Begin Academy Arc
Well it took nearly a week, but we finally made it to the Academy city.
During the entire trip i got to know more about Sid and how hes related to Lilith.
Apparently about 230 years ago, before her father met her mother, and before the UFE was formed, Sid had been one of the 8 Bandit Kings.
Back when i was going through my training with the others, they also had me read up on their worlds history.
Believe it or not but this world has the same amount of months, days, and seasons as my reality. The year however is about 3328. They never named their months either so their date system would be like 'the first of the eighth month in 3328.'
Anyway for about 80 years the Bandit Kings were one of the most fierce and brutal groups of people this world had known. They were among the Strongest of even the Kingdom of the Gods.
Thats right, 4 of the 8 Bandit kings ruled in the Kingdom of the Gods. You fucked with them, and your ass was grass.(Finally got to put that saying in. Always found it funny)
Anyway Sid was the Strongest Bandit King in the Eternian continent.
Liliths father however had saved his life.
Turns out that the reason why there are no more Bandit Kings is due to a war between the 8 of them.
The war started out because one of the Kings on the Gods Continent wanted to rule all the other bandit factions. Very obviously this didnt work out so well.
Sid was the King Of The Sky. He ran an air naval force so strong that no airship in the sky belonged to an independent party. Either you payed homage or your thrown off your own ship onto the ground below.
Turns out that one of those independent parties wasnt so independent.
The Gods Continent Bandit King known as Maul, real name Raul, had set up an ambush inside Sids Airspace.
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
When Sids ship had been shot down, Liliths father had been watching. He saved Sid from the wreckage and then used a massive spell to take down Mauls ship.
Once the Flagship fell, the other pirate ships turned on each other.
I asked Sid what happened to Mauls body, but he just replied,
Sid:"There twas no body to find lad. Either Maul escaped or Therion obliterated him."
Damn i never knew Therion was that Strong.
Anyway now that we are in Academy Airspace, we will need to land at the docking tower.
Crewman:"Cap'n the idjits dont wanna let us dock. They be sayin sumtin about it being reserved for royalty and not common thugs."
They are gonna get an earful thats for sure.
Sid:"What? How dare they, i am an Admiral of the Eternian Navy, NOT SOME THUG!!"
Dorian:"Im sure they just fucked somthing up in their papers. Probably a misunderstanding."
Sid:"Better be, otherwise im gonna stick my sword up the Dock Masters ass." This will be entertaining.
We then fly up higher then the docks and Sid walks to the edge of the ship.
Oh is he gonna-
He jumped.
Eyy superhero landing, i heard its bad on the knees.
Sid performs a Superhero Landing on the dock and then starts limping towards a man who is in embroidered fineries.
Dorian:"THE LIMP DOESNT HELP THE INTIMIDATION FACTOR SID!!" I yell knowing that wont help his intimidation as well. Though his whole crimson skinned horned demon thing does.
I never described Sid did i?
Well Sid looks like your typical crimson battle scarred demon. He has white eys that makes it look like hes blind, and a scar on his upper lip. One of his horns is broken while the other curves up and back over his chest length white hair. Been trying to get Lilith to call him grampa Sid instead of uncle. Hes one of those age sensitive guys. Especially when it comes to how young women like Lilith call him. I remember we stopped in another city and he tried hitting on an 20 year old human and she said she didnt need a sugar daddy that looks like hes about to keel over from a heart attack.
That was the first time ive seen a demon in the Orz position. Was funny as fuck.
Me Lilith, Dag, and Thia all go to the edge of the starboard side and jump. At least i think its starboard, which side is starboard again? Left or Right? I'm pretty sure it's the right side.
Anyway, we jump.
I can feel the others start gathering mana to disperse the shock and start doing the same except with all three of my energies. Then i increase my weight by pushing down with the Force, causing a boom to wring out as im mid air. Then i manifest my energies into a visible spectrum.
And~ superhero landing. Everyone is looking at me with strange faces. I just choose to say,
Dorian:"That, Ladies and Gentlemen, is how you make an entrance." Then i stop manifesting the energies on a visible spectrum.
You have learned, Tri-energy synergy. Any time you use three different energies in tandem with each other, the energy cost for using related skills decreases by 5 percent. Every stage is an extra 5 percent. Currently at Novice Stage.
Cool. Why the fuck didn't I try that before?
