Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gGs0iMc8B
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIJ33KymLL
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B1pDyAnGZ
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFbu6Eg50a
Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”

Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfzWESFiQ7
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTbxcsQ3wz
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKcXPDJbSe
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWsUhcCkIk
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…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEvyaIwLmK
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQqlsDcHYy
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy3Dgj68Zu
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51Q22RCArr
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs7S3XkVjl
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u3fyfhGK4
Raskreia: “Quest accepted, whatever it is…I won’t fail.”

228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zyuo9SOsh
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKqwzZfJsk
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLtH6r6GGc
As for these two…
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEPYDckZ7H
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vEg0XHhF1
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wlHESgECn
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVOlfeXhLh
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMY9oyk0Z3
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4IQL0RYRJ
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTD4SBZB2X
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPhIHLeRLR
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHtJROZFNb
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4roWdLrlH
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lE37k4Lz1
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgDaTxzDF5
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfr8Rm76P0
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZKGymKMZn
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnl97I1ZzM
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNePMVe8rd
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4940Hz2J6
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjnaaoxA52
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfolQvuJsu
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOck4pY08hT
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…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeA6FvdUBb
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7ko5Nq0Ic
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmNZWemrjE
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1XsQ6QzGP
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!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRTJ2o0aiM
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPlWt3FYPQ
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNfFBYXsqI
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUyRnkFwsZ
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbvp4osFAr
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLpDb5WgJN
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZUuvZ1ETJ
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNGk4hzQt6
Flamma: “What’s up master?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2hUvJTLcq

Louise: “Is Tech alright?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW0xF8MK4y
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoeM2YIfIj
Flamma: “For now…but we need to find some way to break whatever magic has him.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtyJMsnZVF

Louise: “I-I see…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK6qMbVZ6Q
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUqijkY8K9
Flamma: “Yeah, I kind of feel useless right now but I’m still here if you need me.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Lx8w3eiGE
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1y9zGdDSnX
Louise: “R-Really? I-I mean, good. I’m sure Tech will recover, right now though I need you to accompany me to town.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58D8dQMnL0
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiFLRqzdON
Flamma: “Oh, that’s a good idea!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEX4sWs4qX
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBFzw5PPhX
Louise: “Huh?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKs6Oyb0TEU
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiH8lmDnsu
Flamma: “Maybe there could be some healing potions for sell. Let’s go!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBqBaSJJ4H
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MlGO9Ct8B
Louise: “Hey, wait!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7AVaYlg8N
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0NJCe6Eno
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6ikt7tydD
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XWoPYBhVa
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfDdD5Qa5z
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGs9EuqUgJ
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcY01omIuj
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt9EGgV4Oq
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFhCahntDu
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3RksqZw8v
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyCHDsjx20
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSF8baxUlC
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4KVVe56jw
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDNLhonLua
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF11go3G40
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkFMBFIqRN
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXr24UK2BA
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4lZxrofdd
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWD8wgOpnv
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZJKo7dXDt
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDOrBYop3c
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxPRcy4Gb8
Jake: “Damn it…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1nKQjC1Mp
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQhoxB7Iy2
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxFa2ud2RH
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2jv0pP1tz
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwZnxlmfmQ
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiRIEYXfoU
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx3KonFobM
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7HauxEAaP
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6tUqF2X0T
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPT8XMFe9q
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MaWVf789b
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07UY3I6mOc
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPUdSrUqEx
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgs5NmxSuh
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j263wxtIi
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJoIww95sS
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxegalXawu
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq56uLZFGct
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyO1aJ3bta
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIKDhbBIFl
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH69W4WhKE
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLXLHD7TWE
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6QTtqzUH6
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe3mqwcaMm
He jumped down and approached the noble.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoQsYOs68I
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycWT2GSDHU
Jake: “What is it?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5XqNmZwgP
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Xc9Dv6QnF
Zander: “…Something happened.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA5F638N3u
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBJA5PX2e0
Jake: “Why should I care?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTARqqqTwxD
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ksgDt14C9
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7ZGeHSCeg
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTktgFlAcAx
Jake: “What are you-”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3DWvO8UiI
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOqUIRb2ct
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1rV4SLYo4
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVujHkaBze
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymt4YAHNuz
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy7H9AtnzY
Jake: “Explain.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkIMEcjbT5
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy3K9pz8tA
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTYGlYOzfj
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfiiqOEUEa
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4WC0lQuA8
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcvO0eh7mT
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8aYqONwrF
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zQiDWv1JZ
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwzA5R1w0w
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbF5vxaPjpi
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhJs8eTHuR
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7epDVH0TBb
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw96w11b3o
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut89m2bxKL
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RBGuAEZQM
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon1ywE384w
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS3WzUwcfO
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQOL5h03Rz
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8b7p30C1r
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQToNB0Anta
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXheiKHWxW
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYZViYtXBL
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLO7FOVOKt
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcbblKcl79
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUTDZcFmoH
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX1PpBmr1I
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTunhhdeVS8
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHpi6UBQnB
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtX9i3Mk3wf
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVcSq8qItH
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcRpwHQ3Mw
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK3KcWc0rD
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEznuYxGN8
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVbcV2T1ty
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ohdlbpCY0
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ud1j5pkmX
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrME5l2F9mO
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyUCA4coIT
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLbYPUunZo
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZOCyJr6uQ
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tZhdD3b0x
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFJ8WEbSKM
Despite that…he kept coming.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndS2q72atU
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N4nU4ob2r
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQC2Yjhk9G
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAi3GTxjvnH
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamADssCDu2
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwh3lpXSjou
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCkFgRD5h2
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvORokSMCJb
“Stop!!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobckDLk50e
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvlJSo4q3P
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?
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOtdnojbUo
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP0xrQ4mpA
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVHtA2E94x
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhnSQQsaZ5
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7G1qNhsVV
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle1bFdK9hz
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIdWlfxP5n
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLul9Wzy2x
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14CXxAJB0m
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypupOxx9Jm
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dIYo2sR9m
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJgKEZL17d
“Jake…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzxLWS2HjW
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7ppj1sLvI
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…
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EjiHFeTKs
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoIU3CBCVX
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HBAHNQrnM
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAeqtufYgo
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5bD7LDqZW
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfai122Ivj7
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXugC9pfkwr
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo4SSzMYn0
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAighmxbBP
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFzgNZFZAW
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUHOzJbBsU
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wsp2vD2hF
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsRgM8w3T3
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg9JFtGnNk
“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs0VgUefLx
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE7sIAfhO5
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBevevQqNWT
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCb0rwr0W6
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8SHNI9bCi
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQCOsIlQRV
Zander: “Can I escort you back to the school?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrftvzq1Gyj
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4YZjEYZD1
Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dFWudKlJQ
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrYg10qGND
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwyYTSU9np
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyT963Ckag

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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDqqIf5PhN

Flamma: “Yeah, her body is almost as good as mine. So of course I’d-”

Louise: “Y-You…Y-You…perverted dog dragon!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XyGM18nUc

Flamma: “D-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.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeRsbLcwN9
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8YZx9yz1x
Flamma: “Wait Louise, I was only kidding. Trying to lighten the mood you know.”

228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxWF8bhwQ4
Despite thinking those thoughts, Louise can’t completely detach from her first familiar.
Only time will tell how that will backfire.

Aeron: “You are a…quick learner.”

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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX1FPhUP8n
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxLBE9C2kD
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…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WA8n7WZ8h
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS6nn7cZJA
Aeron licks his lips in anticipation.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWM5JAzWkx

Aeron: “Siesta, come here.”

The maid, who is now wearing a form fitting rouge outfit with a boob window, runs up to Aeron.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNqx4otIBx

Aeron puts a ring onto Siesta’s middle finger.

Siesta: “Are you-”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjBO1EWFLw
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuj4nmjJri
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.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4AkeSrhCN
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgKa5eAhfH

Siesta: “Yes!”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAV11nd4P6

Siesta hugged Aeron and nuzzled his chest.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN86SX1vWOA

Siesta: “Thank you, for everything.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdkDWE7mM9

Aeron: “Of course, just make sure to cause as much as suffering to Flamma as possible.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpNGFRQOib

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

Her felt her grip on him tighten.

Siesta: “Because she’s Dovahkiin…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYbKHrY3Sj
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSGdcCCSN1
Aeron: “Yes, still sore that she hid that from you?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0D6ZBWyOT

Siesta: “Yes…”

Aeron held a finger to his chin before smiling.

Aeron: “Want to make a deal with a demon?”

Siesta: “…You’re joking…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBgM1oGykz

Aeron: “I’m undead serious.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YxlBFGhtd

Siesta: “I want revenge Aeron, but I won’t sell my soul for it.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09rBsuQhAn
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQnXlirrg0
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?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLoRTYAsZ7
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV46N2d22h
Siesta: “…Why?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWEFeagYgh
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD4JxLEAL5
Aeron: “What do you mean?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvr4J0gfOC
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSsBttgXgo
Siesta: “Why are you doing this for me? Why go so far?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPer6Zr9we
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigj7CrFhdp
He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07Y81Ynq1L
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYvj97BHS0
Aeron: “Chaos.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPevKGdL5Z
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqaIZubLf9
Siesta: “W-What?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqWHa2t8DO
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdj8niLNvV
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…”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE31hwgGAoW
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCXloulRKh
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgtANvpNB1
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3N4K296f9m
Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkQj3SzECu
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtyKzsmplD
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaEMA0J1Td
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwFFitbJVX
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPidCw9rOsD
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuNTYPRdSP
So he broke off the kiss.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqw8yYWjhk
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZC5Jihz3I
Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbjc83IaUr
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDN71TFIhj
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NgEEdeNju
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc0PX1xcPh
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyCbxpLqBt
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpYHTxw927
Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR0TsoV4jv
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkECrA1BPxq
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmxmotisXe
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLcnnKUXrj
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXz0EnkqUX
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2BiwZstBP
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyNCtj98iu

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JrrJu28CT
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BzABY2cTE
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERnyeQ81YO
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33go7hdSiD
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96L0M3m53J
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpKTEnqb2N
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.
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc04LARWj3
228Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGwyvoVlQJ
Let’s hope I can continue to work on both of these stories. I love them both and I think they both have potential.

Finally, for those shippers out there, thoughts on the hinted at pairings?
