Fighting a Dark Lord Candidate

Merlin was surprised at suddenly going into a fight from someone he's never met yet. "H-hey, what gives? We just met and-" he was interrupted by dodging swings and kicks from the boy. But he was stopped by a teacher who dressed like a butler. "Young Zelgram, calm yourself and give your name." he said. But Merlin just walked away, not caring at all. Zelgram grabbed his shoulder, but Merlin didn't pay him any mind and went back in line, which made Zelgram even more angry for being ignored. Morgan went up and slapped Zelgram in the face, and then hit him in the gut. "Don't act all tough and then bully the new kid. You have no right to act all high and mighty." she said. Zelgram got back up and punched her right in the nose, and she flew into the wall. The teacher was about to grab him, but Merlin released his energy, which caused the windows to crack due to his anger. "Get in that ring. Right now." he said, and stepped into the ring. Zelgram went into the ring and took off his shirt before going into a boxing stance and having his eyes closed. Zelgram went into the ring too, with a boxing stance and a sharp look in his eyes. After 2.2 seconds, they both just started fighting each other, neither one getting the advantage over the other. Eventually Merlin landed a punch on Zelgram's side near his ribs, then another at his stomach, using the force to keep up the combo to his face, chest, and neck. All the while his eyes were shut, and eventually knocked him out of the ring much to everyone's surprise and Zelgram's annoyance. "Never touch my friend again or I'll beat you into a shit stain!" Merlin said out loud as he opened his eyes to show they flashed a different color for a split second. Zelgram's nails grew out in anger but the teacher gave him a glare that made him stop, and had Merlin sit out the rest of the class for the disruption. Morgan had already gotten up and saw the whole fight pan out, and felt bad that he was going to get in trouble on his second day of school over someone like Zelgram, so she went to talk to him and calm him down about it and said she'd explain everything and see if she can get him off the hook.

Later on in the say Zelgram was in Merlin's class and paired with him, however all he did was glare angrily while making a summoning sigil. Merlin paid him no attention again, which made Zelgram blurt out. "Alright you prism haired ass, what's your deal huh? You do know I'm a dark lord candidate right? I have more power in my hand that I could level this school and rebuild it in the span of 30 seconds. So what-" he was cut off with Merlin using a silencing spell. "Listen. I don't care about that. In case you haven't noticed, I don't know about this world. I'm reincarnated. So maybe instead of picking on someone who's spend 2 days in this world and aged up to a 5 year old, you can show some real respect and give me a reason to respect you other than your stupid title. Dark lords, gods, all the same. Get over yourself already." he said calmly. Everyone was silent, their faces showing complete shock and surprise. Zelgram didn't show anger anymore, he was completely blown away from Merlin's words. Even the teacher stopped his explanation from that. Zelgram was at a loss for words, completely stunned, all he could do was think of the words reverb in his head at a rapid speed. The principal walked into the room, surprising everyone. "Merlin, can you please come with me with Zelgram?" he asked. Merlin went with no hesitation, but Zelgram took a few seconds to register the words before walking out of the class. Merlin's parents were there, and not pleased at all, which made Merlin look down in shame for giving into his anger. Zelgram's father was there, with a sort of demonic lion like face, a full suit and tie, and a sort of half cape on his left shoulder. "Now, I've heard things from Morgan's point of view, but I want to hear Zelgram's-" the principal was cut off by Zelgram's father. "Inexcusable. This scum touches my heir with no provocation? He will learn as he's reduced to dust." he said preparing a fire spell. But Zelgram stopped him. "No dad. It wasn't his fault, I did it. I hit Morgan and he was just defending her. I was acting spoiled as usual and he kicked my ass into the mat. I'm so sorry." he said while looking like he saw a ghost. Everyone was surprised that he actually admitted to it so easily, and Zelgram apologized to Merlin feeling like he was completely overcome with the feeling of defeat. Merlin blushed a little but accepted his apology. Zelgram's father was surprised at his son's behavior, not knowing what to say at all and just stood there in silence. "I guess...that's all then. I apologize as well mister and miss Pyrite. We shall...take our leave." he said as he left with Zelgram. Merlin and his parents went home, and Merlin didn't say a word until his father asked him something. "So..this fight. How fun was it? Did you manage to get in a good shot on his ribs?" he asked before getting slapped. His mom didn't like to encourage that sort of behavior at all. "Son, we...we don't approve of you fighting someone like that out of anger, however we are proud you defended someone. Just try to be more calm and use other ways next time. So...I suppose..." she was trying to find a certain punishment that was fitting, but technically Merlin wasn't in the wrong, minus the cursing, so all she could think of was getting the second muffin that she was planning on making for the night, which made Merlin giggle a little bit.

After he finished dinner, Merlin returned to his room to start reading some more. He found a section in his book about Sentient Grimoires and Magyk Zones, which he looked more into. He then realized that he had a computer in his room that wasn't there before. "Huh. I didn't know technology existed here. I guess technology is multiversal huh?" he said to himself as he researched. He found out that Sentient Grimoires are basically condensed clumps of information turned into a physical embodiment of mystic power, and doesn't always appear in book form. It could be clothing, a weapon, or even a body part. And Magyk Zones were created by a powerful Adeptus Wizard named Magyk Crimzo, and it amplified powers tenfold, however the process took time to master, and even then the strength of one field could overtake another. It was mimicked from the Psy, who were basically Psychics that used a quantum field in order to manifest their power and handle the incredible information coming from the Quantum Mind, which is similar to the Soul Realm for magicians. The more he looked, the more interested he became to learn more about his new life. He then saw Morgan was watching him from his window. "Morgan, you doing okay?" Merlin asked. Morgan said that she was fine, and led him to someplace else, where a bunch of kids were playing. "Uh, what's all this? Also, these kids look older than me, I can't even reach the monkey bars." Merlin said, but she brought him to four people. One was Zelgram, but in just pajama shorts and a tank top. Another was a girl with two vines wrapped around her hair, and is in a night gown and has an eye patch covering her right eye. Then there's another girl dressed like a vampire, cape included. The fourth was someone that Merlin slightly blushed at. He was a pudgy looking boy with blonde hair, and wearing pajama shorts and fingerless gloves. "Well Merlin, meet the crew. We're a crew now. Let's get along okay? The girls are named Rachel and Violet, and the guy is named Xavier. Now let's have ourselves some fun till we drop!" Morgan said as all of them played until they got tired, and went home to fall asleep.
