Chapter 218 218 Perfection

'This is it...this is totally correct' Ray smiled as he took the drawing of his magic circle and compared it to Selena's drawing, they were few mistakes but he was doing better.

"Wake up sleepyhead..." Selena shouted after tapping Ray countless times.

"I said stand up..." Selena shouted as she smacked Ray's head.

Ray raised his head up with his eyes still closed, and he looked around, he was still asleep so he didn't know what was going on, Ray placed his head back on the table but Selena slapped him hard.

Ray's eyes sprang open and he turned them towards Selena, he glared at him with bloodshot sleepy eyes, she couldn't blame him for feeling sleepy apparently he was up all night.

Papers with drawings of magic circles were scattered all over the ground as Ray tried to recreate Selena's drawing, she woke up early and saw the drawing on the ground.

Nothing gives a teacher more joy than to see a student trying to prove himself, she knew Ray was happy to learn magic, he wanted to learn magic then why didn't he attend the magic academy, that was a question Selena couldn't figure out.

"Wake up, it's morning already" Selena sneered.

Best

"I'm sorry... I'll be up in 5 minutes, just give me five minutes," Ray said in his sleepy voice.

Ray placed his head back on the table and slowly he felt himself being lifted from the ground, of course he didn't care because he was sleepy.

*Boom*

Ray's eyes opened finally as his back landed on the wooden hard floor of the room, Selena used a spell to lift him and slam him onto the ground.

Ray stretched and yawned weakly, his eyes still haven't had enough, he slumped to the ground and rested his back on the wall.

"Morning training" Ray shouted and stood on his feet.

"Morning training..." Selena repeated.

"Oh...we are not at the academy, I thought I was late for morning training, wait... I'm late for morning training" Ray shouted.

"You are not at the academy, and if you cared so much about the morning training why didn't you wake up early?"

"I didn't hear the sounds of pots that's why, normally every morning pots are banged together to wake all the students up so we are used to the sound" Ray explained.

"...Oh that's why. Last night you were studying the magic circle, I thought you wanted to wait"

"I couldn't sleep for some reason so I tried to learn the spell, I need to learn a powerful spell like Elemental domain"

Selena chuckled softly, "Don't be in a rush, after learning a spell you have to perfect it and you haven't perfected any of your spells"

"But I can cast them whenever I want and I can use them effectively, what's there to perfect again," Ray said.

"Perfection doesn't mean your ability to cast the spell, perfection means taking the spell to its strongest form, for example, your [Dark Binds] how many people can you trap at once?"

"I don't know, I've only used it to trap two people at most"

"When the golems attacked back at the dungeon, my clone used the [Dark Binds] to trap 100 golems at once and kill them without breaking a sweat, can you do that with yours?"

"No" Ray looked down as he spoke.

"We should get going, the knights may be worried," Selena said and walked towards the door.

Ray quickly took the magic circle drawn by Selena and followed her, he stood after seeing the mess he made on the ground, but that wasn't his concern. He walked towards the table and opened his [Void], he placed ten pieces of paper along with the ink and feather used in writing.

'No one is going to find out, there are no cameras in this world' Ray chuckled as he thought of cameras, it was a shame he couldn't bring anything from his former world over.

"Now that I think about it, would the guns In my world be able to defeat magic" Ray pondered as he left the room.

"Good morning" the receptionist greeted Selena as she walked by.

Luckily they didn't see the weird couple they met last night, the both of them exited the inn and walked towards the academy.

"How are your preparations for the tournament? It's in a few days"

"I'm not participating, orders from the senior knights," Ray said with his voice down.

"You don't sound happy about that, why were you disqualified?"

"I wasn't disqualified...my hands were broken when...you already know about that, so the knights said I couldn't participate" Ray spoke In a low voice.

"But your hands are fine now, when Kaan took your body, he could use your hands perfectly"

"Really...well he healed them, so they are fine now, but I still can't participate"

"He healed your hands...but they were fine before he took over your body, when you were fighting the stone golem at the entrance of the dungeon, your hands were fine"

"When I was fighting the golem, I was also battling with the pains in my hands, I train a lot lately so I'm used to the pain, but now I can't even feel anything," Ray said.

"Do you want me to talk to the knights for you, I can get you to participate" Selena said.

"You would do that, yes please...thank you" Ray shouted happily.

"Are you that excited to join, you can't beat the third-year students even if you qualify"

"That's why I'm excited, I want to know how well I can do against a powerful knight," Ray said happily.

"If you want to know how well you can do, you should challenge one of the knights around, not a student" Selena spoke and looked at Ray.

Ray chuckled slightly then he saw the look on Selena's face meaning she was serious, "I can't fight a knight, do you want to get me killed" Ray pleaded.
