Soon before each of them were cups of fragrant tea, and in the middle of the table adorned with gingerbread and cookies.

Looking at this, Marina suddenly felt that she was very hungry and remembered that they did not have lunch today with all these troubles.

Tea party took no more than half an hour. The girl at that time managed to sneak to consider everyone who was sitting at the table.

The participants were of different, in age and intelligence.

"Interestingly, in addition to these travel between worlds, people gathered here, to unite any interests or not? - she thought lazily.

After tea, she suddenly became sleepy, but the man who laid the tea table quickly removed everything.

Then Oleg gave the floor to the gray-haired, respectable man - Professor of occult Sciences Valentin Ivanovich Beloborodovym.

He immediately began to pour different abstruse scientific terms, trying to explain the essence of what we call parallel worlds. He also tried to explain more or less clearly how the movement between the worlds. However, all this seemed to Marina too complicated, she practically did not understand anything from the Professor's lecture.

Noticing this, Oleg interrupted Valentin Ivanovich and briefly told the essence of this in a few words, noticing, however, that Marina will have to study at the Academy of occult Sciences and undergo training under the guidance of older, more experienced comrades.

  • How long will it take? - asked Marina. - What will I do then? How do I study at University?

"Not all at once, my child," the old lady rejoined the conversation. I think everyone called her Valentina Petrovna. - If everything goes according to plan, study itself will take no more than two weeks. The internship will take a little longer. Maybe a year. Your studies at the University will not be affected in any way. You notice that you have not been in our world for just a few minutes while in the other you have been for a day.

  • Do you think we are doing anything other than our duties in this community? I'll answer that - Yes, we all have either work or school, and we all shared. So don't worry about that.

  • We will start study right from tomorrow, - Valentina Petrovna continued. - I'll give you the first lessons,, I hope you do not mind.- smiled she.

  • No, on the contrary, I'm glad - embarrassed, murmured the girl. - But I still have a lot of questions that I would like to find answers.

  • What? - Oleg again connected to the conversation. - Ask, don't be shy. We are gathered here solely in order to you have not had any issues.

  • I still do not understand what your organization is doing, what goals it pursues. - boldly the beginning Marina.

  • Yes, you said something about the fact that, having unlimited and uncontrolled power over portals to parallel worlds, you can change the historical course of events, which will change the future. It is difficult to deny that this represents a certain danger. But how do you resist?

  • And who are the people from the rival office who are following me? What does that other organization hostile to you do?

  • Why your choice fell on me I, in principle, realized, although so until now and not learned, than I can be useful you. Only if those that will remember and retell you a story I heard in childhood from my grandmother that everyone around felt a little crazy.

After hearing the girl, Oleg slightly darkened and said:

  • I'm afraid the answers to these questions will take a long time. The history of confrontation between two powerful organizations of mages and sorcerers goes back many centuries. It is even unknown when our Bright Academy of light Sciences and the Academy of world domination appeared.

  • The first mention of them belong to the 10-11 century. There is a lot of written evidence about the confrontation between the two academies, which sometimes even turned into wars of different scale. In addition, there is irrefutable evidence that representatives of both academies took part in the largest battles that took place in the world at different times.

  • You probably know about such wars as the Hundred years war, the War of the white and scarlet roses, Napoleon's conquests, the first and second world wars... Magicians and wizards were seen everywhere.

  • Mages of the Academy of world domination has always stood on the side of the aggressors, we are the light mages, helped those to whom they committed the assault.

"We used magic to pass through parallel worlds to get to the right place at the right time unnoticed and unhindered.

  • That's why we needed that artifact, the one that disappeared after your grandmother got married and disappeared from our line of sight.

  • We hope that you will be able to help us at least by remembering those children's stories, you will be able to remember what was so unusual in them that embarrassed ordinary people. Perhaps this will give us a clue as to what the artifact looks like and where it might be.

  • It is extremely important to us to find it the first, not to allow that it fell into hands of our enemies especially as hearings about preparation for military operations near our border reached us.

  • Besides, we hope that you will become a full member of our community and will help us to fight against evil.

  • I think, for you until???? these explanations. During the training, you will learn more about everything that is associated with this problem. - continued Oleg, - in the meantime, allow me to congratulate you on the successful entrance examinations and enrollment in our Academy!

  • Now our hospitable owner of this house will feed us all with a delicious dinner, and then I will take you to a new apartment.

Several guests helped the owner of the house to lay the table for the evening meal. At the table, everyone relaxed, felt at ease and reminded no longer strict examiners and teachers, but close friends, almost relatives.

Here and there was heard a quiet conversation has long been familiar with each other people. With Marina some of them, too, started communicate. Asked questions to it, she in turn asked them that it was interesting to her.

After dinner, all said goodbye to each other and one disappeared into the night.

Marina with Stepan left together with Oleg on the same machine. On the road she thought about what her life has changed dramatically for the last few days.

What lies ahead? What tests she was going to? How are things with Ivan? Did he manage to cope with the bandits?

Questions, questions, questions...

One is comforting. Tomorrow, a new life will begin for her, in which she hopes to find all the answers.

To be continued.

To be continued...
