Elven-Wolves

Chapter 12

"What took you so long Haro," Len says with a frown "you normally are quicker than that"

"Some people seemed to want to stop me from coming up and finishing the test," I say with a grin.

 now let us go and check our results the girls can catch up later" Len says with egress in his eyes he always loves it when someone praises or criticizes his work. As we walk out of the room we notice that we are transported to a room with no one in it and a large board and a note that says find your name on the board and press it to be in the grading room for your potions. We look around the board and finally found our names near the bottom of the list. As I pressed my name I notice my self being transported again. This time when I can see again I notice that Len is not with me and I am in a small room with wooden walls and floor seems to be made out of mats. In around the center of the room, I see a table with two seats. In one of the seats, I see the test proctor sitting there drinking tea with my potions in front of him And the other seat was empty.

The test propter looks up and notices I am there.

"Hello there Haro take a seat then we will begin to grade your potions. I have heard that you are from a small elven village and do not know much about the outside world so the headmaster told me to grade your potions in front of you and your companions so that you know what is normal for potions here."

"Thank you, sir," I say as I take a seat.

"Now let's take a look your first potion," He says as he picks up the first potion bottle that contains the health potion. "This one is your health potion right"

"Yes sir it is" he begins to uncork the bottle and sniff it then swishes it around.

"I think the best way to test this would be to use it on an injury" he says with a smile, and I think I know someone who has an injury that this can heal" He gets up and walks to a weird looking device on the wall with a lot of electric spirits around it. He picks up something off of it and begins to speak. I was confused so I beckoned one of the electric spirits over to me and asked in a hushed tone

"What is that device that, that man is using"

"It's a communication device that human use they call it a phone it works with electric magic to pass words and noises to a person on the other end," the spirit said with a smile on its little body. The body of a spirit is not like a normal person they kind of look like small children with a bit of whatever their element is coming off of them. There are also more mature spirits that have the body of a full grown adult, this normally means that they are either a contracted spirit to a powerful person or that they have lived a long time. I thanked the spirit with a bit of electric mana and sent it back over to the phone.

As the spirit went back over to the phone the man begins to come back.

" The person with the injury that I was speaking of earlier should be here soon. Oh, and who was that you were talking to boy" he says the last part with a stern voice.

"Just a little lightning spirit from the phone over there," I say in a nonchalant voice

"What you can see and even speak to spirits!" He says with an extremely surprised look on his face.

"Yes, is that not normal among humans?" I ask

He shakes his head and sighs as he sits down again."No, it is not normal for humans or most any race for that fact to be able to see much less speak to spirits"

"Oh," I said with a surprised look.

"I do not know where you're from kid but if it is where people normally see and speak to spirits you should probably keep that a secret from other as well as keep your ability a secret." As he finishes I see a man with one arm and one leg walk in I look on him with amazement. Normally in our village, if we have lost a limb or something like that we would use a healing potion or a healing spell to heal it back instantly.

"Ah he's here Haro this is the teacher, Gerald Revat , that is the head of the swordsmanship section he is also an old war vet from the last racial war 60 years ago, he was a highly decorated soldier but had to be discharged due to his war injuries. He has recently has been injured in a fight and has a slight gash on his back that is what we can test your potion on"

"Come on Bernard it's not like this kids potion will do anything it is a pretty large gash most kids potions can barely heal a bruise." The Gerald says with a solemn expression.

"I think it will work now come on and take it, Gerald," Bernard says as he shoves the potion into Geralds' hands.

"Fine I will take it," He says as he removes the cork of the bottle and guzzles it down. After a few seconds, a light begins to glow on his back and at the stumps of his arm and leg. A few minutes pass and his arm, leg, and back were fully healed. Both men had amazed looks on their faces with their jaws open and their eyes wide.
