Ysley stood frozen in shock, the seconds stretching into what felt like an eternity. He locked eyes with the monster he had brought to life and an intense soul-piercing connection formed between them."Malachi," Ysley uttered and his former lab assistant walked around him, twirling the pistol in his hand. "You know when I was in that cave. I didn't know what exactly was going on, my mind went blank and all I could think of was your death. But after I came out, I noticed a hundred years had passed. I thought my revenge would never be fulfilled." Malachi stopped. "But here you are, alive and well."Ysley found himself at a loss for words. The students were witnessing a situation that could have potentially led to his demise, something he desperately wished to avoid, especially in this place. "Malachi, I'm sorry for what I di-""Stop! Stop! Stop right there." Malachi put his palm to his face. "Don't give me that fake apology doctor. I know what I saw in your face, you knew what you did.

As Emirus walked while holding his two remaining students he received a notification from Roman, it read: "I can't get a hold of Liric, However, Ysley is in danger. He is facing an enemy from his past and due to this he will not fight back, so please. Help him."Emirus read the text in annoyance, wondering how they had known that the enemy had been fighting Ysley in the first place. He was too tired to fight again so he sent a notification to his students, wanting to promise them that if they helped they would be put at the top of the class. However, after the disaster that had just occurred, he had no intention of marching them to their deaths. However, even though he knew Liric was impulsive and indolent, he wasn't one to ignore messages that told him to help someone. In the hope that his friend would answer Emirus notified Liric of the situation and in an instant he received a message back saying: 'I'm currently pursuing a baddie from Hades, he's probably going to the Vancrest acad

In the shadowy recesses of The Vancrest Academy, where the large dormitories stood, there existed a solemn construct known simply as the 'Skybox'. It was a place untouched by the students, a haven for the preserved remains of those who had been, until recently, alive and full of promise. It had been behind the dorms for decades and none of the students had known, that was how much nobody in the academy wanted to go there or even acknowledge its existence.On this awful day, as the sky turned darker and threatened to pour down, a deep silence fell over the crowd. A heavy sense of sadness hung in the air, almost suffocating. It was as if the rain itself understood the grief that had befallen the academy.As the rain started falling, it seemed to match the feelings of everyone there. The sky's tears mixed with the tears of the people, reminding them of the sorrow they shared. The rain washed over their heads, mingling with their own tears as they continued to weep.Among the gathered cro

Finn ran down an open path in the cave that led to where the dragon's roar had come from. He had been eager to test his abilities but as he turned a corner and saw the large beast, his previous eagerness turned into a will to run.Beneath the dragon were adventurers who fought it, and beneath the adventurers were corpses with iron plates strapped onto their chests. Finn had seen enough death in his time at the academy but it was always awful to see such a thing, despite how much he thought he had gotten used to the sight. It was just one of those things that the body would never get used to. Finn stopped in his tracks, there were a multitude of adventurers all attacking the dragon, using their spells and weapons however their attack bounced off the colossal beast like pebbles thrown at an iron wall."That's it, I'm done!" One adventurer uttered, turning back and heading toward Finn but as he made his move to retreat the dragon unleashed a fiery onslaught that burnt him down to ash in

Sophia walked toward the Ianbris guild as the hot sun showered rays of its unending heat upon her, this was a few days after graduating from the academy. She had left earlier than Finn due to some complications that came with having a Pandora's Blessing.She entered the guild and held her ears, the chatter and noise being made in the guild only added to the sun-induced headache she had suffered. She walked toward the notice board, grabbing whatever quest she had seen on it before retreating onto one of the chairs in Martha's bar.As she waited for her headache to subside she heard the ramblings of three women, and once she turned to gaze at the source of the noise. It turned out they were following one particular man, who seemed to not want their attention."I have wives, ladies. I'm not searching for anymore." The man said as he backed away from the women that pursued him."C'mon don't be like that. C'mon Andy!!!" One of them screamed.He let out a nervous laugh as he mistakenly bumpe
