ABC) Teach Everything

You clear your throat again. Im here to teach you all about, uh, magic.

Who the fuck is this dude? says a random student in the back.

Hey mister, why do you look so old? asks another random student.

You cross your arms. I--

Why does your beard look like a broom? asks another.

Gundilf chuckles. Not too good at this, aintcha brother?

You huff. No. Im-- an idea hatched in your mind. ...Im not! Youre right, Gundilf! But I do know who would be good at this.
You look to each side, as well as in the back. In particular, you look at all the teachers. Change of plans. Im here to let the OTHERS teach you about magic.

You widen your stance, ready for combat. But to do that, theyll need some training. I formally challenge all you teachers to a Wizard Battle.

The entire student body gets into an uproar, filled with gasps and chatter.

All the teachers look back towards King Crimsonson.

He nods. Everyone! Stand back for your own safety. He steps forward and adjusts his red cape, then looks at you smugly. Im curious. What could you possibly teach to some of the most elite Wizards of this country?

You pull forward your steel friend. First, you probably should pay attention to your students when they get turned into chairs. You negligent fools.

The chair rattles. Okay, I have no idea what the fuck is going on. Kinda blacked out for the past hour. We throwin a party, pal?

A section of the Fire students whistle.

The King adjusts his collar with his eyes to the side. That is...a fair assessment. He goes back to glaring at you. Still, Wizard Battles are very serious. I hope you are not joking right now.

You set the chair aside by Gundilf. I can assure you, you stretch your neck, That it will be a good joke.



The entire student body stands in a large circle in this grassy field, with ample space in the middle where you and the teachers stand. Gundilf continues to sit in the back atop his dead friend, along with a few of the other teachers who wish not to fight.

You stand stoically, with a slight breeze blowing against your beard. Come at me anyway youd like. I am flexible with my lessons.

The King, standing behind a formation of teachers, nods. Very well. Everyone, pretend this is a disaster-level threat and coordinate accordingly.

Yes, sir! all the teachers say in unison, almost like a military platoon.

Crimsonson takes off his cape and holds it above the ground. He then lets it go.

You cross your arms, waiting. During this small moment, you assess your enemies.

Four of them stand in front like a wall, each with different colored robes corresponding to their element. At a glance, you can tell theyre not actually that tightly knit, even if they seem coordinated.

The blue one looks really bored. The yellow and green one glance at each other with some irritability. The silver one looks nervous.

They hold their hands out front.

The cape hits the ground.

Magic circles immediately form on their hands, with their mouths running off at a staggering speed.

You appear before the front-most one in the blink of an eye. First lesson-- you shove his yellow-sleeved arms away from each other to disrupt the spell, Enough with these silly circles!

You then sweep his leg to trip him, making him fall.

The other two to your sides complete their spells and throw out a sphere of wind from your left, and a large stalagmite from your right.

You dash to the left, punching through the wind sphere with your Chi. You then slide between the Wind Wizards legs, holding him from behind upon getting up.

The stalagmite fast approaches the two of you. Your hostage struggles against your grip.

You cover his face with your large hand, blocking his vision. Second lesson. Do you see any strings?

He lets out a muffled scream.

Pardon me, but youll be impaled if you dont cooperate. Now, focus on the strings.

His breathing slows down. Seems like hes getting calmer. Or rather, he seems fascinated by what hes seeing. He then goes back to panicking once he sees a large spiral of strings headed straight for him.

You grin. Good! Now the rest is up to your instincts!

The stalagmite flies just a foot away from you two.

Suddenly, the Wind Wizard breaks free, sending out a huge shockwave of wind all around him that blows you back a bit, staggers all the other teachers a lot, and destroys the rock in front.

The other teachers gasp in awe.

King Crimsonson squints in confusion, withstanding the huge gust just fine. Without a magic circle? But how?

The Wind Wizard looks at his hands, still taken aback by what he had just done.

You chop his neck lightly, but with a hand of Chi. Consider this your graduation.

He falls down, unconscious.

Just then, a thin bubble shield forms around all the teachers. You look behind and see the blue-robed Wizard finishing a spell.

You smirk, then appear behind her. Before she could react, you restrain her and cover her eyes just like with the Wind fellow.

Water for support-magic. What a waste. You lean closer to her ear. Pardon me, but are you perhaps treated as nothing but a protector?

She sweats a bit, then nods.

Isnt it tiring? What if I told you that Water is one of the strongest elements? Able to wipe out entire cities and claim thousands of ships!

She nods again eagerly, as if saying, Go on.

Those bubbles you just cast, surely you can see them as strings swimming around your colleagues? You grin. Channel your frustrations through these strings!

Suddenly, the bubbles fill up with roaring water. The 2 conscious Wizards start to drown while they flail wildly inside the bubble.

The unconscious Wind Wizard floats to the top of the bubble, much like a dead fish would.

And yet, King Crimsonson stays grounded, simply holding his breath and glaring at you.

She laughs maniacally.

You chop her neck like you did before. Alright, you had your fun, you say before watching her fall to the ground passed out.

The bubbles pop. The other 2 teachers fall back down, wet and also unconscious from nearly drowning.

The King takes a deep breath, then flexes his muscular arms. His sleeves burst open, revealing markings that start to form along his arms. Once the last mark appears on his wrist, fire engulfs his body, immediately evaporating any wetness he had.

You slowly walk towards him. Youre the first Wizard Ive met that isnt a twig.

He slowly approaches you as well. But of course. Sound magic lies in a sound body.

Your intense gaze at each other remained unwavering throughout this exchange.

He exhales, letting out fire through his nose. And yet, I dont see ANY magic around you. What is this trickery youre using?

You stand before him about a foot apart. Your eyes gaze down, but not by much, to meet his. Magic, you say nonchalantly.

He squints.

A) Get the first move. Cast Fist now
B) Taunt him and see what hes made of

NOTE: "Teaching" the other two lessons will definitely happen regardless of the choice.
