A Lesson In Magic Novels & Stories

“Every student here is brimming with untamed power. Some of you more than you realize. Today, you’ll learn your first lesson: how to silence your mind long enough to hear the pulse of your own magic.” I swallowed, my heart racing and my hand clammy. “Close your eyes,” the instructor commanded. “Listen inward. Let your magic show itself to you.” I obeyed. At first, I couldn't sense or see anything. Just darkness. But then… a flicker. A pulse, faint but disorganized, began to beat fast inside me like a second heart. Warmth spread through my chest, coiling into my veins, until I swore I could almost hear it whisper.

Daisy herself felt the denseness of the wood and felt her butt herself ruminating about the chair itself. Which had many other students muttering about the hard seats and the coldness of the room. “Now let’s get started, Welcome to Strange Magic." This year we are going to be learning about all potion-spells, conjuring, forbidden spells and all you need to know about the magic to do and not to.” He stood up grabbing a vial from his cabinet that had slimy black molasses, at an angel he poured the substance into the cauldron.

Magic ignited in his palm, and I felt a calming warmth as my palm absorbed the beautiful light. "It's natural to feel uneasy when you discover new powers," James instructed me in the basics of magic. The first step was learning to control my strength, which was challenging. James advised me to practice more to improve my abilities while Darcus observed in the background. Unexpectedly, a surge of magic overwhelmed James, injuring him, but he quickly recovered. I felt terrible, but James assured me that setbacks were a part of the learning process.

The spell read: "For the love of all that is magic, I shall find that who was made specially for me. Thou shall love me and cherish me for all thy days to come, Thou shall make me feel on top of the world and bring me a type of happiness that rivals few. And we shall forever be in love with each other till the end of days. Instructions: Say the poem three times, stamp your left foot two times and stamp the right one four times. Clap your hands five times and close your eyes." Suddenly, Matilda found herself saying the words of the poem out loud. She said it three times, stamped her left foot two times, stamped her right foot four times and closed her eyes. After a while, she opened them and

She became excited and smiled saying: “Now, that your first encounter with magic was the horseshoe, you need to learn everything fast and cautiously, the horseshoe is more powerful than what you told me. You have only seen a small portion of its power” Her face turned gloomy as she said: “And unfortunately Kevin is entangled with the issue and can’t escape from it. He has to know everything about it. Both your lives depend on it” At the mention of Kevin, I felt my heart skip a beat. I turned my face to the other side and kept silent fighting to keep my tears in.

So he started searching its bag for any anti-spells portions while the Centaur’s arrows were randomly flying towards their direction without hitting anyone in one in particular. Dike finally found the portion that can be used to destroy enchantment on the Centaur. This portion is made of some special leaves that destroy divinations and enchantments. The oracle gave them in case if a spell was cast on any of them by any witch or mysterious creature during their journey. So the first time they are to use the anti-Spell was on a Centaur though they still have a long journey to go. Some of the warriors argued that it would be a waste of their portion to use it on the Centaur when they could just

“Lies are distasteful Leiya” I immediately fell silent, watching him shake his head. When he walked closer to the window, I noticed a book in his hands. A dark looking, uninteresting book. “Your first lesson,” He announced as he turned to look at me, holding the book with both hands in front of him. “Is to teleport yourself outside your chamber.” He said casually and planted himself onto the chair. He held out the book to me with a straight face. I stared at him, the book and back to him. I was supposed to learn spells from a book? I almost laughed at the idea itself.

Megumi's eyes smiles as she points at something that looks like a mirror maze, she smiled at me and said, "Let's go there!" Smiling at me like that is a foul play Megumi, how can I say no now? Of course I can't so I grabbed her hands and lead her there. The students greeted us and said, "Welcome to our class's Wonderland. If you manage to find the tunnel's end withing 15 minutes, you get a prize of okonomiyaki, a japanese vegetable pancake. So are you in?" I dropped some bills on the entrance and entered with Megumi. Inside was quite dark and filled with mirrors making it quite confusing and scary but Megumi actually seems to enjoy it just when she was about to bumped into a mirror, I pulled

Chapter Forty-Five Days have passed quietly, and it was peaceful. I didn't even realize it's been almost two weeks. The days were actually very peaceful because the lesson was easy to understand, and Professor James was not possessed by demons. Our magic lesson was focused on gathering mana in the surrounding. And my mana was actually recovering at a good pace, thanks to the pearl supplements. My music lesson went well, I didn't know that Lady Marina had a voice, which really helped me practicing the piano. Teacher Fernando was an excellent language and history teacher! I learned from him that Senior's diary was actually notes that may contain secrets of being an Archmage in their view!

I said, surprising myself. He pushed off the wall, “Good. Meet me by the old ruins after sunset, No one needs to know. I’ll teach you some new magic tricks.” He added. That evening, under the fading light, I found myself at the ruins. The air was thick with history and something else, something electric. Riven began with simple lessons, how to feel the pulse of the magic, to listen to the whispers beneath the wind.
