20. Token of Sweat and tears

"Little brother, I can feel your lightning spreading all over my body. Ahh, little brother. It tickles. Hihihihi, stop it. Ahn~."

Her little cute moans with a seductive tone made my ears red. Every noise she made hammered my already fast-beating heart. Not by lust, but by fear of a lady in glasses, Miss Edna, who is staring at me with an angry look on her face. 'Don't look at me like that! Ask your student - what the hell is she doing?'- I was screaming inwardly. I didn't want to stay in this danger zone any longer. So, I put more elemental energy to fasten the healing but, her seductive moans intensified. After 2 minutes that felt like an eternity, the signs of the wound were gone. If other healers were to heal this wound, there would be a wound mark left. But my healing even made the skin look glossy.

I hurriedly stood up and looked at Edna.

"That should be enough to prove my property. Right?"

Edna replied, "Yes. Now you should start your real test."

I didn't consent with her.

"The test was only for verifying my Elemental property. Now that you have verified it, please stamp it on my paper and excuse me. I have to go to the Registration Hall to get my token. I have already spent quite the time here."

I bet, Edna didn't expect me to go into rebellious mode. As there was nothing wrong with my statement, she couldn't deny it. If Edna did, it would be an abuse of her power.

But I saw her glancing at the robbed figure. And in response, Alicia nodded. Thus, Edna didn't retort anymore and stamped on my papers.

I was surprised,' So easy to reason with?'

I grabbed it and ran away, cursing my dog sh*t luck inwardly, again. And…..I had to ask a pretty senior for directions.

Again.

The registration hall was 2 km far from my current location but closer to the main gate of the academy. So I had to run using a little lightning energy. By the time I reached there, there was a long line of students. And not so surprisingly, I am the last one.

I stood in the line but didn't talk to anyone.

'Talking to strangers always brings you trouble.' - mom's note of wisdom.

After waiting for a great deal of time, finally, I entered the registration hall.

The elder took my papers but didn't make any fuss regarding my element or department. He simply signed the papers and returned them to me.

"Go to the right and take a portrait of yourself."

"Portrait?"

"You will understand when you go there.", the elder shooed me and sat in a comfortable position. He also had quite a hectic day.

I went to the right side of the hall, and another elder received me. She brought me to a dark room. Where 3 crystals, red, blue, and green, were aligned in a straight line. There was also a transparent hexagonal crystal on one side and a silver membrane on the other side. The crystals were 7 feet tall!

"Stand in front of that transparent crystal, and don't close your eyes no matter what."

I stood in front of the crystal and waited for what was to come. Suddenly my whole figure was illuminated by blinding light. Then the light vanished after 2 seconds. The elder shouted that the work was done and brought a token with my portrait, name, registration date, and department name on it. My mouth was agape seeing my realistic portrait on a token. My eyes moved back and forth between token and crystal then they landed on the female elder who had done this miracle.

I have ditched much of my curiosity for the sake of cultivation. Those buds of curiosity were born in me, only to be squashed away by my focus on cultivation. But this time, I can't ignore it.

"When you want to curry figures from womankind, you have to praise them, have to reduce at least 30 years from their actual age, and also have to act cutely(if she is way older than you) in front of them."- Dad's book of wisdom.

So I asked her with a polite yet excited tone, "Wow, that's awesome. How did you do that elder sister? I have never seen something like this before. Can you tell me, please?"

And for the first time in my little life, my handsome face helped me positively, I think so. As I called her 'Elder Sister', a smile bloomed on her face.

She nodded at me, "Sure, why not.", and pointed to the transparent crystal,

"Pure white light is a combination of 7 colors of light. The 3 colors, Red, Green, and Blue, are the most fundamental of them. All other colors are made from their combination."

"And?" I asked back.

"The white light reflected from you carries your image. This big transparent crystal is called Prisma crystal. This Prisma crystal breaks the white light into 7 colors and creates 7 images of you. And those 3 crystals capture the red, blue, and green images. I am an Elemental Manipulator with light affinity. So, I can manipulate light and also see these colors. But even for me, manipulating all 7 colors is way too much. But, with these crystals, I have to manipulate only 3 colors of the image. I manipulated these colors, combined them on that Silver Film, and created a perfect real portrait for you. The token was made of special materials, which allowed me to print this portrait on it."

After understanding the whole process, I had only respect for the genius minds for their creativity.

A magnificent piece of work. But something caught my attention.

She was an Elemental Manipulator! Elemental Manipulators are called real elementalists as they can manipulate surrounding elements at will! They are the powerhouses below the Elemental Kings. Not to mention, she is probably 3 generations older than my father! And I am calling her elder sister!

But, for the sake of my life, I made another quick note 3: " Once a big sis, will always be a big sis." - My note of wisdom.

If Emma were to learn this, she would probably die hanging herself on tree roots.

Forgetting Emma, I focused on the fact that someone like her is sitting here to take other's pictures! What's wrong with this academy? Why is it so exorbitant?

Whatever, I didn't care anymore. Because, after so many ups and downs, I finally got the goddam*ed token. From now on, I am a student of Kreigar Academy.
