The 1.000 year Great Sage ---> COMPLETED STORY

On the next morning, they were all at the cafeteria eating. The Princess arrived shortly after them. As usual, Seya was late. It was becoming a habit!

- Good morning! Sorry, I had to take care of some things. Where's Seya? Late again?

Hina was with her mouth full of her favorite cake. She loved that one, but it was normally sold very quickly.

- Yesterday he said that he was going to do some drawings before going to bed. I bet that he lost track of time and didn't sleep. Better if we start to eat or we're going to be late.

...

After breakfast, they all went to the notice board near the Reception at the main entrance of the school. They start to look for their own names, just to found a very intriguing list of names on one of the Classes. Ryn found her name first.

- Well, let's see, where's my name... Oh, I'm in class 1-A!

Hina looked at the list of class 1-A and she noticed!

- What? All our names are in class 1-A!

- You can all say thanks to the great me!

Ryn looked at the Princess while raising one eyebrow.

- For what? The Princess did this?

Ryn held the Princess' hands and they both jumped together.

- Yes! Now we can be together, Princess!

- Forever! Ahahahah! Oh, and also you all. Sorry, I'm just too happy to be together with everyone!

Zak smiled. He was very happy.

- It's going to be very fun like that! I was kind of worried about being all alone in another class. Especially after my behavior on the Examination Tests.

Princess Heiji agreed.

- Yes, that was a very bad first impression that you gave, Zak. Ahahahah!

Hina looked at the class list again, searching for the schedule.

- Seems the first class is Applications of Magic. Better if we start going to class, it seems it's on another building.

Ryn was looking also.

- Maybe we should go get Seya, he will get lost.

The Princess pulled Ryn hand.

- No, let him look for the room. We can make fun of him later!

- Poor Seya... let's go then!

While they were still talking while looking at the notice board, they didn't notice a very amused Seya behind them.

- Poor what? Were all of you plotting something?

The Princess pointed her little finger at Seya's chest.

- You forgot about breakfast, didn't you?

- I lost track of time, Princess. I went to sleep very late and I overslept this morning.

- I knew it! Here, I saved these slices of bread for you.

John was so excited of his recent progress, he couldn't wait to tell Seya.

- Master Seya, I woke up very early today and I went to the yard practice Magic Control! I could keep the Magic for a long time but then I started to feel hungry and I got distracted!

- And it blew up?

- No, I did what Master said. When I realized that I lost control and before it exploded, I created a small rock ball. Without a chanting! I just thought that I needed to make it very fast before the explosion and I made it! It happened three times, so now I have three new Rock balls to play with! Then I stopped and went to eat breakfast. I think that if it wasn't because of my empty stomach, I should be able to maintain my Magic for hours!

- Good job! Continue doing like that, soon you will be able to increase the size of the Magic gathered. And eventually, your Control will increase. Better if we go to class. And stop calling me Master!

Everyone joined John and doing a military salute, they faced Seya.

- Yes, Master! I'm sorry Master! Ahahahah!

...

When they entered the classroom, there was already a woman seated at the teacher's desk. There were also some students seated. It seemed they were the last ones to arrive. As soon as they choose a chair, the teacher introduced herself and she started the class.

- Hello everyone. I'm Magic Teacher Fil. I will be in charge of teaching you all the Applications of Magic. I will start with the call.

...

- ... and of course, Magic is not only for attacking and defending, but you can also use it to have fun or make beautiful things, like this... 'Oh, Light from the Goddess, hear my call! Make a bird appear and fly over here! Light Bird !'

With that simple chant, the Teacher created a small bird that flew from the top of her hand and did some circles around the room, to finally land at the Teacher's desk. All that happened while Seya was completely absorbed in his own world, doing some drawings. The problem was that he choose a chair at the front row! The Teacher saw him writing and she mistakenly thought that he was following the class, very attentively.

- ... draw this here... connect Dark and Light Magic...

Ryn was smiling at the view of the little bird.

- So pretty, a bird made of Light Magic, flying!

- Maybe you should be taking notes like this student here!

The Princess started to laugh.

- I bet he's not taking any notes! Ahahahah!

- Let me see... What are these drawings? Do you now that you are in class?

- I'm sorry, what?

Only at that moment, Seya landed from his world of dreams. That was too much for everyone, especially the Princess!

- I knew it! Lost in his own world! Ahahahah!

- Seems like you think you don't need to follow this class, which means that you already know how to make a bird like that one, right?

Seya was still a little distracted. He looked at where the Teacher was pointing. Only at that time, he saw the bird made of Light Magic.

- What bird? Oh, a Light bird. A very small and simple one, but it's cute.

The Teacher raised her voice, mocking him.

- Like you were able to do better!

- The Teacher wants me to make one like that?

- I guess it's difficult if you never tried before. You don't need to worry your pretty little head, just continue on your drawings. Don't complain if you fail this class later on.

Princess Heiji was trying to hold her laughter, unsuccessfully.

- Better not challenge him, Teacher... Heheheheh!

- Ok, it must be made of Light or can I use another Attribute?

- Try to use the Attribute that you are able to. If you can.

- Ok, Fire then.

Gathering his Magic, Seya created a big cloud of Fire that slowly started to change its shape. In an instant, everyone could see a big bird made of fire with a huge tail of fire feathers, flapping its wings. Everyone could feel the heat coming from the movement of those wings. The big bird flew around the room, making some curves and twists, almost touching the heads of the students. It then landed on the marble floor of the class while still maintaining a proud pose.

The Teacher couldn't believe her eyes. As everyone in the class. Except for the Princess, she was used to seeing Seya blow up the common sense of everyone like it was nothing.

- This is a Phoenix. An Ancient creature that reborns from its ashes when it dies. They are almost extinct, now. They had a disagreement with the Dragonoids many Millennia ago, about some territory.

Ryn was admiring that huge bird made of Fire, completely hypnotized!

- So pretty! And so big! Look at his tail!

-That's my Big Brother! Go Seya! Ahahahah!

The Teacher couldn't believe! How was that possible?

- What? I didn't hear a chanting! And so quick! How did you do that?

- I didn't use a chant, Teacher. Actually, I never needed since I was a child.

- That's impossible! You can't use Magic without chanting to gather your Magic!

- But I just did. Or everyone here was imagining that big firebird flying around?

- It can be true! You must have chanted in a very low voice! It's something that it's against every Law of Magic!

- Actually, something that's written in school textbooks or books concerning Magic from the National Institute of Magic can't actually be considered Laws. They are more like guidelines, I guess?

- Now you're just saying blasphemy! Next, you're going to say what, that the Magic that everyone uses it's not giving by the Goddess?

- Actually, Magic comes from the World itself. And from all living things. The Goddess can do many things but I guess she lets the World be in charge of the Magic part.

- More blasphemy! Shut up at once!

- So narrow-minded! Seems like you need to see for yourself to understand.

Immediately after saying that, Seya made a huge wall made of rock appear at the side of the Teacher's desk. That wall came growing from the floor, like a tree.

- Ok. A rock wall to serve as a target... there. I didn't use chanting, right?

The Teacher screamed in surprise.

- Impossible!

- John, make a Rock ball, no chanting, please.

- ... it's done, Master.

- Princess, get ready. When I say so, put fire around the rock ball. John, thrown it against that wall. Princess, now!

- 'Fire spread!'

Pum!

- Teacher, did you heard any of us saying any chant? As you could see, it's possible. John started doing like this since today and the Princess is doing Magic without chanting for some years now.

- Monsters! You are all monsters!

- Teacher, that's enough! Either you stop it already, or I'll make you stop!

- You're a Demonoid, for sure! You corrupted these poor children!

- Ok... ||…Gateway to the Principal's office...||…

Seya created a Gateway connecting that classroom, directly to the Principal's office. As soon as it was open, everyone could see the Principal at his desk, writing some papers.

- … What's that?... the Principal!...

- Ahhhhhhhhhhh! What's that Dark Magic? You're a Demonoid for sure!

- Shut up already! Principal, sorry to intrude like this on your work but we have here a situation. Can you cross this Gateway and came here, please?

- Sure. What seems to be the problem?

Calmly, the Principal walked through the Gateway. Despite it was the first time that he saw that Magic, he was more worried at the urgent tone of Seya and the screams of the Teacher.

- Principal? How are you here? Are you a Demonoid also?

- What's up with you, Teacher Fil? Stop this racket at once!

- But...

- Shut up! Not one more word! Now Seya, do you care to explain?

- I guess it's just a problem of a difference of opinion. The teacher said that using Magic without chanting it's impossible, one thing leads to another and after that she was calling me Demonoid and John and the Princess over there, as monsters. I don't really care what she calls me but calling the Royal Princess a monster is something that I can't allow, even if it's a Teacher!

- I see. Teacher Fil, do you realize that insulting the Princess can be considerate an act of treason, condemned with death?

- But... but they were doing impossible things, for a mere human! And that one over there was saying blasphemies, like the Goddess was not the one that creates Magic! And saying that there are no such things as the Laws of Magic!!

- It seems it's not only a case of difference of opinion but a serious case of narrow mind and misconceptions. 'Oh, Water from the Goddess, hear my call and calm this person! Sleep Mist!'

Thump!

With that quick chant, the Principal put the screaming Teacher to sleep, to calm her down. She was really out of her mind, it was becoming scary looking at her eyes wide open and her screams!

- Can someone help me and grab her and place this poor woman on her chair? Seems like she needs to rest for a while.

Zak immediately got up and rushed to catch the Teacher.

- John, help me here.

- Well, I'm really sorry for all this, I never knew she was like that! She is been working here for 3 years already, I knew she was very rigorous but I never realized that she could be such a difficult person. I don't have much time available but I will continue this class for now. Seya, tell me everything from the beginning along with what she was teaching.

The Princess started to laugh, that was too much!

- Principal, maybe it's better if someone else explains what this lesson was about. Since this all happened because that guy was distracted! Ahahahah!

Seya pointed an accusing finger towards the Princess.

- It wasn't my fault! I'm pretty sure that I heard you starting all this mess!

...

As soon as the students exited the class, the school janitor was called by the Principal. When he arrived sometime later with a broom and a bucket, he saw a big rock wall shattered in the center of the room and a bunch of dust and small rocks on the floor.

- What the heck? How can I put all that on this bucket? And who made this wall in here? I knew that this school has some strange classes, but this is just ridiculous!

Suddenly, the Phoenix came from behind the shattered rock wall and he opened his wings while looking at the school janitor.

- What are you doing here, little guy? Come here and let me take a good look at you. You seem rather delicious!

When the janitor tried to grab the Phoenix, it increased the flames surrounding him by flapping the wings, burning the janitor's hand.

- Ouch! My hand! Stupid bird! I need to go to the School's Healer. Thanks a lot, lunch meat! I'll be back shortly, with an axe! I guess it's better if I also bring a pushcart, for all this mess.
