Kapitel 258: Rejected

*FLASHBACK*

Austin and Gwen raced through the fields, the tall grasses brushing against their legs as they ran. They were both grinning from ear to ear, their cheeks flushed with excitement.

As they reached a clearing in the field, they slowed down to catch their breath. They were there to practice their spells, and they had brought their books and wands with them.

Gwen flipped open her book to the page they had been studying, and Austin did the same. They read the incantations together, slowly at first, making sure they had the pronunciation just right. Then they practiced the wand movements, carefully following each other's lead.

As they repeated the spells, they started to get more confident, their voices growing louder and more assured. The grass around them rustled, and a gentle breeze picked up, carrying the sweet scent of wildflowers.
