《Dark Chronicles》Ch 14 Night
Advertisement
As soon as we entered [Extasy] the girls storm Alice asking her question cleaning her off, i quickly slip past on my way to Mama's office i see the customers just twiddling there finger not knowing what to do, i chuckle a little inside.
I reach Mama's office on knock on the door
"Come in"
I open the door and walk in, i see Mama sitting behind her desk working on some papers, i go and sit down in front of her
"I see your back so how did the job i sent you on"
"You want the long or the short version"
"I want the one filled with the Truth"
I told her the whole story everything that happened at the house the evidence about him smuggling children, the women i found underground, and what i did then, how i found Alice and finally of that human trash. Her face changed many times throughout my explanation and once i was done she didn't look angry or sad just troubled i didn't ask about what i just sat there and remained quite.
"Thank You Kaito i don't know what would have happened if you didn't save her"
"No it was the same thing any good person would have done"
"Well none the less i still appreciate what you did for me, i would like it if you stayed a little while free of charge of course, so what do you say"
"I would like to but i can't i have to get back to Master Bishop as soon as possible"
"I'm sure he won't mind if you just stay for one night so come on live a little"
She was right maybe i should just live a little i am tired after today and i do need a place to stay so why not"
"Sure i can stay one night but i have to leave in the morning"
"I Knew i could convince, you so here is your key it is to a special room that is only used for V.I.P, it's on the second floor i hope you enjoy it"
I Didn't really like the whole V.I.P thing, but i guess for now it's alright i take the key, and head up stairs the commotion has died down, and Alice is somewhere else now the girls are back to there jobs, i reach the room that has the same number as my key and open it up.
Inside it is very special, there are candles alight everywhere even know it's the middle of the day, the bed is queen size and has pink everything sheets cover, the only non pink thing is the frame which is gold, i look around and it is slightly similar to the [Airloft], fine i can deal with this but first i am putting out all these candles there just stupid.
'Leave them'
'What you like them Drake'
'No Moron this is a perfect chance to train you in some new magic but first change into you under clothes it will be easier that way'
I take off all my gear and place it in the closet, and my sword under the bed for safekeeping, all i have own now is my white T-shirt and Blue Shorts, i go and sit down on the bed and take the lotus position
'So now what'
'First activate the [Dragon Mark], then let the flame mana flow through you body until it has completely filled it, then let flow out of you that's step one'
I did as he told i activated my [Dragon Mark], and let the Fire mana spread through me, it was a little difficult, but i got there in the end, but the tricky part was getting it out, it was a slow process but eventually i got there but letting it out of every space on my body.

'Okay now that's done reach out to the mana'
What reach out to the mana how was i supposed to do that it's already left my body, fine i will try but don't expect me to get this on the first try i quiet my mind and use all my scenes to find the mana, at first i can't see anything, but soon i start to see it the mana it's red and shaped like water always flowing twisting and turning in the air, i reach out to it with my remaining mana i try to make a lasso and rope it around the mana but it doesn't work it just slips through, i try with different shapes but it always works the same the mana slips through damn, why isn't this working this is my mana so it should work right, wait it's my mana so i should be able to just control it with my thought right, ok now i have a new plan let's see how it works, i begin think the same sentence over and over again in my head 'Come to me' i repeat it over and over at first no reaction but over time it happens the mana starts to float towards me yes it worked.
'Great now that's done use the mana to connect to the flames on the candels'
Why can't he give a little more explanation in his teaching it would be so much easier for me, fine connect the mana to the flame that should be easy, i start to direct the mana towards the flames onto one of the candle at first i try to wrap the mana around the flame but that doesn't work it just floats through, ok next try to fuse the mana and the flame together i begin to mix them together at first the mana just floats around the flame, but then i enter the command 'Fuse' then it happens the mana and the flame start to mix together on the surface the flame doesn't change but when i look closely my mana is centered in the flame
'Took you long enough'
'You know it wouldn't have taken me so long if you gave better instructions'
'Should i hold you hand too'
'Shut up and continue the lesson'
'Okay now that your mana has fused you can control the flame try it'
Okay but how am i supposed to do that clear instructions you stupid dragon,I can't worry about that i need to concentrate first i have to feel the flame just like i did with my mana,at first i couldn't feel anything but soon i feel it the flickering of the flames the heat all around me like a new sense, now i just have to control it it should work just like when i command my mana i use a simple command 'Gather' at first nothing like always but i concentrate harder and harder on the command and soon i can feel the flames coming towards me like ribbons they float along the air soon they start swirling around me until every flame in the room is surrounding me
'Well done you now have mastered low level Pyrokinesis'
'Wait a second isn't Pyrokinesis when you start fire's with your mind and stuff'
'Yes that is high level Pyrokinesis but what you have is low level stuff which means you can only use your mana to control flames that are already around you and only flames that were started without any mana'
'Wow that will be really usefull but i will need to practice if i want to get any better'

I start to mess around with the flames around me making different shapes and reigniting the candles every once and awhile i got really good at it,but i soon started to feel tired i was starting to lose control of the flames, i quickly put them back onto the candles and took my mana out of them and flowed it back into my body.
'I see you're experiencing mana exhaustion yeah that will happen to you if you use Pyrokinesis to long, because even if it is low level Pyrokinesis it is still a top tier skill so i recommend that you only use it when need be and if you are going to train it do it once a day so that you can get use to it ok'
'Well now time to get something to eat'
Nock Nock
Suddenly there was a knock at my door i wonder who that could be.
"Who is it"
"It's me Alice"
I wonder what she wants
"Come in"
Alice walks she is wearing a grey long sleeve shirt buttoned up with a white shirt underneath and a black mini skirt on,while carrying my cloak in her hands,my cloak is cleaned and washed did she do that for me she really didn't have what a nice person.
"So here i washed it and everything so please take it"
"Thanks but you didn't have too i was fine with it being dirty"
"But i had to clean it as a sort of thank you for saving me"
"Well if that's the case then i gladly accept it"
I walk up to her and to her and accept the cloak into my hands i go and place it with the rest of my cloths
"So is there anything else i can do for you"
"Actually i also came up here to see if you would like something to eat since it is starting to get late"
What really then how long have i been up here when i came back it was still mid day i really should keep better track of the time
"Yeah i would so where can i get something to eat"
"No don't worry about that i can get it for just think of it as another thank you"
"Okay but this is the last one i can't keep using you like a servant"
"NO That won't work you saved me i am forever in your debt so please ask anything of me"
She really doesn't need to feel that indebted to me i just did the same thing that any decent person would have and if she kept doing this things, i would feel like i am taking advantage, but it also seems i am not getting out of this so i should just play along for a while
"Ok then for dinner i would like your favorite dish if you please and two servings of it"
"Okay i will get it right away"
Alice heads out of the room right away now then while she's gone i need to do a lot of preparations,First i move one of the round troubles into the middle of the room then i go and grab two chairs and place one at each,it's good but it's missing something wait i know, i go and grab a candle and place it on the table now it's perfect.
Alice returns with door dishes that look like pasta nice i actually have a slight weakness for italian especially pizza god i miss pizza but pasta is still good,she notices the table walks in place the food down and goes to leave.
"You know it can get quite lonely eating all by yourself"
"I can't believe you, you planned this from the start"
I didn't say a single word i just smiled she just put her hand to her head and shook it i think she knows that i have already one, but don't get me wrong it's not like i have those kind of feelings for Alice i just think if i do this she might forget about the whole paying me back thing plus if the only person i talk to is the Dragon spirit living in my soul then i will have absolutely no social life.
We sit down and start eating, and i have to say the pasta is really nice damn why is all the food in this world so nice is it the ingredients or is everyone just a really good cook.
"So are you leaving soon Kaito"
"Yeah probably in the morning"
"Really i would have thought you would stay a few days since you have lived in the mountains all these years"
"No i have to return to my master soon so i can continue my training"
"Oh well that does make sense"
"So are you going to stay here Alice"
"Most likely Mama promised to increase my pay by 50% so i couldn't really say no to that"
"Well that makes sense if the pay was good i would work nearly anywhere"
We continue to eat and i have to say the pasta in this world is way better in my world maybe i should learn how to cook from master,i did learn a little cooking in my world but it was just simple curry nothing as fancy as what this world has.
"Hey Kaito is this a date"
"No why would you think that"
"Well we are eating pasta in a candle lit room with just the two of us so how could i not get to that conclusion"
"Sorry but no it's not a date, i would just get lonely eating pasta in my room by myself"
"That's good because you are totally not my type"
"Pardon me not your type well then miss Alice who is your type"
"Hmmm let me think a smart guy, who is not only really handsome but also sensitive and caring, the kind of guy who remembers your birthday and rents a horse carriage just to celebrate it that's my type, oh and he has to love math"
"Okay i will give you credit besides the whole math part how is that not me"
"Hah you are so not the guy i described, i have to admit you are really good looking but and are probably smart as well, but the sensitive part you are not, and to me you look like a total bad boy the type who runs around getting in fights and not giving a crap about rules, so am i on the money or what"
I hate to admit it but that really is like me i will fight anyone, and i couldn't care less about rules why did she have to be so accurate
"Fine you got me"
"I knew it so now that i told you my type, tell me yours"
"What why should i"
"Simple so i can set you up with someone"
"Nope no not happening"
"Oh come on please i know several girls who would be perfect for you"
"No way ever are you setting me up with anyone"
"Fine but come on you still have to tell me your type it's only fair"
"Okay just stop talking about this once i have told you okay"
"Deal"
"My type of girl i guess a strong girl someone who i can i can stand next to in the heat of battle, and know they have my back but also with a sweet side on the inside and i can have a honest conversation with and tell all my secrets to that's my kind of girl"
"That's sound like the perfect match for a guy like you"
"Hey what suppose to mean"
"Nothing"
After that we continue to eat once we were finished we stacked our dishes and Alice takes them out of the room
"Thanks it was really fun we should do it more often"
"Yeah maybe next time i'm in [Vienstlelle]"
Then she left,i rearranged my room back to what it was and went to bed, it's really fun having a friend.
Authors Note:
I hope everyone enjoyed the new power and the conversation between Kaito and Alice so like always see you tomorrow

8 219Tironia
Reincarnated on the world of Tironia, I find myself naked and alone. Apart from the fact that I've been linked with a less than helpful companion, through my own doing no less. All I want is a kick-ass name and some super-sweet magic. "Is that too much to ask for?" Apparently so. All I got, was a schizophrenic sidekick and a set of bad jokes. "Is it time to start shitting my pants yet?" Note: If you enjoy my first novel, please leave a rating or a comment. Constructive criticism is also appreciated. As of now Tironia is complete. I need to edit the chapters however as there are many, many mistakes. Once that's complete, I will begin work on Erins next adventure: Dungeon Igo. Current Chapter Rewritten: 1

Her breath linked her heart's rhythm, and some blood petals that spewed from her vanquished foes turned her rosy cheeks rose. Just as her heart was beginning to soothe due to the brief respite with in sea of blood and torn armor. A man in red and black heavy steel stood in front of her, taunting her with a massive halberd that seemed to half the heaven's from her abyss like pearl eyes. With her remaining mana and stamina, she positions her blade at the front of her chest, twisting it to the side and gazing at the dark warrior. She chanted her skill. "...point grace..." Author Note: Um hello, I'll say it now its very rough this is basically like the alpha version and i'll update it after the release of vol.1 even if its the only vol. this story will ever receive
