Capítulo 201: Chapter 120: Being a Teacher
Cracking his neck, Adryan heaved a sigh of relief.
"I needed that" he said satisfied as he looked at the bottom of the sewer.
Today was Saturday and it was time to have another class with Hazel.
On Monday he had given her some combat classes and today it would be mysticism classes.
' Her stance may be bad but she has a good kick. I have to see how she moves a bit more but so far the most suitable style that I noticed for her is Taekwondo.' Adryan thought seriously, already entering his profile as a Teacher.
Having been a professional fighter in his past life reaching the point of being an international champion made it very easy for him to teach someone how to fight.
Mastering multiple combat styles and combining them to create one suitable for him had been a necessity.
He knew Karate, Taekwondo, Boxing, Muay Thai, Judo, Greco-Roman Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Wushu.
Remembering how he had suffered to learn Karate made him let out a short laugh as he shook his head.
Sometimes he wondered how high he would have gotten if it wasn't for that car accident...
Could that have changed anything?
Would he still be in his world?
Together with his family, having a normal life only having to worry about his exams...
He let out a soft breath as he shook his head.
'I can't change the past, only the present matters' he thought calmly as he waited for class time to arrive.
.....
"Good evening, Teacher Holmes," Hazel said as she bowed slightly in front of Adryan.
Adryan gave a soft smile as he nodded slightly.
"Good evening Hazel, have you been practicing what I asked you to do?"
Hazel nodded and gave a series of different kicks showing that she had been practicing.
"Very good, try to turn with more speed and use your hips more." Adryan said while demonstrating having noticed just a few issues with how Hazel had kicked.
"Thanks Teacher I'll keep practicing" Hazel was a little disappointed as she nodded, she thought her kicks were perfect but she still lacks.
She hoped to surprise Holmes to show that she was a skilled and good student.
After all, the name James Holmes was ringing a lot more in noble circles.
The other noble children she had to deal with kept talking about him and she couldn't help but smile with pride.
'That same man is teaching me Mysticism and is making me stronger unlike you who are left to talk about useless things about who will dance with whom like little children fighting over candy.'
'Soon I'll be better than you...' she thought as a person appeared in her mind.
An extremely beautiful young lady with emerald green eyes and soft blonde hair. She would normally have a sweet smile but in her mind her smile was arrogant, looking at her as if she was superior in every way.
This caused her to clench her fists but before her mind could continue, Adryan's voice interrupted her.
"This time we will be studying a little mysticism"
"First of all".
"Do you know what Spirit Vision is?"
At the redhead's question, Hazel nodded excitedly.
'Finally!'
"It was one of the first things Teacher Flora taught me other than how to steal people carefully."
Adryan gave a slight nod and he took out several candles and other materials from his jacket.
"That makes things easier."
"Now I'm going to teach you how to do simple rituals."
Adryan had spent the last few days reading and poring over the book that Isengard gave him. Now he mastered a decent amount of various rituals and could even teach about some.
"Simple rituals?"
Nodding, Adryan set aside the things he took from his jacket.
"It is a way of requesting power from great existences to help us accomplish various tasks. Whether it is in the elaboration of talismans, charms, or asking to speak with someone's spirit."
"There are all kinds of rituals but for now we will study the simple ones"
Hazel nodded and listened carefully to what Adryan was saying.
"Let's start with the most important and necessary."
"Hazel as you are noble I will assume you can speak Hermes correct?"
Hazel nodded.
"Well then I want you to start learning Ancient Hermes too"
Hazel nodded again but this time she spoke.
"Teacher Holmes, Teacher Flora already asked me that and I've been learning it for the last 2 months. I already know how to speak it pretty well according to what she told me last time"
Adryan's eyes widened slightly but then he let out a soft laugh.
"That makes it easier, it seems Flora does know how to teach after all~" Adryan said amused but he heard a woman's voice in his ear.
"I'm still here you know?"
Ignoring the worm woman, he returned his attention to Hazel.
"As you already know Hermes, now we can go to the second most important thing and that is the Altar...."
Adryan explained to Hazel the method taught by the book as well as the enormous danger that would be if she dared to pray to some evil God.
Hazel took everything the redhead said with absolute seriousness and made sure to chisel what he had said into her mind.
"Do you have any questions?"
Hazel shook her head. The redhead had explained everything quite well and delved into aspects that he considered difficult.
"Okay, so now I'll show you why this was our first class," Adryan said as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper, and handed it to Hazel.
Curious Hazel grabbed the paper and saw it, it had something written on it.
' The Special Spirit that wanders through the upper realm. The Trustworthy Spirit who is friendly to humans. The Companion Spirit of James Holmes.' raising an eyebrow she looked at her Teacher waiting for an explanation.
Adryan let out a soft laugh.
"That is the incantation of my messenger. If you have an emergency or doubt that cannot wait, you can write a letter and invoke it through the ritual that I taught you. She will deliver the letter to me."
"Messenger?" Hazel blurted out curiously.
"It's also called a contracted spirit that is in charge of mailing letters. Think of it like the postman." explained Adryan stealing the words of a certain Fool.
'I doubt Klein cares. After all, he hasn't said it yet so I'm not stealing anything~' the redhead thought pleased as the smile he wore shone with a bit of mischief.
"You must say this in Hermes for it to work." Adryan explained, then chuckled.
"I wrote the incantation in Loenese to keep you from reading it out loud, I'm glad you didn't."
Hazel raised a slightly offended eyebrow as she snorted.
"I don't mean to offend Teacher Holmes but I'm not an idiot. Who would be foolish enough to say an incantation out loud?" Hazel asked not expecting an answer.
"A salty fish" Adryan answered quickly with a smile.
"Excuse me?" Hazel asked confused, what would a salty fish have to do with what they were talking about?
"It's a joke where I come from, you wouldn't understand" Adryan said amused as he chuckled.
Hazel just nodded with a raised eyebrow.
"Whatever you say Teacher Holmes"
...
His vision was blurred and he saw in front of him a gray mist that slowly turned into a scene.
He could see what he assumed must be some street on Backlund Bridge.
On the sidewalk, it was highlighted how a person walked with a slightly accelerated step among the people with an unknown destination.
This was a normal-looking woman in a simple dress.
Suddenly this woman began to run among the people, throwing multiple to the ground. She even knocked people taller than her to the ground.
Other people began to chase her and one of them, a woman, had a strange blue-covered book in her hand.
This woman opened the book and pointed at the woman who was running.
The pages of the book began to shine but the woman kept running.
Suddenly the people who were chasing her took out revolvers and automatic weapons and started shooting at her.
This caused chaos to start in the street.
In acrobatic moves that didn't make sense for a woman of that size, she managed to dodge the shots.
Suddenly a man at the end of the street turned and pointed an automatic weapon at her and pulled the trigger.
Unable to dodge the woman was engulfed in flames and appeared on the other side of the street coming out of the flames.
She was so focused on escaping that she never realized that the people who took the bullets and were on the ground were not bleeding.
Still standing where the woman who had opened the book was, she watched as everything happened with cold eyes.
She released a shaky breath.
"The target has been captured Janice. You can get out now" the woman released a sigh as she opened her eyes and released the book that fell into the hands of a brown-haired man.
The woman who was running away was now on the ground and had a necklace around her neck. She was asleep.
The chaos that covered the street had disappeared, no person was hurt.
In fact they all watched as the woman was being handcuffed with doubt.
In their eyes she had run for a few seconds before falling asleep on the ground.
Another person approached the brown-haired man and whispered to him.
"Captain Ikanser, Harry Grand has been captured. We are transporting him to the base...."
At that moment everything he saw broke as if it were glass and he woke up alarmed and sweating in his bed.
"Nathan, what's wrong?" Sasha asked worriedly as she woke up too.
Nathan's eyes dropped a little to his partner's nudity but he shook his head.
"I need to do a divination"Nathan said seriously as he got up and went to the room that he had modified.
Entering the dark room he grabbed a piece of paper by his side and wrote.
'Reason for my dream'
After that, he closed his eyes and entered a Cogitation state.
The gray mist reappeared and he saw the scene of how the Faceless who was chasing them ran away after losing his partner.
The scene broke and Nathan's eyes widened in surprise.
Not trusting, he grabbed his pendulum and began to murmur in a low voice.
"Harry Grant was the one chasing us..."
After repeating that 7 times, he observed how the pendulum began to rotate clockwise at high speed.
Nathan watched this in shock.
"The dream turned out to be a revelation..." he murmured in astonishment.
"But is it one from the future or past..."
Closing his eyes again he muttered 7 times.
"Harry Grant has been captured..."
After a few moments, he opened his eyes again and saw how the pendulum stayed still.
Nathan did not give importance to this and also interpreted it in another way.
"Divination has been interfered with."
"When I divined that Harry Grant was the one chasing us there was no interference because it wasn't direct at him."
"And when I divined about his status the interference occurred, that means he's already been captured..."
"The dream was a revelation of the past..."

Hello guys author here!
I just want to seriously apologize to you.
I underestimated too much the speed with which the story is read and I doubt very much that the surprise will be ready when it reaches the Million Views.
So I can only tell you that you will be able to see the surprise before the second volume is over. That is the only thing I can guarantee. Again I am sorry.
