Dean had finally regained his composure and decided to look for Mara. He searched nearly everywhere but couldn't find her.

Before giving up, he asked a servant, who told him that whenever Mara wanted to be alone, she would head to the top of the castle.

Dean decided to go there and met Mara sitting on a bench, looking at the city view below.

Dean decided to approach her slowly, and when he got close, he saw tears rolling down from Mara's eyes as she stared ahead.

Dean took a seat beside her and looked at the city view from above, taking in its vastness.

"You know, when I lost my dad, I was just eight years old," Mara said, her voice barely above a whisper.

"He used to take me on trips and vacations. We'd have such a good time together, but death was cruel to take him away from me. Do you think that's what will happen to my mom?"

Dean felt a pang of uncertainty, unsure of how to respond. He didn't want to say something that might make things worse, but he wanted to be honest and co

    Somewhere in a forest, a round pod was seen dropping from the dark sky at a great speed and it slowed down just before it was about to hit the ground and landed calmly. A young man could be seen standing there with a curious look as he watched the strange round object staying there for some seconds before a part of it opened. This was something Dean had never seen before so he took out his sword and readied himself for whatever was to come out of that thing.The pod opened and two humanoid figures stepped out. They almost looked like humans but their pointy ears and their long tails gave away their difference. When Dean looked closely he saw that they were both females and they had few scales on their faces, arms, and legs; as for their body, he could only guess. Their clothes were made of a strange material he had never seen before, and they both held some flat things in their hands which had light glowing from it."What is going on here, what are these creatures?

    Dean had finished eating and continued forward, but he mistakenly stepped in front of a door that automatically opened. This time, the door didn't require a voice command. Dean looked inside and saw naked male creatures, some wearing only boxers. He was surprised by their well-built bodies, with every muscle in the right place."Hey, watch it, man! This is a private place.” One said in anger, then he turned to his friend, “Zacker, I told you to set the door on voice command,"“I will, right away sir,” the other replied."I apologize, it was my mistake," Dean said before leaving."Is it just me, or did that dude look strange?" one of the creatures asked."Yeah, he did look strange. It seemed like he had no tail," another creature replied, flexing his muscles."No tail?" The creatures exchanged realization-filled glances.Dean quickly moved away, not walking but almost running. He heard a voice behind him: "Hey, stop." Not wanting to look back, Dean started running faster. The creat

What is this device that they are trying to power up?’ Dean asked himself.However he didn't say anything but decided to step forward to perform his magic duty. He thought to himself, 'I don't yet know how my magic works; it usually activates by itself whenever I think about defending myself. So, I'll just follow that trend.'Dean began by stretching his body, like warming up for a fight. Everyone was quiet, thinking it was part of the magic trick.

    Somewhere in a mighty ship, in one of its great halls, blood could be seen everywhere, and a human boy was standing there, looking at a Zetroit man. Dean had fought against nearly all the soldiers that were present in that room.Captain Tony couldn't believe his eyes at how powerful and strong Dean had become after consuming the crystal. "You defeated about 300 of my armed soldiers, and that too in a short time? You are truly a great wizard."Dean had regained control over himself, so he decided to leave the place. He headed towards where he once saw the exit. Dean noticed that his ears had gotten sharper in hearing, and his eyes could see even the most tiny object on the ground, even in the dark corners, in detail. All his senses had been enhanced, and he could even feel when someone was behind him, even from meters away.Dean couldn't believe what he had become as the images of what his body was doing when he was not in control flashed in his memories. Dean opened the exit door

    Dean never understood what was going on so he placed his hand on his head and moved outside slowly. "I am sorry but you will have to come with us now, because you are putting the life of civilians in danger." Said a police officer. 'Don't go with them, they will do something terrible to you again.' The voice of the system in Dean's head told him. "I am sorry but I can not follow you all. I am not a monster, I haven't hurt anyone yet. I am just a person like you but from another race. I was captured and brought here without my consent." Dean replied to the police officers. "Then you leave us no other choice but to forcefully take you with us." The police officers started firing out electric guns and tasers in order to paralyse Dean.-- ((Your HP is getting low. Temporal Magic shield have been activated. Now look for a safe spot.)) --Dean looked around to determine the best way to escape and he decided that it would be safer he leaped out of there. Dean leaped up in the air and t

Dean watched both father and son, just thinking to himself that the Zetroit are not that different from the humans."Dad, who is that strange person?" Little General asked. "He might be strange, but he is a very good person, he is called Dean. Why don't you say hi?" The big General requested."Hi, I am called little General Luke."

Little General Luke, sat in the sitting room just looking at Dean and not saying anything.-- ((Avoid eye contact)) --'Huh? What do you mean?' Dean asked the voice in his head.

Dean and the Duchess kept stepping backwards as the man was advancing towards them. "You thought you locked me up in this cell, but I was just waiting here patiently to reach this form, and here I am. I have you to thank, but I'm sorry I must complete my mission now." The man said as he charged towards Dean and the Duchess at a great speed. Dean had received a quest that he should save the Duchess's life, so he readied himself. The shadow man charged forward at a great speed. Dean sent his hand forward to deliver a punch, but when the punch made contact, his hand passed through the man's body, and the man was nowhere to be seen. Dean felt a punch on his back, which sent him skidding some feet away. Dean looked at the man and noticed that

On the inside was a man who had strange features on him, making him look like a humanoid beast.Despite all his fierce features, Dean didn't feel a little scared at all. Dean was surprised by this. It seemed like since he had acquired the system, his feelings had gotten colder and his emotions were under control, or one could say vanishing slowly.The shadow infected man looked at Dean with the eyes of a predator. His breathing was heavy like that of a large animal. Both Dean and the beast man just stood there for some time, looking at each other, not saying a word, like one was waiting for the other to speak.With closer inspection, Dean could notice that this was the assassin who had almost taken away the Duchess's life. “So he was infected by the Shadow Plague.

Why didn't it work?’Dean hesitated, unsure of how to explain. "Somehow it seems like you can't be marked. I don't know why."Mara's expression softened. "It's okay, Dean. We'll figure it out later."Dean nodded, trying to reassure her. "I'll check out my abilities, see if I can craft something for you."He asked Mara about her preferred weapon, and she replied without hesitation. " Really? You can do that? I'm best with dual short swords."Dean's eyes lit up with a plan. "I'll make you the best pair of short swords you've ever wielded."However, when he presented his idea to the s

The shadow disease has deep roots that lead back to a shadow God. Whoever or whatever it is, it needs to be stopped. And that's why I am really here.” Dean explained.The princess was surprised to hear the information, but she showed no signs of anger.Next, Dean wanted to test out what the princess could do at the moment with her ability and how she could help him achieve his goal, so they both headed out to the palace garden to search for an insect or animal.The duo arrived at the palace garden where they first met in search of an animal.

And to his surprise, the princess was very happy about it."I had been training so hard, but I was not getting any better, while my siblings were growing every day in every way. My father doesn't like me that much too, and I have become a laughing stock among my siblings. But with this new strength and ability that you promise, I will be able to grow again." The princess said happily.Dean's expression became serious.” You know that magic is forbidden, right? So we'll have to keep this a secret.” He explained and Kora nodded with understanding.“Got it, Master.” she said with a thumbs up."For now, your abilities and mine cannot fully function because we need to get a crystal which is found in this palace, so I will need your help." Said Dean."In this palace?" "Yes, it is found in an underground secret room in your father's chambers. All I need you to do is to fin

Thought Dean.The third target was placed much further away and the target board was on a spinning wheel.

Dean, instead of sweating, had a smile on his face as he cooked. The girl, on the other hand, stood some distance away, folding her arms while looking at Dean's every move.'What is this strange boy up to? What sort of new recipe is he trying to make? I am a princess of this Kingdom, and I have tasted all types of recipes both far and near, but none were prepared using this process.'
