64 Growing up {5}

*Yami Pov*

(Another time skip :P)

And so, another 2 years passed.

'Realising a mistake in my plan, I started to actually attend school so I can even get into the magic highschool. I need to awaken my elements after all. I made this realisation half way through these past 2 years. With that, as of now, Mo Fan had arrived at this world. The normal one, that is. I ended up being a little too generous, so now I only have 2 million dollars with 750k being spent on the family. You might be asking:

"Oi Yami, why are you saving money? Isn't it just useless since you have nothing to spend it on as of now?! And how will you explain you got the damn money?". The answer is simple. I need money for my mid-tier awakening to get an additional 2 elements. And its pretty simple to explain it. Mages make a large sum of money, so have this much shouldn't be too hard to cover up.

Now, 2 months remain until the exams for the magical high school, and I gotta admit, I can relate with Mo Fan. Having to cram in 9 years worth of information in just 3 months is a near impossible feat, so what did I do? I upped his comprehension and memory. Basically, he can comprehend things more easily and he has a better memory. Though, the comprehension only counts for understanding topics, not magic. And with the help of the O-So generous me, I have expended extensive amounts of money to buy books for him. Granted, there were quite a few awkward situations. Now, we arrive at the present. The beginning of the test.

[Mo Fan, are you nervous?] I questioned

[Are you not?] he questioned. Since I only reincarnated in this world, in his world, I don't exist. So, he still hasn't exactly gotten accustomed to me. He can trust me, but cant get used to me.

[Nope. Even if I fail, which I wont, I will still be able to use magic. In fact, I already can. And I have a rare element, so if they were to not do it, it is the same as saying no to receiving free gold with no penalties. What's the point? Though I cant say the same for you. Cramming 9 years worth of knowledge into 3 months with your tiny-a** brain? I know you wanted revision, but still. Oh, but there was an interesting subject I picked up thanks to that. What did you call it? Science. Yeah, I got the basics down of it.] I said

[Wait, you have an element? Which one? Is it an advanced or basic one? And you are learning science? Way to go, genius brother of mine.] said Mo Fan in a sarcastic voice.

[The element is a secret. You'll have to find out. And don't make fun of me. There was practically no information about science in any libraries. How does your dumb brain even know science? Do you come from a different world or something?] I questioned sarcastically

[Gets me wondering sometimes. Ha ha ha.....] he said while rubbing the back of his head nervously

[But c'mon, at least tell me a hint of what it is.] said Mo Fan

[No. But since you wont get any information about it, Ill just say this. I awakened 2 elements, not one.] I said while putting my index finger on my mouth.

[2? Are you a mid-tier mage?] he questioned

[Who knows? Maybe you will know when you awaken your elements. Anyways, catch you later.] I said before running at a modern pace.

[Yeah, catch you late—... wait, did he just say "Element(S)"?] questioned Mo Fan

[Hurry up! We are going to be late.] I said before continuing my run

[Damn, I forgot!!] he said before running as well

{9 Hours Later}

[And that concludes today. Dismissed] Teacher

[Finally free] student 1

[Yeah!! That test was really hard! Hopefully I passed the test and get a spot in the magic academy!] student 2

'Where is Mo Fan when you need him?' I questioned while looking around. He was waiting at the gate

[Knew you wouldn't leave me. Let's go!] I said before walking off with him. I told Mo Jiaxing not to come to school today to pick us up.

[So, how do you think you did?] I questioned

[I'd say I got 70-80% correct. How 'bout you?] he questioned

[Full marks.] I answered

[What makes you so confident?] he questioned

[I researched every single question and since I have a good memory, I memorised all the correct answers. Let's make a bet. If I get full marks, then you'll have to run around the school saying "I'm a failure of science" but if I don't get full marks, Ill pay you 10,000 RMB.] I said

[Hmmmm.. no. I Refuse!!! Whatever you are confident in, would always happen. How about this. If you get full marks, I get 10,000 RMB and if you don't, Ill go through the entire school and yell "I'm a failure of science". How about that, smart guy?] he questioned

[Your on!!] I answered back while thinking with a very sinister smile

'Fool!! I purposely got one answer wrong so this would happen!! Hahahaha!!' I thought silently

[Make sure not to forget.. okay?] I said

[Wha-What do you mean?] he questioned with slight sweat

[I Purposely got one answer wrong so I could reverse your logic, making you have to scream "I'm a failure of science" in the whole school!! But that isn't all! I know for a fact that you got 78% correct, so what I did is I made my correct answer 79%!!! So in conclusion, Not only do you have to scream "I'm a failure of Science" in front of the whole school, you have to suffer a defeat towards Xin Xia and Mo Jiaxing AND ME!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!] I said

[What!!!]

[Just kidding. You don't have to do the bet. But everything I said is going to be true.] I said back while thinking of what I'm gonna do at my home

[Hey, lets watch some Flixnet when we get back. 'Kay?] I questioned

[*Sigh*, fine. But I wanna pick the show.] he said

[Nope. It's my week, so I get to decide.] I said

[Fine. What are we going to watch?] he said

[A "funny" video. I found it recently. It got me laughing so much. I was literally wheezing and crying.

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCvj_16EfSk [Got me really laughing, just wanna share it, ya know? Great guy.])

And so, 3 days pass. It was Monday, and we both had a notification of passing. So, we were gonna attend.

[This time, are you nervous?] I questioned Mo Fan

[N- *Hiccup* No.] he said while Hiccuping

[Something wrong? Did you laugh too much or something?] I questioned

[I was watching that one video since waking up. I just couldn't stop but laugh the whole time. I mean, they were literally ~Sensor~ and like, they ~Sensor~...] he said

[Yeah, that was a mind boggler. Seriously, that part when ~Sensor~...] I replied

[Anyways, what element do you think I will get?] he questioned

[Lightning. Either that or fire.] I said

[Why so much trust?] he questioned

[Just a hunch. What about me? What elements do you think Ill get?] I said

[Well, your not the type to run, block or help. More like the calculative type. So you might get something like the Dark Element. Or you might get some other element. I mean, what is the basis of getting an element?] he questioned

[I have a hint, but I'm not gonna tell you.] I said

[Really? Then what element do you think you'll get?] he said

[Lightning, Space or Chaos. Anyways, I'm not gonna tell you more, so don't pry on my life.] I said

[Fine fine.] he said

[Mo Fan!! Yami!! Good to see you here!] said a boy. His name was Zhang Xiaohou. He was a good friend of Mo Fan during the first and second season of the story. He ends up going to the military in around where season 5 or 6 should be. There was never a season 5 or 6, but it should be there if there was one.

'Now, since these 3 months have passed, Ive been able to level up my elements a little. The soul element is an element that is able to modify the soul, and since the elements reside in the soul, the soul element can add elements to a person, so that's exactly what I'm gonna do. Alfred said that with the current magic crystal in the anime, Ill only be able to get 3 elements instead of 2 because of the lack of quality. At mid tier, ill be able to unlock 4, high tier 5, super tier 6 and the last 2 at forbidden. The elements imma get are Lightning, Chaos and space. Lightning for power, chaos for making my lightning more powerful and space in case I'm in danger so I can teleport away. There's another reason I got soul magic. Namely, the ability to heal the soul.

The demon element turns the soul element into pure energy and uses it, so after the demon transformation is finished, one cant simply recover it, leading most of them to die. With the soul element, I can heal my soul, regaining my power instead of losing it. It will then adapt to my demon element and eventually, I can use the demon element to bring in the surrounding energy particles and add it to my own, and when I deactivate it, it would all merge and form a stronger level of the element. So far, I've been able to merge all the 7 stardust, resulting in 1 star path. I need to make 49 or these and connect them to make it to mid-tier. I can use the soul element a little. As of now, I've done 2 of these, which is enough for me to awaken a third element of my choosing.

The demon element isn't like a levelling type system. It simply needs to be used to upgrade. And since I haven't gotten my soul recovery yet, I'm not gonna risk losing my hard work. Lastly, my summon element. Ive also gotten it to 2 star paths, but there is still a ways to go. I don't think I can use it anytime soon. It's not very good as of now, so ill ignore it. Hopefully the soul element works. Alfred, can you do something so that it shows a different element instead of the element I'm actually gonna get?' I thought

[Easy peasy. What do you want it to show?] he questioned

'Fire. This way, I can also cultivate my Fire Origin. Underneath this disguise, ill really have a total of 6 elements. 7 counting Fire Origin. Much better than 2, am I right?' I questioned, expecting no answer

[Yep.] said Alfred

'Your not supposed to answer. Anyways, talk to you later.' I said while walking into class. Because I manipulated my score, I'm actually sitting second-last. I lied about the 79%. I just did enough to get the second last. And thanks to plot armour, Mo Fan got last. So alls good ends good.

'Now, let the awakening start!'
