The door opened and Ray's roommates walked inside.
"Ray can you believe Leia actually learnt how to control Ki" Ivan said
"Really" Ray struggled to answer.
"Is something wrong" Ivan asked.
"I trained too much and now I'm really tired" Ray said.
"You trained, how, in this small room" Sofia asked.
"I have also learnt how to control Ki" Ray said and the others were shocked.
"Really, I thought you couldn't?" Leia said
"Well I thought about it and Ki is just like Mana, so how I normally control Mana, I applied the same premise to Ki and it worked" Ray said.
"That's really nice" Leia said.
"Argh, why can't we get it" Ivan shouted.
"Even Ray who stayed behind learned to control it, while we that went to train didn't" Sofia said.
"That's not fair, Ray how did you do it teach me" Ivan said.
"You know I can't teach you cause I really don't understand it that much"
"Tomorrow is another day, I must learn Ki control by tomorrow or else am done for" Ivan said as he lay on his bed.
"Why the rush, you are going to learn it eventually right" Ray said.
"Ohh, we didn't tell you, in three day time duels would be held so the rankings can be changed" Ivan said.
"Well that's your problem not mine, the archers don't get to participate in the duels except if you want to" Sofia said.
"But you know it's important right" Leia said.
"But I won't participate" Sofia said.
"Duels, why are they important now?" Ray asked.
"You know the upcoming knight tournament"
"Yes, what about it?" Ray asked.
"Only, Rank 1 to Rank 50, is going to be participating among the first year students, well except the archers who already have a free pass" Ivan said
"Rank 1 to Rank 50, so 50 of the first year students are going to participate?"
"No not 50, how will I explain this" Ivan said.
"50 of the first year students are going to battle in an official tournament in the training ground, among the 50, ten of them would be selected" Leia said.
"Yes exactly, ten would be selected to participate in the main tournament with the second and third year students" Ivan said.
"Wow, so that means I have to be among the top ranks" Ray said.
"I told you that the rankings is important but you wouldn't listen" Ivan said.
"Well you can have a chance this coming duel and raise your rank" Sofia said.
"Yes I can... damn it, I forgot I have been suspended for a week" Ray said.
"That's too bad, well you can have another chance next week" Ivan said.
"Maybe, well goodnight guys" Ray said.
"Night" they all answered back.
"Ray you still haven't shown me any magic yet" Ivan whispered.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Ivan go to sleep" Sofia said.
"Sorry" Ivan replied and after a while they all drifted to sleep.
...
Morning came rather quickly as Ray had just finished taking his bath, he proceeded to eat his breakfast while other students went for the normal training routine.
After eating he was told to visit the armory, where he would begin his work, Ray was frustrated that he couldn't participate in the upcoming duel, but there was still time.
After this week, the next week when he resumes he was going to go all out so he would reach at least rank 50.
He was currently at rank 68 but it wasn't going to last, when the dueling for the week is over his rank will drop.
Ray had a lot on his plate and he wasn't sure how he wanted to go about it, first the capital, he had to be there before the first snow which is in three weeks, second the tournament, he had to raise his rank but currently he was in the armory with a knight.
"Take up this rag and dust all the armor and weapons, then you can start shining them" the knight said to Ray.
"Okay Sir" Ray replied and the knight left.
"Ugh, this is a lot of work" Ray sighed and started working.
...
It was night time already and Ray had just finished eating dinner, he went to his room to rest from all the work he did.
"Ray I was looking for you, i was told you were working" Lily said as she met Ray in the hallway.
"Yes, the knights made me work in the armory as punishment" Ray said.
"I'm sorry" Lily said.
"Don't be, it's my fault, bye I need to rest" Ray said.
"Okay bye" Lily said and kissed Ray on his cheeks before running away. Ray smiled and continued to his room.
"Hey Ray you are back" Ivan said.
"Hi, I'm so tired" Ray said before slumping into his bed.
"How was training today, what did you guys work on?" Ray asked them.
"Still Ki, I finally sensed it but I still can't control it" Ivan said.
"We were told to learn how to control it first before using it" Leia said.
"Using it to activate the cells?"
"Yes, Sir Jake told us that if we don't learn how to control it, we would end up too tired after using Ki" Leia said.
"Ohh, that makes sense" Ray said.
"So Ray how was your day?" Leia asked
"Stressful, I was told to work in the armory and then the medical center and then... I hate it" Ray said.
"Sorry don't worry it would soon be over" Leia said.
"Sofia what's wrong, you haven't spoken since I came back is something wrong?" Ray asked Sofia.
"Is something wrong with her?" Ray asked Leia and Ivan as Sofia didn't answer.
"I still can't sense my Ki" Sofia said.
"There is nothing wrong with that, it takes time so it not your fault" Ray assured her.
"You don't understand, we aren't much in the archery class, currently I'm the only one who can't sense Ki" Sofia sighed in frustration.
"Ohh, that's why"
"Everyone is already in the next stage of training on how to control Ki, but I'm still behind" Sofia said.
