Chapter 4 - That was just the first day?!!

This is bad really bad.

Something was wrong and it showed on her face even Ellionore could tell something was wrong.

Did i do something wrong i didn't pulled my hand like you told us.

Oh no nothing is wrong absolutely nothing just tell your parents that they would like to come to school today or when they find the time nothing more. She had a stupid grin on her face. How the hell im supposed to tell her?! to rob her future this! this is to much.

The little girl left clearly confused. Spinas came with her.

Common how bad can it be i don't know what happened too but im not sad, maybe your think is so rare that she must keep it secret from everyone if thats the case you better tell me as your first friend.

She stopped, who told you we are friends and more importantly who told you i don't have friends if you want to mess with me don't i don't fell like hearing your jiberish. Now leave me alone i said i forgave you for before don't make me take it back.

The boy was shocked he certenly didn't expect this awnser, he thought that they could become friends after their miscommunication but it seems like not. Sry i i didn't mean to make you mad if that's what you want i will respect it. Then he left her alone suppressing a tear.

In this school there where optional afternoon courses the objective was to occupy the children of the busy adults while teaching them extra lessons that didn't fit on the morning lessons. That's why on every building they where empty beds that the kids could easily sleep and each parent gave them their home blankets and pillows making them feel at home. In some extreme cases the kids could even sleep and live here but that rarely happened needless to say to support such an ambition food, clean toilets, security, health care and focused care based on the childs needed to be done thats why the Empire speared no expanse and organized such feat to be possible.

The reason was simple magic and melee training. Yes now Ellionore and all kids below 8 were to young to be trained to the sword but that didn't mean they couldn't learn magic and by establishing such system the parents would willingly give their children to the cable hands of the Empire when they grew old enough to weild a sword. Thats why they build both the Primary and Junior high together so from the age of 6 till 16. 10 years the kids would be here getting taught and obviously on the occasion a prodigy or a cable student arises the Empire would know it making preparations to recruit such prodigy in the spans of years not days. That's why for a woman it was very important to be talented in magic since she couldn't praticipate on the melee training.

WHATDOYOUMEANSHECAN'TCONTROL ANY TYPEOFMAGICTHAT'SIMPOSSIBLE.

While the rest of the children started at the basics of how to control fire. Asmina took the job of being the bearer of the bad news.

I meant what i said for some reason or another your daughter is unable to cast a single spell even if the best teacher taught her 0 is still zero i understand your anger but please try to be reasonable. Ellionore together with her parents heard such proclamation.

Her father sat down clearly distressed, impossible, my sweet girl can't control magic i can't believe it. What are we even supposed to do now. Ellionore obviously didn't understand the importance of such thing hugging her mother tightly.

She still can live a normal life it's not like the world ended.

Can you at least allow her to attend the elemental classes? Please!! for her future.

Sure no problem one more student isn't going to make a difference just don't expect the school to spend resources and time to her.

Thank you saved her life, Ellie you need to hear the teacher and do whatever she says ok?

Sure dad, after all she is the second person who defended me when someone said something bad at me.

The father maked a questioning face but the teacher seemed to be done talking.

The Anderson family walked home together still the air was heavy and noone talked. The mother served food, afterwards everyone prayed to Millos god of magic.

Please grant my daughter the ability to use our blessings i promise you she will use them for a just cause.

The god of magic Millos was part of a threarchy together with the god of fights and war Iphor and goddess of wisdom Artes.

While everyone who worshipped one automatically worshipped all of them that didn't stop humans to pick factions or compare the gods in between themselves.

According to humans and whatever proofs they found on anssient texts. Millos was the strongest of the 3 both in might and in his godly power's. He was also believed to be the leader of the 3 and the central figure in the bedtime stories.

On the other hand Iphor was presented as the sadistic god who always walked between good and evil. On the stories he rarely directly helped the heroes instead he gave them another challenge they needed to succeed and if they failed it he always would give them some kind of curse. Obviously in order to not look complete evil in the event they succeeded he always gave them untold powers in order to surpass the obstacles in front of them, he also sometimes indirectly aided the heroes by helping them find their destined team members.

As for Artes she always helped mortals with prophetic visions or ancient knowledge she also was responsible for protecting the wifes and children of the heroes while they were busy saving the world. In all history that humanity has found Artes never once fought anything and anyone and therefore humanity believed she was the first ever non combatant god in existence.

Each god obviously was celebrated and sometimes they were celebrated all together.

Millos demanded for the humans to not give up evolving and trying to survive in the monster filled world thats why festivals of endurance and engineering were organised to prove that humanity still struggles both on body and mind.

Iphor demanded for the humans to search for power or authority. And to throw all other unnecessary thoughts away, his challenges and ways for the faithful to prove themselves were so hard that even his followers didn't follow all of them.

One of them was in the event that a full moon came to the sky the follower needed to eat and drink as little as possible from the time he saw it until he confirmed that the next night didn't have a full moon in the case 2 or more full moons happened consecutive (witch wasn't rare in this region) the follower was expected to not eat and drink as many days or even months the full moon was on the sky.

As for Artes she demanded that humans be kind with each other thats why every new year the town organized food and gift stalls with all kinds of wares where all someone had to do to take them is ask.

After the family prayed Ellionore went to her room dogging her parents questions about how was her school. At home Ellionore slept anxiously looking forward to the next day.
