“By the way, Master. How were you flying?” I asked.

“Oh yea, Let’s teach you flying first. Wait! You all! Let’s start with flying. ” Master said.

“Yes! Sir!” Me, Alec and Mei said.

“Okay listen. It’s simple. Just make sure your spell doesn’t break. Visualize, Air flowing around you and from your feet. Or you can visualize air in the form of wings.” Master said.

"Wind push is easier for me. Look! WIND PUSH!” I shouted and jumped in air.

Now I need to maintain myself in air. I try to stand in air. I do it! Standing is easier.

“Now try to lean forward.” Master said.

“I’ll help him.” Emilia said and floated towards me.

“Okay, let me try.”

I try to lean forward, but, I can't control it!

“ARGHHH!” I shouted as I was going to fall. But good thing Emilia was there to catch me from my back.

“Saved..” I relived.

“Try to visualize wind pushing you like you do with your feet.” Emilia said. While holding me from my shirt.

“Let me try.” I said and shouted, “WIND PUSH!”

But, Again all the wind comes from my feet. Emilia barely manages to hold me.

“Visualize from your body.” Emilia said.

“I can’t do it.” I said in whimper.

“Tch!” Emilia made an angry face and went up in the sky while carrying me.

“If you don't use properly. You will die.” Emilia said and dropped me.

"ARGHHGG" I'm falling from the sky.

“WIND PUSH!” I enchanted, but again I just accelerated my speed towards ground.

I need to crouch fast.

I’ll hit the ground if I don’t. I expand my legs and again enchant, “WIND PUSH"

I start rotating.

“SHT! I just complicated it.”

I’ll hit the ground if I don’t do it properly.

Then I remember how I used wind push with Mud walls.

I stop rotating! I’m falling on my back.

“Shall I?” Egan asked Master.

“No. Wait.” Master said.

I just need to use wind push in midair with high boost.

“WIND PUSH! X100" I shouted and visualized wind bursting from my back.

I closed my eyes thinking I’ll hit the ground. But, just a few meters from ground, I’m in air.

I’m floating now.

I try to lean forward, but again fall!

“I think I got it!” I said while I laid on ground.

“Good! Next, Alec and Mei.” Master said.

Emilia comes down near me.

“Well done! Now you learned how to fly.” Emilia said with a smile.

“Thank you, Emilia.” I said and stood up.

“Let me try again.” I said and continued with, “on close inspection. This is different from wind push. I need to have flow same from all directions. I need to call it something different.”

"How about Wind blowing?” Emilia said.

“No.” I said.

"Hmm. Wind burst?” Emilia said.

“It’s cool but still no.” I said.

“Soaring Wind?” Emilia said.

“That’s nice actually. Works! I’ll name it, Soaring Wind!” I said.

“That’s nice enough. I guess.” Emilia said.

“Soaring Wind!” I enchanted and again float. This is better now I can float in air.

“Good job, big brother!” Emilia said.

"Awe, it’s all thanks to you.” I said.

“Ahaha. Let’s look at how they are doing. Seems like master is telling them how to do it.” Emilia said while laughing.

"Yea.” We head over to them by floating.

“How's it going?” I asked them.

“Look for yourself.” Egan said and pointed out to Alec and Mei.

"Show-Show!” I said in enthusiasm.

Alec and Mei had their eyes closed.

And they start to float.

“Why didn’t you tell me there’s another way?” I asked in shock.

“Coz, you are hard-headed. It’s for calm people. You need to be super calm for this to work.” Master said.

“I’m a calm person. Probably.” I said.

“Sure.” Master said mockingly.

“Oh, Look they are going above too.” Egan said.

Alec and Mei have their eyes closed, but they are floating in the air. Above Two or Three meters from ground.

“They are taking it slow.” I said.

“Yeah. But, I think they should be fine.” Master said and Continued, “Open your eyes, you two.” Master said to Alec and Mei.

They open their eyes slowly and they could float easily.

“Yay!” Mei said.

“Whua!” Alec said.

They float around us.

"This was easy for you two.” I said.

“Sure was.” They said and laughed a little.

“Alright then, we are ready continue now.” I said.

“Egan and Seji come with me. Rune and Mei, Alec and Ariel. Go train. And Emilia just watch okay.” Master said.

“Yes.” We replied and went a bit far from Alec and others. While Emilia was just watching.

We are a bit far from everyone now.

“Now after you saw Egan and my spar. Try to punch me again seji. I’ll stay still.” Master said.

“Alright.” I replied.

“It would be fun to see you guys.” Egan said.

“ARGGGH" I scream. Black mana surrounds me. Its imperfect unlike master's before. But, still I can feel power.

“Wind push!” I said and jumped straight in air.

Right in air I again cast wind push. And try to hit master directly from above.

“HAAAAAAA" I Shout! Almost I can hit him! But, Master just put his hand up and caught my fist with his right hand easily. He threw me back. I successfully land on feet but that was close.

“Good try!!” Egan said while clapping. And continued, “But, Don't forget he's quick to attack.”

“I see.” I muttered.

He was casting spells right when I could go near him.

“WIND PUSH!” I fly above, and again try to go straight for his head !

He puts his hand up to catch my fist!

“WIND PUSH!” I use wind push with my left leg and go in right, while in the air and from right I again use Wind push to hit his back.

“Blow” Master enchanted!! And a blast happened right below my belly! I fly back again. This time I was super close to hitting him.

I fall on ground. I stand up, and again fight.

“WIND PUSH.”

“Blow away!” Master enchanted. But before his spell could hit me I used “BLACK HOLE.”

And call off black hole. But, right after that master threw another blast, and I was flying again.

This continued for a some time.

The sun almost setting down. It’s evening.

“We can continue this tomorrow.” Master said.

“No. One more round.“ I said while breathing heavily.

“Alright. But last.” Master said.

“OH!” Egan said and comes near me and said something in my ear.

I nodded my head.

“That’s a good plan. Why didn’t I think.” I said.

“Magic Skin.” I said and dark magic covered my arms and legs.

I walk towards master.

“GROUND ZERO!” I shouted.

The ground turns black. But, it doesn’t have feeling like master one did.

“Black hole!” I summon a black hole on my left hand as a shield.

“Ground Zero, is a spell to boost powers of other dark magic. You summoned this to power up your black hole. I see. But, this doesn’t seem right.” Master said.

I walk towards master. He uses blast on my belly but! I use black Hole shield to suck it all up!

“BLAST!” Master shouted blast, but they won't come up on surface from ground.

I reach master and land a punch in his belly. But I have barely left any power to pack a punch so, it’s weak like hell. But, I land it!

“I landed a punch. Finally. But, I feel powerless.” I said.

Black hole, Magic Skin, Ground zero all get dispelled.

“That wasn’t ground zero. Was it?” Master asked.

“Hehehe, I can’t pull up such high level spell just by seeing it. Egan told me it was a boost up spell, and I just used a black hole on ground. But upside down. So, that it can suck up all the spells from ground directly.” I said.

“That’s clever.” Master said.

“Egan came up with that. Ahahah" I said we laugh a little.

“No doubt about it.” Master said.

Meanwhile, On other sides, Alec and Mei were training with Ariel and Rune.

“Blood control is special magic used by the vampires. The name specifies the power itself. The power to control blood.” Rune said.

“But, how can I control blood?” Mei asked.

“Hmm. Look closely.” Rune said while pulling out some bags out of his back pocket. They were transparent and contained blood in them.

“I collect blood of what I kill. And store it. You never know what type of enemy you will face or will they even let you have a chance to get their blood. So, I do this.” Rune said.

“I see.” Mei replied but she was somewhat disgusted from that.

Rune pours out the blood on ground. And says, “Watch now.”

There was a snake's burrow near.

Rune licks a little blood drop from the bag and says, “look at blood now.”

Blood forms into a small soldier. Around half a foot or so tall with sword.

Rune commands his little soldier to go inside the burrow. The soldier jumps in burrow and brings out the snake dead.

“Saw? That’s how you control blood. You can control blood while its still in an organism. And tear them apart from inside too.” Rune said.

“That’s disgusting." Mei said while being disgusted.

“Yea, But that’s how you got to survive in front of enemy. An enemy would never feel disgusted to kill you.” Rune said.

“That’s so true..” Mei said.

Rune sits near snake's dead body and licks a little blood from snake.

“Ew!! What the heck!!” Mei screamed.

“What? I’m collecting that blood. Easier than squeezing it out of the body. Oh, do you want to try?” Rune asked mei.

“Hell no! Uh! Never mind. Do what you were doing.” Mei said.

“if you want you can have some.” Rune said.

“No , thank you!” Mei said.

“Oh actually that will make a good practice.” Rune said and threw snake’s body near mei.

“Gulp* Okay.” Mei said and tries to bite on snake. She makes weird face.

“I can’t do it!” Mei shouted.

“Oh, Look , Seji is fighting Master.” Rune said to Mei to divert her focus.

“Where?” Mei asked.

Rune stabs snakes body with his finger and gets a little blood on his finger and puts it in Mei's mouth.

“Done.” Rune said and pulled his finger out.

“WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING?!” Mei said but her eyes went pale. She heard a large heartbeat.

“That’s how it feels to be Blood control vampire. We are terrifying.” Rune said.

Mei is blank. She closes her eyes and opens them. Her canine teeth become Sharp a little.

“Now try moving the body of dead snake.” Rune said.

“Oh okay.” Mei said and commanded body to move but blood burst out of the dead body from the direction Mei was trying to move.

“Good try. But, it clearly didn’t work out. You need to take it slowly.” Rune said.

“Okay.” Mei replied.

“Actually, let’s get a step back. Try controlling. Blood only first. Separate blood and body. Try not to harm the body of snake though.”

“Oh okay.” Mei replied.

“I call it blood humiliation. I have used to against my enemies when I needed to get information from them.” Rune said.

“It’s not working anymore.” Mei said.

“The effect wore off. You only tasted blood from my hand, no wonder it wore off that easily. You can control blood of enemy depending on the amount of blood. So, you always need to be quick before your effect wears off.” Rune said.

“I see.” Mei replied. And continued, “So, What now?” She asked.

“Take a sip of blood again.” Rune said.

“I Hate being a vampire!!” Mei shouted but continued to practise.

MEANWHILE, WITH ALEC AND ARIEL.

They were standing in front of each other.

“I’m not always into fighting, but we will start from offensive spells. Then we can go to defensive and healing.”

“Copy me, Alec.” Ariel said.

“Alright.” Alec replied.

“Sword of the Light. Appear before me.” Ariel said and a sword made of light magic appeared in front of her. She holds her sword.

“Sword of Light. Appear.” Alec repeated and he also obtained the light sword.

“Good. Let’s see how durable it is now.” Ariel said and charged towards Alec.

“Huh” Alec replied, but he already was in his fighting stance.

Ariel breaks Alec's light sword easily.

“What just happened!?!” Alec said in shock.

“Nothing. You are just slow.” Ariel said.

“But, I didn’t even see you coming. My eyes were open even though I wasn’t ready.” Alec replied.

“Light Magic surely increases my speed, but not very much.” Ariel said.

“Can you demonstrate?” Alec asked.

“Hmm, Look at that tree?” Ariel said.

“Yea.” Alec replied.

“I’ll cut it down in 10 pieces equal. Tell me if you can see me cutting.” Ariel said, and they went to tree.

“Alright. Cut now.” Alec said.

Ariel enchanted, “Sword of Light, Appear before me.” Ariel obtains her light sword.

Ariel starts moving her sword on tree. Its untraceable movement. Just like from before when Egan and Mater were fighting with hands in air. It’s that fast!

And just in fractions of seconds the tree is cut into pieces.

“You can count it.” Ariel said.

“1...2..3..... it’s 16 pieces in total.” Alec said.

“Aw GOD! I MESSED UP! Don’t mention it to anyone though. Got that?” Ariel said to Alec.

“But, you were indeed fast. Just like Master and Egan were fighting before.” Alec said.

“Yeah. Anyway, let’s go to another tree, and now it’s your turn. We will start with this.” Ariel said.

“Alright.” Alec said.

They go to another nearby tree, and Alec starts cutting tree. He fails.

“Awe, don’t worry try again.” Ariel said.

After a few tries Alec cuts the tree perfectly like Ariel did.

“You are fast grabber.” Ariel said.

“Probably. Somehow this all feels nostalgic.” Alec said.

“I can feel that. Ahaha. But, anyway, next lesson. Try making Magic Skin with Light magic.” Ariel said.

“Magic Skin.” Alec enchanted and his Skin covered up with light Magic.

“Let’s spar now. And make sure you don’t break your light swords easily.” Ariel said.

“Aren’t you going to wear light skin?” Alec asked.

“Don’t worry about me. Let’s continue.” Ariel said.

Alec mutters, “And she said she’s not into fighting.”

“You said anything?” Ariel asked.

“Nothing. I said let’s start.” Alec made excuse and they started Spar.

The Sun is almost setting.

Mei and Rune's training session was coming to end.

“Grrrr. Yay!!! I DID SEPARATE BLOOD FROM BODY WITHOUT DAMAGING BODY.” Mei shouted in joy.

“Good job. That’s all for now. Remember the things I told you and we will continue this tomorrow or some other time now.” Rune said to Mei.

“Yes!!” Mei said.

“Alright let’s go to Egan and others.” Rune said, and they started walking towards Egan, Master and Seji. Who had finished up their training too.

“Hey guys!!” Mei said while waving at them.

“Oh hey!!” Egan waved back.

They reach to Egan and others and started talking.

Meanwhile, with Alec and Ariel.

“HAAA!” Ariel slashed and Alec went back flying.

Alec's cloths look dirty.

“Alright. Enough. Let’s head back to Egan and others.” Ariel said.

“Y-Yes, Mam.” Alec said while breathing heavily and sitting on ground.

They walk towards Master and others.

They reach to Egan and others and started talking about how training went.

“How was training for you Mei?” I asked Mei.

“It was great. I learned how to separate blood from body without harming the body, and other stuff about Blood control Vampires.” Mei said in enthusiasm.

“Sounds great. How about you Alec?” I asked.

“It was great. Learned how to use light magic in other ways.” Alec replied.

“Mei is fast grabber. But, She will need some practice.” Rune said.

“Awe. Alec is strong actually but I could only teach him Offensive Magic for now. No Healing or other stuff.” Ariel said.

“It's alright. I know one healing spell. It works mostly.” Alec said.

“Well, I told Mei how to use healing spells, but we are not sure. Blood Control is great at healing poison in blood.” Rune said.

“Whoa! Vampires seem awesome.” I said.

“Yea, but hey we taught Seji some nice moves!” Egan said.

“Ahahah true.” Master replied.

I just noticed Emilia wasn’t here .

“Hey, where’s Emilia?” I asked.

“She went to take a nap under that tree. Look, She's there.” Egan said while pointing out at Emilia.

“Ahahah, She looks cute while sleeping.” I said.

“Yeah. Well, you guys go ahead. I’ll carry her and reach guild house right behind you guys.” Master said.

“I could carry her, Master. You should be tired.” Egan said.

“Or I can carry her.” Ariel said.

“N-"

“I don’t mind either.” Rune said.

I was going to say something similar but

Master said , “No, just go. I'll carry her just fine.”

“If you say so.” Egan said, and we started walking towards guild house.

We reach guild house. It was silenter than usual.

“Welcome back! Everyone. Where’s master?” Serina asked.

“He's coming. He will be here in five minutes or so.” Egan replied.

“Oh Alright.” Serina said and continued her paperwork.

“Whoa , they silent.” I said.

“Yea, cause Dragnia is here. They don’t want to disturb him.” Egan said.

“Oh, I see.” I said with a little chuckle.

“Anyway, let’s take shower and visit city. They must have finished lighting the Streets for Prince tomorrow.” Ariel said.

“Good plan, Ariel.” Egan said.

“And I can do some shopping! Mei join me!” Ariel said to Mei.

“You're shopping...” Rune said.

“Hehehe” Mei and Ariel laughed.

We went in our rooms to take shower. My cloths were dirty, so I washed them and dried them too. But, they still give a feeling of moisture. I wear them after bath somehow.

“I need an extra pair of cloths for night. These aren’t comfortable for sleep at all. *sigh* I can buy them since we are going for shopping.” I said to myself.

I go downstairs after 15 or so minutes. Egan was also sitting there on sofa.

“Oh, where are others?” I asked.

“They still busy taking showers. And why did you wear your same cloths again. Aren’t they tough to sleep in?” Egan asked me.

“Yea, but I have only this pair. When I got transported here, I didn’t get any cloths from my world.” I said.

“I see. Come let’s go in my room.” Egan said.

“Sure.” I replied, and we went in his room.

He opens his closet and asks, “which one you like?”

“You don’t need to worry. I’ll buy now. Since we are heading out. I can buy some night wear.” I replied.

“It’s fine. Just return me when you buy your's. Here, try this.” Egan gave me his cloths which he wears usually.

“Uh, Aren’t they all the same?” I asked Egan.

“Yep, they are. It’s my style man!” Egan said.

“Su-sure. But, I think I’ll pass man.” I said to Egan.

“Awe, but I think it will look good on you.” Egan said.

“But, if I wear that. I’ll steal your style. So, No No!” I said.

“Fine. Up to you.” Egan said.

“Woii! Egan and Seji. Come down!” I hear a voice from downstairs.

“I think we should go down.” I said to Egan.

“Yea, Let’s go.” Egan said, and we went down.

“Where you guys were?” Ariel asked

“Nowhere. I was just showing Seji my cloths if he needed.” Egan said.

“No one needs your cloths. Your sense of clothing is way too off.” Rune said.

“Eh, it’s so cool though.” Egan said.

“Sure..” Rune said.

“Let’s go.” Ariel said and door opens on its own.

Reiz is walking in from door.

“Oh, Welcome back!” Serina said.

“Oh, Thanks. What’s up guys? Hi Ariel, Rune and newbies. And what’s up dragon boi.” Reiz said to Egan.

“Hi Reiz.” Rune and Ariel greeted Reiz.

“Who you're calling Dragon boi you water freak?” Egan said to Reiz.

“Tch. It’s Reiz not water freak, Dragon boi.” Reiz said.

“It’s Egan not dragon boi, Water freak.” Egan said.

“Oh Sure. I’ll put your flames out in a second.” Reiz said.

“Wait, did he just challenged Egan!?!” I said in shock.

“Nope. They are always fighting with each other.” Ariel said.

“Try it, water freak.” Egan said.

Ariel punches on Egan's head and drags him out.

“Reiz, want to join us on shopping?” Ariel asked.

“It's fine, wait a second. Hey, Serina. Tell master the quest is done. I’m heading out with Rune and others.” Reiz said while throwing a small bag to Serina, which he was holding.

“Alright then, we are off to shopping.” Ariel said in joy and we head out.

TO BE CONTINUED...
