The boys were finally experiencing the flames they'd just fanned. They didn't think something like this would be the result of the insults, they didn't expect her to be able to use Transcendent abilities this early, and to this extent. How was this little girl, no, this half-human able to bring them out to this extent while still sealed?
Looking at their parents they slowly backed toward them as they heard their yells of frustration and anger, they failed to realize that if something happened their parents wouldn't be able to help them, especially after Nizael spoke over the commotion.
Karma was fuming, both literally and figuratively, even though she was still due to visit the Mirror of Yuletti she was still sparking, and her right fist was engulfed by a heap of flames, that screeched like the war cry of a ghastly bird.
The flame on her hand flicked between red and blue multiple times as Karma's face continued to contort in anger while failing to calm herself down, while doing so she remembered something her father once said.
Karma's a Bitch.
Understanding the meaning of said phrase only brought a grin to her childish face, she was hoping that nobody would stop what she was planning to do to these loud-mouthed brats.
She would give them exactly what they deserved and teach them the consequences of playing with fire.
An outsider seeing this would say that Karma was a rare talent and that she could surpass most Detrids once she transcends, even if they don't say it out loud they would most certainly think so. Yet, even so, she was still a child when compared to the boys, they've already visited the Mirror and transcended. The boys' capabilities were subpar at best when compared to their peers, but they could still handle a non-Transcendent.
The boys chanted a similar word in their heads, Voltreind! - Voltreind! - Voltreind!. This word was one of the Words Of Enforcement granted to Detrid people that have Transcended through the Mirror of Yuletti. The Words Of Enforcement are used to enhance the strength of the Transcendent using them. This word specifically was meant to increase the force of a creature, whether that be strength or just an increase in mass.
Two of the boys used it to enhance their strength, while the boy that incited this incident and also seemed to be their leader, chose to raise his mass as the wind started to visibly gather around him.
Watching them Nizael could tell they were going to cause a mess, not to mention some carpet had already been burnt by Karma. Holding out her hand a nearby guard brought over a black object made up of mini triangles, a virtual triangle with a keypad on it popped out and she entered a few things before tossing it in the air.
- "I will let them play for a few moments."
With the device in the air, it expanded into a million more triangles and contained the four troublemaking children within it. This device is called the "Triangular Isolation Object Tool" also known as TIOT.
Now that the battle was contained within the TIOT Nizael stepped down the stair and joined the others while she got a good look at all of the guest's faces.
She stood in front of the man that had insulted both Karma and her granddaughter, Nizael was tall enough to look down on the man that looked to be at least six feet tall and had flowers budding on his neck, with the head of a rhinoceros and... monkey? Combined.
Anyways, she looked down at the strange creature that had the gall to mock the beloved child of the Bavel family in their own home. It was infuriating watching and hearing about how these people think, they were already on the brink of war yet all these greedy animals vying for power felt the need to bring down children.
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
Nizael didn't even need to look up at the railings to know that Lulu was watching the entire fiasco, I mean who could focus on art while there were such annoyingly loud events that were occurring.
Back to looking down on the man, Nizael was seriously contemplating killing the man in front of her, Soletti knows it'll make her feel much better especially after hearing his senseless words, but she deigned not to but rather spoke down to him instead.
- "Maxillion Morto, you were quite fortunate to even become a Maximillion. I remember hearing that someone was buying those unintelligent Cranks to do horrid experiments with them, you would not say, know anything about this right?"
Surprised by the random change in topics Morto was left in slight confusion and fear from the threatening undertone in her voice, so he just nodded, unable to word a proper response.
"Right, right. The soldiers, my soldiers are busy preparing for an unwanted war and now some people are trying to use our lesser people to gain more worthless power."
Following her words, Nizael leaned in closer to the man, who was now sweating profusely, he continuously averted his eyes from scrutinizing gaze. He was scared into silence, left utterly defenseless within her presence. Taking her gaze off the man she also looked at the rest of the guests and raised her voice.
"I take off a mere few cycles to take care of my beloved granddaughter, who is the epitome of cuteness, and you all think you can do whatever it is you wish! I should throw all of you into the Western seas to be eaten by Gales, be grateful the Everion is not yet present because if he was I would have had to sort you all out in front of him."
" Just watch! Just wait! I will be sure you all get what is coming to you once things have settled down."
With her words many of those present were put into awkward positions, they would decide to cut off all connections with any shady business once they return home. Saying all she wanted to say she left the downtrodden Molto and nodded towards Lady Urnfox as she went to take back up the stairs to check up on Lulu.
...
When the TIOT came even though she was slightly surprised due to the sudden dark surroundings she didn't linger, she wanted to end this as quickly as possible, she didn't want her flame to burn out.
Following her thoughts, the two strength-enhanced boys lunged at her. Thanks to her being smaller in stature compared to them she was able to scrape by a few of their hits, seeing an opening she launched her flaming fist into one of the boy's stomachs. The said boy was forced to take a few steps back before his clothing caught fire and he started running around yelling at the top of his lungs.
Even though she was able to land a hit Karma left herself wide open as the other boy threw a right hook at her large forehead, this launched her sliding backward, she would gave gone into a coughing fit if she didn't herself from the sharp gusts of wind sent by the boy in the rear. The wind was causing a handful of scratches to appear on her, but they were also extinguishing the flames on her hand.
Unlike what the lead boy expected, the ghastly bird cries did not lessen, but instead, they increased and were raised in volume so much so, that that was all they could. The increase in volume also came with a change in appearance, the flames around her hand turned and stayed blue, while also taking the form of a bird.
The bird almost seemed to release an overwhelming presence as it continued its war cry, seeing the change only caused Karma to smile more. The fire grew out of her arm and encompassed half of the surroundings, scaring all three boys to the other half. Not fully knowing what was happening Karma tried to do something, she couldn't yet use the Words Of Enhancement, but she thought her imagination was possibly enough.
Creating many birds of fire Karma noticed how smoke had been gathering above them for a while now so she came up with the idea of causing them to faint. Though if she wanted to do this she would need to take care of the wind.
As if it had a mind of its own the firebird, shot out and separated them all. The wind user was fending himself off quite well, quite surprising since Karma was strong and had yet to Transcend, it was truly frightening. Wanting to be quick she rushed while sending more firebirds his way, he had very weak control over his wind so he had a very hard time dealing with them.
Ducking under a blast of wind she got within his guard and sent an uppercut to his chin backed by the power of her flames, knocking him to the ground, she added a few more punches to be cautious. Seeing how the other two were. now disoriented she called off her flames and went over to the both of them and kicked and stomped on them multiple times, making sure a few of them dug in their stomachs.
- "Karma can be quite the bitch huh?"
