Hello guys!! Dont have Much to say to you, But Keep up the positive comments, its what gives me my drive. Like i said in my last chapters, Criticism is welcomed!! Here you go :D
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What i saw shocked me, to say the least. Standing where a fair skinned, golden haired man should have been looked like a creature with sinister beauty. My skin, which was originally a light brown color, was now a Blueish grey. My eyes, which were previously an ocean blue color-which many women said were the most attractive thing about me- second to my body of course- Had turned into spiral eyes, but instead of black and white it was black and purple. In my opinion these eyes looked like true eyes of insanity. My "Marble" body, had also changed. My Left torso had a weird tattoo over it, and looked like tribal markings. My teeth had turned black, and also changed into triangular shaped points. My fingernails were also black, and looked like claws. My sole on both of my feet were different. They were harder, and the claws that lined each of my toes looked like they were able to cut through anything. Weird how they looked stronger than my Hand claws. My previously normal human ears had changed in a short version of elf ears. I never noticed it since i was too absorbed in talking and learning about chaos,but my previous 6'3 height was now changed to 6'8, as i had grown over 5 inches. After finishing examining my body about 5 minutes later, i asked Khali why i had changed.
"My guess is that since your body absorbed the souls and power of hundreds of demons after draining the ravine water, your body, which had no way of releasing holy energy stored in you, it decided to fuse them powers together, as it unconsciously saw a change to survive. And since your cells were changed at a molecular level, I'm guessing your whole body is different as well."
I pondered for a bit, wondering at all the possible changes that could have occurred when she suddenly says " Well, I've been in the mortal plane too long, and gods are bound to notice my presence. Goodbye!!" and like she was never there in the first place, poofs out of existence.
"Wait!!" i shout, but it was too late. "At least get me out of here"i mutter...
I look up at the 60 foot walls that surround me like a canyon. "This should be fun" i say under my breath. I decide to get a running start to get to a ridge that was about 10 feet up. I wasn't sure if i could make it or not, but i decided to give it my all and try it. Biggest-Mistake-Ever!! You see, the second i put all my energy into my legs and ran toward's the wall, i was already in front of it. Before i could even begin to register what was happening, i smack straight into the wall and landed flat on my ass with the air knocked out of me. "Ugggggh" i groan.. Not fun at all. I suppose i deserved that. I don't really know the limitations of this body. I decided to stretch out, and do some simple exercise's to familiarize myself with this body. Why wasn't i using teleportation, you ask? Simple. Even if my Mana Well Is now extremely large, due to that fact that my Chaos Energy doesn't "recharge" by itself, it would be a waste to do that when i could learn the strengths of my body and save Chaos energy at the same time. (AN: Chaos Energy will now be written as "CE" :AN) So after doing some stretching i began to jump. Small, light bounces at first, but Gradually higher and higher, until i was jumping easily 35 feet in the air. I was amazed beyond imagination. At most, before my change, i could probably jump 7-10 feet. But now i can easily triple that. I stop jumping and begin to do some light punches and kicks. I once again start slowly, and gain speed until even my eyes cant see my own punches. "THIS IS AMAZING!!" i shout out to the sky. With this body and my power i might...no i WILL kill them all. If anyone would have been able to see my eyes, they would have seen the dark flames of insanity burning brightly in my psychotic eyes.
After Climbing out of ravine, there looked to be a 20 foot gap from here to the platform. I jumped the gap in one go, and rolled during the jump. I looked down to see a massive patch of dried blood. The same spot where the love of my life and my best friends cut my limbs of one by one, and cruelly tortured me before throwing me over the ravine. I felt rage cloud my mind, and before i knew what i was doing i used my new sharp nails to cut a line straight down my arm. "I SWEAR, ON THE RIVER OF SINS ITSELF, I WILL WITH MY WHOLE BEING TAKE REVENGE ON THE GODS AND MANKIND THAT BETRAYED ME." Dramatic Thunder* I did it. even i was shocked at what i just did. The river of sins is a place where all the evil souls go and making a promise using its name activates an ancient unknown magic, which unless the promise is completed, you soul will stay in the river of sins for all eternity. As i stared at my old blood stain, i noticed something odd. My old blood was a stain, not a puddle.I was only down their for like 2 hours at most, so why is my blood already dry? That blood looks at least 100 years old.
I decided to ignore it and walked past it, going through the massive mountain that was the demon lords "Castle"(AN:Since it is built into the mountain, i hesitate to say Castle :AN). I explored around the place, not having an opportunity to do that since before i was fighting for my life. "The demon lords castle is really empty" i though to myself, noticing the complete lack of objects in the whole area. I walked for about an hour, Nostalgia, rage, sadness, confusion and more clouding my mind. I finally arrived at the entrance of the castle, which was locked behind Giant wooden doors that had two pieces of wood over them, parallel to each other. "This is it" i thought, time to go and take my revenge. I remove the door's locks, and open the door to get my first breath of fresh air. Hundreds of scents hit my nose at once, making me backpedal back into the castle. "Wow....i thought just my body had changed. Apparently my senses had too, else there is no way i could have taken that many smells in at once." When i said first breath of fresh air, i should probably rephrase that. The demon lord's "Castle" was surrounded by tall, razor sharp weeds, which have given even me more than a few cuts. I looked around, noticing the not so surprising complete lack of demons. I looked northward, as i knew that was were the main continent SvaBstra was. I looked back at the castle, feeling mixed emotions about it. I briefly considered destroying it, but since that would waste CE i would rather not do it.
I was using the teleport spell 2 times every day, and ran the rest of the way. During the times i was running, which i have been for 3 days, feeding of the land, berries and anything else i can find in this god forsaken place, I have thought up Thousands of things i will do to my wife and best friends. Torture, humiliation, punishment, nothing went by me. And i loved every moment of it. Funny what insanity can do to a man . It surprisingly took up an extremely small amount of Mana to teleport. Well, i suppose to a normal mage it would take up an overly decent amount of Mana, but to me it barely took any. The capital was about 4 leagues away, which, even though i had a huge amount of mana to spare. was a long distance away. I decided to try a summoning spell. I had to think about the way to control my Mana. Let me clarify on why it is hard to control CE. Mana wells are like a Circle with 2 cylinders on either side of it. One side is used to collect Mana from the environment(Nature) and the other is used to change the element of the mana to whatever suits your desires. In order to use Light and Dark magic, you have to develop another link in your well, which only absorbs that element. Summoning magic is different. In order to use this magic, you have to develop another new well which has a connection to the spiritual plane. Well CE completely ignores that logic and only leaves one massive well that can only control itself. So i basically have to toss away everything i have learned and start at the beginning. I recall my memories and gather my magic, and slowly push it out to the side, trying to make a new well which connects to the Chaos plane. Just from making the well alone i used 1/5 of my Mana. "Not good" i think. "This wasted more magic then i thought. Slowly but surely my corrupt magic makes a new well. "Time for the hard part" i think. Now that I have made the well, i need to use even more Mana to connect to the Chaos plane. I Slowly Pour magic into the connection and tentatively reach into the chaos plane. I can't even describe to you the horrors that the spirits tried to imprint in my brain when i connected to the realm. But i just had my heart and soul crushed, my very mind broken into insanity. These images were nothing to me. The longer i dived, the stronger the resistance of the spirits got. Fun fact, out of all the races in the world, the only known race to actually make a contract with the king/queen of their elemental plane of choice were the elves, as they were born with the spirit well. I was going to attempt to do the impossible and make a contract with the king/queen of this realm. If i had to label the Chaos plane in layers, i would probably say that I'm at 3/5, and to tell the truth i was at my limit. The images they were showing me were terrifying to even my brain, and thats saying something. I gave one last giant push and before i passed out i reached my spiritual hand out and grabbed a spirit and then activated my magic, which forcibly binds whatever I'm touching to my soul then ended my magic.

After waking up from passing out at after ending my magic, i checked my CE. My energy was full, no, it was even larger than last time!! "SUCCESS!!" i shout, happy that i bound the spirit to my soul. When you bind a spirit to your soul, you take their Mana Well into your own body, which is like another well you are able to draw out of. I gather my energy and activate my summoning spell. The Creature i see before me is beautiful, in a twisted sort of way. The spirit that i bound was in the shape of a horse. It's skin was black with purple lines going across it, each line pulsing as if they were alive. It's eyes were a glowing purple, but that's not what stood out. It had 8 muscular legs, and 2 tails. I looked at the beast in wonder. "Beautiful" i mutter, and it's ears prick up. It looks at me as if to say " Of course I'm Beautiful" and I smirk at my own thought. In the past, legends said that spirit's were able to form conscious thoughts, but only spirit kings and queens could do it. "Guess that means i didn't get the king" i think, a little depressed. As if responding to my thoughts, it nudges me and neighs. "I'm more than enough for you" it seems to say. I laugh a little at that. I stroke its head and begin to think of a name. After about 10 minutes of thinking, i found the perfect name. "Well Horse, i have decided to call Sleipnir (AN:I can already tell this is going to be a bitch to remember:AN) I decided to call HER that after looking for the missing junk. She seems to like it after snorting and bobbing her head when i called her that. I laugh and say "Well Sleipnir, i suppose i should tell you my name." She looks at me expectantly, as if telling me to hurry up. "Well Sleipnir, i am known by many names. The public simply knows me as Hero, But my friends know me as Elroy. Elroy Lanston. But that was in the past. I shall now be known as... Gage. " She looks at me, then snorts, then turns around and starts to munch on grass. I jump on Sleipnir's back, and i nudge her towards the north. Being a paladin, i had plenty of training on horses. I start slow, as to get use to being on a horse with 8 legs. After doing simple movements to get use to her, i put her into a slow jog, then trot, and we go faster and faster until we are running. And boy are we running. The surroundings are a blur as Sleipnir's powerful legs bring us past the land. In under an hour we are already close to the water. I Pull on her mane as we get closer, but she doesn't stop. I pull again, harder, and she Neighs, as if to say "Trust Me." I know I'm most likely talking to myself, but i feel as if that's what she is really saying. As we are right next to the water i close my eyes, thinking that she will fall over it, but then i notice her Mana goes towards her feet and then she starts running even faster. Right when her front legs connect with the water, there is a loud splash and i open my eyes to see her running on water. "WOOHOO" i shout, elated that my horse can run on water. After about 2 hours of nonstop running, land begins to come into view. 15 minuets later, we step out of the water and into the land. I let Sleipnir rest and get some food and water. 10 Minuets later I'm back on Sleipnir and we are speeding towards the land. An hour or so more a small village comes into my sight. I Urge Sleipnir to go around the outside, as it would be suspicious seeing someone come from the direction of the demon continent. Now that i think about it... How am i going to explain myself? No matter how you look at it, I'm some weird variation of a demon. Just when i was starting to get worried, out of Nowhere a Box falls from the sky. Curious, open it up and there is a book with a note attached. The note reads - GIFT FROM KHALI- i smirk, then look at the title of the book -ILLUSION MAGIC FOR IDIOTS- "This bitch" i mutter. But this seriously helps me. After touching the book and experiencing 5 minuets of pain, I can now cast a basic spell that makes me look like an elf. I chose to change myself into an elf because it would use up the least amount of CE. All i needed to do was Change my skin to a pale color, fix the teeth and change my hair and eyes. After doing this, i take a wide loop around the village, and then after un-summoning Sleipnir, i begin to walk towards the village.

Hi again!!! I hope you liked my chapter. I've been trying to make them longer, because as a FanFic reader myself i prefer to have a bunch of shit to read with less chapters rather then a lot of chapters with almost no length in them. Anyways, if you have any questions just put them in the review and ill try to answer them in the next chapter :D And the next chapter will be good and long with lots of violence in it! Goodbye
