Chapter 3: It's true!

"We are here to help!

We will gradually introduce you to the reality that prevails here. Magic is the order of the day here, and various intelligent races coexist in numerous worlds of our universe. If you want to stay in the magical reality, we will help you with the rules of the alliance worlds."

The picture shows several creatures that can be seen in the comics... A girl who looks like a real elf, a boy who looks like a man covered with scales, he also has wings and a tail. Dragon? And one more. Body covered with fur, ears like a fox, thick hair resembling a mane, and a long tail like a snow leopard.

- Looks like really good art... Or real? - the following leaflets were in a similar overtone. A bit like propaganda I might say. I think he has an obligation to distribute them.

Another hour passed. I was finally able to fall asleep. I had a dream that was long and scary. In the past, I read a lot of books about fantasy worlds... And I just dreamed of the worst scenes from each of them.

Luckily, I woke up to the sound of the door opening. My captor came in quite loudly, staring at the piece of paper in his hand with a twinkle in his eye, and then he looked at me with the same twinkle.

- It seems like we're kinsmen in a way. For the first time, I have someone who has magical genes of Exceed race.

I blinked a few times, staring at the strangely excited man's face.

- What is Exceed? - I asked.

- Oh, it is... We are one of the main magical races. You are too... In small part but still. Magical genes can expand and eat weaker ones - he tried to explain this shortly to me.

- Genes... Eating other genes? Do you know how stupid it is?

- No... It is pretty normal. This is magic, magic allows you to do lots of things you possibly never dreamed about - he said to me.

After thinking for a moment, he did something that left me stunned again. A ball of light appeared in his hand, which he began carelessly tossing from hand to hand.

- See? This is magic - the energy disappeared after a while.

- And you do it... Just like that? - my brain was getting some solid shock therapy.

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

- Just like that - he confirmed. - And let me introduce myself... Sorry for doing it so late. I'm Light... My parents are not really creative and I guess they were too happy about my magic affinity - his attitude towards me has definitely changed. - And don't worry about a guy you burned. The wound is healed, memories removed... Oh, and the police caught him - he nodded, pleased with himself.

- Oh... Good news... The last one is for sure good news... I'm William - I introduced myself finally. - What are you going to do with me?

- Well... This is your choice. We can erase your memories and block your magic and send you to Earth or you can stay here... But it will be not recommended to keep in contact with friends or family on Earth. There are serious reasons why magic on Earth is forbidden. I can't tell you more - he explained.

- I understand... I think so... - I'm looking at him carefully. - Can you tell me more about Exceed race? You look like a human... Exotic but still human - I'm going to regret this question. For sure.

- This is to avoid you panicking. Normally I have fur, a nice long tail... You call it furry on Earth I guess? - he kinda asked me.

- Yess... Oh, something like... This guy? - I showed him a picture from the leaflets.

- Yes, exactly - he nodded.

And after a second, he just shapeshifted! He was big in human form? Now he is even bigger! I think I'm going to pass out again! It took me a few minutes to assimilate it.

- OK... Real life furry... I don't think I can deny all of this anymore... - I gave up completely on my attempts to logically explain it all.

- Now fill out all these documents - he handed me the biggest sheaf of papers I've ever seen in my life.

It took me 4 hours to fill everything. I was more and more fascinated by the experiences waiting for me. Light was not here to help me, but I managed to fill out documents without bigger issues. I was hurt a little because he was not interested in me more than the fact that I have genes of his race... Or maybe I'm overthinking. I left documents on the table and I fell on the couch. I'm mentally exhausted.

When I woke up, the documents were not there on the table, but there was a jug of fresh juice and something that looked like cake rolls. Again, the juice was amazing. When I expected cake rolls to be sweet, they were actually filled with meat and vegetables. I ate everything. To good to be left.

*knock knock*

- Um... You can come in? - I said surprised.

Instead of a tall man, a girl entered the room. She was covered with bluish fur with navy blue spots.

- Hello, my name is Aria, you must be William. Sorry for Light's behavior. He doesn't necessarily know how to behave outside of his official duties - she laughed slightly.

- Don't worry about this... I'm still alive. This is a good sign - I nodded.

- That's great, then. Documents are filled properly. You will get your ID card soon. After a few more examinations we will determine your possibilities in the use of magic. You can take advantage and take part in training founded by our organization. They are on every even day of the week at 18... I'll show you around so you can learn where everything is and we can talk freely if you need this - she smiled friendly.

I got up quite suddenly. Fear and uncertainty gave way to fascination. I had a chance to see more of the magical world, woohoo!
