Raskreia: “Planeswalker?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqinIU8g9V
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJdN1wC8q9
Before the strange man can answer, he stumbles backwards and falls back onto a tree.

Raskreia: “Hey! Are you alright?”

Jace: “I don’t have much time. This was the only move I could make to secure us victory.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5ZVnRip4b
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJnRCf4yN9
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfhoSbmRF7
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wlpqZN1au
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…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAycn7BpXfQ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7dsKb282i
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicpQSJ299b
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1GoW0Kudw
She takes two long gulps of air before pocketing the orb and getting up.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksiVIm2i1G

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

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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXffhlxSDMM
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0aP7E46XU
As for these two…
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8m3hxqdh3
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiBFahwtdq
Zander: “Considering the situation, I’ll be the one to break the news to Jake.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0k0c7KhHXd
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl1uKrvceL
Flamma: “Oh yeah…he’s not going to be happy about that.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuFR35StMb
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZX0A6rbZU
Zander: “No…but he has to accept that fact quick. We’ll need him on our side.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sfCRxTMdl
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxHejJcSIv
Flamma: “For what? What’s coming?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUX0O2JfBx
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16yfHno9mN
Zander: “I don’t know…and that worries me all the more.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgWqMzZJSd
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfre8xY86M
Flamma watches Zander walk towards the forest but quickly turns away. She has to focus on what she should do.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaAcy2HxGo
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA4Porj00a
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyktxXw8Rct
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpvkXJrxqb
Flamma: “Who could possibly have the skill to sneak past me and Tech’s defenses? What could-”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzNVK9fjge
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOyZ6P6Ze5
Then she remember last night, when Raskreia sensed something and attacked. Was it that?
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wLzSzn6RP
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHMweHxNDg
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…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC0IxiMqA2
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG70ot35B2i
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJFM6RXt7B
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9VWuE6lTj
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!”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e2KUuRnPN
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwaiH7JLbQ
Flamma escaped her mind and open her eyes to see Louise running to her from across the courtyard.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RKem1m2Td
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5VsIyKsiO
Flamma: “I won’t let hem hurt you either Louise.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuQNNlc2iA
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I01MzGW2e
Flamma took a deep breath and made her way to Louise.

206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuGaUhG3cb

Louise: “Hey, wait!”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZeT7gOJuY
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZS7pNklp5
Flamma pulled Louise towards the front gate and later the town. Only later did she notice that she didn’t know the way.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9AoApfHUq
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJJsL1fryR
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60CjGN3M9u
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVRDCm90Bq
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlwbIk7o2s
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyFegs2AuY
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkKYLmVOJD
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJfU7actSs
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZuasT7eyI
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPolRp1F2x
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4WtSltJKW
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCHKSTeRfM
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBY4d9YJUG
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsUHfcAWsA
Sylphid had an urge to nuzzle him, to lick the wounds clean.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF69tlbIvb
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSuOwerft6
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M3gHlgbWE
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdWgyTrnbA
Unknown to her however, the torture was only beginning.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ScrqMeaN7

Jake: “Damn it…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7XlgJmY5v
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrAJurZqbc
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XR1jdlSVo
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Me9L5gqSA
Jake: “If…I had just died…my parents wouldn’t be…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OoQN0LaBb
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e3KeB9bLY
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZsqPWve7v
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i6Y8VBnIY
Jake: “If I had died…I wouldn’t be like…this…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoVbNs29Zp
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoylGcZ9is
This wouldn’t be bothering him so much if there was something to do. But there’s nothing. He felt lost here.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3icl6Xc2CG
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf74h17TqtP
In New York, he had one absolute mission – destroy Blackwatch. But here…
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOoUOTKOoF
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvjKyRCuST
Jake: “There’s nothing to fight against…nothing to fight for…no anchor…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwSo4fyeMS
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8dopXU0sb
Jake was brought of his thoughts when a new presence entered his field of sight.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeBfBMBVca
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgGrle1CkU
Zander: “Jake, I have…news.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEHmyYcOl8
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOfg0MhLO7
He looked down at Zander and for a moment, felt surprise. Zander looked…off balance.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeelr5pysuW
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznVyZbgi7G
Jake: “What could possible unnerve him of all people.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ9FYygaw0
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pOVkdlDnp
He jumped down and approached the noble.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGywHRhlGI
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ffitGORs6
Jake: “What is it?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq52XKIXG7m
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoJCR3HV85
Zander: “…Something happened.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f7oxf8Sa0
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN9bXSbkq0
Jake: “Why should I care?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPHXqWlO3Q
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuTD4xvuL1
Zander: “It involves your…our way home.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PK5coLrty
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvuCBEHRJP
Jake: “What are you-”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvP97Yc74F
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30RKsWlSPU
Zander: “Someone has locked this dimension, we can’t go back.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaUpnMTIgE
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YB0iYwfBX
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNipEuVIkpY
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD5lWa7CwQ
Jake: “Explain.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyO35b0oy3
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPBbQiFGMz
Zander: “Raskreia is missing and she may not be able to come back to this dimension. We’re stuck here.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk81zYaMIw
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNq00PNDjF
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRiH9v4qM8
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q3ldmpolP
He could focus his anger on the person who locked the dimension. He could have remembered that Zander was not his opponent.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vAScVM0D3
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDfKvYrxl5
He could have done many things. But like so many times before, his anger got the best on him.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsuUNYuGn9
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUVSYEzr7I
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTvqZl4mbM
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrrXhKr49a
Jake: “Wrong Answer.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuU7O5A5b3
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjJoh00snn
Zander: “Don’t do this.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G2RFIxcUf
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIhWwVBkdn
Rage was unreasonable and demanded bloodshed, something Jake was willing to provide.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvy0XFeWfR
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhOF5dQUwb
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEWUrGWgaj
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvxuOjocZB
Jake charged through the pain and launched several more attacked with both clawed hands.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07jgXg9li4
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobDSdVDWv4
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMTafQa4Sn
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtut99TGKMl
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOltbXPLEFQ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKRj7LN4en
He used the branches to reach Zander in the sky. Zander held up his staff to block the overhead slash from Jake.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGhOh0dEdk
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR8QaAidXN
Zander: “Enough Jake, I don’t want to hurt you!”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtWmbudfba
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjnq9fDBqp
His words fell on death ears, the answer he got instead was a heavy blow to the cheek, sending him spinning to the ground.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeH3C4TzZIE
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2dOifl991
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaAchbo1VI
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAXBl6OeQc
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrILYLddk0
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewIEIW0Lp4
But when it finally cracked, Zander was ready. Summoning flames from the deep, he unleashed blue hell from his mouth enveloping Jake.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBwS93CwRS
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KvzYEwTqs
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEjFyMPd7f
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqC7TmQQs5
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvswRgfkVp
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46Pt35VERL
Despite that…he kept coming.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XyKmNoeY7
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG0n7askFy
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctIe58UpS6
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRKsOG9MDP
He didn’t see Zander anymore, he saw Mercer. He saw the monster that took his parents. He saw the bastard smirking, mocking him…
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2eTtE7iRj
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFo6fASCCA
Jake: ‘DIE!!’
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCP9ZBoi3A
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbTMSRZ0aA
“Stop!!”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nFpuVaLPP
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBKQkZFwNO
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?
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnhDVERE9X
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJLzN2yWCv
But this warmth won’t heal him, he needed body mass. Jake was so tempted to eat the one before him.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6G1pzsJHd
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnJWCVz8aq
So tantalizingly close to consuming the one who gave him relief. It would be so easy.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43538QjCqg
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpmkD57CGc
Mercer: “Do it Jake. You’re a weapon, one that will turn this world into a singular paradise. Consume, adapt, survive.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDqzz7EE8m
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWaSHexFzE
Jake: “I…have to survive…I…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXykUcDP5P
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv52JrZY53B
Tendrils snaked up the girl’s body, threatening to penetrate and force her to become one with him.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb1kqoNWgh
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0aPtNUGA2
“Jake…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g5gA1ri6r
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FQuKAqI6I
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…
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKWTT2MyYm
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudpqXaXAFn
His eyes now truly open to see her and she felt…familiar. That familiarly was what he needed to anchor himself.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtQ65pkSkA
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaxIckn5EY
The tendrils recede and Jake takes a step back, removing himself from the warmth of her embrace.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTTIQV6imv
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswdB2dsKa6
Zander: “Jake, are you alright?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUDDJaSAfZ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgkyO7lOOO
Jake: “…Yeah. I just need…a moment to process things.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjy5zfgajFp
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhXaAAslGi
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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE760ToUAO
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFRNuuv8Km
Zander: “He’s a handful. Are you alright miss…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOpu6Ums6h

“I’m Illococoo. Yes, I’m fine.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBcYVzeIma
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBN7NDPoW7
She says that, but Zander can see the burns. She dove into that mess regardless of the danger, all for Jake.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg1QMVFqqP
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxKQ4Jskau
Zander: “If I didn’t cancel my spells in time…”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs7WPXoU2a
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQDB3d3g8j
Zander: “Can I escort you back to the school?”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWWadSWMkT

Illococoo: “No, I can find my own way.”
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMkvmXNmUG
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fFvCf8OzR
Before Zander can protest, she quickly left deeper into the woods as well. He can only sigh and walk back to the school.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc0Dwg1FXl
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAV4c4q7TUf

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.

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.

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…”

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?”

He was tempted to say love or some trite nonsense to seal the deal. But Aeron shrugged and told the true.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENEWZFUVs9

Aeron lifted her chin so she can look him in the eye.

206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RtVR8ckhk
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbhvpuFeMY
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.

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.

So he broke off the kiss.

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.
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4r29zArTu
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwwR2VR5Xd
But this only made Aeron laugh. First, it was a few giggles but it eventually broke into a madding glee.

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.

206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4wRnUdZRq
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.
