《I Will Be Recognized》33. Wizarding Academy
Advertisement
Once everyone was finished packing, Professor Graybeard brought us to the dining hall for dinner. We finally saw the academy after a bit of walking and it looked pretty similar to our academy. We traversed through the empty halls and shortly arrived at the dining hall.
Upon entering the dining hall, I immediately noticed the flying candles in the air and the massive chandeliers as well as the rows of tables. It felt like a scene out of a Harry Potter book... What the h*ck, this was exactly how the banquet hall in Harry Potter looked like. Are you sure this isn't called Hogwarts?
"Our friends from the Magic Knight Academy are finally here! Let us give them a warm welcome!" A charismatic old man sitting all the way at the front table on the stage said.
Looking at the man, I had kind of expected him to somewhat look like Dumbledore or something but my expectations were unfounded. His gray facial hair went surprisingly well with his goatee and slick back bun. He was the ideal samurai figure.
We followed Professor Graybeard all the way to the front of the four long tables. As I walked over, I saw Professor Alice sitting on the same table as the old man.
"Please, make yourselves at home here. These two front tables on the middle isle will be your guest tables." Said the old man.
The food was already prepared on the table but no one else seemed to be eating yet; it was as if they were waiting for us. This academy seemed to be extremely formal.
"My name is Samith Gerald, the current headmaster of the Wizarding Academy. Our rules here are the same as the Magic Knight Academy so you are free to wonder off anywhere you wish when classes are over. Your watch's class schedules have already been updated and adjusted for the week. I hope your time here at our Wizarding Academy is enjoyable. Anyway, let us rid ourselves of the formalities and dig in!" With the old man's announcement, the previous silent hall had suddenly bustled with the clattering of kitchenware and murmurs.

I was seated next to a student of the academy with Rachel on my right side. The food was really delicious and a lot of the things were something I had never had before. As I ate on, more and more people started to stare at me in disbelief. The people in my class weren't fooled though; they had seen me in the academy canteen ravishing the food like a beast so they also stepped up their pace. If they didn't that just meant more food for me. Shortly after, we(I) had already finished all the food in my area.
Rachel seemed a bit pitiful so I left some food for her but I was unrelenting toward the others.
Rachel seemed to be full as well so we left to wander around the academy building. There was a map of the campus in our watches so we could navigate the building easily.
I was genuinely curious about the assortment of books in their library but Rachel wanted to exercise since it had became a routine for her after eating.
With that said, we headed to the academy's training area. It was slightly different from our academy since most people here did not train physically, but rather magically.
They had training rooms specifically designed to have a higher concentration of high quality magic particles. The air and magic particles here were already much richer than the Kingdom of Art but with the training rooms, it rose the benefits of training to the next level.
Either way, being in a higher quality environment made the fruits of training much better. Rachel looked a bit dissatisfied that there were no areas for "physical training" but she still went into a training room in the end.
She was probably going to leave after a couple minutes but I didn't mind her and occupied my own training room.

I set a timer on my watch to remind me about class just ten minutes before it started.
I sat there in the middle and released all the mana in my body as well as absorbing the higher quality magic particles. It wouldn't make too huge a difference but a difference was a difference. I wasn't one to complain when there were gains to be made.
Once I had completely exchanged it, I could feel the mana coursing through my body powerfully. I had long since reached the Mana Body state a week ago. When my mana is completely full, my body receives a 10% boost in sturdiness, strength, and agility. It was something that knights without magic potential could only wish for.
To reach the next stage: Mana Aura, my mana purity had to be refined to the level of a True Sage also known as the nineteenth stage of Magic cultivation. There were records of rare occurrences where some prodigies could reach that stage before breaking through to the True Sage realm but the chances of that happening to me were slim to none. I could also continue training my Mana Circulation but that was kind of boring so I just practiced level 2 spells and Dual Cultivation.
Outside of the rooms, there were numbers labeled on them. These numbers represented the level of spells they could absorb up to. I was currently in a level 5 training room which could absorb magic of the 5th level. Of course, if your manifestation foundations were close to perfect like wizards, casting a simple level 5 spell could cause damage close to a level 6 or 7 spell.
Over the course of three months before coming here, we had learned about casting level 2 and 3 spells. Unlike what the Professor Lapis said about spells being hard to learn, I thought it was actually pretty simple. All you had to do was memorize the magic circle for the corresponding spell.
By using mana to recreate the magic circle in your hand, the spell could be cast. Once you mastered a spell, the circles would no longer appear and all you had to do was think of the magic circle for the spell to be cast. Even though magic circles did not appear, it would still take at least a second to cast the spell. But if you have Instant Cast, then the spell would be cast instantaneously with no delay at all.
As spell levels increase, the size of the magic circles increased as well as the amount of circles that could be identified. Level 2 spells consisted of 2 circles, level 3 with 3 circles, 5 with 5 circles and so on. All magic circles looked different from the other and they could theoretically be altered but it had yet to be achieved. This was also why there was a limited amount spells known to man. The magic circles for casting spells had always been common knowledge among magicians since forever so no one really knows who created them, or really, where they came from.

Character Development Gallery | Wikia | Official Site | Patreon | Facebook | Twitter ————————————————————————————————————- Summary ————————————————————————————————————- In a world where everyone can use magic, where treasure hunters, alchemists, and warlocks are common professions, and where mage duels are the most popular form of entertainment, Kiel is a "non-mage" - a person who doesn't have the aptitude to use magic on regular basis - until he meets Elaru - a spell breaker of mysterious origin, wielder of the fabled 'Aethernea of Sight' - eyes that can see magic, who claims she can give him the power to become the greatest mage world of Halnea has ever seen. Coerced into binding his soul to hers, Kiel finds himself pulled into a web of secrets, where one wrong step could end in his untimely demise. Who, or what is Elaru Wayvin really? What is her relation to the ruling 15 noble mage families? What is the source of The Ink - a mysterious plague spreading through the continent? What is the Aetherneal bond between them and what has it turned them into? What is the truth behind gods and divine magic? Why has the third race of Halnea - the Ascended, mysteriously disappeared, and what is the connection between the remaining two races? In the search for truth, Kiel and Elaru enroll at the most prestigious University of Magic. Yet, between awkward social events, falling in love, thrilling competitions, blood curling battles, irritating peers, and damnable love rivals, there is little time for studying. And as if avoiding sinister plots from all sides wasn't difficult enough, their new detestable mentor takes them on a voyage into the uncharted forbidden zone filled with unspeakable secrets, ancient riddles, man-eating monsters, and deadly traps. A quest that just might end up changing the fate of the entire world. ————————————————————————————————————- What do readers say about it? ————————————————————————————————————- "Aethernea is my absolute favorite read on wattpad, I love it as much as I love Harry Potter and The Mortal Instruments. You have such an amazing way to make the words flow and unbelievable descriptions. Unique characters and a great story line. All the small clues and mystery in the humor and fantasy just makes the book perfect in my opinion. I read all chapters in two days! Less than 48 hours even! I'm REALLY looking forward to the next update, the world of Aethernea is so deep and well thought out, it's beautiful and magical. God I can't believe how creative you are, so many small details with so many families and stories everywhere. Purely fantastical, I admire you." - astro-logical from Wattpad "I love love love Aethernea so much! It is amazing how you created this new world with different creatures, magics, looks, illnesses, and evil! I was blown away by your explanation of the Mana pools and how to weave magic! Simply stunning really! You are one of my favorite authors and Wattpad and I am so glad I stumbled upon Aethernea because it is worth all of my time reading!" - Adriana_V_Blade from Wattpad "I absolutely am loving Aethernea so far. I am certain you belong in the ranks among J.K. Rowling, Rick Riordan, Suzane Collinings, and many more great and wonderful authors. You opened up a whole new world for me, which only a few great authors have accomplished. While it's true I am pulled into each and every book, few are able to capture me to the point of inescapability. Though, somehow, you have managed this feat. I thank you for this and more! You are a wonderful author and can't wait for more to come!" - daughterofpercabeth7 from Wattpad "WOW! just caught Aethernea in gravity tales! Just when I was getting tired of most xianxia novels this appears and completely blows my mind! I really like the depth and the humorous touch you give the characters and it seems you have the storyline well thought out since you are always hinting about things in the past and the future. It has been such an enjoyable experience that I couldn't stop reading, finishing it in just one day and laughing my way through most of the episodes. But what keeps me so excited for what's coming is the magic system and the professions of the world you are creating.The magic mechanics have such a huge potential! They are simple but at the same time they open so many possibilities. Even though we still only understand the basics of transmutation and augmentation, I expect them to enable fights where there is need of quick thinking and skill, and not just brainless overpower of every opponent. In a way this makes me reminiscent about The Mistborn Series by Brandon Sanderson, which are one of my favorite series ever. The thing that sets Mistborn apart from any other series is that the mechanics are so well thought out that they could be used to create a super cool triple A video game and I cannot help but hope Aethernea reaches the same level or even surpass it. I really think it has that potential. Really hope this series gets the attention it deserves. As for me, Thursdays and Sundays just got a whole more exciting! =)" - AlexMLion "Your writing is fantastic and riveting, the chapters and character flow so smooth, and it captivates the reader with the many twist and turns that tricks one mind into thinking this is about to happen, when suddenly the exact opposite happens. You truly are in inspirational writer with a brilliant mind that can see and put words into chapters and into this one truly awesome book. Thank you!" - AshleyStaar from Wattpad "I loved this story, such detailed description and accurate words, both Kiel and Elaru completely caught my attention, your writing style is just beautiful and the plot is astounding and it's just the first episode! This kind of fantasy stories are my favourite, it has a lot of magic in it, rivalry and sense of humour." - BlackWhiteD from Wattpad
