The Wiz
Chapter 5: Theories

The first day of being a student at Topaz academy was not something to be proud of. Being forced to get up early to attend the first hour of lessons, really requires a lot of sacrifice. Classes will stop accepting late pupils if the sun is seen starting to appear. Yes, the first lesson of being a student in this academy is that it must be faster than the rising sun. Ah, the point is, the new disciples were actually tortured for their first year of study.

In Mr.'s class. Hollous, it is clear that many students yawn due to drowsiness several times. They could not immediately choose to sleep in the classroom even though Mr. Hollous hasn't arrived yet. They waited for half an hour in the room.

Camoline took a long breath. He gazed once more at the door before opening the thick book that became the teaching material today. The tome of many magic theories is not really that important to him. Because after all, he could be said to be a part of history who knew most of the theories in this book.

"Everyone, I apologize for my delay" said Mr. Hollous so goes into class. He stared at the new disciples for a while before ignoring them and focusing on the thick book he was carrying. The glasses had already perched his nose as soon as he raised his head back. He will begin his learning.

"Okay, new students. I will explain first the level of the magician to you. Maybe some of you already know a glimpse of this." Mr. Hollous turned his body towards the blackboard. He started writing a few words and numbers there. Although he could write it with magic power, yet he did not seem to want to do that.

After all, this class is like being cast a spell so that no magic can work. That's what Camoline felt when she was about to try to move the quill pen over her desk.

"The "division rate for the moment is 9. Namely Arentice, Texis, Mage, Magi, Magus, Sage, Witch, Sorcery, and Conjuration. Although these nine levels are very common, there is an additional level where only a few people chosen by the Gods can reach them. The level name is Wiz. In this last level, one would have boundless power."

Camoline blinked her eyes a few times. He knew about the Wiz's level. Because of his death also for not being able to defeat one of the Wiz's storied witches. Camoline's fist strengthened as she remembered it. He took a long breath. The goal has been determined since he woke up again after hundreds of years. He should be able to avenge his clan. It was not because of past events that he wanted to defeat the black clan, but there was something else that only the two clans knew.

Staring at the thick book before him, Camoline looked at a twelve-colored emblem that became a symbol of the sacred Opal stone. Who would have thought, if the stone will indeed choose its owner. And maybe it was his destiny to have the stone. Although swallowing the stone round and round is not a good action.

Camoline's focus became completely shifted to the page explaining the Opal stone. He became aware of some new things about the sacred stone that was currently inside his body. He knew, without swallowing it even though the stone will be fused with the body of the owner when it is absorbed. But right now, Camoline did not know what to do to absorb the Opal stone. In the book he was currently reading alone, there was no explanation for how to absorb the holy stone. Perhaps, because the existence of the stone can not be predicted its presence and most likely the chosen one must be able to do it alone. That means, Camoline must find her own way to absorb the stone slowly that is now in her body.

"...so it takes about 2 more years to go up a level for a witch. And generally, witches can only reach the Magus level at the age of 40 years or more. Because the higher the level you have, then to raise the level will be more difficult." Mr Explanation. Hollous made Camoline wake up from her daydream. He lifted his head and found that the blackboard was filled with various kinds of graffiti. He turned his gaze toward the hourglass on the teacher's desk. The top is over. Was he thinking about how to absorb Opal stones?

"Okay, class's over for today. For our next meeting, I hope you're not daydreaming much in my class." Mr.'s words. Hollous as if slapping Camoline's class. He grimaced hearing that sentence. Slowly, he got up and walked out of the classroom following the other students. He walked the very back of the others with the thick book he was holding.

"The next class, is magic techniques, right?"

Camoline turned her head towards Lily who started approaching herself with two other girls. He raised the eyebrows. This morning, he did not leave with his roommate. His head still turned towards them until it stopped right in front of him.

"I think this class will be very annoying considering that Mr. Barcus will be his teacher" said Violetta.

"No problem, right? The magic technique this time must be the basic one," Camoline said. The three girls in front of him nodded in affirmation. But still, to the new students of the white dormitory, Barcus was quite a bitch. Or even very annoying.

"Yes, and it will be very useful for those of us who are still at the beginner level" said Violetta. Camoline exhaled her coarse breath. Actually, he does not like to be reminded of this. And Lily too.

"Don't remind me of that, Vio. Knowing that it took us about 2 years to move up the ranks, it made me feel crazy" said Lily, who was confirmed by Rashi. By the way, the youngest girl has been busy with food in her mouth ever since she left the class. Hollouse.

"You're right. It makes me even more upset at this reality" Camoline said. He looked around where the corridor began to quiet.

"We should either go to Mr. Barcus's class immediately or be punished for being late" he said, then walked quickly with the three girls. Although in theory, it took them 2 years to ascend the magic level, but Camoline was very sure there was another way so that she could level up quickly. That would be very risky. But at the very least, he would not be too pitiful if he could go up one rank only.

While walking, Camoline accidentally crosses paths with a girl who is likely to be both new students. However, there was a strange aura enveloping the girl. Making Camoline's steps stop instantly. His head moved following the girl who disappeared at the turn.

"Camoline, what's wrong?" ask Lily curiously. Camoline shook her head slowly. He walked back with a question that immediately popped into his head. Questioning the girl. Since it was less than an hour, the girl had already risen by as much as 2 levels when she crossed paths with him. It was impossible for that girl to be the incarnation of a Goddess.

'That's impossible, ' Inner Camoline.
