NIGHT

After dinner, Ramsay and Noah lay down beside each other in their room as they stared at the ceiling.

''Brother, why do you think master doesn't like it when we talk about Axrax and other kingdoms, also himself?'' Noah asked Ramsay.

''I don't know but I think there is something we don't know about or something he doesn't want his family to know about'' said Ramsay.

''He even told his son that he doesn't have magic. Is it true that his son might not have magic'' asked Noah.

''No, it is not or maybe it is true I don't know. All I know is wizards always give birth to wizards and he said his son doesn't have magic'' said Ramsay.

''Which mean it either the master lied to his son because of a reason or not all child born by wizard has magic'' said Noah.

''You might be right. Master also seems weird, sometimes he acts nice and caring, and sometimes he is harsh'' said Ramsay.

''There must be something going on with him. Whatever it is we will find out one day. Let's get some sleep, we have to wake up very early in the morning to train'' said Ramsay.

NEXT DAY (MORNING)

Ramsay and Noah woke up very early in the morning and went outside the house to start their training.

On getting outside the house, they met Zussorender sited on his chair holding a knife with a lot of sticks next to him on the ground.

The two royal princes went to Zussorender and greeted him, then stood in front of him.

''I will be teaching you something new today'' said Zussorender to the two royal princes and stood up.

Zussorender gave the knife to Ramsay and walked away from them.

Zussorender stopped walking on getting a bit far from them, his back facing the two royal princes.

''Ramsay, throw the knife at me'' said Zussorender to Ramsay.

''What do you mean?"' Ramsay (confused) asked Zussorender.

''I said throw the knife at me'' Zussorender shouted at Ramsay.

''Master, even if you beat Ramsay in hand combat but turning your back on us and wanting Ramsay to throw a knife at you from behind is not a good idea. You could get hurt or killed'' said Noah (confused) to Zussorender.

''Yes master, I also don't think this is a good idea. You have a family and a kid, I don't want you to get hurt or even killed. I also don't want to be the cause of your death'' said Ramsay.

''You both are fools, especially you Ramsay. You are nothing but a coward'' said Zussorender to them (his back still facing them.

That got Ramsay annoyed and he look at Zussorender with anger.

Zussorender continued ''and you want to be the next King of Axrax, a coward like you don't deserve to sit on the throne"

''Stop master'' said Ramsay ( now getting angry) to Zussorender.

Zussorender continued "you are useless Ramsay, even a slave is better than you.

You can't throw a knife at me, am sure even if it is an enemy you still won't be able to raise your sword because of your incompetence.

You don't deserve to be a prince not to talk of a King''

That made Ramsay get angrier and shouted I'i am not a coward'' as he threw the knife at Zussorender.

The two royal princes became scared as Ramsay threw the knife in anger.

Ramsay and Noah were surprised to see the knife stopped (levitated) on getting a few paces from thrusting Zussorender's back.

''How..did you do that?'' Noah (surprised) asked Zussorender.

''It's called mind control" said Zussorender to Noah.

Zussorender turned to the two royal princes and began to walk toward them, the knife also moving still levitated.

Zussorender said to the two royal princes "being a wizard you must be sensitive to everything around you, just like I have told you before, don't let your guard down.

A wizard must be able to hear things and speak to a living thing apart from a human, for example, an animal'', as he walked to them.

Zussorender stopped in front of the two royal princes also the knife stopped moving but still levitated in front of them.

''So you mean, the wizard can talk to animals?'' Noah asked Zussorender while Ramsay stared at the knife.

''Yes. Wizards can also communicate with nature, there is more to a wizard than just being someone that possesses magic.

Being a wizard makes you two times a human, and every about you becomes heightened, what I mean is that your hearing, seeing, smelling, and everything about you is two times of a human.

I was able to hear the sound of the knife, that was how I was able to stop the knife and no human can hear such sound'' said Zussorender to the two royal princes.

''I really now want to learn everything about being a wizard'' said Noah with a smile.

Ramsay touched the knife and felt his hotness, he quickly retracted his hand.

''It's hot'' said Ramsay (in slight pain).

''I made it hot'' said Zussorender with a smile.

''Wow, when are you going to teach us that trick of hotness'' said Noah to Zussorender.

''I told you many times it's not a trick it's magic. And if you two are to learn mind control you must learn how to control your mind first'' said Zussorender.

''How do we do that?" asked Noah.

''I will tell you later. And you Ramsay, don't take everything I said to you to the heart I just made those words up so you could get angry and throw the knife, you are not a coward'' said Zussorender to Ramsay.

''What do you mean?'' Ramsay asked Zussorender.

''Your training today will be stopping things just like I did but it won't be a knife'' said Zussorender to the two royal princes and took the knife then went back to his chair.

Zussorender sat down on his chair and placed the knife beside him.

Zussorender said to the two royal princes facing him ''now get ready''.

''For what?'' Noah asked Zussorender.

''Don't you see the sticks next to him, he wants us to stop them'' said Ramsay to Noah.

''Are we not turning back?"' Noah asked Zussorender.

''You can't even stop the stick facing it I guarantee that, so you are not turning your back against it. Now get ready'' said Zusoorender to the two royal princes.

The two royal princes get prepared for the stick.

Zussorender used his magic to carry two sticks and threw them toward the two royal princes but they couldn't stop them and they hit their faces.

Till night, the two royal princes were not able to stop a single stick, the sticks just kept hitting them in the face or body and they grow tired and hungry.

Zussorender threw two sticks at the two royal princes, this time they didn't try to stop it but held it.

''We are tired master, we can't stop the stick let end it for today'' said Ramsay (tired) to Zussorender.

''Am also hungry'' said Noah to Zussorender as he dropped the stick on the ground (also Ramsay).

''You both are lazy. They will be no food not until you both stop a stick'' said Zussorender.

''I can't take this anymore master. I have to go in to eat or I will die of hunger'' said Noah and turned back, then began to walk in.

As Noah walked to the door of the house, Zussorender took the knife and threw it at Noah.

Ramsay became shocked and scared at the same time as the knife moved forward toward Noah.

Noah suddenly could hear the knife sound and faced the knife. The knife stopped in front of Noah (levitated) and the color of his eyes became yellow, then the knife shattered into pieces.

Zussorender and Ramsay were surprised at what just happened.

Noah felt weak and fell on his knee with his head bowed down, Ramsay quickly ran to Noah and kneel beside him.

Ramsay asked Noah what happened to him not noticing the color of his eyes but Noah gave no response because he was too weak to talk.

Zussorender walked to the two royal princes and kneel in front of Noah. Zussorender raised Noah's face by raising Noah's chin with his hand then he saw the color of Noah's eyes.

Zussorender became afraid on seeing the color of Noah's eyes.

Noah's eyes became normal and he fainted which got Ramsay scared.

''What wrong with him?"' Ramsay (scared) asked Zussorender on seeing Noah faint.

''Nothing is wrong with him, he is just tired, let's get him inside'' said Zussorender to Ramsay.

Noah was lying on the bed, Zussorender sat beside him and placed his hand on Noah's head then Zussorender began to chant a spell while Ramsay (worried) stood looking at Noah.

After Zussorender was done with the spell Ramsay asked him ''is he going to be okay and what really wrong with him''.

''Yes, he will be okay. He used too much of his magic to stop the knife and that drained his energy since he hasn't mastered his magic'' said Zussorender to Ramsay.

''Okay'' said Ramsay.

''Let him rest, let go to the dining table to eat'' said Zussorender.

After dinner, Zussorender brought out a box in his room, inside the box was a very old book. Zussorender brought out the book and opened to a page where a dragon, a human, and a ball picture were drawn with ancient words next to the pictures. Zussorender read the words and said to himself ''oh no''.
