Capítulo 17: Date
"Ais, I need you to slowly channel your mana into the table… Don't chant just move your mana into the table"
Lumas slowly explained how to move mana within her body, if she practiced enough she may manage to mould her mana without a chant like Lumas but that wasn't their goal. After a few tries Ais managed to consistently channel her mana into the table, the powered Magic Catalyst sucked every bit up this continued until the power gave off a faint light green light
Seeing this he had Ais cut off her connection to the table as he immediately began carving inscriptions into the blade filling them with pinches of the powder as he went, he was using runes he was already used to making the process fly by, after a tiring 2 hours Lumas turned towards Ais "Name your blade" a tired smile adorning his face as he wiped the sweat from his brow with a rag
Ais looked at the sword, the light greenish blue of the Mithril seemed to radiate with the runes giving off the faintest light green light. Lumas was slightly upset the blade is as eye catching as it is but there isn't much he can do about it, it's not his sword so he just left it be instead of taking things too far…
"Ventus" As she spoke her eyes landed on Lumas "You sure it can't be changed afterwards" seeing Ais nod Lumas picked up the sword muttering its name "Ventus"
[Ventus (A-Rank - Elemental)
A sword forged by an apprentice smith, unknown to the smith feeling of love, care, and a will to protect was imbued into the blade… As if blessed by a Sylph a raging tempest is held with in
•Sylph's Rage: When the name of this blade is chanted while in distress the blade will be engulfed in sharp raging winds the more mana used the larger the blade
•Breath of Wind: When an attack blocked/parried a gust of wind will cushion the impact of the user
•Bond: Due to the combination of two mana's alongside the imbued feelings both 'Ventus' and 'Shadowsteel' are bonded swords… When the user of either is near death the sword will break healing its owner… If one breaks all its aspects get transferred to the other
•Durandul
•Smith's Care: This sword will never need maintenance, blood will never smear its surface, and any damage sustained will be slowly repaired with users mana (WARNING: If the blade repair is more costly than mana present chance of 'Mind Down')
•Worthless]
Ais picked up the sword and twirled it in her hand, finding the grip to her liking, the blade seemed to be perfectly balanced with the center of gravity in the middle of the hilt. Ventus seemed to weigh nearly than half of her previous blade which was made from an alloy of Emperium and Oridecon the blade was still dull as she looked up from her blade Lumas instantly began talking
"Don't worry about the weight I will be able to guarantee its sharpness, I built it to compliment your magic keeping it light so that you can quickly change the direction of the momentum in the blade…"
Lumas went on and on about why he chose to do the things he did as he sharpened the blade, Ais was quickly lost as Lumas dived further and further into the sword however she simply listened as she watched him while resting her head on her palm with a pleased smile on her face… after a while Lumas looked up and instantly went quiet, he was captivated by Ais' lounging figure her smile hadn't faded and when their eyes locked Lumas felt like his heart was going to leap from his chest, seeing the blush rise up in Lumas' face Ais' smile widened ever so slightly… she didn't know why he was blushing but Tione and Tiona made sure she knew what it meant after Lumas accidentally punched holes in her door
"Lumas, Do you like me?" Ais genuinely asked, She knew that a lot of boys/men liked her but she didn't care about them
Lumas went to speak but his words got caught in his throat and the blush ferociously spread before he could even speak. Ais spoke again "Would you come eat with me?" Lumas could only dumbly nod at her answer as many thoughts ran through his mind not even realizing he was getting dragged away by a girl with a smile so wide that it nearly split her face
By the time Lumas processed what was happening he found himself in Ais' room she was shuffling through clothes, looking down at his own soot covered clothes he reached into his item box pulling out an outfit Sebastian gave him… A white collared long sleeve with a pinstripe black vest, tapered black pants, and a pair of black leather dress shoes. Hanging an untied bow tie around his neck he turned around to find Ais standing in front of the mirror fixing the straps of her dress, the long black dress hugged her frame showcasing her willowy yet well developed body, the single slit running to the middle of her thigh revealed her marvelous slender legs and the stark white interior of the dress. As she bent over slipping on a pair of white heels Lumas gulped, Ais lightly chuckled(?) as she put her hair up into a messy bun while turning to face Lumas
His previously long hair was gone, now short and messy, his slightly feminine features have slowly developed no longer making him look like a girl at first glance, Ignoring the heat rising in her face Ais stepped forward towards Lumas and began clumsily tying his bow tie like Susan showed her, they were close enough for their noses to touch lost in each other's eyes
"*cough cough*" a series of fake coughs startled them Lumas looked over to find a proud Riveria "I expect you two to return by sundown, Lumas… take care of her" Sebastian came into the room behind Riveria and with a deep bow he spoke "Were shall I escort the Lord and missus?"
Ais looked towards Lumas then back to Sebastian resting her head on Lumas' shoulder "To the Hostess of Fertility, Sebastian would you go ahead and reserve it for the rest of the night?" Sebastian nodded with a smile on his face "Right away my lady" before seemingly vanishing from existence his figure breaking down into darkness
Riveria was shocked, not once has she seen Sebastian use Magic, she didn't even know his stats she knew he was strong only because he was able to stop Ais from entering her office before… Unconsciously her thoughts drifted towards how strong he and Susan truly were… Seeing Ais locking arms with Lumas cleared her thought, seeing Ais grow up brought her unimaginable happiness she never thought she'd see the day when she pursued a boy, Ais' thoughts were always on gaining strength in hopes of returning to her mother something Riveria doesn't even know all the details to leaving her thoughts for later she simply watched as their backs grew smaller as they disappeared into the distance with Susan a step behind
Turning around Riveria went to inform Finn not to allow Loki out of the manor, she could only imagine the chaos she bring down on Lumas if she found out he scored a date with 'Her' Aisu…
=========================================
Sebastian's form materialized from the darkness in front of the Hostess of Fertility, reaching into his 'Item Box' he pulled out a large hide bag and walked into the tavern with confidence oozing from him everyone's eyes turned towards him as he walked through the doors
"I'd like to speak to the owner" Sebastian's deep voice rung out through the tavern and a small cat-kin with brown hair disappeared into the back, after a minute or so a large women came out the back
"What's it you need?" Sebastian took out 50000 Valis from the bag and placed it on the counter "I'd like to reserve this tavern for the night"
The women laughed "You're gonna need more than this, I still got paying customers ordering-" She was cut off as Sebastian frowned before dumping the bag onto the counter revealing nearly 200k Valis "My lord's missus asked me to place the reservation… I won't fail…" a heavy aura expanded from Sebastian causing the air to shake
The women stared at Sebastian unmoving figure for a while before sighing "Alright everyone out, Those who haven't paid get your asses up here and pay" a round of murmurs filled the tavern some cursing Sebastian and his lord while others were curious, Sebastian paid them no mind if they try to hurt his lord or his missus well… Sebastian looked up at the woman and have a curt nod "Thanks, My lord will be here shortly" finished with his work he left to find Lumas and Ais in hopes of being able to escort them before having to return to the Manor
As Lumas and Ais walked down the street earning looks from everyone some calling out to the sword Princess only to see the man she was resting her head on some of the men went to approach only to be cut off by Susan, some yelled at Lumas for taking 'their' Sword Princess… but for some reason the duo couldn't hear a word they said seemingly in their own world it didn't take long for Sebastian to find his spot a step behind Lumas helping Susan keep people an arm length away from the two love birds
Rumors quickly spread about the two, Painting Lumas as a rich lord from a far away land that bought his way into the girls heart, No one knew Lumas' name nor face as whenever he left the Loki Manor Sebastian had cleared his normal path without him knowing, Lumas never even questioned the lack of people on his path and those that were left had their eyes focused on a certain grey haired beauty dressed as a maid… Those that recognized the Maid and Butler couldn't connect them to Loki, the only ones to at could were some of the Higher Ranked Loki Familia members or Hephaestus and Tsubaki when ever they weren't around Lumas or helping Loki they seemed to disappear
As Sebastian opened the door for Ais and Lumas, Lumas helped Ais up the step into the Tavern and quickly followed, as they entered they found the majority of the room cleared with a singular table in the middle of the room. Susan quickly approached the table pulling out a candle from nowhere quickly lighting it as she muttered under her breath
The light in the room dimmed surprising the girls behind the counter, Sebas pulled out the chair for Lumas while Susan did the same for Ais as they sat down an elf with light green hair and eyes to match approached with a notepad in her hands
"Hello Ais, Who might this be?" Ais looked up at the elf "Hello Ryuu, meet Lumas" Lumas stood up and surprised the elf by doing an elven greeting (A/N: that's all you get assume Riveria taught him or something, I can only pull so much bullshit from my thin air...)
"What will you two be ordering today?" Lumas was slighty nervous because… well he was broke… just as that thought crossed his mind he felt a weight in his vest pocket as Sebastian tapped his shoulder, Letting a smile come to his face Lumas nodded towards Ais letting her order first "Steak, medium rare with a side of sautéed mushrooms and a baked potato"
Ryuu rapidly wrote down the order as she turned towards Lumas "I'll take the same as her, Except would you mind adding a side of pasta?"
Ryuu quickly jotted something down "What about something to drink, However I will have exclude anything with an alcohol content can't have you taking advantage of Ais…" Lumas ignored the venom in her voice she was obviously misreading him "A water would be fine" Ais asked for a glass of juice and Ryuu retreated to the back
"My lord, Susan and I will be waiting outside if you need anything simply call for one of us" Lumas gave Sebastian a nod before returning his attention to Ais
The sun slowly set as Ais and Lumas enjoyed their dinner date, outside Susan turned toward Sebastian "Why did you use your power… You exclusively told me that we would hide our strengths until Lumas is strong enough to fend for himself"
Sebastian turned to Susan "Times have changed Susan, the definition of strength isn't what it once was… The strongest in Oriaro is weak half of the butlers in Freycliff could wipe the floor with him, Dragons and other powerful beasts don't roam the surface like they used to… Alchemy has been lost in time alongside enchanting and the Magic we are used to, the people of this age are too dependent on their gods and the blessings they receive…"
"Have you checked your status recently… Ever since Lumas leveled up I felt a change, He may not be able to bestow Falna but the artifact inside him is… I've reached Level 10 and I can't even imagine what yours would look like… It seems the ritual did more then we initially thought…"
Susan went silent as the surroundings broke like glass allowing the noises of the city to reach their ears "When we return I want you to check my status…"
Sebastian only nodded as he closed his eyes, patiently waiting for his lord
(A/N: I have no plans to make Lumas a Familia, The only reason Susan and Sebastian have a 'blessing' is because their tied to his existence blah blah blah… It's a whole bunch of bullshit…Last chap for a few days maybe idk you may get one tomorrow don't expect it though...)
