A few days after the ceremony. A judge from the temple comes.

                “Hello sir. My name is Nathaniel. I’m the judge who evaluated your son. I was wondering if you have any plans to enter your son into the academy.”

                “O, did my son do that well? I only heard that he was able to use all types of magic, but I know a few people who can do the same. That didn’t make them good enough to get a judge come see them and request them to go the capital academies.”

                “You don’t understand how special your son is then. During his evaluation he had a 100 percent transparent sphere. Those people you knew probably only had a slight transparency. With his evaluation he will easily learn magic of any type. The elements must truly adore your son. Since it will easily allow him to absorb them and expand his magic storage.”

                “I didn’t think that my son would get such an evaluation. However, I don’t want him to go to the academy any time soon. He is too timid. I wouldn’t want him to get boss around or manipulated in the academy. Allow me some time and I will talk to you again about his academy admissions.”

                “That is fine, but please contact me before going straight to the academies. I do know that you have your own connections to get your son into the academies. Especially with your title of blood warrior and the people you have saved during your time as a soldier.”

                “That was a long time ago. I am no longer the blood soldier. Now I am just a father and a patrol for this town. I no longer use blood magic like I used to.”

                When Nic said this there was a hint of blood flash through his eyes. This is something that Nathaniel could not, not notice.

                “Your eyes can not lie of your past Nic. Even though you have married and settled down. You still have the thirst for battle. Why else have you decided to be a guard? This town is on the out skirts of the kingdom. It had so many monsters roaming before you became the guard. Now it is so peaceful that you wouldn’t think this is a town on the edge of the kingdom. With you alone this town is safe enough for parents not to worry about their children playing outside and getting attacked by a stray monster.”

                “Thank you Nathaniel, but I will have to think about it. I now live my family and my wife Jess isn’t to found of the capital. She was once a slave there. There is nothing but bad memories for her there. I will think about your offer. Should I change my mind I will contact you.”

                “If that is your decision. Then please take these books and teach your son magic. I know from asking around that you teach children magic. These books are more advanced books on the topic of magic. Also on how to utilize magic and different meditation techniques. If your son should enter a magic academy I’m sure he will become one of the top students.”

                “Thank you Nathaniel for your concerns.”

                The judge soon took off after offering the books to Nic.

                “Maybe I should start taking Rain along on my patrols, so he can see more people and hopefully open up more.”
