Chapter 6 – A Familiar Helper

We’ve reached finally, you should lay her down Storm.

Yeah, I know I know. What do you reckon she meant by I have black hair?

Maybe it was just her hallucinating or something it seemed like she had a lot of her mana absorbed by that spear I could be because of that.

I guess oh also one more thing umm… why are my legs going back to their previous form.

That is because MIMIC has a time limit and it seems yours is coming to an end.

Oh, I see… so YOU COULD’NT HAVE MENTIONED THIS ANY SOONER, WHAT IF I CHANGED BACK TO MY MONSTER FORM IN THE CITY. Do you know how bad of a situation that would have been?

(Uh, I can’t open my eyes what is all this shouting. No, more importantly, where exactly am I the last thing I remember is being at the palace and then getting executed could this be… no I should first open my eyes then I can think of everything else. “Uh grrr arghhh” AHH a monster. I can’t move this is it I am done forth.)

Hey seems you’re finally awake Aluvia do you need something.

(Wait how does it know my name)

How did you know my name is Aluvia?

Well, I know it's going to sound a little bit weird but my name is Storm remember I am the one who you had the chat with this is my true form I am a Dark Cumulus monster.

You are a monster but how when I saw you you were a human.

That was my MIMIC skill its timer ran out and now it is on cooldown that is why I am in this form.

Then tell me did you save me from getting executed.

*nods head*

I see so it was not a dream I really was going to get killed now I can never save the lives of the innocent people of Estelle.

Well, there is a way but, it requires us to overthrow the current King we can talk about it in detail later for now you should get some rest.

Okay, I still am feeling a bit all over the place.

You sensed that right, Storm.

Yeah, I can sense it they already tracked us. At least 10 people are heading this way, but with the 10 seems like…

There are monsters. We should erase our presence and set traps.

Eh, we can just dive head in and take them out before they get any closer.

NO, that is absolutely reckless and a great way to go get killed.

*running**jumps**rustle*

(What was that)

Huuu well got out of there just in time. How did they get here so quick and are those minotaurs with them?

I was against this but now I am really against this after seeing those minotaurs.

Stolen story; please report.

You worry too much Myu. Yoohoo Mr. Soldiers do you need something.

Identify yourself right now whoever you are.

I’ll pass on that but I will give you a showcase of my strength ABSORB.

Uhh *drops* what did you do to him.

Oh, I just absorbed all of his mana now he is useless he can’t move even if he gave it everything he has.

Now let’s continue shall we *smirks*.

You, minotaur’s protect us… what are you doing do you want your family to die.

Seems like you are being forced to do this so I’ll spare your life's move.

We can’t do that if you want to harm the people behind us you will need to go through us first.

Very well then, I will try not to hurt you. *schwing*

(what the... they are quick really quick this might just get interesting. Let’s see in this form my magic power is superior and my physical power is zero unless I use armament or condense my shape which would not be useful since it seems like these minotaurs have a good defense so magic would be my best option so how do I do this what type of magic do I want to use, using ABSORB would make my job easier but these minotaurs have a virtually non-existent amount of mana which means sucking their mana would not be enough to defeat them so what should I d…)

Storm immediately jumped back after he felt the presence of another.

There is another one if I stood there for a little longer, I would be done for.

He has figured me out no point in hiding now. Haah *swing*

(Behind me but if I turn, I will be done in by the two in front this situation could not get any worse.)

Aooo *bite**crack*

My sword you bit it in half.

HEAVY ARMAMENT *punch**punch*

Fear, not great master Storm for I am here.

Who are you… wait you’re the weird white wolf that was getting bullied. What are you doing here?

Worry not master I am here to help you surround them now Aooo *RUMBLE*

My… seems like you became the leader of the pack after that incident.

(We need to get out of here our chance of winning here is almost none with so many wolves surrounding us.)

EVERYONE RETREAT NOW!!

Master should we go after them.

No, leave them be I have some other things to take care of and drop the master.

Okay, sir Storm.

(From master to sir she seems like she has gotten a lot stronger since last time, she seems to have become the leader of a pretty fearsome looking pack of wolves as well.)

I thank you for helping me. I would have had a hard time fending them all off as I am now, I would like to repay you for stepping in some time in the future but right now I have some matters to attend to.

Sir, please wait let me come along with you.

Umm, how would coming with me benefit you though?

Please just let me come with you and help you in your endeavors.

Fine if that is what you want to do come with me.

***

*rustle*

WHO’S THERE.

Hey, you’re awake, now sit yourself down we have a lot to talk about also I have a guest!!

What guests are you talking about?

This is the guest she is a weird white wolf and outside is her pack of dark wolves.

(Wait that’s not any weird white wolf she… is a descendant of one of the very rare wolf families that did not convert to the fallen because of the incident.)

I think calling her a weird white wolf is a bit rude.

Well then to make it less rude how about we give a very descriptive introduction of ourselves.

Well… my name is Aluvia and I am a human mage from the city of Estelle.

And my name is Kiria and I am a light wolf and from what I know I am one of the very few of my species that are alive.

As for me, I believe both of you know me but here it goes anyway. My name is Storm I am a dark cumulus monster who has the ability to change my form to human *Snaps* MIMIC this is my human form but since mimic has a timer on it, I need to save time to be able to use it *Snaps*.

I have a question for Kiria how can I understand what you are saying I mean I can only hear howling from outside but I can understand you just fine.

I am not sure why I can talk to and understand humans but it is an ability I have had for quite a few years now.

I see…

Now that all this introduction stuff has come to an end I want to talk about the Kingdom of Balance and how we will take over the Capital City of Estelle. This is the last chance you have to back out of this Kiria.

As I said before sir, I want to help you in your endeavors so that I can repay you for helping me that day.

(I am the one who should be indebted to her for helping me out today… but she looks determined enough… eh guess it doesn’t matter anyway.)

Well then let me tell you about my plan on how we are going to take Estelle from Lionel Loklowe.
