A few days after the Pixie Village incident, the second-year students of Alphea were summoned to the lake for a special announcement.

"Attention, second-year fairies! You are to meet by the lake immediately. This announcement comes straight from the headmistress's office," Fanfare declared, zipping through their classroom while blowing her tiny trumpet.

"She's so cute!" the girls in the class gushed in unison, smiling as Fanfare flitted about.

The fairies, along with their pixie companions, gathered their things and headed towards the lake, buzzing with curiosity about the special announcement. They arrived at the lake with other second-year students; the excitement was palpable.

The headmistress stood at the edge of the lake, waiting for the students to settle before addressing them. "Welcome, second-year fairies," she began, her voice resonating clearly over the water. "This year, you will face new challenges and learn advanced magic. To support your journey, we have invited a wizard from the realm of Callisto."

As she finished speaking, a figure in a hooded cloak appeared beside her. With a smooth motion, he pulled back his hood, revealing his face. The crowd of girls erupted into excited whispers—the wizard was strikingly handsome, and he looked a bit young to be a teacher, which only added to the excitement in the air.

The wizard offered a polite smile, clearly aware of the attention he was garnering. "My name is Zephyr," he introduced himself, his voice smooth and confident. "I'll be guiding you through some of the more advanced aspects of your magical education this year."

Luna nudged Danielle, whispering, "He's even more charming up close."

Danielle nodded; her curiosity piqued. "I guess so."

From a distance, Violette and the other pixies observed the scene, their eyes wide with admiration. "He is so dreamy!" Violette gushed. "I can't believe he's going to be their teacher."

The pixies fluttered around, their excitement mirroring that of the students. "I bet the lessons will be magical in more ways than one," Kiki chimed in, giggling.

The headmistress continued, "Zephyr specialises in magical defence. He will be assisting in your training this year, bringing new insights and techniques that will elevate your magical abilities. I expect you all to make the most of this opportunity."

Zephyr stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the students with a confident smile. "I'm excited to work with all of you. My focus will be on developing your defensive magic skills."

A girl from the class raised her hand hesitantly. "Isn't he a bit too young to be teaching? He looks like he's a bit older than us," she asked, her curiosity echoed by murmurs among the other students.

Zephyr's smile remained steady as he addressed the question. "I may look young, but I assure you, I have years of experience in magical defense. My training and expertise in the field are extensive, and I'm here to share that knowledge with you."

The headmistress nodded in agreement. "Zephyr's background is exceptional, and his abilities are well beyond his years. So that concludes our introduction for today. Please make sure to review your schedules and be ready for your first session with Zephyr."

As the students dispersed, their conversations bubbled with excitement and speculation.

"He does seem awfully young to be a teacher," Lithia remarked.

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he's some kind of prodigy or something," Artemisia added.

"Well, lessons are about to get a lot more interesting. I guess I won't have to worry about staying awake in his class," Luna sighed with a grin.

"Geez, get a grip, Luna," Crystal rolled her eyes, trying to keep a straight face.

"Like honestly," Carissa chuckled.

"Oh, Crystal," Luna moved closer with a teasing smile. "Don't tell me you didn't find our new teacher attractive."

Crystal's cheeks flushed slightly. "Gosh, you're embarrassing sometimes."

Luna laughed, nudging Crystal playfully. "Just admit it. It's okay to appreciate a good-looking teacher every once in a while."

Crystal sighed, giving in with a small smile. "Fine, fine. He's attractive. But let's focus on the lessons, alright?"

The group laughed, their chatter continuing as they made their way back to their dorms, the excitement about the new school year mingling with their curiosity about their new instructor.
