I know, I'm late by a week. I've been busy with a lot of things lately, especially with some of the plans to come next month, and the weather here has been nasty. But I have been doing my best to stick to the updating schedule. I had it done on saturday, but I realized something coming up for my schedule. On the weekend of the 12th of May, I will be extremely busy that week prepping for a flea market (my first booth at one), so I waited to upload until tuesday so I can fix that schedule. There for the next chapter (Chapter 16), will be coming out on the 8th of May. I'm really *pauses to sneeze* Sorry about that, but I wanted to make sure that this schedule of updating works. If I can get that chapter 16 chapter done before the flea market, then the *sneezes again* uploading schedule will be back to normal and it'll be *sneezes* smooth sailing from there.
Dynamis: You okay there Warrior? You've been sneezing a lot while writing this chapter.
I'm fine. Spring allergies have been starting up again. At least it's past the winter to spring weather transitions. That was not a fun March. That and the stupid weather we've been hit with (It's worse by my grandparents! They got hit with over record breaking amounts of snow in 3 days).
Dynamis: Well at least my battle will be 2 weeks after this one. I'm still sore from the battle.
Well then, please don't get mad then when you look at the script then later.
Dynamis: Why, how bad is it? *looks at script* Ugh... Safe to say I'm going shopping for burn ointment before next chapter. Curse the fact that I forgot about Arturia and Felipe being fire element users.
Yep. Might wanna buy a case of it.
Dynamis: I'll keep that in mind. -_-"
So anyways as always, special thanks to Queen for Beta reading this chapter, cause I really appreciate the help on this. We've got maybe 6 or so chapters left in this arc, then we can move onto the 3rd arc. I'm somewhat happy we're almost there because more details and backgrounds on the kingdoms will be talked about.
Let's get onto the chapter at hand though. I don't own MFB, and all OCs belong to their respective owners.
Chapter 15 Round 2: A Test of Resolve
"Hey, is anyone else besides me a bit worried about this battle, or at least sense a bit of bloodshed to come from it? I'm just asking cause of the tensions between Noir and Lucas."
Dynamis gave a nod as he and Rosalina sat down to wait for the battle to come. Ever since the battle pairings were announced yesterday, the red haired crown princess of Vivia had been concerned with what was to come from the outcome of it. And after seeing both Yukina and Lucas grow uneasy from her presence that day, he couldn't help but agree with the other's statement.
"Fighters of Obscure blood have reason to be feared. Out of all of the kingdoms of Trinity, Obscure has one of the largest armies prepared for battle. They are all to fight, beckoned at the call of Caspian, and he's not a king to be underestimated. Add the fact that Noir is his right hand, not to mention both Lucas and Wales are his sons, and I worry what will come out of the aftermath." Dynamis admitted, Rosalina gripping his hand gently.
"I'm worried as well. Isn't there a way you could use visions, even for a bit to see how bad the outcome of this battle is?" Rosalina asked.
"Trust me, I've tried. But ever since before this tournament began, I've been having a lot of trouble accessing my visions ability. I've even used what little I have of my Tarot blood from Aunt Unmei for enhancing it, and it's been useless." Dynamis paused in his explanation, looking a bit frustrated, "I'm concerned that maybe my psychic sense is starting to fade away due to using most of my electrical magic."
Rosalina noticed the saddened look on her friend's face, before an idea came to her. The red haired princess turned to her bag that was tied to her side, and grabbed a seed of sorts from inside. Unlike most of the other seeds she was used to seeing in her kingdom, this seed was a bright gold color, and marked with a rune of something she didn't understand. But it was just the right seed that she needed for this situation.
"Fruits of the Arcane," Rosalina whispered, bringing her hands over the seed and closing her eyes in concentration. Dynamis noticed his companion grow quiet, before noticing the seed in her hands morph into a golden fruit that he recognized. He knew that Rosalina's spell was a unique one, one that only she had power over. Provided she had the right seeds, she could produce a fruit from the seed that was infused with healing magic. This fruit she created this time however...
"I just remembered that the fruit of Yggsdrasil has the power to boost certain aspects of a person's magic, or to those with Tarot or Serene blood, their Psychic and Spectral sense. Maybe this could help you with yours Dynamis." Rosalina explained, and for a second Dynamis noticed the other's cheeks were dusted with a light pink blush. A small smile escaped the male as he accepted the fruit, understanding that the other was trying her hardest to cheer him up.
"Thank you Rosalina. I really appreciate you trying to help with this." The crown prince of Prism admitted, before giving Rosalina a hug. He knew that Rosalina knew he had a crush on her, and it was vice versa for her. However, the whole situation of not being sure how to express their feelings to each other often made things a bit awkward. Still, he would have to remind himself to find a way to get over it a bit more often. Between the two of them, Rosalina tended to figure out situations to get over the awkward tension quicker, something Whimsy and Trixx still teased him on.
There was a muffled squeak, and the two pulled away as Rosalina's familiar popped out of the bag. "Oops, sorry about that Amethystos." Dynamis stated as the purple and lavender colored ferret climbed onto her master's lap, both of them noticing the uneasy on the familiar's expressions.
"You usually don't appear often outside of when we're in Vivia. Is something wrong?" Rosalina asked, "You've been quiet since before the meeting a week or two ago."
"I was in the astral realm. The death magic we've been feeling has been lingering since the meeting, and somehow it's been following us since then. It's not just me who sense it though. A lot of familiars have been hiding in the astral realm as well." Amethystos whimpered, nuzzling the other's sleeve of her robe.
Both Rosalina and Dynamis grew concerned. Just how bad was this situation if it was scaring many familiars?
"Are you sure you wanna go through with this Noir? It sounds like a dangerous gambit."
"Perhaps. But this is a test for both us and Lucas' group. We need his trust and cooperation if we want a bigger group to expose Caspian."
Shiro nodded as he watched Amethysia tug on the magic suppressing band, already having abandoned her disguise in favor of exposing her true physical form. The other had returned without a scratch while he was meeting with Yukina, and it left the male wondering just what exactly happened between her and Lucas' conversation. While the other had, from what she told him, listened to her, he still didn't exactly trust her and possibly himself. Not that he could blame Lucas, trust wasn't something easy to built.
And for a second, he had to think that's how Noir had to be when trying to infiltrate Caspian's ranks. Which brought up a good question.
"Aren't you worried that Caspian's gonna put two and two together, with you revealing your true form like that?" Shiro asked, and Amethysia gave a chuckle as she turned to him, her scythe in hand.
"As far as Caspian knows, this is just a form brought on by awakening of my magic. I cover my tracks well kiddo when it comes to spying." The dark haired woman stated, polishing the blade with a soft fabric cloth, "It's something I was taught by the thieves of Eclipse, Obscure's counterpart in Aethera, along with a few other basic skills."
"Can you please stop calling me kiddo? I'm 19 years old."
"Aw, but it's fun ticking people off. Besides, gotta keep a mask somehow." Shiro glared slightly, before Amethysia chuckled, "Alright. Do you prefer I use your first or last name?"
"Shiro is fine."
That's fine with me. Man, I wish Cordial was here. You'd get along with her just as well as you do with me."
"Cordial? Who's that?"
"Oh right, I never told you much about my family, outside about my mother and father. I should really remember that, right Kamui?" Amethysia giggled as her familiar appeared, the cat looking just as amused as her master. "Princess Cordial is my dear younger sister by five years. She's a lot more playful than I am in terms of fighting. You should see her weapons. Crystal marbles that she infuses with her magic and fires em with a slingshot."
"I see. I thought you were talking about your familiar. You never told me his name till now."
"Ah, the rivalry of youth. I must say that this has to be one of the best years, wouldn't you agree my friends?"
Glacia chuckled as she, Zane and Carlino watched from the highest rows of the arena. It was a special row hidden above the crowds, where the other rulers could watch without interuptions. "I am glad you are enjoying yourself my dear friend. It has been a while since we've had such an eventful tournament such as this one." Zane pointed out, Glacia nodded in agreement.
"Well with so many strong mages and warriors, I can see why everyone is excited. My dear niece is certainly trying her best to show that she's no pushover. I'm proud of how well she's grown, both as a princess and a fighter." Glacia admitted, beaming with a bit of pride as she sat up in her seat, "And your son has certainly been trying his hardest in this as well Zane."
"I'm somewhat curious to see if it's either cause he wants to go for the top of this tournament for a second win, or if he just wants to have fun with this. I could see an even brighter smile on his face yesterday when he said he was happy that he and Rosalina were fighting together than any year in the past."
Carlino chuckled as he patted his friend's shoulder. "Those two have become rather close over the years. I can tell by the way they're talking right now." The King of Eterna stated as he gestured to the seats where both Dynamis and Rosalina were talking. They seemed to be deep in conversation, but they were holding hands, a gesture not uncommon between the two.
"Ah, bonds between kingdoms. That's something that needs to be scene more often."
Glacia looked to her left as Caspian joined the trio, his best soldier at his side. Chaos seemed rather bored at the moment though, as he just kept his attention to the battlefield. "Come to join us in watching the battles today Caspian?" Zane asked, and Caspian gave a nod as he smirked.
"Of course. It would be rude not to stop by and support my sons, even if we don't always see eye to eye. I also thought Chaos could experience what a good battle is by seeing it from a different point of view." Caspian stated as his second hand nodded, the king of Obscure's smile appearing warm to most of the others in the room. Yet somehow Glacia could sense a bit of malice in his tone, his familiar appearing on his shoulder and staring at her with slitted pupils.
She could sense that the other was hiding something, but even though she had a strong sense of justice, it was rude to accuse another ruler of mutiny without the proper proof. No, she would have to wait until the time was right, and she would wait until she had the evidence to expose the truth. That's what Lucas, Wales, Shiro, and Yukina were working so hard to do, and despite their differences, they all had a reason the fight for what they thought was right.
But until then, she would play on with this facade that she could sense. After all, she had to prevent herself from looking suspicious in Caspian's eyes.
"So how do you think this battle will play out, Caspian. Both teams have ties to Obscure, and both your sons are on my niece's team." Glacia pointed out, "While you right hand is on the other team."
Caspian raised an eyebrow for a second, trying to figure out the other's game before giving a smirk. "I will be satisfied if either team wins. Noir proves her strength if her team wins, and Lucas will make me proud to have chosen him as my successor. He is a fighter, much like I've noticed your niece is milady. Could it be the queen of Stratos and I have a lot more in common." The king of Obscure stated, and Glacia narrowed her eyes.
"What do you mean by that?" Glacia asked, giving a slight glare. Just what's his game?
"Well both our kingdoms choose our youngest children as our heirs. It just makes me wonder if the king of Stratos has the same idea as I."
Glacia sputter in anger as she stood up, Vespers coiling around his master's wrist. It was getting harder to keep up the calm interior, cause if that comment was supposed to unnerve her, well then it did its job. "Yukina was chosen as Crown Princess for a reason different to your own for Lucas, Caspian. Not all of the Kingdoms choose their youngest children as their heirs."
Caspian looked at Glacia, who returned the glare as the other rulers in the area watched the scene with unease. Finally, after a moment of staring each other down, Caspian smirked. "Perhaps you are right in saying our reasons are different. But since you don't want to explain your reason, I'll keep my reason a secret as well." The king of Obscure stated as he returned his attention to the arena, waiting for the battle to begin.
Vespers slithered up to his shoulder, before giving a hiss. "It ssseeemss Queen Glacia isss already getting suspicious of you Massster." The familiar whispered, and Caspian just gave a smirk as he lowered his voice.
"Let her be suspicious. In the end, she cannot prove a thing without the proper evidence Vespers. After all, I've covered all my tracks well, and all she'll end up in at the end is a false lead."
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to round 2 of the tournament! The first round was only a taste of what's to come in this tournament, and this first battle is gonna be one to remember! For our first team, the arctic winds are howling from Stratos and Cryos! Give it up for Lucas, Wales, Sophie, and Yukina!"
Yukina inhaled deeply as her team walked into the arena, Lucas leading the group with a look of determination in his eyes. She had known that Noir, or rather Amethysia, had spoken to the male while she had been out with Shiro that night. But while she had no idea on what went through with that conversation until later when she returned, it seemed Lucas had been given some peace of mind from what her guard had told her. Still that didn't mean Lucas fully trusted the crown princess of Obscure just yet, and she could understand his reasons. Trust was a very fickle thing.
"So we're gonna be going forward with this strategy then?" Yukina asked, and the paladin of ice gave a nod.
"We're not at a disadvantage as we were last round, but that doesn't mean we can't let our guard down." Lucas pointed out as he gripped his staff, the large sapphire glowing with magic as he continued, "Yukina, I want you to work with Sophie in this battle, and focus on a mixture of both defense and offense."
"Got it. Anything else?"
"Yeah. Try to stick with Humid Upburst if you want to use Cloudcast Lightning. Sophie can help with the icy winds on your end."
Yukina gave a nod, and she heard Lucas inhaled as they heard the other teams names being called. The truth of the matter was she was nervous about this battle as he was. With tensions as is, one little spark could set off a chain of events that could cause harm to those around them. She just hoped that Noir was being honest about her words to both her group and Shiro.
Speaking of Noir, the young woman was leading her team out, but there was a difference in her appearance compared to before. Her hair was streaked with patches of purple, and she had changed into a purple tank top with a pitch black skirt and matching boots. Her familiar was out as well, the cat's tail wrapping itself around the other's scythe handle.
As her team stopped in front of them, Noir gave her a smile, one that seemed more genuine compared to her smirks and teasing facades. "I am hoping for a challenge in this, even with the way our battle is going to go Lucas." The dark haired woman stated as her familiar disappeared.
"Believe me, you don't have to hope, I'm gonna give you a challenge. And we will win this fight." Lucas pointed out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let the first fight of round 2, begin!"
Yukina noticed that Noir was quick to take the first steps of combat, being back up by Shiro as they chased after Lucas and Wales. "in combat, it's whoever catches the opponent off guard first has the advantage Lucas!" The dark haired woman stated as she struck the ground with her scythe, "Scattering Shadows!"
The ground began to shake beneath her team, and almost by instinct Yukina felt herself jumping into the air as blades of darkness grew out of the ground. "Yukina, you and Sophie take on Platina and Emily! Me and Wales have this one covered!" Lucas called out, his hands glowing blue with magic, "Winter's Wrath!"
The air around Noir grew colder as she moved about to keep herself warm. "Trying to make this battle one sided huh? Hate to tell ya kiddo, but I am used to moving around in icy weather much like this. It's gonna take a lot more than a little bit of snow and frost to keep me down." The guard of shadows pointed out as her hands filled up with magic.
"Trust me, I'm just getting started! Icicle Barrage!"
"Humid Upburst!"
"Ring of Flames!"
Yukina felt the air around her grow warm as she blasted another burst of wind at Emily, the slightly older teen summoning a barrier of dark magic to block her attacks. Sophie and her decided to split up their team, with Yukina facing one paladin and the guard of ice facing another. And while she had the advantage of a lot of magic, the paladin of darkness proved to be a much stronger opponent than expected.
"I hope this isn't the best you can do, milady. It's been a while since I've been able to go full out with my abilities like this." Emily pointed out, forming several spheres of magic around her as she charged to attack. "Black Star!"
"I'm not one who goes down easily, despite my appearance Emily! Angelic Winds!" Yukina exclaimed as she formed a ring of compressed air around her, blocking most of the spheres of dark magic that were thrown at her.
"Hey, Don't forget about me!" Platina called out, jumping around happily as she formed her own spheres of pink colored magic and flung them at both of her opponents. "Gift of the Faye!"
Yukina grew worried as the attacks collided with her own, a crack forming in the barrier around her. Hurry up you guys! Me and Sophie can't hold Emily and Platina off forever!
"Come on kiddo! Is that the best you got to face me? Shadow Blade Dancer!"
Lucas felt his eyebrow twitch as he sent another barrage of icicles towards Amethysia, the older woman evading his attacks as if she was dancing before firing another round of darkness magic at him. Even with her magic halved by a magic surpressing band on her arm, the scythe wielder still proved to be a challenge against him. But tough or not, the other was still mortal, and she had taken her fair share of injuries in this fight. Already he could see ice forming on her arms, cuts covering what wasn't frozen on the skin, and her skirt had been torn on the bottom, the fabric covered with holes and rips.
"I'm starting to feel like you call anyone younger than you kiddo." Lucas stated as Shiro and Wales landed next to him, the white haired male somewhat amused at the situation.
"Trust me, I know the feeling. And I'm only a year younger than her!" The Stratos performer exclaimed as he launched his yo yos at Wales, who had moved away to put some distance between him and his opponent. "Atmospheric Burst!"
Even from a distance, Lucas could feel the wind pressing against his face as a compressed blast of air hit his brother, and soon Wales landed near him once more. "You alright Wales?"
"Barely. It's no wonder he was Yukina's guard before I was. We need to turn the tides on this battle!" Wales pointed out, coating his blade in wind magic. "Got any ideas on the situation?"
"Yes Lucas, any ideas on how you're gonna win this one? I think your teammates could use the help."
Lucas looked at Amethysia, who was using her scythe to hover in the air. He could tell that the other was trying to at least hold up her end of the test. If she wanted him to trust her, she was gonna have to hold back during the competition, as well as Shiro. But even with their magic limited, both seemed to have fun just playing around in this fight, while Platina and Emily were going full force against Yukina and Sophie. He could see that Yukina was getting frustrated with the situation, and something was gonna have to happen if they wanted to win this battle.
A thought occured to him, and the next thing the paladin of ice knew he was running towards Yukina and Sophie's battle."Hey Wales, hold these two back, and wait for me to send Sophie over while I hold these two back with Yukina. Something tells me that we're looking at this situation in the wrong way!" Lucas called out behind him.
"Why, what did we do wrong?" Wales asked.
"We set up the wrong strategy. I should've had Sophie helping you take down these two!"
Noir watched the other leave, before giving a snort of amusement as she looked over at Shiro. "Told ya he would figure it out midway through the battle. You owe me ice cream and a bag of peanut brittle later on this evening kiddo."
"Shut up."
"Nope, not higher in rank than me."
"You're not ruler of Obscure yet Noir."
Wales sweatdropped as he fired a burst of wind at Amethysia and Shiro. These two argue more than Koji and Koto sometimes... "Galestorm Blast!
Both seemed to be distracted by their bickering, so while they did manage to dodge the attack, both still managed to be hit with some of the magic. "Whoops, should've kept our guard up." Noir pointed out as the two landed in front of their opponent, Sophie having joined them.
"Before we take ya down, mind if I ask a question?" Wales asked.
"Sure kiddo, go ahead. I can tell this round isn't gonna end in our favor."
"Why go so far to help us?"
Amethysia paused to think as Shiro raised an eyebrow in curiosity as well. "I can tell Obscure has changed since my father's assassination. It used to be a well liked kingdom before Caspian's reign," The crown princess stated, her voice a whisper, "My kingdom is in pain, and I can tell you two are as well. That's why I have to do this. I have to make things right for you two and Obscure. Father wouldn't want to see his pride and joy be harmed under one's reign."
"So you want justice by exposing Caspian once and for all then."
"That's right. You know in a way, me and Queen Glacia aren't that much different in terms of personality."
"No, I suppose you aren't. I wish we could've met you all those years ago. you're not so bad once we see the real you."
Amethysia giggled. "I'll take that as a comment. Now, you two gonna take us out or not?"
"With pleasure. Grand Deucalion!"
"Black Star!"
"Cupid's Arrow!"
"Crystalline Wind Barrier!"
Yukina felt exhaustion starting to hit her stamina as she felt attack after attack hit her defensive spells, dark and fairy magic cracking the icy cold barrier of wind. Sophie had rushed to see what Lucas needed to speak to her about, leaving her to fend off two paladins at once. She was grateful for her large amount of magic, but this battle was starting to take its toll on both magical abilities and her stamina.
On the plus side, she could see the sparks of lightning start to form in the air around her.
If I can just get one shot to attack, I can take out both of them with some help! That is... Yukina paused in her thoughts as the barrier around her broke, a black star attack sending her flying backwards. That is if I can survive this first!
"Black Ice!"
A feeling of numbness hit her back as a shield of ice formed behind her, Lucas landing alongside her as she was prevented from flying backwards any further. "I was wondering what was taking you so long with Sophie! Was a change in partners needed?" Yukina asked
"For this situation it helps to have a back up plan. Got enough magic left to hit them with a Cloudcast Lightning?" The paladin of ice asked.
"Yeah. Can you cover me while I attack?"
"I got your back."
With that said, Lucas charged forward, his ice magic at the ready. Emily just smiled as her own magic began building up in her hands. "Even with a change of partners, it seems this battle is against you." The paladin of darkness pointed out.
"I wouldn't be so sure. Yukina is most often underestimated, but she has the potential to become a great fighter even after becoming a ruler. That said, you shouldn't underestimate your opponents Emily." Lucas retorted as he fired a wave of ice at both of their opponents.
"Dark Prism!"
A prism of magic began to form around Lucas, but the damage was already done. The ice made it's mark as he saw it hit their feet, trapping them in place as he was trapped inside the attack. But even with being imprisoned in Dark Prism, he could still hear everything around him. "Cloudcast Lightining!" Yukina's voice called out.
There was the sound of lightning striking, and the magic around him dispersed as the arena returned around Lucas, allowing him to see the outcome of the battle. Platina had been knocked out, and Emily was on one knee as Yukina stood over her. His teammate looked exhausted, but there was a slight look of triumph on her face as he joined her, her breaths ragged. "The old trap the feet with an attack tactic. It seems you two make a really great team, even when separated with an attack." Emily pointed out, looking at her teammates.
"It helps that we've all got a common goal. We may all have our differences, but there's a lot more we can do as a team than by ourselves." Yukina stated, and Lucas gave a nod of approval.
Emily gave a chuckle as she drifted unconscious. "Heh, Well said."
"And it's all over! Team Lucas will be one of the first teams to be in the finals coming up in the future!"
An aura of pride escaped Glacia as she watched the outcome of the battle, proud of how well her niece and her paladin were fighting. "You seem disappointed on the outcome Caspian. Were you hoping for your sons to lose?" The queen of Cryos asked, a bit amused as Caspian stood up.
"On the contrary Milady, I am more proud of Lucas than before. It seems I'm right when I feel that he would be the best choice to succeed me." The King of Obscure stated as he walked out, a confident stride in his steps as Chaos followed his steps. Once the were out of anyone's sight, Vespers appeared on his shoulder.
"Ssso it sseemssss Noir failed to defeat Wales and Lucasss. Seems she's not as strong as she appears to be masster." The familiar whispered, and Caspian smirked.
"We can't have the others get suspicious of us Vespers. When the time is right, we will strike and catch them off guard, like helpless prey. For now, we will lie in wait, like a snake in the grass, until the plan is ready. But that doesn't mean that we will stay inactive." Caspian pointed out as he turned to Chaos, the Obscure warrior waiting for orders, "I have a mission for you Chaos while we are here for the tournament. Observe Queen Glacia of Cryos' actions. See if she's trying to spy on us."
"Of course, your majesty." Chaos stated as he walked off, his magic radiating faintly as he disappeared from sight.
Caspian watched him go, before drawing his lips into a smirk. "Zane Hikari. By the climax of the final, you and the other rulers won't even expect what's in store for you."
I just love to stir up the drama a bit in this! And it seems Caspian is starting to catch on that he has someone suspicious of him.
But I had realized while writing this chapter that I had been neglecting to show Chaos as much as the others (I apologize for this Nightlingale), so I included him in this chapter, plus he'll be seen more in chapter 17 as well. I assure you that you guys are gonna enjoy chapter 17 a lot more, and if you guys have suggestions for maybe character interactions for your OCs, don't hesitate to PM. I am open to suggestions.
Btw, the idea of Rosalina's familiar being named Amethystos (Not connected in anyway to Amethysia/Noir) is based off of a Greek legend involving Dionysus. Many ideas from different things have influenced ideas in this story, greek mythology being one of those. The legend itself is also a sort of myth behind the stone that we all know as the Amethyst. And Greek Mythology isn't the only mythology that's influenced this story. The tree Yggsdrasil is based off of something in Nordic Mythology, as well as possibly a few other things in the future.
So, reason behind Lucas' team winning. This ties into last chapter a lot. I figured in order to have Lucas and Wales (As well as Yukina), trust Noir/Amethysia, a test of sorts was in order, one that Caspian wouldn't be aware of since they're working to expose the king. It was a test for both teams, one of trust for Noir and Shiro, and a test of strength for Lucas and Yukina. But even if he didn't know it was a test, he sure wasn't too disappointed with the result of Lucas dealing the final blow, given he wants Lucas to be his successor (As mentioned in chapter 8).
Also not gonna lie, Lucas and Yukina make a good team. I can really see these two work together better in these types of situations. So that said one fight down, one to go in these semifinals.
Dynamis: I'm surprised you are putting these chapters out on a pace like this.
When I put my mind to something, I am determined to see it through. Plus there's more time to work on these chapters compared to back then.
So anyways, let's finish up this chapter with the normal questions. With only about 6 or so chapters left till this arc of the story is done, what do you think I have planned for the climax of the second arc? I haven't gotten some reviews lately in the past few chapters or so, so feedback is welcome on this.
Also I am aware I mentioned another new OC. She's gonna appear in the future, cause there are some plans I have to come that will be a bit of a game changer.
Dynamis: You and your scheming ways Warrior.
Hey, I love to stir up drama with planned ideas. Just wait until you see the plot twist at the end of this arc.
Dynamis: *Looks at plot* Okay, that is pretty clever.
Thank you.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, and I wouldn't mind getting a feedback review on how this story is so far. I haven't gotten a few in a while. For the time being though, that's it for now in this chapter. Until next time, this is Warrior signing out! Catch ya guys on the other side of the nexus!
