New Freshmen At Summoner High 23 Team Practice

Kaden stood calm with his grimoire open. A green glow enveloped the book as Kaden yelled out "ensnare!". Within three seconds roots shot out in front of the boy's feet and race to his target. A simple straw human-shaped dummy, one of the common grade practice targets the school provided. As the roots came close to the dummy they turn into vines that sprouted lushes leaves. A second later the vines tightly wrap themselves around the target. They covered it from head to toe.

"Thorns and brambles" Kaden commanded. Instantly the vines shot out thin red spikes that slightly curved in different directions. Spiky pods soon grew sticking to the target and dropping to the ground. Menacing was all Kaden could think as he watched the spell take effect.

At the moment those were the only two attacks in his a.r.s.enal. He could also use a spell that created a healing herb that people could ingest. It would provide a light cure to comment ailment, ie head cold, the flu, and other internal sicknesses.

Kaden could not summon his hero star yet. She simply refused to listen to his call. His other summons that was kept in a card had very little use in combat. It was currently deployed back at the penthouse. The girl we're instantly impressed with it. They were happy with the things manners and the ability to do ch.o.r.es. The boys went nuts over it when they saw that it was an android. They laugh their b.u.t.ts off at the lack of its lethal capabilities.

Today practice was all about improving each of their mana reserves as well as getting used to using spells on a stationary target. Jessica lectured for nonstop for thirty minutes. She also demonstrated her array of lethal spells.

Jessica gave each team member individual guidance on how to best use their unique spells and skills. Spells cost mana or internal energy. The more one empties their bodies of it the more they could hold when it was refilled. Though everybody has a limit to the amount of growth.

The kids all were at the optimum age to grow their mana pools. Skills, on the other hand, exerted physical strength and endurance to using up their stamina or external energy.

Jessica explained that both external and internal energy grown together in balance was the proper way to train. This would allow them to be much more powerful than the average summoner. As for summons, she told them it was best to build up their mana reserves first.

A grimoire summons was different than the card summons. It took mana lots of mana to maintain the link which allowed for the creature to remain manifested in the real world.

Card summons was like a cheat. The Summoner could use a mana crystal in place of using their mana for a short while. The crystal quality determined the duration of the summons. With the use of an energy transfer device, the creature could be summoned indefinitely. The downside to using the card was the creature could not grow in strength nor would it learn any of its potential spells or skills. The creature would be stuck with its starting skill and spell sets.

Clogsworth was at the maximum quality a card could support. This was due to its support type of nature. But if the butler was an attack-type creature then Kaden would have been forced to use up a page in his book for it.

Just like Hinata's Ice Phoenix. The bird was too strong to contain it in a card. The pegasus was also at the top limit of what the card could contain. Hinata would have to put the flying horse in her book if she wants it to grow into a stronger steed.

After Mr. Toons their teacher found out Hinata had contracted the bird he told her to keep the horse in its card state till she had grown stronger. He did not want her or any of his students to overburden themselves training more than one book summons at a time. They were after all young and inexperienced kids. Mental health played a big part in training with contracted creatures. Mr. Toons might be a bit weird but he cared greatly for each of his charges.

"Training with your newly contracted summons can be dangerous," Jessica said as she adjusted her fake gla.s.ses. "At least one-third of all freshmen will visit the nurse's station because of injuries. At least twice before years end." She pauses before continuing. "It's time to wrap things up here as dinner should be ready." She finishes and walked off the stage she was standing on.

"Jessie you forgot to turn off the P.A. system," Ash yelled out as she put her book away. She like the rest of the group was busy wiping themselves down with a towel. The practice period was grueling and they all wanted to hit the showers before having dinner. Except for Bee and Jessica as they both mostly just watch the others exercise.

Elsewhere far away from where the kids were training, a tall man stood in the front of a large bay window. At his back was to a group of old men. The wrinkly skin each man's face held showed that these seven were ancient. The man by the window looked young other than a slight graying of his hair. He was wide of should and handsome. The man's raven hair was trimmed short and his navy blue suit was made from the highest quality.

As the tall man stared down to the garden below his eyes were fixated on a lady who was sitting in a wheelchair. He asked, "When will Elsa contact her team?". " My lord, we estimate no later than two more days. It seems the other representatives will also arrive around the same time. The exception binding Miss Rockhurst as she had already checked in and made contact." one of the fossils reported.

"My lord, rumors hold that the old witch is also on the move because some groups are targeting her boy and his friends. I like permission to send a team to hara.s.s her." ask a man who looked to be the oldest of the group. He truly was the oldest but also the weakest. The strength of his family and the fact he lived such a long life was what granted him his post. Else none of the other elders would be bothered with him.

"Tobias, why must you always try to curry favor by targeting that living catastrophe? Have we not suffered her wrath enough times already." said another elder. His strength was one of the strongest in the empire. Most time he would not bother to attend such a meeting. His favorite student and charge had been sent away so he found himself attending. "Also Adam did you have to send her to partic.i.p.ate. Elsa was doing just fine under my watch." He said with none of the respect the other had shown the tall man.

"Marcus, use some decorum his majesty name should not be used in such a manner." Tobias quickly said in retore to his most hated rival. A one-sided rivalry that had lasted the better part of a century. "Enough," Adam said as he then politely answered his old mentor question. "A great prize has been offered this time, Teacher. One that we as a universal whole can't miss out on." He looked back to Tobias with a stern look before adding "Even old feuds will have to wait."
