10 The Great Royal Academy Part 2 Aegiri’s story

The principal of the Great Royal Academy was Aegiri's personal teacher: teacher Rodse.

Rodse was stunned with the sight of Aegiri but he quickly returned his composure "That girl is my student, but she arrived late to your class. No matter her honesty, I know that you will punish her. May I know the punishment" he asked with a calm voice and teacher Herman looked at him with a cold face "You are right. The punish will be that she is forbidden to enter my class" Aegiri nearly faint of the shock. She didn't know how severe was this teacher but after listening those words she felt like something inside her was growing with the reactions of her emotions. However, she noticed that teacher Herman was in his right to choose the punishment, so she calmed herself and contained the tears that were threatening to fall "I understand. Well, leave her here and returned to your class" the principal said, and teacher Herman left. Aegiri started to cry. She knew what means to be forbidden to enter her ex-class. She cried for two hours. "Aegiri, did you learn something in the event that just happened two hours before?" Teacher Rodse asked her after she calm. Aegiri nodded affirmatively while wiping out her tears from her face "That's good! Now that you don't have a class to attend and it is almost time for lunch. Let's eat lunch together" Aegiri followed her teacher to the restaurant.

They took 5 minutes to arrive to the restaurant.

Aegiri was confused, she knew the time that takes to arrive from her ex-classroom was 5 minutes, so what in the world just happen for them to take 5 minutes when the principal's office was farer than the classroom. Teacher Rodse turned his gaze and smiled "You are asking yourself what happen right now for us to arrive quickly to the restaurant, right? The reason is that I used space magic" he explained while they were entering the restaurant.

It was the first time that Aegiri saw many people around twenty-five years and more, but she was sure that there was any single student at this hour. It was 10:20 am and lunch time was at 10:30 am "Teacher, who are these people?" Rodse looked around and his smiling face turned serious "No matter what Aegiri, try to not to approach to those people. They are soldiers from the royal army and magician, but every one that is below thirty are rookies" Aegiri didn't understand what was happening and what was her teacher's intention for telling her those words but she nodded affirmatively. While they were eating three middle-age soldiers, five twenty-five or so rookie soldiers and two magician, a man and a woman, approached "Principal Rodse, I have to ask you some questions" one of the middle-age soldier said, then a woman got near Aegiri "Little girl, you should go to another table while we ask the principal some questions..." "She will stay by my side while you do the things you came for!" With words filled with authority, Principal Rodse sentenced. The female magician froze with the words "If you want to let her listen everything it is not our problem" the male magician said. The eight soldiers were silent, and then, the one who spoke first continued "Right, the questions are simple, have you been in contact with someone called 'Elder Salgot'? And, do you know what was carrying in his arms after he left the academy?" The moment Principal Rodse heats Salgot's name he froze and murmur some words and Aegiri noticed that she could not listen or talk a word, but the soldiers and magicians didn't notice the spell that Rodse used to seal Aegiri's voice and hearing "The last time that I had contact with him was the same time he left the academy, and about what was carrying in his arms I don't have any idea of what was" Rodse's cold face and words turned cold the ambient and the table was getting frozen "Principal! Please calm yourself!" "Teacher Rodse, you are scaring me" everyone looked at where the voice came from, it seems that all of them forgot about Aegiri. She was scared. Rodse looked at Aegiri and he saw how she was trying to stop her tears for falling so his gaze turned soft. The soldiers got stunned after seen that change of expression in Rodse's face "I apologize for my conduct. But that is my answer to your questions" he bowed his head and then he gave a smile to Aegiri "Th-thanks for your cooperation principal Rodse" the soldiers and magicians turned around and left. After some seconds they left, Rodse wanted to release Aegiri's seal but he remembered that she talked, so he checked the seal and he noticed that it was broke 'So that's the reason she heard my voice tone and could talk' he thought, he stood up "We are returning to my office" Aegiri nodded and left behind her teacher.

It was 10:30, lunch's time.

Diara ran to look for Aegiri with Sert, Dert and Pardy, but their attempts were futile. They went to the restaurant and saw that some soldiers and magicians were coming out with faces full of anxiety "...really that man is scaring..." "Captain Samthel, that man surely is lying" "Principal Rodse is the kind of mysterious people, you must not get him mad at you because maybe that would be the last time you would do something" Captain Samthel said with a grave voice. The four kids listened carefully the conversation "Principal Rodse... AH!" "What happened Diara?" Pardy asked with a worry voice "It is just that I recalled that Aegiri's teacher's name is 'Rodse', but that mean that academy's Principal is Aegiri's teacher" Diara sighed in relief, Sert, Dert and Pardy didn't understand why Diara was more relax but then Pardy connect the words she realized the reason so she relaxed herself. Only Sert and Dert didn't understand so Pardy explained them "If Principal Rodse is actually Aegiri's teacher, he would help her for not getting expelled" Dert and Sert understood, but Dert had some doubts "But he should be the same for everyone, maybe her punishment is just something little thanks for the principal..." he stopped his words at the middle while his eyes were looking to a particular point, everyone turned their heads and saw two people leaving the restaurant: Aegiri and teacher Rodse. "Aegiri!" Diara called out her, Aegiri and her teacher stopped. This gave Diara, Pardy, Sert and Dert the chance to approach Aegiri and the teacher that was next to her "What happened? What was your punishment? Would you leave the academy? Is Principal Rodse your teacher" their questions were like arrows of suffer hitting directly to her heart, her teacher just smile and Aegiri answered their questions with embarrassed "Teacher Herman took me to the principal's office, then he sentenced me to be forbidden to enter again to his class, I don't know if I would leave the academy, and Principal Rodse is my teacher and actually he is standing right by my side" she introduced her teacher to her friends, teacher Rodse looked at them "It's a pleasure to meet you but Aegiri and I must leave, and for you, you should eat something before returning to class. Oh! Before I forget, Diara and Pardy from now on you two are going to share room, for Dert and Sert the only change is that Pardy is not any longer sharing room with you" Diara and Pardy got excited after hearing the news "Did you listen Aegiri? We are going to share room with Pardy..." "Miss Diara, I may inform you that Aegiri is going to leave with me now and because that she is not attending anymore her group class so her schedule will be different" the emotion got gloomy. Aegiri and the others were silent and dumbfounded "But that means that we are not going to see again" everyone said with sadness "That's indeed true, but there is a special reason that made me decide this. About the reason, I will talk with Aegiri. Everything has been said. Aegiri, let's go!" Rodse turned around and left. Aegiri looked at he friends "We will see again, it is promise" with tears in her eyes, she said good bye to her friends and left behind her teacher. Diara, Pardy, Sert and Dert said in unison "We are going to see you again, no matter the time it takes us" "Remember Aegiri is a promise" Diara said at the end.

Aegiri and her teacher returned to the principal's office "Aegiri, the reason that made me decide to take you with me is about your fifth kind of magic" Aegiri nodded and looked at her teacher with her red eyes with tears (she already calmed herself) "Listen carefully, you must be far from any soldier and royal magician you see, they are looking for my teacher Salgot and the baby he took with him. The Royal Family knows that he went to the direction where you come from, so they would suspect from you. I have contacted with Elder Salgot not long ago, well, to be precise he contacted me and told that you were coming to the academy, he asked for my help to rise you and teach you how to be a great magician and to teach to control your powers, specially the fifth one and the best way is to separate from other people. Don't worry about your communication with your friends, you would have the chance to hang out with them three days per month, and the rest of it you will concentrate in your studies" teacher Rodse looked at her with a serious look, but he noticed the sadness in Aegiri's eyes so he hugged her "Remember that I'm here for you, I will not let anyone to harm you".

Aegiri cried.

She didn't understand why her teacher was like this, she wanted to play with her friends but she knew that her actions would affect Brother Salgot and Ethon. Rodse hugged her until she felt asleep and then took her to his residence.
