Light bell sounds began running in mour heads letting us know it was end of class, "Ohhh looks like that's end of class . " Professor Doddle announced, prompting everyone to begin packing their things .
"Where's our next class? . . " I asked Jay standing up .
"After lunch we head to fourth floor . . . it's pretty cool Professor Annabelle has a HUGE library of monster and creatures . . . It's more of a hands on lesson . . . . we learn through interacting with simulations . " Jay smiled .
"Ohhh that sounds really cool!" I smiled back .
"Yah!!! It's defiantly more fun than these sit and listen types . " Daisy making our way out the class .
"Yah . . . incredibly boring lesson . . . . Helen and I already know most this stuff . . . " Grace yawned .
"Yeah . . . I know what you guys mean . . . I've been in school most my life as well . . . . I was really hoping that I would have grand adventures . . . . rather than trying to fit it in the weekend . . " I sighed .
"You're really enticed with the adventuring life… . " Jay joked .
"You guys won't understand adventuring and discovering the the unknown is almost unheard of in my world!!!" I expalined .
"You're not wrong the thrill of adventuring is quite addictive, untold treasures and riches and stuff . " Helen agreed as we walked into the dining hall .
Morganna was already there sitting on the Phoenix table shooting a death glare at anyone who tried to take any seats near her promptly scaring off the students . "Hey friends! Over here!!!" Morganna yelled with a giant smile waving at us .
"Well . . . at least we don't have to find seats . " Jay said walking in her direction .
"Afternoon . " We all greeted Morganna .

"Afternoon! I saved you guys seats!" She smiled as we took our seats .
"Thanks!" we all thanked her .
"Ahh it was no problem . " She smiled happily returning to her lunch . .
We all waited patiently till our food arrived, "By the way! I overhead some Kraken members talking about Paul and speculating what he's doing over at Eshia . " Morganna said leaning in forward speaking in a lower quieter tone .
"Really what's he up to? . . " Daisy asked looking extremely interested .
"So the older students have been saying that he's gone to meet Travis's older Sister . " Morganna gossiped .
"But for what reason??!!" Daisy asked almost green with jealousy .
"No one knows exactly for what . . . but apparently they've noticed when she comes to the schoo . . . . they would at least spend a few nights together in his dorms . " Morgana answered .
"Nonono . . . that can't be!!! He's not in a relationship!" Daisy replied in disbelief .
"Daisy . . . . . They don't need to be in a relationship to do stuff . . . " Grace replied to daisy sending her further and further into despair . I must admit even hearing that reply from Morgana sent a deep sinking feeling in my gut . . . . . I know he's not that kind of guy . . . . but a part of me thinks he could be . . . . . There's no other plausible reason . . . . .
"You okay Emilia? . . " Jay asked .
"Huh what? . . . Yeah I'm good… . . just you know worried about Calista . . . " I replied .

"Nothing to worry about! You defeated her hologram and you'll only be getting better with trining . " Jay replied with a giant smile .
"Yeah . . . Emilia you need to have more faith in yourself . " Helen smiled .
"Yeah I guess I do . . . . " I replied lying to them till finding it hard to stay positive .
"So Morgana what have you been up to? . . " I asked .
"Well . . . . currently trying to find ways for me to get some special reagents for myself . . . " Morgana replied .
"Your Voodoo stuff? . . " Jay asked curiously .
"Yup . . . . since the school doesn't grow them naturally, I'll either have to visit town or see if there's any dealers . " Morgana replied .
"You know what . . . . I won't pry further it sounds all too shady . " Jay replied .
"So Jay have you read more of the novel? . . " Helen asked .
"Yeah . . . . almost finished it now . " He replied causing Helen to have the most giant smile . .
"Emilia? . . . do you really think Paul is in a secret relationship with her? . . " Daisy asked me quietly almost whispering .
"No I don't think so . . " I replied trying to reassure her .
"Do you think they . . . . . " She asked taking a small pause trying to think of a way to word it, her face turning bright red like a tomato .
"I'm sure they aren't… . . I answered her quickly saving her from the embarrassment of asking .
"You sure? . . . " She questioned looking hopeful .
"Positive . . . " I smiled even though I didn't quite know myself .
"Do you think he's . . . . been with someone before? . . " She whispered quietly as possible making sure no one else heard luckily everyone was either engaged in their own conversation while eating .
"As far as I know . . . he's only been with one person . . " I answered her .
"Do you think . . . my colour or race is an issue? . . " She asked trying to stay quiet .
"I'm know for sure know it doesn't . " I smiled .
"Really?!!!!" Daisy asked again in almost complete disbelief .
"Do you really like him?? . . . " I asked Daisy politely .
"Because he's so amazing! . . . . He does so many great things for people . . . . a kind soul is hard to find . " Daisy replied .
"Yeah . . . . . Even before he came here he was always a kind and nice person . . . . . But I guess know you guys know him more time I do now… . How many years has he been here???? . . . " I asked curiously .
"hmmm . . . . . I dunno . . . . he saved me about maybe four or five years ago . . . . . " Daisy replied .
"Hmmm . . . . . if I ever catch him when he's free . . . . . I defiantly need to ask him about all this stuff . . . . " I replied to Daisy .
"Does he have many friends back home ??? . . . Is he famous as well??? . . . " Daisy asked .
" . . . We used to have a group of friends . . . . but when life happened and we all kinda went our separate ways . . . I'm really not sure about everyone else . . . but our world is very different . . . . . I'm sure he didn't have magic back then so he couldn't help as much as he can now . . . . . " I replied .
"I seeeee . . . " Daisy nodded in understanding .
"When you stayed with him did he ever tall about his life back home??? . . . " I asked curiously .
"Ummmm yeah I was really curious about his home and friends . . . . he would always tell about this girl . . . . . But the life played a harsh joke with him . . . . . And some other friends that he would happily 'take bullets for', apparently they are metal projectiles that go super-fast and can kill people . " Daisy answered with a giant smile . "What happened to you two that lead up to a falling out??? . . . . " she asked in return very cautiously .
"We just had a disagreement . . . and I'm pretty emotional and got him emotional . . . . . We both said things we regret . . . . . " I answered .
"Didn't you guys make up after?? . . . . " She asked looking concerned .
" . . . . By the time one of us did . . . . . I guess the damage was done and we was better off being strangers . " I answered .
"Ohhh . . . is it okay if I'm friends with Paul and you?? . . . . " She asked worryingly .
"Yeah of course . . . I won't let whatever happens between me and him to affect us . . . . also seeing him again after so long . . . . kinda made me forget our last fight . " I smiled to Daisy .
"I know you and him had a complicated friendship…" she replied a little concerned .
"I know . . . . . " I replied .
"Do you have any idea what he's doing in Eshia???" I asked .
"Hmmm not really . . . . . But I'm sure he's doing something to help people . " Daisy smiled .
