《My Magical System 》Chapter 149: Fruit of Discord
Advertisement
The talk about the awakening of that specific person was the main topic of the morning on the first floor's hallway towards the 10th classroom. It was also the classroom for the students with the poorest magical power.
"What? He awakened?" Ask one of the students while having a surprise expression on his face.
"He did."
Replied the other.
"Eh? No way?"
"It's true, my friend from that classroom saw it with his own eyes when that person used his magical energy to measure his magical power."
"Really?"
"Yes, yes!"
"How's the outcome?"
"Well," the other student shrugged his shoulders. "Not good. Just the same as everyone in that section." He said nonchalantly.
"Pufft, Hahaha," the other student tried to contain his laughter but burst out laughing in the end. "I bet he was too excited that he Awakened his magical energy, and told it to everyone just to show-of. I wonder what kind of face he had when the outcome of his power measurement was shown." He said mockingly while holding his stomach.
"A false-hope!" The third student in their group suddenly interjected.
"Exactly!" The first one nodded.
"Sigh. I guess he was shocked for his shitty life. Hahaha!" Said the second student while having a 'good grief!' Expression on his face.
While squinting his eyes and showing a grin on his face, the first student spat, "That person is shameless enough to feel shocked and embarrassed. Don't forget that he once tried to reach his hand to the beauty from the female department, and is also a member of a great noble family. So, he probably was shameful enough to swallow any embarrassment."
"Right! Ahaha, how can someone be so shameful yet naive at the same time."
While everyone was making fun of him, inside the Merciless Clan, Herro was surprised to hear Fayatzu's news.
"Is it true, Faye?!"
"Yes, Leader. However, the deputy's magical power wasn't as good as you and the others," said Fayatzu as he stopped his hands from working and glanced at Herro.
"Well, it's better than being a non-awakened or having a broken Seed," Herro said with a broad smile. "Regardless, it's worth celebrating!" Finally, his brother was able to ascend huh! He knew it! When his brother Eman was so down for being the only non awakened student in the academy, Herro himself was the one who encouraged him that maybe his awakening would come late. And it turned out to be right. Hehe!

Hopefully, the bad guys would stop bothering his brother from now on.
"Let's go to the nearest pub after the practical lesson!" Fatsu was the one who suggested. "Fufu, let's go together!" Said Paula. They immediately planned out to celebrate his awakening.
Well, even if he awakened with poor magical power, it was still a day worth remembering.
…
The 10th section of the sophomore class went to the clearing in the middle of the woods once again.
They all gawked when they noticed something upon arriving at the place. They could not find the tied boar from yesterday.
"Hmm… Teacher! Where is the boar?" A curious student asked Instructor Stuwart, who was clearly pondering.
Instructor Stuwart narrowed his eyes. Looking at the remains of what became a broken pillar, it was clear that someone broke it. Either the boar broke it on its own or someone did it. However, who and why would they do that? To cook the boar? Maybe. In any case, he couldn't believe that the boar did it on its own. So the only conclusion was someone did it. Regardless, there was no use thinking about it now.
"Hmm… maybe some folks from the faculty took. Well, don't mind it!" Said the instructor to abate the student's puzzlement.
Among the students, Eman just remained silent. Beside him was Fayatzu, who repeatedly tried to summon his magical aura and create a mini gust of wind on top of his palm.
"Look, look, deputy sir! I did it!" Fayatzu said happily as he was calling him.
Eman wondered why this man kept calling him as deputy, even though they were not inside the clan barracks. But he guessed that it was out of habit, probably.
Instructor Stuwart focused his hand to the front. Then he summoned bluish magical energy. The next second, about 25 meters away from them, the ground glowed. Then, something was sprouting from it.
Everyone was staring wide-eyed when the 30 feet tall tree grew out from it. One of its branches was horizontally facing left, then a circle object that seemed like an unfamiliar fruit was hanging from it.
Well, Eman didn't know what kind of fruit it was. He never had seen it on earth. It had a golden-red color and was as big as a volleyball.

What he was most surprised was, he never thought that someone could grow a tree in an instance! This was the real power of elemental magic! Very magical! Eman excitedly exclaimed in mind.
"Let's use that Fruit of Discord as our target today."
Just right after saying it, the student's amazement came out from their mouths.
WOAAAAHH!!!
Everyone did their best to practice their magical elements. Although they were from the lowest class among all the students in the academy, it didn't mean that they were a useless bunch.
Well, those who were in the upper class would probably think that those in the lower were useless.
Since it was hard for them to directly shoot without a proper image of their elemental attack. The first thing they practice was forming or shaping their elemental magic.
Most of the students used fireballs.
Eman wondered if the fireball was a default attack for the fire element. But he pushed the thought at the back of his mind as it was easier to fire a fireball than any other. Also, everyone would love to use fireball. It was destructive and explosive. Especially for men. But the main reason for it was probably because fireballs were easy to manifest. However, although they could use fireball, it didn't mean that they had the same firepower or destructiveness. Everyone's strengths differ from one another.
There was one student who didn't shape his fire into a fireball and sprayed his fire on the target. However, it wasn't accurate and the fire scattered. On top of it, it had a short-range and he was exhausted already. Seemingly wasted all his magical energy in one go.
The instructor yelled at the student, saying that it was a reckless move. He discussed that shaping the flame into a fireball or anything else could also help you control or monitor your magical energy. Spraying could only lead to spontaneous spending of magical energy. And thus, in battle, it was a great failure. Not only in battle but also in some endeavors.
Magical energy could also be described as mana from a gamer's perspective like Eman. So he could somehow understand the Instructor's fury.
Eman felt the student just did an 'aoe' attack or area of effect kind of attack. This kind of attack was usually used to hit multiple enemies at the same time. But yeah, this kind of attack usually needed a lot of mana.
There were a total of 25 students for the 10th class of the sophomore students. They were trying their best to shoot the dangling fruit on the branch.
Although most of them were able to manifest their magical energy, it wasn't easy to hit the dangling target. They needed a lot of effort to shoot it that distance. Some students were able to hit the fruit out of luck. However, the next time they tried to hit it, they failed consecutively.
Eman was more amazed at the fruit. Even if it was burnt, sliced, or shredded to pieces, the next second it sprouts again.
He was puzzled at the concept behind it. Maybe it was just that kind of fruit it was.
The sun was rising at a 10 o'clock angle, emblazoning the area with its warm rays. Everyone around him was so gung-ho as they fired their elemental attacks. They fired and fired unceremoniously.
Regardless, he decided to join the fun.
The next second, all of them gawked in disbelief and stopped what they were doing when suddenly the Fruit of Discord burst out.
"Tsk! Another lucky shot!" One student exclaimed after clicking his tongue. Up until now, no one was hitting the target consecutively so most of them agreed with that student. None of them know who was the person who did the lucky shot just now. But after the Fruit of Discord regrew, it burst out once again in a second.
The process repeated for a couple of times already, but he was still hitting it every time the fruit regrow.
Just then, all of the students were standing still while wide-eyed staring at the only person who was hitting the target continuously.
Silence invaded the area. Even the instructor had his mouth almost dropped on the ground.
