Reshin's POV

Reshin: I just think you should ask her out ya know as your best friend I know what I'm saying afterall I am a ladies man

I say while wiggling my eyebrows

Keigo: well... one my crush and I just met before we went to the exam and two...you? A ladies man? When you stutter and become a blushing mess around the girl you like

Reshin:... fair point...anyways you haven't even told me who this crush is? Mind if I know

Keigo: well you probably will not like it...

Reshin: let me guess...it's my sis

Keigo: no that's not i- WAIT A MINUTE...how did you know!?!

Reshin: it was pretty obvious anyways it's cool man as long as it's you I approve

Keigo: thanks man..so does she like me back

Reshin: I don't know that's for you to find out

Keigo:...why do I smell fire or burnt wood...

Reshin: look their... smoke

We look in the distance and see a dangerous amount of smoke rising from the ground

Reshin: we gotta go check it out after all we are mages in training it's our job to help people

Keigo: if ya say so cmon...have you ever tried wood surfing!

Before I can process I'm picked up by wood and Keigo and I are zooming through the forest on a wood like hand and as soon as we stop my eyes are met with horror
With a village on fire and bodies everywhere while injured one's are fleeing into the surrounding forest

Keigo: you think it's fire magic?

Reshin: yea let's take a look around

We started walking around until Keigo suddenly shouted

Keigo: RESHIN BEHIND YOU!!!

I see two katanas about to slice my head off and everything just seems slow I hear behind me

???: DIE...

I pull out Dekiru and hit the katanas away from me I then turn around and made a  windspere in my hand and slammed it into the mysterious man's gut which sends him flying straight into a random house which creates a huge hole and some smoke one it clears we see a man with a black robe and a white mask with a black cross on it and a Cracked part revealing his right eye which had a dark green colour he had two katanas with shadow magic around his body...so he uses shadow magic

Reshin:hey! Stop right there!!

Before I could think he disappeared in a flash and appeared behind me...but he didn't even attack he just stood there then I felt a sharp blind pain on my arm I look down to see two long slashes on my left arm

Reshin: ahhh! Dammit!

He was about to attack until he jumped up and I see a huge wooden hand but before he could reach it he sheathed his katanas and brought out fire and burned the wood

Reshin: shit I knew fire magic would be involved!

Luna: hey hey take it easy Reshin you have to take it easy you know your losing blood really fast at this rate you'll pass out before the fight even ends

Reshin: then I'll make sure that doesn't happen...

I tear a part of my T-shirt and use it to tie around my arm stopping the blood loss...a little

Reshin: keigo! Use long range attacks!

Keigo: you got it!

Ge ran to a tree and use a spell

Keigo: stake rush!

A bunch of holes opened on the tree then before you know it you see a bunch of tiny sharp spike shaped wood flying towards him in groups of hundreds

But before it hits we see the mysterious man bring out these weird black balls and throw them on the floor

(M.M=mysterious man)

M.M: goodbye see you next time gentlemen...

Then smoke engulfs him and the spikes put holes in the smoke and it cleared...he was gone

Keigo: welp he got away...let's get back I'm really sleepy and I'm sure the Orcs need you as much as the Assassins need me

Reshin: ok let's go...this hurts like hell

A break brought to you by Chibi Keigo and Reshin Wood surfing ...

I burst through the door about to pass out any second

Luna: I honestly thought you wouldn't last this long congrats

Reshin: thanks

Before I know it I'm tackled to the floor by my sis and it looks like she's been...crying

Sayori: O-Onee-cha-chan I was so sc-scared hic I thought y-you wouldn't c-come ba-back

Reshin: hey there there it's ok I'm here now right all good

Sayori then looks at my arm and gasps

Sayori: what happened to your arm!

Reshin explains...

Sayori: you should have told me and Megumi-chan to come we are a team after all!!!

Reshin: the truth is even if you two did come it wouldn't matter that guy was too strong...he was just playing with us I was even lucky to land just one hit on him

Sayori: it's ok You guys should report this to Rinowa-sensei he is the head of teachers and right hand man to prof.Ozpin

Reshin: sure...

Then Megumi walks through the door and she did not look happy

Megumi: oh my gosh Reshin-kun we were so worried you made Sayori-san to cry and...WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR ARM?!?!?!
I'll treat it right away just stay there I have medical first aid experience!

Then she runs out frantically looking for medical stuff

Sayori: ara ara~ love blossoms

Reshin: sissssss stoooop iiiit

Luna: you gotta admit she's right tho omg! My little Reshin likes a pretty cute girl!

Reshin: h-hey not you too Luna!

Sayori: just sit tight nurse Megumi-chan and Doctor Sayori will make you all better

As soon as she said that Megumi ran in with bandages and a bottle of green stuff

Sayori: ok Megumi-chan let's rap em up!

After they finished rapping my arm in bandages

Megumi: now drink this herbs it will quicken the healing process

Oh so that's what it  is  and it was so bitter!

I then explained the situation to Megumi and she was quite shocked but we decided we will bring Keigo tomorrow and go meet Rinowa-sensei but for now I need sleep...
