The Fractured Mage Chapter 85 - Luxuria(Part 5)
Point-of-View: Luxuria ———————————————————————————Well, that didn't go according to plan. How exactly did his Sloth Class suddenly reawaken like this? Actually, how'd it even become dormant in the first place? Wait, how does amnesia even work? I don't understand anything about what just happened back there.After I knocked him and that girl out, I dragged them to one of the houses in the town, one that, for some reason, just happened to have a room in the basement with chains on the walls. Since that worked out in my favor, I didn't really question it. I replaced the shackles with Ether blocking shackles, and then remembered that those don't work on him...except this time, they did. Our Classes of Sin start off at the Ascended Tier, and we all have the same Basic Tier as the Physical Class, Brawler. His Sloth Class, with the Ascended Tier Negater, allows him to negate Magic. So, when it comes to Ether-blocking shackles, it's kinda like forcing the same poles of two magnets togethe
The Fractured Mage Chapter 86 - Luxuria(Part 6)
"We're almost home, To," Lilac informed me, as we began descending down from the clouds."I see...," I muttered in response, barely paying attention, as my mind raced with several thoughts.About an hour had passed, and after Luxuria got away, I went around and freed all the townspeople from the effects of her control. Once that was done, Lilac and I left the town and headed back to Skyrouge City.But I couldn't focus on anything else, my thoughts were completely occupied by the memory fragments that had been triggered back there. It's an almost incoherent mass of random images, nothing concrete...it's barely answered any of my questions, and it's actually given me even more questions than I had before.I can see fragments of Luxuria, or at least, I think it's her...it's images of a kid that looks a lot like her, so it's probably her when she was younger. How long have I known her for? She can't be any older than five or six in these flashes of memories.There's also fragments of a ma

Point-of-View: Iris Lero———————————————————————————"I'm sorry...we held you back, didn't we? It probably would've been a lot easier for you if we hadn't been here," I remarked with an apologetic, frustrated grimace as I clenched my fists. "Yeah, I hate to admit it, but I wouldn't have stood a snowball's chance in hell against her...the whole time you were fighting her, I just felt so helpless and useless," Added Rex, gritting his teeth as he turned his gaze down. "Well, yes, there is some truth to that, I won't lie to you. But I'm not faultless either...I should've put up a defensive barrier around him as soon as she showed up, or at least after she began attacking. And I can't deny that I wasn't fighting as efficiently as what I'm capable of. Tch...I guess Master Ifeus was right, I really have gotten rusty," Muttered Sapphire with a sour look on her face. That was her when she's rusty? Then, just how powerful is she when she's at her best? "So, now what do we do? Do we go to Ob

"I see, that sounds like it must have been a pretty harrowing experience. I'm glad the both of you are okay, at least," Remarked Iris, as she slumped back in the couch and munched on a chip."Yeah, that could've ended up a lot worse than it did. It really helped that that girl, Luxuria, just kept talking. I probably wouldn't have broken free from her control otherwise," I replied with a grimace, before adding, "Anyway, based on what you said about your Quest, it sounds like things didn't go too much better for you."It was the next day, around 5 PM in the evening. Iris's group got back from their failed Quest early this morning, and she'd just woken up about half an hour ago. She had a bite to eat, and then joined Lilac and I in playing some board games. Before we long, we got to talking about our Quests yesterday... "It was a disaster...we failed to protect our client, and while I'm not too torn up about his death, he was a real asshole, the fact that I was so completely helpless to

"Uh...I don't know, this sounds really fishy," I frowned apprehensively."I understand your concerns, but I can assure you, this client is a trustworthy sort. The letter appears to be authentic, this is definitely his seal...so, I don't think there's anything to worry about," Replied Ifeus, placing a reassuring hand on my shoulder."Still...given what happened on the last Quest you sent me out on, I figured I'd have to stay cooped up at home for the foreseeable future," I sighed wistfully."Yes, you seem to be quite disappointed that that's not the case. The thought did cross my mind, of course, but no, I won't be doing that...it may be the safer option, but if you just stay at home indefinitely, you're not going to get very much stronger, Topaz. And with the way things have been going lately, you need to get as strong as possible, as fast as possible. And the best way to do that is to keep building your experience level," He surmised, a slightly conflicted look on his face.I mean, I
The Fractured Mage Chapter 90 - Ambushed(Part 1)
Well, this was a massive waste of time. What gives? The hell is going on here, anyway? I mean, seriously, who sent me that letter? Somehow, I don't think this was just some dumb prank... On the bright side, I get to go home now, and since Ifeus is here, I just need to meet back up with him and he can teleport me right back to Skyrouge City.So, at least I don't have to worry about taking the long journey back by carriage. Still though, I'm kinda pissed, I don't like that I just wasted a whole lot of time on nothing.As I walked down the street, muttering to myself irritably, I was snapped out of it as someone came jogging this way, trying to swerve out of the way as they closed in on me, but in their rush, failed to fully get out the way and ended up bumping into me, getting knocked down with an alarmed cry as I stumbled back a bit before regaining my balance."Uh, sorry about that, are you okay?" I inquired, offering my hand to help them up. It was a young woman, she was carrying a
The Fractured Mage Chapter 91 - Ambushed(Part 2)
I quickly set up an Ether-negating barrier over the alley, ducking as one of the people surrounding me flung a dagger at me, narrowly avoiding it. It's likely that all their weapons have been coated in poison, a single hit might be all it takes to kill me. This is bad...including the woman who'd tricked me, there's eight of them surrounding me right now. The odds are heavily stacked against me, I have absolutely no margin of error here..."How troublesome, it would seem as though we can't use our Magic," Remarked one of them, as they circled around me."It's not a problem. This is just a minor inconvenience, it's no great obstacle.""You know, I'm starting to feel kinda insulted!" I snapped, forming a ring of Ether around me before rapidly expanding it outwards towards them while narrowing and sharpening the edges of the ring.Some of them managed to duck under it, while the rest sprang above it to dodge the attack, several knives coming flying in towards me from multiple directions

Point-of-View: Lilac Lero———————————————————————————"Damn it, I miss To," I sighed irritably, feeling restless and impatient."Yes, I know, you've been saying that every single day, multiple times a day, for the last month. I'm sure he'll be back soon, try thinking about something else in the meantime," Responded Iris as she gave me a pat on the head."Don't patronize me, you stupid gorilla...""...just this once, I'll let that slide. But only once, got it?"Yeah, whatever. Today's the 15th of August, 505 PA, and we were currently on our way to the capital, Rosnoir City. There had been an immense spike in the number of Monsters around the capital, attacking around the outskirts of the city. Which is very unusual behavior for Monsters, they tend to dislike hunting in unfamiliar territory. Though, from what we've heard, they're not hunting, they're just attacking and killing without really eating the people they kill. Which is even more unusual and unnatural for Monsters. Even smal
