Chapter 33 - tournament 2

The second round for the enchanters had no surprises as well, they had to create a formation using the same type and level of runes, the winner would be determined by whose formation was more effective.

Atoris obviously took first place, second place was to Fiona, she was a 50 something year old woman however with the lifespan of an acolyte she looked like she was in her early 20s.

Normally going into a new realm will only make you look slightly younger. As a 50 year old she would've looked to be about 30 or 40 but ever since her husband left her for a younger woman she had been obsessed with looking younger.

She was from the first village to migrate here after them, apparently she used to cover herself with cheap makeup to make herself look young and beautiful again. That had ruined her skin.

She looked happy now though. The third place was a gun called Sid, Sid was a really young man, he was 22 years old but his talent with runes was really high, his problem was he liked women a lot so that distract him from studying.

They've had a lot of fight with Atoris about this. Even his mother had tried to talk sense to him and ironically his mother is Fiona. There were rumours she only entered the competition to prove she can beat her son even though he's more talented than her.

He had a dissatisfied look while glancing at his mother who looked about the same age as him. You really Petty you know that? Fabro heard him whisper to his mother, she just giggled, and you lazy, she said.

The fourth person was an old man 70 years old called old man Maah, although he looked to be about 50, it is said he was a maths teacher in his village. The man had a kind smile, he reminded Fabro of his own grandfather.

The fifth was actually Melissa, she was not only a battle mage but also an enchanter. She had beaming smile as she waved her hand.

Their competition was over. What surprised him though was the winner of the Alchemy competition. A top 5 was chosen there as well. An actually took first position.

Fabro did not even know An was an alchemist. He looked as Annie and she looked as surprised as she was. An was looking at him with a proud grin.

From the first round a day before only 8 alchemist were left. On the finals they had to make a healt potion. It sounds simple but they were given more herbs than they need while some of the ones they needed were not there.

They had to find substitute for the mission herbs and whoever made the best healing potion would win. This not only tested their concocting ability but also their knowledge of herbs as well as their ability to adapt to situations.

It was a grueling battle that left them sweating. An had worn in the end but the second position was really close to her. The woman at the second position was a green heard wood mage.

Her name was Ferlicia, it was believed she had elven blood in her. She was tall and had green eyes, she was really beautiful with slightly longer than ears than most

On third was a man can Han, he slightly had features from the eastern islands of the human domain, with slanted eyes, his hair was pure black and silk.

Fourth was a woman called Sister. She was dressed as nun, he did not know her name or age just that she was sister. She always had a smile on her face and she seemed to hit it off with Luke.

It was said she moved into one of the villages 3 years ago, a few months before Fabros village moved here. She was some sort of healer there, she had knowledge on herbs and medicine.

The fifth place was taken by a man called Raid. He looked like a woman, he had a really pretty face and obnoxious smile. It was like he was looking down on everybody but that was not the case.

He was just terrible at expression himself. That obnoxious condescending look was just him trying to look friendly. Fabro had had a talk with the guy in a bar.

Actually he was from Fabros village, he was older than Fabro and because of him inability to socialize he had a hard time making friends, the only friend he had was An.

The way he said her name though gave him creeps, he was like Ohhh An, sweet sweet An with more enthusiasm than necessary, from that day he chose to stay away from that guy.

Even right now he was giving her a very creepy look, he signalled her. She turned and looked at the guy, she smiled and waved her hand at him.

The guy flinched and looked away coldly. An had a disappointed look and sighed. Does she like him too? He wondered. After the announcement of the winners of the alchemy potion of the tournament people went to their homes, well some of them.

The combat potion will begin tomorrow, today they were going to have fun, it was a festive atmosphere. Snow falling and melting due to the heaters, stalls with beast meat lined the street.

There were all types of games to play. Fabro wondered if he could create a videogame, it would probably take this place by storm. The people here seemed to be lacking in entertainment.

As he was walking he saw the guy Raid hiding in a corner peeking at something or someone. He had an idea who it was, he went towards him. Rais saw him and hid behind the corner.

I already saw you man just come out. He peeked his head, can I help you? Well you can start by not stalking my sister. I have no idea what you speak off.

Come on man, just confess to her. Again, u have no idea what you speak of. She likes you too you know? REALLY? huh, got you so you do like her? I have no idea where you got that from sir now If you'll excuse me, he said as he left. Weird guy, thought Fabro
