Beast Evolution

"I survived the slime's dungeon and then I came to Avalon and joined the knight academy"

"Wait...when you passed through the portal, why didn't you disguise yourself as human, you entered as a beast and then ran away why?"

Ray's eyes widened because he had no answer to her question, when he passed through the portal, he didn't have the transformation skill then, he obtained it when he defeated the slime king, but he couldn't tell her that.

"Or did someone help you with the transformation so you could infiltrate Avalon and get them information about Avalon,"

'What! she still thinks I'm an enemy, well it isn't her fault, no one would trust a beast in a world where beasts and humans don't get along'

'I can't tell her that I forgot to transform into a human, that would sound too stupid, I can just twist it...'

"When I passed through the portal I was still perfecting my transformation spell, when I passed through the portal it failed and I reverted back to my beast form," Ray said.

"You were perfecting your transformation, so it's perfect now right?" Selena asked.

"Yes" Ray answered.

"Change into a beast so I would believe you, I'm just giving you a chance, if I want to I would force the transformation but I'm giving you a chance"

A chair appeared out of thin air and Selena sat down on the chair and crossed her legs waiting for Ray to transform, immediately Ray's body felt light.

His legs which were shaking earlier were now stable and he could move them, Ray knew it was Selena's doing, he wondered how powerful she was.

"Now that you know I'm a beast, what are you going to do with me?" Ray asked her.

"I'm still processing, if you are truly a knight of Avalon then no problem, but if you are an intruder or you are with the enemy then I don't need to tell you what happens next, now transform"

[Transformation]

A bright light enveloped Ray and he transformed back to his beast form but his clothes were still intact.

"Huh! what is this" Selena scoffed.

"Is something wrong?" Ray asked.

"I was expecting something scary but you look like a humanoid cat, you are kinda cute though"

'Huh...what did she just say, kinda cute...then I guess I'm safe, I was still worried that she was going to capture and torture me'

[Transformation]

The light shone again and Ray transformed back to his human form, he was now standing in front of Selena waiting for her to say something.

"Is something wrong?" Ray asked as Selena was just staring at him without saying anything.

"No...so Authur wanted a magic teacher for you, and I want to keep my eyes on you, so I'm going to be your magic teacher," Selena said.

"Huh!..you want to be my magic teacher, what would Sir Authur say, what about the magic academy..."

"Don't worry, I won't be going with you to the knight academy, I still have lots of things to do here"

"But I'm going back tomorrow, how are we going to train if you are not leaving Avalon, wait...I don't want to stay here in Avalon...please" Ray pleaded

"Who said anything about staying here in Avalon,"

"But how would you stay here in Avalon and train me when I'm in the knight academy"

"Ohh, is that your misunderstanding, I'm not going with you but my clone would go with you,"

"Y-Your clone...you have the ability to clone yourself?"

"Yes," Selena answered.

"Can humans do that, the high level beast that attacked us has the ability to clone itself, I thought only beasts could do that" Ray said in surprise.

"Well I can, so here is what's going to happen, since you have a powerful magical ability I would train you but..." Selena stopped and took a deep breath.

"Let's start, show me one of your spells"

"O-Okay"

'She's definitely planning something, I don't know what but I know she's planning something for me, I can't let my guard down'

"I only know one spell for darkness, and two spells for Ice' Ray told her.

"Don't worry go for it, and attack me so I would see how strong your spells are"

"I should attack you, Isn't that too much, what if..." Before Ray could finish his sentence Selena spoke.

"Even if you train for hundreds of years, none of your attacks would have an effect on me"

'Even though she's the head of the mage academy, she doesn't know what type of spell I use, I would surprise her'

Selena raised her hands up and the distance between them widened immediately, Selena pointed to Ray and told him to attack.

"Here goes nothing" Ray mumbled and charged toward Selena.

'Charging without thinking, well he's a knight so I wouldn't blame him, I wonder what kind of spells he has'

Ray kept running towards Selena, she stood there looking at him as he ran towards her.

'She hasn't made any moves yet, she's really underestimating me' Ray stopped as he was within range.

[Dark Binds]

Ray placed both of his hands together and dark roots sprouted out of the sand and caught Selena in place.

[Ice spear]

Ray fired a series of ice spears toward Selena but still, she didn't move an inch, she didn't try to dodge or evade his ice spear.

*Swoosh*

Ray's ice spears passed right through Selena's body and crashed into the wall.

Ray who was waiting to see how Selena who dodge the ice was dumbfounded, he stood still with his jaws dropped staring at Selena.

"The ice passed through her..."

Selena took a step forward and passed through Ray's dark binds with a smile on her face.
