Capítulo 158: Arcane [#6]
Claggor, with Mylo's help, managed to tear through the vines and roots surrounding Ekko and Powder, freeing them from whatever prison they were in- "What are you guys doing!?" Ekko shouted as he turned to see Poison holding his head, growls escapig his mouth as his jaw snapped back up from its low hanging position, he turned around to look as saw Mushroom behind the duo of boys with its arms raised- "Wait!" Powder shouted, getting in front of the large golem before it could strike down! Mushroom surprisingly stopped before they could actually hurt her, pulling back their long arm made of scrap metal and stone with vines making connecting their limbs as Powder said: "We're fine Mushroom! It's okay- See, they're friends and this is a misunderstandi-"
"You... Should..." Poison grasped his head tightly, his claws sinking into his skin and muscle as he roared: "𝙍𝙐𝙉!" The echoing roar made everything break loose as Poison used [Fear Howl]:
[Fear Howl: Around you, everyone (That is weaker than you) will cower and run away in fear after hearig your howl!
Decreases their movement speed by 10%
While Frightened they cannot attack you, and will run away from you.]
And that's exactly what happened- every single person there froze before an unbelievable amount of fear burst out of their hearts into their brains: They needed to run. And that's what they did, Claggor got Ekko and Powder in both arms as his adrenaline kicked in, even Mylo was picked up by him while he ran- Vi? Vi stood staring at him for a moment and tried to act though, but he could see her hands clenching and shaking as she smelled of fear and that smell was... Inviting- No! No, he doesn't want to hurt anyone.
But there was this little voice in the back of his mind, this gruff yet soft spoken and enticingly sweet voice that whispered: "ₙₒ, 𝐲ₒᵤ ₛₕₒᵤₗ𝐝 𝐜ₕₐₛₑ ₜₕₑₘ." and he knew that he shouldn't- he really shouldn't, they're his friends, right? "ₜₕₑ𝐲 ᵢₙᵥₐ𝐝ₑ𝐝 ₒᵤᵣ ₜₑᵣᵣᵢₜₒᵣ𝐲, ₙₒ𝐰 𝐰ₑ 𝐜ₕₐₛₑ ₜₕₑₘ." Well, the voice is telling the truth, they invaded his territory withour gettig invited, and he should be protective of his territory- but they're leaving it already, he doesn't need to chase them, right? They're not bad people, he doesn't need to worry about them! "ₐᵣₑ 𝐲ₒᵤ ₛᵤᵣₑ~¿?" Yes, yeah, he is surely sure of how sure he is right now. He doesn't need to chase his friends. He doesn't- "ₒₜ ₜₙₐʍ ᵤₒʎ ₜᵤq"
Yeah.
Yeah he does want to chase them.
"Nonono- Shut up." He sank his claws onto his arms until he drew blood, sure that the pain would help him keep control, but his body didn't obey him, almost as if he was being possessed by this deep, deep urge to run after them- His body moved forward, and he pulled back, with vines and roots pulling his body alongside him as his taste for blood grew stronger and stronger in this day. He kept fighting, and fighting, and fighting against his own nature before he grew too tired and passed out- Waking up hours later, buried deep within the roots and vines and being hugged by Mushroom, the giant golem had chunks of stone and metal missing from it, including the left arm that he must've bitten or clawed away.
He felt so guilty.
"I'm sorry Mushroom." He whispered as his claws carressed the stone of the only arm the golem now had- There was a rumbling of energy from the cracked main heart of the golem, making these weird noises that thanks to his connection to Mushroom, he easily understood it in emotions and letters: "Don't worry huh?" Reassurance and a happiness emanated from the golem, making Poison feel even more guilty of what he did in his state of berserk, which was something he had to take care of before it gets even worse than it already is- He needs to increase his willpower, by training, leveling up, and adding bonus status points.
It's essential.
He spent the rest of the day working on how to heal his golem friend while also experimentig with his [Magicraft] skill he received- it worked really like this: He could make magic items with almost anything, he played around with it and learned that he could make some basic magic items infused with his nature magic, not only because the level of this skill was small but also because that's the only magic he has for now, and even afer making several [Leaf Blowers] the skill didn't level up yet so he couldn't add stronger magical effects. What are [Leaf Blowers]?
Well! They are these little fans made of leaves and a stick, they spin in a weak speed and create this weak breeze that can refresh someone in the heat of summer, he made them in hopes Powder and Ekko could maybe forgive him? I mean, it wasn't his fault really, but he kinda wanted to tear their intestines inside out and bathe in their blood so... Sorry? He also made sure to pack these little gifts for them with some things he stole from Piltover that he was going to give them, since they were the only friends he has and- "ₜₕₑ𝐲 ₛₘₑₗₗ 𝐝ₑₗᵢ𝐜ᵢₒᵤₛ 𝐰ₕₑₙ ₐ𝐟ᵣₐᵢ𝐝..." That too- Wait, no! No, they're friends, not food! Remember Finding Nemo, fish are friend, not food! "𝐁ᵤ𝐳𝐳ₖᵢₗₗ." Like, shut the fuck up- you're only a voice inside my head that is the psychological representation of my repressed urges and the indication that I'm going insane! Ignoring the growling inside his mind and the notification in front of him, he finished packing the little gift, tying a little green bow- "Acid?" He froze- he didn't kill Acid, right? "Acid, boy? Where are you?"
He searched around and sniffed- he did not smell Acid, however, he didn't smell blood (Only his blood) either, so it meant that Acid wasn't here for him to hurt, which is good! He sighed, now having an extra reason to go the Last Drop and get his Poro back and apologize (maybe). "ᵢ ⱼᵤₛₜ 𝐰ₐₙₙₐ ₑₐₜ ₛₒₘₑₜₕᵢₙ'..."
"You shut up. I'm tired of your voice." Poison was really going insane.
-Scene Cut-
Awkwardly standing before Vander, the small wolf boy tapped his feet on the ground as the older man looked at him and then back at the other children in the room: "So, why you called me down here?" Vander asked as he rested right in the chair right between the children, in one side were Ekko, Powder, Vi, Mylo, and Claggor together, while on the other was that weird wolf kid named Poison, wearing his cloack with holes on top to let his ears hang free: "Because-" Vi pointed at Poison: "He's a danger to my sister and Ekko!" There was a whine that escaped Poison before he growled, his eyes flashing a bright green before he said, his voice as raspy as always: "Well, excuse me Miss Punch First and trigger a fucking territorial Chimera!" He barred his teeth as the claws of his feet sank into the wood beneath, he audibly sighed before pulling out two boxes from behind him from who knows where before turning to Powder and Ekko: "Look... I'm sorry for yesterday, it's just that a crazy bitch-" Vi growled, almost like she was imitating the wolf boy, Vander only shaked his head while narrowing his eyes at Poison: "Punched me while i was trying to protect my home and my friends from a possible threat-" Once again, the claws of his feet started clicking on the wooden floor, three taps before it started again.
"I'm just trying to apologize for scaring you." He turned to look away while showing the surprisingly neatly arranged, it had a green bow tying a not so dirty brown box, Powder and Ekko just turned to look at Vander, who sighed before nodding and walked towards Poison, who tried to act like he wasn't relieved- However his tail betrayed his internal thoughts as it wagged lightly, moving from left to right without lifting from the ground at all.
It was weirdly adorable.
"Okay. It's fine, really, it wasn't your fault for- y'know, trying to protect us." Ekko patted his shoulder as he took one of the boxers, they were the same gifts after all, Powder however just looked at him and surprised him by pulling him into a hug- He tensed before reluctantly hugging her back, reluctantly i say as his tail was going crazy. A classic Tsundere it seems! "Just... Thanks." she shyly said before taking the box, Poison's eyes darted to the little white thing that ran into the room, jumping into his arms: "Acid!" This time, he didn't hold himself back at all, his tail was slapping against his legs from how fast it was wagging, his tongue was licking the white fluffy Poro as he whined in happiness- He was like a happy puppy who just saw his owner come back from a hard day at work. "You're here!" He hugged the little thing carefully not to crush his little body, even though a part of him wanted that to happen, turned around and left before Powder and Ekko opened their gifts.
Why?
Because Vander would know he took these things from Piltover, and would try to scold him, so it's better if he leaves now! There's also a not j each box with a message to Vander too. He surprise in the eyes of both little genius Inventors when they saw the functioning items they needed in their endeavors, alongside some complex and complete little mechanical butterflies of clockworks and light metals, with some extra chemtech based tubes, three tubes, each with different things and a small [Leaf Blower] with a note that said: [This little thing is my make- Surprise, it's magical!] And sure enough, it moved by magic, and in each box was the little note that said [For Vander, in case he tries to take this from you], which made the old man snort before he read- he knew this was from Piltover.
[Yeah, these things i stole from the Chembarons of the Undercity and from Piltover, it's been a week ever since i stole it, so they don't care about little things like these! Don't try to stop me from stealing, I'll steal again, with Acid by my side because he's an adorable assistant.
P.S: Don't be a buzzkill, Vander, let them have this.]
With a heavy sigh, he promised himself toscold him later.

There's a problem.
His new Unique Skill, that he ended up developing:
[Chimera: Due to being injected with the DNA of various monsters, Chemtech, and Shimmer, your body is rapidly being destroyed inside- however, it adapted and regenerated, becoming a better combination of all of them. Due to the unbalance between your body, your mind is also being affected, but it also adapted and overcame it's own deficiencies, developing into something better and new.
A True Chimera.
Now, it talks to you, and shall help you in your time of need.
Effects: Your mind is protected against mind dwellers, mental manipulators, and mind readers. Memories, throughts, and emotions are protected by yor inner beast. It is also a part of you, so it doesn't want ro hurt you, but wants to protect you.
It may also talk to you.
And take a liking to people- It may also choose a... mate.]
The last part of this skill was the problem.
The Chimera inside his head wanted a Mate.
