Bab 8: Hooligan
Under the watchful gaze of the Students Hari walked to Daksh and said " looks like Bert will not be sparing with anyone any time soon "
Daksh just kept staring at Hari as if he was looking at a ghost as he said " who are you? where is my timid little friend, did aliens abduct him or something "
" that's some serious accusation you are making there buddy, I do not want to end up on a operating table of some federation secret lad. " said Hari with a smile.
" can you blame me, just yesterday you were a timid low self esteemed teenager and suddenly today you became the dark horse who defeated a opponent 2 levels stronger than you. " argued Daksh
" I was just lucky, Bert had no previous combat experience and seriously lacked in Basic skills. " said Hari Humbly.
" I hate it when people try to be modest .... Arhh! " complained Daksh, he could see that his buddy had his own secrets and he did not want to pry on them.
" here you go " Hari took out 3 mana stones out of his pocket and offered them to Daksh.
Daksh did not receive the three Mana Stones instead with a frown he asked " what are you doing? ".
If it was someone else offering the mana stones Daksh may have not hesitated to pocket the mana stones without any questions, but with Hari it was different as Hari and Daksh have a relationship based on friendship which is the relationship of two equal individuals, once he takes these mana stones they will no longer be equals.
" Just think of it as my investment in you " said Hari casually.
" what do you mean? " asked Daksh suspiciously.
" you have already located one of your life star, so its just a matter of time before you open your life star and be eligible to join a mediocre magic academy at best During the Federal Magic academy entrance examination but with this 3 mana stones you while have chance to get in to a top Federal Magic academy. lets say you don't, since you have already located one of your life star, so you will definitely become a magic knight.
owning a favor to future magic knight by just spending 3 mana stones, that is considered as a good investment. so don't over think it just take them " explained Hari.
" But what about you, this 8 mana stones should be enough for you to locate and open your 1 life star and 2 other stars. " said Daksh with concern.
" I still have 5 mana stones left, if I am still not able to locate and open the other stars with this mana stones then I don't think having extra 3 mana stones will change any thing. trust me just take the man stone don't forget what you said before ' we will train together, and both of us will become Strong magic knights together ' , don't tell me you did not mean it " Hari than handed the stones to Daksh.
Daksh did not hesitate any more and accepted the mana stones with strong nod towards Hari and said " I did mean it, lets train together, and lets become Strong magic knights together"
" what do you plan to do next, shall we continue to spar or will you open your life star with the help of the mana stones. " asked Hari
" I plan to rent a M.A.A.R (mana absorption array room) here at the gym till i open my Heart star, what about you? will you also rent a M.A.A.R (mana absorption array room) " said Daksh
A average magic apprentice with out any life star can only absorb 25 - 30 % of the mana contained in a mana stone and for a magic apprentice without any life star but with high mana affinity they an absorb about 50 - 60 % of mana in the mana stones. this is were the M.A.A.R (mana absorption array room) come's in to the picture it helps the magic apprentice with out any life star to absorb about 95% of mana in mana stones and other 5 % is used to run the magic array.
But Hari did not require the M.A.A.R (mana absorption array room) because earlier when he just received the mana stones from the coach he heard a prompt
' external mana source detected, permission to access external mana source ? '
Hari hurriedly denied A.Q.U.A's request and looked for further details, it turn's out with the help of A.Q.U.A Hari could absorb 100% of mana in the mana stones.
" no I will not rent a M.A.A.R, I am not in a hurry. you go ahead since you have already located the life star " answered Hari.
" okay then, see you later. " Daksh bid his goodbye and exited the combat hall, took the elevator to the 6th floor where the M.A.A.R was located.
Since combat class was the last class and there was nothing he could learn in the class, Hari decided to take a leave and head home early. It was almost dusk as Hari exited the wodeyar gym. senior high school students had 8 hrs of theory class with 2 hrs of basic training class and 2 hrs of basic combat class, so the senior students enter the school at 8 am and exited the high school at 8 pm.
One would ask why 8 hrs of theory classes for a bunch of magic apprentice, A magic apprentice need's to have strong grasp over their magic theory and concepts to become a good magic knight or wizard.
On his way home Hari felt like he was riding a emotional and mental roller coaster, as he was going to face his family after traveling back in time, for them it would be a regular day but for him it would be a unexplained feeling, there were to many things Hari wanted to change about his past before, now he has been given a chance he did not know where to start but he knew that he would make full use of this chance.
As he neared his house Hari saw two figures crossing the crossroad hurriedly, seeing those figure Hari felt a chill in his spin as if he saw a ghost from his past.
The two figure's became clearer as they crossed the crossroad and neared Hari, one of the two figure was a young women in motorized wheel chair who seemed to be trying to hide her beautiful figure by wearing baggy clothes, over sized for someone of her size while covering her gorgeous face with big black round glasses. her outfit did not seem to cover her beauty instead it added a nerdy look to her. besides her was a 10 -11 year old boy wearing a black hoodie while covering his face by wearing a trucker hat under the hood.
Seeing both the people Hari felt like his heart was split into thousand pieces as the they were none other than his Wife and Brother-in-law in his alternate life.
In his alternate life, Hari could not open a life star so he automatically failed the Federation Magic Academy entrance examination. Driving Hari into depression, but still he continued with his life with support from his family and joined Mortal alchemy University in mysore city as he did not want to stay far from home.
Hari's elder sister Urvi couldn't see her younger brother agonize in Depression any more so she set him up in a blind date with one of her closest friend. Hari reluctantly agreed to it. slowly the the blind date evolved into a serious relationship and grew into marriage. the girl had a certain charm to her she was able to bring Hari out of depression and look forward to a hope filled life.
Hari's blind date was none other than the girl in the motorized wheelchair, who then went on to be his wife in the alternate future.
As the brother sister pair neared Hari, Hari went forward and step in front of them blocking their path.
Seeing Hari block their path the Boy meekly said " excuse me mister, is there a problem "
" no, there is not. " said Hari with a deep voice acting like a hoodlum.
"then please move, don't delay us " said the sister seeing Hari's attitude.
" women, is this how you speak to your future husband " shouted Hari, hearing the commotion, the passer by started to look at the trio.
Hari's word caught the sister and bother duo off guard and the passer by smelled a juicy drama for them to watch.
" whose future hu..husband, don't speak irresponsibly!! you.. you Hoodlum!" retorted the sister flustered. the boy who had kept his head down since the being looked up at Hari with a hard cold gaze.
" you have already forgot about you husband you fickle women!...." shouted Hari and then looked at the boy and said " do you think you have grown big now and can stare at your own brother in law you ungrateful boy "
Just as Hari shouted at the kid the sister noticed her brother's eyes and she grabbed him by his wrist and glared at him, so that he doesn't do any thing foolish. as his sister grabbed his wrist the boy looked back at his sister, seeing her glare at him he reluctantly put his head down again.
The sister had faced with many kinds of annoying people in her life, some were bullies , some where trouble makers, some just hated her, some did it just for the fun of it or have a good laugh...., she knew how to handle these people but this was new for her little brother. thinking of the worst , the girl did not want her little brother to end up in trouble because of her.
Seeing the brother keep his head down Hair said " that's like a good brother-in-law "
Hearing Hari's word the boy clenched his fist tightly but did not lift his head.
Hari was preparing to taunt the boy again but he noticed the crowd gathering around them, So he lashed out at the crowd " what the fuck are you looking at .... uh! have you people never fought with your wife or husband scram! before i get angry.... didn't you hear me scram don't block the path! .. scram before i cut you!!"
Seeing aggressive Hari who looks like a street thug dressed in a high school uniform scream at them the crowd dispersed slowly back to their busy life.
As the crowd dispersed Hari looked back at the duo and said " where are you guys going at this hour, don't you know this part of the town is not safe. "
Hearing Hari's words the duo rolled their eye and thought ' look who is talking' it was like a wolf telling a sheep its not safe out hear '
" do we know each other, please don't say th..that! " said the sister trying to sound serious but failed.
" I am Urvi's younger brother Hari " said Hari with a smile, seeing the embarrassed brother and sister pair.
" being my friends brother doesn't explain your behavior earlier. " said the sister with anger. she was really pissed at the boy for his behavior but half of her anger went away after knowing he is her friends younger brother.
" oh! you look so darn cute when you are angry, I have decided girl you are going to be my future wife " said Hari shamelessly looking straight into the girls eyes.
Hearing Hari the duo were stumped again, the little boy could not hold it any longer and lifted his head back up and looked at Hari with a comical expression.
feeling the boy's gaze Hari looked at the boy and said "little brother in law, where are you going with my wife. I will tag along just incase"
" you hooligan don't speak irresponsibly, believe it or not i will complain about you to your sister " shouted the sister.
" do what you want she is not the boss of me. come on let's go, it getting late " said Hari nonchalantly.
