Chapter 29 - The Ark Of Time And Dark (2/2)

”You're one to criticize, Dark Mage,” replied Raiyen, rolling his eyes.

Baldwin was taken aback, how dare he mention such a thing? Baldwin's face was red. Minwoo tried his best to hide his laughter. While Ysabeau tried to remain calm with the circus at the table, Mavislin could not care less and continued to eat.

”I challenge you to recite what you've just remarked,” growled Baldwin.

His Aura began growing, darkness seeping around him. Raiyen stood up, glaring at him in reply. Through the two males' fierce gazes, Mavislin had noticed that Raiyen's Aura was beginning to show.

”Dark Mages are even more dangerous than us Time Mages, so who are you to talk to me like that?” answered Raiyen, as his Aura slowly came into fulfillment.

”Are they that powerful?” asked Minwoo, looking at Gillian for confirmation.

”Add a Valkyrie into the mix and you will have an assemblage of problems,” commented Gillian, shaking his head.

Instead of the standard uniform colors, like Baldwin's dark purple Aura, Raiyen's Aura was both green and blue. More accurately, the left side of him was green while the right side was blue. Minwoo looked amazed at the rainbow of colors at the table.

Gillian mumbled a word of praise to the Time Mage and made Mavislin smile by giving her an eyeball to eat. The White Rat looked disgusted as Mavislin happily ate the eyeball.

”No Elements on the dining table!” shouted Ysabeau, upset at the two blockheads emitting Auras.

Raiyen was frozen stiff as he had not expected Ysabeau to shout unpredictably. The inferior, shaken thing slumped back down onto his seat.

”Sorry about Baldwin's behavior, young lad. What's your name?” asked Gillian, turning to look at Raiyen.

”Raiyen,” replied the boy who had a piece lamb in his mouth.

Now, Mavislin nudged Raiyen's side.

”Want one?” asked Mavislin, holding out an eyeball using a fork.

His face replied with disgust. Seeing Mavislin was getting upset, he quickly plunged the piece of a body part that Mavislin held out. The squishy thing exploded within the confines of his mouth. It was rather comical to witness Raiyen trying to eat the eyeball.

Mavislin giggled as Raiyen weakly gave a thumbs-up before passing out.

”Great, now you've gone and killed a poor boy,” said Minwoo, shaking his head.

With a very frightened and shocked Valkyrie, Mavislin started to cry once more. The a.d.u.l.t Mages shook their heads. The Old Chapel sent down her rabbit plushie and into the crying girl's arms.

”Why did you remind her of killing?” asked Gillian, glancing at Minwoo in disapproval.

Minwoo did his best to soothe the crying child by carrying her. To everyone's shock, Mavislin stopped crying when Minwoo gave her a little snuggle with her eyepatch bunny.
