บท 97: Improvement
"So it looks like you're getting the hang of casting level one spells..." Scarlet smiled.
"... is that good?..." I asked for some odd reason seeking some reassurance.
"For someone who only learned about magic a week ago.... it's extremely good." She smiled to me.
"Yeah but I'm still pretty weak right now?..." I asked her noticing the way she answered my question.
"Yes... Most students should be able to cast level 2 or 3 spells..." She said quietly to me.
".... It's okay.. I need to learn to walk before I run right?.." I said trying to lighten the mood.
"Don't worry sis with me and Paul by your side you're gonna achieve great things." She smiled.
"How long do you think we got left before breakfast?.." I asked confused a little on the time flow thing.
"Hmm maybe another 30 minutes here." Scarlet said taking a seat on the floor.
Taking a seat next to her and taking a large mouthful of water. "How comes when I use Ashley's coin I'm not affected by your Fear aura thing?" I asked.
"The coin is imbued with a buff spell that makes you immune to fear for two hours." Scarlet replied.
"Wow that's pretty cool." I replied relaxing next to Scarlet.
"Yeah Artificing is pretty cool... especially that thing Paul has that puts an moving illusions on a wall with sound!" Scarlet squeaked in excitement.
"A projector?.." I asked chuckling.
"Yeah!!! That's the name of it!! So cool!!!!" Scarlet smiled swaying back and forth in imagination. "Ohh yeah and make sure you come around after dinner on Middas we do a weekly watching thing with the projector it's totally awesome!" Scarlet smiled.
"Yeah of course! We'll defiantly come! I would love the group to see a movie! By the way... how does Paul play them?...." I smiled questioning.
"Ohhh my lord!!!! You have to see it to believe it!!! It's this tiny thing no bigger than a finger... and inside it is more things then a whole library can store!!!.... also also... he has this thing it makes things that look like paintings but they look so real!!!" She began describing in excitement make me chuckle at how excited she was seeing a USB memory stick and a camera.
"OHHH OHHH and this amazing thing.. You put it in your ears..... And you can hear music!!! And other things! It's so amazing!" She replied.
"How do you normally listen to music?.." I asked curiously wondering how the world works here.
"You'd have to go to a tavern... or a theatre or anywhere there's a bard..." Scarlet answered.
"A bard?.." I asked.
"Yeah.... Bards are people who play music with instruments." Scarlet replied with a smile.
"AND AND!!!! When we went back to your world... the huge buildings... OHHH OHH!!! And we went to this place.... that had glass walls and behind it was like an Ocean filled with fishes!!! Real fishes!!!! Of all different types and sizes it was so amazing!" Scarlet said still excited like a small child finding new discoveries. I couldn't help but laugh imagining myself.... getting excited as her when I discovering magic can be used here...
"By the way what do you know about the Sporeans?..." I asked remembering S'ffa.
"Ummm small tiny race of shroomish humanoids.... excellent at growing things in the dark relatively peaceful race.... and they supply the school with alot of rare components and reagents." Scarlet answered. "Why do you ask?.." She questioned.
"Nothing really.... just met one on our first school trip and wanted to help the school and them any way I could." I answered.
"Ohhh that's simple... as your House Leader I can do that for you." Scarlet smiled.
"So... we normally have two groups go out to them, one today and one on Fredas both groups leave Atlantis at lunch, having lunch over there assisting in the village and in return we get a good supply of high quality underground components and reagents." Scarlet replied with a smile.
"Atlantis is a good school right?.." I asked remembering how terrible the other schools sounded.
"Hmmmm why do you ask?.." She questioned curiously.
"Because I heard about the other schools.... and they sound really bad.." I replied.
"Yeah... Paul told me you guys were from a more civilized world...." Scarlet commented. "But to answer your question.... we are a good school morally.... there are some grey areas.... but generally we are considered the nicest of them all.." She answered.
"Grey areas?.." I asked now feeling doubtful of Scarlet's answer.
"Hmmm I shouldn't really tell you....." She replied looking conflicted.
"Is it bad?.." I asked.
"Not really... you will need to promise you'll never tell anyone this information." She requested.
"I promise, I won't tell anyone what you tell me now." I replied confidently.
"I mean it... what I tell you can't leave this room." She added.
"I promise." I again promised her.
"So the world isn't peaceful as the world you came from.... there's a constant tug of war Eshia and Zessia will bound to launch a war at any time if they felt they had a good chance of winning, Atlantis and Aspa chooses to take a back seat but we will take action if forced. That's not including the other continent in the world... creatures from the dark abyss.... cults worshiping Evil Gods..... Other races plotting for world domination... Even God's trying to enter this plane to take it over..... This world is volatile.... everything may look grand and beautiful but behind that facade is a land writhe with danger and at any moment something apocalyptic could happen." Scarlet explained. "So sadly even we have to engage in dealings, information brokering, spying and things... There are lines we do not cross but even though our hands are the cleanest..... They aren't pristine...." Scarlet carried on explaining looking down talking quietly.
"I see....." I nodded in understanding taking a big sigh.
"Yeah....... life is different over here.... I preferred live over where you guys lived.... seemed so much more fun." She said.
"It's okay... not as exciting in my opinion..." I replied.
"...... When you live in a world where loved ones can be lost at any moment.... you'll really miss that quaint quite lifestyle." Scarlet smiled staring into the ceiling. "And don't forget the clothes!!!! ohh my god the clothes are so amazing!!!" She smiled looking at me.
"Ha that's pretty funny because I quite like the clothes you have here." I smiled.
"Although I never got the concept of heels.... they seem painful to wear... and girls complain about them.... why were them at all?.." She said confusingly.
"It's to show off our legs.... and it make short people like me a little less short.." I replied.
"Ohhh I see....." She nodded slowly.
"You don't get it do you?.." I asked.
"Nope!!! Why put yourself in pain?!!!" Scarlet replied still puzzled.
"Ahh it's a girl thing.... next time we are both back home... I'll show you a good time!" I smiled.
"You don't do the same thing Paul does?.." She asked looking confused.
"What does Paul do when he gets back?.." I asked.
"Hmm..... So our next trip is gonna be winter... so we get together with his Family and we all have a big huge dinner..... Drink this horrible bitter drink and chat and laugh..... Also we play games and have fun with niece and nephews." Scarlet answered making me wonder how on earth do they deal with the feeling of fear….. but then again Paul is there he probably has something to fix that..
"Yeah that defiantly sounds like him..." I replied a nostalgic warm feeling began pouring into my heart and before I knew it I was smiling happily. "But it's gonna be a secret so next time we are both together back on earth come hang out with me okay?" I offered.
"Okay sure." Scarlet smiled. "But that's only if it's okay with Paul... He tells me that I could get into serious trouble if people discover my strength and speed and stuff.." Scarlet replied.
"Ahh yeah that's true.... don't worry I'll look after you." I smiled.
