Beast Evolution

"If you can't tell us it's fine, just say so but don't make something up cause I know you are good at that"

"Can I trust you guys?" Ray asked.

"Why not, we are friends, we train together, dine together, laugh together, fight together, and you still don't trust us"

"It's not that, the truth is that, I'm not..."

The door opened and a blond cute girl walked in, the three of them looked at her immediately and she smiled at Ray.

"Ray how are you feeling?"

"Oh Alice, I'm fine thank you" Ray replied.

"Do you know her?" Leia asked.

"Sorry, I'm Alice nice to meet you" she extended her hand to greet Leia.

"I'm Leia"

"I'm Gabriel" both of them greeted her back.

"She is Authur's sister, I met her in a library some time ago"

"Authur's sister...who is Authur?" Leia asked.

"Huh! you don't know who Authur is," Ray asked surprised.

"I also don't know who Authur is," Gabriel said.

"Authur, the senior knight we came to the capital with, Sir Authur"

"What!! she's Authur's sister?" Leia asked in shock.

"Yes," Alice said.

Both of them looked at her in surprise, she looked nothing like Authur, their hair were different, and besides she's a mage and Authur is a knight.

"Are your arms going to be okay, I heard it was badly damaged"

"Yes, I was told I can't wield a weapon again," Ray said.

"What! but you are a knight, if you can't wield a weapon you can't be a knight, isn't that bad?"

"It's bad, but I'm not going to give up, I'm going to try my best" Ray smiled.

"I wish you luck, how long are you going to stay in the academy?"

"For a week, so my hands can heal completely" Ray answered.

"Okay, I'm going to visit you, bye" Alice smiled at Ray and left them.

"How did you know her, are you sure she's Authur's sister?" Leia asked.

"Yes I'm sure, I met her in a library when I first came to Avalon, she was working at the library then, I also met her in the knight academy library, and here in the mage academy library"

"So you've met her in three different libraries, isn't that strange?" Gabriel asked.

"How, we get along well and besides she has lightning attribute, pretty impressive right"

"Lightning is pretty rare, so maybe it's impressive"

"Back to what we were saying, you wanted to say something" Leia looked at Ray.

"Oh, I wanted to tell you guys that, I'm not special, I don't know what Draco was talking about, even though I'm special I don't know how," Ray said.

"Why are you staring at me like that, I'm telling the truth"

"Is that really the truth, I have a lot of questions for you, we have all week or should we start now?" Leia said.

"Ask away, I would answer all of them," Ray said.

...

Some days ago after the attack on Avalon and Avalon academy.

Authur walked inside a room, the room was dimly lit with a few beast crystals hanging around, the room was fairly large with only a circular table and some chairs in the middle.

The chairs were six in number and five of them had been occupied, Authur being the last person to step in sat on the last chair.

"Now that we are all here, let the meeting begin," one of them said.

"I'm going to start by saying, we need a plan, we can't continue like this" one of the men said.

"The problem is what should we handle first, the latest attack has made it clear that Avalon is the target, we haven't received a report from the four kingdoms about an attack," another man said.

"From the uprising of some strange beasts known as infected beast, the world as we know it isn't safe again, we need to take quick action to protect the people of Avalon"

"The king expects quick analysis and feedback so we should decide on what to do here and now"

"The first and most important thing we should do is to protect the villages under Avalon, there are the work force of Avalon"

"You are right, we should offer maximum protection so they can keep working and providing resources for Avalon"

"Next how did a group of nobody infiltrate Avalon and Avalon academy, and I heard they came for a scroll, what does it contain?" the man asked.

"The scroll contains ancient magic, even I don't understand it" a lady spoke.

"What!! even if you don't understand it, then why was it in the academy storage room, it should have been destroyed" the man shouted.

"It can't be destroyed, the man that took it can't use it for anything, but I still don't know why he took it," the lady said in a calm voice.

Authur listened to them without adding anything, they also didn't question him because that was what he normally does in all their meeting.

Seated in the chairs were the six of the most important people in Avalon, they were responsible for making decisions concerning war, or battle.

The six of them held six positions in Avalon ranks, they were as follows.

Head of the knight academy Authur,

Head of the mage academy Selena,

The war commander Boreas,

Wilfred the king's personal advisor,

Head of foreign affairs Benjamin,

Head of resources Liam.

Authur and Selena were responsible for decisions concerning the academies, the war commander leads Avalon armies into war, but since the peace treaty was signed years ago, the role of the war commander was useless.

Benjamin was in charge of decisions concerning other kingdoms, Liam was in charge of resources, while Wilfred is responsible for keeping the king updated on all decisions made.

"If he can't use it, there is no need for taking it then, but that was the reason they attacked Avalon, to take the scroll," Boreas said.

"If that's the case then there is someone at least 500 years old that is in need of the scroll" Selena said.

"The scroll isn't the problem now, we have other situation to attend to, what about the upcoming tournaments" Wilfred said.

"We should put that on hold for the time being and focus on protecting Avalon" Boreas said.

"The tournament should go as planned" Authur said making all the others to look at him.

Wilfred took a deep breath before speaking, "you must have a reason for that, let's hear it"

"Avalon is the strongest kingdom among the five kingdoms, if the tournament is put on hold because of an attack, what would the other kingdom think" Authur spoke calmly.

"You are right, if one of the kingdoms is responsible for the attack they would definitely be waiting for this opportunity" Boreas said.

"Then the tournament would continue as planned, knights would be stationed to increase security" Authur said.

"Then that is settled, then on to the last reason, the mage academy..."

"I don't think the mage academy should be moved," Selena said.

"I also think so, the mage academy should remain in the capital as it has always been" Authur said.

"So to finalize, more knights and mages would be sent to villages to increase security, the tournament would be held, and the mage academy would remain in Avalon, does anyone has something to add?" Wilfred asked.

"Then we would end the meeting here..."

...

A week later

"Haaa, finally we are leaving, I'm tired of staying here" Ray sighed.

"I'm a little excited, it's been almost two weeks since we left the knight academy" Gabriel said.

"I can't wait to see everyone..." Leia said.

The three of them had been informed by the senior knights that they were leaving Avalon today.

They already took their baths and put on new clothes, they were staying in a house inside the knight academy in Avalon.

Ray was transferred to the knight academy two days ago when he complained that he was tired of staying here alone, because Gabriel and Leia were staying in the knight academy.

"The knights aren't here yet, I'm tired of waiting" Ray sighed after an hour of waiting.

"Maybe they are busy" Gabriel said lazily.

"Doing what, we were told to be up very early so we can leave early but they are the ones running late"

Ray hands had healed a little and now he could use them, but it was limited, he still couldn't lift heavy object or swing a sword more than five times.

Ray wasn't giving up, all the free time he had he used it for training, he couldn't use a sword so he did a different kind of training.

He tried to perfect his Ki control by learning how to infuse his Ki in different part of his body, he tried infusing Ki in his injured hands and he was able to use them for a while before running out of gas.
