Life at the Royal Magic University of Ferbia slowly returned to normal after the Magic League.
Students once again focused on their studies. Training arenas were filled with magical sparks, and classrooms echoed with the voices of professors explaining advanced magic theories.
Sun, Yuki, and Aria were now well-known among the students.
The champion of the Magic League, Yuki, often walked around the campus with her little dragon Drago resting proudly on her shoulder. The tiny dragon had quickly become popular among the students, and many would stop just to look at it.
But while most students were enjoying their normal university life, Sun had begun spending more and more time in one particular place.
The Grand Library.
The library of the Royal Magic University was enormous. Towering shelves filled with ancient books stretched across the massive hall. Some books were protected by magical seals, while others were so old that even touching them felt like touching history.
Sun loved this place.
To him, magic was not just about power-it was about understanding.
One quiet afternoon, Sun was walking between the shelves when something unusual caught his attention.
On one of the higher shelves rested an old book covered with dust.
The cover was dark blue, and strange golden symbols were carved across it.
Curious, Sun pulled the book out carefully.
The title was written in a language he had never seen before.
He tried to read it slowly.
"Tritopian... Arts."
Sun frowned slightly.
He carried the book to a nearby table and began flipping through the pages.
Inside were strange diagrams, magical circles, and complicated symbols. Some pages described spells that looked far more complex than anything he had learned before.
Just then, a calm voice spoke from behind him.
"That book is not something many students notice."
Sun turned around.
One of the senior professors of the university was standing there.
"Professor Elron," Sun greeted politely.
The professor looked at the book in Sun's hands.
"I see you found the Tritopian Arts."
Sun leaned forward with curiosity.
"What is Tritopia, professor?"
Professor Elron sat down slowly.
"Three thousand years ago, there existed a civilization called Tritopia."
"They were considered the most advanced magical society in history."
Sun's eyes widened slightly.
"The most advanced?"
The professor nodded.
"The Tritopians didn't use normal elemental magic like we do today."
"They used something called Sacred Arts."
Sun looked down at the book again.
"What kind of magic is that?"
The professor replied,
"Magic that can affect the mind, the soul, and even the laws of reality."
Sun remained silent for a moment.
"Then why doesn't anyone use it anymore?"
The professor sighed.
"Because no one can."
He tapped the book gently.
"The magical structure of people today cannot handle Tritopian Arts."
"Many great magicians have tried to learn them, but every attempt failed."
He stood up.
"This book remains here only as a historical record."
"No one in this world can use those spells."
After saying that, the professor quietly walked away.
Sun stayed seated for a long time, staring at the ancient book.
Something about it kept pulling his attention.
Finally, he closed the book and whispered softly to himself,
"...Maybe."
That evening, Sun sat outside the dormitory with Yuki.
The sky above the university glowed orange as the sun slowly set.
Yuki was playing with Drago while sitting on the grass.
The little dragon jumped around happily.
Sun placed the ancient book beside him.
Yuki noticed it immediately.
"What's that?"
Sun showed her the cover.
"A book I found in the library."
Yuki leaned closer.
"Tritopian Arts?"
Sun nodded.
He explained everything the professor had told him.
After hearing the explanation, Yuki stretched her arms behind her head.
"So basically, no one can use those spells."
Sun nodded.
"That's what the professor said."
Yuki looked at the strange symbols on the pages.
"They look complicated."
Sun stared at the book quietly and thought that maybe he could use them as he is not from this world.
Then suddenly he stood up.
"I want to try."
Yuki blinked.
"Try what?"
"Learning them."
Yuki stared at him for a moment.
Then she laughed.
"You're serious?"
Sun nodded.
"Someone had to try before they failed."
Yuki shrugged.
"Well... if you're going to try something crazy like this, I guess I'll help."
Sun looked surprised.
"You will?"
Yuki smiled confidently.
"I'm good at reading ancient languages, remember?"
Sun grinned.
"Then let's start."
That night, the two of them sat inside Sun's dorm room.
The table was covered with papers, candles, and magical diagrams.
Yuki slowly translated the ancient words written in the book.
"These symbols are really old," she said while studying the page carefully.
"But I think I understand them."
Whenever Sun didn't understand a symbol, Yuki explained it.
Then Sun tried performing the spell.
Nothing happened.
They tried again.
Still nothing.
But neither of them gave up.
Days passed.
Then weeks.
Sun and Yuki spent nearly all their time studying the Tritopian Arts.
Sometimes they skipped classes.
Sometimes they only attended the most important lectures.
Most of their time was spent practicing inside their room.
Ancient magic circles covered the floor.
Strange symbols were drawn across the walls.
One afternoon, someone knocked on the door.
Sun opened it.
It was Aria.
She looked inside the room and froze.
Books everywhere.
Magical circles glowing on the floor.
"What exactly are you two doing?"
Yuki laughed awkwardly.
"Research."
Sun explained everything about the Tritopian Arts.
Aria listened carefully.
Then she crossed her arms.
"You two are definitely insane."
Sun shrugged.
"Probably."
Aria sighed.
"But this is interesting."
She looked serious.
"But if professors find out about this, you two will be in serious trouble."
Sun nodded.
"That's why this has to stay secret."
Aria agreed.
From that day on, Aria sometimes joined them during their research.
She helped them analyze magical energy patterns.
But most nights, it was still just Sun and Yuki, sitting together and studying the ancient book.
Years passed quietly.
The three friends slowly advanced through the university.
While other students focused on normal magic training, Sun and Yuki continued their secret research.
Many spells failed.
Some experiments even caused explosions.
But slowly... Sun began making progress.
By the time they reached the fifth year, they were now sixteen years old.
Sun had finally managed to learn a few Sacred Arts.
One evening, he prepared to attempt one of the most unusual arts in the book.
Yuki stood across from him inside a glowing magic circle.
"What does this one do?" she asked.
Sun replied,
"It's called Mind Link."
"It permanently connects two minds."
Yuki raised an eyebrow.
"So we can talk without speaking?"
Sun nodded.
"Yes."
"But it only works if both people agree."
Yuki smiled.
"That actually sounds useful."
Sun hesitated for a moment.
"Are you sure?"
Yuki stepped forward into the circle.
"I trust you."
Sun activated the spell.
Ancient Tritopian symbols began glowing across the floor.
Energy filled the room.
Sun carefully spoke the ancient words.
"Sacred Art... Mind Link."
A soft light connected the two of them.
For a moment everything became completely silent.
Then suddenly-
A voice appeared inside Yuki's mind.
Memories.
Strange memories.
Images of a different world.
Tall buildings made of glass.
Cars moving across roads.
Bright lights everywhere.
A life that did not belong to this world.
Yuki's eyes widened in shock.
Her voice echoed inside Sun's mind.
"...Sun?"
Sun froze.
He realized what had happened.
Through the Mind Link, Yuki had seen a part of his memories.
The truth.
That he did not originally belong to this world.
Yuki stared at him.
Her voice trembled slightly inside his mind.
"You... came from another world?"
Sun slowly nodded.
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
Then Yuki smiled softly.
"That explains a lot."
Sun blinked.
"You're not angry?"
Yuki shook her head.
"No."
She laughed lightly.
"That just makes you even more interesting."
Drago fluttered around them happily.
Outside the window, the night sky was filled with stars.
And somewhere in the silence of that night, the forgotten Sacred Arts of Tritopia had truly begun to awaken once again.
