"We'll conclude here for today. Take an hour to relax, shower, and then return to your tasks. We will pick this back up again tomorrow morning. Be sure to review chapters one and two before tomorrow. Well done, well make a proper mage out of you yet," she said before vanishing.
I stayed the ground trying to catch my breath staring up at the sky. I felt a bit frustrated. I wanted to be learning magic.
After ten minutes had passed, I got up, bathed, changed clothes, and carried about my normal tasks. That night, before I went to sleep, I read chapters one and two.
The next morning, I went into the courtyard.
A moment later, the Dark One appeared before me.
"Good morning, Cemilian. Are you ready for this morning's review?" She asked.
"Yes," I replied calmly.
"Alright," she said with the twirl of her finger.
I felt the book float from my hand and watched it fall into her palm. She then twirled her finger once more. This time, I felt a similar force pull me down to the ground, forcing me into a plank position.
"What is this!?" I asked.
"Your review," she replied casually.
