7 The True Alfheim!

On the Great Elder's office.

"Did you see that?" Great elder asked the five elders and the twenty teachers.

"Y-yes, that magic was Alfheim, right?" One of the elders said. Alfheim, was again, a lost magic. It was the ice of destruction thousands of years ago. Alfheim has no magic weaknesses except for physical attack, so fire doesn't even melt it.

"There are a lot of talents sprouting this year, more than normal." Said the elder while he stroked his beard, "Especially, that boy." and looked at the window.

"That boy? you mean the pretty boy?" Said one of the teachere, Benedict, a strict PE teacher, "Isn't he just some pop star that has decent magic-"

"He's not just a pretty boy..." Great elder closed his eyes, remembering back the situation, "Did you see the weapon his holding."

"You mean the one he cut through the Alfheim Ice?" Benedict questionably answered, "What about it."

Great elder made a big sigh and looked at the staff, "That was no ordinary weapon." The room was already brimming with curiousity, "It was a legendary-class weapon!" Great elder continued.

The whole room which was brimming with curiousity became a destructive bomb, shouting at the same time, "Whaaaat!!!!"

While on Alpheus' room...

[Alpheus, showing up the weapon was a big miscalculation. I detected that 3 people has felt the weapon's presence.] Lady tutorial said on his head.

Alpheus who is laying on his bed, either regretted and contented on what he did earlier. The only thing that could break Alfheim was a physical attack but it needs a strong wielder and a strong weapon.

If Alpheus didn't interrupt the fight, there would be a murder on the entrance exam. Alpheus made a big sigh, "What should I do now..."

Those who were done with the fight does not need their presence tomorrow since they are done introducing their capabilities. "A week before the results show up" Alpheus muttered and stared at the white ceiling, "I should sleep for now."

zZ zZ zZ.... Morning...

"Onii-chan, wake up... A pretty lady came to visit you." An angelic voice can be heard. "five more minutes..." Alpheus said lazily.

"Jeez" Megumi waited for five minutes... and another minute... and another. Megumi's nerves sprouted, "WAKE UP!" and punched Alpheus on the stomach.

...

"Why would you do that Megumi?" Alpheus knelt on the floor and felt the pain on his stomach. "A girl came here to visit you." Megumi said with arms crossed and one side of the cheek filled with air.

"A girl?" Alpheus was clueless. Alpheus then wore his home clothes, a simple grey short and black t-shirt. He walked down the stairs and looked at the visitor.

The flowing white hair and sparkly eyes, "Silvia?" Alpheus went confused, "What are you doing here?"

"Hi Alpheus, I just want to say thank you." Silvia smiled softly, while really, she was frustrated. She can't think of ever killing someone.

Alpheus made a small sigh and walked down to sit beside Silvia, "It's okay, I know about your situation." Alpheus said.

Silvia confused, "How did you know about Alfheim?" She never thought that someone like Alpheus, who was a commoner, knew such legendary magic. It was lost for thousands of years, what can Silvia think of something else?

"Yes." Then Alpheus told Silvia about the full description of the Alfheim that even Silvia does not know about. Silvia smacked the table in shock, "So it can be cured?" Silvia shouted but then got embarassed and covered her mouth, "S-sorry." Silvia said softly

Alpheus stood up and went to the kitchen, just besides the living room while the opposite of the room was the dining room. The kitchen can see both of it. Alpheus went to make tea while also talking, "Yes, but I need to find a way. I can't help you for now."

*blurp blurp*

The sound of water filled the room as Silvia became speechless. Alpheus came back with two cups filled with tea, "It's not much but please enjoy" he said and sipped tea. "Can you wait?" Alpheus asked.

Silvia, who's eyes widened, did not believe Alpheus, "How can a commoner like you know the cure?" Silvia said in disbelief.

Alpheus stood up speechless that got Silvia slightly shocked, "Follow me..." and lead Silvia trough the back door. Silvia stopped after seeing the medium-sized backyard while Alpheus went to the center of it.

Alpheus looked back as he revealed a chilly aura and said, "... Alfheim!" cold breeze went on all direction as Silvia dropped his jaw, "H-how did you-" Silvia was speechless, "It's also controlled perfectly."

He noticed that the ground was still patches of grass and Alpheus was sane, "This is the true Alfheim." Silvia said in shock. Alpheus then released his aura and Alfheim disappeared.

He stared at Silvia and said, "Trust me. I'll help you." Alpheus said.

*Swish!*

The moment Silvia blinked, Alpheus disappeared to notice a comfortable pat on her head, "But the moment you leak out that I have Alfheim, you will never... I mean ever, learn the true ways of Alfheim." Alpheus said.

Silvia, who was still shock nodded slighty. "Good, then let's finish tea. It's really wasteful to leave it behind." Alpheus said as he walked back in the living room.

'If I can be close with Alphy, then I'll be able to master Alfheim!' Silvia thrusted her fist with determination and walked back to the living room.

Silvia sat down and also sipped tea and asked, "How much power are you hiding?" Silvia asked.

Alpheus made a big sigh and said, "You know... you're the only one who knows about this. Even Megumi doesn't know." and scratched his head.

"Did I just hear my name!" Megumi shouted upstairs.

"No Megumi, continue your homework I gave you!" Alpheus shouted back.

Silvia was more confused, "I'll keep this a secret... I promise!" she said randomly, "So please... Teach me and tell me how to cure Alfheim and forge it to its fullest power!"

Alpheus was then dumbfounded that he saw Silvia's tear coming out on the corner of her eyes, "I will" Alpheus said in a comforting voice, "So for now, let's meet on the park this Saturday."

Silvia's eyes then changed from sadness to sparkling happiness, "Yes!"

...

"Bye!" Silvia said as she went out of the door.

"Bye..." Alpheus said in a soft voice while waving goodbye. Silvia went into her car and sped away.

Alpheus then closed the door and sat down on the chair while sipping tea, "That girl is too terrifying. It's too bad if I let her go berserk like that." Alpheus said with a slight smile.
