Chapter 11
The duel
“Hitora, you simply are a fool.”
“eh?”
“You challenged the strongest knight in the entire clan, Kuriollus, if there is one extreme talent, it is him, although he hasn’t reached his potential he surpasses even me and Elizabeth who are from a direct bloodline.”
The…strongest…knight…
Okay I should quit. But I’ve come too far.
I hold the sword in my hand, it’s blade elegant and light. Lehtrious, by itself it relatively powerful.
“Hello master, are we engaging in combat! Shall I walk through my various combat modes and abilities, after all I am a legendary sword!”
“No thanks, just show me in battle.”
“Yes!”
I pull the legendary sword out of its sheath on my back.
“Engaging defense mode!”
A suit of armor surrounds my body. Huh?
I hear the gasp and’s looks of surprise from my classmates, “What, type of sword he is using?”
Prepare the feel wrath of Lehtrious, it’s blade shining in all it’s glory.
“Prepare to die fool!” I say as I charge with my first strike.
I swung my sword towards Kuriollus, it was a fast blur of motion, as I struck it down upon him.
But he was too fast.
He moves to the left of the attack as if it was nothing.
My first magic powered strike is gone.
I only have one chance to beat this guy, even though I have a legendary weapon and very good amour. My experience in combat is little, and this guy is an extreme talent.
There is a smirk on his face that says it all, he’s won.
He was previously unarmed, but now in his hands was nothing but a medium grade sword, looking from its appearance.
Before I knew it his blade was piercing through the left side that was open.

Or so I thought so.
Somehow, I landed behind him, and Lehtrious was placed in his torso.
“I won…”
He landed of my blade and fell to the floor.
“I really won?”
And then his body was flung across the room from the elixir I made.
There I was standing looking at a man I had killed in battle, an extreme talent!
“Haha…”
A devil some laugh filled the room.
His body disjointed, and a gory mess rose to it’s feet. It was back to it’s previous stage, it’s body regenerated.
His left eyes was emitting a strange redness.
Huh?
“I didn’t think I’d pull my trump card on a mere mouse like you, it seems you are a worthy opponent, but you simply don’t deserve the ability to do magic, once I defeat you, I’ll leave you with a greater punishment than death!”
He runs at me with immense speed, my body weak and frail from the powerful strikes I used, could do nothing but wait in agony.
He punches in the stomach so fast and hard that my body is blown to the other side of the hall, he teleports right next to me.
“Your punishment is… you will never be able to use magic ever again!”

Transposition
Please note: the Sexual Content tag is there due to a single brief plot-relevant scene, which has a warning at the beginning. For other details, read the full description below. Rating breakdown, since that should be public info: 5 x 5*, 2 x 4.5*, 1 x 0.5* During a blackout, a frail and ragged old woman stops to ask for a glass of water from a backyard barbecue party. Given a good supper instead, she looks around the group, and tells them, "Be who and what you truly are." Days later, seven of the people from the barbecue find themselves drawn into a trap laid by a pair of wizards and their accomplices, who kidnap them into a bubble reality. All seven, who have known each other all their lives, are informed that they are not in fact entirely human: they have active fae blood, due to a series of conditions culminating with the blessing of the elderly fae woman. The transformation into fae form comes as a shock: all seven, whether originally female or male, find themselves now unreasonably beautiful women. More urgent even than that, though, is their captivity. Getting back to the real world is a higher priority than this metamorphosis that rapidly begins to feel natural... but this is only the first step, as the diverse types of fae blood they carry begin to surface. With no resources except themselves, how can they escape this prison? If they succeed, how can they possibly reclaim their lives? Just how many other faelings have been kidnapped, anyway, and what happened to them? And is there a way to make sure that their captors never put anyone else through this? Back in the real world, Kayla, who learned long ago to trust her gut instincts, is absolutely certain that something is very wrong. The pattern in the list of missing friends is easy to spot, but makes no sense at all. Then a young woman turns up at the backyard gate who knows more than she should, and even though her explanation makes even less sense, every instinct tells Kayla that Riley is her only way to get them back. If they're not quite what they were, well, that's a bridge to cross later... Just a little note: I'm a big believer in endings that are upbeat but not candy-coated, and not a fan of grim-and-gritty or of glamorized violence. These are adults in a difficult situation. However, no one gets raped, and the physical violence is, all things considered, fairly minimal. There is some harassment, sexual and otherwise, and also some mild restraint and mild verbal abuse. Complicating factors are generally wizardly or fae in nature. If I need to warn you about gender in this being all over the map, some of it reality-based rather than fantasy-based, highly diverse sexuality, or that there is (especially later) some indirect fetish/BDSM imagery and honest character discussion, then you probably should just avoid everything I write. :-) Also available on Scribble Hub.
