The area was blinding white as Negi Springfield, teacher to class 3-A and mage in training, quickly recovered from the initial attack that Fate Averruncus had launch on him after Konoka healed him.
"What are you doing here?" Negi demanded.
"Our meeting here was completely concindendential. I can say that you are not my target this time." Fate muttered.
Behind Negi stood his allies Kotarou Inugami, Anya Cocolova, Yue Ayase, Asuna Kagurazaka, Chachamaru Karakuri, Ku Fei, Konoka Konoe, Setsuna Sakurazaki, Haruna Saotome, Kaede Nagase, the ghost Sayo Aisaka, Kazumi Asakura as they stood at the ready with their weapons to either aid Negi or fight off Fate's allies.
"What are your plans! I will stop them!" Negi announced.
"Unfortunatly for you, we are already finished our mission." Fate muttered as several stone pillars slammed into the Gateport.
Underneath everyone's feet, including the feets of the non combatants Ako Izumi, Akira Okochi, Yuna Akashi, Makie Sasaki standing quite some distance away.
"What's this?" Asuna exclaimed.
"Forced Transportation spell!" Negi yelled as he returned his gaze to Fate.
"I see the summer heat has affected you. Your reality after this is my gift to you." Fate muttered as he prepared to teleport away.
Just then, black aura surrounded the area of the force transporation spell as Fate suddenly looked alarmed.
"What's this?" Fate muttered as his teleportation spell failed.
"Negi, what's happening?" Kotaru yelled.
"I don't know. Just grab to each other and hold on!" Negi yelled as the teleportation spell laced with black aura took effect and absorbed everything within the circle.
***Shadow Realm, Erinn***
It was tiring for the Millitian Eile. The Alrich Kingdom has ordered her to enter the Shadow Realm and stop the transmutation of the demon blade Claimh Solias. What she didn't expect was Cai to be among the group of formor as a captive.
"Cai! Hang on!" Eile yelled as she ran up behind the group. The green hair armor claded alchemist rammed into the closest Shadow Wizard as she unleashed watery hell to her enemies. Cai, seeing his chance, aided Eile adding his Water Cannon skill to hers and soon enough, the group laid defeated infront of them.
"Why are you here Eile?" Cai asked.
"Leymore asked me to help you as a friend." Eile replied.
"He still calls me his friend after all I did." Cai muttered to himself.
"Let's hurray. We have to stop Claimh Solias' Transmutation.' Eile muttered.
What happened after that would haunt Eile's mind for the next few days. The two alchemist managed to reach the transmutation site of Claimh Solias. While Eile fought off the shadow minnions, Cai prepared ice mines to influnence the transmutation for failure. The explosion blasted Cai backward as Cai smiled. The smile faded as Claimh Solias emerged from the black hole and knocked him backward.
"What the! I thought the transmutation ended in failure!" Eile exclaimed.
"True. But Claimh Solias has evolved." a voice rang out.
In front of both Eile and Claimh Solias, a humanoid robed being with white wings on it's back appeared.
"What do you mean and who are you?" Eile muttered.
"I'm saying a little explosion of ice will not be enough to hinder it's transmutation. But I am suprised. It has been a long time that you have seen the God of Formor, Chichol." Chichol muttered.
Around Eile and Claimh Solias, a thirty foot high stone wall with a roof enclosed them. Eile backed up slightly as she prepared a Water Cannon shot in her cylinder while Chichol vanished in a poof.
"Great. I got one giant fomor to deal with and no aid from Cai. What else can go wrong?" Eile muttered as claimh Solias roared.
A sudden explosion erupted behind Eile as she turnned to see what could be appearing behind her. The black energy faded as a boy with a suit appeared with a girl beside him.
"Negi!" Asuna exclaimed.
"Asuna-san." Negi exclaimed.
"Hey, who are you guys?" Eile muttered.
Negi and Asuna turnned to see Eile and Claimh Solias.
"What's this thing!" Asuna exclaimed.
"How did you get here? Wait, that can wait for now. Can you guys fight?" Eile asked quickly as Claimh Solias prepared to attack.
"We can." Negi replied.
"Names?" Eile asked.
"Asuna Kagurazaka. Adeat." Asuna replied as a giant sword emerged in place of the card she whiped out.
"Negi Springfield." Negi muttered as he got into a battle stance.
"Well then Negi, Asuna. Let's take down this demon." Eile muttered as she unleashed a Water Cannon at Claimh Solias.
It shrugged the attack off as Asuna rushed in and started attacking Solias. Each strike leaves a decent size cut in the demon as Negi rushed in to fight with Asuna.
"Fuka Hoken!" Negi yelled as he punched at Claimh Solias.
A beam of energy erupted from Negi's fist and slammed into Solias causing it to collapse.
"That's it. It's dead." Eile muttered as she walked up to Negi and Asuna.
"What was that thing?" Asuna asked turnning to Eile.
"The Demon Blade, Claimh Solias." Eile muttered.
"I thought it would be more of a sword." Negi muttered looking at the fallen demon.
Just then, black energy wraped around the demon as swords grew out of it's back.
"What the!" Asuna exclaimed backing up.
"Umm. Kai, you might wanna hurry up and break this wall. claimh Solias is back up and it's even more deadilier now." Eile muttered as she reloaded her cylinder.
A few seconds later, the roof shattered as the sky revealed itself. Eile smiled as she took out a horn.
"Get back!" Eile said as she blew into the horn.
Negi and Asuna ran to the way opposite of Claimh Solias with Eile running behind them. Just in time, metors crashed into Claimh Solias instantly killing it. The wall behind the trio collapsed to reveal Cai, another man and women. Cai was the first to spot Eile.
"Eile. You're ok!" Cai muttered.
"Yeah. I'm thankful you and Leymore broke the roof when you did." Eile muttered.
Leymore walked forward and smiled.
"I have Jenna to thank for. We managed to beat the formorian forces back just enough to make it here." Leymore said.
Jenna stepped forward.
"The real hero is you Eile. But I have a question. Who are those two behind you?" Jenna asked.
Leymore looked behind the trio and saw energy gathering to Claimh Solias.
"Look out! It's going to self detruct!" Leymore exclaimed as he prepared to use alchemy.
Eile rushed infront of everyone and planted herself there while pulling out a shield.
"I'm not going to make it!" Leymore exclaimed.
Negi placed both hand infront of him.
"Deflectio!"
Claimh Solias exploded as the shockwave bounced off of Negi's shield that encased the group. Everyone turned to Negi.
"What spell was that?" Cai asked amazed.
"It's a magic hprmhhhh...' Negi started to answer when Eile placed her hand on him.
"It's nothing. Negi, Asuna. Let's get out of here." Eile replied as she pulled out a small crystal and threw it at the ground.
The crystal shattered as it's light surrounded Eile, Negi, and Asuna. Soon enough, the trio emerged at a stone circle. Negi and Asuna looked around as Eile beckoned them to follow. They followed Eile to a tree on the outskirts of as Negi and Asuna sat down.
"Before anyone else asks you, I want to know some things myself. Where did you two come from? I entered the shadow realm myself and yet you appeared in it without me knowing. Are you two milliteans as well?" Eile questioned.
"Millitans?" Asuna asked.
"People like me, who are from another world summoned by the Goddess Morrighan to fight against the formors." Eile answered.
"Morrighan? Formors?" Negi asked.
That got Eile thinking as she paced the tree.
"Is this the first time you heard those terms?" Eile asked.
The pair nodded.
"Tell me then. Where did you two come from?" Eile said.
"We came here from the Gateport after an attack due to a force teleportation spell enfused with some black aura. My group must have gotten scattered during the forced teleportation." Negi answered.
"When you say group, how many people exactly?" Eile asked.
"Including me and Asuna-san, seventeen all together." Negi replied.
"Great. Fifteen people lost within Erinn. Not to count dungeons, tir na nog, or the shadow realm." Eile muttered.
"Can we find them all?" Asuna asked worried slightly.
"Stick with me. I travelled all of Erinn. We'll find them." Eile answered with a slight smile as night came in.
The trio got up and walked into the city and soon enough, found an inn for the night. After paying for their rooms, Eile turnned to Negi and Asuna.
"Stay here for the night. The city we are in is the Alchemist City Taillteann. We'll start searching for your friends in the morning." Eile said as she handed Negi and Asuna their keys.
"What about you?" Negi asked.
"I'm a Millitian. I don't need sleep as much as you two do." Eile said as she left the two.
Soon enough, Asuna and Negi turnned in for the night. Outside, Eile sighed as she pulled out a map. The entire world mapped out on the dirt as Eile skimmed over each town she has been to.
"Where in Erinn do you scatter fifteen people? I guess we'll start the search here." Eile muttered as her finger landed on a city east of Taillteann.
"Dunbarton, crossroad of the warriors."
