The shooting and blocking activity continued for more minutes until the five shooters felt weak after losing much magic in their body.

Seeing this, Arjhay made five big bubbles that covered each of the shooters and after a while, the shooters slowly regained strength and magic.

"That was... What happened?", Haley asked. "You've lost too much magic and I used recovery bubbles to speed up your recovery.", Arjhay replied. "For now, let's all go home.", Arjhay exclaimed at the silent class beside them.

In the Sezfolleria house,

"Mom! I got a flute for a weapon! Oh I'm so so happy!", Arjhay called his mom on his phone while lying on the bed. "Congratulations Arjhay! Anyway, our research company discovered something new in connection with all of the worlds' mages.", she exclaimed.

"And what is it mom?", Arjhay asked after sitting up. "You'll know pretty soon, my son.", she replied with a hint of excitement in her voice.

At the same time, in the academy, Mr. Flavius received an announcement from the SMC and he immediately called a meeting with the principal and headmistress of VA.

"The SMC have founded a new discovery.", he began without pretension. "What is it?", asked the principal in his office.

"It began already, as the SMC told me. The first occurence of it was found in a remote place in the continent of Naturael in a hidden tribe there. In that place, interaction of human and animals is an important belief and they actually had a mutual relationship with each other.", Mr. Flavius narrated.

"So you mean...", the headmistress got the point while covering her mouth from the excitement. "Yes, from that information alone, we can prove that they exist. The news will be loved by everybody, especially the students.", Mr. Flavius exclaimed which made the principal and headmistress surprised and also excited at the same time.

***********************************

The summoning was postponed on tuesday for the preparation of the JS Prom and also the Valentine's day and was moved to next week, monday.

In their classroom, Arjhay's class was tasked by their adviser to make a booth for the Valentine's day celebration. "Okay classmates, let me hear your suggestions!", Jona exclaimed in the front of the class.

"How about a kissing booth?", asked Jebrie. "Nah, its so common.", Alfel said while standing near Jona, as the class vice-president.

"If I'm right, Sezfolleria owns some famous bakeshops, do you Arjhay?", Alfel asked. "Yes, we do own some bakeshops but they are all in the main continent.", Arjhay replied.

"But I can ask for a franchise store in here and make it look like our own booth.", Arjhay added which made Alfel and Jona's face brighten. "By that, we will have a pastry booth on 13 and 14. We will name it 'Arjhay's Pastries'.", Jona said before the class cheered. Arjhay was surprised by the name of their booth but he smiled, knowing that he wouldn't be available in those days.

After lunch,

"You promised us something right?", Jenrich said in a demanding tone while standing with Jerimuel, Illiana, Eljake and Erliane. "........", Arjhay thought for a while. "Oh, I forgot, I should train you on how I shoot Jerimuel's fire ball without looking, right?", he said.

"Exactly.", Illiana said. "Well, the key to that technique is to improve your sense of your surrounding. First, tell me your levels.", Arjhay said.

Erliane: I'm still level e-6.
Jenrich: I'm f-7.
Eljake: I'm level f-3.
Illiana: I'm currently level e-5.
Jerimuel: I'm now level g-1.

"Okay, for you to know,", Arjhay inhaled. "I'm now level n-7.", he said. The five was so surprised that Jerimuel's mouth opened, Illiana cupped her mouth and the others looked like owls with their eyes wide open.

"Yo-you're joking r-right?", Jerimuel asked. "Yes, it's actually o-5.", Arjhay lied. Again they were shocked. "I'm joking, the first one is right. I'm a level n-7 mage.", he added.

After some minutes, "I can't believe you have reached the level n already.", Illiana said. "We thought you're just level l.", Eljake said.

"You obviously looked surprised. Anyway, let's start. I need you to find a suitable place for yourselves.", Arjhay instructed.

Since classes are on hold until the end of summoning, they can practice the whole afternoon. All five of them sat on the floor, cross-legged. "Close your eyes and concentrate, feel your surroundings.", Arjhay instructed.

They closed their eyes and started to concentrate. After a while, Arjhay crumpled pieces of paper and without warning, threw them to their faces. 'Oops, I threw it hard!', he thought to himself while doing a hurt expression.

"Ouch, what's with that?", Jerimuel asked while rubbing his face. The others were rubbing their faces (forehead), too. "It is to test whether you have done it right but all of you did not. Just keep it up! Continue concentrating.", Arjhay narrated.

After one hour, Arjhay threw paper again and none evaded the assault. "Guys, you can stop now. Let's do it again tomorrow.", Arjhay said. The five stood. "Arjhay, it's too hard.", Eljake said. "Yes it is, but I undergo that training too. No success can be gained by little effort. Remember that.", Arjhay reminded.

***********************************

"Arciel, mom told me that our research company found out about something, do you have any ideas?", Arjhay asked to Arciel as they ate their dinner. "Nothing. I know about it  but really don't know anything even if I ask her about it.", Arciel replied.

Arjhay just gestured like 'oh' on his face. After dinner, Arjhay received a call from Alfel.

"Yo Arjhay!", Alfel said. "Yes?", Arjhay asked. "About the franchise, Jona and I decided to make the delivery on thursday early morning so that we can change it early.", Alfel narrated.

"Sure! How about 4:30 early in the morning?", he asked. "Great! Anyway, thanks and also, bye!", Alfel exclaimed. "Bye too!", he said before ending the call.

He dialled the franchising department of their family company next. "Yes sir?", the voice of the head in the department, Mrs. Hoiee, said on the other line.

"Mrs. Hoiee, I would like to have a franchise store, the medium sized one, to be delivered on VA early thursday morning around 4:00 am.", Arjhay requested.

"Medium sized franchise pastry store on VA, 4:00 am, thursday. Got it sir.", she replied. "Great, thanks.", he added before ending the call.
