Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wwVHoCDMQ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfEESVfR84
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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw5AShg1Nc
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXfEePq6l2
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vl5QYbtTg
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY69NjNgH6Z
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…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5atuATRnZF
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEtjCgfUsS
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdPzUP7Sii
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hGoaVIdSc
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj467MndBV

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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKcwedjfBO
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrFVICs5Jj
As for these two…
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PNTgaj23Q
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRI75byCSPB
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRfzIBG4cF
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJVzH7DV9p
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6tRYtV3cV
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXSJ7MLNo2
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FUjGXlSMY
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGyA2menCf
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioTnsnm0Xu
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzjxz1sQgV
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHYLqrqmxT
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMmVhxEsLe
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYBJbFsEQt
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjYF4sB8q0
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpk6Lj3tnw
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPdUQEMmJe
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS6LKs8bdO
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfshEl8LCAj
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbv3HsruE4
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AIlJXn82A
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…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJK8aCW4U0
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjvKYMBhqw
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EXPRsFtnj
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GNCsuhnfY
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!”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB2SvlvVTr
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRoDnwkwnf
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfviasyfv0Q
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z5rkEZxWj
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrCT5AdEOg
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsKzXhh5TR
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.

Louise: “Is Tech alright?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBZq9kmshl

Louise: “I-I see…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmImugr34XR

117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQYA0Tw2JY
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxwuAABFsI
Louise: “R-Really? I-I mean, good. I’m sure Tech will recover, right now though I need you to accompany me to town.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcPvi1KntL

Louise: “Huh?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aWki0Yqvt

Louise: “Hey, wait!”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx4FpIrrgd
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrUU46sxWY
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX0kFVTWD2
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaASltOv5RU
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Kf56E6hKm
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi01H2ijbm4
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE92pV1ukd
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRx26zyj8cm
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk7OZSsub3
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiKY0liMiI
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAc3ULHFyJ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfINrBATcoQ
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq2i2GWwfj
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKAwLJ6WjM
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2rY1SIL4g
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXT7WTTmis
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjkzJCwQf8
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiwTWUcA0H
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oMlGEPP3V
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIntbGSCQX
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.

Jake: “Damn it…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxmI0CunSP
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQi8twPhq9
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfHigOz2ky
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbwkelWFys
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj88HCOohc8
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFtmv5puKe
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rgqGdmiGN
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVm0LuZXZl
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFsFtIUKM4
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFDIAREZKi
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sWNNaruG3
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5BYkwQRVZ
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFbFg2rfNB
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89fk1bFQEc
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3eutM7x1K
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPdcWq6DMn
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Ut2vj9hp
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtJg9djpvS
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVFoDRDhtT
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAdlkwyKkf
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClHRFhimRw
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R2awdKkap
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcndKFEXbf
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZopHkH823c
He jumped down and approached the noble.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIOgqTFKwr
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwQmjvDpuE
Jake: “What is it?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N6FOOdWLd
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfWiCTUigo
Zander: “…Something happened.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31kU7hSk1M
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0jgW4oHer
Jake: “Why should I care?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcLf1Sh5Qs
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZuBErbMBF
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCNajAUkt6
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ts0TZFHxZ
Jake: “What are you-”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrOhwopDdD
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m2k5b0btD
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSv1oQYdUH
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JUQQop7Xy
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmfCQQ0HPO
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBjmgTnbNm
Jake: “Explain.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡky28xhq5ex
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECp3VqOGHI
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2eRFpZK95
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vyjj0agQc
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJFxdS08aS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlRNaCuKrU
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7X2DEKEWa
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN3HDsYHSs
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvVH4b7kRO
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtGC3drmdW
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOaBEO5t8m
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyHw66yecT
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuWk1GwpMr
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFjud8o00u
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqIze08cFl
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDidPhd55YK
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8t9thOmCJ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q21J8LFcX
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3b9YDf6rQ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92Np2RHNZF
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQl9PQHM3y
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5AZNKEMcL
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSqyWPxBHQ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmzQTNWCIG
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3Adm1GhuH
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZVDNMIOVp
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVQWF9Cj0m
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE80PortZ0u
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXjdvdktAb
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzFXsaiYM1
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9dB8fXhJR
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8en20BCnF
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXbR5nHcIr
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxvUPAQvvU
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb31iNA5H6z
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBFzKdMqnq
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt81O0xIe8K
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIxtYjexTL
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6LLplCGPM
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2SZYqTSmv
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW0Hh13CNx
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJczhjb78a
Despite that…he kept coming.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxRSAGvBTa
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfoWPsxy9W
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzchQHOO5nQ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFhq1LLS0u
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwamRfcS7rS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7fFinyyyR
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEJ99nCD1i
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL87kqKciXC
“Stop!!”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsLMUC8D9W
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrBCBZEvDn
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?
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskjoa11kXA
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GXmO6ndf7
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhRU4NedCi
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQL2fL5qw4
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSKmKzrNQZ
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hjbWi6ac0
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4UvBHLtwR
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozWVSLRNFm
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ovePAU5da
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeoal7RFmE
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNfLP61tEx
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLF3oqiodTu
“Jake…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUghloGniqk
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfrkUCoYpx
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…
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzrReemKyj
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhnalyvoMo
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK345crz23
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCoP3fM3Oj
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImk63jJ7Rx

Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfYcm8XtrS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t7c2BG2EV
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYvCJsXOVj
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZTKYdjwzS
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMamFhre9y
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6q8T38q8Z
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6PGXvQvlR

“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtqNmINClR
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdPMEtJswz
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXaN08OhEY

117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN9Ozj7a4z
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3hXifaEPO
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQ8RZcEXj3

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.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTUNNpEuYH

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.

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…”

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.

117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8cz9aRTfL
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDETCJjaXn
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.”

117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjYueDqGJd
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenz12C4uUH
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?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyEjbkrtgy

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTDQGanXog
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4twkQMIln
Aeron: “Chaos.”

Siesta: “W-What?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprd5aSsxxi
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8JNgtcA3e
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…”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASo38nzPMw
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj1XiLhUyT
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN51AXilr4e

Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ahJpwLYK3
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp8fKjOgMt
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.

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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksbQbad3rV
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrCnEp8rtc
So he broke off the kiss.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ1M5cljtH

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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe1I1HpiMS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mevaeJvad
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpELESt2GIP

Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFASQYkRlFC
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdkC6Fy4IV
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnmahoVAaB
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9ruh81pbD
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzEaQf0ax0

Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54HohH4bWS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91ANY5rZY5
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZvqdIdGyS
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6KJSxbrHU
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.
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp5A4Hwrdw
117Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFTGolvpO9
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.
