An hour later, Henry had just recovered from his accident in the bathroom. He was idly chatting with a couple of friends when he saw the new boy, Sam Tanner, sitting in a nearby bench. As they were in a higher grade now, all the students in his class were allowed to go outside at playground time. He suddently felt very interested in the new boy. Was he a fighter like Elsa, or would it be too much coincidence?

Sam was alone and hadn't shown much interest in talking to any of his classmates. He was reading a book which had no title. Instead, it had a strange symbol on the cover. After giving it some thought, Henry decided to come closer to the new student. As he approached him, Sam quickly put the book inside his school bag.

"Do you like your new High School?" Henry said, matter-of-factly.

Before saying a word Sam looked at his companion very carefully, as if examining him. "It is such a normal school"

"Well, I suppose it is!" he answered.

But quickly Martin, a friend of his, came to see what was going on. To be exact, what he did was say hello and quickly open Sam's bag. "What were you reading?"

"It is none of your business." Sam complained. He sounded very earnestly, just as Elsa had not long ago.

But the book was already in Jason's hands. "Let's see..." He read "Elementary Element Principles of Sorcery"

When Jason went through the next pages, he discovered that the words written on it were illigible. Which language was that? This was clearly not the French they had been studying for the next day's exam.

"Come here, Thomas!" He shouted. Everyone in class knew that Thomas was a freak of fantasy books and would be delighted to be able to read the "Elementary Element Principles of Sorcery" out loud while moving his arms like Son Goku. It was a truly funny joke for everyone around.

But after laughing out loud too, Henry turned his sight to his classmate Sam to see that he was not happy about it.
