Chapter 2: Are you that weak?

It's 7:30 and Excel was on his way to school. He looks outside the train to see the city.

Excel: I hope today will be peaceful.

He reached the school. As the day before he saw the students in groups.

'On what basis are they divided'

Unknown voice: Excel wait...

Excel: huh...

He looks back to see luck.

Luck: Good morning Excel.

Excel: (annoyed)Why did you tell me to Stop?

Luck: oh.. I wanted to go to class together.

Excel: Are you a child?

Luck: No, because I know your secret.

Excel: (Slightly backing) What secret?

Luck: well you see.  When I look at your magic. It looks like a chest. A chest where a lot of magic is suppressed.

Excel: I think you are just imagining things. I  just a mere level 3.

Luck: We will see.  Since you are my partner in the magic class.

Excel: When did I become your partner?

Luck: Yesterday. We both fought together. Did you already forget?

Excel: Yeah I remember that.

While talking they both reached their class. They both got to their seats.

Excel: (mind) Finally peace.  But what that brat said is true then it can be a real issue. I will get rid of him if required.

After 5 minutes Miss Belladonna came. The first two periods were normal.  But then came magic class.  As Luck told, he and Excel were together in combat practice.

Excel: *sigh* What the...With him again.

Luck: See Excel what did I told you.

Excel: Whatever. Just shut up.

Luck: OK OK

Teacher: OK since everyone is in their groups.  Let's start today's class. Today,  we are going to learn about the five basic elements.

Some student: But sensei don't we all know that already.

Teacher: You may be right. But to master anything, first, you need to know about the basics.

Teacher: As you, all know there are five basic elements. Fire, water, wind, earth, lightning. And these elements have their own balance.

Teacher: Using a basic element doesn't mean that you will be at a disadvantage against those with their own personal elements. Instead, it means that you can fight them head-on with fearing about elementary disadvantage.

Teacher: So did you get it.  Everyone.

Everyone: Yes sir.

Teacher: Last but not least,  before we begin combat training remember with enough training you can even defeat elements with whomever you are at a disadvantage.

Teacher: OK then everyone let's start.

It was time for Luck and Excel to fight.

Everyone was watching them

Luck: Last time I started. So today you start.

Excel: Oh don't complain if I beat you.

Wind Blast.

Luck dodges it. And uses 'Thunder Spike'. Hundred of thunder waves were heading towards him.  But... Unfortunately for Excel, lost.

He was sleeping on the ground.

Like this many other magic classes went.  Excel and Luck fought many times but each time Excel lost, miserably. But with so many defeats come humiliation.  Every day when he comes to school everyone laughs at him. But Excel did not give them any importance.

Student Council Room

Girl: President did you hear about the loser in class 1-A. 

Another girl: What his name again. Ex...  Excel Bruke. Right!

Girl: Yeah him. He always acts like he is strongest.  But gets defeated by his own training partner.

Another girl: President what do you think.

The president was in deep thoughts so there was no reply for a while.

Girl: President... President

President: Uum... Yeah yeah

After talking for a while both the girls left, leaving the president and another girl behind.

President: Did you notice it too?

Girl: Yeah...  I saw the battle footage. He was doing it on purpose

President: I thought so.  Every time I look at fights. His body is always unhurt.

Girl: Yes. And there is always one thing common. He doesn't loose until nobody can see anything. So should we consult him?

President: No leave him.  For now.

Girl: As you say.

In Class

Excel was sleeping. It was a lunch break. 

Excel:(mind)  Huh look at these fools laughing at me. Well like I even care. That Luck bastard really annoys me.  All he asks me is to release my full power. Well if I did he would not be alive. Hahaha. Guess I will defeat some roadside goons to satisfy me.

Well, Excel did as he said. Beating goons had become a regular thing for him.

Excel: I am home Yomikawa

Yomikawa: So is our loser level 3 back home.

Excel: Quit screwing around.

Yomikawa: Hah. So how was your day?

Excel: Nothing interesting.  Kids laughing beating goons. That's all.

Yomikawa: I see.

Next Day

Excel and Luck again fought and again lost.

Luck: Hey Excel, when are you going to use your full power.

Excel: What power... I don't know. 

Luck: I see the same answer.

During the Lunch break, Excel was walking down the hallway until he crashed into someone.

Excel: Goddammit can't you see

Misaki: Oh sorry...

They both look at each other.

Excel You...

Misaki: You...

Girl: Princes are you fine? The oi, you look where are you going.

Misaki: I am fine Mako.

Mako: Yes princess.

Excel looks behind Misaki to see a bunch of girls just following her.

Excell sees you have minions behind your back.

Mako: What did you say?  Bastard ... Wait aren't you the loser everyone is talking about.

Excel: Oh did I become that famous!

Misaki: Mako stop... Can you guys go on ahead?  I will meet you up soon.

Mako: But.

Misaki: Please.

The group of girls leaves. They were having fantasizing that their princess was going to propose to Excel. But behind the scenes, something else was going on.

Misaki : (terrified)I am sorry for my friend.

Excel: Why?

Misaki: Sorry. She didn't know who she was talking to.

Excel: I see. Is that all? 

Misaki: One more thing.  Why are you acting so weak? First Rank.

Excel: It's none of your business third string.

Misaki: Oh sorry. My mistake. I will be going now.

She starts leaving but.

Excel: Wait.

Misaki: Why?

Excel: Tha... Thanks for not revealing my secret.

Misaki: It's OK. But I think I have one more thing to tell you.  Your secret will not remain a secret.

Excel: And why is that?

Misaki:  Well you see.  Some of the students have already made their hypothesis about your power...  Including the council.

Excel: I see...  Well, it's going to get amusing. Even the council... Ahh, I can't wait.  You can go now.

Misaki leaves him

Misaki meets her group. She made some excuse for meeting Excel.

But deep down she was happy for some reason.

Excel on the other hand was getting amused. He couldn't wait to see the students in despair when they learn... learn that.
