Worshipper Arc: Chapter 1: New Transfers.
In the divine realm...
The God King Daimos received the news that Hilliam has been slain.
"It seems this being is more powerful than I thought. Hilliam was a more powerful God and he fell, it seems this being does have great power. Finally, someone challenging after aeons of conquering perhaps a new Magic King will ascend to the throne which I will then destroy."
In the Magic/ Mortal Realm.
It has been a week since the Magic Duels concluded and students have been given a week off relaxation due to the intense duels fought.
Valoran and Artemsia make preparations for the academy.
Valoran puts on his uniform and gets ready for the day.
After getting ready he is greeted by Aelina.
"Morning my sweet genius, how did you sleep last night?" She asks with an overwhelming energetic bright smile.
Valoran faces her and then proceeds to answer her question.
"Mother I lack the understanding of where you manage to draw this energy from in the morning. To answer your question I have slept well and I am ready for the day" He replies while sharing a grin with her.
"I'm glad to hear it, my son I have made you and Artemsia lunch please don't forget them," Aelina speaks with a positive attitude.
Artemsia then arrives in the living space and is also ready to head to the academy.
"Morning Artemsia you look well rested '' Aelina speaks with the same energetic tone she used with Valoran moments earlier.
"Yes, I have been getting good sleep since last night. You also look like you have been getting good rest yourself" Artemsia comments almost sarcastically.
"As much as I love these conversations we should be going" Valoran instructs while simultaneously heading toward the door.
Artemsia follows him out the door.
"See you later, be careful." Aelina says, waving her hand.
"See you later mother"
"See you soon"
They both reply and head toward the academy.
"Artemsia we will be getting new transfers today" Valoran reveals.
"Is that so?... Well, can't wait to meet them" Artemsia speaks.
"You have met them before" Valoran additionally reveals.
Artemsia glances toward Valoran for a moment and turns her attention back in front of her.
They both arrive at the academy and enter the class hall where they are being awaited by: Selina, Biatrix and Atticus.
"Morning Valoran and Artemsia" Selina was just as friendly as ever.
"Good morning" Biatrix and Atticus also greet both of them.
"Morning." Valoran friendly greets them. Morning to all of you" Artemsia greets them also.
Professor Asparata enters the class hall in high spirits.
"Students please settle down." She kindly instructs.
The hall became quiet almost immediately.
"Thank you. Now before I begin today's lecture please let me introduce new transfer students. You may enter." She invites both the new students inside the hall.
One male and female enter the class hall in the academy's uniform.
They both introduce themselves.
"I am Merial."
"My name is Demonlise"
"It's a pleasure to meet you all," Both say at the same time boring their heads.
The other students including Biatrix, Selina and Atticus are confused as to why Merial was a third-year student from Halivaara's 2nd academy and Demonlise a first-year from Halivaara's second academy.
"Wait, aren't they from the second academy?"
"I'm also confused"
"Please take up any seats you wish." Professor Asparata calmly instructs both of them.
This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.
Demonlise and Merial take a look at the front row and notice Valoran and his friends and proceed to take a seat next to them.
"Surprised?" Merial asks Valoran with sarcasm.
"Not necessarily I knew both of you would be joining the class" Valoran counters with a smirk.
"Of course, you did" Demonlise with amazement.
"Alright, you can continue the conversation after the lesson. Let's begin today's lecture." Professor Asparata instructs.
"Today we will learn about the vast universe and what it contains and go even beyond the boundaries of the universe." Professor Asparata announces.
The students in the hall are excited to hear about the topic of the lecture.
"Can't wait to hear about the universe"
"This seems fascinating"
"Let me make sure I can take as many notes as I can"
The students are eagerly waiting for the lecture to begin.
"Before we can understand Universes, we must first understand what makes up one Universe. Let's begin, please listen well students. This gets complicated from here on, make sure you take down as many notes as you can." Professor Asparata advises the students in a friendly manner.
The students are all staring at the Professor and paying her full attention feathers in arms to take notes.
"Now then. Universes are infinite in size. They contain realities in the form of marbles which themselves are infinite in size." She explains.
"In the future when someone uses the term "marble" it's just a different word for reality alright?" Professor Asparata asks excitedly to teach.
Some of the students look confused and are staring at each other.
Professor Asparata chuckles a little, seeing her precious students in confusion.
"It seems some of you don't know what I mean by marble. Let me break it down for you, the term “marble” refers to what plane of existence we are in. For example, a dot would be a zero-dimensional space. A line would be a one-dimensional space since it now has length to it.
A square would be a two-dimensional space since we now have a shape. And from there we have three-dimensional spaces like you and me shapes with depth and volume and this continues to infinity with each marble being in a higher plane of reality than the previous. Professor Asparata questions.
No one had a question and understood what she was teaching.
"Well let's continue then. What I have just mentioned is all contained within a single cosmic sheet. A universe contains infinite cosmic sheets to act like a barrier between marbles. Any questions?" Professor Asparata asks.
A demon male student raises his hand.
"I have one Professor"
"Please ask away" Professor Asparata kindly instructs.
"Am I right to understand that a single cosmic sheet has endless amounts of marbles? And that one Universe has endless cosmic sheets?" The student is asking in curiosity.
"Yes, you are correct, thank you for asking. I'm sure many had the same question but are a little shy to ask" Professor Asparata replies.
The students have no further questions and curiosity takes over and the students are waiting to hear what is even beyond the universes.
“Just to recap so far. One Universe contains infinite cosmic sheets. One single sheet contains an endless amount of realities in the form of marbles. Marbles are endless in size, containing an incalculable amount of galaxies. Previous Marbles can’t perceive the ones after due to being in a higher dimensional plane, the next marble views the previous ones as an infinitesimal dot.” Professor Asparata quickly recaps.
“The previous Cosmic sheets also can’t perceive the ones after, being viewed as an infinitesimal line by the next ones, due to being higher dimensional.”
"If you believe that this is the end you are mistaken.There are an infinite amount of Universes. The next Universe views the one before it as an infinitesimal dot. This creates one Multiverse.”
“Now, there are also an infinite number of Multiverses and same thing as before with Universes and Marbles, the next Multiverse views the one before as an infinitesimal dot. This makes up one Megaverse.”
“Finally, there are an endless number of Megaverses, with the ones after viewing the previous are infinitesimal.” Professor Asparata finishes explaining.
"Any questions in class?" Professor Asparata asks.
A student then raises her hand. It was an elvish student.
"Yes," Professor Asparata urges her to ask the question.
"What about the difference in laws and people?
" Good question Fiora." Professor Asparata praises the student for her excellent question.
"As for people or inhabitants, we don't know much since we cannot interact with one another, we are all bound by the reality we are in. Any questions?" Professor Asparata asks.
"Yes, I understand" The student once again replies.
"As for your last point of the question. Yes, all these follow different laws, mathematics, concepts, and principles and inhabitants are bound by them." Professor Asparata explains.
"Each marble contains infinite possibilities which is a beautiful factor. We can live freely, not just be bound by one possibility." Professor Asparata explains.
"Does anyone have any other questions?" Professor Asparata asks.
The students are all amazed at just how big everything seems to be.
"This was amazing"
"We are small, aren't we?"
"What a great lecture"
"Thank you for listening to the session that is about to end. As you now understand, we are small in the vastness of the entire cosmos." Professor Asparata shares with amazement.
After the informative lecture ends in the form of the bell ringing Valoran, Demonlise, Atticus, Selina, Biatrix and Merial make their way into the cafeteria to have a chat.
They arrive at the cafeteria where Valoran unpacks his lunch and begins to eat with his fellow friends.
Merial then begins to explain how she is here.
"I know it seems confusing, we have asked your principals if it was possible to transfer here, I also asked to be set back two years to be in the same class as you Valoran," Merial explains.
"She's right I also wanted to be in the same class with you after what you did for me" Demonlise explains himself.
"Valoran you showed me great strength and what it means to protect the ones that are weak and unable to protect themselves, I humbly wish to learn from you" Merial begs with sincerity.
"I have no problems with that. I am glad both of you are here. I accept you in my group" Valoran reveals.
"Thank you" Merial and Demonlise reply in relief.
The others kindly introduce themselves to them
"I am Atticus Maverick"
"I am Artemsia"
"I am Biatrix Alston"
After they have lunch.
A dark figure in a dark rope and hood watches Valoran from far away from the outside through the cantine window.
They then make their way back to the class where the next lecture begins.
The lecture was about Magic combinations and how to combine different types of magic to achieve greater offensive and defensive magic.
"Now students one way to combine a strong offensive spell is with water and lighting magic. You must be careful, however, combining too much water or lighting and disturbing the balance will cause the spell to backfire on you. " Professor Asparata explains with caution.
After a couple of demonstrations and other combinations of spells, the day was done, and the students are leaving the Academy grounds.
Valoran and Artemsia say goodbye to their friends.
"See you tomorrow," Valoran says.
"Goodbye," Selina says
"Have a nice evening" Biatrix also says.
"Goodbye," Merial says
"See you tomorrow," Demonlise says bowing his head.
Valoran and Artemsia make their way home and while walking Artemsia and Valoran walk side by side gazing upon each other as the dark hooded figure follows them in the shadows.
"You feel his presence too?" Artemsia asks quietly.
"Since the Magic Duels concluded someone is following me, for now just remain calm. We don't know who or what he serves if I don't involve myself in situations where I need to use my powers, I am sure whoever this person serves will lose interest pretty soon." Valoran explains.
"And if not?" Artemsia asks.
Then they will be sorry to stand against me," Valoran says...
