"Luciana! I thought you were going to leave! Why are you still here?" Nicolas cried.

"Umm... Drachen lets go, classes are starting in 5 minutes" Charlotte hurriedly said pushing him out the door.

"Ugh, what's with all the noise?" Luciana said drowsily after stretching and yawning from Nicolas shaking her awake.

"I'm the one asking the questions like Why are you still in my room?" Nicolas asked furiously as this girl had promised to leave after he left but she clearly didn't and created an awkward moment.

"Ok ok, I'm leaving no need to start overreacting," Luciana said before getting dressed. "So, we still on tonight?" She asked slowly licking her lips.

"I don't know, maybe." Nicolas gave into her insistent demands quite a lot and just couldn't help it. She was one of the hottest girls in this school standing at 6 foot tall and had long and silky raven hair. She had a thin waist and her breast size was 34E making her figure stunning. Her and Nicolas had been in an on and off relationship, for 4 months now in which some days they only hunger for each other and on other days they had sex with anyone but each other. He had grown quite fond of her but didn't know how to approach her in a way that's not going to end up with sex.

"Sheesh, this girl... why do I even bother?" Nicolas mumbled to himself whilst tidying up before hurrying off to class.

Charlotte and Drachen were heading to their classes in silence, both too nervous to start a conversation, before splitting up with Charlotte going to chat with her friends and Drachen, whilst being jealous of Charlotte for having a lot of friends, left to find where Magic Manipulation class was. Unluckily Drachen was a total direction idiot and got lost but fortunately, a short boy with his eyes of different colours, a black eye and a red eye, tapped on his arm, pointed left and subsequently followed in that direction.

"You're showing me to class?" Drachen asked as he followed the boy after seeing his weird actions. The boy didn't reply and just kept walking.

Finally, they arrived at his class, Magic manipulation. Drachen was thankful and wanted to thank the strange boy but upon turning around to do so, he'd noticed the boy had disappeared.

"That...is some supernatural shit" Drachen muttered before entering the class. 

"Ah, our new student is here! Drachen" The teacher said, energetically "Please sit over there," he said pointing at the empty side of the classroom.

"I wouldn't sit there if I was you..." A boy whispered under his breath with a mischievous look on his face.

"Why are you all sitting on one side?" Drachen asked bewildered, sitting down in his seat in the process.

Shortly after, the classroom door opened and everyone but Drachen held their breath in fear of her.

"Charlotte! It's...nice to see you again" The teacher this time, whilst beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, spoke nervously when greeting her.

"Hm," She said wordlessly whilst looking down at her phone, walking towards her seat. Unknowingly she continued walking and sat right next to Drachen.

"Hi Drachen, I didn't know you were in this Magic Manipulation class too," Charlotte said with a friendly expression after turning around to see Drachen sitting beside her

"Same I thought, I thought you were going elsewhere with your friends but this class's reaction to you entering..." He laughed as he thought of their faces.

"Oh, that's because when I first came there were a lot of perverts in this class and, by no surprise, they approached me after school. Of course, there's no way I'd let that happen so by the next day, with my fathers help, they were filtered out like trash. So I became known as a 'Pervert's Nightmare'." Charlotte said, observing Drachens reaction.

"I see why..." Drachen said with a wry smile on his face.

With their mouths, an 'O' shape the energetic teacher and their classmates stared at the friendly interaction between them in shock.

How could he be talking to Charlotte? Many approached her but they were all shot down!

They all had similar thoughts to this weird event but ended with different conclusions. Some thought that the two were in a relationship whilst others thought Drachen's brave straight-forward approach was the way to get to Charlotte so they took notes, gazing at Drachen's every movement like hawks.

Drachen and Charlotte felt a shudder down their spines and turned to see the whole class, including the teacher, focused on them.

The teacher coughed in an effort to get the class's attention back "Ok class let us begin". Drachen was intelligent and found that most of what was taught during this lesson were information he already knew but he still picked up additional info. This was that when using Magic, users emotions affect the magic directly, therefore, control is essential. Charlotte didn't lack in knowledge when compared to Drachen and was also speedily devouring information. These two were unparalleled when it came to theory, shocking the teacher with their diligence.

"Ok, now we're going to put what we learnt into practice. Each of you has a rusted sword in front of you that will, naturally, be unable to pierce steel pieces. You must channel your magic directly into it to enchant the rusty sword so that it is able to pierce the steel. You have a minute to complete this task. Begin"

On the word 'Begin' the students all picked up their weapons and directly infused Magic into it. The chances of failing were high as you'd have to have a steady flow and your emotions must not be swayed in order to strengthen the rusted sword. The sounds of steel being pierced came to noise.

"That is it, Please place the swords down," The teacher said with his eyes darting between the student's steel pieces being surprised at some of the results.

"The ones to complete the task in the fastest time is Charlotte with a time of 13 seconds, Percy being second with a time of 22 seconds and Drachen being third with a time of 24 seconds." The teacher said with a delighted look on his face. "The ones to do the most damage to their steel is Drachen then Charlotte and then Antony."

"I must say Drachen is this really your first time practising Magic manipulation?" The energetic teacher said.

"Yes, Mr.Gideon" Drachen said with a smug look on his face. On his first attempt the magic flow was too rushed so he failed but on his second attempt, the magic smoothly flowed to the tip of the sword in large quantities, producing an explosive strike.

"Class is over! Please make your way to your next class in a calm and orderly manner" 

Despite him saying this, the reverse happened and the students who'd witnessed Drachens performance titled him as a 'Genius' and they also started questioning Drachen's relationship with Charlotte.

"You made quite the impression, happy?" Charlotte said after seeing the girls that gazed at Drachen in a 'First love' way.

"Haha, Jealous?" 

"Oh please, I couldn't care less!" Charlotte said before walking off muttering all the curses she knew under her breath.

Drachen, In fact, was feeling great and couldnt wait to get to his next class but before doing so, his phone started vibrating with the caller being labelled as 'Unknown'.  He was hesitant at first because he'd never got this kind of call since getting his phone number was near impossible but now that he was the Maxim clan head anything was possible.
