I DON'T OWN ANYTHING

Cheren's pov

" Ughh," I still felt the pain from yesterday, but now its frequency has reduced than yesterday. 'Is it because of the technique that Touya taught me?' today morning, when I contacted Touya and asked him about this, he said that it is not something too serious for now but if I want to reduce the pain I have to press the center of my palm.

" Cheren, are you all right ?" Lyra asked " yes" I quickly replied, " you seem to be in pain" " uh, oh, it is..., I just ate something weird last night " I said, she looked skeptical but nodded, " oh, Touko is here" she said and waved at her, which even she reciprocate with a small wave. 'They became close ' until last week, Lyra treated Touko like a sworn enemy and now she is treating her like her best friend , ' girls are hard to understand ' till today I had just heard it but today I saw it practically, ' good observation, Cheren ' .

" Good morning, Touko ~" Lyra greeted, touko was shocked but responded with a slight nod, "good morning, Lyra, and you too Cheren" " yes" now that I look at her the events of last night resurfaces in the back of my mind, especially the that time when she unbuttoned , though she did to show the injury of her but... ' she trusted me without hesitation ' . I wonder if she will do the same thing to others or if I am special .

" Cheren, stop staring," ethan said that from behind, which made me shiver, " Hey ! you know I hate that, " I yelled at him, but like always, he laughed it off like it was nothing. "Cheren, are you feeling okay now?" Touko asked. She tilt her head slightly, " Touko, you knew he wasn't feeling well?" Lyra asked, " Yes." " oh~" she looked at me with a mischievous smug, "what ?" I asked," nothing ," she said, but I knew what was going on in her head." Stop making baseless assumptions, " I mumbled, but knowing her, I knew she won't stop it until and unless I really start dating Touko.

The bell for the first lecture rang, and everyone returned to their seats. Miss Valerie came inside with a stern look. She kept her books on the table and said, " All the students who are mages, please listen carefully to this announcement, from today till two weeks, you won't be having any magic lectures or any alchemy class because the barriers of the school is increased " , many students showed their discontent and others showed their joy . Magic lectures and alchemy lectures are only for students who are mages. Other students have vocational skills like using magic tools. I looked at Touko. She didn't show either happiness or discontent, 'this is the way she is raised ' looking back at how the atmosphere at her house was, there is no doubt that she knows how to stay calm and collected." Cheren," ethan, who was sitting beside me, whispered . I looked at him, " Why are you continuously staring at her ?" "wha-? no, I am not !" I screamed silently, " Oh, but you were, I am just asking, but... do you have a thing for her or something?" " n- no, it isn't... like that.." I said, and quickly started taking notes, 'it is really weird ' I thought , ' When is this day going to get over !?'

Touya's pov

This morning everything went like usual, I woke up, did some warm-up , went to take a bath, ate breakfast and went directly to the student council room. But as soon as I entered it , I saw that something was not like normal, " What is going on!?" I exclaimed, taking a step back, I kept staring at the room without knowing what is going on, the room was messy, all kinds of books were thrown out of the shelf, on the floor, the tables and chairs were not in order.

'I need to inform the authorities '. I turned around but stopped on my tracks, ' wait, first of all, is something stolen' I can't just go to school authorities and tell them that student council room is messy, and later finding out that it was our fault in the first place. I again went inside and looked around, everything seemed okay except the books and furniture weren't in order .

" Hm ?" I put my hand on my desk " search. " I did find something, a letter which can only be seen if you used search. I looked at the message written on the letter, 'the time has arrived, to start it, stop us if you can ' the message was short but written in today's language but the seal was the one which were used in medieval period . " It is a serious issue then," I mumbled.

" Good- huh!? Touya, what is this? " dawn arrived, and after her other members along with calem came, even they were shocked. I showed them the message that I had read . "So, what are your orders ?" Dawn asked, " we have to inform authorities, of course, right, touya?" calem said, turning towards me. I looked at everyone, and sighed, " I guess we don't have any other choice except raising the barriers, until and unless we find them " I said, "I, calem and dawn are going to principal's office, all of you arrange the room" I ordered.

"So you are asking me to raise the barriers," principal said, " yes, it would be -" " you know what might be the consequences " 'obviously ' "yes, sir " " still ? have you gotten into a fight with your sister?" " no, sir " " will you stop that 'sir' in every sentence that you say, everybody present in this room knows you are my grandson " " I wish to keep personal matters and professional matters separately " I sternly gave him a clear response , " are you still angry?" he asked, " Well, whatever, I will raise the barriers today itself, so if anything happens to Touko, I am not going to take any responsibility, " he said.

I got up and bowed to thank him, but when I was about to leave, at that time, " your mother suffered because she wanted something she would have never been able to achieve, she would have have survived if not for-" " I guess my topic of discussion was about school, sir, " I turned to look towards him, " it wasn't about my mother or about her decisions " I said and left the room without giving it a second glance.

"Touya" calem called, and dawn gave a worried look , " it's okay, let's go or else we will be late for our lectures too " I said, I went ahead and those two followed me, 'it's okay, I guess' I had always hated to give and take back answers from anyone or to anyone but sometimes it is necessary, I guess.

Done. Well, as explained inside the chapter that there are four types of magic . In that, though, Touko said that the free form isn't used frequently, but it is more like it is used for simple attacks, like ' push' or ' boost' or to shoot an arrow or anything.

The circle magic is like a fancy style of attacking , it differs from every individual, but if they are family then it may remains same.

Well, this was just some background before going on another chapter. So, thank you and enjoy.
