3 A Trip Into The Forest! (1/2)
”I've decided!!! My name will be Majin El!” Danielle yelled in the middle of the night, waking everyone on the carriage up.
Groans resounded inside the magical vehicle and they tried to fall back asleep but Danielle decided to play around with her magic during this time. She sat on top of the carriage while creating a ball of fire and a ball of light in each of her hands. She tried to control the mana flow that entering the two and altering them. Her previous white ball flashed through a number of colors, as if it was showing each shade of a rainbow for the world to see. The size of the fire ball increased and decreased until it was both almost as large as the carriage and as small as a grain of rice. She had no difficulty at all controlling the temperature of the fire ball, but she couldn't increase it too much because she didn't know how fire-resistant the vehicle was she was riding on.
After playing around with the magic she gained from this world, she played with her innate magical ability. She found out that her Majin magic doesn't work the exact same as the magic in this world. The Majin magic is more of utilization of her will and imagination combined to produce the result she wants and the magic of this world is more rule-orientated. If she doesn't give the exact amount of mana required for the spell or magic, it fails and if she tried to overflow the spell with mana it could burst in her face! Precise control is needed for mages in this world it seems. She believed she could even use the same type of magic Bibidi and Babidi did and even mind control people if she had enough time. But that doesn't seem likely for now, so she'll continue experimenting and for her first experiment she decided to use her racial magic on this world's magic. She used her antenna and zapped both magic balls with a pink beam.
Danielle had to stop herself from giggling at the new transformation her magic has changed into. She grinned wildly as her previous ball of color changed into rainbow colored ball filled to the brim of magic. She felt that if she dropped this ball of colors the entire surroundings would be turned into something ”magical” or if she tried to shove this into an object it would become even more amazing.
'What better testing subject is this flying carriage I'm on right now?!' Danielle was about to slam her rainbow ball into the carriage but nearly forgot about her other magic ball.
So, she held off on her first great idea and inspected the fire ball. This time she truly could not stop herself from laughing aloud. Her fireball transformed into a type of sentient fire! The flame was dancing on her hand with little cute flame eyes it made itself. It flew in the air and circled around her.
”You cute little ball of impossibility… I have no idea how I even created you, but that won't stop me from loving you.” She whispered as she hugged the flame ball.
Surprisingly, she didn't feel any heat from this thing or it could control it's temperature on it's on. The little fireball smiled at her and floated near her shoulder. Suddenly she heard a very loud and sudden roaring sound coming from below.
Her face turned red.
”I'm pretty hungry…” Danielle said meekly
She infused the magical vehicle with her rainbow ball and waited to see the effects of it with suppressed excitement.
*SWOOOOSH*
The flying carriage took off in an unbelievable speed and Danielle was forced to hang on the edge of the roof while laughing happily. The carriage dove towards the trees and then rose back high in the sky. It looped in the air and did all sorts of crazy movements as it journeyed to the Hazamund Kingdom! All while having a rainbow trail behind it.
”PINKY WHAT DID YOU DOOOOOO?!?!” Fiorello yelled while trying to regain control over his vehicle.
”HAHAHAHAHAHA!! I IMPROVED IT FOR YOU OLD MAN!” Danielle replied.
Cedar seemed to be completely terrified and was yelling the entire ride towards the Hazamund Kingdom. Rose seemed to be having fun. Danielle didn't paint her as an adventurous noble lady type at first but maybe she hid it around her family. After a couple of moments, everyone on board got used to the wild ride, except for Cedar who seemed to be holding his vomit down.
”Boy, don't you dare throw up in my carriage! Hold your head out the window and do not get it on the side of it either!”
”I'll try not to Grandfather…” Cedar replied, green in the face and hand over his mouth.
”At this speed, we will arrive days earlier than the opening ceremony… So I suppose what you did to my carriage isn't completely bad.” Fiorello said.
”Haha if you wanted to say thanks Gandalf, just say it.” Danielle teased him.
He groaned in annoyance and mumbled a thanks under his breath. Danielle laughed happily and saw their destination up ahead.
”Wow…..” Danielle awed at the sight of the beautiful fantasy kingdom.
'I definitely wouldn't be able to see something as beautiful as this back on Earth…'
The sun was rising overhead and bringing with it a nice warm flow of air, bathing Majin El in the sun's rays. Danielle saw many magical flying creatures and vehicles being directed down somewhere and guessed that in such a famous capital, they couldn't let just anyone fly around or over their city. But those flying creatures were just making her even more hungry.
'With so many of them, no one would mind if one went missing right?' Danielle thought as droll started coming down her mouth.
”How long will it take us to get inside old man?”
”We will have to wait in that line over there.”
Danielle saw the line and immediately decided that waiting on such a thing in her condition was impossible.
”Aren't you Mr. Grand Magus Amazingcus? Can't we just skip the line with your fame?”
”Even if I'm one of the majesty's elite magus, I cannot abuse my position without proper excuse.”
”There is also many other important guest that my grandfather could not possibly offend by skipping ahead of them.” Rose explained.
”Tch.. How long do you think it'll take?” Danielle asked with her hunger worsening by the second.
”With this size, about 4 hours.” Cedar replied, looking much better now that they are waiting in a line and not moving so fast.
”I'll be back guys!!” Danielle yelled after flipping off the roof of the carriage to the forest below.
”You little!! You better make it back in time or you won't even be able to make it inside without me!!!” Fiorello shouted.
Danielle just laughed cheerfully as she landed safely in the forest below. There was a separate line for people who couldn't afford to fly in magically powered vehicles and own flying creatures waiting below. She was really amazed at the number of races in this world. She thought it was be the standard elf, dwarf, human, and demon thing but nope. The gods really got around to making as many races as they could or life was really easy to produce in this world. She started to run into the forest and away from the people to finally satisfy her hunger. Once she got a far enough distance away, her antenna emitted a bright pink light and with multiple magic zaps, the surrounding trees turned into a mass of sweets. With her face in unrestrained glee, she gave in to her desire.
*2 HOURS LATER AND A COMPLETELY DEVASTED FOREST AREA*
Majin El was seen sitting on her rear, picking any sweets out of her teeth with a wooden tooth pick she made. With a finishing burp, Danielle got up and dusted herself off.
”I've never felt so free! Choosing to become a Majin was the greatest decision I've ever made.” She exclaimed to no one in particular.
She set off to explore the forest out of curiosity along with her adorable mishap, Tuff, the living magical fire. She walked and walked until she couldn't take it anymore.
”WHERE ARE THE GOBLINS AND MAGICAL CREATURES!? WHY ARE THEY ALL HIDING FROM ME?!”
Majin El jumped high in the sky and spotted multiple creatures running away from her direction. Her face turned into an angry grimace and she landed back on the ground.
”Am I emitting some sort of dangerous aura? Do I stink?” Tuff nodded once and then shook it's head.
”How do I stop it? Do you even know? You were born like a couple hours ago I think.”
Tuff nodded by going up and down again and then appeared in front of Danielle. The orange ball's temperature heated up to levels that could easily melt steel and other metals before lowering to a degree that couldn't even singe a fly.
”So I have to control my power? How?! I didn't even know I was blasting off a dangerous aura for all to see. Is it my special magic or this magic?” Danielle asked while her antenna glowed pink and a white ball formed above her hand.
Tuff hovered over the white ball and Danielle extinguished it. She then sat in a meditative position and tried to get a feel of the different types of magic inside her. There was the light magic that was shining brightly and trying to outshine the other magic she had. The fire magic that was trying to outblaze and outshine the others. The magic she still hasn't been able to control or understand yet, just doing nothing but being dark blue. And lastly her Majin magic, it was easily controlled and seemed to be an extension of her. Danielle tried to restrain and shrink the light magic and fire magic with mana but couldn't figure out exactly how to keep it down, so she did the best next thing. She released all of it.
”SCREW CONTROL!!! I NEED ADVENTURE!!!!!” Danielle yelled with a maniacal laugh.
Danielle was currently raising both palms to the sky and unleashing powerful beams of fire and light out of them. Tuff looked up with an amazed expression and danced around the laughing Danielle. After a few more moments of this, Danielle's magical reserves were empty and the elements were contained within her. She then skipped along happily in the dangerous forest waiting for an exciting incident to happen. After 5 minutes of nothing happening though, she got pissed and started causing havoc throughout the forest. Her magical reserves replenished and she lit the forest on fire and blasted the trees and grass with light beams.
Eventually she calmed down and realized that it was becoming harder and harder to control herself.
”Tuff. I think becoming a Majin is starting to take a hold of me. But the bad part is, I'm not seeing the cons quite yet.. I'm having a lot of fun!”
Tuff looked at her in confusion and the two suddenly heard multiple foot steps heading towards their location. Tuff flew towards Danielle and Danielle had an even bigger smile on her face.
”See my temper tantrum caused an event! I wonder what Ms. Fate has in store for me. Or is it Mrs. Fate? You think someone would ever marry a concept like Fate? Seems kind of romantic to me Tuff.” Danielle wondered before seeing a giant icicle flying towards her.
”HEY!” She yelled before flattening herself to the ground and staring at the four-man adventurer group on all fours.
”What's the big idea trying to kill me out of nowhere?!” She asked.
The adventurers laughed like stuck-up jerks and a sword wielder pointed his blade at her while carrying a shield on his back.
”Like I would need a reason to exterminate a demon.”
”The racism in this world is surely a problem that I will need to fix. It's crazy that people will try to kill someone that simply looks like a certain race. I'll have to teach you naughty kids a lesson.” Danielle said while wagging her finger.
They laughed even louder and Danielle finally took note of their set up. There was the warrior, mage, archer, and… fighter? The last person in their group seemed silent and weaponless. As if he wasn't originally part of this group and is only along for some reason. They were also wearing a dark cloak over their entire body during this bright and sunny day. But Danielle didn't care and just charged straight ahead.
”Eager to meet your end demon?” The mage laughed.
