As I was training my magic control with Sōzokujin, Uxor kept giving me weird stares as if I was forgetting something.

* “Loki, get over here!” She said in an annoyed voice

* “What?” I asked as I was coming to where she sat

* “The disguise.” She said

* “Disguise?”

* “Lexia’s friends are coming over and you need to look like an elf, and I hope you haven’t forgotten your alibi.”

* “I haven’t, but I did forget they were coming over.” I said as I tapped the earring

* “Really? You said they could come over and then went to bed.” Jin said while still training

* “Oh yeah right I did say that.” I said as the disguise finished forming

Immediately after the conversation was over and I went back to sparring with Sōzokujin the front door opened and three girls the same age as Lexia came in.

* “So this is where you live!” One of them said happily

* “Where’s your family?” Another one asked

* “Why is there a red haired boy sparring with Sōzokujin?” The third one asked pointing out doors

* “He’s hot!” The first one said

* “Is he your boyfriend?” The second one asked

* “Can you all calm down!” Lexia said stopping all the questions

* “Who is he?” The third one asked

* “A family friend who is living with us temporarily.” Lexia answered

* “Hello, you three must be Lexia’s friends.” Uxor said who had gone to great them

* “Hi, I’m Sate!” The first one said

* “I’m Unzari.” The second one said

* “My name’s Onwa.” The third one said

* “Who’s that back there!” Sate shouted in excitement

* “Yeah! Can we go talk to them!?” Unzari asked a little quieter but still loudly

* “Keep it down will you!” Jin shouted at them

* “I’m sorry!” Both of them said in unison

* “Where’s your dad?” Onwa asked Lexia

* “He’s at work.” Lexia replied

* “Want to take a break to drink?” I asked Jin

* “Sure, but are you just asking this so you can talk to the ladies?” Jin asked teasingly

* “Shut up!” I said as I kick him in the stomach

* “But I bet you do!” He said after getting to his feet

* “I bet you're just saying that to make yourself look like a gentleman.” I said as we were making our way in the house

* “What are you talking about?” Onwa asked after appearing out of nowhere in front of me

* “None of your business Onwa.” Jin said as he pushed her out of the way

* “What’s your name?” She asked me ignoring Jin

* “Itazura.” I said as I walked to the kitchen and got a glass of water

* “Lo- Itazura, stop talking to the girls and get outside.” Jin said as he grabbed my collar

* “I just introduced myself to her.” I said as I went outside again

* “Do you want to see my room?” Lexia asked

* “Sure.” Onwa said as the girl’s followed Lexia

* “You seem to know that Onwa girl.” I said to Jin while I was meditating to try and improve my speed at flowing magic

* “I used to date her older sister.” He said as he was doing practice swings with a sword

* “Ohh? And you call me a womaniser!” I said to him while trying to figure if I could use magic in other ways than inside objects

* “Shut up!” He said as he threw his sword toward me which I dodged

* “Anyway, enough about girls, I have a question.” I said as I stood up from the ground

* “What is it?” He asked as he went to pick up the sword

* “Is it possible to use magic through the air?” I asked as I tried to flow magic into the air

* “For that you would need extremely high level support type magic.”

* “So Lexia may be able to do it?”

* “Yeah probably.”

* “Which elements can she use, other than nature?”

* “Wind and Water.”

* “Hmm, I’ll be right back.” I said as I hurried in the house and toward Lexia’s room. “Hey, Lexia, can you help me with something?”

* “Just a moment.” Lexia said as the door opened

* “Come in.” Sate said as she tried to pull me into the room

* “I’m not here to hang out with you three, I just need to talk with Lexia.” I said getting a little annoyed at the fact that they tried to get my attention

* “What is it?” Lexia said from inside the room

* “Just come with me.” I said as I removed Sate's hand and turned around to leave

* “I’ll be right back guys.” She said as she hurried after me

* “Can you flow magic into the air?” I asked as we went outside

* “Yeah, but not far.” She answered

* “Could you show me?” I asked

* “What do you want me to do?”

* “Create water.” I said

* “I’ll try.” She said as she opened her hand and focused

* “Can’t you not do it without mixing in the nature element?” I asked as a green water ball floated in her hand

* “It’s possible but not easy.” Jin said who was still training

* “But I can do it no problem if it is into a weapon.” I said

* “Yeah, me too, but healing is different.” He said as he threw a sword to me

* “In what way?” I asked as I poured magic into the sword. “Oh, and you can go back to your friends if you want now, Lexia.”

* “Okay.” She said and left

* “When you use a sword you intend to kill so if you pour fire into it then it gets more deadly, but if you pour fire directly into a person…”

* “They die…”

* “Exactly.”

* “Okay, I think I understand.”

* “Why are you just standing there, get to training!” Lupus said who was supervising our training

* “Right!” We said at the same time

As I was doing practice swings with my sword while imbuing it with magic, after I awhile I decided to try focusing magic in the exact same way but without a sword, I threw away the sword I was holding, got into position as if I was holding a sword I closed my eyes and tried to imbue an imaginary sword with light magic and fire magic, I did practice swings as I would with a real sword until I felt something different in my hand, it felt as though I was gripping a real sword not just air that I tried to make into a sword, I opened my eyes and looked at my hand that was gripping a white glowing fire sword.

* “It worked!” I shouted to Jin

* “What did?” He said while pausing his practice swings

* “A sword made out of pure magic.” I said as I walked over to him. “Look.”

* “How did you manage to do that?” He asked as he looked at the sword

* “Here put down the sword I’ll show you.” I said as I released my magic sword

* “What do I need to do?”

* “Get into the stance you would if you were holding a sword.”

* “Alright, like this?”

* “Perfect, now close your eyes and imagine yourself holding a sword that you're pumping full of magic.”

* “Alright.”

* “Now try to swing it without breaking the magic structure that you're trying to get the magic to take.”

As Sōzokujin was doing that I tried to make magic swords out of as many different combinations of magic i could, Dark, Dark Thunder, Dark Fire, Light, Light Thunder, Light Fire, Fire, Thunder, even Thunder Fire which exploded in my face but still even for a moment took the shape of a sword, but for some reason Nature just didn’t want to do as I told it to.

* “Hey, Jin are you trying to use nature magic in your magic sword?” I asked wanting to see if I was right

* “Yeah, why?” He replied

* “Try to just use one of your other elements.” I said

* “Alright.” And immediately after he tried that a magic sword of fire appeared

* “Just as I thought.”

* “Did you figure something out?”

* “Yeah, but first I want you to try using your Earth element at the sametime as Fire in your sword.” I said

* “Sure, but why?” He said as the sword turned from flames to a lava like substance

* “Hm, so nature doesn’t want to come out and some magic types won’t mix huh.”

* “What do you mean?” He asked

* “I’ll explain on the field tomorrow since we’re going into the forest for another week.” I said

* “Actually you’re going into the forest for two month’s.” Lupus said

* “What!?” Both me and Sōzokujin shouted in surprise
