There was a knock on the door and when Fraser opened it, he found that it was Kyllan who was standing outside the door. He opened the door wide to let him enter as he walked back into the living room. He had gone through the whole house since he got there and he found that there were two rooms in the house for some reason. It was such a weird design unless he would share it with someone else.Seeing the nature of this place, it was a possibility so he did not write off the possibility of something like that happening."Please have a seat", he invited Kyllan to take a seat on one of the chairs.Kyllan smiled and took a seat. Fraser also took a seat just opposite him. As soon as he sat down, Kyllan started the conversation by asking a question."What do you think of this house?""It's very nice. I am grateful for it. I'll thank the Queen when I see her""That's nice to hear. You can rest at ease, the house is all yours. I am sure you saw the second room; that design is the standard tha
Aiden was very annoyed but he kept his face stoic, with no expression whatsoever."You have yourself a ten-minute break before we start sparring"Aiden did not make a sound. All he did was walk over to a bench and took a seat. His muscles were aching and his face so desperately wanted to twist due to the annoyance but he managed to keep himself under control.He watched as Princess Diane walked up to the weapons rack, picked up a bow and quiver filled with arrows before walking up to the shooting range not too far away. Aiden had not gotten enough time to check how the training area was designed earlier but now, he began noticing the very different things this training area had that the general training ground did not.First off was the weapons. The quality of them in the general training ground was nowhere near the level of fidelity that the ones here had.Aiden could not observe the differences because Princess Diane had started shooting. Her targets were the marks, a distance tha
Later that day, Aiden woke up from a long and deep sleep. He had spent the whole time after he returned from the royal training area, asleep.What he went through with Princess Diane was no simple routine. He had pushed his body to the limit.It also gave him the drive to do things on his own terms. What better way would he get to survive this torture than to become a 1st order Arcana like everyone else?That was the event and he had made a plan to bring it all to reality; starting with a quick visit to the healer in the infirmary.He'd gotten breakfast at the very least, so he still had something in him to fuel his body.Being a place he had been to already, Aiden quickly arrived at the infirmary. He met a nurse there who was tending to someone else. He waited for her to finish that before he asked her, "good afternoon miss, I was told to ask for the general healer's office"The woman looked at him for a few seconds before she pointed to a hallway he found familiar. "Last office on
The old man looked around some more, getting up to his feet a few moments later and returning the halberd to its proper position. He walked up to the arch that Aiden had just jumped through, taking a close look at it.Behind that wall, Aiden could see what was happening on the other side and the sight of the old man's face in real life terrified him quite a bit. It felt like the old man could see through the wall at him and he was given a huge fright when the old man stretched out his hand to the wall just like he did a few moments prior.His heart had leaped into his throat when he saw the old man's hand hit a solid wall.[” Why are you scared? Did you forget who the spirit of this building is?"]Aiden was jolted awake from his reverie by a snarky comment from Darwyn."You have been living with him for centuries, I have not. Don't judge me"["Fine, I'll find him something else to do"]Aiden did not understand what this meant until he saw the old sage pause as if he was frozen in pl
He hurried over to check when he heard Darwyn's voice.["Congratulations. You're off to a smashing start, Arcana of Chaos and Void"]Aiden did not understand or more importantly his mind chose not to believe the gravity of that statement until he was staring straight into the cauldron."Isn't it supposed to be just a light grey-colored liquid when it's complete?", Aiden asked.["Don't forget your choice of ingredients. The one I showed you used normal ingredients. I have not seen a potion show up in this form before"]"Then how do you know it's good!?!"["I can feel it. My deductions don't tell me that it is anything bad..."]What Aiden was looking at was not a potion. It looked more like a pill with its round shape. Its color was a dark grey with little sparkling things in it."Tarren... Is that what you tried to make?", Miss Riordan asked.Aiden had forgotten that he had a person beside him while he was screaming at Darwyn."I'm not sure but it should be the one"Unexpectedly, what c
Aiden had gotten his arm ripped off by a swipe from the Briwyns limb as he passed by it with a slash.Unsurprisingly, the long cut on the Briwyns side began to heal as well. In a few seconds, both wounds had been completely healed.Like maniacs, the two were aiming at each other's heads in an instant. The Briwyn used its tail as a very effective whip that made Aiden dodge and weaves around it. There was no point cutting the tail because it would regrow in almost an instant.This was an annoyance as he tried to hit the Briwyn harder, to deal even more damage. The tusk of the Briwyn continued to swipe at Aiden, intending to pierce through or break him if it could.This battle continued for a few minutes with so many wounds opened and healed on both of them in almost no time.The fight was getting frustrating when Aiden found an opening. He immediately took it. He cut through the tail first, and leaped onto the beast's head, narrowly avoiding its tusk in the process. This gave him a he
Fraser took a glance at Randell before he turned to keep climbing."Thank you", he said as he continued on his way.Randell's face twisted when he saw Fraser's nonchalant attitude but Fraser had taken those words to heart. Not for the fact that they were threats but because there was truth in it.Fighting a rat in its natural home could be troublesome with the hundreds of entrances it would have to its hideouts. One would need to know the rat's behavior and tendencies when it was threatened.Putting Randell in the back of his mind, Fraser climbed up the small branches he could see as he made his way to the bigger branch.Thirty minutes into the climb, he stumbled into his first encounter. He had noticed the existence of something living there because there was rustling that immediately stopped when he showed up.His first impression, this creature had extremely good senses and it would be near impossible to sneak up on, especially when he couldn't even see it.He would have left it wi
On a bed, in a room somewhere in the infirmary, Aiden's eyelids fluttered. His fingers flexed ever so slightly as Miss Riordan watched him from a corner in the room with bated breath.She had been sitting there for hours by this point and at the moment, it was early in the morning. This was the first sign she saw that told her Aiden was recovering. He had been motionless, with no significant signs of life ever since she brought him out of the Alchemy room. With this tiny movement, she let out a long breath of air, she had no idea she was holding in for so long.~Aiden's figure that had been assembled opened its eyes. His eyes looked like they had a swirling grey storm in his pupils. The figure turned around, floating with all the grace in the world as it faced the red point of light that had once more cracked down the middle and was repairing itself.The difference this time was that the red point no longer looked red. It had shrunk and turned into a white glowing memory point jus
