"I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him."
Booker T. Washington
Previous Chapter. Former Student and Tutor.
"I am glad you think like that. She is definitely different from your previous tutors." Caesar stated.
Meanwhile with Apple, after Caesar and Jerry were left. Someone knocked on her door. She opened the door and found it was one of the villagers.
"Lady Apple, a woman asked me to give this letter to you." The villager gave her the letter.
"Thank you," Apple said.
The villager then bowed and left immediately. After that, Apple observed the letter and found there was no name and address of the sender. She opened it and took out a piece of paper.
'Come to Gregminster and meet the President at night.'
Apple looked confused with the note.
Chapter 4. Leaving.
In the village of Alma Kinan, a girl was packing into a backpack. Another girl looked at her.
"So, where do you want to go?" The other girl asked.
"I want to go to Crystal Valley." The girl answered. "Is that okay with you?"
"It's okay. Actually, I don't have a plan where to go."
"Thanks for allowing me to be your travelling companion."
"You're welcome."
The girl was done with the packing. Then, she turned to the other girl.
"Stephy, how did you learn magic if your master is crazy." The girl asked.
"I learned it by myself from a scroll given to me by a mysterious woman. After I've learned it she took it back."
"What! Who is that mysterious woman?"
Stephy just shrugged.
"Can you teach me?" The girl asked suddenly.
"Huh? You want me to teach you?" Stephy looked confused.
"Yes, can you teach me?" The girl repeated.
"Why did you want to learn magic?"
"Because I just think I need to learn it."
"Fine, I will do my best to teach you."
The girl looked happy. "Thank you, Stephy."
The 2 girls were about to leave until 2 women stopped them.
"Lemon, are you sure, you want to leave?" The younger woman said.
"I am really sure, Yumi."
"I have to give this to you, Lemon." The older woman gave her a rod and a small sphere.
"A rod and an Earth Rune? Why?" Lemon looked confused.
"Your mother knew you will learn magic someday, even if she never taught you any magic. So, she made that rod for you and kept the Earth Rune for you because your affinity also earth like her." The older woman explained.
Lemon gazed at the 2 objects, then, turned to the 2 women. "Thanks, Yuiri, Yumi."
"Take care of yourself, Lemon," Yumi said.
"I will," Lemon replied.
The 2 girls then left the village. Along the way, Lemon kept staring at the rod and the Earth Rune.
"You know, my mother seemed to know what I will do," Lemon remarked.
"Of course, she is your mother."
"Can we start now?"
"You mean about learning magic."
"Yes, what should I do first?"
"I don't think it's a good idea to do it while walking."
"Why?"
"You need to concentrate whenever you want to perform magic."
"Just teach me a simple one."
"Fine, how about you make a blast from your rod."
Lemon tried to concentrate her magic to the rod. Then, a small blast came out.
"Well, at least I made something happen," Lemon said with a disappointed face.
"That was pretty good," Stephy commented.
"Don't need to cheer me up."
"I don't," Stephy said. "We will continue your training after you have the Earth Rune equipped."
"So, we will continue when we arrive in Chisha." Lemon stated.
"Exactly." Stephy laughed.
"Should I call you master, now?" Lemon asked jokingly.
"Whatever you like?"
{G~S~III}
After a few hours, they finally arrived at Chisha Village. Many people stared at them.
"You know Lemon. I think you need to change your outfit." Stephy remarked.
"Why?" Lemon asked nonchalantly.
"Your Alma Kinan outfit drew too much attention," Stephy said matter-of-factly.
"Oh." Lemon noticed the people were staring at her outfit. After all, it was not every day the people could saw someone from Alma Kinan. "I get it."
"Well, let's go to a rune shop to get your Earth Rune equipped," Stephy said.
They walked towards a rune shop and entered it.
"Welcome." The runemaster greeted them.
"I want to get this Earth Rune equipped," Lemon said.
"It will be 100 potch." The runemaster said.
Lemon gave the money. The runemaster then held her right hand and placed the earth rune above her hand. Then, the Earth Rune went into her hand. Lemon stared at the earth symbol in her right hand.
"Thank you," Lemon said.
Lemon and Stephy then left the shop. Lemon then remembered something.
"Oh no," Lemon exclaimed.
"What is it, Lemon?" Stephy looked bewildered.
"Well, it just that, all of my clothes are Alma Kinan style."
"Oh, so, that's the problem." Stephy looked relieved. "Let's go to the inn first."
Stephy and Lemon walked to the inn and rented a room for the night. They went to their room. Lemon threw herself to the bed, while Stephy was busy looking for something from her backpack.
"Stephy, what are you looking for?"
"Wait, you'll see."
Stephy then took out a dress from her backpack and showed it to Lemon.
"See, do you like it? You can have it."
Lemon stared at the yellow and green dress. "It's beautiful. Thanks, Stephy."
Lemon hugged her tightly.
"All right, let me go before I die and you will lose your master." Stephy joked.
They laughed.
{G~S~III}
After Lemon changed her dress, they left the inn and went to the forest.
"All right, our training begins," Stephy announced.
"Yes, Master."
Stephy chuckled at her new title. "First, try to make a blast like before, but, make it bigger."
Lemon nodded and began to concentrate her magic to the rod. She closed her eyes, her body began to glow with yellow light and a yellow blast came out from her rod and destroyed the nearest tree.
Lemon was startled by the loud noise and opened her eyes to find the tree in front of her fell.
"Poor tree," Lemon remarked.
"That's good, Lemon." Stephy praised her.
Lemon smiled. "What else I have to do, Master?"
"You should try to dematerialise your rod," Stephy said. "Like this."
Stephy dematerialises her broom, then, she materialises it again. Lemon looked at her with amazement.
"That's amazing," Lemon remarked.
"Okay, you try."
Lemon concentrated her magic, then, the rod began to vanish.
"Where did it go?" Lemon asked after the rod disappeared.
"Whenever you want," Stephy answered. "Now, try materialising it."
Lemon concentrated her magic and the rod appeared again. "Yay, I make it."
"That's good, Lemon. You should be able to dematerialise another thing too." Stephy informed.
"Really."
"Yes, of course," Stephy answered. "Now, you should try to make a shield."
"A shield?" Lemon looked confused.
"Like this." Stephy made a shield with her hand. Stephy was surrounded by a green shield.
"Wow." Lemon stated.
"With this, no one can attack you from anywhere, until the shield break," Stephy informed.
"When will the shield break?" Lemon asked.
"When your magic weakens or when you receive a very powerful attack."
"All right." Lemon then concentrated her magic. Then, a yellow light surrounded her and formed a circle around her. Stephy looked surprised.
Lemon looked bewildered by the circle. "Did I make a mistake?"
"No, that's very good, Lemon," Stephy stated. "Every magician has their own unique shield."
"But, this circle looks weak." Lemon stated.
"You think so?" Stephy said. "Then, let's give it a test."
"You mean?" Lemon asked.
"Hold your magic, Lemon, I will attack you," Stephy warned.
Stephy sent a green blast from her hand straight to Lemon. Lemon looked scared, she closed her eyes. But, the blast could not get through the circle and the blast vanished.
Stephy smiled. "Open your eyes, Lemon."
Lemon opened her eyes with hesitation. "You did a good job." Stephy praised her.
Lemon looked at her circle and realized she had made it.
Lemon looked happy and ran to Stephy. She hugged her tightly.
"I better make a note to stay away from your hug." Stephy joked.
Lemon laughed and released her. "Did I really have become a magician?"
"Of course, Lemon. You're a gifted magician." Stephy stated.
