Chapter 149 - Library. (1/2)
Reaching the library took longer than I had hoped, and it may or may not have to do with how much questions about my relationship with Allessa Elsa is asking. I would have shut her down harshly but the stars in her eyes made me not do it, she seems to be enjoying it simply too much.
The first image I had from the two other members of our group was... intense, yeah that's the word for it, they were kissing so intensely that I thought they were trying to fuse, I just looked at it not even blinking, and took a seat close, I've seen way worse things in my time as an Anbu, infiltration mission weren't always clean, some times I had to kill pimps or other more degenerate people.
Elsa is a little fl.u.s.tered but they were able to notice her presence and had the dignity to look a little bit fl.u.s.tered. Elsa then proceeds to greet then and introduce me:
”Hey, this one here is Joseph the final member of our team, now we can begin team training.”(Elsa).
Both look surprised seeing me there, I bet they haven't noticed my presence until now, must be one of those people that are too dependent on skill to sense people, I've long since known how problematic depending on only one skill to sense someone, thanks Anbu training.
”Hey people, my name is Joseph Goldheart and I am a student of the Quake Tower, nice to meet you.”(Aizen).
”Well my name is Rick Raum and I am a student of Fire Act, this is my girlfriend Gwen Angelus, she is a student of High Wind.”(Rick).
”Nice to meet you”(Gwen).
”Now to improve the relationship between our team we can say our likes, dislikes, and dreams for the future, I will start.”(Elsa).
”I like, swimming and water the most but I also have a sweet tooth, I particularly dislike nobles and young masters, but what I hate the most is lightning. My dream is to one day have a happy family of my own.”(Elsa).
”I personally like to read a lot, second only to fighting and finding interesting things, my favorite pass time is watching anime with a person I like. I personally hate young masters too, and my hate for the gods grows by the day. My dream right now is to read this entire library.”(Aizen).
”I like doing things with my fire magic a lot, my favorite hobby is to cook with it. I dislike liars the most and my dream for the Future is marrying Gwen.”(Rick).
”I like healing and helping people and I am training to be a healer, besides the normal course, I hate pimps and rapists the most and my dream for the future is marrying Rick.”(Gwen).
”Good, now we at least know a little bit about each other. So let discuss our specialties a little bit Why don't you start Joseph? seeing as you are the new member.”(Elsa).
”Sure. I have very good control of my elements both by earth and water. Maybe I can be used as a control specialist?”(Aizen).
”It's indeed a good idea, we will see about that. I have very good water and lightning affinity, but I hate using lightning seeing as I am part Shark and the lightning always bothers or outright hurt me whatever I use, so I ended up disliking it a lot and focusing more on my water affinity.”(Elsa).
”I have a very hight fire affinity wich was my focus until now, I am particularly good with burst damage and I hope I can be the assault-type of our group”(Rick)
”I have a very hight wind affinity wich was my focus and a fire affinity that I mostly left alone, I and Rick were trying to help each other out with our affinities when we met each other, it was one of the things that made us closer, I want to specialize in healing and support if possible.”(Gwen).
”Hey, we have a pretty good team here, Two assault types a control type and a support type. A pretty good composition if you ask me, any ideas you have that can help us in the future is appreciated.”(Elsa)
”Well, I and Gwen were working in some combinations moves to help further our damage, wind and fire are notorious good combinations.”(Rick).
”Yep, we were even able to form some kind of fire tornado together, it dealt a pretty good damage too.”(Gwen).
”Wow, that's incredible, for all I know you need a very good compatibility and synchrony to be able to pull something like that off.”(Elsa).
”And you Joseph? have something you thought it would be good to add?”(Elsa).
”Well have you thought of Using Scorch? or Storm elements? It would surely help our combat abilities.”(Aizen).
”No way. Advanced elements, are you crazy? it almost impossible to do it, only the best of the best can.”(Elsa).
”I can give a little help to you if you want, the way you were attracted to my Storm Release in the classroom was a cleary indication that you need that, at least to balance your magic.”(Aizen)
”Wait... You can use storm release? but isn't your affinity just earth and water?”(Elsa).
”Not having an affinity doesn't mean you can't, it only means it's harder.”(Aizen).
”Awesome, so please teach us *-*.”(Elsa).
”Sure, but I won't be holding your hands all the way, I can show all of you both my Scorch and Storm, but I won't do it for you, after my tips and demonstrations you are on your own, I can clear some doubts you have too. But if you disturb me too much I will break your legs.”(Aizen).
To show then it was possible I first created some wood with my Wood Release, their surprised face was quite good and I definitely saved it in my memory.
”As you can see it is not impossible, the combination for Water And Earth is Wood, it is one of the most powerful elements due to its incredible versatility and flexibility, it is very ideal to control things, but I am not planning to show this too soon, I wanted to get a feel of the school first, so any tests I will mostly use Earth.”(Aizen).
”Ohh soo cool, I didn't even know that Wood element existed. It sounds very strong too”(Elsa).
”I know right. But let us focus on your Storm Release first, it is composed of Both water and Lighting and it can come in multiple forms depending on the owner creativity, but the most common ones are Laser or Storm clouds, the Storm release has both the destructive potential of lighting and the conductivity and malleability of water, its a very deadly combination if done right. And maybe if one day you became a Sage your Storm Release could even reach the speed of light or beyond.”(Aizen).
”Oh I never thought the Storm Release had such potential, I guess I will need to up a bit my lightning mastery”.(Elsa).
”I have some exercises that will surely help your mastery, but remember what I will give you are just the basics, I encourage you to create your own exercises it will surely suit you better.”(Aizen).
”Thanks. Can you show Storm Release again? I wanted to at least get a proper feel of it.”(Elsa).
”Sure, but don't touch it. It can literally instakill you if aren't cautious.”(Aizen).
”Okey.”(Elsa).
With that I slowly formed a ball of Storm Release lasers, this time doing it more slowly to help the little shark get the feel of it.
”I don't know how to describe it, but Storm just feels so right to me, is this strange?”(Elsa).
”Nah, you probably already had the affinity for it as I expected.”(Aizen).
With that I made my Stormy release ball dissipate in a bunch of storm release lines, It quite difficult to control then but I just had to use the water to guide them around, it surely formed a beautiful visage all around us.
I used the opportunity to make some storm clouds too, it's important that she can get a good grasp of the feeling of it. It will help her in the future as it helped me.
”Were you able to get the feel of it?”(Aizen).
”Yeah, I certainly engraved it in my mind.”(Elsa).
”I will do it every reunion of us until you can grasp it, and this will be as far as I will go, the same is valid for the couple.”(Aizen).
”Now we get to the Scorch Release, but to understand the Schorch Release you need to understand flames first the weakest to the strongest type of flames follow this order: Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, White with white being the strongest.”(Aizen).
”But what about the Inferno Release (Fire+Lightning), the flames are black and pretty strong too.”(Rick).
”The Inferno Release has that name specifically because those flames are flames from hell, they just want to consume and burn things, if you don't have an incredible control or some special means is extremely stupid to mess with it.”(Aizen).
”I understand, sorry for interrupting.”(Rick).
”No problem. Going back to the Schorch Release, the wind is part of the Scorch Release Amplify the flames and gives then a different property, so the strongest you flames the more effective your Scorch release will be, but you shouldn't neglect you wind either, it is literally half of the equation itself.”(Aizen).
With that, I summoned a small Scorch Release ball, the heat was evident, suddenly everyone started to sweat a bit, sweat that was quickly evaporating, followed by everyone mouth becoming dry, even some lips started cracking due to dehydration. I stooped the Schorch Release.
”What a terrifying existence is the Advanced/Combined elements...”(Rick).
”This I completely agree, if normal elements have a lot of potentials you can guess how much a combination of then can give, you must also have in mind that the combination element have the propriety of both its contents, so it is entirely possible to do some really crazy things with it.”(Aizen).
”Thanks for Everything Aizen. But I am very thirst right now, so who want to go to the cafe and pick up some cold latte?”(Elsa).
”Me/Me/Me”(Aizen/Gwen/Rick).
”You and Gwen should be going first, I have some words I need to exchange with Rick man to man.”(Aizen).
”Sure. But don't make us wait too much.”(Elsa).
Gwen and Elsa's swiftly left for the cafeteria, both I and Rick waited in silence. Soon Rick wasn't able to handle the awkward silence anymore and said:
”What do you-”(Rick).
Suddenly a heavy gravitational pressured pushed on him, he instantly goes to the ground, he would have screamed to everyone hear if it wasn't for the seals I placed in here before our talk, as if I would let any kind of info leak.
”Let me set a simple rule here Demon. You only talk when asked. Capiche?”(Aizen).
”Yes.”(Rick).
”Good. What a Demon from the Raum and Belial line is doing here? and f.u.c.k.i.n.g an Angel nonetheless.”(Aizen).
”I don't care what you say about me, but let Gwenadiel out of this!”(Rick).
”Interesting... A demon and Angel love story, a cleary modern representation of Romeo and Juliet... romantic. Sadly you haven't answered my question so things are going to become a little bit heavier for you”(Aizen).
”Wait, wait I am just here to pass some time with her and study.”(Rick).
”Do I look like I am stupid to you? I know for a fact that demons aren't taught in human society, not even the half-bloods. Principally someone from such a noble line as a mix of Raum and Belial”(Aizen).
”I have run from home ok. They would never permit my relationship with Gwenadiel!!”(Rick).
”Humm interesting...”(Aizen).
With that, I removed the gravitational pressure from him, he seems immediately relieved. I just looked at him in the eyes and sent the most menacing smile I could muster:
”If you try anything funny Demon. I will kill you. And both of you better come clean with Elsa, lies only feed lies after all. I will even tell you bunch my real name...”(Aizen).
”Ok, I don't see a problem with the Shark girl, she doesn't appear to be the type to spread the secrets of people.”(Rick).
”But why did you attack me first? I presume you want to confront Gwenadiel too right?”(Rick).
”Did you even need to ask? Demon duh!”(Aizen).
”Oh right. Hehe.”(Rick).
”I didn't kill you at first sight only because Gwenadiel was pure. Yes, she really loves you for her to not be corrupted like that, Angels can't taste sin, after all, so she hasn't fallen because her love is truly pure. You lucked out with that one. Don't screw it up.”(Aizen).
”I know, and I truly love her. But on another note, how can you know so much about the elements?”(Rick).
”Ah, it's because I can use all of them.”(Aizen).
