"Lady Vivienne, this place…
Its like nothing we've come across before!
Not even within the capital are their such tall structures, cleanliness or even food of this quality.
Everything here seems like a fairy tail…"
"We will find out soon enough, Julia…
Hopefully the Baron or even the Baroness has some weight in the matters of the town."
The two ladies dressed in dark Mage robes with the insignia of the Trika Empire which envisioned themselves as the sun that led the empire.
They were walking down the main street with many of the other Mages and Paladins, shocked out of their minds as they saw the citizens laughing and conversing happily, carefree of the issues that plagued them in many other towns.
While looking around, Vivienne, who had rose coloured silvery hair with similar coloured eyes, noticed some of the people of the Envoy were hassling some commoners.
Since they were Mages, they had a certain level of freedom that let them do as they please.
Vivienne being the leader of the Envoy group felt annoyed that members of the group had already started to do as they pleased.
She didn't feel like interfering of one simple commoner, but her ignorance over the matter would later come back to haunt her…
.
"Let go of me!" the commoner girl with distinct features that made her a dime in a dozen was being held by two Mages that were dragging her away.
She had gone out to do some shopping for the family and was near the shopping market before two robed men came out and asked her to send the evening with them.
The commoner girl wasn't ignorant of things and understood the harsh reality of the world but seeing her hometown transform, with some order finally created, she thought nothing like this would happen.
Screaming for help, she noticed the other Mages looked at her with pitiful expression but chose to do nothing to save her.
In all her life she was told Mage were great people but seeming them doing nothing to save her, she lost it.
"Fuck you Mages!!
We are told that you serve justice but all of you all fucking immoral bastard!!" just as the words finished coming out her mouth, the two Mages that held onto her slapped her face multiple times, not caring if anyone saw.
"How dare you call us immoral!"
"That's right! We deserve sluts like you whenever we please…
Be grateful!!"
The others Mages had heard the girls screams, including Vivienne and Julia who felt insulted for their morals being questioned.
They all wanted to teach her a piece of their minds but seeing that she was soon about to be violated, they couldn't care.
That was until they heard the voice of death enter their hearts…
.
"Ohh… be grateful is it…
Then be grateful for the pain I will inflict on your souls…
For the suffering that your body will experience…
I will make you feel the weakness and powerlessness those that have fallen prey to you… felt…" the darkness from his voice sent chilling pressure down every single Mages spine.
Those that were holding onto the poor commoner girl were crushed by the weight when they looked up and saw a figure floating, surrounded by the Dark and Light element but to a whole different scale.
The Paladins who watched on to all of the events and chose to not get involved, including Sara who was held back by her friend Hush.
However, Sara wasn't free from the orders given to her by the Commander.
All of the Paladins rushed out before the Mages and brought forth their shields for protect as their swords were aimed at the floating man with long black flowing hair.
The Commander of the Paladins was utterly confused how someone could control both Light and Dark like the floating man, but even the purity of the Elements to a different scale, even greater than the Pope…
"You Paladin, those who are supposed to be the Guardians against Darkness and injustice… how the hell could you allow these Mage to do such heinous actions!!" Rahzil couldn't care anymore and let his anger roar as the pressure continued to build on all of those who watched on.
Only a few people could continue standing against the pressure, with one screaming above the rest.
"Wait!!
We are members of the Envoy sent by the Church and Empire!!
You cannot do this!!" Julia screamed while trying to keep herself from falling over.
"By the laws of Vileta and the land that is in control over the governing body within the area that you all decided to abide by when you entered this town have been broken!!
If you want to talk about rules with me little girl, then you and every member of your Envoy is guilty…"
Seeing Julia collapse under the sheer amount of force sent in her direction by Rahzil, Vivienne spoke up, praying in her heart that if her next words couldn't stop the black-haired man, then they were all bound to die.
"May I ask… do you serve the governing body of Vileta?" Vivienne said, while trying her best to keep her composure.
Signalling the Paladin Commander to sheath his weapon, Vivienne hoped it was enough to calm the black-haired Mage.
"Little girl, the one that sent me runs this town…
All of the changes are his work, yet your filthy kind decided to shit on his work…
I'll be taking those responsible away to be judge by our laws."
"You can't do that to us!"
"Please Lady Vivenne save us!!" the two Mages that were crushed below Rahzils feet were screaming for help, but they were ignored.
Even the one that sent them to grab the girl decided to hide behind the others, so he wasn't called out.
Sadly, that wasn't going to work with Rahzil…
"Quiet!
Now… tell me who sent you fools to grab his innocent child…?"
Rahzil had a connection with the space now and could call forth items as he needed.
Bringing some medical droids to Vileta, Rahzil told them to treat the commoner girl and to get her report on the situation while he dealt with the scum.
.
Hearing the black-haired Mage was looking for the one who stared the nonsense, Vivienne tensed right up knowing if the culprit was apprehended, more trouble than necessary would be created.
"Please… Mage, how about we talk about compensation for the commoner?
How does some gold sound?" Vivienne thought her words were sincere, but Rahzil scoffed, furious she thought so little of the commoners.
"Little girl, are you a noble…?"
"Yes…"
"No wonder…
You fools have forgotten that your nothing more than commoners with a title…
How disgusting…"
Rahzils words seemed to have unleashed the noble anger that seemed to inhabit every noble child who saw themselves as greater beings.
But as they tried to ark up against Rahzil, it felt like going up against an immoveable and unclimbable mountain.
.
Deciding to not deal with the stupid children any further, Rahzil infected the two mages below his feet with Pure Light that infected their minds, putting them in his control.
He knew better then most that Light magic could be used for so much more than healing and using it before the Paladins and Mages seemed like a perfect demonstration class.
The Paladin were completely exhilarated by seeing their Element that they were all connected with transformed into a combative skill.
Only the Commander knew what this meant and was terrified that someone outside of the Church could use the Light Element in such a method, even exceeding the chanting spell that they needed to use.
The Mage on the other hand were ready overjoyed at the prospect of seeing new magic before their eyes, completely forgetting the situation they were in until they heard the two Mages speak.
"Who told you fools to grab this innocent child…?"
"H-Henry Dormer, son of the Grand Duke, Richard Dormer, cousin to the Imperial Royal Family."
"Shit…"
The second Henry heard his name being called, he was ready to dash the hell out of the room, but as he was about to move, he was picked out by Rahzil who quickly wrapped his Dark Mana tendrils around the kid.
Bringing him over, Rahzil sent a spark of Light Mana into his mind and started examining his memories, which were filled with disgusting and horrific acts committed by the kid.
Seeing it all was quite the shock to Rahzil who never expected to see such anger from a child, but knowing the nobles were abusing their power to such an extent, Rahzil felt compelled to do something.
As the droid guards came pouring and started making arrests, grabbing all of the Paladins and Mages, Rahzil was turning to leave with the three guilty Mages before he heard someone screamed out for his attention.
"Please!!
Leave Henry Dormer behind and take me!!
I am in charge of leading this Envoy group, so all responsibility should rest on me…"
Rahzil could see Vivienne made a great point, plus she seemed to be far too eager to save the foolish brat that deserved to die in Rahzils opinion.
"Very well… come along with me as well then." Rahzil wrapped the Dark Mana tendrils around her before turning to head for the Lords Estate.
.
"Eh?
I said to stop them, not to humiliate them Rahzil…" Esmond massaged his head to deal with the headache the continued to build with every new piece of information.
"… Hey, this guy here, Henry whatever, is a fucking curse on this world, much more than I ever was…"
Rahzil could transfer his thoughts through the powers of the space, so Carter had sent the memories of Henry Dormer to Esmond.
After viewing the memories and seeing the atrocities he'd committed without being punished, Esmond sighed and looked in the direction of Vivienne who seemed to still be bound by the Dark Mana Tendril.
"You were the one that was leading the group, correct?
So, tell me why you have never stopped his disgusting behaviour?"
Esmond leaned back in his desk with a drink in his Spiritual Essence Infused Scotch, while staring at Vivienne whose mouth freed, as the tendril retreated to Rahzil who was sitting in Esmond seat behind the desk.
Much to Carters annoyance who wanted to take the seat, so he pushed the papers aside and sat cross legged on the desk just to one up Rahzil.
Levas and Julius were also in the room, but they'd taken their seats on the lounge to the side like normal people.
They looked at one another and then Rahzil and Carter who were acting like children in their minds.
But what they didn't understand was the sheer terror it showed.
While someone could sit behind the desk and display a menacing aura, someone who seemed to be relaxed and uncaring all too much was rather puzzling on the mind.
Henry, his two minions and Vivienne were confused as to why they seemed so relaxed and calm, doing as they pleased.
Even the person in charge seemed to not care about the behaviour of the other two.
For Vivenne it was quite the comfortable atmosphere which terrified her.
In her mind, they were comfortable because they knew nothing could harm them and that alone could make people too lazy but seeing the strength of the black-haired Mage who was respectful to the man that was leaning on the desk.
Everything spelled trouble.
.
"H-He is the son of the Grand Duke, Richard Dormer, the cousin to the Imperial Royal Family.
I'd once thought about trying to discipline him, but it just made them do much more harm to the next group of commoners we came across.
Eventually someone from the Grand Dukes household forced a member of the Imperial Mages to threaten my position and now its my responsibility to clean up after him…"
Vivienne was the daughter of a Marquis however her position was nothing in front of a Grand Duke and their connections.
Not wanting anything to befall her family, she started to let them do as they pleased and eventually the other Mages saw her in a different but understandable light as they had they own fair share of problems with greater powers.
