บท 23: Entering Barithea
It has been months since the 'Gate Of Kamish' happened; people called it that since they named the biggest Dragon Kamish that came out of the gate, is what they say. And due to this short-termed crisis, the birth of a new Hunter's Rank happened.
The National Rank for Hunters' was born, given to those who contributed the most when that day happened. Go Gun-Hee, Thomas Andre, Christopher Reed, Sidharth Bachchan, Jonas, and Kara White got awarded the new rank.
The people even gave them their titles that go along with their awakened powers. Those who got named are Thomas the Goliath, Veteran Gun-Hee, Zhigang the Hero of China, and more.
However, the most popular one was Kara White, for her beauty and prowess. She was titled 'Princess of Magic' mainly because of her age and youthful appearance. She has shown unparalleled usage of magic which shocked everyone about her versatility.
It was quite the fitting name for her, considering her appearance and way of fighting. If Kara were to have shown her wings, perhaps she would've gotten a different title. But, sadly, she didn't.
Anyway, Kara is currently preparing for her world travel. She has already seen the planets that Aerys got summoned to, and the world that she chose is Barithea.
The world was your standard fantasy magic-filled world, and Aerys was summoned there in his younger days to be the mount for that era's Hero. Kara couldn't go to the worlds she read about in the books since the war between Monarch and Rulers destroyed those worlds.
The reason why Aerys got contracted there was because of the Demon King that Humans have deemed dangerous. However, Kara would not judge right away since they are Humans after all.
[Present Time]
"Hmm, I can't travel there in my current form. My child-like appearance will only be an obstacle," Kara said while checking herself out in front of a mirror. "Why don't you speed up your age then?" the owl in her bedroom suggested.
Kara nodded to the suggestion and immediately stripped bare for the world to see, well, none actually since it was in her room. Aerys, in his owl form, twisted his head the other way to give privacy.
'What's up with this Master of mine? Doesn't she mind that I'm in the room?' Sadly for him, Flugels are somewhat dense and shameless when it comes to their bodies. However, that does not mean Kara will parade naked in the streets of the world; she was Human after all.
"KYAAAAAAAAA!" a shriek that reverberated across the house alarmed everyone, especially so for Aerys. He looked everywhere in the room but found nothing amiss; this confused him. He only saw his now mature Master, but so what?
But of course, everyone within the house went towards Kara's room hurriedly. Thomas was working, so the one who entered her room in a hurry was Laura and Aela.
*BANG!*
"Kara! What's wrong!?" "Big sis, are you hurt!?" they questioned and eyed the room; the two even readied spells of their specializations. But all they saw was a mature version of Kara slumped on the floor, though this did shock them.
"W-Who are you!? Where's big sister?" Aela growled and stuttered when she saw a glimpse of Kara's new look.
Glistening white-platinum hair that reaches the waist, facial features so smooth, fair, and supple that they look so delicately innocent, along with her slender neck and bare body, men would've gone wild seeing this scene.
However, her face showed sadness and disbelief that it made her look as if someone wronged her. "A-aela, Mama, it's me. Kara" stuttering in anguish while still looking at the mirror.
The mother and daughter pair showed stunned expressions; well, you can't blame them when an adult-like version of Kara is the one greeting you.
"K-Kara, what happened to you? Why did you suddenly become an adult?" worriedly asked Laura; she thought that this was irreversible and the years of Kara's youth gone in the dust.
"M-Mama, it's not that! M-My breasts! I-I'm FLAT!" she howled and dejectedly looked at herself in the mirror. Kara even started comparing her borderline A or B-cup chests to her mother's D-cups.
Aela, still young and a budding flower, didn't understand Kara's pain, confused her about her elder sister's outcry. However, Laura was different; she was a full-grown adult who understood why Kara was so livid.
Kara sped up her bodily age into the prime 20 and would stay there forever because of her Flugel physique. "Kara, can't you use your potions or magic to do something about it?" Laura pointed out that there's still hope.
But of course, Kara is a Flugel, and they are proud by nature by nature. "B-But wouldn't that mean it's fake and not real?" Kara plopped on her bed while still in her birthday suit.
Sighing, Laura decided to leave it be and allow Kara to accept herself. Meanwhile, Fluffy and Aerys watched in confusion, 'What is it with humans and their concern for those bags of fat? Even I can turn into that gender.' Aerys thought.
The gender of Dragons is never fixed and can be as fickle as their flames, ever-changing. However, few historians know this, only Dragonkin or friends of dragons know this.
"There, there, don't worry, big sis! Aela will share some boobies when I grow up!" patting her sister's head, not knowing that she's throwing jabs indirectly.
Days passed, and when Thomas saw his daughter, he got stunned and wept. The reason was his daughter grew up too fast but vowed that he would throw any man who comes close to Kara into dungeons.
Kara could only smile wryly at this; she doesn't even have a love interest yet, and her Papa would already throw all of them inside of dungeons. 'I bet if I said I will marry Papa like those other children, he just might do it,' thinking as she was stabilizing the portal to the other world.
Kara had underestimated the amount of mana to teleport between planets; she tried teleporting there but failed to do so. Instead, she's utilizing the mana in Planet Earth to sustain the portal between the two.
*Woosh~!*
After a bit of tinkering, the portal has stabilized. Kara left it like that for a few hours to be certain that it was stable, and sure enough, it was!
Kara was also 100% sure that it was another world, considering the large amounts of mana pouring out of the portal. Kara also uses the excess mana to stabilize the gate, meaning two worlds ambient mana are supporting it.
"Aerys, try crossing it. I want to see if the safeties work." What Kara referred to were the runes that would not allow passage. Only those that have a unique rune on them can go through.
Aerys did just that while still in his feathered form but is subsequently blocked, to which Kara nodded. "Now, try breathing fire on it," Kara was analyzing it to a T with high-leveled analysis magic.
*Fwoosh!*
The golden breaths of flames curved away from the portal, and bits of magical energy absorbed, weakening the attack. "Uh-huh, as long as ten strikes of those don't go together, it will hold up," reflecting herself.
"Master, didn't you prepare quite a bit just for this portal?" the 'owl' said while flying around it. "Well, I don't want to worry about it. It even has an alarm in place in case someone attacks or even enters it."
[A Few Moments Later]
"And... Done! Every safety is a check! Now, all I need is to leave a clone in place." '[Clone: 10%]' she created a clone that had 10% of her power, strong enough to face multiple A's and B's.
Kara had to leave a clone since she knew her parents wouldn't allow her to hop between worlds. No sane parent would. She turned towards the clone and established a link between them, with a brain of a Flugel, its non-straining.
"Aerys, shall we go and visit your first world then?" giddily asked, already imagining all the knowledge she would steal and harvest! 'Those Baritheans should get ready; something worse than a Demon King is arriving.' but he only nodded.
*Woosh~*
The two have disappeared from Earth while they left the clone to continue the life of Kara in her absence.
Unknown to Kara, a particular ape has been busy spreading its seeds to every female ape he comes across in zoos or the wild. Currently, he's now in the Amazon Rain Forest, ready to party!
