97 Patron or Not pt3 (1/2)
A few days had passed since Draig had been welcomed into Yuki's clan learning that it was known as the Kori Clan, known for the Winter's Blade swordsmanship. It was an interesting name to him though he didn't know the meaning but he assumed it had something to do with the cold due their swordstyle.
The Feratu had not been lazing around during this time, he found the flaw with using his runes in battle and sought to correct it's shortcomings. He recalled being able to place runes without the need for a physical mark but it was different now that he wasn't in the world of the system. As before he could simply do it without knowledge of how to but now that he was here it didn't seem to work the same, he needed to experiment with the runes to truly understand how he could place them without the need for a medium.
The goal he hoped to achieve by doing this was the ability to place runes by just placing his hand upon a person or object, if he could do this then he wouldn't need to worry about his capabilities in battle for the moment as it would be a surprise to those who knew of his charms.
Suddenly a shout was heard from outside his cottage causing the Feratu to smirk, seemed is barrier rune script had done it's job.
Draig stepped to the doorway where the shout had come from and smiled at a twitching figure that seemed to be charred a bit.
”To what do I owe this unexpected visit” asked Draig not really concerend if this person was alive as a crowd drew near.
The person on the ground seemed to come back to life as he rose to his feet with the occasional jerk of a limb.
”Lord Kori wishes to see you” spoke the servant with a jitter.
Draig nodded and stepped out of the cottage following the youthful servant though the man would send the occasional glance towards the Feratu as if expecting a sneak attack.
It didn't take long before Draig and the servant appeared before a group of men with Lord Kori at the head and Yuki at his side.
”Here he is” spoke Lord Kori with a miserable countenance causing Draig a bit of confusion.
Scanning his eyes around the room he found Ari causing him to understand a bit of the situation as he looked at the man beside her who shared similar eyes.
”Excellent, we knew you would come around eventually though it is a pity that we have already informed his excellency of this talent” stated a different man off to the side wearing glasses which seemed to cause the others in the room to turn to him in shock.
”You did what” roared the rest of the men in the room causing the man in glasses to smile.
”It is only natural that the Emperor know of such a person living in his kingdom, you didn't really expect to hold this person among yourselves did you” stated the man before Draig coughed lightly.
”Why have I been called here” asked Draig though he was certain he knew the situation.
It seemed none of the men wanted to speak thus Lord Kori decided to speak on their behalf but it was the man in glasses that took to the task.
”Simple, we are here to commission you to create these wondrous little charms for us until his Majesty arrives” chuckled the man causing Draig to snort.
”You seem to have some kind of issue with your line of thought” spoke Draig causing the man in glasses to look at him strangely.
