AQR1: A Peerless Genius from Two Cities [COMPLETED]

6: Magic

The next days had been very busy for Emy and the rest of the Hans. They roamed around the Ming Province na nagawa agad nila sa loob ng isang araw dahil maliit lang naman ang lugar na ito.

They have visited the Oval kung saan ginaganap lahat ng competition na maiisipan ng mga tagaMing na ipaganap. Nagpunta rin sila sa Barracks at sa Ming Academy kung saan siya magpapatuloy ng level three niya ngayong pasukan.

Malaki ang kaibahan ng curriculum ng Ming at Grey. Kung sa Grey ay required ang mga esudyante na umattend araw araw ng mga klase nila, sa Ming ay hindi. As long as, may makakakita sa kanila sa Training Ground.

Kaya karamihan ay nandoon kapag may klase kesa sa loob ng classroom.

Isa pang kailangan sa Ming Academy ay maipasa ang mga pagsusulit kada ikatlong buwan.

Nasa may entrance na ulit sila ng Academy ng masalubong nila sila Liu Fu at Choi Kang.

"Oy, mga pinsan ni Franco, hali kayo dito. Papakitaan ko kayo ng magic."

Nagkatinginan sila Shantal at Emy.

"Magic? Pfft... More likely a bluff." Shantal said. Emy has the same thoughts too.

"Tara, puntahan natin." Sabi naman ni Sabrina at saka nauna na doon kasama si Sammy.

"And I thought she's more reasonable as you." Napailing na sabi ni Emy. Nangunot naman ang kilay ni Shantal.

"What do you mean by that?"

Nauna ng maglakad si Emy para hindi mahotseat ni Shantal.

Agad namang naghanda sila Liu Fu ng makita niyang nagsipaglapitan nga ang mga pinsan ni Franco. He smiled by himself. This is his chance para makapagpakitang gilas. Haow impressed the Ice Princess' cousin of Franco sa pamamagitan ng archery. But now, it is his time to shine.

Agad siyang nagsalin ng tubig sa isang mangkok. At nang mapansin niya na masyado ng malapit ang mga ito ay pinaatras niya sila ng kaunti.

"We need to be careful. This magic trick is kinda dangerous."

"Ah-huh... Show us then." Sabi ni Shantal.

"The four elements have significant effects with one another. The wind may blow out or increase the degree of the fire. The earth can be drowned or nurtured if combined with water. But..."

He paused and looked at the four of them. Though when he looked at Emy ay agad din siyang nagbaba ng tingin.

"Do you know what will happen if the water meets fire?"

Shantal snorted. "Of course, fire will be put out or turned into steam."

Even Sabrina was unimpressed.

Emy, on the other hand, remained impassive.

"Exactly! But my magic now will change your thinking about fire and water." Sinindihan niya ang tubig na nasa mangkok sa harapan niya.

To everyone surprise, the fire floated on the water and changes its color from red to blue to green.

That surely got Emy's attention.

She walked towards Liu Fu na ikinabigla nilang dalawa ni Choi Kang.

"This water... where did you get this?"

Nagkatinginan sila Liu Fu at Choi Kang.

"I cannot divulge the secret of a magician." Liu Fu said.

Emy smirked. Saka siya mas lumapit kanila Liu Fu para bumulong.

"That's not magic. That's chemistry. I am sure this water has a mixture of some kind of gas. That's why the fire was fueled by the water instead of being put out."
