The Inheritance

Chapter Nine

Brian opens the door to reveal a large rectangular area with a plank flooring and two nets on opposite sides. Inside, are about ten females huddling in a group and a fairly tall, short haired brunette with startling blue eyes. Judging by the clothes she is wearing, she is our teacher for physical education. One thing that I also notice is that the females have basically the same outfit as us guys however the shorts are a bit tighter while ours are loose fitting.

After waiting for a few more minutes for those who are late to enter, the teacher introduces me to the rest of the class. Afterwards, we begin to do a few warm up exercises.

Once we are done we switch over to playing a game that is quite similar to lacrosse except magic is used to catch and throw the ball instead of a stick. Of course, since I do not have a focus yet, I have to rely on my physical abilities to play the game. The result is very interesting as most of the time I get close to grabbing the ball, someone would change its trajectory with magic. Heck, at one point people stopped playing the game just to watch me and my attempts at catching the ball.

Just as I start to really get into the game however, the teacher stops the class so that we can go and change clothes. The teacher must have a really good sense of time for by the time we guys finish changing, the bell signalling the end of first period goes off.

After taking out everything that I need from the locker, Brian and I head on out from the building. Almost immediately we spot Lily walking around however she appears to be talking to someone.

The person that Lily is talking to is an extremely attractive elf that has long flowing red hair which ends somewhere around her lower back. Even with the school uniform I can tell that she has an hourglass figure and assets that would capture the vision of every male if she were to go to a bar. She has the body that every woman probably wished they had and yet, she seems to ooze a quality that only Lily, Diana, Cecilia and Brian seem to carry.

Not wanting to interrupt, Brian and I head over to a nearby table to relax ourselves as we wait for second period to start. Eventually people start to enter the buildings that hold their classes. Taking it as a sign that second period is going to start soon, we head towards our next class.

As we enter our classroom, I am a little surprised to see that the person teaching Magical Theory is Diana. Then again, it makes sense since she was the one that was interested about how my cell phone worked. Brian goes off to his seat while I wait at the front of the room waiting for everyone else to be seated.

Once everyone is seated Diana steps forward and says, “As many of you may have realized, we have a new student in the class. His name is Brandon Chen and due to… certain circumstances he has enrolled in the Academy of Magic despite school starting a week ago.”

A quick look over at who is in the class lets me know that I have already shared a class with most of them. The few that I did not have classes with however gives a quick wave. One thing that I notice that all of the females have in common, except for a few, is a hungry glint in their eyes.

“So… Brandon, feel free to sit at any empty seat,” says Diana.

A quick glance at Brandon lets me know that both seats on either side of him are taken, which means that I will be a sheep amongst wolves so to speak. With a small sigh, I head to the closest empty seat located in between two females. After sitting down I quickly pull out my roll of parchment, a fountain pen and the bottle of ink, ready to take down a note at a moment’s notice.

Throughout the entire lesson I would get distracted every now and then by someone sending me a note or trying to start a conversation in an attempt to flirt with me. Each time someone tries to do one of these things, I am forced to reply back in the most polite way possible while hinting that I am not currently interested in being social.
