Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mYBXYIdRK
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTQXLg8KUS
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.

Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”

Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW40O427wX
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83ntdZ1iu9
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs3aHGA7PS
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sY2JqpXso
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…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD9ntCZWw1
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFU8Ruik67
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukkSRYvve7
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9FICIyVLd
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGnZU3gwjP

Raskreia: “Quest accepted, whatever it is…I won’t fail.”

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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7mchw36Mi
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzloMZIpzcX
As for these two…
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirZIp0knnD
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGkp57vDvw
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24957w5kcV
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPItf0rruv
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkdiVG59EE
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrhrOssbZ9
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnrPtZDB6q
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0xUG0Zztq
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KrW9kbPLu
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1WNCuxMuV
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSC67dvTNs
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22c1gXKY0j
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTN2zau6d2
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniHk8ZqEvA
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR08BJNxIg
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8aeeD5o1i
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN9GUaaUV6
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95fLP6zoN4
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbUNsMp61e
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDzcgvsUl9
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…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2YengzruS
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FFl48tIDn
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpGzJ7MFzV
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24qQO9IJEZ
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!”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY4DY7sO08
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bb5DfHbjv
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI4IVAFSuO
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwXZsDsfZa
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPXusoil97
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnA0LpQ6w2
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxkIi1E4P0

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgkzWckvZM

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8itBwagqPk

Louise: “Hey, wait!”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBKuEJYygl
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWzlBHHT1n
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpPyxCffjM
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDVyHAKFWm
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1EEmLqSCZ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIXs4DkodR
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hBqDV8NhF
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9DzdRDRo9
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HFgWbkcHe
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQrpa9vtxE
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqvZuwv4rg
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmz0xpdYMC
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmYAkJG10e
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGzW7EwW30
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO15PiGKvLi
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9CJu0BF4U
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoIuDpzCFA
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL43BdOZheT
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Trmz9Ah1D
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r7bRO1s85
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2ui40s0cc

Jake: “Damn it…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwBDiAM61e
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAkotH8vHn
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡge4Nbfkp1s
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ftSjAuQ9t
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMoqgyaibR
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kFzoadD8y
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdyEHR43jR
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoDf1cMluj
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEZFc1tpwc
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpP8wafPVw
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJbgqgcVog
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rXonXVjMn
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7nVi4RHBi
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYXJmaDfso
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4KKXcCjhZ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjPKEycKzY
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpi7Fw5Tk8
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFPp458yV9
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w5QerYeiv
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J66JqdF69
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6kXwo9Zuj
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZjh7ZJvau
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cxNfqPdIE
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EEk5f2HEu
He jumped down and approached the noble.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTNBbzQNKR
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWImzwmtsRn
Jake: “What is it?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfw6S6nMker
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6bshqAMUP
Zander: “…Something happened.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx9gcn41R6
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AJaSk0uLa
Jake: “Why should I care?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN93WOQhN2N
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuhPOeRVHn
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9F8wEgOHg
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LvmEphcqJ
Jake: “What are you-”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SHAFHrFwV
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv6Fy0Ngq3
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡax8Vc4J75C
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwICTZQeZ8l
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK5qTAEHJk
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zGjL8SNWf
Jake: “Explain.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwt63WKJs1
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz9AmEmBTA
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R5wNFogCw
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTrH1FTQPm
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KRWQ4b5Cz
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0KghpRHZv
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2noqCe9j5z
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAXGWiDA9j
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fuJAJeOZm
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSOzMFN1KA
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkDa0PgdXL
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTDYsJp59N
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqhQkagPGh
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy4tgUQubA
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWsWBg7YlH
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq0S05fljG
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSVJ9J9VTS
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZW55hG24X
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ZpQnSyPJ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzu0IyJ3k6
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNU4pELG8l
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMxladqPAS
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaMuYtuip9
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVzEICqSOF
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyocgr0aeD
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6APvw33qZ
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDFW25jduB
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGRaeexItk
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtozZ9Y5hm
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcRFkFctYG
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX7WYRHkK9
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡderMXmiDb8
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lXtpTEJRO
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzIcIcaaCO
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7icSE6rC5
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUPkjvnf1r
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItHNBgveOM
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc7MVuxd07
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPPpzUeqEx
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihgsTj6LZp
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHb1ZDFNS0
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF4aKuZxQ6
Despite that…he kept coming.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHg3ybuWsh
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqzVKeGDaf
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiCRXdxUiW
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZGM012ujt
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMxaMex8qQ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46O3feN7xm
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHVT5hCEfA
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOkFxK1zXx
“Stop!!”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvU07KHiEY
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw93saH5g1Y
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?
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEUf7lUctH
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmn6vRY6CY
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9z7xvCqyB
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRtaBRNSw4
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2joD2dS0RW
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q9kEsgNhC
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDs2Nx1VL6
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVQruR9kOq
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDqy5Nbulu
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu27zJ7FhKG
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSWAwJgNgd
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKnTL0Wf6Q
“Jake…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSVDxSPENz
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQEUBt7CDw
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…
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOB2ob6Yr3
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouFLQJwx2f
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwVmpsD4o0
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC7phreWXw
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NCLvOiofU
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU92p5nGZPD
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKZIuELPXA
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEwaMeBopO
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNeUkywelH
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi2s8G8AWu
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTtc2xbeBV
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1JOC8nPE2
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVBncgDnN4
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuL1SIlXfC
“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFFFwawEJz
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy8pK27BnV
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfW2vw330o
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2K5XvcOg3o
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQAetS9f65

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdGYTBw7HE

Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKO1Szgysv
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd3WCsHVT7
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.

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.

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.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ645IcIkOIb
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygb1DYMerp
Flamma: “Wait Louise, I was only kidding. Trying to lighten the mood you know.”

Despite thinking those thoughts, Louise can’t completely detach from her first familiar.
Only time will tell how that will backfire.

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.

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuSJYr6LbG
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…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJWgxvL9bT
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldYwddT57O
Aeron licks his lips in anticipation.

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

Siesta: “Are you-”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLAWViOBN0
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenYNp6fWEZ
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.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBK8LHKG42

Siesta: “Thank you, for everything.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuMpY997rQ

Aeron: “Of course, just make sure to cause as much as suffering to Flamma as possible.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVp9K6QgIT

Siesta: “…Of course. Can I…finish off Tech.”

Her felt her grip on him tighten.

Siesta: “Because she’s Dovahkiin…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMRHIpZKZB
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cP3TiUOLp
Aeron: “Yes, still sore that she hid that from you?”

Siesta: “Yes…”

Aeron held a finger to his chin before smiling.

177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeT8ZbqoFN
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqL0qF18Ew
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?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShpaW6tD1p
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlEn37eLrz
Siesta: “…Why?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcALMxqOvW

Aeron: “What do you mean?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WO2RgbUZi

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1SiYyfOEj
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQqzLOCo1e
Aeron: “Chaos.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKv3iqt9Sz

Siesta: “W-What?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZLcuTujTW
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4gotePWPs
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…”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRpID8kawv
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlOHvR5V50
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaunkQESLsW
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRPloVzPKZ
Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1VgHZ9whL
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fSMHPP5h9
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM82xXOSH9p
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXqQB5nKAl
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4tbaM54a9
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcAlQcaDCI
So he broke off the kiss.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXe1c7d0WY
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfABeFo4nd
Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVUpvJClDu
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgpBF4fOjC
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfofjfHQiAl
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu65rsw16hg
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI4OsfC42O
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTBOlWN3iu
Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CKfDwOU8f
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgyOn8LLXj
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnT1WFYJNwZ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCWhRBvsJO
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTAAEuA1xH
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b8bLaseBK
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuZlxETNeV
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB3TVyiThf
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84pbpY3rKQ
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09GyXTxvg2
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjAmR9LzzD
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC9wx6bj7Z
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.
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbe29xGrHl
177Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65NLIQX5nA
Let’s hope I can continue to work on both of these stories. I love them both and I think they both have potential.
