My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer

This time, with Megan's guidance, Luke managed to keep himself in the air. He was one step further on the path to mastering the wind element.

However, not even a minute passed before he fell to the ground. He landed on his feet, without losing his balance, but it was frustrating how a small wobble in his concentration was enough to knock him to the ground. Megan continued in the air looking at the boy, until she placed one of her hands on her chin and began to think out loud.

"Hmm, the control wobble should improve with training." realizing she was starting to focus too much on her thoughts, the girl shook her head and walked down to Luke.

"What did you feel differently?" She said.

"I could understand a little bit how the wind was lifting me up, but there came a time when it just stopped making sense" Luke said as he thought about what had just happened.

However, soon a new idea popped into the head of the young mage, who ran to her desk, opened a drawer and took out a small white crystal. She then walked back to Luke and handed it to the young man.

"Sit down on the floor and hold this." said the young woman. Luke then sat down in a meditation position. Following Megan's directions.

Megan then continued the explanation of her idea "Focus on making the crystal levitate, that should be easy for you."

Luke then with his eyes closed, began trying to imagine the small crystal being levitated by the wind. Receiving support at its base from various sides, just as he received levitating with Megan. He also remembered the feeling he experienced flying with the wizard Zhanid, when all the weight of his body was gone.

Luke's mana was then concentrated in the crystal, and as the crystal began to float, a white light appeared within it. This faint glow was the half-wolf's mana materializing inside the crystal, while the magic was happening.

Megan then approached Luke "Now, keep yourself in that state for five minutes."

The moment Luke heard this, he felt determined to continue. The young magician then timed the time, while reading a book.

The minutes passed and the task of keeping the crystal floating was arduous for Luke. It was like a continuous mental effort, a test of determination. But after the five minutes, Megan approached the boy and with a smile announced his victory.

"You managed to keep the stone levitating for five minutes, do you want to go to the next stage?" Luke then opened his eyes and let the crystal fall into the palm of his hand.

"Sure, but what's the point of all this?" He inquired, curious.

Megan then put her index finger to her lips, showing that she was thinking about how to answer "Hmm, I guess it will make more sense in the next stage."

Luke then again returned to his old position, complaining he said:

"If you say so"

Again the crystal began to levitate, emitting a light this time even stronger.

The young magician then gave the half-wolf his next directions "Now, imagine you are the crystal. Put yourself in the place of the crystal, as if you had a larger version of yourself levitating you."

Within the half-wolf's mental image, he began to visualize a larger version of himself holding him levitating. It didn't take long for the young man to actually begin to float. Now he was in the air and the crystal, began to emit an even stronger glow.

Megan then decided that she would not warn him about the weather, and just left the boy to meditate. She went back to reading her book and making some notes as time passed. Inside Luke's head, that arduous task slowly became relaxing, and he managed to find balance and stay at that point of concentration with gentleness.

After about forty minutes, Luke finally opened his eyes. It was as if he had just come out of a long hot bath, his body was rested and his mind clear. All the effort of keeping himself flying now seemed automatic.

"How long has it been?" Luke asked, confused as he noticed the different window light.

"Hmm, I haven't even seen it" Megan said, who promptly looked at her watch. The girl's face reacted on the spot with amazement "You went for forty minutes on this, I've never seen a rookie do so well on this test before."

The girl had completely forgotten about the time passing while she was focused on reading. Megan's startled reaction made Luke start to laugh, he wasn't annoyed but surprised at his own ability.

"So now if I want to levitate, I just have to replicate that idea."

The Young Man then tried to redo what he had tried before. Floating again, but this time with his eyes open while talking to the girl in front of him. Slowly the half-wolf's feet were levitating.

"Yes, but this magic takes a lot of your mana. Plus it's hard to control where you want to go" the girl noted as she poured herself a cup of tea.

"But what about Orion and Zhanid? They seem to use that idea without any problems" Luke replied.

"Zhanid merges this concept with gravitational magic, whereas Orion uses spirits to manage where he wants to go. It would take a lot of mana and a lot of magic mastery to control with just wind" The moment Megan said this, she then turned around, only to see Luke going back and forth, floating in the air.

"I don't think it's as hard as you said" Luke replied, unassuming.

Again, Megan made an expression of genuine surprise, she was dumbfounded at a visibly beginner mage mastering flight with wind magic so easily.

"H-how are you doing this?!" The girl asked, excited about the novice.

"I just imagine that I am not only being lifted upward, but pulled to the side I want to go."

Luke remembered how Nathalia used the <Grappling Hook>, after so much training alongside the elf, it was impossible not to remember the sesation of being pulled freely through the air.

If he wanted to go right, just by remembering his old training he was already able to control the wind to go in the desired direction.

"If you learn that fast, I have a proposition for you!" Megan said, pointing at the young man.

"Sure." Answered Luke.

"Follow Me" Megan said, moving one of her arms calling to Half-wolf.

The two walked through the corridors of the lab until they exited through the main entrance. It was a little close to dusk, but the beach was still well lit. You could hear the waves of the sea getting a little stronger with the dusk.

Now the two young men were a few steps apart, facing each other on the white sand that reflected the sunlight. The girl then began to concentrate and levitated without any problem. She then looked into Luke's eyes and challenged him.

"You controlled the wind pretty fast, but I'm sure you can't levitate without scattering the sand on the beach.

Luke then thought for a moment, and began to concentrate. Just as he predicted, the beach sand began to fly off in all directions, following the circles of wind that Luke created beneath him. A circle-shaped mark appeared below the young man, and a wave of dust went swirling around him.

Realizing that he had failed the challenge, he then stopped, falling on his feet to the ground. Spreading even more sand. Megan's face showed sincere anger.

"You threw sand at me!" She shouted, soon after, with one of her hands, the girl created a sphere of wind that spread all the sand on her body.

"I'll try one more time, take cover." Luke said, now even more determined that he would be able to win his new challenge. The young man then focused on imagining the wind pulling him from above, not lifting him by his feet.

The current of air lifted Luke by the shoulders, and when his feet were off the sandy ground, the half-wolf opened his eyes. Again his body weight was gone, and he was levitating in the air, not far from the sand, but no longer creating the vortex that spread dust everywhere.

He then again tried to move back and forth, controlling the wind flow on his sides and keeping himself in the air.

In front of such a clear demonstration of pure talent, Megan began to laugh.

"You really are skilled, I liked you."

Luke gave a small smile. The Half-wolf then reached down and approached the young mage.

"I'm sorry for getting you dirty." He said, but before he had time to bow, the mage replied:

"Oh no need, no need! I'm the one who challenged you to it anyway." She said, her face flushing a little.

Now Luke was ready to show Orion his skills.
