Chapitre 15: Chapter 14: Pellego Project
"I forgot to practice the spell Pellego!!!". Maria just realized that she wasted her weekend.
Another monday in the Prestige class at Oglourine Academy, the most youthful team of the year. They are Maria, Esserine, Lucas, Kayden, Adelphia, and Phoebe. 6 different people with unique abilities and gifted talents.
"Who's your Professor?". Adelphia asked while reading her book.
"Miss Lorey Bailey". Maria was crying, she knew that her Professor would not let her pass.
"Oh then you're screwed, you and Esserine literally destroyed her classroom on the first day of the semester". Adelphia closed the book.
"President, please help me, I promise I'll behave". Maria looked at Adelphia with puppy eyes. "Please~".
"She can't help a brainless girl like you". Esserine mocked Maria directly in front of everyone.
"When did you get the nerve to trigger me?". Maria crossed her arms and stood firmly.
"Just now". Esserine urbanely replied.
"Enough!". Adelphia's voice was powerful enough to make everyone shut up within milliseconds.
"Pellego requires many steps to follow but it's not hard to cast, as a Prestige student, you should be able to learn it after 2 or 3 times doing it". Adelphia expected Maria to fit her standard as a Prestige student.
"You got this Maria, have faith". Kayden tried to cheer up Maria. "Believe in yourself".
"Dr. Burggraf, do you have a purple candle? May I borrow one?". Esserine seriously wanted Maria to practice. "And Maria, don't ruin our Prestige students' reputation".
"Here you go". Dr. Burggraf handed Maria the required candle.
"Okay, now we just need an object to scan". Adelphia took out her Birch wooden brooch. "Use mine".
"She's really bad at magic?" - Lucas questioned curiously.
"No, she's just being lazy" - Esserine answered straight forward.
"HEY I'M NOT"
"FOCUS"
Adelphia won't let Maria a second to mess around. Even if Maria fails today's presentation, at least she can perform the spell yet. That's basically Adelphia's goal. She even convinces Dr. Burggraf to use today's class period for Maria practice.
Maria ignited the candle by her ability: "Scientia et sapientia, spatium et tempus, de hac re sciam. indica mihi quale sit. Sic erit!"
A purple circle starts to form however, it breaks and fades away immediately.
"Try again". Adelphia relied on the wall.
"Scientia et sapientia, spatium et tempus, de hac re sciam. indica mihi quale sit. Sic erit!"
Maria did and it failed again.
"Try again". Adelphia repeated.
"Is she going to be okay?" - Kayden whispered.
"I don't think Adelphia would stop unless the spell works properly". Esserine fixed her hair.
"That sounds exhausting". Although Phoebe didn't like Maria, as a team, she still cared about her as an ally.
And just then, Adelphia forces Maria to practise the spell Pellego for the whole period of Prestige class. While Lucas and everyone else are sharing their battle experiences with Dr. Burggraf, so she can have better plans to teach and to organize positions of people.
Finally, at the last minute before the Prestige class ends, Maria successfully activates the spell Pellego. That was all her luck for the day. If she can't do it, then Adelphia will throw her down from the 50th floor of a building. Maria did really cry at the last minute. Adelphia almost threw a chair at her for being a disappointment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The period of Spells and Charms.
"Okay everyone, to honor our destroyers, Maria and Esserine". Professor Bailey got her ancient box out. "They will be the first people to present the spell Pellego".
"What?!". Maria was panicked. "You are taking revenge on us".
"Maria practiced a lot today, let her go first". Esserine smirked kiddingly.
"Bitch". Maria gave her deadly stare.
"Enough talking, come here Maria". Professor Bailey handed Maria the purple candle.
"Yes ma'am". Maria took the candle and walked toward the object.
"Don't disappoint Adelphia, girl!!". Esserine uttered cheerfully.
Maria stood still, lit her purple candle up, and started chanting: "Scientia et sapientia, spatium et tempus, de hac re sciam. indica mihi quale sit. Sic erit!". Miraculously, the spell didn't go wrong. The magic circle was forming slowly and the magic screen appeared. All the information flowed through the class, hidden secrets were revealed.
"Abigo". Maria smoothly dispelled the spell.
"Good job Maria". Professor Bailey happily said. "Tell me some things about the ancient chest".
"Ah". Maria frozen. "I didn't notice the information".
"It's okay honey". Miss Bailey comforted Maria. "You failed the project successfully".
"Ooooh, you're dead with Adelphia". Esserine laughed loudly. "Adelphia will throw you into the abyss".
"Shut up". Maria showed no expressions on her face, she was too stunned to speak.
Maria walks back to her table with an emotionless face while Esserine is laughing like this is the last time she can laugh. Maria didn't expect this to happen, she literally practices 2 hours (Prestige class takes 2 hours of the day) to get here. And Miss Bailey decides to mark her as failed. Maria is furious, sad, and feeling unfair.
"Things will be fine, I think so". Esserine tapped on Maria's shoulder. "Good luck Miss Lenormand".
Next turn is Esserine and somehow she answers the question correctly. When Maria asks why, she just says that she pays attention in the class while all Maria does is dream about her idols falling in love with her.
