Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbc9CUkNFL0
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSZAzSQdDV
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzoQzwxVm4
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgizYQ91x9V
Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqfOMtNbV6
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8VzVS4ExU
Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgXn85D8t5
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRy2BHdRkU4
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIasjgWAbw
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzR5yq44kA
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…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i5KPQzl3O
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xuquoRRgr
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLlfNNTwQD
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vX0MGCfeH
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVZ91QVD3U
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmNtAVAVqf
Raskreia: “Quest accepted, whatever it is…I won’t fail.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIQPmb0c74
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFXauMp5mG
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjk0xfIlu9
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSP8yMaIoQ
As for these two…
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQSvURW5rZ
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthDMiOufor
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKzPxv1QTL
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMYs8SukdN
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpn39sU9yW
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmoLMHeQze
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR55zTAcpl
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnHGj9Jx1R
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60Rg7kC1yF
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtnbNZb2KW
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNMS9Njcjd
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhrQSZg0or
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuaclbLIBo
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbSt1LP7I4
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgcIooyVVm
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdJhyHGyk4
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3wZFN73KP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hpcCVv4FL
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW5ZcVMMOG
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnkY1R19UG
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…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXZ6lxJOjr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUJtm8Kb4V
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5wWGXkb4j
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVE04nNFsO
Flamma: “I will find the bastard who did this. I won’t let them do to Siesta and Dove what they did to Tech.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwQorD1edt
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyJGDCIXt8
Louise: “Familiar!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTJuwSMHBV
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8scOPQ2VM
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHSrYSosBp
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf05IwwuVp
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhzVzRM8Hx
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ601hclhM6f
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtZiH82HJp
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5PSy2wycF
Flamma: “What’s up master?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnwpNtXhPa
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnccGrpy0ls
Louise: “Is Tech alright?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbmd9kY024
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6yGisvVEa
Flamma: “For now…but we need to find some way to break whatever magic has him.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HXtdgT63I
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqaJbt5c3g
Louise: “I-I see…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC118Edx5ep
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiWI0aFIdx
Flamma: “Yeah, I kind of feel useless right now but I’m still here if you need me.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqetN8u7qbL
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cV3tbUBt7
Louise: “R-Really? I-I mean, good. I’m sure Tech will recover, right now though I need you to accompany me to town.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg1mAUlbxb
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGkkYaH1Y2
Flamma: “Oh, that’s a good idea!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDvrzNB5EX
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLLxRI5Fng
Louise: “Huh?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJUPolayhD
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zjyaYX9NE
Flamma: “Maybe there could be some healing potions for sell. Let’s go!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94jAIyna6N
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceA51LsbKy
Louise: “Hey, wait!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGzdFRp6L8
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAfk4KVHze
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbA03vTmmg
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswH3ssXEF8
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7bvMSmm5p
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPhK0ZTkn6
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmyAfPzBjX
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5IFz2bOlo
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOpi3uDvQg
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8gSrthCyW
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnb1AbebuY
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6c9SnRqEd
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqksAiRkHs
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ofo9Fd2z4
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAqh6CCgyu
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVxow7XKVO
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdxWIC2ik5
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h1nHqW0iZ
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZY5GdWuaE
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQkr5nnfLn
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6F9NVGhg4
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAvTD5pV8K
Jake: “Damn it…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLHSbHMa5e
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahauRH6G9h
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTT67TB4A1
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu893Avclct
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwkUV683Z8
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNJfGaYZvB
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBA5XOry9L
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayANjcCCIt
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrfrMFx31Q
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVpZHsltTZ
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3MfwLSGsr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg4BgvKgTo
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4e1yh7Mmr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUuXJTMIFF
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVij548hY6
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwlTQOANKc
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAs0FoUypJ0
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAIphAt3Ya
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAh9cj5hlez
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNO5f8OBAKP
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4gLVn6LvT
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYms4QqHfSW
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPDVmntmme
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zNa2bsQ4A
He jumped down and approached the noble.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx56a0BIhP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4N4S49AVk
Jake: “What is it?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8lUXMwx4
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOcUIQPAy0
Zander: “…Something happened.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oBlA9JUXW
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL1HNORkzM
Jake: “Why should I care?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDaFO19Gzz
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop9Y6sRvCz
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbDaqXdJ2l
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kt925PEC4
Jake: “What are you-”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnFsxQz83q
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRZPuCWdnR
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWycnSvxBnc
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAukiZe2M1w
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnWipDrr8Z
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mNoUqHvO8
Jake: “Explain.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgFbY6y2Bi
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD75Jlkh9w
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx2iR8rFYm
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4ijruXIWI
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKRGvQjeFK
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUL4iKIocT
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR00zQS1mYf
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvidagWBCu
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPhBLBsc0o
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVkqegbrQ3
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46Q5f5BwGu
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6grvCzySMf
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lo4pAjcXy
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjs0RtUcYi
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiOousdVRX
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TtEztfuBD
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDy9aXqlviw
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iitlQCBBc
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi8K14782C
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5xTg6tlzp
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoSl49Gvb8
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMOIn1ImXl
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxpxgXimCL
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoVdwEvTtl
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6HYYL8dGL
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClmKSPJ81x
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZynUTWw8Wu
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVkMzFYFwk
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoEistwU1j
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEKMOWapnM
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAsdlziKGz
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPnNQ76eyH
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IB8XKoHTk
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9VkoeHqqL
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zrz6ceGno
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiZJdLMw79
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8i7QaZqlWM
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvphUGn05an
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bqmJpoJZ8
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MQEBkbUSQ
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jotG8sylG
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueaX3HZ082
Despite that…he kept coming.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnNgJnKnj5
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKIDehyYkH
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkBOTsEPNW
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxsZP9cmOo
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO4hLBA18U
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtvuKWKAIQ
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BqfVkALzO
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNrAw5O7yE
“Stop!!”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLdBUT0c0n
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzggP74oWhs
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?
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lGVnmHjPx
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufEnJgEsFe
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTASDopt6M
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnNyEOAR1A
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQi7QHFZIP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9db4OjnCWM
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fsDkGmdYB
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKX6pIJ0Tb
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WnFxSv3Rq
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6R6fgXsUT
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsD44cZRiO
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JRS53sAzN
“Jake…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFn22q0UmH
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4aqUMZUOG
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…
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpLbKeSJ9f
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN05EFtAqv
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ170FYY6gNr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdXE6SvON1
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC9dEdmm3O
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGEJG2b3rb
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8wm2aSB0K
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtceckuuE4
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyD6iNAk16
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibGDwMQ22f
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZrcR0jvFI
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWh3PgkmV6B
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ123zVkKCPP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZkmL63TDe
“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnPFJq0YNw
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2LVdCdmZC
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaDM9r3JEE
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkR5sEXGVz
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrpxdFslV7
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrnz3ThoTL
Zander: “Can I escort you back to the school?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiaKaFcxPy
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡettLeWryqF
Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bxOD8auL8
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuutHQJudSY
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyhHkRiGD0
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2grRE0uWO
Zander: “Good grief…”

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.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsObcsF6LOE
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj4wGkHL2n

213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTcmmg1DxG
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHsV1Rx5vI
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX8FIvJaNV
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…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19qyzr7Vsp
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmAxwaQDj4
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.

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.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLNPy3cnwT

213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFKGcLkBZh

Her felt her grip on him tighten.

213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22okjpS0Rm
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNrIroPaGV

Siesta: “I want revenge Aeron, but I won’t sell my soul for it.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZxTPtiPgM
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHdOLwbizq
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?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1GML6XNvF
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRj80K8DkF
Siesta: “…Why?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdyTbPmKCt

Aeron: “What do you mean?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskN2iaZHSn

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPPEXpDjyb
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26lE4eaV8p
Aeron: “Chaos.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWR7sxjm5x

Siesta: “W-What?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8JFNQxPaP
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnrKy2YloW
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…”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU5KMO9f0A
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9VOEkI8Tc
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvRHqREfB7
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeBUsXpGEo
Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqCUKloixM
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7ic1hzEcv
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLqjgfyYQh
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9emitdKnLW
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c4zxBPpWc
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0tMZ0RTU0
So he broke off the kiss.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelU3tTcXPh
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5si2pjuiJ
Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7Da1qzor0
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3DUJhCkvv
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsmASQlYma
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ydNWhMoOm
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTUNKSFlbx
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr6wuFj1Dn
Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFijuJ9CSjr
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNvpIfL0Sj
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJEus0m1MR
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJuYlMZ1CN
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFo6zdk9Ev
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR1LhiufZz
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrieItktGT
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXP2AR7Zd9
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdORFPyzdd
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdncjWGjbs
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0RJlg7HAG
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE1cKMEzyI
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.
213Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkahJs7k83

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