The Sun and Moon Cross Paths

Training

"Alright!" Khole said happily, "We need out empire to grow! Of course we need allies, like Nightmare, so we need to find a few people and persuade them to join us!" Khole said, "Well, how are we going to do that? I don't know anyone" I told her, "I have a few people in mind that we can ask, the first one we need to ask is the god of creation, named Ink! Though they are busy most of the time, I think we can find a way to talk to them" Khole said

"Ink? I was reading a book that had something about the god of creation and destruction, though I never got into it" I told Khole, "Oh, it's probably important that you read that chapter then" Khole said, I nodded.

"Anyways, let's check if they're available" Khole said opening a small portal. They stuck their head in the portal and looked around, "Nope! Not here" Khole said, bring there head out of the portal, closing the small portal

"Guess we have to try another time, what about others?" I asked, Khole shrugged, "Hopefully Ink joins, they know A LOT of people, so I'd hope they have suggestion

I mentally face palmed myself. "Right, anyways, I have something to ask you" I said, Khole ears perked up, "I wrote a letter to Nightmare- OR COURSE I didn't expose myself, but I wrote a letter and was hoping that you'd check if he'd replied to my letter" I said.

"Oh! Okay, as long as you didn't expose yourself, plus, no one knows what I look like, I look WAY different from 2 thousand years ago! I was smaller, and had shorter hair, and I was very chubby, now look at me!" Khole said proudly.

I pat them on the head, as they gave me a cute, adorable smile.

"You still look small and chubby" I told Khole playfully, "W-What! No I don't!" Khole said pouting, I chuckled, "Anyways, of you didn't expose yourself, what name did you name yourself?" Khole asked, "I Put in Star for a name" I told Khole

"Right! From now on, when I go outside, my name is Star!" Khole said happily

"Anyways! As your apprentice, and your teacher, I want to show you a few magic tricks that you need to learn to protect yourself!" Khole said.

I smiled and nodded, and watched carefully at what Khole was about to do.

The bottom of Khole body started to glow, and the room light started to dim, being consumed by the magic light. Khole started to glow as her hair started to lift in the air.

I was amazed at Khole power and how much she has learned since I was gone. Soon a powerful source of magic started to appear in her hands, as a big book appeared in her arms as her magic started to settle

"This is the book of magic, I had to search everywhere for this!" Khole told me, I smiled and approached the book as Khole opened it and showed different kinds of spells

"Alright, we'll started to learn defense before we learn to attack, that is crucial in battles, learning how to make sure your going to be alive" Khole said as she stopped at a page

"Alright, this is how to make a sort of bubble around yourself, kind of like a dome" Khole said, pointing at the spell.

"How do you cast a spell?" I asked, "Cast a spell is about how you feel, kind of like how you summon attacks, magic and spells they're different  in many ways though, so don't compare them. With magic, you have to be born a monster, or a half-breed, with spells you have to be taught correctly, so anyone can do it. With monster magic, it's more weaker then spells, spells have the same amount of strength a determined human has," Khole explained

"Anyways, how to summon a dome is pretty easy once you know what your doing! Let me show you!" Khole said

I smiled and watched

Khole closed her eyes, and concentrated on one thing, and powerfully shouted, "CONVEXUM!"

A power wave of magic pushed the air, making me lose my balance a bit, but I kept watching, as a golden dome protected Khole, Khole saw my reaction and giggled at my amazement

"Wow!" I said, "Hehe, you can do this too!" Khole told me, "Exolvo!" Khole said as the dome fell down with a trinkle

"What does Exo-la-volo mean?" Khole giggled, "It means 'release' this word is used when your spells are cast, and you want to stop them, and it's pronounced X-o-lee-vo" Khole said

"Anyways, it's your turn to try!...but let's go outside for this" Khole said, with discomfort on her face, trying to force a smile.

We both walked outside, the crescent moon barely lighting up the forest, the stars trying to help the dark night turn brighter. A cool night brisk wind passed by going through Dream and Khole clothes.

"Alright! Let's get started!" Khole said, "Right!" I said excited, as I back up from the house a bit.

"...Convexum!"

...
Nothing?

"Convexum!!!" Dream said louder

....
Nothing?

"CONVEXUM!!!!"

A giant wave of magic hit the floor, pushing Khole to the floor, as a big some covered Dream.

The dome was close to Khole, but it was light golden, the color of a golden retriever.

Dream eyes turned to stars as they smiled brightly, "So cool!!!!" Dream said smiling

Khole giggled, "Now how are you gonna get out?" Khole said giggling through her sentence.

"Uhh...how do you say the word? X-lo-vo-lo?" Dream asked, Khole shook her said, with a curled smile.

"X-o-lee-vo" Khole said again, "Right!....Exolvo!" Dream said, as the dome when down with a trickle.

Dream smiled, his eyes glowing, with a visible, enjoyable blush splashed across his face.

"I did it!" Dream said happily, "Great! Now, let's try something else!" Khole said, as she opened the book, as Dream soaked in all the information he could get.
