Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEGgld9CPS
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.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyp5yc9g2b
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByYNQVom86
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j6Zmd3BQT
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y4veb7lzA
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…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lftC5Ybgp
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0JBoptr1G
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC2P9S7pLP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FVhJeMl7J
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC16Gd7wknS

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

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W21zif085
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWghZ7Dfr59
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevoJPukw0J
As for these two…
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8YbCWWfBY
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9l4okTdmj
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOfxIbv8DD
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQXKixEb4D
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8f4GUPlZP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecshEUoLJG
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSoSgF6yTd
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAaZi8HbMS
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIJ1jAvxNR
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNRidTT1eU
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEEFJHqbUW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFtRwquPCH
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMDDTOuO1w
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW2bEOk3hP
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uP6ZRUTKw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBx75I6EeV
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6t7pIKaPFA
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCAfNChWa5
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVJRTS1LJs
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDuKm3fIK7
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…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JXXfiD2GK
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpb195FI2b5
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwNnbV0sJX
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZskDjY4oHW
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!”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5SdDVwD4t
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxRKl8Xi1c
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdjg4WbRZD
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEer8ql3r4
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuiLIU7L9N
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2TqLySzuZ
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLXUsDLF8G

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7E1a7OHXT

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw7WaLv4JD

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS6HjVL7DA

Louise: “Huh?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hIbGMGPRl
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQBrOZk83q

Louise: “Hey, wait!”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbYkKam4iR
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJxSgYwEMm
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UBEnrZa7J
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgV7eSVA23
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv0A82MWhu
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfkV8SvOuL
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKihGnCRmJ
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnX66N9NJA
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWf1ID1w5sM
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNyZ5HvMLu
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1guTXT1sc8
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyN4CVI2yQw
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorTBEb1qvz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHbDr1TFaj
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjhmoZdtmB
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOsC84Khqs
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMLVZ37xYG
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH9XW7KOv0
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMqa9eNfHi
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXR8ZHzVVa
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdK3BrLM1D

Jake: “Damn it…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnxKcYQH78
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyns1i82ULf
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeR3yowUHP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTif3ao2VXY
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgSHGapdYF
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52m1x83iPp
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YYXWrlK3b
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjXbM0zNyX
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7SmkHeZmu
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyJfVIsI8f
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEnAFZKOsS
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj76zh80ST
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dZ7MtY34f
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoQkHm5XKh
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv40Fu4Ibq
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNnGjrNlKr
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP228iyydZU
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4bewIHX9x
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjAXEc4gkM
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHlqxaUa0b
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3JrYK8Iq3
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfHgrt5hCu
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f7U4aqqVm
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3quTjt76n
He jumped down and approached the noble.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZMfuFHt26
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvg9EBDsM8
Jake: “What is it?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj3neXqelQ
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUlFMxEzsH
Zander: “…Something happened.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtufowQNM1c
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSfj0Srhsc
Jake: “Why should I care?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8DeasPF1F
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV1w9NFRIF
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzBQKlq6xu
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT6nKxKopm
Jake: “What are you-”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0xDy0aS4d
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJBoa6jREx
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGjpjKmEBM
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7vyOaLnrH
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt5CuYFdfW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ839mK3SaBM
Jake: “Explain.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdk9MqCT1t
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVSEuh7wtw
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8MrWoDBZF
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNPPrCWfx3
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQFruY4rPf
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0vhhtLdFK
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyghig1jbjw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKu3qfDAXV
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLla6ALZg0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDVnSLJOgV
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vhYB69JAw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7B8pQpz2d
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQqOjXyC48
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgsbJn6rmh
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdGoRlVyOD
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvenVJgscHI
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23IfzXR2Dq
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P3ROj1t9Z
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLscHBSIjS
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhUGf4ZnhM
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjmH1vqc5m
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLX9IddVxT
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGOf9FyUXR
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKEtY1hrYy
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PVA3wBBRe
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDjey2ykB0
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4BMcwSgwK
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVvzS80x6k
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmnccVyzHV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRCsb5HQsv
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wODLaxbeX
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd85GP4kt7
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdiAvMH5s1
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT6jJjlsgi
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPgnWOcN1j
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkne7ZGYoL
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6g1oGXKbk
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwfwof6nOm
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiQCd33Xp8
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFpN1fRDJh
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLI5hKqQ88
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiro9V5b80r
Despite that…he kept coming.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOdT8Il3Bn
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQj196jYrl
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE21A9OAegF
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtiAhwFlsM
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkNQSVNXv0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfXDlCia6I
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6aWMYrlSz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80JWwWKBbr
“Stop!!”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4dDor23dp
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnfPmVTTo1
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?
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkymsfIYBu
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcmtnM6r8T
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtals1e868S
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTZZz0iCXw
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFEOJ7nTnV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9ZMNwyDt7
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXvJ8ejyPW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIZr3l492J
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoj6XzSKoh
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DatroLAJ3
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0dirkCPYz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd6Ytl9854
“Jake…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRzS1fTUOz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1SKJ6pOpm
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…
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡti8bNfYgXa
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLggYlcinEO
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJDTpmp1wa
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaicO4D9pc
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44gbkvnGi5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQDWd9orpy
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u1WriHX4r
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdskoBxdyDm
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CcGsoWk3I
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbIRz5Oo57
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQvnHL6tfi
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaK7t7d1Ar
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRPMd5LBys

“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k7kKYaxxi
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6xySlwQBc
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw19MRxSiZh

Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgB22Nhd4g

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oiEfzXPH1

Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQqfPtdiTN
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0IR9swco4
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.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu7apaDaSv

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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnmP66XoG5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKXUIUpmAq
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…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2afF2ZArQ
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR0r6rJA2D
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-”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6qvT4lta0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVFriSPkI6
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.”

174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PdHb3jUj0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCDY79keeY
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?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIdbF7EXXl
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu7zfYYKzC
Siesta: “…Why?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCWiZxTu3U

Aeron: “What do you mean?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVKtH68rqi

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqatneWoFt7
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUmKNK4TTp
Aeron: “Chaos.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriF1jUld5g

Siesta: “W-What?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9vhyfuD7s
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCM4ubuf0l
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…”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXRv88yjuK
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVekEt1W7I0
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdwR5OQOHx
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuAMCTgTMU
Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeJAlzgb6C
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1fsfUNGUp
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvvi0NNRiV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8NBf6ZwTl
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0KXmZnqOV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkgk6zyKgD
So he broke off the kiss.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MGlo6szOW

Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s8QbfNnQk
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubE2WCH1zL
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tCmnIOU47
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsVz1pEuCm
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38Zf6Jn2Mr
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnsVTWDnNI
Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZncTHgcC5T
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfnketGjkc
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r2XojYRn8
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz47r6IJhIc
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6HzLap8Fx
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkSzlLKOqn
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoRn6Mt08r
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtVlbM6AQc
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU17pJjZD6
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpe19s2iSl
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt36NfrQglU
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4DvKCKiRO
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.
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUkBqdHfbm

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