no, for the first chapter of part three the trials the not the Dorian mage trials, but the copper trials sorry I almost messed up there. I have so many books going at once. I must apologize. I'm sorry anyway this one's for the copper trials. The three girls aren't going to this one, but they are going to help in some way. Maybe they will go actually in the shadows in the copper trials inside the cave of Basil and the Trimble caves their magic is now strong. The training has paid off. they will cyst and help the ashes team even if Ash doesn't like it is a big deal. Also, they have to hide and not let Agnes see them, but that'll be easy for them. They know all the magic of their illusion magic all that now, so we will get into it now.
A few months later
1014 MG
it was time lots of things were going on now. My sister and I had warmed and we weren't having our homecoming for a while yet other important things had to happen before we had our homecoming. There were copper trials for one other event that needed to happen before we could have anything happen big like this and the war that was coming up we still practiced and trained, but we didn't need to train with our father as much now that training was over and our magic was Strong, the three of us were strong enough for ourselves even I have improved my magic, strong all the elements except light, dark illusion, water, fire, lightning every element, including healing my sisters too we all had to master all the elements, even though they're not gonna sit with me on the council they had to know all the elements obviously to help me out and battles and things my love was impressed. Luther hugged me. He did well I smiled at him. He ran his fingers in my hair well done Nikki he said thank you I said.
I knew you could do it he said, kissing my lips you and your sisters you are now established not quite, but you will be. You will become members of society and my sister is not and we will become part of the union and be well whatever you want us to be we have to figure that out soon he says, we were hanging out at my sister right now. Is one of those ties where we were hanging out together. I have a meeting to attend and you girls are part of it. You're gonna put us into the fray of everything now yes Luther said I need your help even though Ash doesn't trust me. I need you to keep an eye on him. All three of you my face looked, you want us to go into the trials you wouldn't want to risk. I said I need to see how well you can do precious you are no delicate flower you trained hard and I wasn't a delicate flower anymore. Do you want me to prove my worth no you don't have to do that precious he says, kissing me in front of my sister it was a long kiss. You are no delicate flower. You are the daughter of the first mage. I knew that and daughters of the delicate delicate flower even if we are royal, we are no delicate, not delicate whatsoever.
no, you are not. Luther said that's why I think you'll be great for this mission. You and Elise you all are too old to join the trials obviously but you will be hiding in the shadows like Scarlet. We have to keep an eye on her as well. yes, keep an eye on her as well, please we will do that Noel said, and will keep an eye on our little sister and make sure that Agnes doesn't see her. That's a good idea, girls I know I can count on the three of you and the two of you looking at my sisters and one day this will be yours this whole area knotted all right then let us begin.
no, we got ashes security safety secured somewhat. The three of you will go in so will Scarlet and so will Elise she'll go in as a team member her rank is golden as girls have no nothing but you cannot let Crane notice you right we cannot let Crane see us or us all three of us at once, he will see you in public eventually, but not yet it's not safe yet not together. We are sisters. We take care of each other. Luther of course I know you will run his fingers through my beautiful blonde hair, which was not blonde anymore. I had a mixture of copper and a little bit of strawberry Ness from Porsche, my eyes were not completely green or blue. They're supposed to be hence vous coloring you could tell we were daughters of Ezra now and magic you have illusion magic we again know what to do.
we have to follow Ash through the trials and not be seen at least by the masters at least by guild masters can the team see us I asked, and my sisters asked to you reveal yourselves to the team if you'd like once you were in private or whatever but not reveal your plans pretend to be part of the team like we can have the same job will pretend to be members of the team and members of the guild. This is a copper level trial right Luther knotted yes I didn't think of this before. You should pretend to be part of the team as his team hasn't been completely established yet have an idea, he says I've talked to some of the mist on my side even though you've trained I think you should spend a few months in the guild. I have the room set up for the three of you to share a room. We don't need to you need to look apart, even though you have this beautiful home you need to live inside the guild, I got your paperwork for the trials and everything set up already. Whatever team has it along with other team members he has so will Elise the differences you'll be on the team alone separated you three will join whatever team has an agreement here emulates bound to you, was bound to us, this will track your aura. You'll probably need them anyway but do not show off your full magic in the trials, please. It's a rouge if you do act like you have very little magic easy for us so we didn't have magic or at least when we first started, a guild is probably good for the rest of our training even though we have full ultimate level magic.
also, each of you gets us an infinity pouch it's already full with extra potions, teleport, arms, and anything else you need we don't need teleport or right give those to Ash then but you need the potions not weed at once. OK, anything else you need? need gold I've assigned you wolf pups as well to give you your page day, the three of you will share a room at Folger already now and this is your first trial even though you have just joined the guild OK then we got this Luther we will join the guild. Don't trust anyone who's not on our side. Do not trust Crane or his goons we nodded OK trust each other, Pora and Folger, and the administrators that are on our side, and when you get on the team trust Ash, but you go wherever Ash goes you do not go with the team goes if they split you do not go with them, OK then.
strategy was given now we relaxed. We were also joining the nice guild. We should've joined it in the first place, but it was probably more difficult than we thought. That's why we had to be trained right away now we have to join a guild so we can look the part, we had to use our high-level magics which means we had to be pretending to be coppers even though we are probably higher than even gold rank. May just we were Ezra level but not quite even though we mastered all the elements even Ezra agreed that we should go into a guild and that we needed to practice more and this was an easier way to practice than having to go every day to see him we had all our basics down and all our trances for our ultimate level spells
also, he said again going back to the subject for a moment you cannot tell Ash you're working for me we noted we got that OK then do you have a room set up? Yes, Luther said it's on block fee or not block. It's on block D Del Rose, all right then thank you.
now we relaxed my sisters fixed us something good to eat and we ate lunch at the villa. That was the other reason why we were there sister fixed us some lunch and we got to eat lunch together. We're gonna be a family soon. Luther said we need to be more like one my beautiful hand, I haven't gotten a ring yet darling but I will when we get bound I promise I smiled at him. You free me precious I will. I don't think he realizes where you are right now because the track is gone. I destroyed it. He looks like a fool probably does.
Eindon or leaning back against him, I close my eyes thinking about the day we will be bound the day. We will lead a day when our families will be bound, not bound, but close together when my father will not hate my love he said he would call the truth, but he has to still act like we're still at war with each other right now, that was fine separated and hidden away mother still comes though she comes and visits whenever so she was happy that we were joining the guild you join the guild she said nice we can visit then. What are you gonna be on? Elise asked us to block all right then we'll visit as much as we can for Mail we're D for Delrose oh good idea to use your mother's last name said clever less attention if you use Volder we already have Riley with that name of course even though I want to live on Eann, I said I know, dear Please, but you'll have to be separated from Luther for a bit have your sister and I'll be there for you. I will be there for you and Noel and Joel too.
we highly appreciate it Noel said Joel said to thank you, Elise, and whatever team Ash gets on we will join. We're already joined. I have to act like I'm lost set a lease and I will join up with you soon. The trials are not for another day or two OK then so Ash won't know his team no, he procrastinated on it so he'll probably have random teammates. They might not like you at first, but I'll have to get over it. OK, then we have to act like we blend into Alencia. Yes you have to act like you blend in so you can't use any of your we know acceptance at our house but we won't be in it for much, you can still go to your house if you like yes yes of course. OK then.
you're signed in for the guild and signed up for the trials. Do you have everything you need now girls let me show you to your rooms on D-Block walking them into the walking us into our rooms we had we didn't have our room. We shared one Luther made sure that I had one big kitchen for a bedroom with three beds and a bathroom for us all to share the room wasn't that big but we had a nice kitchen with things to keep ourselves. We had we had a living room area. It was like an apartment a living room area a bathroom, and a kitchen in our bedroom, so I guess our room was like a little apartment and your master crane doesn't even know you're here yet only Pora and Folger do it will be a matter of time when he'll find out though. Elise said sitting with us in our new rooms yeah that would make sense, I think he does know but I don't think he's looked yet the minors know and that's all that's important right now..
settled into our room we have to stay here during the times of staying in this guild. We were the oldest mages here even though we were copper level that was OK. My sister needed to earn their way of becoming guild masters and to do this they had to become mages here, that would be fine. We're gonna have a great time.
but first, we had to make it through the guild ranks and since we're starting as copper, it'll take us a long time to get where we need to go no favoritism Luther said to us by love said to us he's not gonna show us any favoritism like he's not doing for Ash he wants us to earn our way through the guild fine for us go back-and-forth between the guild here and their home. I'll go between here and in. Also, the mother is setting up their workstation in Orem to work to start. Their salon will be able to make a lot of gold and time even though my sisters are rich they weren't stripped of their gold. They were told we were not allowed to use it right now, OK we had plenty of it.
my sister said they wanted to build an estate as big as his leverage or even more leverage as well crane mansion and his estates, even though we had a villa, we were planning on building more onto the place to make it more of a mansion and to add to our state once we buy the guild out of cranes knows will add the guild as part of our state our inheritance at least through Luther at least and my sister will have that plus the merchants' union one day and they'll have their little shop their little nail salon as well.
or they might even consider opening it here near the guild instead of in Orem Hala, which would be nice too they could be closer to home. They wouldn't have to travel across to Orem. Every time I talked to my sister about opening our salon near the guild, wouldn't be far for some people or would be further I said it's fine. We can teleport we have all of Valencia Valencia is our home. I knew that all of Alia was our home. We were daughters of the land. Everything is ours.
and soon everyone in Valencia will know everyone will know we're home now we just had to focus on these trials and that was another few months or even weeks not sure weeks. I think the trials were in a.
few weeks. They're finishing up registration now.
we got in as quickly as possible before the last day of registration three of us were a team together, but we had already announced what team we were going to be on 13 OK then AC whoever that is, and Roger Mendenhall or our teammates we don't know who the rest are, but I'm guessing Ash was gonna be on the team like we knew the game so we knew this was ashes team. We were gonna be on the Ashes team of course we would be, Luther said Ash doesn't know that yet though, but we do or we put it down on our registration forms. We didn't know who to be on our team. I guess we put down that we would want to be on whoever Ashli chooses and just put it down for us good that's out of the way and we put down our spells and magic types. We had to pick one element we couldn't put down that we were everything that would be too much put down an illusion each of them. That means that's the powers they have to use in the trials, mine was harder to pinpoint which one do I want to use?
I put down fire the type of mage fire spells. I listed the spells. I guess I could use basic incident all right then that'll work then we sign our names. We put down our names, but then we signed her names at the end and then it was accepted. We are ready to go.
then it was the day before the trials before we knew it. It was time we hung around and went to the grand library from time to time and went out to the café at the top. We also spent time that day in the ministration chambers greeting people we didn't want to stay cooped up in our rooms obviously, I don't know what people were doing in the chambers people were hanging out. I guess that was fine. We got to walk around and meet people in the guild with us or guild mates. That was fun meeting our guild mates. People talked about how pretty we were, but we couldn't tell them who we were, we were related to Porsche but didn't know that had actual biological children and hence the Emerald Green. They guess that we were related to Ezra Revolori's rumor destruction that we did make up a story that we were hidden away somewhere that we escaped or something and the woods or whatever we couldn't tell them, we used to live in the human world that we had to keep hidden or we would say we were taken in by master Kronos himself to take care of us and people bought the story that we were pure Vald Dorian blood like Riley. They said that the last princess Riley was not the last Orion, but they were wondering why were using the word the name and not our name told him that Porsche took care of us and she gave us her last name to protect us and everyone bought it.
but we continued to walk Ash got his paperwork for his team because he procrastinated he saw our names on the list. He found my sister, and I walked over to him and closed his waiver and everything before he reopened the watch he looked at us and frowned. What are you girls doing in the guild? Y'all are powerful mages, we could learn they are too said yes we went and trained with our father, but we wanted to learn more especially if we might take over the guild one day, and said the same time and so he wants you to do that. What would make you any better than the ministration or better than the current Matt Guild Masters, keep your voice down and you need to learn to behave. We're on the same team now for the trials. How can you be copper level? You all are grown adults you would think our magic would just come to us naturally we had to train for the magic to get it unlocked, and then we had to unlock it with more trances just to get our power level up, but even then there's tricks and things we want to learn to control our magic and a guild will be good for that. Our father cannot train us all the time and this would be good for us.
so we're gonna be on a team together Noel said look at it looking at the 16-year-old we have the other two teammates, AC and Roger Mendenhall Ash knotted then we need to get along as teammates. I said putting a hand on ashes shoulder we need to learn to get along with one another all right then he said looking at us fine girls will get along for the trials. Follow me everywhere we go adventures so we did some smile all right I do like hanging out with the three of you.
and it makes it easier so Joelle we've already met so that'll help he knotted yes that is true. We have met already so that'll help too. I guess here comes Riley. We know how to hide as Riley came up and gave him a Griffin egg sandwich and he ate it, he already had it and already had Riley. I guess Riley was coming back up to say something. I don't know then Riley left the commotion happened. I'm not sure exactly how old was being dragged out of the guild fair. I thought my sister agreed to be a criminal what's going on? Beats me master Crane has ordered expulsion stop struggling Stewart explosion. Yes, I said it means that you're kicked out and no longer able to join any other guild afterward this kid must've done something really bad to the three of them the three of us, and agreement with Ashli at least for this said I did nothing wrong, you said 45 human descendent it doesn't mean I have to be carried out on this thrown out of here like some criminal. Merrick said yes the gold said smiling. The watch was now reactivated as was talking to it for a while. We noticed the watch was reactivated we said, ignoring the commotion for a moment, as said, I have reactivated the watch has been working and has been opened again.
ash was contemplating on what he should do next his human told him to confront and help me because it wasn't fair course. It wasn't fair if we were charged this place with no human descent it would get turned away. We will change the laws to about humans and human descendants, this is not fair that knotted with me with us agreeing that this was not a fair law.
The gold said our hero and master Kronos made this lol they said we shook our heads. There's no way Luther would've made this law. Why would he make such a law like this wouldn't?
but this wouldn't be then we saw Ash stand up Ash said are we going to let this law ruin us? Are we gonna punish children or what our parents or grandparents have done? Who are you on the gold asked are you a human descendent or a human sympathizer or a human descendent yourself, as said I'm a descendent of justice we clapped the goals sneered and you three he just come out of sudden notice we should have locked out why we're not human but are you human sympathizers why would we tell you that and what big deal with that my sister and I looked at each otherwe cannot tell you who we are. You might tell your henchman crane head, guild master crane to you. whatever Noel said we don't do good against 40 so why are you in a guild? The gold asked us because we wanted to up our magic yes Noel said nodding. The gold said wait you look like descendants of we are we are descendants of the first mage Ezra himself my sister said, and I said and Porsche that's our last name Delrose the gold knotted but still that's hard to believe that they had kids of their own if you touch us, you will hear from our parents, Noel said I also hear it from Luther I said smiling at the gold. Why are you a little pet or something gold?
pat, I said staring at him can you leave the sisters he thinks on Luther's pet well not in the way you think but I am his lover. I said the gold face well then you're in with human descendants then stared at me. Why did you hush I said my sister did too or do you wanna get into more trouble then?
is there a problem? Laura came up to us girls what are you up to? Just taking care of some business we said at once be careful girls we knotted and have you taken Merrick off our grounds yet your master said on our way doing that right now Pora Gil master Pora they said yes, ma'am they said as they took Merrick away, why you need to stay out of things that you don't understand yet said girls you have a big job on your hands weed yes we do. We will take care of it. Don't worry. all right then I'll leave you alone now. See you later Pora why don't you call her Gil master as asked because we don't need too we don't need to call her that because we're close to Pora.
OK, then Ash said now I just got to decide what I'm gonna do next will help you've helped enough today. Ash said you're close to Luther and that's a problem for me. Yes, we know you're close to him and he called his name. Oops I mean Todd I meant Kronos as said, correcting himself, you heard us say his name used to name I said, putting a hand on his shoulder sides. You have a lot happening today and tomorrow during the trials.
are you gonna stay? We asked before Ash asked for the lottery to talk to Luther to Mr. Kronos why would I do that as asked us. There are all kinds of interesting things you could learn from him about him and your life. I think I'm gonna go find my team, I need to go. She said she was leaving to go talk to Ezra. I'm gonna go talk to her not the lottery to talk to Luther we thought to ourselves we followed Ash. It's not the trial so you shouldn't have to follow me. We're gonna go with you to meet your team, you wouldn't wanna be around me when I talk to Riley disappear then we'll go to our room and go to bed to our room and go to bed after that.
we agreed and followed Ash. We went to block him, but we weren't there to meet Roger. We went to speak to Elise Ash for Roger. Good to see you. We said as we walked into Alisha's room oh girls hi but expecting you girls to show up well Ash was coming to meet his team so we decided to come here we needed to see you. Of course, you're always welcome to visit me says you're my sister. You're always welcome. Elise said checking our hands, and hugging us to not much just a little scuffle in the ministration chambers what do you mean by that last? Elise asked us oh just a little scuffle with Merrick Stewart. Oh yes, I heard of that too. Elise said I hope y'all stayed out of it. Well, you know Ash he got himself in the middle of it. What at least the size of eyebrows raised, yeah, and then she had to straighten it up, it was her and not praying. Oh yeah, that would've been nasty. If he just spotted us said well at least you were safe at least said least it was. It would've been worse if it wasn't.
are you girls nervous about the trials tomorrow? No, we'll be fine and will probably hang out here while Ash goes and talks to Riley. Oh yes, that would be a good idea and the new girls can walk back to block D on their own. Oh yes, we can walk back to block on our good though you might you know what I might walk with you any way you never know who's patrolling what if Crane sees you if he sees me with you then it would be different if you travel on your own and he spots the three of you it's not gonna be a pretty sight won't believe you if you're with Luther and he'll think that you're human even though you're not human, he tried to find records on you but none at the moment because the mother is still writing them birth records and birth certificate so we can show him our birth certificate. He won't believe it but OK.
Were we hung out with Elise until it was time to go to our beds for curfew? We won back to block D at least watch with us no counters of crane ever saw us. That was good. Maybe he went back to his mansion. That was good. I guess well, at least we didn't see him, but you'll have to see him tomorrow shivered and you'll have to look at you and you'll have to speak to him, the three of us not knowing that we have to speak to head tomorrow face-to-face for the first time or three you could just stand there and be quiet we could do that would be great
we can do that I know you three can. You're all very well-behaved. We won't interfere too much. I know you won't. We hugged Elise and then walked back to our room after she said goodbye to us by walking us back. We went back to our rooms and got ready for tomorrow tomorrow was a big day. It was a big day for us tomorrow.
sweet sleep, overcame us as we went to sleep as quickly as we went to sleep the quicker we woke the next morning ready to go for the big trials that were ahead of us the trials that were coming up for us.
next day
we woke up. We fixed ourselves a quick breakfast as quickly as we could. We woke up way before sunrise because we had to. They told us we had to be at the gates before sunrise so we woke up super early. It was earlier than we thought early morning well I guess we'll deal with it we wanted to sleep from our eyes and ate a quick breakfast then we left. we had to meet at the eastern gate and find our team. We knew we were on team 13 so the three of us met up and stood at the gate. AC was already there waiting. It was the first time we'd seen him we told him we were, but he just ignored us for a moment, well that was fine with us. We didn't expect him to be very talk. Told us that he was not that type of person.
people started to pour in everyone funny their teams. We already found ours. People were chatting around with other people and other teams for a bit before they could find their teams already knew their teams and we already chatting with them. They were already friends or they were like well chatting with other people who were not their teammates, that was fine we were OK with that. It was good for us too. We watched other people talk with others. Well, OK.
we saw Ash was talking to the good watch then he started talking to Allison. We didn't know who Allison was, but I'm guessing he knew her. They were on the same block. She even asked he even asked about where his team was. She pointed out a number on her post and then went to talk to the administrator. Then he was looking for the sign team 13 then he found us. We waved at him and hollered at his name. What are you guys doing here he said as he came up to us we joined the guild it makes it easier for when we try to take over, but we want to become the new guild Masters but to do that we have to understand how the guild works well explained mean you'll become the new guild Masters day. Well, it's hush-hush. We don't wanna say that quietly out loud of course Ash said it's best to be discreet, he said you see you had the watch reactivated yes it was activated yesterday. Oh yes, we saw it open yesterday too. We're happy for you that's something to be saying for Kronos cronies he says now come on Ash we mean it said yes said Noel I said yes too it's been a while since I saw the three of you Wow Nikki looks great though thank you I said what are you talking about? Even said that he was talking to his friend, but he said whatever and went back to sleep, but then he took notice of the three of us for the first time in a while.
oh right, Noel said I am Noel and this is Joelle. This is her sister. Nikki blink his eyes for a moment. Oh yes, I can see the resemblance of your sibling being siblings he said, or the daughters of Porsche. I can tell that he says the daughters of Porsche, who else Ezra Noel said I didn't know he had children outside the Vald Orians of the Voran Empire, we were taking from our time and now we're back we go he says you look more like Porsche than you do Ezra he says thanks do you have weapons? We have magic but it's cool that you have a sword.
we heard Ashton is watched. This is the most he's heard AC talk in a long time and then ask where is Roger he's cutting it quite close then Roger right after sunset and sunrise sorry we stopped talking and watched the sunrise for a moment. it was the first sunrise that most aliens had seen in over 14 years, watched the sunrise and were mesmerized. He was about 16 with blonde hair and blue eyes very unique look he waved and walked over smiling to see us good to meet you. We have an I am Roger Mendenhall. Looks like we have a good team this year stick with me and we could win these trials easily seems confident I thought wow what beautiful woman ask him he was explaining to Ashli was explaining to Roger that it was his friend that he was talking to on the watch and all that stuff then he noticed us again so who are your pretty friends? He asked if the two older girls were twins, but they were way too old for you. Roger all three of them are. They're all in their 30s or 40s and the younger 30s but she's off. Yes, she's dating Mr. Kronas. I think I knew it and said yes wow he must be lucky then Roger said.
very lucky I said well I can't believe I'm gonna have the daughters of Ezra on my team. He says that is very interesting. Roger said that'll make things very interesting. Indeed Ash did smile about that at least knowing that they were that we were the daughters of Ezra, even though we were connected to Luther two.
Then we were teleported into the Trimble caves Without any warning.
I'm in a chapter here. I've been working on this chapter for a while so it's not like I'm just freshly started it. I hope you enjoy this one. The first chapter of this part it's fine how I do because this is gonna be one of my longer stories so it's OK to split some of these chapters into multiple parts, I hope you enjoy this one and I hope you enjoy the part two that I'll have for the trial soon. I think it's best to split it up a little. I hope you enjoy it.
see you in the next chapter
next chapter chapter 22
