《The Inventor of Magic》18: Little Sleep
Advertisement
I'm back, I'll try to stick to one chapter as always. However the lengths will be varying so keep that in mind. Anyway for now, enjoy! ^O^
(p.s. I apoligize in advance for how badly written this short chapter is. I had a small pause and now I just need to get back into it. ^_^)
>>>Zach POV
*Yaaaawn*
I yawned loudly as I stretched and stood up from my workbench.
"It's time to get some rest I think... I'll just deliver this in the afternoon. Therefore I'll get more time to work on it before the deadline.", with a plan formed in my mind I mindlessly shuffled towards my bedroom and slumped down upon the bed.
Ugh, time to rest... *snore* *snore*
...

5 minutes later.

*beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*
"Shut up!", I roared loudly at the alarm clock hoping that my anger would forcefully silence it.
*beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*
"Ugh fine!", as fast as a bullet from a gun my arm shot towards the alarm clock and proceeded to hotel it across the room. As the plug was forcefully yanked from its socket the alarm clock gave out one last pitiful *beep* before the LCD display flickered out and disappeared.
By now it was too late to try and get to sleep again even though I must not have slept long. That alarm tells me that I need to go to Silyan soon... Ugh.
Groggily I get out of bed and walk over to my bathroom whilst taking my clothes off. I haven't showered in two days and the oily scent from my work shop is not that pleasant.
After showering I walk over to my wardrobe where I plucked out some random clothes before chucking them on and leaving for Silyan.

Today I thought that I might as well use the silver wings, even though they're inferior to various other modes of transport at my disposal, as I know have a good alibi for using them. Lucy.
As soon as I had left the house and locked it up behind me I quickly shot off towards the prestigious academy.

Later that day in the Class A room.

>>>Miss Crow POV
"Now then, onto the next topic y-",
*BANG*
Shit! Huh, damn that scared me. It's him! Late. Again?!
"Sorry Miss, my alarm clock was broken.", Zach explained as he entered the classroom
*sigh* "Fine, find your seat.",
"Yes Miss.",
"Now, where was I?... Ah yes, I want everyone to bring their lists of chosen lesson to me with their names on.",
Quickly the students passed their slips of paper along to the front where I collected them all.
These have to go to the Vice-Headmistress so that she can sort these out and make sure that everyone has their places to go.
If you ask me its a waste of time. School life is so~ dull. Especially here. All these posh kids talking casually about things that poorer families would need to spend multiple years wages on. Although... I guess I shouldn't complain, I get my wages from this set up.
Oh! What's this? Three people have actually chosen Independant Research.
"Anyone who has chosen Independant Research will need to submit a written explanation of your Research and Goal and any resources or help you require from the school before handing it to me... Right, with that done you can all head to your first lesson. Dismissed!",
I went over to my chair in the corner as the students filed out from the room.
"Miss Crow.", a feminine voice called out to me as I had just sat down.

"Yes, Lucy?",
"We've already planned out our Individual Research. Here's the plans.",
Lucy passed across a stack of papers.
Already!
"Wait, we?",
"Yes? Zach and I.",
What! Lucy Improm with that kid. Ugh... I already feel that something bead's going to happen.
"Right, thanks. I'll pass it across. You'll be called when these get looked at.",
"Thank you Miss.",
Lucy energetically bounded out with a smile on her face and Zach followed.
Once I had followed the unusual pair out of the room with my eyes I turned towards the papers I was given.
"What!",
Amazing! No surprise she's the daughter of Improm Industries Boss with the amount of thinking that's gone into this. They haven't planned exactly what they're going to do first but everything else is already planned for...
But what is Zach going to do?
******
Again I apoligize for the length and quality of this one. I've just got back into writing them and I need to fall back into step.
Anyway, anyone who wanted to see a talented aspect of Zach will enjoy the next part! ^_-

Dhanurana
Out of an unnaturally quiet night, a bedraggled woman in noble finery requests access to the southern capital. Who she is has been lost to time for most, but her continued existence will throw everything further out of balance. Janurana had barely survived her royal house's destruction at the hands of foreign invaders, surviving day by day in the scattered pocket forests and arid shrub lands, constantly escaping the ghosts of her past. The south has barely survived their recent Pyrrhic victory against the north immediately followed by a coup. The north is bloodied but unbowed, on the brink of civil war, but still ready to take up arms against the southern invaders. The leaders of the south cannot afford another obstacle. And Janurana is just that. Yet her chance meeting with a woman expelled from the warrior class named Dhanur gives them both a chance to avenge the ones they loved, finish what they failed to do, and return to a normal life. *** Set in a fantasized bronze age India featuring LGBT female leads. Told in an omniscient pov with glances into multiple characters. This is my first book even if I've been working on it for a while but I hope you can all still find some enjoyment and take a break from everything happening in the world. Remember to work on your dreams. :)
