Pixies could manipulate the energy around them to take control of the elements. It mattered little if the mana came from air, bricks, or a legendary grade chrystal created by one of the four ancient dragons.
Seth raised his middle finger above his head and swung it for all to see. Immediately the chrystal turned gray and a medium sized tornado formed around him.
‘More,’ Seth grunted while pulling out another chrystal. The circling wind doubled in size and the tornado reached the ground below.
“More!”
One chrystal after another appeared and went gray. The devils' skins turned orange in panic. Some of them dropped their tridents and tried to fly away.
“Stop!” yelled Eligos, but it was far too late. The mana infused tornado was so vicious no one could escape it. If not for the distance, even the city would've been wiped out, barrier and all.
“Begone evil spirits!” Seth shouted with a demonic grin.
"Ok, We'll fly off. Just stop the tornado!"
"Let me give you a lift.”
“We caan waaaaalk…!” Eligos’s words disappeared into the distance. Whether the wind killed him, propelled him into space, or into the neighboring country, Seth couldn’t care less. While flying back towards the city, all he could think of was getting a long bath and asking Alastar for a spell that would erase his memories.
“Great warrior, on behalf of all the people of Guyfast, thank you for banishing the demonic horde.” The busty soldier bowed her head in respect. She had long light blue hair neatly tied in a ponytail, and her genuine smile could melt ice.
“Gandalf, who is she?” Seth asked while focusing his eyes, mind, and soul on the female.
“Oh, that’s just a flesh bag who’s been keeping me company.”
A vein popped on the pixie’s head. He grabbed Momo by the ring and pulled out an unusually large mana chrystal.
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
“Is that for me?” the mage asked while smiling. “I did a good job, didn’t I?”
“Yes…” Mana drained from the chrystal until it turned gray. A gravity based spell formed in Seth’s hand. It was strong enough to punch a hole through a mountain. While the chrystal crumbled and turned into dust, the warrior’s palm turned into a fist.
“…Seth?” Alastar recognized the spell, but he couldn’t figure out who it was for. “Lord Seth?” seeing how the pixie was twitching with an expression he had often seen in the mirror, the mage was getting worried. “Are you…?”
“Run, you idiot!” shouted Momo.
“Heroes!” A skinny man called out to them at the same time. He was wearing a fancy blue suit and carried a sealed envelope. “The queen summons you.”
“Huh?” Seth instantly forgot about the map guy.
“Her Majesty would like to personally congratulate you for saving our capital.”
“This is the capital?” asked Seth while snapping his wrist. The compressed gravity spell flew into the distance, carried by the wind to less fortunate lands.
The butler looking man took them to the palace, a huge building in the middle of Guyfast. It didn’t have the pointy towers Seth had expected, and the maids’ outfits were sadly disappointing. But, at least the Grand Hall lived up to its name.
At the end of a long red carpet in the middle of the giant room, there were circular stairs above which two rulers sat on their thrones. One of them was an overweight man with a crooked nose who was covered in acne. The other was Seth’s ideal woman.
“My Queen,” the pixie kneeled respectfully to hide his grin. His trauma was erased from memory, now replaced with rosy cheeks, sharp ears, and the biggest set of ‘assets’ the man had ever seen.
“Who are you, warrior?” asked the king.
The room remained silent.
“Sir. pixie?” added the queen.
“I am Sir. Seth, my Goddess. Would you like to go out?”
“What!?” The king almost fell off his chair before the elven queen pulled him back.
“I am flattered, Sir. Seth."
"And, I am horny, I mean, honored."
"Who might be your friends?” The queen ignored his comment.
“This is my steed, Moses…”
“Momo,” said the talking squirrel.
“And my map guy, Gandalf.”
“Is that Alastar the soul sucker?” The king rose to his feet. “Haven’t I banned you from ever stepping foot in this court?”
“He is also one of our saviors.” The queen gave him a look. “And, one of the most evil, I mean, wisest mages of our country.”
“You are too kind, Your Majesty.” Alastar wanted to raise his head before noticing murder in Seth’s eyes.
Suddenly, the entire room shook and a thunderous boom reached their ears. Several windows broke and a squadron of guards rushed in to check the situation.
“What in the Gods’ name is going on?” asked the king.
“There’s been an explosion in the West.” The female soldier’s face appeared on a chrystal ball.
“It’s Yuki!” Seth got up while clenching his fists. Even so, he respectfully kept his gaze slightly below the queen’s eyes.
“Who’s Yuki?” she asked with a worried expression.
“The Queen of Spiders, my (current) nemesis, and the reason I am here… But, you’re definitely hotter,” he added with a wink.
