Seven Magics Academy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

I grunted in answer. She'd described what I felt exactly, but I doubted she saw a human girl in her mind."The city looks like the end of a rainbow," Ryden added.I nodded, expanding my wings, making sure they were still in one piece. When I was satisfied, I relaxed a little. "Keep your wits about you, Ryden, my friend," I whispered."I will."Opulent grass gave way to crystal-paved streets and buildings, ranging in color from light red to sunny yellow, sapphire blue to the palest purple. The structures correlated with the roads. Sunny yellow streets contained businesses, homes, and gardens swathed in yellow. The purple streets correlated with purple buildings, blue with blue, green with green, and so on. Elves were everywhere, busily bustling about their lives. After several minutes I realized the elves wore clothing associated with street colors. Where all of the colors appeared overwhelming at first, their meaning quickly became apparent. It was a pecking order. Fascinating, I

"Silindra, it is me. I know I am usually melancholy. But you are in my home, in my garden, my most favorite place in all the world." Devoran smiled, and I noticed the tiny wrinkles feathering near his eyes. "Can I show you around?" he asked, rising.I nodded, feeling out of sorts, but stood as well. The sooner we finished with pleasantries, the sooner I could be on my way. "Good." He looked at Veb. "You are excused," he barked."Thank you, sire." Veb bowed and left.Once the water curtain resettled itself and Veb was gone, Devoran smiled. "I know why you've come."I wanted to respond, but the girl inside my mind tried to break free at that moment, pushing against my mind, and I found my consciousness floating like a cloud back to her time. It was apparent she missed a boy named Gabe. I found it interesting her love's name was the same as mine.***"Happy Halloween, Snow. I know you hate girlie stuff, so I only put a little bit of clear gloss on your lips, added just a few sparkles to

When I opened my eyes, it surprised me that I had, in fact, fallen asleep. My body hummed with invigoration. It also dazed me to realize I somehow saw the world differently. Was it the elves' eternal sight? There hadn't been any pain.I got to my feet, shaking out my wings, allowing the circulation to reach every tendon and vein. They felt good. I felt good.A large bumblebee flew in, lazily making its way to the wall on the right of my bed. It bumped into the door several times."Oh, you poor thing." I went over and cupped the bee between my hands, took it over to the window, and released it. The garden's aroma filled my nose. It still smelled like Gabriel's blood, and my knees went weak. I was hungry.Directly south of the bed was an opening. I peeked inside, happy to see it was the relieving room. I went in and took care of my necessities. When I returned to the bedroom, I noticed a mirror hanging on the wall next to the bed. It wasn't there a moment ago. "Where did you come from?"

"I'm sixteen," Snow said. "But I think I'm having a birthday soon." She cleared her throat, and I noticed she fought back the tears."You think?" I asked simply, putting my hands to my hips.She nodded. "I don't belong in this time. Where I'm from, I recently turned sixteen. Since I've been here with you, I keep getting these flashes of conversations from where I'm from, and I'm hearing people I care about. One of them, Gabe, he said I had a birthday coming up, which would mean I've been away nearly a year." She looked devastated. A tear ran down her cheek and, as though the feelings were my own, I felt an overwhelming agony. In my mind, I saw a flash of steel, heard the clips of conversation. Saw her in a beautiful dress. Watched her get bitten by a hunter. Saw her kiss a dark-haired boy who bore a striking resemblance to my Gabriel. (At least the girl had good taste in men.) She walked through a room full of magical creatures. Talked to a blonde human, she called Cindy. I saw

My sister Sharra and I had been born with wings, and at a young age, became quite adept at flying. I had a training period, a time where I learned what it meant to beat my wings against the air, turn them, or tuck them according to what kind of flying I intended and where I wanted to go. With the little unicorn, there was none of that. Once we were out of the forest, Envy leaped into the sky and soared like she'd been flying forever."It took me ten tries before I could fly without crashing into something," Ryden whispered."She's magnificent," I agreed, unable to take my eyes from her."This is amazing, wonderful, stupendous," Envy said, her deep violet wings beating against the bright sky.I flew over to her. "It really is the best, right?" Her giddiness and enthusiasm rubbed off on me. Snow White was enjoying herself as well. I've never flown before, she squealed happily. Her voice caught. Is it all right if I talk? I was nervous about speaking before, but now you know I'm here w
