"Takeo-San, Negi-Sensei is in the middle of a lesson!" Ayaka explained.
"Shhh, Ayaka-Chan. I'm in the middle of an important call." Takeo stated.
Everyone laughed at Takeo's comment, Takeo leaned back at his desk.
"Alright, I'll be there." Takeo said, in a more serious tone.
He hung up his phone and placed it back him his pocket, once he looked back up he saw everyone looking at him.
"Who're you going to meet?" Misa asked.
"An old friend of my grandfather." Takeo answered, with a straight face.
As class was ending, everyone looked at Takeo was leaving with Negi and Evangeline.
"I wonder if they're going to train with Eva-Chan." Konoka said, with a curious expression.
"Let's follow them." Kazumi declared, while she was holding onto her notepad.
They decided to follow them to the cottage.
[Eva's Resort]
Negi was practicing his Kenpo while Takeo was talking to Evangeline.
"What?!" Evangeline asked, with a surprised expression. "Are you serious?"
"Yea, I'm serious. Someone broke into the Kansai Magic Association and Stole a Gourd, which sealed away one of the demons my ancestor fought." Takeo answered. "So I need to know, how to gain better control the Magia Alethea."
Evangeline looked at him with a confused expression, until she figured something out.
"Wait, you said something about being cursed. How exactly does it work?" Evangeline asked.
"Well, since I failed to protect the village. Every it's activated my hidden magical potential is released." Takeo answered. "Though my magic takes a darker form."
Evangeline held her hand out, Takeo nodded and gave her his hand. Evangeline started examining his hand, she narrowed her eyes and made an irritated expression.
"Ryutaro, what did you do?" Evangeline asked, with a saddened expression.
"What?" Takeo asked.
"You're wrong on two accounts. 1. That Dark Magic was already a part of your body, before the curse was active. And 2. Your eyes are just a side-effect, the curse is actually encroaching almost half of your body." Evangeline answered.
What she said completely shocked Takeo to the point where he couldn't even comment.
"Come on, it's not that serious…though it does brings a question to mind." Evangeline stated. "Who exactly cursed that idiot friend of mine?"
"I don't know, the only thing we know is that he was a very dangerous dark mage." Takeo answered.
Evangeline was lost in thought over what he said, a memory of the one who turned her into a Shinso suddenly came into her head.
"Could it be…no, there's no way Ryutaro would ever…" Evangeline thought. "Just try practicing controlling your magical energy better, while the Boy pays his dues."
Takeo nodded, and traveled to the top of the resort. Once he was there, he placed his hands together and began concentrating.
"I was already capable of using Dark Magic, and my thoughts about my curse was wrong." Takeo thought. "If I can control it, then maybe."
Magic energy started surrounding his body, he breathed outwards and the magic energy started becoming more concentrated. Takeo started practicing several Southern Dragon Kung Fu martial arts.
"Focus to train and condition the body, be righteous and uphold your honor, respect your parents, honor your teacher and treat others with honesty, treat your friends with…" Takeo said to himself.
But he was stopped was he heard arguing, coming from below where he was standing. Takeo jumped down the top of the resort and traveled where the noise came from. Once he got there he saw, Kazumi, Asuna, Nodoka, Yue, Setsuna, Konoka, and Ku Fei.
"What're you guys doing here?" Takeo asked.
"We were wondering what you two were doing at Evangeline-San's Cottage." Kazumi said, with a slight guilty expression.
Takeo noticed her expression.
"What did you think we were doing here?" Takeo asked, with a deadpanned look.
Kazumi blushed and whispered something into his ear, Takeo's face started turning completely red.
"What kind of person do you think I am?!" Takeo asked loudly.
Kazumi laughed to herself, Evangeline explained the purpose of her Resort. And the seven of them were immediately amazed by what they saw.
"You mean, you two have been training like this?" Konoka asked.
"Wait, Takeo-San. Why didn't you tell us about that?" Yue asked, with an enthusiastic look. "We could've gotten more training done."
"I thought it would affect you guys in the actual world." Takeo answered.
"Ta-Kun. Like we said before." Setsuna declared, as she glared at him slightly. "We'll assist you with anything no matter what it is."
Takeo smiled at them, Shiro jumped on his head.
"Takeo-Kun, I've been wondering something." Kazumi stated. "Why haven't you made a pactio with me yet?"
Everyone around Kazumi spit take about what she asked.
"Y-You want to make a pactio with me?" Takeo asked, with a blushed face.
"Why not, it won't hurt to have an extra hand." Kazumi answered.
"She is right, Takeo-Sama." Shiro responded.
Takeo looked up at Shiro and sighed.
"You've been hanging around Chamo-Kun too much." Takeo stated.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Chamo asked.
Takeo sighed and looked away from him.
"Alright, let's form a pactio." Takeo said, completely ignoring Chamo's question. "Shiro you mind?"
Shiro jumped off of his head and started forming his own version of the pactio circle, both of them stepped inside.
"Are you ready?" Takeo asked.
"Yea." Kazumi answered, with a smile on her face.
Both of them closed the distance and kissed each other, as they were kissing the both of them were blushing a shade of red. Kazumi cuffed Takeo's face, while he placed his hands on her waist.
The card started forming next to them, the card completely formed and fell on the ground. Once they parted, Kazumi stepped away from Takeo smiling and blushing at him. Takeo looked down and picked up the card, everyone looked in to see what it was.
Inquisitor Mundi (Investigator of the World) On the Pactio Card, Kazumi wearing a black sleeveless shirt, black skirt with a brown belt, and a white long sleeve jacket. Around her are seven high-tech drones and earpiece with a visor built in and attached to her ear.
"It makes since that you'd get this." Takeo stated, with a slight chuckle.
"What is it?" Kazumi asked.
"Those drones are called All-Seers, they're used by Magic Researcher to search, gather and hunt for information about anything the user requires around the planet. They relay all the information through the earpiece."
While Kazumi was ecstatic about the idea of having an artifact like that, while everyone else were terrified at the idea of her having that. Evangeline sighed and tagged Takeo's arm, trying to get his attention.
"Alright, Takeo show me what you've learn so far." Evangeline requested, pointing towards the training ground. "You guys can come if you'd like."
"Alright, Nee-San." Takeo responded.
Takeo took of his jacket and threw it on the ground, while following Evangeline towards the training ground. Everyone went to have a seat in the separate area, with a curious expression on their faces.
"This isn't a battle just show me what you've gained so far." Evangeline stated.
Takeo nodded, he breathed outwards and began focusing his magic energy.
"Use everything you've learned in battle, your martial arts training and form." Takeo thought, he held his hand towards the sky.
"Fulmine Cadens De Trorum. A Flash of Lightning to Cut through the Night, spring forth from my hands and Throttle my Enemy. White Lightning!"
Takeo gathered white lightning around his hand, as he continued breathing outwards. The white lightning spell then started growing in size around his hand, gaining a smirk from Evangeline.
"Alright! Stagnet!"
The white lightning started swirling around his hand, until it formed into a large orb in his hands. Everyone who were there on the sidelines gained a surprised expression on their faces.
"Complexio!"
Takeo crushed it into his hand, and he was surrounded in an electrified aura. Again Takeo's hair turned silver then spiky, his eyes started glowing a bright blue.
"Supplementum pro Armationem. Shinsei Rakurai!"
