September 1306
"Headmaster! You mustn't do this! You will die and no one can will lead the the academy!" begged a middle aged man who was the advisor of the Dark Academy's headmaster, Edmon Bennett. The man whom he was talking to did not listen but simply smiled at him and took Edmon's hand and gave it a tight squeeze, although under the predicament that they are in, he was smiling, not showing any weakness to anyone.
"Edmon, I have lived for quite a while now, maybe resting is what the Gods have desired for me, and the next Headmaster is right in front of me, what do I have to worry about." said the Headmaster to Edmon who's eyes were flooded with tears after hearing the master's words. Edmon recollected himself and stood up wearing a brave face which showed power and authority. The Headmaster was pleased with Edmon and rested his arm on his advisor's shoulder, reassuring him.
"That"s what I wanted to see, before you put an end to this ridiculous, you're going to need this. Seal Magic, Överföra!" The Headmaster called.Edmon felt an incredible surge of Energi flow within his body which overwhelmed him, he was absorbing the last of remaining Energi within the Headmaster and was slowly regaining knowledge about the secrets of the academy as well. His body was emitting a radiant indigo light which travelled throughout the battlefield. This caught the attention of the other mages but did not understand the reason behind it, all they knew was a lot of Energi was being released. Edmon's glow slowly dimmed till it was gone. His body seemed to have grown stronger and he felt that his Energi pool has increased and he had enough Energi to decimate a city. He noticed a familiar seal on his hand which caused his eyes to wided.
"This is...."
"Yes, it's the seal of the Grandmaster. I don't have much time to spend here as all my Energi has been passed on to you. Your Energi pool has increased by many folds and you can cast any form of high-level spells before you experience Energi Exhaustion, your body has also been strengthened and enhanced. Edmon you're powerful as you are, this seal will make you even more formidable. You mustn't let anybody know about it."
All this information overwhelmed Edmon but he absorbed it immediately. He was in no position to be under a trance. The Headmaster was on his last breathe and clearly sent a message to him by giving him this much power...he needs to end the war. Edmon shared his last moments with the Headmaster on his last few seconds and tried his best to smile.
"Oh don't look so gloom Edmon, my advisor wasn't such a little sissy bitch was he now?"
"Says the Headmaster who couldn't even act like one...thank you, I don't think I could ever repay you."
"You can repay me by putting an end to this war and being an even better Headmaster, that is all I wish for."
"I will not fail you, Headmaster."
"I know you won't, I wouldn't have trusted you with the seal if I knew you were not capale of doing this."
The Headmaster suddenly started to slowly fade and ascend towards the skies.
"Oh would you look at this, the heavens accepts me to enter, my my they do allow perverts up there."
"I guess this is where we part ways Headmaster, thank you for everything and I will not disappoint you."
"Goodbye, Edmon Bennett, my dear advisor and best friend."
"Goodbye and thank you once again, Headmaster Howard Ivo.
