Talia now spends more time with Kyle and Ludwig than Susan, let alone Leo. The three of them trained tirelessly to face the future Talia had seen. Even so, their exercise has not shown significant results. Though the Magic Talent Test was already almost in sight. Somehow Talia felt the turning point of her life was when the Magic Talent Test took place, just like before.
Talia's busyness made the girl easily tired. His face was increasingly thin with sunken and hanging eyes. Susan who is now busy in her newspaper club activities finally inevitably becomes anxious. One afternoon the girl was waiting for Talia in front of the first grade only to be able to meet her best friend.
"Susan, are you here?" ask Talia who's out of class along with Kyle.
Susan glanced for a moment at Kyle with a dislike expression. The girl refocused on Talia and dragged her best friend into the dining room. Luckily Susan didn't touch her body and just dragged Talia's robe. The girl does not need to be thrown into the future of her best friend.
"Susan, where are you taking me?" ask Talia confused.
"Eat. How many days have you not eaten well. Look at your body like a walking skull" said Susan.
"Ta, but I have an appointment with Kyle. I can have dinner tonight" Talia refused as she glanced at Kyle. But what he glanced at was just shrugging his shoulders without being able to help anything.
Susan finally stopped her steps then looked at Kyle who was walking behind. "What are you guys actually doing? Kyle, you too, why did you let Talia become so thin and so powerless? Eating is the main thing of a witch. Well, for all humans in general. Without sufficient nutrition, the magic energy could also weaken. Anyway now we eat first just talk," urged the girl then drag Talia back to the dining room.
Talia finally complies, while Kyle also inevitably follows them for lunch. Leo followed shortly afterwards, leaving his friends at the Alchemy Department table.
"Long time didn't see you guys, man. What projects are you working on so busy?" leo asked as the group reached the dinner table.
"We're just practicing magic" Kyle replied shortly.
"Are you guys preparing for the Magic Talent Test?" ask Leo.
Kyle just said it. Neither he nor Talia wanted to make these two friends worry.
"I was trying to summon the spirit of wind and land" Talia said at last bluntly.
Susan and Leo looked surprised.
"You're quite ambitious, Talia" Susan commented as she poked the large ham and placed it on Talia's plate.
"so. But until now it hasn't worked" lamented Talia dismembering her flesh the size of a single mouthful.
Susan seemed to think for a moment. "You should have told me. I know you and Kyle are close. But I'm your best friend too."
"Me too!" chirping Leo with a mouth full of food.
"sorry. It seems I'm too focused, "sorry Talia who still holds another secret.
"I try to think. When you called your fire spirit, you were in a state of anger. You have a strong desire to attack your opponent. In the meantime, Undine was called because you wanted to save others. Isn't there actually always a pattern in spirit summoning techniques?" susan said later.
Susan's explanation makes sense. All this time Talia managed to summon her spirits because she was in such strong emotions. "Then what emotions are suitable for the spirit of wind and earth?" ask the girl later.
"Didn't the wind represent freedom? I think the wind spirit likes happy emotions. When you can move freely and enjoy your own magic. I've also read the Alchemy literature that alludes to it" Leo responded.
"Happy emotions?" Talia looked at Kyle who was sitting before her. The young man nodded briefly.
"What kind of happiness can summon the spirit of the wind?" Talia still doesn't understand.
"Something that euphoria brings, '" Leo added.
Everyone was silent and thought for a moment. Talia herself tried to think of things that were fun for her. There are many, such as the fact that he managed to become a student of Ramona Academy; his friendship with Kyle, Susan, Leo and even Ludwig; Talia was also happy when she managed to call Smoke and Undine. Even so, all those memories did not make him feel euphoria.
"Didn't you like flying? You told me once. How about you try to enjoy free flying with your broomstick while summoning the spirit of the wind?" susan then.
The simple proposal was finally immediately responded to with approval by his other friends. Even Talia also agreed that flying with her broomstick was the sensation she enjoyed the most during this time. Without a doubt Talia agreed to try Susan's proposal.
Talia has to wait for the weekend when her school is off, to be able to try Susan's proposal. Kyle banned the girl from trying to fly at night because it was too dangerous. The two agreed to train on the morning of the weekend.
Ludwig did not participate in the training session this time because he felt he was not needed. All this time he had only been a supplier of ferocious beasts as opposed to Kyle and Talia. After Talia told him she was going to practice flying, Ludwig decided to rest in his dorm.
The forbidden forest is now like home to Talia. He was very accustomed to going in and killing the various monsters in it. Talia is no longer afraid to venture into the forest as most monsters already recognize Talia as a dangerous predator. Because that morning Talia and Kyle traveled through the forest quite smoothly. The two of them stopped at a roomy place with trees that were not too close.
"From here. I'm going to watch over me with dark powers" Kyle said, stopping his steps.
Talia called her broomstick and prepared to fly. In one row, the girl also shot high up through the tops of the trees. The forest under his feet was getting smaller. A gentle whirlwind hit Talia's body and made the girl feel so free.
Talia flew around several times circling the vast forbidden forest. Kyle followed him with a dark force that could make him fly as well.
"Try you to summon the wind element now" Kyle ordered later.
Talia nodded, then returned her broomstick to the corners of the forest. His one hand raised up to summon an even stronger wind pushed his broomstick. Talia's flying faster. His soul feels so free. He really enjoyed the moment so intensely.
The girl again called out to the wind to speed up her broomstick. Now it soars so high that the entire expanse of forest and the Academy building looks very small down there. Talia was very happy. He toyed with his broomstick, continuously darting in all directions and enjoying the gusts of wind waving his long hair.
Suddenly a voice spoke in the girl's mind. "Are you so happy?" ask the voice in a childish tone.
Talia smiled broadly. It must be his spirit voice. "Yes! I'm really happy!" the girl was full of joy.
"I can give you more pleasure. Do you want to sign a contract with me?" ask the voice again.
"of course! I'm giving you the name Euphoria!" talia's exclaiming defeated the roar of the wind.
Suddenly a mini tornado whirlpool appeared next to Talia and flew with her. The tornado was probably only as big as a palm. Even so Talia could feel the powerful wind element energy from him.
"I love that name, Master," said Euphoria, the faceless mini tornado.
Talia smiled happily as she finally managed to summon one more spirit. The girl was about to turn her head towards Kyle who was supposed to be flying behind her. But apparently Talia has gone too far to explore. He could no longer see Kyle anywhere. Instead he realized that he was already above the valley where the dragon lived.
Suddenly inside Talia's head came an unfamiliar hissing sound. The voice was like speaking a language Talia could not understand. Instantly the girl was also stuck. That's the dragon's voice!
