There was a story, way back before the Enchanix made, the world was sill plain and had nothing around when a mysterious woman come down, she was called as Mother. Mother was the one made the Enchanix using her powers as her creation.
Mother can see that the whole Enchanix was plain so she decided to design them with forest, animals, and rivers to look it nice.
Next, Mother than made 12 different families of species at her world so there will be more living on her own world.
Mother than creates Gemstones for the Enchanix, the one who protects the whole forest to keep the harmony safe and peace, Mother has two sons, Sephardic The God of Heaven and Soperton The God of Hell.
Everything was going smoothly, and everyone live in peace when all of a sudden...
Two brothers fought each other and they knew very well that this will make their Mother go mad to see them fighting. Soperton was always greedy, selfish, arrogant, and too much pride within inside him while Sephardic has always have a kind heart to anyone at Enchanix.
Mother gives them a task as her trial to see which of his sons has a right to be protector of the gemstone. In secretly, Mother saw how Soperton actions to the immortal, how he teach them some evil deeds that can lead to their consequences which Mother doesn't like it.
In other hand, Mother saw Sephardic how he treat the immortal as equal and cares of them and protect them under his care, he doesn't think of himself but them.
When it was time to choose who is her rightful protector, everything started to go bad....
"Why?! Why him?!" Mother choose Sephardic over him and this made Soperton go furious at his Mother. "I am your first born child!! You can't give him the position as protector of Gemstones to him!"
His words made Mother Disappointed at him, she couldn't believe that his older son think of that way and was hungry of power. "Soperton, you know I did this to our world, it's better if I gave the Gemstones to your brother."
Mother explains but Soperton never listened and grits his teeth "All you care about is only those useless and reckless immortal that you made, you never care about me!"
His words hurt him "That's not true, son, I love you both equally! You know that!" "Is that really you did?"
For the first time, The God of Heaven spoke with his mother with different tone, Sephardic look to his mother in cold way as if he hates her, but in reality, he did hate her.
And just like that... The world at Enchanix was exploded with battle and bloody war, many myths die because of it. Mother was in pain mix with anger as his son fight against her, she was mad and decided to end his two sons even it hurts her as she was their Mother.
The Enchanix was almost destroyed because of the battle between the Mother and his son, after 10 days battle, Mother was defeated, Soperton and Sephardic uses their strong power to lock her up, first, they put her sleep then chain her from the neck, legs, and arms and seal her.
Soperton thought it was over and his brother will help and give half of Sephardic's power to him, but he was wrong.
Soperton was planning to get rid of him however, Sephardic got to know his plan...
Sephardic use the gemstones against his brother Soperton to throw him at the pit of darkness to the underworld that no one knows where... After the war and Mother's losing at the battle and Soperton thrown to the darkness, Sephardic, The God of Heaven was the new ruler of the Enchanix. he calls the paradise as "Devyas" where the immortal souls going there after their death, just like Heaven from the moral world.

Waking up from my precious sleep just because of that damn school is tiring "Oh how I wish have a time travel watch to rewind the time" I sigh and drop my head at my table. It's Monday again like every young students like me as a routine.
"Sharmel, you're getting late for school! Get up there already and start changing!" Hearing my mom's words made my eye roll, I have no strength to get up, it's so hard when your a university student! with no other choice I got up to start to take care of myself.
The breakfast was ready to eat, dad and my brother already sat down eating their breakfast as mom was cooking fast. The towel sill covers my hair, I didn't bother to dry them since I went to breakfast to eat first.
"Hays Sharmel! Dry your hair!" I stop what I'm doing and didn't argue as I do what she said, while trying to dry my hair my older sister goes down "Mom, I'm going!" She said taking her lunch box, mom was about to stop her but my sister already left. Mom sigh in disappointment before she goes back to her work.
It's already 7:30 when I got to the school almost late, sitting to my seat, Keisha my best friend sat beside me "Sharmel, I have something to show you." Curious I smile and took a glance at her while taking my notes and pen out from my bag "really? show me" I said excitedly and Keisha shook her head "Not now, I will show it to you later" she whispers making sure that I'm only one to hear it.
School was already started and our first period has come, listening to the professor is tiring and I want to sleep but I couldn't. Mom will kill me if she finds out about this I grin to my thoughts and focus to the professor.
"So, have you guys always believe in supernatural creatures or dream to be in different world?" The professor suddenly ask us, confused someone raise their hand "What does the supernatural has to do with our lesson Mrs. Vergara?"
She wave her hand down to motion him to sat back down to his seat. Mrs. Vergara look each of us and adjust her eyeglass to her eye "Listen carefully children. This is out of the topic for our lesson today but since you're bored maybe this one will help you to make up listen to our lesson" everyone look at her as if they're interested to the story that Mrs. Vergara was about to tell.
Keisha and I glanced at each other and she shrug her shoulders, I look back to our professor taking out something from her bag a nd everyone include me gasp with surprise look.
What is that....?
It was a book, but it's not just ordinary book... The book glows and inside of it was like a ocean clear blue. It was a majestic book and I can't take off my eyes from it.
"Did you see that?" Keisha didn't reply but I saw the look on her face, she doesn't seem to look surprised but instead her face was like serious and... angry?
Ms. Vergara opens the book and it glows brighter "Woah magic! How did she do that?!" Everyone was impressed to the scene, the glow slowly stop and Ms. Vergara look at us before she look back to her book.
"After Soperton thrown out at the underworld darkness, The Hell was panicking because there is no ruler at Hell and the councilors are discussing who will be the new ruler"
As Ms. Vergara read the text of the book, I could imagine and play the scene inside my head...
.
.
.
"We should take this seriously! We need a ruler in hell!" The councilors are now arguing with the problems they have. "I will take his place as the ruler of the Hell" everyone look to see him everyone couldn't believe it at first but when he shows a papyri to them "because Sephardic said so"
Everyone don't want him as the ruler but no matter how much they dislike the idea of Sephardic, they have no choice but to accept him.
The young immortal man who choose to be the new ruler was Stephano, one of the trusted demon of Soperton. Stephano changed the word of "God" and name himself as King of Hell, the color symbol is Red and Black.
The Enchanix was changing since Sephardic was now the God of whole Enchanix world, he choose who will be the King and Queen, Sephardic chooses one of the Diwata to create her own kingdom.
Diwata is a feminine name of Filipino and Sanskrit origin that is sure to embrace baby's mythical side. Coming from the Sanskrit phrase Devata, it means "goddess." In Filipino mythology, diwatas were seen as supernatural protectors of the natural world.
Cassandra, the Diwata who was the first ruler of her own Kingdom. She named it as Zariya, Kingdom of all Diwatas and land of air, and the symbol color of them is color blue.
After the kingdom of Zariya was made it follows 3 more kingdom. Findara, Alynthi and Nethilors.
Kingdom of Findira is the land of fire, the King was Hathoria, the brother of Cassandra. Their color is similar to the hell but except, their color is Red.
Eleanor was the queen of Alynthi but she called herself as Mistress instead, it is a land of waters and their color is Green.
And lastly Rein, the King of Nethilors, the land of earth, their kingdom has similar to the Alynthi, their color is brown.
Next, we had the Seriaphim, they're closest to Sephardic, their job is watching, protecting, and guide us. The Capitol City of Enchanix is Verglas. Where all Angels stayed there and Councilor from the Devyas was also there. Sephardic made it for the Angels.
Sephardic also decided to add something like a school, similar to the mortal. Galdric, one of the councilors and has a talent to do things build a huge school that Sephardic ask him to do. And he called it as "Art of Academy" where all young immortal to be learn with their abilities and learning everything they know.
Art of Academy was the first and only school at Enchanix. The Academy has a list of students. The lightness student and darkness students.
The lightness students list are:
1. Angel
2. Diwata
3. Wizard
4. Werewolf
The Darkness students list are:
1. Demons
2. Vampire
3. Witch
4. Warlock
But then, a group of mortal get inside to the Enchanix, no one knows how they get inside, Galdric then decide as the creator of the Academy and The head of his own school. He then decided to add the students list and he call the mortal as "Unclaimed" which was the lower rank of the Academy.
It was against to what Sephardic told him, but Galdric doesn't have a choice as he has a good heart and accept the outsider to his academy.
And because of it, Sephardic punish him for his disobedient, his soul will not go to his place,but instead to go at the place where he throw his brother. He let Galdric stayed the mortal as his students, and after his painful death, his daughter was now the new head of the school.
And that's where the unclaimed started to treat unfairly as the new rules has said "As unclaimed, they have no stand against the immortal and the unclaimed should not treat like a immortal as these creature are powerless" The Unclaimed was rejected by all of immortal and no one make friends or get close to them as they're symbol of unlucky to their life.
Unclaimed's life continue to be like that until their getting older till their deaths. As they die, that's where they go back to their real world not alive but corpse of their old age.

Ms. Vergara close the book and the bell rang. Everyone whine to get her continue "It's enough for today fantasy. Everyone hurry and go to your next class" Ms. Vergara put the book back to her bag.
Fantasy topic is more interesting than hearing some of your lessons Ms. Vergara.
I was about to stand up when suddenly, a pain shoot right at my temple, it was throbbing painfully that I clutch my temple to my head "Ah!"
My cries were got attract by everyone "Sharmel?!" Keisha come to me with concern on her voice, I can tell she look worried at me without looking to her.
"It.... Argh...! Hurts!" I shut my eyes tightly while Keisha help me sit back down, I slowly open my eyes only half and saw Ms. Vergara's face, she look at me serious. Keisha look at her as well, I don't know if I saw was real or is it because the pain I feel but I saw how she look at Ms. Vergara.
After few minutes the pain has gone, sweat were now at my forehead and I could also feel the sweat at my back. "Are you okay now? How do you feel?" "I'm alright... " it was a lie of course but I couldn't tell her the truth.
"Come on, let's get out of here" Keisha help me stand up and making sure to support me all the way.
Before we go to our next class, Keisha stops and look around to make sure we're alone "Is something matter?" Keisha then pull me to the gym, no one was there, she didn't reply to me, she stop and took something from her bag.
I was surprised to what she takes out.
It was a key, but not just any key "I... Wow, I don't know what to say... " I was surprise that I shutter.
It shape like a heart, I could see a clear glass and inside of it is a glow blue. Keisha was sill frowning "Can I hold it?" Keisha give me the key.
It was lightly heavily "where did you buy this? It looks so real!" I was amazed carefully examined the key. "Keep the key" hearing her hoarse voice and look back at her.
"Why?" I ask her and she just shook her head and look away, something was wrong at her but I didn't time to ask because a junior saw us and telling to go back to our class.
It was nighttime and I do homework as always. After, I go to my bed to sleep, I couldn't stop thinking to what Ms. Vergara telling us a story. In deep thoughts, a small glow come from my bag, my room was already dark since I turn off the lights. Getting up to see where the glow coming from, I took rummaging the things inside my bag to see the key.
What in the world? I must be imaging some things, the glow stops as soon as my hand was about to reach for it and mom's voice calls out for me. I sigh and put my bag away and get down.
In next morning Keisha is sill haven't arrived yet and it's almost 8am. Is she going to be absent today? I was getting worried because Keisha never absent any like since first quarter til the fourth quarter.
And now mix emotions with worried and curiously, soon our professor has arrived and no sign of Keisha going to the university.
It was almost night when our class was already dismissed, I wanted to pay a visit to Keisha but I don't want to disturb her so I went straight home by walking.
Going home alone is pretty scary even it's morning, hell you don't even know if someone tries to kidnap you.
I noticed something not far away, there was a mysterious cloak watching me I stopped. What the hell? I must imagine it again!
I run my eyes and look again to see the black cloak was sill there, I couldn't see the face because inside of it is dark as if it has no face. Okay, things have been so crazy now!
I wanted to turn around and run away but something inside me that I should take a look and follow. I know it's reckless, and parents always told their children to run away from strangers. But...
The black cloak was sill there, waiting for me to follow. Without thinking, I walked to the black cloak and when I was getting closer, it suddenly turned around and leave to the forest. Is following good idea?
"Follow.... Follow"
I turn around sharply but I was the only one standing.
"Follow... Follow... "
A whisper from my ear, it was a harsh voice and it send shivers from my spine. I continue to follow the black cloak to the forest.
I don't know how far I walk to the forest, only I can see is tress everywhere and a mysterious black cloak, suddenly, it stop and turn around at me. I recoil and taking a step back and just like that, it disappear in front of me.
My eyes widened what the... I turn around and the black cloak wasn't there anymore! And I realized that now I am lost at the forest.
god damnit! Now what?! Anxiety was inside me trying to figure out how to get out from the forest when my bag starts to glow inside.
I open the bag and rummage inside to see the key was glowing. "Am I dreaming?" I reach out for it and take it out, they key was sill glowing at my hand and it follows by a wind passes me.
I turn my half body around and my jaw drop with a gasp. "Holy... Shit" the two tree trunk side starts to glow and form of something like a portal, I don't know what's in my head but I went closer to take a look.
Soon, a door was now in front of me and I saw a keyhole, looking at the key in my hand, I slide it inside and heard a click.
Putting my hand at the handle and open the door, surprise was all over my face to see it inside.
The other side that was behind the door was different, it look so magical. I was hesitate to go inside, I look around to see I'm the only one and so, I took the key and slowly getting inside the other side.
Word "wow" escape from my mouth, the place was beautiful and I couldn't even notice that the portal already gone behind me, I walked while my eyes are wondering around.
I saw a dragon or sea dragon up in the sky, it was already 3pm and the sunset here is also beautiful, I can hear a water fall near from me.
I couldn't believe what I just saw "oh my god... Is Keisha knows about this?" The place was beautiful and I couldn't stop staring, I hide the key back to my pocket. I explore more the forest.
Getting far away I heard a rustling sound and I stop to my tracks. I was about to turn around when a cold sharp thing was in my neck "Don't move or I will slit your throat!" I raised my arms What the hell?!
And another one was coming out "well, well, well, I recognize your wearing. You're from the mortal world" he said with a grin on his face. His smile is scaring me. "Another unclaimed has decided to get in here"
unclaimed? "Exactly, unclaimed like them get inside here without knowing they dig their own graves" a voice of female behind me said and both chuckle.
The woman pull my hair to look made me look at her "now unclaimed, if you don't want to die be cooperated and follow us!" She let go of my hair and push me that I almost fall to the ground.
The man pull my arm firmly "Don't try to escape if you want to survive" he said before he pull and walked dragging me along with him.
What did I put myself into... Fuck this life!
To be Continued...
Sharmel is struggling at her first day to the Art of Academy from the Enchanix world, will she able to keep up as unclaimed?

"Pssst! Sharmel!" I can feel someone shake my body and I slowly getting awake "stop it...!" I groan and pull my arm away as someone tries to pull me. "Come on, you will be getting late for your first day here"
First day? First day of what? It's already fourth qu- that's when I realized that something, I open my eyes and jolt up, looking around to my room I make a small yell so it wasn't dream at all... Nancy look to my reaction thinking I must have gone crazy.
"It's not dream after all" I sigh deeply and I look down to see a uniform at my cover lap.
"Get dress, I won't wait for you. I might get late" Looking up, Nancy was already dressed to her uniform.
No doubt, she's the daughter of one of the demonic demon. Darkness students uniform are like that same as the lightness, their uniform is stylish unlike as the unclaimed is plain and simple.
Why do I care anyway, their uniform is so boring and it's hard to walk at them as well! Rolling my eyes, Nancy finish her make up on and leaves our room.
After dressing myself up I went out. And as soon I got out, only just two or 5 steps, Immortal stop their chattering and look at me in hateful look. Well what did I except for? I am the "unclaimed" I want to roll my eyes when I heard a voice and follow it.
And I wish I just didn't because what I saw was another unclaimed thrown at the ground while the immortals laugh at him "you better know your place, unclaimed!" Said one of them and laugh before they left.
Poor guy...
He was badly injured and tries to get up to pick up his things, feeling pity and guilty inside, I went to him and help him out.
He flinch and look at up in surprise, In hand him his book with a small smile on my face "here" he took it from me and thank me before he left.
I sigh and look up to the grey sky "I guess it's going to rain" I mumbled while I couldn't stop thinking from the happening to me yesterday.
Yesterday...
Two unknown humans or not humans at all, let's say immortal capture me while I was wondering and admired their world. The immortal is sill grabbing me by my arm, we've walking non stop and I have no idea where they taking me. The two are Demons base on their wings, and it's no doubt that this will be their temper.
"Where are we going by the way?" I ask them but none of the demons reply at me. So arrogant, didn't know it exist here. Everything here beautiful with weird animals like bird has tree eyes, turtle with growing plants on their backs and others. The world is different.
The demons suddenly stops and took something on his pocket, to my surprise, it's the same key that Keisha give me. Oh my god... So the key is from this world, but where did Keisha get the key?
I didn't dare to say anything and it's better to be quite than saying anything, the key I have is useful for me.
"Clavis Azumonis, aperi portam!" I raised my eyebrows "ah what is he-" my words were caught off when the key glows and it goes to between the trees just like earlier when I got inside.
The portal reveals, the other side is like a castle "are we going to see your queen, or maybe your king?" I joke but the female immortal glares at me "shut up and follow us" I was bewildered follow you really? don't need to follow you around when this guy over here already pull me with him as if I'm his girlfriend taking me back home.
The demon pull me again and drag me inside, once we're at the other side, it was dark outside probably nighttime. And fireflies are everywhere.
They keep pulling me along with them and we we're inside the castle, one of the guards look at me "Ah, another unclaimed, welcome to the Arts of Academy" he welcomes me with a smile, and I can see that he has wings "are you a angel?" I can't help but ask and he burst to a laugh.
"Why of course I am, young unclaimed! mortals like you are a welcome here" he gives me a smile. At least one immortal welcomes me warmly unlike these two.
"You're making yourself as a joke, mortal like her should never welcome in our world" said the female demon before we go inside the gate.
My jaw almost drop to what I'm seeing and even everything is dark from the night, it sill look stunning and beautiful. So this is how their academy looks like in this world. Sill pulling me along with them, I had enough so I took my arm off from his grips.
"I can walk by myself and no need to drag me like I'm some dog" I hiss at him showing him that I am not tolerate who treat her that way. The demons only give me a cold stare, but it won't scare me. "Fine, follow us but don't try to ran away"
The demons let me go to free myself walking, I was amazed to the academy, the art and building are amazing, there is also a painting at ceiling that look like a renaissance art.
We stop at the huge door, the demon guy knocked, hearing a faint voice "come in" shivers me. It was hoarse, raspy and cold voice, it's a voice of a man. The demon open the door and look at me urge to follow him inside "I'll just wait here" the demon girl didn't follow and obligate to just wait for her companion outside.
The room was huge, like a ballroom. white, silver, and golden yellow color of the whole room. Our steps are echoing, I look and my eyes widened to see two or more Archangel, their seats were at top that Almost reach at the ceiling.
"Who is this with you? Another mortal" the demon bow his head and glance at me and raise his head then look back to them "she is, councilor. We caught her after we saw her wondering around" I look down to hide my grimace didn't know wondering around is illegal.
My eyes dart to the councilor, his skin is pale as white, his hair is silver long with small braids, he wears appropriate tire with long cloak, his eyes are green, and his face is serious. There is no doubt, this guy is a angel. I can feel myself shiver just looking at him.
As if feeling my gaze at him, the councilor's eyes look at me and I immediately avoid his gaze by looking back down. Damn it, do every immortal feel someone's gaze looking at them!?
Biting my lip to curse myself when I heard his voice calling me "raise your head and look at me, child" I don't know when my head up but I did what he said.
His eyes looking straight at me with his serious face, he look so young, same age as me. But I know he is a immortal and lives thousands of years, maybe he was still alive before I was born.
Looking at him feels strange as if the world stops around us, we continue to look at each other. I raise my a one eyebrow and he smile as if he had his fun watching my reaction.
You think I'm scared of you? Ha! I'm getting out of here anyway! Or that's what I thought.
"I can see your a brave one, strong yet reckless girl" she make a grin face "really?" I blurt out all of a sudden and the demon give me a glare to shut me up. And I just scoff and cross my arm.
"You're interesting creature, unclaimed. This is the my first time to see a moral talk back to a immortal who had power over you" I glare at him and control my temper to avoid making a fight scene. The councilor look to the two demons as if he tells our conversation to each other are over.
"Take this unclaimed to her room since she already here. She won't be able to go back to her world unless she age" he said making my eyes widened. Rest of my life? I have to stay here for rest of my life?
The demons supposed to grab me but I throw my arms off hysterically and I snapped "That's bullshit! You can't keep me here, take me back now!"
The councilor smile at me but his smile made me uncomfortable and realize something that I regret all my life. "Her life will be starting from here until she died among the unclaimed" he reply and nod to the demons as if saying that our conversation are over and they took me away.
Present day...
I wish everything was just a dream, a nightmare dream but when I wake up, all I expect went go down in disappointment. "Hey aren't you unclaimed?" I turn my half body and saw a angel coming towards me "yes, I am. Well as you can see" I wasn't interested to talk so I turn away.
"You're late in your class, you should go" I sigh and without a response I just walked out of way and head to my class.
It's hard to find my class that I need to ask directions, after minutes trying, I finally found the room and got inside.
It's just like the angel said, only unclaimed are in this room as we're not a immortal. The room is just simple like a classroom in mortal world. And the teacher wasn't there yet as well.
"I want to go home"
"I can't stay in this place longer!"
"I'm not a immortal, so those creature can easily step down at creatures like us"
"I wonder how my mom right now? She must have wonder where I am"
"I can't stay here! My grandma is on the hospital and I want to see her, she is the only family I have!"
Those are the words that I heard from the other mortal. I dart my eyes to one of the empty seat and sat down on it, the room is fill with the voice of begging mortals, crying to go home, others are not in themselves due to depression and stress, others are now in deep haze...
The door freaks open and everyone stop talking. A angel with a pile of books on his hand walking with a clicking sound at the marble ground, all of us are silent on his presence and not say anything afraid to get harm by him.
"Well, everyone is already here, I hope" his voice rang through the room. the door shut with a loud bang, everyone took glance to each other before looking up back to him. "Now, I am Angel Filicio, and I will be your teacher for your spiritual." Everyone whisper, confused by his words.
"Each of you will have a given task, and you will do it even though you're just a mortal. Unlike us, immortal can do the task easier because of our energy and it's not hard for us to do our task." Angel Filicio clasps both of his hand together behind his back looking each one of us.
"Soon, you will discover your own abilities if you train hard" he said before going to the table and took one of the book that was piled in.
"Now, each one of you will have a book just like this" he lift the book, the book is color brown with golden written saying the spiritual for unclaimed everyone look at it as if waiting to see the book.
Angel Filicio gave us a book one by one, I flip to any pages and slide my fingertips to the pages. Chapter 1: the rules for unclaimed, Chapter 2: the abilities, Chapter 3: the history of unclaimed and immortals. And many more. holy mativilious! This book is not just for us but also it also has contex and history!
Inside me is filled with surprise and excitement, who could ever thought that I will learn so many things inside this world. or so I thought?
"Watch where you going, unclaimed!" while walking, I accidentally bumped to someone because I was too focused to the things that was in my arms trying to adjust them. I swear Angel Filicio really put us in the hard work!
"I'm sorry" the demon look straight at me with annoyed look "you better know your place unclaimed, don't you ever cross the line here. Do you get it?" She said with her eyes Looking at me from head to toe before she walks away bumping my shoulder that I almost fall to the floor.
What's wrong with her? I never knew there is also such a spoiled girls here in this world. That demon girl is really a demon. Looking away from her, some immortals look at me with a hated look, others are just whisper while their eyes are still on me. I walk despite of my embarrassment to myself.
"Students of darkness and lightness, the upcoming tournament will be just in few days!" Everyone stop to listen to the announcement others just walk past by "so get ready, sit back and relax to enjoy the show! Thank you"
The door of my room open just before I'm opening it. "unclaimed?" The demon girl that I bumped with was there, I look behind her to see Nancy. "She has a name, Astrid" Nancy roll back her eyes and grins at me "come on in Sharmel" Nancy push Astrid away from the door.
Astrid just scoff and cross her arms to her chest "you do realize that she is unclaimed and creature like her are forbidden to talk with us or be friend with us" she glare at me but Nancy just shrug her off.
"So what? The rules didn't even say that we're not allowed to talk to them. It's up to us if we can be friends with them" Astrid just grin bitterly "it's the same thing!"
"Sharmel, why don't you join us?" Nancy ignore Astrid and talk to me instead, I look at her bewildered "to where?" She smile at me and pull me along with her.
Nancy just drag me out of our room dragging me somewhere.
We're out of the academy at the rooftop, I look at Nancy confused, behind her is Astrid folding her arms to her chest "why are we here?" I look around and two other immortals standing at the rails. They turn around to see us.
"Well, well, well, the unclaimed is with them!" Said the other with a grin on his face. His not a angel or demon. "Greetings unclaimed, as I'm, Jorge the great wizard!" He bows at me in medieval style, I look at Nancy and whispered "wizard?"
Nancy shook her head and roll her eyes "He isn't, he is the worst wizard in the academy" "Hey! That wasn't nice to say it" the wizard grimace disapointed from Nancy's words, and Nancy just shrug her shoulder "not a problem, wizard" she reply and place her hand to my shoulder.
"My dear friend, the reason why you're here it's because you will do something, it's a traditional for unclaimed, let's say, it's a welcome greetings for unclaimed" Nancy push me forward gently to see a... huge sling shoot?
"What is that thing doing here?" Nancy push me making me hold the railing. I look down to see the other immortal shouting while looking at me watching me to sat at the sling.
"Um.. I think it's a bad idea to-" but before I can even finish my words, the demon pull me and made me sat down at the sling "get ready or not! Make sure to hold on!" He shouted "wait what-" without a warning, he pulls the strap of the sling and let go.
I scream in horror as the sling was flying out and there was no safety that my body was thrown out from the sling "oh damn! I told her to hold on!" The demon laughs while I was falling.
Oh my god! I'm about to fall! Shit! I close my eyes waiting my body to hit at the ground but instead, I was flying.
I slowly open my eyes to see a angel that I met yesterday, or rather the councilor save me from falling. He caught me with his arms, his wings slowly making us going down.
I never see him this close, his face look like snow white, pale as snow... and his eyes are beautiful, it's like it lit up with his emerald green eye. He look attractive to be a angel.
I caught my breath when the councilor suddenly look at me, our face were close that we almost kiss. He raised his eyebrow "aren't you going down?" His voice is raspy and hoarse that sends my shiver down to spine. "Ah, yes, yes... I-.. I'm going" I got out from his arm and strengthen up my clothes.
I look up to see Nancy, Astrid and the other two immortal, I gave them a glare look. "What is the meaning of this? did you, all immortal waste your time to make the unclaimed fall for your tricks?" He looks to others with displeasing look showing that he was disappointed to them.
He then look at me "and you unclaimed, you decide to fall at their trick?" I avoid his gaze and said "I'm sorry" I heard him sigh under his breath "go back unclaimed, I'm sure you have something to do right now" I look up at him and bow my head a little before I leave.
"As for you all, I won't tolerate this" the councilor spread his wings giving the other immortal last look before flies out on the air.
So this is how my new life with them, seem like I will have a hard time here... I fall out to their tricks...
