Chapter 4:Start of Action
(Tristain Academy Of Magic)
"Stupid familiar,where have you been all night!"Louise yells over Saito but the commander ignores it. The two walks at the hallway leading to dining hall while Louise scolded her familiar but not before Louise see an irritating sight for her,a tan skinned red haired woman with big breast.A disturbingly well endowed woman along with her familiar,her familiar was a red salamander with a small flame on a tip of it's tail.
'Charmander?'Saito thought about it when he saw a giant red lizard familiar.
"Oh hey Louise,having trouble of controlling your familia-I mean recruiting a commoner to be your familiar. Wait it's obvious though,zero talent in magic can't even summon a right familiar,Ohohohoho."The red haired woman laughingly mocks at Louise. The pinkette clenched her fist in anger and mutters.
"Grrr..stupid cow."She muttered.
"For your information I really did summon him as my familiar!"And yells.
"Come on here familiar,we don't wasting time on a nuisance like her "Louise spat and proceeds to walk only notices that her familiar is not following. Stops in her steps she turns around and saw the commander having interaction with his fellow familiar,knelt down and observing it.
'So charmander really exist,is he gonna be evolve into charizard,I wonder?'Saito thought rubbing his chin staring at the salamander.
"Pretty cute isn't it. Behold my familiar Flame from the fire dragon mountains,a right familiar matches for my hot flaming sensation."The red haired girl proudly presented her familiar.
"Fire dragon mountains?Quite obvious place for a fire lizard to live."Saito states and heard a freaking shouts rang through his ears came from his master.
"STUPID FAMILIAR!Your really defying my orders!Uuurgh...why are you talking with that STUPID COW!"Louise yells Saito just only sigh as he stands up and approach his master.
"Will you please stop calling me like that I had enough of it. Besides we cannot start a good relationship if you treated me like that."Saito said to Louise.
"Your my familiar,you must listen to my orders but instead you rejected it!"Louise retorted unto him.
"As I said yesterday,if you want me to obey you then prove it if you are worthy of my loyalty. You need to learn to respect others and that's I will going to do."Saito stated it makes Louise stared on him.
"What do you mean by that?"Louise questionably stared at him.
"Let's say that is my first action as your familiar."Saito said grinly looks sent Louise to shivers as she remembers the same thing yesterday evening.
(Moments Later)
Saito wandering around the school in searching for the kitchen or mess hall hoping to find some food to eat. He leaves Louise at the dining hall where students eating breakfast with there familiar except for Saito as he pissed and protested not eating piece of what seems for him a trash food on a plate Louise serve on him under the table. On his searching he ends up meeting Siesta,a maid he met yesterday.
"Mr. Saito?Why are you here?"Siesta asks as she saw the commander looking around.
"Ah Siesta right?I'm looking for the kitchen. Do you know where it's located?"Saito asks the maid.
"You must be hungry,come I lead you there."Siesta said and told the commander to follow her. The two made to the kitchen and Siesta prepares him some food which Saito thanks for it and starts eating.
"So ,why are you not with your master,the familiars with their masters are having breakfast at the dining hall so why you not there?"Siesta asking him about it.
"Nah,I didn't like the atmosphere there and the food they serve for the familiars are gross. I'm a human not an animal."Saito shrugged as he continues eating. After a moment,Saito finishes his breakfast and give his gratitude of thanks to the cook and Siesta for the food before he takes his leave.
(Royal Palace Of Tristain)
"Forgive me ma'am,I decline."Zarić said straightforward.
"W-why?"Henrietta asks of why Zarić rejected her offer.
"Maybe I"ll be useful in some other fields rather than being member of this musketeer corps."Zarić states.
"Hmmm...so in what field do you want to work for me then?"Henrietta asks her in which field she wanted to be assign.
"I want to assign in the military your highness,I was a general in where I came from so I'm well verse in that field."The general said her request.
"Youre a general?"Henrietta bit surprise on what she heard.
"Indeed your highness,don't you see my outfit?"Zaric answered.
"How can you attain that rank?Youre a commoner right?Are they grant that rank to even a commoner in where you came?"Questions that Henrietta asks as she wondered what nation where her familiar hailed which the general just sighs on it.
"Your highness in where I came from,anyone in the military could attain that rank if you work hard on it. Of course I become a general because of hardwork eventhough I have a gifted skills in warfare and also in strategic battlefield tactics so I already a general in my young age."Zarić explained to her.
"I see...I'm pretty sure youre not lying because base on your uniform it has some many medals on it telling me that you are a higher officer in the army."Henrietta said and she continues.
"But...I'm worried that the staffs will against on that. They will not allow a commoner to be an officer of the military so..."Zarić raises her hand to cut her off.
"Don't worry ma'am I'll handle it. Just assign me there and I'll do the rest,if you agreed with that I will tell you my plan."Zarić said to her with assurance.
"Okay,If you insist then I'll accept your request,I hope that you know what your doing...very well let me hear your plan..."Henrietta said accepting the request and now wanted to hear it's plan.
(Orphanage House,In The Deep Forested Area Of Albion)
[Knock],[Knock]
"Umm... mr. Stanford,breakfast is ready."Tiffania knocks the door and calls the commander inside the room. In a short moment the commander opens the door and Tiffania saw him now wearing typical commoner clothing.
"Good morning miss Tiffania,thank you for this clothes that you provide for me."Stanford greets and thanked her for the clothes and now he proceeds to the table as Tiffania called the kids into the other room. Stanford,Tiffania,and the orphans are currently having a breakfast,while eating,Stanford and Tiffania are having some conversation.
"Um... ,sorry if I ask you about this but yesterday you told me that you are a commander,is it true?"Tiffania asks bit skeptical of Stanford being a commander but don't want to offend him.
"Yes I am miss Tiffania,I know that you still have a doubt but I'm really a commander,you can judge it by my uniform I wore yesterday."Stanford replied on her.
"I see,sorry if I'm bit skeptic on what you said to me but when I saw the uniform that you wear before it has a symbol of an eagle and some emblems that any nations not use here so I assured that you are not from any of that."Tiffania added.
"I understand...but to clear your thoughts I will ellaborate it to you as your servant..First of all,I'm not from this world miss Tiffania,thats the reason why the eagle symbol in my uniform is new to you."Stanford explains it to her which in return a shock face formed on Tiffania.
"Y-youre not from this world!"Tiffania said and shock from what just she heard on her familiar.
"Absolutely miss Tiffania,I'm not really in this world because from where I come from there's only one moon in the sky not two that I see in the night earlier."Stanford explained it to Tiffania and the the kids butted in to there conversation.
"Really mister!Youre not from our world!"One of the kids speaks as all of the kids shot a look of amazement on him.
"Mister what is your world look like please tell me tell me!"Another kid excitedly said to him. Before he being bombarded by lots of questions coming from the childrens,he immediately said.
"Okay kids relax,just sit here and I will do the talking,understand?"Stanford said to the orphans as he tries to ease the situation. The orphans complied to be quite and listen then Stanford resumes.
"As I said I hailed from another world,a world with only one moon and no magic or exists."Stanford then continue to describe his own world until he said to everyone.
"Alright stories later,let's continue this after we finish eating,understood guys?"Everyone nods and the orphans finishing there meals faster.
(Moments Later)
Stanford stands in front of the window gazing outside watching a peaceful skies and an untouched lively forest,then he turns his sights at the MCV parking idly outside the house. Some time ago he was in his world but now being dump to this new world never been expecting to be happened in his entire life. He was interrupted on his train of thoughts when Tiffania appears beside him.
"Umm is there something bothering you?"Tiffania asks.
"Oh it's nothing,just one of my nostalgic times."Stanford replied still facing outside.
"By the way miss Tiffania what is this runes etched in my chest that appears when you kissed without warning me that night.?"Stanford asks Tiffania about the runes inscribed in his chest.
"T-that's must be the familiar contract seal...y-you know from what I've learned in order to finish the summoning ritual,you need to kiss the familiar to seal the contract between familiar and it's master."Tiffania said then lowers her head,felt flustered and embarrased as she remember it.
"I-i'm sorry if I kissed you without your consent."Stanford only sighs by it and spokes.
"It's alright miss Tiffania,just next time warn me if you do something like that okay ma'am,because when this runes started to appear in my chest I felt a great heartburn,it hurts though."Stanford said smiley on his master. Tiffania only smiled nervously on him.A moment of silence occurs amongst the two and only brokes when someone pokes behind the commander. He turns around to see the orphans gathered in front of him with there faces glowing in excitement.
"Mister please continue your story about your world now pleeeease..."One of the kids that poke the commander pleadingly said.
"Hey mister,can we play at your big carriage outside?"Another kid asks unto him.
"Now now kids relax,I will keep my promise to tell you about my world,and...about my carriage...sorry but you cannot play on it. Let's say it's too dangerous to play on it."Stanford said to the childrens and everyone sits ready to listen to the commander's story-telling.
(Meeting Hall,Royal Palace Of Tristain)
"WHAT KIND OF INSULT IS THIS!"A noble officer from the military went outburst by the announcement of the princess on her familiar to become an officer of there army. They still not recovered from the truth before the princess summons a human commoner as a familiar but now they've been hit by another stone of insult,chevalier Agnes is enough and then there's another one?. Inside the meeting room,many nobles shocks and dislikes at this.
"General Doruc stand down."Queen Marianne said with tone of authority to general Christophe Dela Doruc and puts the general into silence but still has a mad expression. Other nobles present in the meeting has the same view and contempt on the princess declaration to make her commoner familiar turned into an rank officer of there military force especially cardinal Mazarin that also present in the room still shock on it,giving a commoner a power to command was against church doctrine. Even her mother the current queen of Tristain still in a bit of surprise by her daughter's act. Zarić on the other hand standing besides the princess still calm while crossing her arms as she already expected this kind of situation.
"Your highness...w-what are you thinking?You want your commoner familiar to become a military officer?It will only comprimised our military credibility. Please princess think about it."General Augustus De Calincourt said as he pleaded the princess to change decision.
"Thats right princess you must think it again. It will be a shame to us if you let this peasant to step on our level."General Doruc added.
"Henrietta my dear,are you sure about this?I mean I don't think that It will be a good image to us in the other kingdom especially to Romalia if we let a commoner to take a military rank only granted to nobility."Queen Marianne stated to Henrietta about the probable predicament. Henrietta doesn't know what to reply. Her familiar only assures her that she can handle this. Few hours ago her familiar told her about it's plan,she is against on it because the plan sounds that it's futile but her familiar insist that she must put a faith on it and assured her that they will succeed. Looking to her familiar standing beside her she saw it's calm expression after all of this arguments to dispose her request but she knows that her familiar already expected this,turn back her sights to the nobles currently in the room eagerly waiting to her response. Finally,Henrietta speaks.
"W-well-."But suddenly she interrupted by Zarić.
"Yur highness may I..."Zarić said and Henrietta looks at her and she gives the princess a nod. Henrietta nods and gestured her familiar to give her authorization to speak.
"Sorry if I interfere to the discussions of yours gentlemen but I don't see any means of-."Zarić was in the middle of her speech when suddenly one of the nobles yelled out.
"SHUT UP commoner scum,you filthy wretch has no right to butt in the meeting of the nobility."General Christophe Dela Doruc yelled out and at her.
"And most of all you lowly peasant has a nerve to be an officer of our military. Tch..you only making our army to be look weak if we let a weakling like you to command."General Doruc added and at the same time mocks at her with sheer arrogance.
"What do you mean by that?"Zarić said sternly and felt insulted by the tristainian general but still maintaining her patience.
"I mean you commoner filth has no business in our military. You only put a stain on our glorious army."General Doruc said and then forms a smirk look on his face.
"Maybe you can be useful in some other terms...How about you become my mistress."He said pervert intent.
"Watch your mouth general Doruc she's my familiar!"Henrietta yelled in an angered tone causing the general to startled to silence.
"Master it's alright,as I said let me handle this fatass."Zarić mockingly said,losing her temper after all the insults she recieves with a bloodshot looks on the general.
"HOW DARE YOU calling me like that you lowly scum."General Doruc suddenly yells from his silence when he heard Zarić last word that makes him infuriated.
"HEY...why you looking at me like that!"He added when he notices Zarić face turns into a grim that looks like begging him to let her end his life.
"What?You feel insulted pig?Say,are you really a general?You look to fat to be fitted on it."Zarić grinly mocks the noble general.
"That's ENOUGH!You dare to insult a general?YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR INSOLENCE!"General Doruc angrilly yells at Zarić as he pulls out his wand.
"General Doruc put down your wand."Queen Marianne said with a serious tone to the angry general which the general nervously complied.
"Familiar I don't want to tolerate such barbaric acts to this meeting even if you are a familiar of my daughter."The queen said to the familiar.
"Understood your majesty,i'm trying be civil here but the general here really lose my patience."Zarić said at the same time looks at general Doruc with a mocking face which the general gritted his teeth to anger.
"Familiar I'm sorry to say this but I cannot granted that rank on you unless you are earned a noble title just like my daughter's chief bodyguard,Agnes De Milan but still I doubt if they will change their minds after that."Queen Marianne frankly stated to Zarić.
"I see,but your majesty what if I will earned that rank through another way...how about a duel match."Zarić stated.
"What do you mean?"Queen Marianne asks raising her eyebrow.
"Well your majesty,I want to challenge that general over there into a winner takes all duel."Zarić finally stated her intentions as she pointed at general Doruc which she wants to challenge. The whole nobility inside the room gasp in surprise at the declaration of the familiar,they can't believe on what she just saying. They're now began to think that she is an ego or just an idiot,declaring a duel were she cannot win is surely an idiocy kind of action although she is not in position to challenge a noble. The only response she gets was an outburst laugh from general Duroc but for the general he was pissed,a commoner dared to challenge him that she was sure that she can beat him was clearly underestimating his superiority as a noble. After the general recovers from his laughing he spokes.
"Hahahah..I corrected it right,your not just a filthy vermin your also a foolish idiot."Then he changes his mood
"Hmph..and most of all,a foolish peasant like you has no rights to challenge me into a battle." Zarić only smirks and replies.
"Really...unless I will be a representative of a noble and she's the one that will challenge you and I'll be the one who will fight for her."Zaric replied.
"What!What are you talking about?!"General Doruc said gasp in surprise.
"You don't know?Well I recall from what I read in some books of law in your palace library there stated that according to the sacred rules of duel between two nobles established long ago.A noble can pick a representative that will fight under him/her stead even if it's a commoner or another noble as long as he or she is serving under that noble."Zarić stated the information on him. General Duroc was speechless,all of the information the familiar said is holding a fact. Although he is still on advantage side as this mere commoner familiar challenges him into a winnable fight for him.
"Heh if you wish to die commoner then be grateful because I will be do the honors,so who is this noble that represents you to challenge me?"General Doruc said as he clearly states that he accepts the challenge.
"Of course who would it will be,it's none other than my master,her highness Henrietta De Tristain."Zarić presented her master as a challenger.
"WHAT!Your highness what is this!"General Doruc suprisingly stands up from his seat when he heard the name of the challenger.
"My dear is that true!"Queen Marianne said also surprised on what she heard,everyone in the meeting gasps in shock to hear me. Henrietta only nods as she couldn't say anything regarding it. There plan was now in full swing but she has a doubt if this will turn into succession,at first she really against it but her familiar her familiar said that she must put a full trust on her,if she didn't she will only lose the faithfulness and loyalty of her familiar that she could not afford because it will comprimise her credibility to the tristainian people. She was interrupted on her thoughts when she heard a demanding voice of general Doruc.
"Princess,I want answers to all of this."General Doruc demandingly asks her. Instead of Henrietta,Zarić spoke to the tristainian general.
"That's aside general,we only wait for your answer."Zaric said.
"Shut your undicipline mouth commoner rabble!You have no rights to butt in the conversations between the nobles!"General Doruc angrily pissed familiar's always intervening.
Henrietta leaving no choice in this situation finally decides to came up with her familiar's plan.
"General Christophe Dela Doruc,I princess Henrietta De Tristain challenge you into a duel as my familiar to be my representative,if my familiar wins she will become a military officer as part of agreement."Henrietta bravely declares her challenging but felt a bit of fear for her a part of her feels that she needs to believe in Zarić. All the military nobles including the queen and cardinal Mazarin wide eyed in extreme shock on the declaration of a duel from the princess,to think that it was ridiculous for a princess to go all through this just for making her familiar to be a military officer which familiar's overall and everything was running smooth according to her plan.
"So...my master already declares a challenge general,what now?"Zarić said cornering the general. General Doruc was now in a cornered situation,with princess declaration of duel leaves him no choice but to accept,if he declines it will only brings a shame on him but this sudden duel was still in his favor. First he will not face the princess in a battle personally instead her familiar will act as representative in the battle. Second the one he face was the familiar which is a commoner so it will become easy for him to win this. Make up his decision he said with confidence.
"If that's your wish your highness then I'll accept the challenge. By the way,what will be my reward if I won the duel?"General Doruc asks his reward for winning.
"It's up to you."Zarić replied.
"Heheh fine then,if I win this...I will have YOU!"General Doruc said pointed his hands on Zarić.
"Deal."Zarić suddenly said closes the deal.
"WHA-ZARIĆ WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!This is not part of-."Henrietta surprisingly yells on top of her voice from what she heard on the deal but Zarić raise her hand on Henrietta to stop her in complaining and said to her.
"Relax master,I already prepared for this duel. I will not lose to this bigotry. Trust me I'm surely win this."Henrietta can't say anything as she has nothing any means to stop her familiar now. She was now praying to the founder for a miracle to happen and choose a right decision in a worst situation especially for her familiar.
(Royal Palace Of Tristain Palace Grounds)
At the palace grounds a huge commotion was happening. Nobles of military,queen Marianne,cardinal Mazarin,and princess Henrietta along with her bodyguard Agnes with some members of musketeer corps stood on the sides. At the middle standing facing each other at distance were the two who are participated on the duel event.A wave of murmurs came from the spectator nobles as they watching the upcoming official duel between a commoner familiar and general Doruc,eventhough they already know who will be the victor but they choose to stay as they want to watch on how the general would trash this ego commoner. The queen on the other hand only wants to see the familiar on how she fight an unwinnable battle while cardinal Mazarin twitched his eyebrows on this pointless duel against a peasant who only wants to pretend that she has a better edge. Henrietta currently felt the situation intensefies as in the matter of time the duel that will decides the fate of her familiar will begin. As she contemplates she was interrupted by Agnes.
"Your highness,do you think your familiar is out of her mind?She just challenging a noble,a general to be exact. Still whoever she fights as long as it is a noble she needs founder's mercy to win but founder always likely sided with his decendants so that there are no commoners in the history that manage to win against a noble."Agnes stated with concerned looks on Zarić,even shes also a commoner only granted a title of chevalier,she can't denied for herself that it's impossible for peasant to beat a noble in a straight up fight.
I know Agnes,I know..."Henrietta said with more concern and both afraid for her familiar.
"Heh so are you ready to face a crushing defeat peasant?Because in no time you will be my woman."General Doruc said with perverted expression as he can't wait to end this and recieve his prize.
"Don't say anything till it's done or else you will regret it."Zarić said back to the general.
"Tch you still have a nerve to say that?It doesn't matter,that confident face of yours will disappear once I smash you,but don't worry I will be easy on you,I don't want to break that glamorous body of yours."General Doruc grinly said to her.
"Enough talk let's end this so I could break your bones."Zarić said straightly and pissed as she want to start the duel now so that she can destroy the face of this noble. Zarić wearing her trenchcoat positioning herself into a battle stance while general Doruc pulling out his wand.
"Be grateful peasant,I general Christophe Dela Doruc will lead you to your destined defeat,my main element is fire that's why they called me Duroc the fireball,that's my monicker name."The general said proudly on top of his voice.
"Yeah yeah who cares firefat."Zarić nonchalantly said and mocks the general which cause Duroc burning in rage.
"YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!"General Doruc shouts in pure rage as he chants a spell and a fireball forms in his wand while aiming it at Zarić then the general unleashes it to her. Zarić simply sidesteps dodging the incoming fireball then looks at the general with disappoint look.
"Is that all?I've been expecting more from you."Zarić said coolly
"Grrrrr don't take this too easy,it's just a warm up. Next one will definitely get you."General Doruc angrily said as he chanted another spell but this time multiple fireballs appears and strike it all on Zarić at once. Zarić sprinted towards and performs some insane stunts to dodge the fireballs,while evading she pulls out her two combat titanium enhanced knives and ready to aim it at the general. General Doruc saw it and prepares for it then Zarić saw an oppurtunity to throw both knives at the noble general.
"HAH I know what youre thinking. That puny knives of yours will not reach me. I'll melt it."General Duroc said as he chants a big size fireball. Zaric throws both two knives directly at Duroc but the noble general unleashes his big fireball directly to the knives. The knives and the fireball reach upon contact and the fireball engulfs the two knives. General Duroc let out a broad smile,the fire that he releases is enough to smelt a metal. But suddenly something has emerged into the flames,two swirling objects in flames flying swifly towards the general. General Doruc snaps out from himself as he immediately sighted the flaming objects. He manage to evade the first one and lands stabbing on the ground but the second one swipes his cheek and embedded to the wall. The general was in state of confusion,he doesn't know what just hit him,he felt a burning pain in his cheek and touches it,confirming the injury as he see a blood in his finger,it's not only a cut but a burned cut .In order to identify the thing that bleed his cheek he took a glance at the object embedded to the ground. General Doruc widen his eyes in shock as he sees a knife smoked in heat sunk into the ground. The nobles that watching the event transpires agape in shock as they saw the familiar manage to bleed a noble and a general to booth,but they put it aside thinking that the familiar was only lucky that the familiar manage to land a scratch to the with Agnes and some members of musketeer corps has also the same reaction,for Henrietta being shock on what she witnesses,she has now a bit glow of hope that her familiar maybe can do this although still worried for her.
"B-but how?...w-why it's not melted?"General Doruc stammered on what he saw then looks back at Zarić grin looks.
"What?Surprise?Oh look,your cheek is bleeding,damn that's just my warmup and you almost got?"Zarić nonchalantly said with a tone of insult. This makes the noble general's anger reached to the limit.
"RAAAAAAAAAAARGH THAT'S IT!I WILL KILL YOU NOW!It's a shame that I can't earned my prize and kill a gorgeous woman like you."General Doruc yells furiously as he chants a spell but this time it's different,Doruc combined a wind and fire spells,creates a fire whirlwind.
"This is the end!DIE COMMONER SCUM!"General Doruc screams unleashes a stream of burning whirlwind to the familiar. Zarić didn't falter on it instead she take it head on. Dashing forward to embrace the streams of flames that resembles to a flamethrower only a bigger version of it except it's swirling flames that looks like a small twister,as a result Zarić overwhelms by it as she is being engulfs in flames.
"ZARIĆ NOOOOOOO!"Henrietta cried as she witnesses her familiar eaten by flames and was killed by general Duroc. The military nobles smiled in satisfaction on what they saw,general Duroc burned the impudent commoner to her very core that dared to step on there level. Cardinal Mazarin and queen Marianne did not react as they already expected this to happen but the queen looks worriedly to her daughter as Henrietta kneeled down on the ground in tears and regret of why she let this to happen while being attempting to held up by Agnes.
"Hmph finally the eyesore completely like I will apologize to the princess for killing her annoying familiar."General Doruc said to himself and being satisfied from what he see,a burning area in flames where the familiar stood a moments ago,he sures that the damned familiar now burned into crisp or else turned into ashes because there's no one could survive that intense fire he casted.
"Now time for rest. This is very annoying that I lost much willpower just to erase a lowly scum."He added and was about to turn around when a loud bang sound rangs throughout the place. The general flinch in surprise by disturbing sound and then felt a slight pain in his right shoulder,seeing a bloodstain in his cloth on his shoulder. General Doruc now both shock and confuse by the sudden injury that looks like being done by a musket if the loud sound before is any indication. The nobles and the musketeers that watches the duel also surprise by the startling sound that for them was a musket being fired out of nowhere. The musketeer corps being alerted and sorrounds the princess while the military nobles pulls out there wands also sorrounds the queen and the cardinal to protect them from whoever fired the musket. General Doruc now holding his injured right shoulder as he looks around searching the foolish person that dared to shoot him.
"YOU INSOLENT PEST,SHOW YOURSELF AND DON'T HIDE LIKE A COWARD!"He shouts then darted his sights to the musketeers as he suspected them because they are the only ones around who has a muskets in there possession.
"Who are you looking there?I'm right here moron."A female voice suddenly hears and Duroc surprise as he recognizes the voice and return his attention from the flames. Then a mysterious figure forms behind the blaze and it's moving forward coming out the fire. All of them that watches the duel including general Doruc has now gaping in shocked on the impossible events that they witness which is unbelievable to comprehend. The commoner familiar they thought that already been roasted was now emerging from the flames as if it was nothing happened to her,no signs of burns all over her body and her clothes especially her exposed trenchcoat.
"I-I-IMPOSSIBLE!HOW DID YOU-.?!BUT HOW?!"The only words that coming out from shocked general Doruc. For him it was an uttermost absurdity when he saw the accursed familiar alive after being hit by an overwhelming combined fire and wind magic. The nobles including the queen and the cardinal was taken aback with eyes widen from the unexpected turn of events,unable to explain on how the familiar did survive,while Henrietta,from tears change into shock and awed expression,she rub her eyes if her sights fooling her,but when she sees the same shock face from Agnes means that they also saw what she see. It's confirmed,her familiar is really alive. Henrietta lit up in joy that her familiar was still alive and well but fixated on how her familiar cheated death,she then decides to know it later as the duel is not over yet.
"Where you think your going?We're not done yet."Zarić said with a menacing eye to the shocked general. General Doruc snaps from his stupor and see the familiar also smirks which makes his blood to boil.
"YOU...I don't know what sort of devilry you use to survive from my magic but it doesn't mean you could escape your fate from meee..."The general gritted in anger as he lifted his wand to chant a spell once again but it was cancelled when a bullet hit his wand causing it to shred into pieces accompanied by a loud bang. He froze stunned by it and slowly turns his sight into his wand,widen his eyes to see his wand now gone to his hand. He then turns back to the familiar just to be surprise to see that Zarić now holding a some kind of musket with it's muzzle smokes,the general figured it out that the loud sound he heard and a bullet that decimated his wand was came from the familiar's strange musket.
"Now,let's see what will you do without your stupid schtick."Zarić mockingly said as she holsted back her magnum former soviet general walks forward to the stunned general Duroc.
"You...STAY BACK!"General Doruc said with a tone of fear into his words but Zarić continues to move forward to him. When Zarić was finally in front of him he was now being intimidated from her,although the damned person in front of her is nothing but a commoner and woman to booth,still he doesn't know why he's being scared like this. Snap out from his thoughts he clenched his fist and lash it out to Zarić.
"I said STAY BACK!"But Zaric just dodge it and give a heavy blow to the generals side right chest. General Doruc flinches out as he feels an intense pain to his right chest causing him to kneeled down. Zarić then kicks his face and the tristainian general instantly laid to the ground by the sudden force of kick. She then immediately stomps with force on general Doruc's face which in exchange a pure scream of agony in pain comes from Doruc as Zarić presses hard her feet to the general's annoying face.
"So what I will going to do with you?I see,didn't I mention before that I will break your bones?Hmmm...which bone I will going to break?...ahh I see,let's start with your injured right shoulder."Zarić said as she forms a smirk face which makes the poor general chilled in fear.
"P-please spare me...I-I YIELD,I YIELD!"The General pleadingly cried to her.
"Oh come on don't do that,I was starting to enjoy this. Please don't yield."Zarić said with a sadistic smirk as she added the pressure of stomping to the general's face.
"PLEASE STOP!I SURRENDER!I SURRENDER!"Duroc pleadingly screams as he felt an intense pressure pain by Zarić stomping.
"Zarić enough!You've already won."Henrietta shoutly begging at her and the familiar runes on her left hand glows a bit as she felt her body wanted to comply on Henrietta's order. She can't resist it but choose to comply as she take out her feet on Duroc's face.
"Tch never mind,torturing an annoying pig like you is just a waste of time."She turns and walks away approaching to Henrietta. The nobles that watches the event unfold stunned by surprise. What they see is not supposed to be happened that either reality would denied it,but the truth they witness was breaking the limits of there beliefs.A beatened noble is not unusual to know in the records of there history but a noble being beat by a commoner is somewhat disturbing and considered to be like punching to the moon but this peasant did it. For Henrietta she was wonderstruck by it,nevertheless she feels a sigh of relief that her familiar manage to pass it. Agnes and the musketeers shares a dumbfounded faces on Zarić show of impossibilities. As Henrietta saw her familiar finally approach she asks her.
"Zarić...I-I don't know how did you do it but I-."Zarić cuts her off and spoke to her.
"I know princess,you want to know how I survive that general's magic it's all thanks to my improved fireproof trenchcoat."Henrietta in surprise on what she heard.
"You mean..your coat is fireproof!How-."Zarić raised her hand indicates her to stop.
"I'll explain it later your highness"Zarić said then Agnes intervenes returning from her usual self after being stunned from the recent duel and speaks to her.
"Hey Alena...you plan this all along from the start am I right?"Zarić raise her eyebrow and look carefully to Agnes,she didn't expect that someone like her in this backward world would anticipate all of it. Zarić only let out a small chuckle on her and she thought.
'Seems like she is good to anticipate my plans. Henrietta is really good of choosing people to relied on.'Then queen Marianne from shock back to her usual posture called the familiar which caught it's attention.
"Familiar...I want to congratulate you to your victory,I don't know how you do it but it's not important to me now.I already know that my daughter has a good familiar to be rely on. So please as her mother,please take care of my daughter."The queen gives her a gratitude of thanks. "I will your majesty. In fact that's my duty from the first place."Zarić politely replied.
"Familiar...you won the duel. We nobilities never back down from our deal. Because of that,I'll make my announcement."Queen Marianne said and walks to the front of all to make an announcement regarding the duel.
"Ladies and gentlemen,I will now announce my decision."Then she takes a deep breathe and continues.
"Today we witness the inconceivable duel between general Duroc and my daughter's human familiar as a representative for my daughter. As part of the deal,if the familiar wins she will become the officer officer of our army in any rank she wishes. The duel concludes in favor of the familiar,and so a deal is a deal. And now...I queen Marianne De Tristain will hereby announce this familiar will become a military officer of the tristainian royal army." The military nobles just nod unable to protest. The results are clear and have no means against it,as a noble they never back down from their words that leaves them to accept this predicament. Queen Marianne after her address called out the royal guards to help pick the poor general Doruc back to it's knees. The royal guards arrives at the scene and aiding the beatened noble general,but the general due to his ego refuse and resist the help. Coming back to his foot and saw the familiar that dishonored him and stepped his authority.
"YOU CHEAT!I won't believe that a lowly scum like you would survive my flames without suffering any damage. I don't know how you do it but I'm surely that your using some kind of dishonorable trick against me."General Doruc said accusing the familiar of using some some so called dishonorable tactics.
"Really?...then I'm asking you the same,is it honorable to a noble who has magic to fight a commoner with no magic to fight back? You nobles the ones spouting about battling on equal terms and you accusing me of cheating? Of course as a commoner with no magic I will also find some other way to fight someone like you on equal footing and you considered it a cheat."Zarić replied back to him makes him to devoured into silence. The other nobles that hears the familiar's words feels that it has a sense after all that they cannot complain on it. Their thoughts was suddenly snap out when the familiar continues to speak.
"If your not satisfied in our duel then how about a rematch. But this time on equal footing,no magic schticks and no nasty tricks just a brawl fight. What do you think?Your demanding an equal fight? Then I"ll give you one."Zarić taunted.A moments of silence reigns the place which Zarić considered it to be the conclusion of everything,so that she finally said.
"No more complaints?Then I think the show is over. Your highness,if you may I will leave now. I want a relaxation rest after this."Henrietta nods and Zarić proceeds to walk. As she was about to leave the queen called her again.
"Familiar,I didn't know your name yet. May I know who's the familiar that serves my daughter?"The queen asks her name.
"Oh my apologies your highness."She said as she straightened her posture and gives a salute while introducing herself.
"General Alena Zarić of the United Socialist Soviet Republic."Zaric replied in a militaristic tone.
(Academy Grounds Of Tristain Academy Of Magic)
"Familiar,there you are."Louise steamed as she finally saw her familiar laying under the tree.
"I've been searching for you and here you are just lazing around."Louise angrily continues as her familiar just ignored what she saying and said.
"Oh hey master,is there something you need from me?"Saito asked.
"Come on here it's break time,but this is also a time were the masters are with their familiars so I need you with me. I don't want to be mock with someone there that I cannot deciplined my familiar just because it's not with me along."Louise said to him and she whispers
"Eventhough they're already laughing at me now that they believe that I only contracted this commoner as my familiar."Saito heard her whispering but put it aside as he just said.
"Eh?Well thats great,now is a good time to have knowing each other."Saito stands up and said to her.
"Lead the way master."Louise huffs and begins to walk as Saito follows. They reach the school grounds and Saito saw a gathering of many students probably from different year with their familiars in different species or mythical creatures. The students seated on there chairs and some are sipping some teas serve on the tables. Louise proceeds to the vacant seats and sit while the commander sitted in on a vacant chair which besides his master. After they sit an awkward silence occurs among them,it only broke when Saito started to speak.
"So what now?"He just simply asked and Louise followed suit.
"That sword on your waist,I never see that kind of design before. I'm pretty sure it's not scabbard or any sword that I know so what is it?"Louise curiously asks him about his sword. Saito raised his one eyebrow by Louise suddenly asks about his sword and said.
"Oh so you notice?Of all things?I thought theirs no one will pick an interest on my katana."Saito said.
"Katana?Is that what you call that kind of sword?"Louise asks as her curiousity added.
"Well yeah. This is what we call back in where I came."Saito replies.
"Say familiar,what's your name?I didn't asks about it later and also where do you came?...are you a mercenary?"Louise asks many questions about the identity of her familiar as she wants to know him well.
"Whoah ma'am questions one by one,I will answer all of it okay...alright first my name is Saito..Saito Hiraga and I came from..uh..how do I say this...from another world?And last I am not a mercenary,I'm working in the military."Saito answers. Louise frowned from her familiar's answer. It's not because of his weird name or he once in the military but he claims that he is from another world nonsense.
"What do you mean from another world?"Louise skeptically asks as she's not buying it at all.
"Well how do I explain it hmmmm...in where I came there's only a single moon,there's no magic there,and no magical beasts like that."Saito explains then pointed towards the blue dragon then look at the blue haired brunette wearing eyeglasses sits at the other table besides the blue dragon. He always sense that girl was always secretly looking at him and when he looks directly on her she then avert her gaze on him. Looks like she is somewhat observing or spying on him in some reason.
"No magic!Then how do they live without magic."Louise blurted out when she heard the world without magic then Saito turns it's attention to Louise and answers.
"Just because that world has no magic it doesn't mean that it cannot established a good living civilization. My world revolves around technology and science,so that we discovered so many things,making our daily lives better."Saito explains to Louise about his own world. Louise on the other hand did not understand what technology or science he's talking about. Saito seeing Louise confused wanted to continue his explanation when he turns his gaze to a blonde boy holding a rose flirting to a yellow haired girl on the other table.
'Wait a minute...is he a two timer?'Saito thought as he remembers the boy yesterday flirting to a different girl. He then saw the same girl that the blonde boy flirting yesterday evening looking for someone carrying a basket. Siesta after serving Guiche with a girl some tea saw the girl and politely asks.
"Your looking for someone ma'am?"Siesta asked.
"Did you see Guiche?"The girl asks.
" ?He's right over there."Siesta replies as she pointed to the location. Without further a due the girl then rushes towards the location. When he reaches the area she saw Guiche together with a girl.
"Guiche..."She said then turn her sight to a girl beside Guiche.
"Who is she?"She said looking at Montmorency.
"K-Katie?!"Guiche stammered as he surprised by the girl names Katie.
"Guiche who's that girl?"The yellow haired girl asks Guiche the same.
"M-Montmorency...ummmm s-she is ahhh..."Guiche stammering in extreme nervousness as he could not think anything to 's attitude changes on Guiche manner and she's now suspected that Guiche has an affair to that girl.
"GUICHE!WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!Are you having relationship on that GIRL?!"Montmorency suddenly stood up with intense anger looking at Guiche that is now sweating rapidly.
"Guiche you said to me that I'm the only one!"Katie added as she is now angry by Guiche's betrayal.
"Girls,girls l-let me explain this..."Guiche tried to explain from now steamed girls as he wants to ease the tension but the girls had enough of him.
"EXPLAIN THIS!"The girls said in unison as they both slap Guiche cheeks side to side. The blonde boy could only shout in aww and rubs his cheeks heating red in pain from the angry force of the two young ladies. The students that watching the event unfolds bursted into wild laughters.
"Ahahahaha Guiche playboy moves finally busted."One of the students laughingly said. Guiche steamed in anger and embarassment by this predicament turning his gaze to Siesta now seeing a guilt expression.
"YOU!You pointed her on me aren't you?!"Guiche shouts on the maid on accusing manner.
"U-umm yes s-sir but.."Siesta stammered in fear wanted to defend herself at the sudden anger of a noble on her. "Then this is your fault servant,if you didn't tell Katie of where I am then this will not happen."Guiche added his accusations on the maid as he moves forward to her.
"And because of that YOU make the two girls cry,and I Guiche De Gramont will punish you for doing so."He said as he raised his hand prepares to slap her. The poor maid closes her eyes and wait for her fate,but it never came. She open her eyes and snap in surprise as she sees the human familiar is now grasping Guiche hands.
"Piss off kid. This maid is not going to be hurt just because you've been caught of two timing."Saito said coldly.
"What the...RELEASE my hand at once you foolish commoner!Don't you know who I am?I'm the son of General Gramont!"Guiche demandingly said as he trying to freed his hand from grasping.
"Ah so your old man is a General huh,and your using your father's authority just to escape your playboy mess,your only giving a shame on his name."Saito retorted back on him and releases Guiche hand. Guiche stumbles backward to the ground by the sudden force of his resisting due to Saito's gripping.
"HOW DARE YOU to hurt me commoner!"Guiche shouts angrily at him by being stumbled.
"That's what you get by being a playboy."Saito said unto him. Guiche gritted his teeth in pure anger after the disgrace he recieves.
"Do you think you can escape this commoner. I challenge you into a duel!"Guiche declares a sudden duel and in response a loud cheers and some whispers came from the students,wanted to see an entertaining fight.
"Hoh,what is this,an arrogant brat is challenging me to regain his honor?"Saito amused.
"Pathetic,let me put this straight into your stupid head,your already have no honor since you start sailing on the two rivers. In desperation you put the blame to that poor maid because she can't stand against you. Am I right?"Saito frantically said and a wave of murmurs spread amongst the students hearing the familiar's words holding sense.
"And now you declared a duel to a commoner thinking that I have no chance of winning against you?Makes added a shame on you just to follow your big ego attitude."Saito added leaving a bit tone of disgust. Saito's words makes Guiche burning in anger,when he was about to say something Saito beat him to it.
"Well then,I accept your challenge. To teach you an unforgotten lesson."Saito declared.
"What?Y-you accept?F-FINE then. Meet me at the vestri court in one hour."Guiche stand up and leave preparing for upcoming battle. Saito while seeing Guiche retreating figure he saw the ridiculous reactions of the students after they heard what he said. Turning aroud and see Louise walks angrilly towards him and yells.
"What do you think your doing stupid familiar,your going to get yourself killed!Let's go you need to apologize to him."Louise scolded him.
"Relax master,I've gone through many situations far more worse than this.A spoiled kid cannot beat me in a straight battle."Saito said and calms her.
"But he will kill you with his magic!There's no way a commoner could win against a noble!"Louise replied back worrying on him.
"No worries I know it,beats me I am different from any kind of commoner you've known so far."Saito assures her.
(One hour later)
"Hmph so you've shown yourself. I commend you for not backing down knowing that your gonna facing a noble."Guiche said with tone of confidence.
"Why I would back out to an ego kid like you?"Saito replied back as he strip away his katana on his waist and simply throw it to Louise. Louise gasp out in surprise and catch the katana.
"Wha- familiar what are you thinking!"Louise shouts and mad at him by not using his weapon.
"Don't worry master,I don't need my katana to take him out."Saito coolly replied. The students that currently watching the event talking to each other about the familiar's action. Some thinks that he is out of his mind while others thinks that he is a fool or a big ego.
"Are you underestimating me commoner?Are you really think that you can beat my magic easily?"Guiche said with a tone of annoyance and anger.
"Yes,I know I can easily beat you. I know how to handle someone like you."Saito said to him with a tone of mocking.
"You foolish peasant!I'll be the one who teaches you how to obey a noble!"Guiche said loosing his temper to all the disrespect he got.
"Alright enough chat let's start this up."Saito said prepares to a battle pose. Guiche waving his rose that reveals to be his wand,two of it's petals falls to the it touches the ground two humanoid metal golems rose up,one holding a spear and other one helds a sword and shield.
"Be proud commoner,I Guiche de Gramont also known as Guiche the bronze will taste to fight my precious valkyries and your the first one will gonna experiencing it."Guiche proudly stated.
"Huh?You want those tin cans to fight in your place?I thought your manly enough to face me. So disappointing,come on show me what they got."Saito said insulting him.
"Grrrrr you dare to mock me,Valkyries ATTACK!"Guiche sealing his order the two valkyries rush into an insane speed charging towards Saito. There speed was fast that even the human eye can't follow but for Saito it was a snail speed. Due to his vigorous intense training in combat,his adrenaline,reflexes,strength,mentality and fighting expertise in battle earns him to improve to pass his human limitations.A lancer golem attack first thrusting it's spear to Saito. The familiar simply dodges the spear clench his left fist and releases a heavy blow straight to the chest of the golem. The golem falls to the ground by the force of his punch while another valkyrie held up it's sword to slice him but he also quickly evades it and saw an opening grabbing the valkyrie's head and smashing it to the ground with all his might breaking it's head to the process. Saito then quickly catches it's sword and immediately swings it to another valkyrie that just manage to stand up cut it's body to two. In a span of seconds,two valkyries has been already slained. Saito then notices that the runes on his left hand glows when he uses the sword. He feeled a weird sensation on himself like all of his stats boosting high. It also gives him some sort of skills in how to handle the sword although he's already has a knowledge and expertise in sword combat. Saito feels the changes and mutters looking at the glowing runes.
"Interesting."Then turns his sights to Guiche.
"Is this all your tin cans got?I thought they are worth challenging to me,they could not even break my sweat."Saito disappointingly said looking to Guiche who is now shock in fear as he watches his golems easily dispatch by him.
"I-IMPOSSIBLE!There's no way a commoner like you can defeat my valkyries!...J-JUST WHO ARE YOU?!"Guiche said stammering in shock.
"Hmm,you wanna know the name of your lecturer huh. Very well,commander Saito Hiraga of the empire of the rising sun."Saito said introducing himself.
"H-huh commander?..Don't fool me,a peasant like you can't be a commander...Anyway don't get too cocky. It's just a warm up!I'm still getting started!"Guiche said then sway his rose as the petals from it falls to the ground and seven golems emerged from it.
"Then let's do this,makes sure this time you gonna give me a real fight."Saito said and make the first move. He dashes forward with a sword as the golems did the same. As they reach upon contact,he clashes with swords on the first golem. Blocks it's attack,sees an opening and cuts the did the same fashion on the four golems with swords. Saito's masteral skills in sword art combat trumph the valkyries with ease. His skills was enough for this fight but due to the additional powers he recieves from the runes that glows while he's currently engaging in battle made him invincible and an overkill to be exact as his stats was now in beyond human capabilities.
"Three lancers remaining,right let's finish this."Saito said as he throw the sword he use and proceeds to rush towards the remaining golems. The golems readied their spears to the incoming familiar. As he reach contact the three valkyries thrust their spears on him but he suddenly jumps to the air and lands at the back of the valkyries. The three valkyries turns around and a spin thrust kick was greeted by the valkyrie at the middle. The golem stumbles forward from the kick force,the two golems swings their spears on Saito and he easily back flips to the air to evade the attack and sprints forward at the incapacitated golem that he kick and was now attempting to stand. The golem manage to stand but Saito tackles and punches the golem at the chest. The golem did not react due to being it can't feel anything and it's only made up of tin metal but flinches from the surprise attack. He snatch the spear into it's possession as the golem loss it's balance and thrust the spear right at the center of it's chest. Saito then sense a movement behind him as the two spears swings down on him. He quickly rolls forward to evade it,after that he stands and face the two remaining golems while he's holding a spear.
"Let me teach you how to use a spear properly."Saito said and performs spear battle stance.
"Come."Saito said in a taunting tone. The two valkyries rallied their charge as Saito waits for them to get close. Upon contact Saito impressively manage to repel and parried the attacks with ease showing skills of expertise in spear combat. Saito noticing the battle taking too long,he then decides to end it,shifting into offensive attack. Using his spear he smashes the sharp edge of the opponents spear and breaks it,then he swings his spear to the valkyrie,cuts it into half.
'Now to the last one.'Saito thought as he switch his sights to the last valkyrie that was now swings it's spear to him which he easily blocks it and he is now exchanging clashes on the spins the spear with his two hands as he waited for the moment,the golem attacks and Saito see this oppurtunity to spun at the side and performs a finishing slash. His back faces the back of the valkyrie while his one hand holding the spear and then Saito walks forward to Guiche who is now stunned wide eyed on what he see while all of a sudden the last valkyrie falls to ground cuts into half.
"And now for the boss."Saito said and forms a smirk face. Guiche snaps from his stupor when he heard the familiar's words.
"What?!Uh...no..NO STAY AWAY!"Guiche yells in fear and sways his rose to summon another golem but he realize that their was no petals left. He stumbles to the ground and his whole body is shaking in absolute fear. He didn't expected this failures turn of events,he wishes that this is only a dream but no avail as he can't believe this is happening. His pride valkyries was beatened by this commoner familiar without breaking a sweat,for him being beaten by a peasant is a complete disgrace by a noble. The students that watching the duel shares the same reactions,stunned and shock with their eyes widen on what suppose to be impossible to happen. Seeing the commoner showing skills way far more better than anyone in their military,easily decimating the golems singlehandedly. Louise on the other hand drooling from the transpiring events witnessing her familiar stomps Guiche valkyries that she didn't even notice the katana falls from her hands.
"No more cards left?Why you just stand up and fight me head on?"Saito said to the shaking Guiche.
"N-no please I yield,I YIELD!Y-you win NOW!"Guiche pleadingly beg to Saito to spare him.
"As I thought your not manly enough to stand on your words and how fragile you are when you are run out of your magic."Saito said unto him and throw away the spear as he added.
"Now,learned your lesson?"Saito said unto him.
"What do you mean?"Guiche asks and Saito sighs.
"What I mean that it's because you have magic it doesn't mean that you are invincible. You didn't realize that without your magic your nothing but an easy to kill by your opponent because you didn't even bothered to learn how to fight your enemy without magic. Once your wand is taken out,your finish."Saito stated the fact brought not only Guiche but the whole students watching the duel into silence thinking what the familiar said is really true.
"By the way,apologize to the maid that you scolded before."Saito said as he turns around to walk away.
"What?Me?Apologize to a servant?I'm a 's no way I will apolo-."Guiche protested as he suddenly cut off by Saito's sudden reply.
"That ego of yours will kill you someday spoiled kid."Saito coldly said unto him as he turns around to face Guiche.
"You are the one that commits a mistake and you know it. Are you not noble enough to admit your fault?"Saito said slowly turns into a sterned voice still in more intense cold expression. Because of that Guiche puts into silence and cannot complain on him. Saito turns back and continues to walk forward to Louise and pick his katana on the ground.
"Jeez just take care of my stuff will you."Louise snaps out as she heard Saito now speaking in front of him.
"Huh?...What...YOU!How did you-."Louise stammers cannot apprehend the happening and Saito raise his hand to stop.
"Later master,I need first some slack."Saito said to her.
(Tristain Academy Of Magic,Headmasters Office)
"Unbelievable..."The only words that Colbert the bald man professor wearing eyeglasses can said after he witnesses the clashing duel between Guiche and Louise human familiar in the magic crystal ball.
"Yes indeed Jean,this young man is something. He shows a skills that was beyond commoner's or even human's capabilities."Osmond the old long bearded headmaster of the academy commented after being watch the familiar's showoff.
"Ah headmaster!Theres something important that I need to tell you."Professor Colbert calls out the headmaster as he remembers the reason why he is in headmaster's office.
"About the runes that I saw from the familiar's right hand. I finally identified it after I done some research at the library,and what I've been discovered that the runes are belonged to the legendary Gandalfr,the founder's familiar."Colbert stated what just he discovered.
"So you mean that this young man is none other than Gandalfr,the legendary familiar of the founder?"Headmaster Osmond said.
"Yes,based on what the information on my research is stated."Said professor Colbert. The headmaster thinks deeply while holding his long whitebeard.
"Jean I want this information to be confidential for now."Osmond said in a serious tone.
"But why headmaster?This is a big news to us,the legendary familiar of a void mage just suddenly appeared in our time after 6000 years since the founder's era."Colbert said as he continues.
"And most of all,this maybe the reason why miss Louise the youngest scion of the Valliere family didn't hold any talent in any elements of magic because there's a high possibility that she is a-"Colbert didn't finish his speech when suddenly the headmaster speaks.
"Thats why I want it to be a secret Jean,it will be a disaster especially for the Valliere family if about the news of the familiar of their daughter is the Gandalfr and the information of a possibility of her being a void mage became public. Those corrupt nobles on the government will definitely use both of them on their personal deeds and miss Louise father the duke will surely not be please about it."Osmond stated the predicament on Colbert which the professor nods in understand.
"About your theory of miss Valliere being a void mage,we still cannot jump on that conclusion yet. We need to confirm it first and gather some clear evidences about it."Osmond lastly said.
"I understand headmaster."Colbert nods in agreement. Unknown to them a certain green haired woman was secretly listening behind the doors of the headmasters office. This woman was none other than miss Loungville the headmaster's secretary. Miss Loungville after hearing the conversation hears a footsteps walking towards the door,Loungville then steps back and stands in front of the door as she waited to someone to open it. As she expected the door opens and she was greeted by Colbert.
"Oh!Miss Loungville how long you have been here?"Colbert said bit surprise of her.
"I've been just arrive here when you opened the door professor Colbert."Loungville replied.
"I see,by the way miss Loungville I need to go now. There's something I need to do."Colbert said taking his leave.
(Unknown Wide Area,Somewhere In Albion)
"Okay guys were here."Stanford said to Tiffania and the orphans as they exit the MCV along with their belongings. As they are all outside they saw the whole area was a mile wide open flat plains with a mountainous range from distance. Eventhough the area is wide,this place was hidden and did not place in any map of Albion because it was not bothered to be placed in the map as this place is unhabitable area and not an important spot or route.A perfect safe spot away from the chaos that is happening in the country. Stanford learns from Tiffania and the orphans about the civil war currently rampaging all over Albion between the royalist and the rebelled faction called reconquista. As he listened longer before,he learns that the royalist are group of nothing but a corrupt nobles lead by a mad king. Stanford understands why this reconquista people takes arms and fight the abusive government that cause the peoples miseries. But not until he also learns that this rebel faction are also a bunch of nobles with religious fanatical beliefs,lead by a priest named Cromwell. They're fighting not for the people but for their stupendous dream of uniting all nations in Halkeginia to lead of what they called a holy crusade to claim the holy lands from the elves. Abolishing the government and invade the whole continent just to send people to another meat grinder really makes Stanford disgust to this rebellion,not also on them but also from the corrupt royalist especially to the king that taking advantage against their own people. He wants to intervene to smash both royalist and this rebel group to freed the poor people of Albion from their tyranny and with this MCV he has the power to do it but Tiffania was against it as she wants to be in peace and she does not want to be involved in the war. So that he decided to take Tiffania and the orphans far away from the flames of war as the house they live in is not a safe place to be. Even it is hidden in a thick foliage deep in the forest,there's still a possibility that the royalist or the reconquista will found that place because of still being close to the community that the forest outskirts is a stop over town. Also because of being deep inside the forest theres a chance that some wild animals or beasts will show up especially at night so technically a not reliable place to be. Then he told Tiffania and the childrens to pack up and gathered some important things for them as they will searching a good permanent safe place to live.
"Mr. Stanford,what we are going to do here?"Tiffania curiously asks him.
"Were going to build a home and a base of operation here."Stanford replied on her.
"Okay kids,miss Tiffania let's get a good distance from my carriage."Stanford motioned them to take distance from the MCV which they comply. As they manage to get a good distance,Stanford operates from his touchscreen pad that he is holding this whole time from what Tiffania and the childrens description is a magical glowing notepad. They saw Stanford touching the notepad many times and the next thing happens is the big blue steel horseless carriage from they know which is actually the MCV suprisingly transforms into a giant steeled structural building with a weird crane on top of it and a symbol of an eagle spreading it's wings emblazoned at the top entrance. Tiffania were shock in awe while the kids gape in awe and their eyes gleaming in amazement when they see the big steel horseless carriage turns into a giant building,if it's not enough that the steel carriage can move without a horse this one was beyond.
"Alright,the construction yard has been deployed."Stanford said and turns to Tiffania and the orphans seeing their expressions. Stanford could only smile on it.
"Miss Tiffania."Stanford called her which she turns to face him.
"Please take the kids inside the building,there are some room quarters inside enough for us to stay in."Stanford said and Tiffania nods pack up their belongings and lead the childrens inside the building. Stanford left behind as he need to initiate to build the entire base.
"Now then for step 1."Stanford said as he scurrying into his touchscreen pad and began the building progress of the power plant.
'This is good. The MCV has enough supply to build primary structures and to produce a small army of infantry,plenty of defenses to defend the base and enough number of vehicles.'Stanford thought with satisfaction as the operations will came in full swing without fail. The allied supreme commander then look up in the clear skies,thinking of what the next course of action he will do.
"Looks like it's time for technology to introduce itself to this new world."Stanford said as he still look up in a bright morning sky.
