When Isabella and I woke up, we saw two maids waiting near the door.I thought we locked that...?"Mizik, didn't we lock the door?" Isabella said as she covered herself."Excuse me, but I don't like our privacy being violated like this. Why are you here?" I asked."To attend to your every need. We are to help you prepare for the day ahead by helping you get dressed," one of them said."And if Master Mizik would request anything of us in the process, we would be honored to attend to your needs... Just as that woman did last night..." The other said."I am more than capable of dressing myself. Leave the room at once," I said.The maids glared at Isabella and then left."I really hate your father's family..." Isabella said."Not as much as I do..." I replied.After we got out of bed, we found two sets of clothes waiting for us.Surprisingly, the dress provided for Isabella was actually of high quality. She didn't trust it, though. And instead, wore one of the outfits she kept in her inv
Isabella and I spent the next nine days at the mansion.Just as Alice had said, Tyranus never sent for us. We began pouring over as many books as possible to find out about my father in the meantime.After all, we had quite the case to form against Tyranus.Several times, we tried to leave the estate to speak with Sir Gordon, but we were told to stay nearby. Within the mansion, to be specific.Isabella and I might as well have been trapped here.At the same time, the maids of this mansion continued to try and seduce me. At times using...rather extreme methods. They tried repeatedly to humiliate Isabella.Threatening them and also covering for her was the most effective tactic that I had.At times, I could turn a devastating situation into something wonderfully romantic. I used this tactic often as it had a special effect on Isabella.She was more attached to me than ever now, and often clung to my arm adoringly.If she was cuddly before, now she refused to take her hands off of me.At
The next morning when we awoke, we saw two maids standing at the foot of our bed glaring at Isabella with envy in their eyes. Isabella got off of me and I immediately stood up.It should be noted that I was only wearing my underwear.The two women gasped as they saw me and stared at my chest."Master Mizik...why do you have so many scars!? Were you wounded in battle? You look so...manly!" One of them said."My sister-in-law did this to me. But that isn't important right now. What is important, is what I can do to convince you lovely ladies to help me out with something..." I said smoothly."M-master Mizik is interested in us!?" The other maid said excitedly."How could I not be when you keep throwing yourselves at me like that? But before I can make a move and feel comfortable about it, I need your help.""Yes! Whatever it is you ask, we will help you, Master Mizik!" One of them said."Excellent. I have decided to take my place as head of the family. To do this, I'll need to get into
The next day we awoke intending to leave the mansion and enlist our knights' help in taking care of Tyranus.In the hallway near the entrance, Amelia approached us."Mizik! Isabella! Thank the gods!" She said."Amelia? What's wrong?" I askedShe looked hesitant to answer for a moment."Mizik...the knights...the Kings officials...your servants...even Sir Gordon! I went down to the Inn to have a chat with them. Exchange information like I always do... I found them all dead!" she said.Mine and Isabella's eyes went wide."How is that possible!? Who killed them? Who could have been able to kill Sir Gordon of all people!?!?" Isabella said in a panic."I also found Lamarr dead in his room when I went to speak to him! He was drugged at some time last night, it seems. Mizik, Isabella, I worry that you two may also be in grave-""Danger?" A smooth yet commanding voice said behind us said.We turned and saw Tyranus standing with Alice at his side. She looked quite upset. She kept her head low a
I could feel my head hurting terribly as I slowly opened my eyes.This felt familiar...Far too familiar.I found myself once again chained to a wall in a cell. My hands were held above my head in magic suppression cuffs."What...where am I...?" I managed to say.I started having flashbacks to Cassandra's dungeon and fear began rising on my chest."Darling! You're finally awake!" Alice said as she stood up from a chair in the corner."Alice...what's going on here!? What did you do to me!? Where's Isabella!?" I said fearfully."Relax, dear. Tyranus wanted me to torture you to death but I want to show my love for you instead. Isabella is down the hall. She'll be enjoying some of the men who have had their eyes on her for a while now. You needn't worry. She won't disturb us this time," Alice said.Isabella!? No...you can't! Anything but that!Alice put her arms around my neck and pressed herself against me.At that time I realized that I was in my underwear.Alice leaned close and kissed
Once we found the exit, the two of us opened the door and found ourselves in the back yard of the estate. "Mizik, what should we do now?" Isabella asked."Kill Tyranus. I want to make that bastard pay for everything he's done..." I said."Even if we succeed, where will we go? Do you think he was telling the truth about Albatross?" Isabella said."I don't know. I can only hope that he wasn't. If he was, our world might really be doomed..." I said.I looked up at the night sky and then at the mansion."Wether or not our world is doomed, I'm going to kill that bastard and burn this place to the ground even if it's the last thing I ever do.""I'll support you. Rely on me for protection," Isabella said."I will. Let's go," I said.We walked around the front of the mansion.A few guards attacked us on sight, but they went down easily.Eventually, we entered through the front door and approached the main staircase in the main foyer.Amelia's body had already been removed. There was still a
"Walter Orthright... How pleasant to see you here. I had hoped that you would have perished in the tragedy that happened in Albatross. But I suppose I am once again disappointed," Tyranus said.Walter stood with Honor at the ready and smiled at Tyranus."You have no idea the things I've seen. The true power that the Black Ooze wields. Tyranus, stop this at once and aid us!" Walter said."No. I don't intend to help anyone but myself. The power of the Black Ooze will be mine. You are but an obstacle!"Walter turned to us and frowned."This man is beyond saving. Mizik, Isabella, give me the order and I shall execute him," he said."Walter, can you take him?" I asked.Walter glanced at Tyranus and shook his head with a sad smile."I can buy time for the two of you to escape. But I will be giving my life for it. I am sorry...that is all I can do at this point," he said.Damn it all..."Guards, please ensure that no one leaves here. I will handle Walter myself," Tyranus said."Then it's a d
I could feel immense power coursing through my body. For some reason, I could now grasp the energy flowing around Tyranus.It was immense...but I could knock it down to size. Vengeance could weaken him enough...Tyranus stood there shouting and yelling at Cassandra when suddenly, Arvild stepped forward."MIZIK, YOU BASTARD! GUARDS! KILL HIM!!!" Arvild screamed.Immediately, every single guard raised their weapons and ran straight at me.As I raised Vengeance, I could now read the runes on the blade.Then I took a deep breath and recited the words."VENGEANCE! HEAR MY CALL! HE THAT SLAYS THINE ENEMY IS THE VENGEFUL ONE!!!" I shouted mightily.There was a burst of power and it caused the guards to stumble. Then I extended my free hand. A second sword appeared in it. Completely identical to the first. I now understood another reason why Vengeance hated shields.He truly wasn't meant to use one.{New Ability Unlocked!}{Vengeance Form Two: Dual Wield!}{Class Up! Magic Knight > Arcane
