Prismatic Education Begins With A Spark 16 (MTG/Multicross)

Prismatic Education 16

I definitely want to know what the Lorehold scholars would think about this place. Then again… I definitely don’t want them to know what we’re doing to it.

“HRAAAAH!” Mereoleona roared as she punched through one of the golems we were facing, melting a hole straight through its torso. “GRRRRAAHHH!”

She dove to avoid another one swinging its blade at her, bouncing off her hands and into a fire-enhanced kick. The at...

My grimoire floated before me, opening to a new page, which instantly inscribed itself with a spell.

[Prismatic Magic: Prismatic Compass-Map]

Instantly, a glowing mass expanded from the open pages, shaping itself into a general topographical map, with a glowing dot representing me at its center. Colors began to bleed throughout it, creating a multicolored image before my eyes.

Though honestly, it might be a bit TOO c...

“Is something wrong?” The brunette asked me, making me realize I had been staring at her longer than a person normally should.

Calm down. Maybe it’s just a coincidence that she has the same name? “No, well, um…”

She smiled reassuringly. “It’s okay, take your time.”

Wow, even though she’s younger than me, I can really feel the kindness. I mustered up the courage to ...

Without any scholastic responsibilities for the time being, what was I to do? Tag along with Nivall when she goes back to visit her family? 

Nope! I chose to go Planeswalking!

“I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that feeling…” I grumbled as I steadied myself with my staff.

Calling it the Blind Eternities was an apt name, because of how indescribable it was. You couldn’t actu...

“Really?! You’re the one the older Prismari mages were talking about?” Nivall asked me, looking at me as though seeing me for the first time.

“I suppose I am, yes.” 

“So that means… you really met Galazeth Prismari? The founder dragon?”

“I did, yep. That’s how I got a scholarship to attend four years of Strixhaven,” I admitted.

“Amazing.” The genasi breathed. “Tell me, how did you m...

“You the Staff guy?” 

I looked up from my current task, blinking to refocus my vision after all that intense concentration. “Yeah, that’s me. What do you need?”

The dhampyr was dressed in Witherbloom colors, looking all dark and gloomy with minimal green, showing he was more aligned with Black in his college. Yet he brightened up in response to my answer.

“Heard you’ve got a knack for creating good casting foci...

The pest, a spiny creature with no eyes and very sharp teeth, was placed on the flat counter. It took cautious sniffs of the air, munching on some bug that was its food. Nivali stepped back and nodded to me.

A steel ball slammed into the pest, causing it to stiffen up. As always, despite the forceful impact, there was no propulsion from the transfer of inertia; the ball spun in place against the pest’s body, which remained where it was. View Post

“Third year already… Time has really flown, hasn’t it?” Nivali murmured over her tankard of sweetened water.

“That it has,” Hofri agreed, “Have you picked your courses yet?”

The brunette didn’t reply, but just shook her head.

“Alright, you won, so whaddaya want?” The old man asked me grumpily after he emerged from wherever he had been observing me from.

Just like the others, the old priest wore a white robe, though it was open to show a differently-colored shirt and wide-legged pants. More prominently was his white hair; it was not only long, but curved and ...

The others tried to attack, only to be locked down as the mage and sole combatant in our group cast her next spell to encase them in ice.

I sat crosslegged, floating in the air off the ground as my magic kept me aloft. It was the typical demonstration of mystical power, just defying gravity by meditating. It was like a statement saying that the universal constant of gravity could be ignored if one had enough power to do so.

However, meditating had long been proven to improve one’s skill with magic, and as such, I made sure to devote a good amount of time to doing so every wee...

I had considered waiting for Sekiro to kill the Mist Noble hiding the Mibu Village before I showed myself, but the misty setting of the Hidden Forest area got on my nerves. 

Even with the falna, I can barely see more than a dozen meters… I guess the illusion effect trumps the enhancement of the falna. 

I exhaled through my nose, then sidestepped as a spectral blade swung through where I ...

I woke up from another peaceful sleep, my eyes opening to witness a beautiful sight, the first of many.

Irene’s sleeping face, just inches from mine. She looked so peaceful that I didn’t feel like rousing her.

As I watched bemusedly, her eyelids tensed, then fluttered open. Those brown eyes took a moment before they focused on mine.

“Good morning, Irene,” I murmured to her.

I heard Matsu hum as I ate my breakfast, making me look at her curiously. She was reading the newspaper. The headline was discussing Crouch’s case, with the man recently sentenced to receive the Dementor’s Kiss after a lengthy trial, for doing things like escaping Azkaban, use of the Imperius Curse, kidnapping and impersonation, interfering with a multinational event… the list went on.

The crowd cheered as the signal announced the start of the race, and the runners began dashing along the course. Within the first few seconds, one of the runners was struck by the swinging pendulum blades at the first obstacle, causing the person to fall apart into a pile of bloody pieces. Despite the gory scene, the audience continued to roar with excitement.

Sitting in the midst of the stadium filled with onlookers, Matt dug his left han...

Irene then set off a spell to serve as a distraction, causing his magic eye to look away from me. That was when I struck, swiping away his flask with [Steal].

“I didn’t know that Hogwarts had a place like this?” One of the students remarked as they stepped into the room I was using for tutoring.

“What you see is the result of months of hard work,” I informed the newcomer, “We’ve been adjusting things the way we like it.”

Of course, I was lying. The empty classroom had been replaced by one of Matsu’s new Rooms, quite like a separate dimensional sp...

A black-haired girl in a sleeveless black dress dropped down from the tree, landing at the edge of a clearing. Her red eyes caught sight of the man there, and widened as she recognized him.

“You. How are you still alive?” She asked Matt, one hand on the red hilt of her weapon. “I killed you.”

“You did. I just came back.” He gave her a small smile. “It’s been a while, Akame.”

I was a little surprised when Cedric approached me after dinner one night, shortly before the new term’s classes were about to start. From what I could see, many of the students were feeling slothful, both due to the energy spent during the Yule Ball and the heavy snowfall making everything feel dull. The Hufflepuff was the rare exception.

He swung the three-bladed scythe, letting it fly further out by the cable at the end of its handle. Moments before it made contact with its target, a length of black metal flicked upwards, deflecting it off-course.

The announcement for the Yule Ball came around mid-December, giving the students about a week and a half to find someone they wished to invite as a partner. Compared to canon’s fourth years and above, this aged-up AU version we were in allowed the third-years to attend as well, so I knew people like Ginny Weasley and Luna Lovegood could go as long as they found a partner to go with.
