Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS2uaMwbZP
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gm401vMo2
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDfLEZwPDr
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQvFviMwiJ
Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”

Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGmkEHKzgp
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEjcKHEMAe
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws7tWqdqe2
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPGPxUouGN
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…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFxx0WMJ5f
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gL094K48B
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1aF31c377
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuZFdjC5CM
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJe4TXqLOK
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJy958wQqJ
Raskreia: “Quest accepted, whatever it is…I won’t fail.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9ZtvWLAZz
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJUSiRnh7B
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X3BDtYZsJ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIc7vWL2A7
As for these two…
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNpJMNe51B
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8HVv5LRcr
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4arDQA86W
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBvSsJezDr
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSlwWhm7S1
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRRfUaLU7n
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZxiO6DUh3
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEXmNQMXAx
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJaZe3mqKd
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2GCvMEJCN
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr6QtrIbFh
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnL4eeutz9
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwXSvSPFcX
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwye2bmroQ
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtLKWuLBIz
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ8T1XPgGf
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFHZmoRkdV
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxWnhe5xLQ
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuqHSujgYK
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AO9Lbqdba
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…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI1VT0yUtP
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZBtEMiujG
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXF2KghI0jq
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuomvmYIq1
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!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oewexs3d6
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0IGdt20Xy
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWhqXLuk0L
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICrhZEAarJ
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAhpd30n9K
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJyaPD6VLk
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi81BVA8S2
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkgs8k4n5k
Flamma: “What’s up master?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPerYOdkil4

Louise: “Is Tech alright?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolNMlIjkbt
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHJUZwwfhe
Flamma: “For now…but we need to find some way to break whatever magic has him.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb7XWbxBJc
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7hB1Adir8
Louise: “I-I see…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcDnKq9wNK
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrRx3EHez6
Flamma: “Yeah, I kind of feel useless right now but I’m still here if you need me.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7umKfCz9z
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjMGFtqIFc
Louise: “R-Really? I-I mean, good. I’m sure Tech will recover, right now though I need you to accompany me to town.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9DBuJ92zv
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1XQLZmAT1
Flamma: “Oh, that’s a good idea!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Qx7lMljuc
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmZrlijinv
Louise: “Huh?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NBmp75Acz
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncyHvXLgZL
Flamma: “Maybe there could be some healing potions for sell. Let’s go!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8GULnstvC
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA4ScfvcQJ
Louise: “Hey, wait!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oPrORerj4
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaMDYWpBOj
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwTeZxxEZp
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgujmbZKYl
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVHJxUfDq4
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzT7riNMiEj
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J8B2mA32X
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MgZHsZDut
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLMYsSipLm
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY1s0Fc6jB
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtznTMLZZ7l
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F7e4ST7jk
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkWVMyB70B
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87RlvyF0iO
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7TB7YTtnE
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFhEVLRTfK
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENVh1cQDK0
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uSNW0ojq2
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAQ1Hy7ixR
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82NfmV4dWF
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXfbE6gs5j
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKpgEsR5z6
Jake: “Damn it…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgjSQ3Ax1N
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsGyPUHOr9
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekw3bETy4T
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuIDlL6aln
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42xHrV25Cb
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhWYdAPs4C
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KAjofPvjR
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqDijFhw5d
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡne0nVajIGP
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwOM8dpBVz
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLbivhGeEw
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15GF6UY3h1
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaGj4231qS
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3RYH5nJPf
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB3gQg3Trw
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD82lojUW4
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CuiuxL1SX
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3kSAsphjm
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpD4UQ0VjS
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68BLiIR2En
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qD1eT2u8G
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZukHwbdxj
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUJX9xmGee
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnBi8EG5dv
He jumped down and approached the noble.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqLGfnaD8m
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpDFZJkXJ0
Jake: “What is it?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFJvtulVKE
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWo3J6OJGp
Zander: “…Something happened.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzFhJPc72X
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iLvG9pxa5
Jake: “Why should I care?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsuTk77E6X
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSybnzjHhXn
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpgHEohE9q
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2APLIgzffF
Jake: “What are you-”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mHnoRqcG3
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoh5j01QE5
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVnKcSMS6A
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh53wkiLVas
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvg8Ox0r9A
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuaAS79ywW
Jake: “Explain.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdr3iLdD1b
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDcwq0ZmYw
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtn49i4j1l
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEMqfualTC
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47iOqKOEtz
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVr2aw7dzG
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteNXM9sbrM
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmuI1Zwkc9
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKU6kAXK4O
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfej5V0lQCX
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I7Rf2OXZZ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1l3F1qZqA
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VUm9kIxEr
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd4UNWSVRm
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhhXSn5EoA
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHltSICNgBF
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKpIfSlQJr
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1A9y3nfCS
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wuDknGf8y
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj0BHEflDi
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4PaWoyaqP
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU9UTqX7DX
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuO5dRZxkF
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikJNyBAfXW
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtIvSMad3u
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrO0oBZ5APX
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5tGo8ysdQ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0bMAsQLPe
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCeYn4GceF
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh85nDGwaze
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKt77ZFgrlH
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjW5fhRjWg
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT3FhYSR1N
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7ydMnpfXf
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hd1ecAQyp
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLkp9VWCND
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaIBun8m7C
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkoT7uhIm8
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J71yC3DY3
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoyIzF5cZH
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchzmpYGZrq
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdIccE0jAO
Despite that…he kept coming.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgkTT5fsN5
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWU0010Yef
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2DcGk4X8M
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHA2nCss1QL
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDphxXMPht
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5cwMehQcR
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC73b5YbUKF
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQjTZH0Z6q
“Stop!!”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLBPwdymMl
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BF30hW53n
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?
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDgqBinHux
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZY31T0YQa
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZf60WrDMn
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHATsOMzeZB
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0YxxG1YVc
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5y2NiQWUq
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLgf1g6W3w
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqftAHJLUSU
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTXWHGR6mY
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPxQMoT0PE
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBzPL0aBUS
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sSm9y22hx
“Jake…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S2rwZe6ui
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEalyiWeLj
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…
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t34HTuuLn
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WH5AThhQK
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5zWvwo8h2
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP52gzrkurF
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieIPyIBbMY
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK3RP7hOpW
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vzN1paFQp
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxsCcA0Syt
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOk0HCihr0
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyFKEFbDJz
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUq31DwKyZ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgsbg4dvcJ
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtDIHYQzR9
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs9kpSLZyw
“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkz6uIIN03a
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eh01lUpmM
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0RjgJhDAf
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NpY5gL1Po
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKNyYV9hlX
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBsfR9p0h3
Zander: “Can I escort you back to the school?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdYG4XH3md
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z6GxJwLKw
Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0k348RgpC
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8pHG2jcNJ
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb6rKRjnaY
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN18eJBD54
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21sEAcmjt6

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.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqsHYhPiOP

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.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXwjkaVSsZ
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…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ5xy9yrjo

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.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCl5CdAM4N
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iZJRKTpcM
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.”

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5W8G9aH2A
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEKbm5pWoc
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?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqUlktlWSg

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWBC8Gpi1u
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakSThLVF2a
Aeron: “Chaos.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga4BaaJl1O

Siesta: “W-What?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC7SERlRUJ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpmYqknKFp
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…”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0mrkWzC3f
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8MWdJJXGI
Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLh27drkIX

Aeron: “You’re sexy when you’re mad.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgpR6S9Tj5
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEs2Kt7pXS
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLvVAiRSz8

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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eeefXCiyj

So he broke off the kiss.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiPf5KTAbq

Aeron: “I’ll take that as a yes?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74T7Pyu8vp
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxd3ft3Spe
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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlnY0OevfI
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0fEP371mo
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR9xoY7xdY

Siesta: “A-Aeron, what’s wrong?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWC511PCyJ
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn36abvC5o
Aeron: “It seems I’m not the only one obsessed with chaos. Someone spatially locked this plane. Summoning is impossible now.”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXelUNeYWY1
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3LO7mjWWP
Siesta: “What…does this mean?”
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEohaXu2sOm
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoEmJgvg2j
Aeron: “It means…things are going to get real fun soon.”

Man, seeing the previous chapters and their grammatically mistakes…
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKo9ylUoc3

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.
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXymiJ6Am1
135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8RIav90OL
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.

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.
