After yesterday's early encounter with Ariel, and learning things about Nagi that were never mentioned in the novel, my day started with...
"Who among you can weave magic?" Medley asked.
Almost everyone in the classroom raised their hand.
Almost everyone except me.
My day began with humiliation.....
Medley nodded, then his gaze drifted across the room until it settled on me. His eyes lingered for a moment before he spoke again.
"Who among you can transmute your thrum?"
Once again, nearly every hand went up.
Medley's stare sharpened.
I remained silent and still did not raise my hand.
What does this old man even want from me? Does he not realize this is basically a public execution by humiliation?
He asked another question.
"And who among you has mastered the external release of thrum?"
A few students murmured among themselves, confused as to why Professor Medley was asking something so basic.
Damn it.
I snapped my pen in half.
