Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUKUibsFyf
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps6VgI1OiX
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67fQxwzoGU
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDZzm8wzfY
Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”

Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSCDSk68CH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqItWxupVk
Raskreia looks down and notices that his body is being consumed by shadows. She doesn’t notice Jace taking out a strange glowing purple orb.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXInpG2YGe
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYSJ2162Iv
Jace: “Everything you need to know and use is in this orb. I trust you and the others will become powerful enough to unseal it. If not…then this gambit failed…forgive me…everyone…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ686X0JlnhS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzbWMwQvEF
Raskreia grabs the orb right before the darkness fully takes the last living remnant of ages long past. Raskreia stares into the empty for a few minutes before turning her gaze back to the sky.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4whQKYkXX
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXW8Xc781n
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmfOvkL99n
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ805Z1IB00H
Raskreia: “Quest accepted, whatever it is…I won’t fail.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf5WbT0ASN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4kGBfKZ6q
Flamma and Zander exited Tech base with tense masks, still grappling with the current situation. Dove decided to stay with Tech and help Doctor in anyway she can.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp2Wl7dunP
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQhtCXFALW
As for these two…
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4RjBHpAbq
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxB1w4UVSpr
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SrygEJuxw
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYEc6J7bfr
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpluF5kZ1i
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegOeknwTsw
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eCuI9C0Wm
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPgcKQheor
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhjlY6Y5xt
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSbGRJZKIV
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuJsqSKEt0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugfwSzHtI6
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKWEfkuK6G
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxpR3xJrZL
The healers of this world aren’t as strong as Dove and probably won’t be able to help. Raskreia is gone and she is no closer to figuring out who could have done this.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZeeopLNJp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENdNKe4U4G
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsezGahmFC6
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp6LsbRtlk
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHTZSGMYii
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58SbTK5CeF
Flamma: “Damn it! I was too careless. I would have never made this mistake before. I would have burned everything in the area if there was a chance of an enemy lurking around. But…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t29WrsFHr
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i4GfKqYk3
That could have hurt Siesta and she couldn’t let that happen. Hasn’t been long but she has already grown attached to Dove and Siesta. The thought of them being hurt was…painful.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS3kvvxywp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy8hoHkElW
Flamma: “I will find the bastard who did this. I won’t let them do to Siesta and Dove what they did to Tech.”

Louise: “Familiar!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOyLkJ2Pgt
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHab1sipUFi
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8E0112lzL
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDBoBNfhJ5
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP71gwUILK
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYupHITw1p
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW8t17ZwZ2
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLaPukFvBC
Flamma: “What’s up master?”

Louise: “Is Tech alright?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzFHYTyUyX

Louise: “I-I see…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGJmkLcZk0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9qBxchYdZ

375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o9yutW9Kl
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmkMoSFyAr
Louise: “R-Really? I-I mean, good. I’m sure Tech will recover, right now though I need you to accompany me to town.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHxB2HqABE
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wmMc5wlRK

375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcVpLdR5A4

Louise: “Huh?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQPumnMfB0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5ecFFrPGJ
Flamma: “Maybe there could be some healing potions for sell. Let’s go!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRofwdF9n
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUI1VrKSEP
Louise: “Hey, wait!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcb7f7jgxe
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZnPofCBKv
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNbonpOsO7
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBTA7B7LNm
The past few days have been exciting and terrifying for Sylphid. The new familiars were incredible and unique. Yeah, some scared her on an instinctual level.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGPwaxNx6i
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCoGNK3iJj
Flamma now made sense, she’s a dragon of a higher order. Same with Zander and Dovahkiin. Dove was still a mystery though. But her focus has always been on one.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWW2e3AQq4
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8KUQnuStf
Despite her master’s friend’s warnings, she would keep on eye on that particular familiar. During free time, when she would usually be with Tabitha, she would spy on Jake.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDf00u0YhL
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5Kjlq1Xvt
Out of all the new familiars, he was the most interesting to her. Through his hard exterior, Sylphid could see Jake’s more vulnerable side. Especially during times like this, when he would just look at the sky.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d1FEnFHxi
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqxxBkgs86
There was longing, worry and pain in those eyes. Pain that would turn to contained fury if she got too close to him. She could tell he is inching to unleash violence on something. Anything to distract from his pain.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqohoKNsKP
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWyZaByURq
She watched as Jake’s face contorted from solemn, to enraged, to solemn again. What could be going on in his head she wondered. She even swore she saw tears but it was most likely her imagination.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfidzIm4og
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQZz5f5Ocm
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTlCPgqwzd
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eKpwP3QzF
But she thought better of it. All she could do is be a constant friendly presence for him. She knew he could sense her and was grateful he allows her to be there, even at a far distance. But she wishes she could do more for this tortured soul.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNshrLiN1F
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy2SRqQMjU
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpyld8c3BZ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lAgfqnZCY
Jake: “Damn it…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEYhZPK7b1
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0mgbuRMH1
Brooding once again, waiting for some good news from Raskreia. He wanted to go home and fix his mistakes. Despite what other might say, in his mind, everything that happened in New York was his fault.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LDOHe544W
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTFLjHlkq0
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDNTzihlJZ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGthv2VwoG
He lifted up his hand and stared a hole into it. He can see what he is even now. Nothing but a writhing mass of flesh, a living virus. A plague on the world, a bringer of nothing but death and sorrow.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZRsLnVow3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqOOO2WwoW
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSHNG3Mo3N
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMr8OrcIQd
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mG6igJ39I
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBQjTt3B4B
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveAnoOYhl2
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPmInrig9u
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnhr6NhSRp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOQGEFvhIS
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFbftbV6DT
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AHy0v2Y2U
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z0YEUtmrp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlfM4KZEhV
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnKsVt9Wok
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ4mnUAXwz
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GkAPZ5lYc
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMLPxQy4yG
He jumped down and approached the noble.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7ApjDbHfS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTintTEyoDH
Jake: “What is it?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMFgRK7RNC
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfI1Sa5Ywc
Zander: “…Something happened.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWdbjDiscJ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHFxIWI3aJ
Jake: “Why should I care?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdlbQiiH8T
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw3MjKRx5E
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv3fVH8I5T
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNh9kjsNGbw
Jake: “What are you-”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iKbkVtTrw
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5G5heXWo4
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDgFzZDymY
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NsRdyqgFp
Instantly, every living thing in the area felt the pressure of a castle on their backs. Some even died from fear due to the killing intent.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnMGUkWeQ8
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl0laFj9rO
Jake: “Explain.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXRgqZBiS3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKXDhcSsUE
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicyihd5lb7
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28QwIoUz69
The one thing, THE ONLY THING, keeping Jake on a leash was the promise with Raskreia. The fact that he could go home one day. But that…was gone now.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKnUCMWq4R
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoGxmCgLZl
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTtAXP7BVW
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYc2vBPqNvI
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYss4MhQGGw
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDHQRyOGTh
An explosion of force erupted from the blow Jake threw, a blow Zander blocked. Regardless, it had enough force to at least push Zander back.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS9GtLFlmO
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar5Ev2iZxG
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZjkCVKYV7
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSwbSLtdsU
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jnss5ApVm
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryd4S8ojfL
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIvzQdZ39v
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZKqoNOHjB
Jake transformed his other hand into voracious claws and slashed across Zander’s chest who dodged back and countered with a fire blast aimed at Jake’s face.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3WIUZSLmq
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfDqhS7iBJ
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YKNJvwojk
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy2cUnoxqr
Zander could only barely dodge. He didn’t have time to use a spell or take out a weapon, not without risking it. So instead, he waited for the perfect moment to teleport to the sky.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7UnXodiY3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHYoZtkZ8b
Just as Jake looked up, Zander equipped his staff and rained down a torrent of magical fire. Jake quickly dodged the blasts, zagging through the storm until he made it to a tree.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jj6qjqjhh
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND8KqyJSim
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EdLGiNGvF
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW52Vkcd91v
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0LMesllzi
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MVGfrZZh7
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bssQ3RO5m
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBHEdUddW7
But while in the tailspin, he unleashed a thin white magical slash that bisected Jake. Jake ignored the gasp in the distance and regenerated the damage before turning his hands into hammers. Using gravity, he sent himself hurling towards the now grounded Zander.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb8QiMaBSa
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5lWvHto7v
Zander caught the blow with a magical shield, but the blow was heavy enough to crack it. In his rage, Jake began to hammer the shield causing the cracks to spreed.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUGXL6dBRs
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv3SFSqJXI
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo4F2e3gYK
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh2ypavCrV
That finally got Jake to scream in pain but Zander wasn’t done. He knew he would just regenerate, he needed to cripple him enough to stop any resistance.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPWkcbcLk1
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDDus3Osc7
So he waved his hands in a mesmerizing form that summoned storm clouds above. Then with a downward chop, red lightning cracked from above and struck Jake’s still smolder body repeatedly.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdMPE5LsKp
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fx2tAAe2w
Despite that…he kept coming.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHIHavvMdj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sCQERsQm5
Past the screams, past the pain, Jake took a step towards Zander, and another. Even when his body was going through the cycle of breaking down and regenerating, he still formed a blade eager for blood.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNrmlM4PQW
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Bp41b54tU
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnjqgX3J55
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWw0Wi38ay
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreVaepUcI4
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QV1lo3K99
“Stop!!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXbxqAmN3g
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWOrsFab14
Suddenly, the flame went out and the storm clouds passed. The agony simmered to a dull pain as he regenerated the damaged. In its place was a warm sensation, some girl was…hugging him? Getting in the way of the storm that was called against him?
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfHvt2aiPV
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFcgLUvVST
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu1hgbucaN
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTEn9nZmgK
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrgRfz48uU
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjD3sFSMSg
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoVeDHUVMH
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7QDyUY7gt
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswe5eCk2ck
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cmRFiv7kR
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32lQ5FmCy1
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvK1uVUdXz
“Jake…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwlDr9JRpa
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG14zPcjFho
The gentle voice, however, broke through the haze and reached the person Jake once was. It was a voice that sounded so helpless and innocent. Something he once was…
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwRf9v3lyb
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilUj1BtHMu
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg3Zo7Vbsi
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfooWpg9Za
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FJL1dLZDQ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINP5MQcmAG
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYSkyAvTw7
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZDw0bwWQJ
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UXaBt7Nfr
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreaB4vcr7q
At that moment, he felt someone grab his hand gently. It was that familiar blue haired girl again. She looked at him with…something. Whatever it was it only made him confused. So he pulled away and disappeared deeper into the forest.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9tMXcxNJ4
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57Ks2ktPSl
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakwG35hFvw
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR0pt46fc7
“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFH8AAsLQS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18M6RWAO5Q
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxkRtAV90T
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGCd6PiuVQ
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIUTEFw70U

Zander: “Can I escort you back to the school?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Trl1liGpJ

Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh3lx10UBt
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9q0YHOgBn
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlMAOJLBbQ

No matter what, Louise just can’t see Flamma as someone who would do that to Siesta. Seeing Flamma explore the town and the markets like some normal woman only confused her more.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiCVWUqgW6

Louise: “Y-You…Y-You…perverted dog dragon!”

Louise turned her back on Flamma and started walking back to the school, just in time to wipe her eyes clean of any tears.

Flamma: “Damn it, way to go Flamma. Try to lighten the mood but just end up making her mad.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AMUr3bWiI
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEF8BBDOtu
Flamma: “Wait Louise, I was only kidding. Trying to lighten the mood you know.”

375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJU34DeyGzi
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFoqE33BcM
Despite thinking those thoughts, Louise can’t completely detach from her first familiar.
Only time will tell how that will backfire.

375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8rJT5a306
Right before him was Siesta who successfully used the level 2 Aganazzar's Scorcher spell, nearly causing a forest fire. And she only just started learning today.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcrNpWNXvK
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiWbbz0ejA
Aeron: “I wonder if more people here have potential like this. Maybe I can steal Kirche from Zander. If I get her, I may get Tabitha too. If some maid can get this strong…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5EX7eHOS3
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p1kglmeMS
Aeron licks his lips in anticipation.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hzOHaoSh3

Aeron: “Siesta, come here.”

The maid, who is now wearing a form fitting rouge outfit with a boob window, runs up to Aeron.

Siesta: “Are you-”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJI0D9axDZ
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUExSJz0uu
Aeron: “You would like that wouldn’t you? But no, this is a ring of sustenance. Wear it for 7 days and you’ll never have to eat, drink or sleep again.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk2BjVTjfY
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5h2ClOKIk

Siesta: “Yes!”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xz7uITmZh

Siesta hugged Aeron and nuzzled his chest.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XQkcjfnjD

Siesta: “Thank you, for everything.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo3ebRw4Zk

Aeron: “Of course, just make sure to cause as much as suffering to Flamma as possible.”

Her felt her grip on him tighten.

375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPo9yZUQKW
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dvDK3F37H
Aeron: “Yes, still sore that she hid that from you?”

Siesta: “Yes…”

Aeron held a finger to his chin before smiling.

Siesta: “…You’re joking…”

Aeron: “I’m undead serious.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHs7Fb7OU7

Siesta: “I want revenge Aeron, but I won’t sell my soul for it.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9wzx40ylM
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjAr4MhZGa
Aeron: “Don’t worry. Yes, the usual pay is the contractor’s soul, but it’s not the only way. In short, I will pay your price. You will become a warlock and the demon will have my services in…six battles of his own choosing, is that acceptable?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknEg3znXpx
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcXPEcG7PK
Siesta: “…Why?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaU3Dvhh6A

Aeron: “What do you mean?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrupN2zKbSM

Siesta: “Why are you doing this for me? Why go so far?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMyfDCfrfx
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35SQS09ukL
He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKR0Gy6BdP
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7mQzsJTcH
Aeron: “Chaos.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqlGWIAVjk

Siesta: “W-What?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7kgrHg94O
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFiiW7AzUB
Aeron: “I love breaking order, and traditions. By turning you, some maid, into a powerful mage I’m giving a rather big finger to the sorcerers of this land. Also…”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ6sHSNTFj
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl97uvu70Tp
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitgXP8XYCO
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XrCWPFRqA
Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pFlOLDmQe
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMj8HtP5qjT
That did it. Siesta grabbed his head smashed her lips onto his. Aeron was tempted to take her there. The thought of her finding out that the person she gave her real first time to was the one who caused this madness was intoxicating.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKw07mAVYk
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwk9rvlB87
Yeah, his second reason for doing things is causing pain and the chance to kill. Because why not if it’s fun and pleasurable? But this shot of pleasure will have to wait, he doesn’t have much time.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF48x4SC5SD
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBwFty4n8d
So he broke off the kiss.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s9gEfbdKf
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmrBWKY32g
Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu8BPSCQof
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwi5k7BOy1
With a nod, Aeron went to work. It took half an hour till he prepared the summoning circle and the binding runes. But when went to cast the spell…nothing happened.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZoFhp1Zs7
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F3MwWtVJ7
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSmnCd0PvS
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsXenYhWuG
Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwldeIT0HK0
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1JyNS5Rqv
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGOgwOwnTx
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeIXVOwGtG
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUAxrNmnCW
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7VVk7fuYn
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVNNBgER5S
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZhSx8A402
I am ashamed. I’ll fix them one day but right now I’d rather focus on making new content. Hopefully I did better this time.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8m4yRxeqx
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyCL7M8P5y
Anyway, I’m excited to know what you thought about this new batch of chapters. Especially the MTG connection, the more serious tone and how evil Aeron is.
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0llWqRElf
375Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VsSFCP9mP
I bet you really want him dead now. It’s only going to get crazier from here. If time allows of course, I make no promises because life makes none.

But if you want more from me, I would encourage you to check out my other fanfic project. I published it in honor of Boku no Hero ending. When one dies, another raises.

Let’s hope I can continue to work on both of these stories. I love them both and I think they both have potential.
