Raskreia: “You don’t say? Makes me wish that I stayed.”

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldJJG8QgcF
For the last ten minutes, the courtyard tried to go back to some normalcy. As for Raskreia, she was sitting with Zander, Kirche, Tabitha, and surprisingly Jake.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHc4peWnI9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAkAiHjWyu
He immediately jumped off his tree when he saw Raskreia appear. But before she can help him, she needed to know what the heck happened. Zander took up the task of explaining things to her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPevLCnneU
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBucxtfqw4
Zander: “I have a feeling things would have escalated even further if you were there.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQo738vtyi
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMYKMctqEi
Raskreia: “Ha, you’re probably right.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD8SHmhOgr
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xbp93had5
Jake: “Alright! You’re done with the recap and learning who those 2 are. Can you help me get back home now?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMenKBPsec
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHsqLBCngf
Raskreia: “Sure kid. What’s you’re world like?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhd0RqBQRzz
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREVK96XXnS
So Jake did. Not everything, but enough for Raskreia to get a good sense of earth. He refused to answer any of the questions Kirche may have had. He just wanted to get this done as quickly as possible. Raskreia did enjoy Kirche and Tabitha’s shocked expressions though.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdfNSss4Tm
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn7G5HQH48
Raskreia: “Well, I didn’t expect that. Considering your powers, I was sure your world would have been some, no offensive, hellscape.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutBSDt7LNe
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZxwNfljBA
Jake: “I’m not the norm and I didn’t…ask for these abilities.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTucyTK83n
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHwzhKeqWV
Raskreia: “…Understood. Well, your world does sound interesting. I can probably find it by asking around and using gate to move the possible candidates. But the time frame is still the same. You’re okay with that right?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7Hp0XTPle
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPwuuV342g
Jake: “…Yes.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUkIbStq9i
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UxwMzAqOM
He says that he is boiling inside. If it wasn’t for Zander, he might rampaged to let off some steam. Jake ponders what he should do in the meantime.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbcQD2fb69
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhEcYQ73Wj
Blackwatch was still alive. The virus was still alive. But Aunt Dana was also still alive. She’s smart so she could hack any system and expose Blackwatch and Gentek for their little dirty deeds.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIG3WTGho0
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBr6Fcmgap
Jake: ‘On the other hand, she could be found and killed…’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHrOLXvEkE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGwL52WUYI
Jake: “Damn it…”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGlVnBHh1p
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91rBTQsL4I
He whispered his frustrations as the situation further set in. Jake wanted to kill those bastards for the people of New York. For the things they did. But most of all…for his parents. Yet he’s stuck here until this woman finds his world.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp35gi7r9Dh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfGUXvOPuY
A strange sensation snapped Jake out of his mind. A warm and gentle feeling at his sides.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwmuPsT7mR
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHeLSvgbyw
Raskeria: “Awwww.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRhKsRS1Wg
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiqTAgX7q7
Jake looks down to see Sylphid…nuzzling him. Sylphid began purring, in an attempt to soothe Jake.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc9vvbiD6i
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66szzutuFq
Jake: “What…is this thing doing?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hLLIa3fBi
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdYP5pMjpT
Raskeria: “I think she likes you.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7inuDk7vx

Jake: “Make it stop or I’ll make it stop.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkimZhe8gcn
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5wOpOM9BM
Zander: “Jake, Sylphid is not trying to attack you so there’s no need for that.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicZKdE35xs
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQScS5UbyFn
Jake: “I don’t care.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo23pATBy5e
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMzgW4p4Ka
Jake got out of his chair and moved away from Sylphid. Sylphid didn’t follow but did look at Jake with…sympathy.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3qew6u5xA
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2Dtfv6yS0
Jake: ‘Monsters don’t comfort and they definitely don’t need sympathy.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerhHIDtmbh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbcpJEhnbc
Jake: “Keep that dragon away from me. When you get a lead on my world, contact me so I can go with you. Even if it’s a false lead, it might have something for me to kill.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSw2UEuEIx
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqkY8l8TXJ
Jake gave a dangerous glare at Slyphid before going back into the forest.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jiw6lGTIa
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYN2QRat85
Raskeria: “Tabitha, you’re dragon is cute but she might also be suicidal if she wants to cuddle up with Jake.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeods4CTvh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nSDdEX5WQ
Tabitha said nothing but took the statement into consideration. Slyphid interest in Jake is definitely strange.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDevosVubV1
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYycXwVf2MV
Raskeria: “Well, before I go on that realm hunt I better get used to this place. Maybe meet up with the rest of the group. I’m really interested in meeting this Tech kid.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOkPgWquY9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi3XwjBn72
Raskeria left the group and started exploring the academy. As for Zander, he still has to deal with Kirche.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiskWZNJofT
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDblsPtB3iS
Kirche: “Now, where were we?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxQBoejfgD
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDZaH3EZGk
She says while pressing her best assets against Zander.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrzYRKeSyf
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcW4JeYjmhx
Zander sighs before answering her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uwxj2AFfa
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPS8iDdls3
Zander: “Miss Zerbst, I’d appreciate my arm back.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer42inpNhH
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvjKk7Rafe
Kirche blinked when Zander removed his hand from between her great valleys. But Kirche won’t give up that easily. She curled her hair with her fingers, angling her body in a way that showed off her chest.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjnhKMMqzE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7eIMwK2Aj
Kirche: “Of course. My mistake. They say my family is the passionate kind. Burning hot, like the fires of the sun. Forgive me for my moments of…uncontrollable need. I will do my best to restrain myself around you. Until of course, you say otherwise.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDWuWDmvKX
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKis4FxhSTA
Zander: “Forgiven. Now if you’ll excuse me, I probably should check in with my own realm. I’m Raskeria and the others can handle Jake if he acts up.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFnqiCYVRE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHlchOUdhR
Kirche: “So you have gate spell just that woman? When will you be back?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPQY7IECnd
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1QnditT7b
Zander: “I’ll be back by tomorrow. I don’t want to miss the big fight.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmdTbFCV93
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAz8uU6nw1
Zander gestured with his hand, warping space around his fingers. Kirche and even Tabitha were awe-struck by the portal. Non-euclidean shapes appeared within the warped space where light failed to penetrate.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6eFzJGkMT
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWzc908NVx
Zander stepped through the warp, disappearing completely into murky shadows. They seemed to grow within themselves like monsters trapped beyond a mirror.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpbEoxpx5P

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jen12uDz6
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwmLGbjYqu
Tech just finished his repairs and fixed the glitches he experienced outside. Right now, he and the maid trio are in the nurse’s office. Tech is on the bed while the 3 girls are sitting around him. Only Siesta seemed shocked by the nature of his repairs.

While they debate over the ethics of the familiar system, Siesta is filled with worrying thoughts. She’s overjoyed that she made friends who are willing to fight for her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwah7O5Wuu
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBR81jBfuH
But she is also terrified for them. If they died for her…

Siesta: “You shouldn’t have done that.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrBs9NFM5t

Louise would have gone crazy from the boredom and maybe anger at her double. But her thoughts were on what her familiar told her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5twxidOlO
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5po6W7aNVl
Louise: ‘Otherworlds. Metal monsters. Wandless magic. It’s all so much to take in. I wouldn’t have even believed it if I wasn’t there for some of it. And I have a feeling it’s only getting to get more crazy.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwJ06oeBPO
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4q10N7Pw7D

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LgoKnekcs

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1dJWm27HE

That put some hope in Louise’s eyes. Maybe she can make this snake her familiar. Much better than that commoner.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gZVvXD5k0

Louise: “Then…will be my familiar?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2saY9MMvvP
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6oblGwLYf
For a while, there was nothing but silence. Louise was about to decide between forcing the matter or crying. Instead, the snake asked a question.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx5Dn2sa5m

The snake did as he was asked. Louise used some of her remaining strength to sit up and take her wand from the snake’s mouth. The snake then laid on her bed, awaiting Louise’s next action.

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAu8bWfMMi
Louise was stunned, the possibility that an animal could learn magic was preposterous. Magic was Brimir’s gift to humans, not animals. That dragon was from another world so she didn’t count but this snake…

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg7gUYzLXy
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkdHsyNBVU
Aeron: “…Baleful Polymorph."

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTR0iAN9v9
A flash of light illuminated the room as the spell did its job. Louise blinked, her familiar spoke something, and then the world went white.

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEUL7eFUgX
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmf6Dib5LQb
She didn't hear the voice as much as she felt it in her mind. The girl looked at her surroundings...and spotted Aeron, but he was different. The snake was bigger than she remembered, in fact, it was bigger than she was.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5GRVqNOm3

Louise: "W-What happened?"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7xIk4DjNa
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IdbcMCQ5A
Is what she wanted to say but instead only made a Ribbit-Ribbit sound. Looking over the room it seemed larger, that is until she spotted her reflection in the big mirror.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsPaGH0nog
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MZ19JYcOY
Where she was supposed to be, was now a toad standing beside Aeron. She would have screamed but only more strange noises emerged.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAoaHV5Czj
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02dpdzXEwi
Louise: ‘W-What h-happened to me? Is this a dream? Y-Yes, a nightmare, it has to be a nightmare, I will wake up and all will be fine. Flamma will be next to my bed like this morning. She’ll probably have a crazy new story for me to listen to while I eat.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAtwoMqzXI
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK8rpRe1RP
Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard Aeron laugh.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OzpBZyjh6
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxIHpKTQzU
Aeron: "Sss-sss-sss-sss, thisss isss no dream little one, thisss isss asss real asss it getsss. Asss to what happened, I turned you into a toad, and a toad you ssshall remain."

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72MYzSTxOK

She tries to ask with her mouth but only animals escape it.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS7jQszRZa
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhP1gspCCSg
Aeron: "Don't try to talk, you can't ssspeak in your form. Itsss enough to think what you want to asssk. I’ll read it from your mind that way. Asss to why, I wasss hoping to teach you real magic, not the parlor tricksss your peers perform. Sssadly it ssseamsss I misssjudged you and ssso I'm now finishing lossse endesss.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs17xhsRSf

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtyQRGDm7f
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNJAI3nccJ
Aeron: "I don't think you can, magic demandsss an open mind and a lot of concentration. You on the other hand are impulsssive and narrow-minded. I'm an excellent teacher, but even I have my doubtsss that my knowledge would pierce all of the falssse information that you were indoctrinated with. No, you will remain like this until you die."

Aeron: "You command me? The lassst entity who wanted to command me wasss a Merilith, a demonic general.

Aeron: "Goodbye little one"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyf5dahDzh1
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa37uGXeAXH
Aeron changed his shape back into his human form and started to meld into the shadow of the room.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXpt9V5V7s
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFTcgAYB0x
Seeing that Louise began to panic. She had to convince him to turn her back, but how? She could not command him to do it, what else is there?
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3ikosB6ye
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nE2u22D2W
Louise: ‘Wait! You are presuming that I would not learn because of my prejudices, is that not the same for you? You told me basically that I should not judge blindly, so why not give me a chance to prove that I can learn?’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaNuA3QcLz
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXAZIlUIyK
Nothing, no reply came to her desperate plea. She collapsed on the bed, too tired to do anything. Her life is really finished. As cold reality starts to set in, Louise’s mind drifts to Flamma, her first familiar.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB210vPXBXO
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOF8ArkEG9
She doesn’t know why Flamma came to her mind. She didn’t know her that long. But…her presence was comforting. She accepted her when all other familiars rejected her. She brought her food when she was weak and even stayed by her side until her duties as a maid called for her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FyPBsk9gv
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCnVq4tlj0
But now? Even she wouldn’t want to be a familiar to a frog. Flamma won’t grace her with that sweet smile she gave while she told her story anymore.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKSkspcn96
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72pNquDCsB
Before despair fully broke her, she heard laughter coming from the darkness that surrounded her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOitDEsfs4
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yMI6lM6Em
Aeron: “Hahahaha, how amusing. Indeed you are learning. Threats and begging for mercy never pay off. The best option is to bring your foe to see things your way. Though we will have to work on your persuasion skills, they are somewhat lacking."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3mfum5T91
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklrdQFwOf2
Aeron emerged from the shadows and snapped his fingers.Louise found herself back on the bed, looking at her hands.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxus9yFkvVR
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5nydIfNBv
Louise: ‘I’m…back.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuQVG0j0hk
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkcZgZXd2S
She smiled and let her tears flow freely. It was certainly a one-of-a-kind experience, one that she didn't want to repeat as long as she lived…
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xgKmWhUkh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlElWhTwwhZ
After she got a hold of herself, she spotted Aeron, not as a snake but as a human.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ3fgNk0Cb
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7XhuN8JTr
He was around two meters tall, dressed in black leather armor. His head was hidden behind a hood and his face covered by a mask, making it difficult to see any facial features. He carried on his belt a black...glass?
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrcD1uUQpT
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnfvvUicnr
There was also a long sword and an evil-looking dagger strapped to the belt. On his hands were long black gloves, with metal depicting the bones of the human hand and a lot of rings on his fingers. On his chest was a picture of a silver skull in a purple sun.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7EP4s97xC

Chuckling Aeron seated himself in one of the chairs in the room.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIUypLo4wv
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f9BAmJuUH
Aeron: "Now we are getting somewhere. As I have mentioned my name is Aeron and I would appreciate it if you used it instead of familiar. To answer your questions no I'm not a noble and yes I am a mage."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5D4t5jVdx
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jcQ8YycLU
Louise: "But how? Nobility comes from magic. Unless…you’re not from this world. Just like the others.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqI2mIxUhb
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrhLhp9BAn
Aeron: “Correct, but I’m not from whatever worlds they came from. Truly, impressive dragging us all here. 7 different worlds all connected to this one.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz9zmtkLXW
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjQktKTqgl
Aeron: “Now, back to teaching you magic. First, let go of the wand. You won’t need it for my magic.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tyND4gyZ3
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoVn8hjSc5
Louise: “So you’ll be teaching me what that Raskeria girl did.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj42XLPx2gH
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8cwSrkSBk
Aeron: “…Something like that.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJB3qCtDOT
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1gPedza1q
Louise: “Can I…really do that? I’m not from your world.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGcGDuYTF9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnvCS5Bgs4
Aeron: “Trust me. Unless…you want to be a Zero all your life.”

Louise: “NO!”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MiKvfzCIP
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaalW5YA4J
Aeron: “Then let go of the wand.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8DHCQvt9q
Louise looked at her wand, the wand that had been with her for her whole life. They’ve been through a lot, but it was time to move on. To bigger and better things. She let the wooden stick roll off her palm and onto the floor.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84PZTMZxEW
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBj9Sp4KfZ
Aeron then proceeded to crush it underfoot, sending its pieces across the floor. That part of her life…is now dead.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZN6KsBN4g
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSFPkvt4hY
Aeron: “When I’m done, you’ll be able to do that binding ritual with a finger. Now…”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZlQEASwkZ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjatxCxnpuz
Aeron snapped his fingers again and a book appeared levitating in front of him, from it a single piece of paper floated up to where Louise was.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0PoXn8n2D
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXtIveTwYB
Her eyes were wide open at the display of power made by her familiar, it took a minute before she snapped out of it and took the paper that was floating in front of her.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr4Hoiahwb
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PuVX5gfKo
Louise: "Whats this?"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMmbKIdCuB
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB3IfMkuBc
Aeron: "Its a spell of ′Silent Image′, a nice and safe low-level spell for beginners. You will memorize the scroll and then cast it. Simple as that."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQueG1PNYXk
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHqFM9TQI2
Louise: "...I...can't read these runes."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzwQj8oEN8
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYGakusMKI
She was not happy about admitting there was something she was unable to do. But if she wanted to learn Aeron’s magic, then there was no other way around it. It's not like these runes were drastically different from those she knew. True, some were absolutely foreign to her, but mostly it was the unfamiliar way the runes were inscribed in relation to one another that made no sense.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobhYwM06bE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQZKKZyB98
Aeron smirked behind his mask.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzd6DLZcKk
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyloNyQ42kQ
Aeron: “I will teach you how to read them, but before that would master be so kind as to tell me more about what you know about magic? It would save some time if I don't repeat what you already know."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVYalhu1EV
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZenzRMdbk8
She thought about it for a second before she nodded. Louise sat up straight demurely, lifted a finger, and started explaining, proud as a peacock.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnVOR5KZ31
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aBYvytLVZ
Louise: "Listen, magic is divided into the five elements, Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, and the lost element of Void. The number of elements that a mage uses can be increased, and his class changes accordingly. A mage who can use only one element is a dot, ability to have two – makes one a line, being able to use three – triangle and four a square mage. Spells are also applied to the class. The spells from three elements are called 'Triangle spells'. Each time the spell class rises, the consumption of willpower doubles."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfgBgNda70
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnQlrdz0bW
After she explained her magic system she puffed out her chest and allowed herself a small smile. After all, the written exams were her strong side.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CX2H1JF6Z
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqoh03Xn9T
Aeron looked blankly at her before continuing on.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMvWGaE2yN
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAwKmZPJd5
Aeron: "Okay, how long have you studied magic?"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA66U4cmlmJ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T17REFVYF
Louise: "Since I could lift a wand. I am a noble after all"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJc0UfLdFx
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEDpz1gRMe
Aeron: "Very well, I will show you the spell and you pay attention"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUAXcAecEe
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuirUfG8oOo
He spoke so she could understand him easily and memorize it.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJB14udOE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvlFqY0Xzt
Aeron: "Silent Image."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ETcF7RjAJ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJgrxhSwhR
In front of them, an illusion of Professor Colbert appeared, his lips moved but no sound was forthcoming. And with a hand gesture, Aeron willed the image to disappear.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ADUdr53ul
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3Pw3FWkZg
Aeron: "Have you memorized the incantation?"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtSINZmQqB
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJrnZqUQ6L
Louise nodded.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0geYCRvT7
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpucoBUWEe
Aeron: "Excellent. Now from what I’ve learned from you and idle talk around this place, you should already know how to use your willpower. All you need now is to imbue your fingers and tongue with magic as you would do with your wand. You will feel a slight tingling in them, if you put too much magic it will start to hurt so be careful."
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6oS2qGGzN
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcZZhD8k9l
The girl nodded again and closed her eyes. After a few minutes of testing the spell in her thoughts, she took a deep breath.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCc7QWF7SLr
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImOUjKg1Gt
She opened her eyes and focused her mind on the spell, moving her delicate fingers she spoke.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR9RQF7l7k

Louise: "Silent Image!"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVig75CqXW
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHoc8lGiEm
In front of her, an illusion of Flamma appeared and smiled at Louise. Tears began to run down Louise’s face as she stared at the illusion.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOgWsTDsJq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvGhyoAEgu
Louise: “I did it…I cast…a spell…”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD3xzikzio
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2uvy23FvS
She continued to sob as Aeron rolled his eyes. But that roll instantly turned into a gaze of alertness.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTUPHijsGn
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39PilH8hZe
Aeron: ‘Seems like the fun is over for now.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMccaFRGWS
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLJJcxkKUl
Aeron got up and dispelled the illusion of Flamma.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88bqqGkByW
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5h3D2ZHMw
Aeron: “Louise, I need you to keep what we’re learning from the other familiars and even the teachers and students..”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHmxvmhZI0
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyyBee97Li
Louise wiped away her tears and turned to her true teacher.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVWiKYzhXd
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTg45ToMs2
Louise: “But why?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBY8JrktaC
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsql8TWBMtX
Aeron: “The commoners among your familiars will be jealous. They may even want me to teach them. I want to help only you so that can’t happen. Let’s wait until your training is complete and then surprise them.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ItdWHTnNj
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPlcXktxSe
Louise: “I guess…that makes sense.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCR07J6VNd
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9OPx9jMcp
Louise: ‘Shame, I did want to brag to Flamma.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh117DjoeKh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF33kuHcI0s
Louise: “But why not the teachers and students?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOGpUYcAne
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFlHMP3Ad3
Aeron: “Similar reasons. This magic is beyond them. Wouldn’t want them to, I don’t know, ban me from teaching you.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqlEQn1jrJ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv92Ussqj0
Louise: “I won’t let that happen!”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxetY2dotE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUMI6022bT
Aeron: “Good. Now, I’ll see you later. When you’re alone once again.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvkxSDealh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud4HoUjICU
With that, Aeron faded into the darkness of the room. Just in time for the door to open, revealing Flamma.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39iFCNhuCt
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B5K4Y7tzh
Flamma: “Hey Louise wait until I…are you crying?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XJvzLcivi
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwrwHYLmXf
Flamma knelt beside Louise and looked at her with worry.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lw0AtY28e
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk0sN45CwD
Louise: “No, I just had something in my eye.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgsNTbPADO

Flamma: “Are you sure? Nothing happened while I was gone right?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xEBePGnnk
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFsChEPaXR
Louise: “No, I’m fine Flamma.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl57szFzFBp
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEgicx1Q17
Flamma: “Oh, no familiar. What did I do to deserve this treatment?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s1nT7YTck
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7uX71jyAW
Louise: “Hmph, you’re still my familiar. But you also have a name. It’s also much easier to say than familiar.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5KVjdD4Va
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVckr9sQ5Bd
Flamma: “Awww, thanks. That’s probably why everyone calls me that instead of my first name. Anyway, I’ve got a new story to tell you.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqTEy3Gkqo
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxClRMI7N4O
Louise: “Something else happened?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzluH5tSG0l

Flamma: “You know it. You summoned some interesting characters.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwdCrjSjdq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbBrg6C4d8
As Flamma began to retell the events of the day, Louise couldn’t help but softly smile. Her life was really looking up.

It was almost time for bed but that didn’t stop Tech. He was determined to sleep in his lab tonight. The place suggested by Siesta was more than big enough for him to set up a Lab, HVSF(Heavy Vehicle Station Factory), COM Tower, and one landing pad.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjTL80sDFA
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVv1oPvq5g
Tech: ‘And thanks to subspace technology, it can all fit in a small space and leave lots of room. I love science.’

He went to work by first getting out a Nanocube to construct the foundation to put his things on. Once the tiny bots were released they began to work the molecular structure of the ground into solid Granite Steel.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RLY8PKJL3
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe78paRMdBO
Once the ground was stable and flat Tech got out another cube, this one all gray with yellow slanted lines. He walked over to the 50 by 50-foot pad and set it in the center before backing out. It was then the Energy Storage cube started its work.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAvjRHwSLs
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLNsJSBsEe
First, an outline of the HVSF's supports began to show before filling in with steel beams. Next, floors were made followed by walls and grava-pads in the back. Then it made one sub-space connection floor to transport any number of vehicles in and out of this room and into another.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyr2bfn3Rh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q4oFKUogs
He proceeded to walk inside and type in a command to make another 50 by 50 overhang to his right and placed a red cube with black ripples into a open section in the console and got to work.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvRYtZ4rh8
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRsLjXcSBT
On its right, a skeletal overhang folded out and stabilized itself before it began to fill in with another skeletal structure being the COM tower. The bottom where it would stand was held by many thin legs, holding cylinders with many tall rods. Some with blinking red lights.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCb168Jgz3
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YCzQpbdjv
He then put in two last cubes. One green with a rectilinear black and yellow warning strip for Landing Pad. One white cube with blue spots for the lab.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9LSWyO8mh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6MkIEi9sf
And after another 5 minutes, it was complete. HVSF on ground level. Lab on top. Landing Pad on the left overhang and COM Tower on the right overhang.

Normally a 50 by 50 spaced lab and vehicle station wouldn't be much. But that problem could be tossed aside as all the rooms are connected to a Sub-space induced area.

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtVPlZT1z0
The inside was 200 feet and had 20 doors leading to 15ft living rooms, 12ft bedrooms, two different shower rooms, and a 10ft kitchen.

Then came the lower Sub-Spaced sections to the HVSF. This place had a grand total of 800ft filled with both ground and air vehicles. But that was the first 400ft. The rest was used as both a factory and repair station with crates, spare parts, a game room, and other things.

Dove: “Amazing.”

473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GpYBEyCRb
Tech looked behind him looking at his creation in awe.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ABN5t3pv1
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjhRpqEx1K
Tech: “Right, isn’t science amazing?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQiH8hdgZX
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJQMWqt3pY
Dove: “Indeed, it reminds me of the Dwemer but far more advanced. The world you come from must be quite the sight.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtqerHaSJK
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIxwTBjnKj
Tech: “Yep. But what’s a…Dwemer?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RkxIbNZTT
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpztgdu6MJ
Dove: “Right, since no one else is around I can tell you. I’m another one of the being summoned by Louise. The dragon to be exact.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2fDpTX3NQ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMVvbuehJN
Tech: “Oh, you’re the one Colbert was talking about. But why are you hiding.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iKqbYEWkv
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhO8rcDcDZ
Dove: “Long story short, I’m a wood elf and people here don’t like elves. So I’m keeping my dragon and elf self separate. The elf self has to cover her ears as well.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq2WW4Ec1O
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WQtAgn3Nz
Tech: “Religion?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetjJ0KNUYU
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMzSJDt8sx
Dove: “Yeah.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wYw9XxOKq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfBDZKa76A
Tech: “Tch, primitives. Well, I won’t judge you. So, about Dwemer?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuno0Clc6hF
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZR4IufPX8
Dove: “The Deep Elves and they were the most advanced race on Nirn. Their machines still exist to this day.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8Qtj78QzM
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzHcQw80zR
Tech: “Were? Oh, let me guess. They blew themselves up to kingdom come.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKhjntD11g
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAIERtGxTn
Dove: “More like messed with the heart of a god and thus erased their entire race from existence in an instant.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UqY9lXlBD
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lIqRaKYDX
Tech: “…Okay, didn’t expect that. I’m assuming this was thousands of years ago.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMOOI6FLgf
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZaX18X3xQ
Dove: “Before you say it’s an exaggeration, don’t. It wasn’t that long ago and some elves do remember what happened.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE3rVuF369
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBtADFqDly
Tech: “…Fine, but I’m not taking your word for it. I mean come on, the heart of a god just wiping an entire species away? That’s crazy!”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jbqt1rxHz
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoi4UVQxuBE
Dove: “The multiverse is a crazy and mysterious place. But enough about that, can I come in?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWagD9UgID2
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAEqMSLorX
Putting that crazy conversation behind him, Tech nodded and walked to the blue pad. Dove joined and they waited for the grava lift to kick in.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbRueESF6k
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAS7ReGoZT
When it did, it brought the due to Tech’s lab. He breathed in the air in it and sighed in joy.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEqhf4B2Oq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBnA1j0o7w
Tech: "Thank you lord for filtered air!"
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNokD2Rcvf
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ODpsz6sID
Dove: “This place feel…weird.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajawn5Qf3p
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM51GFdmxZ
Tech: “That’s super clean air for you. Breathe it in and enjoy.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2BuVKd6g1
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9J63JTG0Q
Tech practically skipped to his most beloved thing, something he dearly missed. The TTACCOA or The Totally Awesome Command Chair Of Awesomeness.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczVnXt21sS
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAABw5rm4iH
He soon sat down on the comfy leather. The chair can spin 360 degrees. It’s complete with holo keypads, security feed, games, blueprint makers, and total control over all Tech’s toys and so much more.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtglAX8SD03
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51vQ0LddVE
Dove: “You look like you’re having fun.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvQ86oAlh9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIx60jbkpi
Tech: “This is my happy place.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewYYLtyRWh
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6H2uAGRkH
Dove: “A chair?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXnCq80JTc
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOJYFJo6RG
Tech: “The most awesome chair you’ll ever see! Because I don’t want you sitting in it. This baby is all for me.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq885LqnJl
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCbW5inz4U
Dove: “Don’t worry, I won’t touch your…baby.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cOuXVM5oP
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqvpPRknaF
Tech: “Good, because I sadly have to leave it. I need a Nano-Bath to further repair my body for the work ahead.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh96jAfBw7T
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCIYPQoX1F
Dove: “You know, I do healing magic so-”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtcaBshSfj
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB3LKcFiVV
Tech: “No thanks, I’m good. No offense, but I’ll trust science over magic any day. Besides, I don’t mind earning my health back through my own genius.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF37d0Uz6U8
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe3EO7eP0w
Dove sighed before letting Tech have his way. He’s definitely the most interesting and strangest of the familiars summoned.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQYI9pCVHE
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZOqmErDSA
Tech: “Feel to look around and marvel. There will be signs to show you around.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUT4l98vbl
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEKeszPk2n
With that, Tech got up and wandered to the area where the Nano-Baths were. Dove made her way through the place, admiring the high technology.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5O8Rz4W5yQ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqhDX338cV
If there was one thing that Dove didn’t like though, it was the aesthetic. It was metal and sterile. It made her miss the outdoors already. But as she visited the individual rooms, she had another thought.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5mOnf05qO
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9ADO9KZTT
Dove: ‘If they can be customized, this would be a nice base for all of us. Secure, clean, and enough room for everyone. I’m sure they’d prefer this over sleeping outside or going through the trouble of teleporting home. Or in Flamma’s case, on hay.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDYO1T1Bvo
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKbNEJC1nX
Dove continued her tour of the various areas of the base until she got bored and returned back to the lab. When she entered, she heard a somewhat familiar voice.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelO5yi7EuK
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRYGktYyQp
“What the hell is this?!”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jM0tVeDv8
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l5slvVE7z
Dove: “Who’s there?!”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhTeklqyon
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3DV8n6UEl
Dove said while looking around for any possible enemy.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDWqq3aYFx
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3wxXZvTGk
Tech: “It’s a sound transmission from outside Dove, no one is attacking.’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPklo3lq5Z
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk8M75W60s
Dove turned to face Tech who looks healthier than before. He also has some strange armor over his body. The armor is dark green and black. He sat down and typed some commands to bring up a visual.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPMYGtVHLi
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XHXxTQuFi
Standing outside is Raskreia who is looking at the screen with an interested look.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2FKILJFSZ
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH1ZzXbRe2
Raskreia: “Oh, I get it. Okay, who built this? I swear it wasn’t the last time I checked.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYKzh1Do1h
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALcgUkDmi8
Tech: “One of us?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3MqF2rI7y
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0vVGkZWbw
Dove: “Yeah, the one who can use the gate spell to go back home. She’s currently helping Jake first.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAR0kZ56D5
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowShQ7ngFZ
Tech: “Really? I was sure she tricked everyone and left on her own. Well, let’s go greet her.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptxIxkcdgy
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3yNvQJFIM
The duo exited the lab and went back to the grava lift. It took no time to get back to the surface and greet Raskreia.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRtuoW2Esj
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OdxdFYjYA
Raskreia: “Whoa, aren’t that sick kid from back then?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GuYrZZ4Cb
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseUMhhlKij
Tech: “Yeah, I got better.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kercft8Ne
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZ4TTuNVXC
Raskreia: “I see, and who is this?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjxaQgks7A
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXl66eeJou
Dove: “I’m Dovahkiin. Call me Dove when I’m in this form.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMWXRKjfC4
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWNKRrp5CT
Raskreia: “No way, really? Zander didn’t mention that. Does that mean you’re undercover or something?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ60EdIHYb6
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnx0OVSrdU
Dove: “Something like that, I’ll tell you on the way. Come in.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCx9UmJyVq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCToWUj191
Tech: “You know, it should be me inviting her in. This is my base after all.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmKX6qKjFx
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtT8Ta0b28
Dove: “Can she come in?”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd2R38Tti9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcqdYZ56Xo
Tech: “I didn’t say she couldn’t. Just…come on.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzzHdIzLLl
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr7U1VT69X
The trio went back inside and headed toward the lab. Dove filled Rask in on their situation.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfoqrAr2Vf
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYL4kUVHGW
Raskreia: “Wow, I probably shouldn’t leave then. The next time I come back, the entire country might be in flames.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfpaGhv1K4
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZAeZjF1bk
Raskreia: ‘I probably shouldn’t reveal my true form either. These people would go nuts!’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo65GvOIw4x
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvuvV7Hdh8
Dove: “No need to worry about that, I wouldn’t let it happen. I have a 100% success rate in saving the world.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYahQDTzTM
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67yOaxyARQ
Tech: “Well, since you’re here make yourself a home and marvel at my creations. It’s going to get even more amazing tomorrow.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGsb132ooS
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwQDEYM8fb
Raskreia: “Yeah, the fight. I’m so there for it. But it’s interesting that you just let me hang around your base without supervision.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBRDbPKkOX
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyv0Iyld0b
Tech: “Oh don’t worry, I have systems in place in case you’re feeling suicidal.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRIzydPYfB
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegq1Hek7K9
Raskreia: “Ha, I like you kid. I’ll think stick around then.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQvqpfZEP2
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEDoT6HnbX
Tech: “Fine, pick a room and-”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqoAMKloqr
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ISOueWTrg
Dove: “Speaking of, can we customize them? They are kind of plain as is.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiebsV8LOcF
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9qlsgmmnP
Tech: “Easy, but can we save it for tomorrow? Even I need rest.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkJUXrqr1X
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jxfQmMjyn
Dove: “Sure. After I show Raskreia to the living rooms, I’ll probably have to leave and fly around the academy. I wouldn’t want people to worry that a large dragon is missing and on the loose.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFQFkOQNuU
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfLvWIRC0z
Raskreia: “That must suck. You’ll probably have to sleep on the roof then.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJyPCu5eE9
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAjvPbr3RN
Dove: “I’m sure it won’t be so bad.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdCpT5okvL
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1eDr2f6SJ
Dove: ‘Great, just when I found an actual bed to sleep in…’
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxe4xzaRQK
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPaf9e7PPy
Tech: “I’m actually curious about your dragon form. I’ll walk out with you when you’re ready.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGtcuvtPjA
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9gZZtRWe7
Dove: “Alright.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsCaemEs4v
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmz0U8vJ9Oe
So Dove showed Raskreia to one of the living rooms and she proceeded to flop on the bed. Leaving her to get comfortable, the duo left the base for the surface.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6XQhPXvLq
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvHNVGypFS
Dove got a good distance away from before using her dragon aspect shout to transform into a dragon. She then took off and flew around the academy.
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QipMlQlL3
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FDJuIicYs
Tech: “Fine, I’ll admit that transforming into a dragon is cool and beyond what I’m capable of. I mean I could make a mechanical dragon. Note to self, post that as a future project and pit it against Dove.”
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9v2Bnqv7c
473Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ1tF11HxH
With that, Tech went back into his lab to finish a few preparations for tomorrow. And then finally getting a good night’s sleep.
