Chapter 11
We better have another mission today, I don't think Elsword's wallet can handle another double-date I think to myself as I walk to school with Raven.
"I hope we have an actual mission today, my fighting senses are tingling!" again with the mind-reading!
"You spent a lot of money on me yesterday!" I exclaim.
"So, how's Whacky?" he grumbles.
"It didn't hurt that much when I threw him in your face did it?" I ask.
"It didn't hurt, I was just shocked" he defends himself.
"Awww, I won't laugh if you cry" I give him a hug.
"I don't cry" he states.
"We'll just see about that…" I trail off darkly.
I see Rena and Elsword approaching.
"Hiya, Rena!" I wave.
"What about me?" Elsword complains.
"Fine. Hiya, Elsna!" I say cheekily.
He frowns at me.
"Or do you prefer Relsword?" I giggle.
"I like Relsword." says Rena, "Do you prefer Raisha or Aiven?".
"Raisha, please!" I reply.
"Do we get a say in this?" the boys say in unison.
Rena and I share a glance at each other "No".
"Let's go get our quest!" Elsword suggests.
We all walk over to the bulletin board, where the teacher is waiting for us.
"Ah, here for your quest?" she asks.
We all nod.
"Hmmm, today's quest is to defeat Berthe of the Altar of Dedication." she explains.
"Ok!" we all say in unison.
We head over to Feita, where we start killing all the monsters in the usual fashion. Finally, we reach the top of the tall tower.
"There's Berthe!" says Elsword.
"Strategy?" I question.
"He looks like a wolf… so I guess he howls" Raven notes, "Watch out for that".
We all start hitting Berthe with all our might. Berthe summons back up, but I just steal their mana and teleport past as usual. Rena uses a gungnir which makes Berthe angry. He howls which damages everyone. I'm glad I have mana shield for protection.
I shoot a lightning bolt at Berthe. He doesn't howl this time. Elsword uses phoenix talon and this time he does. Elsword and Rena seem pretty hurt now. I've got my mana shield and I know Raven's pretty tough. While I'm distracted, someone has delivered another big blow onto Berthe. I he keeps howling like this, we might not make it, the thought of not returning home stings.
All of a sudden, Berthe is running around slashing everyone. Rena and Elsword can't handle much more, with their lack of armour. I send a plasma cutter at Berthe. He howls again, and it hits me. 300mp attacks will make him howl.
I see Rena and Elword have fallen from this last howl. I see Elsword look over at Rena lying on the ground. He seems angry now and tries to get up with no luck. Raven and I are the only ones left fighting now. Rena…Elsword. I start to tear up.
Raven glances at me, only to see me crying. This makes him rage. He's slashing and punching that monster as hard as possible. I shake away my tears and keep fighting.
"Don't use 300mp attacks! They make him howl!" I almost scream.
But too late. Raven uses a nuclear on Berthe which makes him howl again. I protect myself with my mana shield, but I still get damaged. I zap Berthe with another lightning bolt. Suddenly, a giant rock comes out of the ground and is hurled at me. I fall down, still be crushed by the rock. I can't move.
Raven is even angrier by now. He has to fight all on his own now.
I see a strange bat thing appear in front of me.
"Who are you?" I whisper.
"Angkor, would you like to sign this contract?" a contract and pen appear too.
"Why? What are the conditions?" I'm so confused.
"You want to protect your friends and kill that monster right?" it asks.
I nod.
"Well, I'll give you more power if you carry me around and wear what I tell you, deal?" it explains.
I pick up the pen and sign the contract. Everything starts to change!
What's going on?
I feel myself being lifted off the ground. My clothes start to change! My dark magician's dress splits in half. The top half mostly forms out into long cupped sleeves and the rest forms a strip to cover my breasts. The bottom half transforms into a short skirt that extends at the back. My shoes start to change into long boots, which make up for the lack of skirt. My hair grows longer into to spiky pigtails. I watch my precious staff as it grows an axe-like thing on the end. A bat is neatly on the end attached to the axe. I'm put back on the ground.
"Go!" I hear a voice say.
I jump up and shoot a chained ball at Berthe. It hits it's mark and launches Berthe up in the air. He seems old now, all stiff and such. I catch him in another new technique. This time, Angkor appears overhead and starts spewing darkness. He seems caged and I take this chance to send a dark ball. I'm whacking him with my staff now. Suddenly, the Angkor on my staff extends and I bash Berthe with it like a hammer, before I spin in the air doing continuous damage. I finish him off with a plasma cutter.
I rush over to Raven "Are you ok?".
"I'm the one who should be worried" he smirks, "What happened to you?".
"I signed a contract with Angkor." I point to the bat on the end of my staff.
"We should go check on the other two!" he says alarmingly.
I rush over to Rena "Rena, are you ok?".
She opens her eyes slowly "Did we win?".
"Yes, but that doesn't answer my question!" I stammer.
"I'm fine then, as long as we won!" she smiles.
I smile back.
"What happened to you?" she's confused, "You look different".
"I got to my 3rd class!" I almost squeal.
"I knew you could do it!" her smile widens.
I see Elsword jump up and start coming towards us.
"Rena! Are you ok?" he's worried.
He looks at me.
"What the hell happened to you?" he looks shocked.
"I got to 3rd class" I explain.
Elsword picks up Rena and starts to carry her. It's the first time I've seen him so sad and worried.
"Thanks, Elsword" she smiles weakly at him.
Raven takes my hand.
"I take it you don't need carrying?" he raises an eyebrow at me.
"You could piggy-back me!" I offer.
He laughs then crouches down.
"Get on, then" he orders.
I climb on his back and he stands up.
"Now!" I say, "Take me to school, horsey!".
"You could just teleport" he sighs.
"But that's not nearly as much fun" I giggle.
We catch up to Elsword and Rena. When we get back to school, we report to the teacher.
"I'm sorry, but I can't give everyone a good grade this time" she sighs, "Rena and Elsword, you get F's, Raven, you get an A and Aisha… SS!".
I feel bad getting such a good grade when Elsword and Rena didn't, they worked so hard!
Everyone thanks me for saving them, but I just tell them it was all thanks to them. I wave goodbye to Elsword who will be carrying Rena home.
"Don't have too much fun!" I wink at them and they blush.
I start walking home with Raven.
"So what are you know?' he asks me.
"Hmmmm" I start to think. I'm really not sure!
"You're Void Princess now!" A voice in my head says, "You now have the powers of the void".
"Void Princess!" I smile at Raven.
Thanks. But who are you?
"It's me" says the voice, "Angkor, the Demon God".
Are you always gonna intrude my thoughts now?
"I wouldn't say intrude" Angkor says, "More like guide".
"So do I get my reward for helping you now?" Raven snaps me back into reality.
"We'll see" I wink at him.
Asuna: Yay! She's a Void Princess!
Aisha: About time!
Rena: Am I gonna be ok?
Elsword: As long as I'M here you will –smirks-
Chung: Am I gonna be back in the story again?
Asuna: Probably not. Rena hates you now.
Chung: I thought you liked me Asuna! –whimpers-
Rena: Girls stick together!
Girls: -high fives-
Aisha: So you like my new outfit Raven?
Raven: Well, your breasts have gotten kinda bigger…
Aisha: -screams and slaps Raven-
Eve: I think that was mean to be a compliment…
Asuna: Look out for chapter 12! Is Aisha going to keep the promise she made Raven in chapter 8? Did you just go back to chapter 8 to check or decided to do it after I finish talking? Is Elsword going to do anything while taking care of Rena? Find out in chapter 12!
