Zhanid had left on a quick trip out of the academy. But what the significance of this was was sothing that was not yet clear to Luke or anyone else.
gan explained to Luke that these trips were routine, and this connected well with Zhanid's record on the student council. As much as not having Zhanid's support in developing the research could slow down the developnt of the half-wolf, this situation didn't make Luke uncomfortable, after all, he had enough evidence from gan and Alice to prove the sisters' abilities.
gan walked over to Alice, who remained peacefully sleeping, and with a surprise attack, the girl woke her sleepy sister. Alice got up with a startled gasp, confused at what was happening, looking everywhere in surprise, until she observed gan who was standing behind her.
"Why did you wake up? I just wanted to sleep so more..." Alice said, her cheeks filled with air, it was the girl's angry face. gan crossed her arms, looking into her sister's eyes "You've slept all night, if sleeping at a table wasn't so comfortable you should have gone to one of the dorms!", gan followed walking to the door, making a gesture with her hands calling out to the two.
"Co with , let's eat. Breakfast is the most important al of the day," the girl said as she walked through the door.
gan, Luke and Alice followed to another room in the lab, where there was only one wooden table, the table was circular in shape and on top of it was a basket of food. With breads, honey, jam, peanut butter, fruit and cheese. gan had a proud face, and with one hand on her chest she called out proudly "I went to the cafeteria and got this food for you, but try not to sleep in the lab"
'I don't think she has the right to say that'
[She certainly doesn't]
But she's cute when she sleeps
[You think any woman is cute when she sleeps]
'Maybe'
Alice moved voraciously to the table, sitting down on a wooden chair and picking up two slices of bread. She then took a knife that was nearby and began to spread jam and peanut butter. In a few monts, she was already eating a huge sandwich.
Luke turned to gan and thanked her for her kindness, sitting down at the sa ti as gan. They both started to eat together with Alice. This was a quiet mont, which returned good mories to the half-wolf.

On the other side of the academy, redith was lying on her bed in the special dormitory. The half-fox was staring at the ceiling, reflectively. Next to her head was a cloth with Yuzii's sweat and so hair on it, the idea, was to use this cloth with half-bunny hormones to stimulate Luke.
The problem was that this plan can't even be tested, Luke was out all night and redith didn't know what to do. "He must be busy with research, next night I'll be sure to capture him..." The girl's eyes were clenched, full of energy, with a fire and desire to capture the young man.
redith got up from the bed, she was in black underwear. Advancing to a closet, where she put on her uniform. Starting with the skirt, then the shirt and the jacket that completed the uniform. The girl then made her way to the cafeteria, ate her breakfast, and t her classmates in the central square of the academy.
The girls were chatting, and they all greeted redith, and the conversation went smoothly, until Ruby approached the half-fox, touching her shoulder.
Ruby Vermillion was a shrewd girl, so she noticed when redith put away a cloth with Yuzii's scent, along with a piece of hair.
Ruby brought her face closer to redith, and whispering, she questioned the half-fox "Did you manage to win over your roommate?" she said, letting out a small gentle smile. redith looked Ruby in the eye, as much as the fox lady had the energy to try again, this defeat was still weighing on her.
"He didn't sleep in the dorm today..." redith said, in a voice of defeat.
"I see... But you really had a cunning idea, never would I have thought of that, seducing a boy with the scent of a half-rabbit. Really very clever." Ruby said, as she crossed her arms.
"Do you think Yuzii would bother with that?" redith questioned.
"I don't think it would be a problem, she won't mind it" Ruby concluded.
The two friends then made their way to the study hall, for another day of magic training at lki's academy.

When Luke, gan and Alice finished eating, it was impossible not to talk about Zhanid's trip.
"Zhanid has traveled again" gan said, as Alice still didn't know the news.
"How annoying, well, I've already removed my doubts about the prototype. I don't think his absence will make that much difference" Alice comnted. "Yeah, I think he postponed the trip until after the project was half done" gan added.
"Does he have this habit of traveling unannounced?" Luke questioned.
"Yes" gan and Alice replied at the sa ti.
*sigh*
"That always happens, sotis he gets so interesting information, sotis so book of magic has been discovered" As gan spoke she walked around the room. "There was also that ti when he went out to buy a gene and ca back after four months" Alice replied, before taking a bite out of a piece of bread.
"Gene? Isn't that forbidden at the academy?" Luke questioned
"Ah, well, most mages avoid comnting on it. But Zhanid has so legendary genes" Alice replied, her mouth full of food.
"My sister! You can't just co out and talk about it, even more so casually" gan exclaid, irritated. After swallowing a piece of bread, Alice said "But why should I care? Luke already knows so many secrets"
"Anyway, just be careful!" gan said, crossing her arms, the girl looked Luke in the eye, "Genes are not forbidden, but most mages avoid using them, they are considered too inelegant for a mage. There is also the problem of lki's influence on the island, most students avoid are against the empire, but there are supporters." gan's answer removed all the doubts Luke possessed.
[Zhanid has so legendary genes... The way she spoke so casually about it is even scary]
'Yes, so... I wonder how strong he is compared to Alexis'
[If it took him four months to get a gene, surely that ans he is very strong]
'Yeah... That makes sense'
Luke and gan continued talking, while Alice continued eating. Once everyone was ready, Luke left for the weapons training room near the forge. Where he spent the day evolving and manipulating his magic. As soon as the sun started to fall again, Luke went towards the beach to train water and fire magic.
The half-wolf spent at least three hours casting fire spells on the water, trying to control as much as he could. As much as making a sphere of flas was an easy task, manipulating the flas was a little more complex than it seed.
The half-wolf's idea was to create shapes like those of the poison dragon, but he simply couldn't with fire. However, when Luke tried to channel his energy again, into a kind of mana sphere, like the day he trained with gan, he could easily create any shape his head felt like.
'I see, so it's like fire because it's more volatile than mana, it's harder to control'
[But poison is more volatile than fire]
'Yes, still... Poison doesn't need air to be controlled.
[Why don't you try to control fire with wind magic?]
Balance's idea worked effectively, so Luke was able to improve his fire mastery a bit. He was able to create so simpler forms. Once Luke stopped training with fire magic, the half-wolf went back to training sea manipulation, controlling the waves for another hour. By now Luke was able to control the sea with much more skill, the waves during the night ti period were less complex and strong.
So it was a little easier for Luke to control those heaps of water.
Luke returned to training his mana concentration, then wind manipulation. When Luke got tired of controlling small hurricanes, the young man began to advance to the waters of the beach, turning the sea into ice as he walked, trying to recreate the power that Zhanid had done the day he arrived at the academy.
This training reviewing his powers was sothing that to Luke, didn't seem like much, after all, the only difference was that he now had a slightly more versatile ability than before. But to Balance, this was another demonstration of how much more powerful the boy was.
Before leaving the beach, Luke did a run and so push-ups. After that, he finally flew back on his sword to the dormitory, where he got a big surprise.
