《The Unknown Magic Wielder》


 The Trip

    These lights are so annoying. Flickering not on and off. I¡¯m trying to clear my mind so i¡¯m not as nervous. This school is for training the selected people who have an affinity for magic. At least here i will be able to practice my magic once it develops. I was told from the grand wizard in my town that i have magical potential. But most people my age have already had their magic present itself.


    This train ride is quite bumpy and long the seats aren''t very comfortable. I can tell this is going to be a long day.


    Im sitting staring out the window of my small area of travel. The meadow looks quite nice this time of year. It''s nice and light green with a few trees its a beautiful sight of a fully natural area untouched by human hands.


    We pull into a stop and the train worker people are making their rounds making sure people have their tickets and they aren''t going farther than they are supposed to. I show the man that asks for my ticket and he says it''s fine as soon as he looks at it and that''s because the ticket doesn''t look like a normal passenger ticket, its silver and has special writing all around the edges of it.


    Here we go again on the rough bumpy trip to the school. I''ll try to sleep and see if that clears my head.


    The man from earlier that asked for my ticket is saying its my stop he offers me help with my bags, but i decline politely.


    Ahhhhh.. this fresh air, people are already practicing their magic and some others are just walking around talking with their friends.


    ¡°Hello everyone.. I am the council president chelly please follow me to take your magic test.¡±


    All newcomers must take it, it determines the class we must take for our magic potential. Think of it as like a test to detect the students who can control their power and those who have lots of power.


    We are lined up at the stage to see who has what type of power but there are people in the crowd that are scouting new students to join them, some others are looking just to see the new people but there are a few people looking looking to see who to make fun of. The first guy put his hand in the middle of the circle on the wall and tries to put his magic into the the circle. There''s a table next to him and the red stone lights up but not too brightly and floats up depicting that he has the fire ability and how high the stone goes is how much output the person has his stone went about to the ceiling of the room. The next person is a female who is quite nervous you can tell by the way she walked. The blue stone lit up and lifted about an inch off the table but her stone lit up brighter than the lights in the room the people were very ecstatic. That meant that she had lots of power but not much to send the power out which means she has the most chances to be more things to put her magic into. A few others past but without extraordinary talents, it''s now my turn i do the same as the rest of the students and hope something happens. All the stones lit up but none floated they all just sat there and slowly got bright then dim then bright again. After the people overlooking the exam took me off the stage they stopped the exams for people and were going to have us retake it once they figure out what went wrong.The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    The grass in the yard is amazing. It''s nice and soft which is not like how the grass where my home is like. The people here have all sorts of magic abilities such as water, earth, wind, fire, dark, light, and even boost abilities. There are about 40 people here in the yard practicing their magic.


    ¡°hey how are you i am britney and you are?¡± a girl came up and sat next to me

    ¡°That''s an unusual name.. But that''s good that means you are different from everyone¡±

    ¡°No problem.. You see the guy over there using the dark magic?¡±


    ¡°Yeah why?¡±


    ¡°His stone affinity broke¡±


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Yeah it broke that means he had too much power in both aspects but it looks like he can¡¯t control it¡­ so what''s your affinity?¡±


    ¡°I have to retake the exam the stones had a malfunction¡±


    ¡°Really! That sucks, well anyways im earth with equal affinity¡±


    ¡°Wow that''s great¡±


    ¡°So what magic can u control?¡±


    ¡°I can''t really control one yet ¡±


    ¡°What!! Really how can you not control a magic yet.. Well i¡¯m sure it will be a powerful one¡±


    ¡°Thanks i appreciate that¡±


    ¡°No problem¡±


    ¡°Well i got to go that was my break sorry¡±


    ¡°Its all ok dont worry ill see u later¡±


    As i walk back to my group an argument breaks out between two people saying how one can beat the other and such. An aid goes over and breaks it up.


    I''m back with my group and people are all gossiping about the new kid that has the most rare magic. He has lightning magic or plasma magic the most powerful and fast magic. The ranking of magic is light is the fastest moving but doesn''t do much damage then lightning which is the most dangerous but the most powerful and very fast then its fire water earth then dark then the buff magic which can be casted fast but doesn''t affect others. On damage the rank goes lightning, fire, earth, air, water, dark, light, then of course buff.


    ¡°All right everyone we need you to split up into boys and girls because we are going to the dorms¡±


    We split off and head off to the dorms

 First-Hand Experience of Powerful Magic

    they show everyone the dorms each room looks the same in every way but you are allowed to do what ever you may want to do with them. most of the other students which already have a dorm use their magic to help them with their daily activities such as laundry.


    i go to my room which is 310 third floor and tenth room mine is the the one closest to the stairs which means i can easily sneak out without disturbing any other students. i try to sleep but i am woken up by a pressure in my chest the room looks crimson same with outside but as quickly as it started it stopped and everything went back to normal i lay there not able to go to sleep anymore i put my hand towards the ceiling i think of home and a purple ball formed on my hand kinda like a balloon but it doesn''t want to fly away nor fall its as if its stuck to my hand but i go back to thinking of my childhood back when i would go into the forest by my house and hunt or do what ever i wanted i thought of my knife i used to use at home but when i opened my hand my knife was in my hand but it wasn''t my knife it was the same shape but it wasn''t the same color it looked like a rock. i set it on my dresser for now i can feel the magic of the other students in rooms around me i reach up again and try to practice the same method used at the gem test but i can feel the others powers and try grab for one like its a string in the air when i open my eyes my hand was on fire but it didn''t hurt it was warm but not hot. i tried to see how to put it out so lowered the amount of magic going to my hand and the flame went out i started it again just by putting magic back into my hand. the sun starts to come up so i get up and practice what i can do with my power.


    i walk down the stairs and go to the testing room they test me right away because there wasn''t anyone else awake and they were just setting up so they had me test and i displayed my power the gem begins to glow red and float i showed them i could change how high the gem flew at will they said i have a better ability than most when they test they gave me points and told me i could go now.


    i go outside to practice my power when i see Britney shes talking with people i presume to be her friends so i just wave to her and i start off by putting the flame in my hand i slowly increased the amount of magic into the flame it started to in gulf me in it i then condensed the flame back into my hand its now a different color i try to use it like a flamethrower but i end up launching it at mach 10 across the school grounds until it almost his another student practicing but good thing an instructor was there to stop the ball with his magic he put up a wall between the student and the flame ball but the ball blew up the wall he made the instructor tried again but this time he made the wall expand towards where the ball came from to try and stop it the fire ball managed to melt through 40 feet of the wall before it stopped. the instructor walked up to me and told me to go to the office and talk to the principal about what just happened.


    he walks me to the principals office and sits me down in front of him.


    "hello Mr.Presley this student was brought up because he attempted to attack another student"Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.


    "is that so well thenkit why would you do that"


    "i-i''m sorry but i wasn''t trying to attack the student i was just practicing my power"


    "is that so, well then some of the instructors could learn something from you even though you only just found your magic today"


    i look at the instructor that walked me up here and watched his face change from anger to fear as he just realized that i only just got my power


    "so i''m going to change your classes as you have showed that you already know how to use your power quite well. i''m going to put you in a forth year class because it is apparent that your magic skills are quite on par with them. i will also give you a note to class that excuses you from what happens outside and inside of class"


    "t-thank you Mr.Presley"


    "ok time for you to go to class"


    i nod to him and leave to class. when i get there the instructor is explaining what should go on in the training room.


    "s-sorry for interrupting but i just got a class change here''s my note from Mr.Presley"


    "its ok just go and sit down and listen to what i have to say"


    i sit in the back of the class by myself when i look up to look at the instructor i see that they are all staring at me as if trying to see what type of person i am. we start to walk to the training room and some of the students are holding what look like sticks. its apparent that these are wands that allow the caster to output more magic and control it easier.


    we get to the training room and the instructor has me use my magic first as he has seen the other students use theirs. i stand there and do the same thing that i did outside but not to the extreme extent that i did. the flame engulfed me and i compress it the same as i did outside but this time it didn''t change colors it stayed red and i launched it at the dummies that were there the fireball blew up the dummy but didn''t go much past it it seemed to explode on impact this time.


    the instructor had me step aside and told me that i have the most control over my magic in this class. he then asked me how long i have had my power for i told him it was only for that day. the instructor had me try it again but this time have the flame only appear in my hand but instead of throwing it kind of push the ball with your magic.


    i then try this back on the field and it worked. it was like a flame thrower the instructor then told me to step aside and watch the other students. the other students, well about 5 of them stood up and walked to the training platform and 2 of them had wands. the 2 with wands hit their target but weren''t very strong because they were going for accuracy the other 3 students used their attack it. 2 of them missed but one hit and had been just as powerful as min but he was using earth magic.


    a few moments later i feel the same feeling in my chest as i did from the morning. the room turned red and the students began to fall to the floor clenching their chests. when the door to the training room blew open. it felt like air magic, this feeling was very intense. the only people standing were the teacher and a few students including me. the guy that blew the doors down then struck me with a blast of air which threw me across the room into the wall. the teacher then throws an earth wall at the man. the man blows the wall up and proceeds to attack the teacher. the teacher was thrown to the ceiling then to the floor. i begin to reach out like i did this morning and grab at something that seemed like a string i begin to concentrate my magic into my hand like i did with the fire and i threw it at the man this seemed to knock him back. the pressure in my chest began to subside then everything went dark.
