Chapter 42: 1. I HAVE A TAIL! (welcome to season 1)
Everybody wakes up, some don't want to and I know we all feel that way, but as another day comes and another day goes, we accept life and continue for better days, but sometimes we don't and that's where the concept of fake reality and fantasy come in. We all just want the pain to ease and we want to cope with what we got,
As Dawn came rolling in and the day had passed, Ezekiel was walking down the hallway as he had woken up but got bored, and so with feeling bored he wanted to see if Levi was up, since they'd been hanging out recently.
But as he cut corners and walked down the open hallway which was connected to the center courtyard he saw fire.
But as he did, it wasn't a wildfire or anything that was way out of control He saw a dance, a dance of fire. One in which it was controlled and moving through the air in a swift but graceful motion.
And as he looked out into that courtyard he saw a wooden sword cutting through the air. With it moving and a line of fire coming out from every swing and every cut that went by.
It was no understatement to say this was a mixed combination of a sword art and flame control.
But as mesmerizing as it was, he heard,
"Dance of the 2nd sword, nimble fire"
Looking at the whole picture that wasn't Levi, or even another Natsu sorcerer who resided there. That was Hiro, the same Hiro who wasn't expected to wake up for another few hours.
Ezekiel stepped back and he decided to spy on Hiro instead of alerting Mary about him waking up.
Watching as Hiro performed an agile sword dance, or well, it was more of sword training for proficiency, he was astonished, if only he had been able to learn something like that and not pure magic, then he might of been able to kill- cough cough, NO ONE!
But other than that, he saw the sweat fall from that young man's body, and he could see all the hard work put in to perfect that sword art.
And he could even see the amount of concentration he was putting in to keep his fire up.
He could help but have been put in a state if awe by this boy.
He's seen Demon who's wielded magic before, all sorts of Demon's who have been able to use all types of magic and supernatural techniques,
But this was the first Demon sorcerer, and he expected more unrelentless destruction, but this guy was more concentrated and tamed, he was getting so interested that he was wondering if this was why Hiro had Celestial markings.
Could it have been because his will was that of the gods but his spirit lied with the Demons, or something completely different.

Going on for a few more minutes, Hiro stumbled, the fire he produced disappeared and his movment became slopy,
Falling to his hands and knees he was exhausted and panting, Ezekiel was about to pull up and do some "I've been watching you for a long time now, I'm impressed young Natsu" thingy where he pretends to fit in as a fellow Natsu clansmen and congratulate him on his hard work.
But then he heard clapping and as he took a step forward he saw a man around the age of a young adult walk over to Hiro and pat his sweaty shoulder, congratulate him instead of Ezekiel.
That coin locking fuck Stole his spotlight!
The man was a beastfolk, he was a boar and as he had a strong demeanor and a single-arm, he joked around saying that he was impressed with Hiro's skill but expected alot more from his fire.
"Thanks, Tabiru, but I just can't seem to get stronger, somethings blocking me from obtaining anymore strength on my own, it's like I have a lock on my cultivation?"
Saying that Tabiru the boar from the bright forge branch laughed, he found it funny because everyone had a lock, it was just there for a natural reasons.
"How'd you like to break that lock, Hiro"
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know about you sorcerers? But normal people have to face tributes to get stronger, it's just a way for us saying that we accept defying the natural order and join a new order in which were all no better but greater than ourselves in the faces of the Devine nature were bound to"
Looking up at Tabiru, he had a look of determination, and as he pushed himself up, he said with passion.
"Than what's next? I'm willing to do anything to ascend!"
Tabiru grinned as heard that magical sentence, and with his only hand, he hit his chest like a Ape and roared,
"Then come with me younge Natsu and we'll find out what you need to do to ascend past your natural limits!!!"
"Also nice tail?"
Looking past him, Hiro looked behind himself and he saw a wagging blackish spiked tail connected to him.
"I HAVE A TAIL! ! !"

A/N: hey there, so this is the 1st marking point to [Incubus's curse: path to incubism], aka this is the 2nd season/3rd volume which finally gets to the point of incubism.
° Long story short, volume 1&2 aka season 1 was like a pastime event.
- They were introducing the main/side characters and they were telling you the main backstory of Hiro which brought him to the point of his life where he is now,
- Because before he died and evolved, that was the ending to his journey as a [phyric sorcerer].
[Phyric] means fire + energy, it's a concept of Magic that I thought of and had created when I was playing a bunch of dnd at my school's club, and it gave me a bunch of ideas to play with.
But I just wanted to welcome you to the start of... Imma calls this season 1 and volume 1&2 are going to be season 0, but never mind that, lol.
So welcome to the start of [incubus's curse path of incubism], wow I feel like this is like some assassins creed intro or some, like back in brotherhood or black flag ya know... but way longer,
See you later, and like they say in my 4th class.
(Jaa Mata)
