During the morning my friends came to visit me, but nothing that they said made any sense, why were they congratulating me? It was just a week filled with boring explanations, and that was not really anything to commemorate really.
-Right, now if you put your madness by side, we need to be in the Swordsmanship class.- I told them, who looked at eachother. -I can't wait to hear about the 745 different stances.-
-Umm Barry, we've already had the Swordsmanship class, it was yesterday's class.- Howard said, raising an eyebrow. -Today is Friday, we have Demonology now.-
-What? I don't remember doing this class.- I replied, feeling confused now. -You're not making fun of me, are you?-
-When have I ever made any jokes?- Janko asked, which was fair. -You can doubt Howard, I'd also do that, but me and Sadie?-
-Alright, then tell me what happened.-
They then explained everything that happened the other day, from my neat shield making to my open defiance to Laguna. By the end of their recap, my memory had still not come back, whatever happened to my head wasn't going to be solved by simple recapping.
-Yeah I still can't remember anything, so we're just wasting time here.- I said, feeling a bit frustrated about not remembering anything. -We should just go to the class.-
After changing my clothes from a hospital gown to our usual school suit we headed towards the Amphitheater, hoping to see the note that we did, and for sure, there it was
"Today's class will be in the Coliseum again, what did you expect?"
-It's like he knew that someone would go to the wrong classroom.- I said. -Laguna is a weird man.-
-Agreed.-
We got on the subway and went to the Coliseum, where everyone was sitting in a semi circle around Laguna.
-Hello everyone, today we're going to learn one of my favorite subjects.- Laguna said, looking genuinely happy to be teaching this subject. -Demonology, one of the most fun subjects with the most unfortunate names, if it was up to me it would be called Summonology or Shamanthology, but I digress.-
-Are you going to tell us how to do it right?- A Student asked. -We're in our first week after all.-
-Of Course, not.- Laguna said laughing out loud. -I only tell you what to do, how to do is up to you, everyone has textbooks right? You should've read them.-
-What if I already know how to do it?-
Laguna clapped his hands together and positioned himself to be just a bit off the back wall.
-Summoning Art, Legends of Fallen Empires: Lernaean Hydra!- Laguna said, then hitting the ground with his left palm, after a bright light, a serpent came out of the ground, its Seven Heads Hissing at everyone. -You can feel free to try and kill the Hydra.-
-What is a Hydra?- I asked him, but Laguna just shrugged. -Isn't that a type of jellyfish?-
-Yes, but this is the monster, the Hydra of Lerna, one of the most dangerous monsters in history.- Sadie explained. -Be careful, for every head severed, The Hydra sprouts two more, you can only kill the Hydra by using fire.-
So summoning Leonidas was out of question, but what could attack the Hydra with fire? Wait, fire, firepower. I had a brilliant Idea.
-Right, I don't know if this will work but I will try.- I said, looking behind me, there was no chance that it would actually work. -Prepare to see your Hydra being removed from this plane of existence Laguna.-
