22 The Teachers

One thing Dudley was loved about his new teachers was how much they know about their respective fields of study. Teacher Asura is a world-renowned cook both in the Muggle and the Magical worlds.

According to master, he is known to his close associates as a man who makes strange foods. I heard that he even made one of his classmates traumatised with his foods.

Teacher Wyllt like his ancestor is known by the moniker Prince of Enchanting and Artificing. It is said that there is no enchantment he has not witnessed or created one by himself and no artifact he has not seen before. He is also known in runecraft, illusions and wandless magic.

Dudley's POV

When Teacher Wyllt first met me, he found something strange about me. That was the first thing that ever came out of his mouth when he saw me standing by Marimo. At first, I panicked because I thought he had figured out that my soul was not this bodies original container.

As I was panicking on the way home, he looked at me and said, "its okay, I don't think it's bad as it looks."

When I heard that, my heart calmed down a little and my expression also improved when I realized that maybe he was referring to something else like my body for example. I was still concerned because I did not know what was going on or wrong with me.

When we reached the house, he settled down and took some stuff out. He used a what I think is a diagnosis charm on me.

"Ahh, that could be a problem" he said in surprise.

"What, what's wrong" I asked now anxious about my condition.

"Oh, nothing much, it's just that your magic gene is only half active, according to this, you would not be able to access most of what magic can give unless it becomes a completely dominant gene" Wyllt spoke in a jovial tone.

"And you say, it's not bad!!" I almost shouted at him for worrying me too much.

"I think we can fix it but first I need to run some tests." he said as he turned around and walked into his room. Of course, Marimo took this in stride like nothing could break his composure when the examination was over.

A weeks later he comes out of the room looking like the day we met, all shiny, sparkly and neat. When I saw him, what went through my head was, 'He has mastered the path of the neet.' He went in the room for a week and came out clean as the day he went in.

My thought process quickly broke when he opened his mouth, "You are not thinking anything weird about me are you" he says in an accusing voice.

"No" I answered quickly perhaps too quickly. I knew if this went on something bad was going to happen, so I quickly changed subject.

"How did your tests go, teacher?" I asked in my best innocent voice

"Don't think I don't what you are doing. But before I share the results of the test, let's do our first lesson. Marimo, tis ok right!!" Wyllt shouted to Marimo who was most likely meditating with his sword resting on his legs like usual.

"He has nothing planned for the next few hours so do what you want" Marimo shouted back

"Next time you interrupt my meditation, I will kill you" Marimo threatened with a pulse of killing intent.

"You say that all the time, Mar!" Teacher Wyllt shouted back.

It was about to be a shouting competition when Teacher Asura interrupted, "You guys should keep it down, I'm trying to sleep."

They both went quiet at Teacher Asura's voice. I thought it was strange because Teacher Asura was most likely the weakest here as he only cooks. I looked up and saw Instructor Wyllt's pale face and it suddenly hit me. 'You do not want to mess around with the one who makes your food.' Is what I concluded from looking at Teacher Wyllt's face. My face also kinda when it conclusion really sank in

Anyway, Teacher Wyllt's face returned to its normal complexion and his tone changed back to a jovial tone. "Let's begin the lesson" he said as he moved toward the mat and sat down cross-legged. He motioned for me to do the same and I follow.

He begins to speak, "Close your eyes, think of an area in your body you think is your core. Some think of it in their head area, some others prefer their chest area and some, the navel area. Rare individuals think of theirs in their limb or limbs and those areas are further strengthened. Have you found your area yet?"

I nod, and he begins to talk in a calming hypnotic tone, "Visualize a ball or an object in that area that is slowly emitting light. As the light becomes stronger, it begins to overflow and spread out of into the whole area you picked."

"Slowly the area the object is in cannot hold in the light, so it starts piercing through that area to the other parts of the body. Holes appear all over that area and through those holes, the light starts moving to the other parts of your body."

"From the head to the stomach through the hips to your legs. Slowly the light starts filling up the body, from your leg up to your head. As the light reaches the place where your core is, imagine your core joining the light and becoming one."

"Your entire body becomes the core of the light and of the light. But your body cannot contain this infinite amount of energy. The only way you know how to get rid of the excess energy is to push it out of your body."

"The energy moves to the outer edges of your body and comes back to you. You welcome it back like a child from a journey. But the excess energy coming back is too much for you. It's unbalancing the energy distribution in your body."

"But you let it in anyways because it's yours. Once you feel like every energy that has left you return and you are close to bursting, center it. The energy is yours, it does not go anywhere without your permission."

"As the body is your core, so is the light making you full. Call back every light in the body, return the core to its original shape. Now in your core call the light yours and let go. Let the light do what it is doing. Let the core go too, don't force your will on anything that is happening. Now, wake up!"

With that, Dudley wakes up startled and and quickly looks around to center himself. "How do you feel?" Wyllt asks him when he opens his mouth to reply, he quickly puts his hand on his mouth holding back a retch. He takes ten deep breaths in a steady tempo and slowly removes his hands,

"Like my stomach is having a party." Wyllt nods and says

"It is normal. The first time master did this to me I could not eat solid food for three days."

They wait a few minutes for Dudley to calm down and Wyllt asks again, "How are you feeling?"

Dudley pauses and slowly feels around his body "Like my body is slowly filling up with energy"

Dudley finally replies barely keeping his body from moving. "Good, good. But first I will warn you as my master did me you must not use this exercise more than twice in a lifetime otherwise it will backfire and you will lose half of your magic permanently"

Wyllt warns in a dark tone. Dudley was about to asks another question when Wyllt speaks again, "According to master, this technique is an ancient relic that people only used to find themselves. The more you use the technique, the more unbalanced your soul becomes after all there is only so much pressure one can have on their soul before they go crazy. Now check outside"

Dudley looks at the window and sees that it is dark. He looks back Wyllt and Wyllt says, "You have been in a trance for more than three hours. One of the longest times I've ever witnessed"

"Is that a good thing?" Dudley asks. Wyllt nods

"Give it a day or two your body will completely balance itself and be free from whatever alignment was plaguing you before. Also, one of the reasons why I chose this as your first lesson is because it also works as an aura reading technique when you release the energy from your body."

"What is the verdict teacher? " Dudley asks

"The situation of your magic gene is bit more complicated. I originally concluded you were a variant of a squib and that the more you used your magical power the more dominant your wizard genes becomes leading you to become a full wizard. But after reading your aura, I found out that your body is fully muggle or non-magi..."

"Wait, what? How have I been able to use magical energy then?" Dudley interrupts, shock showing on his face

Wyllt pulls out a staff from nowhere and hits Dudley on his head with it. "Now if you would let me finish"

"Ow" Dudley rubs his head and shuts up

"As I was saying, your body is fully muggle or non-magical. But your soul is powerful enough to awaken some of the recessive genes you gained from your mother. The soul can only do so much that is the reason why you are limited with what you can do with magical power" Wyllt finished

"Is there a way to fully awaken the genes?" Dudley asks and Wyllt nods.

"But first, you must get some sleep. We will continue tomorrow and your training with Marimo will be harsher because you missed today" Wyllt says

"B..B..But" Dudley stutters looking at his teacher

Wyllt stands up and smirks at him
