daemonium legati

After 8 days:

Adrian's condition was getting worse everyday, his dreams were getting more vivid everyday. Adrian crippled 10 doctors till now, so all doctors were wary of approaching him. But today something different happened, something that will change the story's plot forever.

Zuri's POV:

It was 4:00, so we were having our last lecture of the day: Practical Mana Application. Which was held in a class painted in white, the class was stacked with thousands of different artifacts everywhere. In front of the class was a large space for duels.

Our teacher Ms. Sara entered the class. She was a beautiful lady in her early 30s but her long brown hair, brown eyebrows and green her made her look like a teen.

She stood in front of the class, "Hello Class, today we are going to practice on releasing mana weapons. Everyone in the class is going to try. I am going to choose students in alphabetic order."

(When you cultivate deeply you find yourself in a void, in the end of a void is a sphere[mana core]. The sphere's color vary depending on the user's elemental affiliation and The core's size depends on the user's mana capacity. The user captures the core and directs it's energy inside his body, when all the energy inside the sphere is drained by the user a weapon is formed)

Everyone in the class tried, some made fire arrows, other made air spear and more. Finally it's was my turn so I stood in front of the class and started cultivating.

'Let's see your capabilities Zuri.' Sara was excited, she really adored me as a student. Because After all I was the best in every subject.

You could hear the students whispering:

'Nice it is Zuri's turn.'

'Let us see what he can do.'

When I cultivated this time something strange happened, instead of entering the void as usual I entered somewhere undersea. Suddenly! the end of lecture's bell rang.

Ms. Sara was disappointed but she didn't care as she was eager to see my mana weapon. Not just her all the class are eager to see it.

Suddenly! A trident appeared in the underwater realm, I tried to reach it. When I reached it ome blurry visions burst into my head, it was so painful that I couldn't stop shouting. Back in the real world I was floating from the floor and a trident was appearing in my right hand. Slowly slowly my limbs were turning into water. But I couldn't see what was happening in real life.

The student were staring at awe, they have never seen something like this. Forget about them even Ms. Sara was staring at awe.

'I am sure this isn't normal mana manipulation but this isn't transformation either. I have read about this somewhere.'

'Wait could it be that Zuri.'

Suddenly! Something unimaginable happened. With a bang Ms. Sara disappeared from existence.

There were more visions bursting into my head and the pain was getting inbearable. Suddenly, My mind went blank and I returned to the real world. The trident disappeared and my limbs returned to normal.

'What happened?' I asked the class

'Nothing happened, as you see we are just waiting for Mr. Jaleel to come.'

"Wait who is Mr. Jaleel? I am sure that we don't have a teacher with that name."

'What are you saying Zuri? He is our Practical Mana Application teacher.' A girl replied

"What are you saying? Ms. Sara is our practical mana application teacher."

'What are these guys saying? I am sure they are trying to prank me or something like this.'

'Zuri are you ok? We don't have a teacher with that name.' The same girl replied

The girl looked at her watch, it was exactly 4:00.

'Zuri come and sit, it is 4:00 and our lesson is about to start.

'What, impossible it isn't 4:00.'

He looked at his watch and saw that it was exactly 4:00.

"How is that possible? What is happening?" Zuri said

A man in his early 30s entered the room. He looked exactly like Sara; long brown hair, brown eyebrows and green eyes.

Bai was alone in a meeting room. The meeting room was a small square room painted in grey. He was wearing a plain white suit and his hair was combed in a neat way.

He called someone: "Hugo is everything going as planned?"

"Yes sir everything is going perfectly."

Suddenly! A door appeared and two demons were plain black suits emerged from behind it.

"Welcome to our humbke kingdom. We highly appreciate your visit."

"Commander Bai, first of all our liege have been pleased by your attitude towards our kingdom. He says that signing this treaty will be a huge asset for both the kingdoms."

Bai smiled, "Well that is good news. Before we start negotiating please take a seat."

The two demons sat.

"Sound chains." Bai said

Invisible sound chains covered the two demons from head to toe.

"What the." The two demons were surprised

Bai stood from his place and walked towards the two demons. He was shrouded in a black aura and the murderous intent he released was demonic.

"Now now calm down. Nothing is gonna happen to you as long as you answer my questions." Bai took 2 plain daggers from his pocket.

The two demons were afraid but they would rather die than to betray their kingdom. "We will never betray our kingdom."

Bai's expression was grim, "I will take the answer I want from both of you. It's time for torture." Bai laughed in an insane way.
