gifts left by the remnants of the ancient human race, as a means to protect the future generation from the attacks of the many wild beasts roaming outside. Five Spiritualist Invokers, all combined together, used the last bit of the World Essence and sacrificed their lives to lay a gigantic, 1028-seal formation magic array to form these barriers, forever saving humanity, but also trapping humanity within these barriers.However, the humans were never completely helpless. No matter how little World Essence was left, the humans still had some remaining. Realizing the incoming crisis, the humans found a way to seal World Essence inside a special type of crystal. Soon, these crystals began to become implanted into weapons, turning them into World Essence Weapons, and they began to display properties of their own. Extreme heat. Bone chilling cold. Absurd sharpness. These normal weapons, after being imbued with the energy of the World Essence Crystals, began to form natural affinities to elements. Fire. Water. Earth. Wind. Darkness. Light. Using these weapons, one could become a Chevalier that wielded the power of the elements.However, if one wanted to reach a higher level of enlightenment and understanding, one could become an Invoker. Via the study of magic array formations, one could directly use the power of the World Essence to cast devastating magics upon the enemy. These people were Invokers, highly valued for their combat potential by the Army. These weapons and magical arrays were used in the great fight between the humans and the beasts long ago. They had long since been put away in storage, almost long forgotten...However, after ten-thousand years of suppression, the human race is beginning its counterattack against the Beasts... Synth was an Invoker in the Magecroft Academy. However, his talent was terrible, being only at the Spark Stage. This led to him being looked down upon and bullied. He was unable to cast any Calamity-rank or even Destruction rank spells, and was only able to cast Coalescing rank spells at the age of 17, a record low in the academy for cultivating these rare Invokers. Even though he put in more effort than anyone else, he was still unable to advance his Channeling Energy. But due to his constant research and study, Synth ended up creating a power that would go against the heavens - he had found how to Fuse spells together. After trying it out once, merging the magical array for the Small Fireball and the Mortal Judgement skills, he was able to create a mid-rank Destruction tier spell, Holy Judgement Flame. However, after this, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to fuse more spells together or even cast them, and noticed a weird, pentagram shaped formation on his left arm. He would later call this mark the Fusion Magic Hex, a curse that prevented the wielder from casting magic that wasn't their own...This meant that with the exception of Synth's newly created skill, , he was going to have to create unique magic arrays if he ever wanted to step on the path of becoming an Invoker! This power that destroyed the laws of the Invoking System, and his unyielding persistence in testing and creating new spells, would later gain Synth the nickname the Unique Fusion Hex, and lead him to become one of the strongest beings in the entire World!
