《The Magical Workman》The Magical Workman Chapter 6: Testing the Power
Advertisement
A bit short and lacking but here you go
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I walk with my parents I contemplate which elements I’ll have and whether or not I’ll have enough magic power to successfully use these elements. Even though I said I don’t really care, I’m really hoping I can use magic, cause magic is really cool.
As I thinking about this stuff I almost missed my parents stopping in front of a big wooden building, but i catch myself and start too.
“Here we are son, Now don’t get too discouraged if you don’t have enough magic power remember neither me nor your mother can use magic” (Dad)
“Ok dad” I say as we walk inside the building
Looking around I see 12 kids my own age, and their parents. The kids + the parents are lined up in front of an old man wearing a white robe with gold embroidering holding an orb of some sorts.
I whisper to my dad asking what the orb is and he responds by saying that it was what tested the magical power of people.
My parents and I walk over and stand in line. While standing I listen to all the different results the people in front of me get.
“50 magical power has the ability to become a magician please stand over there” (Old Man)
“5 magical power has no ability to become a magician kindly leave the building” (Old Man)
“10 Magical Power has no ability to become a magician kindly leave the building” (Old Man)
“Hey dad, what do the numbers mean?” I kindly ask my father
“Well the numbers are the strength of your magical power, the minimum required to become a magician is at least 50, well the highest has numbered in the 250’s” (Dad)
As my dad explained this I noticed that everyone else had already gone and it was now my turn. So I walked up ,with my parents following close behind.

“Hello young man my name is Charles, may I kindly ask you for your name?” (Charles)
“My name is Wolfe” I swiftly reply
“Ok Wolfe, if you would so kindly place your hand upon this orb to test your magical power” (Charles)
So with a swift motion of my arm, my hand is deposited upon the orb. The numbers at first slowly increase going from 1 to 2 to 5. Then it starts to really pick up the pace. The numbers start to fly by going from 5 to 15 to 60 to 200, until the numbers breeze through the thousands and even the ten thousands. The orb starts to shake and churn and all of a sudden explodes turning into millions of shining particles floating through the air.
The old man with a deathly pale face mutters “God”
In a matter of fact tone I say “How could that be possible I obviously have two loving wonderful parents that brought me into this world how could I be a god, Right Mom and Dad”
Quickly turning around gave me a sudden surprise as both my parents had fainted and were collapsed on the wooden floor of the building.
I turned around yet again to ask the Old Man why so much magical power could possibly make me a god, although now that I think about it the my dad said the highest numbers was in the 250’s.
But to my surprise yet again instead of the old man I was face to face with a tall and wiry man wearing a golden colored robe.
“Hello young man, I would like to invite you, all expenses paid in full, to the Horakle Academy the best academy on the Human Continent.” (Mysterious Man)
“My name is Wolfe Mister,Although I dutifully accept I would like to know for what reason you are inviting me to your esteemed academy” I proudly say

“My name is Barth, The headmaster of Horakle Academy. You are being invited because of that absurd amount of magical power” (Barth)
Just as he says those words my parents who had earlier fainted shot to their feet and both shouted.
“HE ACCEPTS”
Barth gave out a short chuckle while pulling a few sheets out of his robe. Handing them over he told us that these were the registration forms and if I really wanted to go I could mail these in within the next few months and still get in for the start of next years first term.
My parents, being super energetic, almost rip Barth’s hands out with the registration form still in them.
Continuously shouting thank you over and over again until Barth finally leaves, my parents almost crush me to death with a massive hug afterward. Although I don’t die I faint right then and there.

The Destiny Detour
In a kingdom putting together the pieces after a series of devastating magical wars, trouble is brewing. At least that's what the Seer's vague warning to Princess Lillya claims. That warning sends young Sorceress Rosaliy and enigmatic ruffian Drake from one end of the world to the other searching for answers (and lost magical children). The Destiny Detour is third in the Black Pearl Series, but the events of this story occur 10 years after the first two, and it focuses on different characters in the world. It should be able to stand alone. If you are interested, the beginning of the series is available on Amazon and most e-book places: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B01AYLLKK8

Sweet Minds
"No one can see it, some can feel it, and only the few can use it. We belong to the few." Marith Merryfield felt anything but merry that morning. She found herself waiting for a delayed train on a deserted platform, in the freezing cold of the Dutch autumn. Just when the strangeness is making her consider turning around and going back home an empty train rolls into the station. For reasons unclear to this day she decides to get onboard. An unlikely, and quite impossible, train accident is about to hurtle her into a world she had always suspected existed. It was a dark and absurd place she had rejected and suppressed when she was young. Now she would need that dormant part of herself to survive. After a brief hospitalization she must choose between two continents and finds herself reluctantly boarding a plane to Oregon to be reunited with her shadows. She returns to the town she grew up in, which is where her father still lives and her childhood memories linger. By the end of the week the mysterious train accident turns out to be the least of her problems. Her life was never supposed to become this serious this fast. Through an improbable and unfortunate series of events she is soon introduced to a motley crew of characters that appear to be carrying the same struggles through life. They possess a familiar sense of inadequacy and insecurity. Marith realizes that for the first time in her life she has found herself a tribe, or, as they prefer to call it, a Chain. She is introduced to a world of Prophets, Runners and Mages led by an Oracle and a Watchmaker. Over the course of several weeks Marith learns that, together with her Chain, she is expected to save this fabric of reality, by fighting a mysterious and immortal creature and his aggressive pet. In order to have a chance at overcoming this force of nature she has to revisit the darkest and most desolate corners of her mind. ***** The total word count of the first 12 chapters amounts to about 85.000 words. The total word count of the first 30 chapters will amount to about 225.000 words. My chapters range, roughly, from 5.000 to 10.000 words. I post with irregular intervals, on random days and at different times. I hope you will enjoy the story! English is not my first language and I am very much open to constructive criticism. Disclaimer: I regularly use impressionistic or abstract language on purpuse, when I think it might benefit the story.
