Alright so I have wanted to see a story using Negi as Louis' familiar for a long time. I will do my best to maintain the mythos of both universes, and to stay true to the stories. Some things to note, Negi has the artifact from the tomboy princess. He can use his partners artifacts. Negi is intended as an OP character. This takes place with future Asuna, the one that has slept already. I do not know the spell chants for Negi. To indicate the spellcasting, "Ras tel ma scrir Magister" will be used. If it is being absorbed it will be followed with Dextra Emitam.
Chapters will likely be short. I am not an experienced writer, and this is my first fic. Please understand that the style will grow with me as a build the story.
Other than that remember, I own nothing.
Review please and Enjoy.
Negi and Asuna had received a request to meet Evangeline in her villa, something about a test of some sort for the two of them. The discussion turns towards the worse as the two speculate on the nature of the test. Before long, they quickly arrive at the cottage and proceed into the villa. Upon arrival they hear "Best to be getting ready for combat, I have some new ideas on some teaching techniques, and I want to try them out."
"Shit" can be heard muttered under the breath of the two trainees.
Eva sets up for combat training, and starts to attack them. As Asuna engages Eva in combat
"Ras tel ma scrir magister … Duplex complexio"
With the chant finally completed, Negi seems to disappear and reappear behind Eva instantaneously. Upon touching her, "Dextra Emitam" can be heard as a giant spear of lightning appears to pierce Evas body. Her body vanishes and appears on the other side of Asuna, impacting her into Negi. As they both go flying backwards, a green portal appears behind them. Upon contacting the surface of the portal, Negi feels his magic forcefully drained from him. They go flying through the portal and it quickly closes up, leaving Eva wondering just where her apprentices have gone.

"Alright miss Valierie, it is time for you to summon your familiar."
A small pink-haired girl can be seen to gulp. She responds with "Alright Professor Colbert," and approaches a pentagram with many complex runes inscribed on the ground around it.
"Pentagon of the 5 elements I am your servant Louise Francoise Le Blanc de la Valierie and I summon my faithful servant."
As she finishes the chant a massive resounding "BOOOM" can be heard as the area fills with smoke. After a couple of seconds "Ahh Ahhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhh Ahhhhhchooooooo" A loud sneeze is heard and a strong gust of breeze quickly blows the smoke away. Inside the pentagram appears to be a young child.
"Finish the spell Miss Valierie" instructs Professor Colbert, clearly interested in if this is actually a summoned familiar for the first time in history.
"Alright, but I do not believe a human can be summoned" as Louise approaches the boy. "Pentagon of the 5 elements, bind this servant to me as my familiar" chants Louise. She then leans in and much to the boy's apparent shock, kisses him. A bright flash of light erupts from around the pentagram. When the light fades, Louise stands up and the boy grabs his hand, clearly in pain. He starts chanting under his breath "Ras tel ma scrir Magister …"
"Alright students back to class, Louise and her her Familiar with me, we should go talk to the headmaster." Finishes Colbert.
Headmaster, alright I am at some kind of school, thinks Negi. Asuna got pushed into the portal as well, I need to find her, find out where I am, and find some way back home for us. It's the magic world all over again. Next thing I know I am going to end up in the middle of some major crisis. He turns to Louise "Where am I, and what are these runes?"
"You are in Tristain at the academy of magic. You are my familiar commoner, and we are on our way to see the headmaster"
"Good maybe I can get some answers."
"You will be quite and speak when spoken to. Where are you from that the commoners talk to the nobility with such disrespect?"
"I am from Japan most recently."
"Where is that?"
"Very far from here, and if you don't mind I would like to refrain from answering all other inquiries until we are in the presence of the headmaster. I would like to not have to explain the same thing twice."
"Very well."
"So I guess that means I have to wait to ask my questions too?" can be heard as Colbert chimes in.
"Yes"
"Alright"

In the headmaster's office.
Louise and Negi are sitting in the chairs while Colbert stands off to the side. The headmaster is smoking his pipe, to the obvious chagrin of Negi. He takes a long puff and asks, "My name is Osmond, start from the beginning. Who are you, and where are you from?"
"I am Negi Springfield and I hail from Japan. I am a teacher of English at Mahora Girls Academy. I would like to propose a deal for all questions after this, one for one. You ask one I ask one. We go until either side is done, or on if both agree."
"Done. You may start."
"Okay so I gather that I am at the Tristain Academy of Magic, but other than that I know nothing about where I am, so where am I."
"You are in Tristain. What is this English you teach?"
"It's a language. Thanks to the ongoing effects of the translation spell I casted earlier we can understand each other perfectly, so demonstrating it now would be useless."
"Hold on you can cast magic, so you aren't a commoner?"
Well technically not, thought Negi, but still better to be a little ambiguous at first, at least until I know what's going on. "Not what I said. I said I could cast magic, how does that divide classes?"
"The only mages in this world are the nobility. So if you can cast spells you must have noble blood in your veins. Where is your wand, no one saw you with one?"
"It's on my finger, don't you have alternate focus mechanisms so that a wand is not necessary to be used for everything?"
"What is an alternate focus?"
As Negi shows Osmand his ring, "This is an alternate focus. It has the basic formula carved into it to allow for spellcasting with this as the conduit for magical energy."
"You mean willpower."
"No I mean magical energy. Willpower is something entirely different that is used in enchantment and mind controlling magic."
Osmond could clearly tell that this youngster knew quite a bit about magical theory, and decides to explore it. He bids Louise and Colbert to leave so that he may talk more with Negi about various subjects.
After talking with Negi for a while and exploring some of the knowledge of Negi he calls for Colbert and Louise. "Colbert what would you think of adding another second year course. It would be a study of theory, combined with experimentation to back the theory up. Negi hear has already graciously agreed to teach the course for our students. There is time in the schedule four days a week, and the experiments would be done in the evening. Do you think this is doable?"
"Yes, but students will complain."
"Let them, it's our job to teach them to the best of our abilities. Negi can you have a curriculum ready by next 2nd day?"
"How many days?"
"4, it's the first day of the new week."
"Sure. I'll have the first couple of lessons by then."
"Sounds good. I will put out an announcement."
Lousie chimes in "Students will never agree to learn from a familiar currently."
"I have a plan for that. Negi please meet me in the courtyard at noon tomorrow. We will give the students a demonstration of your skills."
"Can we make it a combat challenge, I am much more of a combat mage and a student of theory than anything else."
"Certainly, Colbert would you be able to duel him?"
"Sure, but I don't want to kill him, I'd best hold myself back."
"There is no need. I am perfectly capable of holding my own with the strongest you can throw. I have already run some tests and the necessary magic is still castable. I will be able to use my strongest spells, so this will be a good chance to get a sense of the strength of your worlds mages."
"If you're sure," Colbert hesitantly states.
"I am."
"Alright, tomorrow at noon."
