"So can you tell me why again this man ended up messing a leg?", Mercer sighed. Rubbing the bridge of his noose and putting the glasses on his desk. "Anna do not speak,
Marko please get right to the point."
A jolly looking older man was sitting next to Anna, as she was pouting glaring at Mercer for causing her to be quiet. The man's name was Marko Napoleon, also known as the professor of Restoration magic. With short white hair and glasses as well the man is even older than Mercer. To the point he also taught Mercer when was first a recruit in the college.
Though now isn't a time for them to go through memory lane, as Mercer sat at the table tired and annoyed.
"Haha see it went like this", Marko began. His voice takes on a tone of mysticism. "Once a young handsome lad named Marko Napoleon was"
"Marko if you don't cut to the chase then you'll see the full reason why my nickname is the Wizard king", Mercer cut in, his voice full of anger.
"My once student, I have taught you nothing about the flare of story telling", Marko complained!
Anna stood up behind Marko, her hands spreading open as she raised her arms in the air. Sparks began to rain from the skies as she spun in a circle.
"It's about the epicenes of the story, the flavor. Capturing the audience into falling in love with the story", Anna shouted.
Marko jumped up and stood next to Anna cheering, "Ahh yes young Anna unlike grumpy ass Mercer you have embraced my true teachings"
"ENOUGH! "Commanded Mercer as slammed his hand on the table. "Just get the information on who he is working for then get back to helping out those students am I clear"
"Crystal", both of them replied.
"Dismissed", Mercer said as he waved his staff.
Before either of them could say anything at all they were forced out of the room.
SLAM!
The door behind them hit so hard it ended up shaking the walls. Anna pouted as she slowly walked to the healing wing. Marko followed behind with a cheerful whistle.
"I hate it when he does that", whined Anna. "He never has fun anymore. I remember when he use to make jokes with all of us now he seems so unapproachable these days."
"That boy has a lot on his shoulders right now. I was his teacher when he first started, I was there when got married, I was there when his wife and family died. Now imagine the amount of fear and anger he has allowed his grandson to purposely walk into a trap to see find out who's been capturing our mages."
Anna held her down low, "You're right Marko it's just everything has been so depressing recently I just want to try and liven up the school. Maybe bring joy to others while we still can."
"While I can agree, we both know why you want to do that and it's not for the good of the school.", Marko added.
Anna didn't say anything as she marched on to the hospital wing to watch Marko heal the person they accidentally injured worse. Though in her defense the person can't go on about some blood ritual or something that didn't make sense. Hopefully they'll be able to get more information this time.
"Cheer up young Anna once I finish healing this fiend I can go peek at bathhouses around the surrounding cities", Marko stated a huge smile on his face.
Anna perked up at that and threw Marko on her shoulder, taking off running down the hallway. Pushing students and other people alike out of the way.
