Midgard and Dora were sitting face to face in an armchair, the young man, with his head lowered, slowly opened his eyes which gave off a red-orange light. He shifted his weight back into the comfortable embrace of his chair, crossing his legs as he settled in. His eyes narrowed slightly and he furrowed his brow, his expression clearly indicating that he was not pleased with the woman sitting across from him.

"So? What business do you have with me?"

With a mocking stare, she taunted him.

"Yes, You only smile when you're fighting."

"Don't waste my time. If you don't tell me soon, I won't answer your calls anymore. What do you want?"

Midgard tilted her head and responded.

"I just need some confirmation. If I recall correctly, none of your alter egos can take control of the main body if one is already in control, except in the case of the Delta Body. So, for instance, Sigma cannot return unless you give him control, am I correct?"

The young man's gaze darkened and his eyes narrowed.

    If the Nebula Royal Academy is the sword that slays enemies, Saint Nova is the crown that guides the Kingdom. This is how the two establishments which were the pride of the nobility were described.The Nebula Royal Academy had a breathtakingly beautiful setting, looking more like a castle than an academy, compared to that, Saint Nova was heaven on earth.Walkways paved with flagstones of different colors, flowering bushes lined up like servants greeting their masters, and the walls and corridors were decorated with precious stones or statues, it was not a school, it was a jewel.I had started classes at Nebula for almost a month now, and I was enjoying all the benefits of my new life, but this sight was putting a damper on my smile."How much? How much is all this worth?"I come from a place where children followed their parents in their daily work to help them get enough to live another day and prepare for their future, my sister and I could not go to school because the only one ther

    A refreshing breeze wafted through the young man who raised his head, with a serene smile and slowly opened his eyes."Hm, I've forgotten what it felt to have so much power... Alright, let's do it!"He crossed the angelic corridor, on either side, there were students from Saint Nova, dressed in elegant uniforms and hairstyles as if for a gala, they were chatting friendly and one after the other, turned towards this student wearing the Nebula Academy military uniform."Hm? Who's this girl?... Wait..."“Ah, Yeah, the exchange students were for today, right?”"So he's a real emissary? What's his name? He's quite charming."They made a fuss as he passed by, he could have easily decided to talk to one of them to settle this matter, but he had a specific target."Hello? Can you hear me?"“No, but I can see your words, so, anything better than asking stupid questions?”"Good, this primitive behavior confirms that there is a part of Sigma in you, now for the rest of the plan, I need you to tak

    Dora shook her head and turned her gaze to a living object hidden behind the tree.“Well, it doesn’t matter, I’m not here for this anyway.”“Oh really? Because I feel like you’re going to backstab me after my fight with the prince.”Dora’s eyes widened as he realized that he had put his feet in the eye of the storm."Prince? Who’s the prince?! Don’t tell me…”He looked at the frail boy, devastated to see his toad hiding an ox, but this misunderstanding triggered Moonra, who stepped forward.“Are you for real… You don’t know your own prince? Are you living under a rock?!”“To be honest, I spent most of my life in the countryside… My apologies, my glorious prince, God bless you.”He curtsied to the little boy, who flinched in response while Moonra burned with rage. For the first time, Freya showed a different expression and stifled a slight laugh while coughing."Okay, change of rules, I'll take you first, and then I'll take care of the other idiot!"“Why are you angry, man? Don't act l

    Freya gazed at Gersey for a moment, her face betraying her lack of emotion."People in the other one?" she asked.Gersey hesitated before responding, his voice filled with uncertainty."Yeah... I can't explain it, but this one isn't normal, emissary-like normal. He was looking at me like he was trying to dominate me, so I looked back... But when I met his gaze, I felt like his eyes were no longer his own... I felt 'their' gaze"He shuddered and wrapped his arms around himself. Freya regarded him coldly before turning to look down the corridor."Your intuition has always been accurate. Who was he?" she inquired."I don't know. He never said his name." Gersey replied, his voice strained.She bit her lip and pivoted to face Hope and Moonra, who were engaged in a heated argument."What now? Are you ready to fight or will you run again?" Hope, looking forlorn, replied,"I've never fled from a battle, my prince. I'm just feeling a bit fatigued right now.""You're lying! You ran when that m

    Dora gained more and more confidence and readjusted the hair falling on his forehead. She looked straight into the eyes of a young girl who was trying to avoid his gaze. "My Lady, I apologize for my rudeness. I was so amazed by your presence that I forgot to ask for your name. Mine is Anesidora… Carper? Yes, Carper, and if you could kindly tell me your name, it would make me the happiest person in the world.""Is this really not a joke?... Are you...Are you f-f-f-flirting?"His smile widened again, she was an easy target."God, am I flirting? I have to say no, flirting is for the player who wants to have fun, but here I'm not playing, it's a job interview, a fight, a test, me, in the name of the moon, I am ready to fight a thousand wars just to your liking.""… I know! You look like a girl, you are a girl, right? Your friends are spying on us and will make fun of me if I agree."Midgard's giggle could be heard, much to his displeasure."Is that the voice of a girl, my lovely, wonderf

    The two faced each other in the corridor of all dangers. Dora, suspicious, took a look at the surroundings.“Don’t worry, there’s no one else here, it’s only us.”"Oh, really? What happened to your vanguard?"He asked, never looking directly at the girl but only scrutinizing the surroundings, expecting to get jumped on, much to the amusement of Freya.“They had other businesses, speaking of which, have you found the toad you were looking for?”"... Maybe? Why the interrogation thought? Is there a problem? Is this because I joked a little with the prince?""I'm telling you not to worry, I'm here on my own terms, for myself." She knows with a serious tone, "You've picked my interest, so I would like to confirm a few things about you."Her voice and facial expression didn't show any malice, she wasn't just a beautiful girl, her grace, tone, and antic were of the level of a sovereign. Maybe because his senses were getting sharper, Dora understood that it was better to behave for now.“Wha

    Marie's POV***It's been a month since we officially joined the Southern Guild. I remember how the first day was a total blast.Several minutes after our registration, Leon and the others managed to join us. They were infuriated, Leon wanted to go right away to the capital to find Idiora and make him pay. We tried to convince him that it wasn't necessary but then Erick labeled us as traitors.But eventually, after a little while, their anger had subsided. We officially became an E-ranked team from the Guild and were dispatched to more missions than we were used to, of course, we weren't beginners, so we accomplished many achievements in a very short time period.The salary was a little short for a whole party, but we knew that things would get better as time passed. But it actually tends to be the opposite.During the very same week, we noticed a considerable increase in our power, and after the guild re-evaluated our level, we were promoted to D-rank. It was honestly our peak.But s

    (A few weeks ago)In the royal castle, the Queen sat on the edges of her fountain. Charming ladies, wearing chitons, sat around her, some singing captivating melodies and others with harps, playing light music, a true heaven on earth.The Queen took a glass of grape juice served to her by one of the young ladies and drank a few sips, when further away, the wind blew, followed by the appearance of a servant with elf ears."Queen Gloria, I'm back."She curtseyed to the queen who handed her her glass, smiling."Well, I felt bad for letting one of my precious nymphs perform such a shameful task.""Do not worry, my Queen, it is my pleasure to be a weapon for the kingdom.""Hm, come, join us."She took a few steps forward, and one of the ladies opened her hands and blew towards her, spreading a pink wind that covered the servant and illuminated her clothes.The spark faded gradually, revealing the outfits replaced by an angelic white chiton.The servant slowly walked towards her but suddenl

    "Hello everyone, I hope you've been well during these past months, for those who got chosen as knights of course. For the others like me, it has been a wonderful 2 months, going to studies learning new things, with the same people, having to see the empty seats of our classmates who got chosen... Even some E-rank have beautiful noble ladies... There were boys but maybe there are ulterior motives..."“HM-HM!!!” Thomas coughed."Oh, yeah, let's get back to today's topic. I am Maxim, but for the ladies, Max, or Sir Max, or Sir M... Sounds like maso... And today we are reunited for the 3rd meeting of the student council, after the break. Allow me to introduce you to some special guests."Maxim took a few steps stopped in front of Iris's table and curtsied."From the very first time, this year, we have the blessing of enthroning our wonderful princesses, the Queen in our heart, the symbol of grace and beauty, Lady Freya... and Cid, the unworthy."Cid groaned in his seat while Freya ignored

    The train, carrying Dora's group, towards the capital passed through a sleeping landscape. Cabins equipped with beds served as dormitories and were divided between the girls and Dora and Hope.Dora turned around in his bed, seeing the images of Mary and Lilith leaving, again and again.He clutched his chest, troubled by this burning sensation that hadn't existed in him years before.Regret? Sadness? Melancholy? He couldn't give it a name and decided to walk to clear his mind.He disappeared from his bed and reappeared in another car, but as he used his power, he held his hand.Our power shouldn't be wasted on this.He opened his eyes, looking at his reflection in the glasses as if he had just seen a monster.He was breathing heavily and his hands were shaking."What is happening?""!!!... Mid... Midget...?""What are you doing? You don't need to speak out loud, do you want someone to hear you?... What's bothering you so much?"He calmed down a bit, looking at his fingers, even though

    Leon was lying on his back, looking at the blue sky, he wasn't thinking about anything in particular, or even feeling.Little by little, everything turned white, everything around him disappeared and when he blinked, he was in his hometown, in his little house next to his grandmother.She was about to read him a book about the hero, but as soon as she opened the book, he felt uneasy."Being a hero isn't so great after all."A hero must fight to the end, isn't that too tiring? Maybe a normal life as a shopkeeper would be better? Especially when we have the blessing of the emissaries. You can work better and you don't have the burden of always getting stronger. You're not competing against nature's tricksters like avatars...He didn't feel anything, but he smiled, he was happy.He raised his hand and whispered."... just... just... you wait... andma... I'll... I'll take care of... the shop... don't... don't... do not worry..."The hand hit the ground, and his fighting spirit disappeared.

  • Perfect Avatar   Massacre, The Monster with Yellow Eyes

    Leon's eyes twitched frantically and his poor self fell back, perhaps in an attempt to wake up from a nightmare, as the monster before him looked at him curiously, its yellow eyes reflecting the soul of a soon-to-be broken hero."Wh-What... What...""Hm?... Curious, it's too early for you to be afraid of us. Take a breath and calm down."Leon took a step back, feeling a shiver across his back."How do you plan to reach us if you keep walking away? You wanted to play the hero, so we're just giving you a suitable opponent. Let's play."He took a step forward and spread his arms."Hello, Hero. We are the monster with the yellow eyes, and our name is... G####"A powerful wave of energy emanated from his body, spreading across the plain.Leon felt his body burning and freezing to the extreme, several times in the blink of a second and instinctively dropped his sword... Or so he thought."....?"He tried to move his body, to move backward, but nothing happened. He realized he could no longe

  • Perfect Avatar   The Hero Never Fails: Leon vs. Dora

    The sun was high in the sky, as was the tension in the air as a hero prepared to face a monster on a plain. Everyone was gathered in a corner, and several meters in front of them, the 2 founders of Shining Sword were facing each other. Kraim stood in the middle and was about to give the signal."Very well... So this is a battle to determine the future of the Shining Sword team. If the gray-haired snake wins, Shining Sword will be dismantled, the false hero will retire, and many dreams will be crushed... If only someone with just a little compassion, a little love, and a human heart, would certainly have mercy... But who am I kidding?""Indeed." Dora nodded indifferently. Kraim sighed and glanced at Leon with annoyance."Well... I'm not a hype man, but it really is suicide. The rules are the same as a traditional mock battle, you use everything in your power, and kill if you want to live a life in prison... Well, even there, the law is fine for royal knights, so... Begin when I'm far

    The night was cool and the breeze brought a sweet, and spicy scent to Dora's nose as he sat alone on a plain. He had his arms crossed and kept his eyes closed."You're awfully quiet tonight, little toy."A familiar voice woke him from his torpor."I'm just thinking.""Are you sure? I should be able to read your thoughts, so what is this silent thought?"He opened his eyes and looked at the starry night."My heart and brain are bothering me."" What's wrong? Do you regret parting with your friends?He remained silent for a few seconds and sighed."I don't know, I've never felt like this before... We have to go our own way but... I wouldn't mind if it lasted longer."The silence was deafening, broken only by Dora's breathing.Suddenly, he felt the presence of someone or something behind him. A chill ran down his spine as a shadowy figure materialized and sat beside him.Midgard was next to him, in her normal form, that of a young adult with tired eyes and unkempt hair."... Oh, I forgot

    I don't remember who I was or where I came from, I know I'm not from there because my parents were discussing crossing a border. I saw snowy fields, white, cold, and endless lands, but what I remember most was the anguished faces of my parents.I know today that they were worried, I didn't understand why, but I suppose they were right since they were killed.We were in a car going at high speed when I heard a deafening noise.The car hit a group of bushes and several people approached us. My mother came to pick me up and hugged me warmly, telling me that I had to survive.My father hugged us, then took something out of his bag and rushed towards them, my mother focused her magic to create a bird that grabbed me and took me away.My last memory was the roar of gunfire. The bird carried me for a few minutes before disintegrating further into the forest.I got up and walked around a lot crying, I don't remember why I cried, I'm more intrigued by why I kept walking.I don't remember what

    “The healer is the most important role in a party.”It's a teaching I received in the orphanage where I grew up. When I was 14, the director of the orphanage explained to us that the rift situation was getting worse. I never really understood what it was, boys often use that term when playing heroes and monsters, so I just thought it was a childish game, but if the director is talking about that then should that be important?They called people in black suits, I've been here long enough to know it wasn't moms and dads coming to take us to better places, no one cares about us after all, we get old and then we leave, it has always been like that.They came with strange crystal balls to search for something in us, I just wanted to do it before lunch, there's usually not enough food for everyone so you have to hurry, but this day was very strange for me.People in suits would ask us to put our hands on the crystal balls and then usually say something like fingers or nothing, but when my t
