Physics The Greatest Magic

John cast deprehendre to see if there was anyone keeping watch on him, and luckily, there wasn't. There were only guards outside the dorm making sure nothing bad would get in. 

John opened the windows and cast furtim, before jumping down from the third floor, to the bottom. John made sure to cast Silentium and levite to not make any sound after he landed. 

The window was aimed towards the school, so all he had to do was head straight to it. John made sure to stay near the path, but at the same time, off of it. If any students passed by, John might accidentally bump into them, even while he was invisible. 

'Better safe than sorry.' John thought. 

As John followed the path back to the school, he detected Serena and Ariel's location with deprehendre. They weren't at their dorms and seemed to be strolling around. 

'I-I'm not spying on them, I'm just going to see if there're any problems…'John justified himself. 

'Since they were in the direction of the school, then it should be fast. I can't be late or master will…' John thought. 

Just thinking about it gives him goosebumps. 

A minute later, John reached them. They were near a pond and were sitting on a bench, on a platform near it. The pond really looked beautiful at night. 

"This is a pretty good spot, it's also quiet." Said Ariel. 

"Yeah, for some reason I'm not feeling tired at all and I'm not in the mood to sleep," Said Serena. 

'Lucky you... I have hell waiting for me after this... I wish I could sleep…' John spoke to himself. 

"John was lost in thought today..." Said Ariel. 

"Hmm? Yeah." Replied Serena. 

'Why did the conversation suddenly shift to me? Moreover, I feel bad spying on them like this so I'll just go.' John thought to himself.

 "Hey Ariel, I've been meaning to ask but you usually pay a lot of attention to John, don't you?" Serena asked.

'Hm? Maybe I'll just stay for a little longer…'' John decided.

Ariel hastily nodded with a proud expression. 

"Why do you look so proud…?" Asked Serena. 

"Hehe..." 

"Hey Ariel... What do you...? Think about John?" She continued.

Hm...?! 

"John... He can be brave but reckless... He's kind to others regardless of their status and doesn't treat them badly, he gave me a reason to live... John is like... the star? No... Sun? Hm... Either way, I really like John." Ariel answered.

'Eh?' John exclaimed to himself.

Before John even realised it, the moment she finished speaking, he ran. He ran as fast as he could, without making any sound, straight inside of the school. 

When John finally realised it, he stopped, he was right in front of the portal. 

'Why did I run? Guilt? No, I felt guilty for listening over their conversation, but that's not why. Why am I so happy? Why do I feel like I just won the lottery? Calm down... Calm down…' John wondered with shock. 

"*Inhale* *Exhale*" 

'I can't calm down at ALL!' 

'A-Alright, I'll focus on master's training, I'm not tired at all anymore. I feel like I can run for days... Let's go!' John said to himself with his determination.

----------------------------------------------- 

"Ariel, you sure are amazing..." Said Serena, a saddened smile on her face. 

"Eh? Serena, what's wrong?" Asked Ariel as she got up and sat beside her. 

"You can express your true feelings and you understand them..." Serna replied.

"Serena... do you also-" Ariel asked.

"I don't know..." Serena answered.

------------------------------------------- 

"Master, what are we doing today?" John asked with a happy expression as he approached her in the fields. 

"More offensive training, start warming up." She said with a confused expression. 

"Right away." John happily replied. 

He began to run around the field, and for some reason he wasn't running out of any energy. 

"Stretches." 

"Of course, of course" 

"One two... One two... One two..." 

"Push ups" 

"Of course, of- course." 

*** 

"999... 1000..." 

John needed a break to catch his breath, his energy was starting to weaken. 

"Good" 

"Um, master... What about the offensive training?" John asked. 

With a poker face, she just stared at him.

"We'll start now." 

"Okay!" 

"Come at me, using the stance I taught you yesterday." John's master ordered.

"Okay!" 

John was now overflowing with energy, there was no way he couldn't possibly fail.

*** 

"I-I give..." 

It was a complete loss, John had somehow managed to graze her, but that was it. He was beaten to a pulp. 

While John stared at the stars in the sky, his master extended her hand to him and naturally he grabbed it. In a single motion, she raised his entire body from the floor, as if he weighed as much as a feather. 

"So...?" Said master with a curious expression. 

"So?" John repeated. 

"What happened?" She asked. 

"Y-You could tell that something happened?" 

She nodded. 

"W-Well, you see..." 

'There's no reason to hide it from master, and besides she told me about herself so…' John thought to himself. 

John's embarrassed expression changed into a calm smile as he stared at the sky. 

"Recently, I've started to see a friend as more than just a friend, or rather, both friends... But I didn't change the way I acted around them because I didn't want things to be awkward between us, before coming here, I heard something from one of them that made me really happy... But I don't know what to do... So I'm trying to distract myself with training..." John answered.

"So my training is a distraction?" Asked his master with a cold look in her eyes. 

"Ah, no, I didn't mean it like that, it's more like, being here helps me calm down..." John explained.

Master who heard this stayed silent for a moment, and then she spoke up. 

"I don't know much since I've only ever had one boyfriend but... If you're thinking this deeply about them, just tell them how you feel, girls like that." 

"It's not that simple... If I end up as a couple with one, I feel like it'll change the relationship we have as a party..." John spoke.

"Then why not both? If you all like each other, what's the harm?" She questioned.

'Wha- Having two cute angels for myself... That feels like a sin... But when I actually think about dating them for real, I get a strange warm feeling in my chest... So that's what this feeling was... I'm romantically attracted to them... I like Serena and Ariel. But…' John thought feeling lost in them. 

"I'm not sure they'd like that..." He answered.

"You can't be so sure until you try." 

'But master, didn't you look like you were about to kill someone when I asked what would happen if your boyfriend dated someone else at the same time as you? Is what I want to ask, but I'd better not.' John surmised. 

"Alright, master. Thank you, I'll need more time to think about it, but I'm sure I'll eventually come up with an answer." John replied. 

John's Master who heard this, patted his head and smiled as she said "Good luck". 

As he got up to leave, she stopped him. 

"Where are you going?" She questioned.

"Eh? Uhm, isn't training over for today?" John asked. 

With a creepy smile on her face, she shook her head. 

'N-No! S- HELP!!!' John internally screamed.
