After everything became clear and introductions were out of the way everyone started to get familiar with each other as time when by and night started to cover the sky like a curtain made of total darkness.
Minami was very tired of all the journey and every thing that happened. So she decided to sleep early and went to her room to take some rest.
Looking at the clock Mia also decided to go back to her apartment as it was getting late.
" Shu looks like our time together for today is over I have to go home. It's getting late, bye see you at school tomorrow.
I'm leaving Shu in care miss Aella then." Mia said to Shu and also reminded Aella to do her job properly.
" Okay..bye go home safe. See you at school tomorrow." Shu also bid farewell.
They started to walk towards the door as Shu wanted to see Mia out. Aella followed them silently. After they left the gate and arrived at the road she said something that surprised them to the core.
" Where do you think your going ? without even answering my questions." Aella's voice turned cold and she released a extremely overwhelming aura.The aura was so strong Shu almost got blown away he could swear the intensity of her aura is the strongest he'd seen apart from Scarlett.
Aella's body started to emit small blue lightning and wind around her began to howl like a hungry beast.Her body also changed, her long blue hair became spiky floating in the air defying gravity. Her head now had a pair of furry triangle ears like a hairy dog , her eyes became sharp and her blue pupils started to glow brightly. Her mouth now had small sharp teeth like a animal and her back now had a furry tail.
Watching her transformation shu become stunned for a long time and just stared at her with wide eyes then he broke out in cold sweat.
Mia was even more surprised but then her face turned serious and she also released her own aura to suppress Aella.
" It's not gonna work on me, little kitty you're not strong enough to change a thing." Aella snorted in disdain and released ever more of her power and completely suppressed Mia. Making her total stiff.
" What are you doing Aella? and who are you?" Shu screamed angrily at her his both feets lit up with fire and he arrived near to Mia in an instant . It was a technique Shu created using fire magic and his passive boosting ability, he named it ' Fire body reinforcement magic ' . Like the name suggests it's your typical body reinforcement magic with fire as a means to boost the raw power and speed output of the attacks and movements. As fire is definitely a destructive element but it lacks in diversity. It's a total offensive magic with some defensive skills like fire barrier or sheild but it completely lacks in movment department. So Shu made this skill to compensate in that regard.
The skill uses rocket science as the main mechanism by blowing fire out from the feets he gets a quick boost in speed for a short time and by repeating the same process mixed with his already boosted agility by the boosting ability Shu can reach a speed impossible for any D rank to achieve even if they're using lightning or wind elements. But the downside was that his movements became very difficult to change so he had to practice a lot to maintain a perfect control over his movements. If the fire bust is very big or the duration is too short / long he might go past his opponent or even land too early then his opponent and changing in mid flight was even more difficult so he decided to use this skill to just charge straight to attack otherwise to run away.
Seeing Shu coming near Mia, Aella just stared at him but didn't do anything.
" Just stay quiet obediently little red dragon till I'm done with this kitty here." She said coldly to him and again focused on Mia.
Hearing her calling him little dragon Shu's mouth twitched furiously ' why is it that every magical person he meet calls him little? He knows as a dragon he's a baby but do they really have to remind him every damn time ? ' he was really annoyed.
" Now little kitty answer me what did you do to my real master? Why is this bady Dragon impostering him? " Ignoring Shu, Aella asked Mia with a voice cold like a ice.
" I didn't do anything to him and he is the real Shu and he is a dragon." Mia said with a neutral voice , clearly she was not afraid of Aella's threats and was actually annoyed.
Well it's true there's nothing to be afraid for Mia as earth is a neutral planet no one can kill someone from other races, and as a primogen descendent she had enough life saving and emargency alarm items on her that even if something happens Aella won't be left unharmed.
" Lies how can a mere mortal woman give birth to a dragon? and his father is also a human. Don't try to fool me, you deceiving cat's." Aella didn't believe Mia's word's.
" Okay if you won't say the truth then this dragon will. " Seeing that Mia won't explain anymore she turned her attention towards Shu.
" Little puppy I think you would believe her now." Just when Aella wanted to bully Shu for answers. She heard another woman's voice that was even colder then her own and along with that a wave of ice cold killing intent breeze through her body, making every hair on her body to stant up. Her body visibly trembled by the overwhelming bone chilling killing intent.
Looking towards the source of the voice she saw a extremely beautiful woman floating above Shu with the same crimson red hairs and eyes looking at her with cold eyes which holds a strong disdain in them as if she's not even worthy to breath the same air as her. The woman was exuding a aura so powerful that she couldn't even breath and fall to her knees.
The woman was naturally Scarlett after she woke up she saw the whole situation and she was furious when Aella threatened Shu, how dare a dog try to bare it's fangs towards a mighty dragon. Even more so towards her beloved Shu.
Aella was choking and desperately she tried to circulate her magic to creat air for her lungs but it was very difficult under Scarlett's immense pressure.
Seeing her condition Shu asked Scarlett to lower the pressure as they can't kill her not that he wanted to if the kii her, how is he gonna explain to his mom.
" Scarlett lower the pressure we still need to know why she attacked us and we can't kill her. " Shu said to Scarlett.
Then he took Mia's hand to pull her up of the ground.
" Are you okay? Nothing happened to you right? " Shu asked nervously.
" Hehe.. it's nothing my mom is a lot stronger then her so this kind of pressure is nothing to me, you can rest assured." Mia said with a smile on her face. She was not panicked in the slightest. But she was very happy in her heart to know Shu's concern for her.
" Alright if you say then it's okay but who is she and why did she attacked us? " Shu couldn't help but ask he still couldn't understand why Aella was so furious.
Hearing Shu's question Mia put on a annoyed face which in all honesty had its own charm, Shu found it very cute.
" Humph...she is just a better breed of dogs what you call a wolf, although she is a rare type their race is call the blue lightning and wind wolfs. Simply they are blue Wolf's with the ability to use lightning and wind magic." Mia said with a neutral tone.
Shu now understand the reason why Mia is so annoyed as a cat she must hate dog's and wolf alike.
When Shu and Mia were talking with each other Aella who was still kneeling started to sob tears began to drop from her blue sky like eyes and trickle down her ivory white cheeks.
" Master what should I do ? I couldn't save you from that women she's very powerful much more then me. Are you still alive ? Did they kidnape you ? But why? " She muttered but still couldn't understand why a dragon so powerful would attack her master.
At that time Shu walked towards her and asked "Why did you attacked us? And who are you?"
But Aella didn't answer and continued to cry. Soon her tears began to drop on the road and Shu noticed them. He really couldn't understand what the hell is going on in this weird woman's brain. A moment ago she was attacking them and now she is crying what the hell?
" Hey puppy didn't you hear he asked you a question? " Scarlett bareted angrily.
" What did you do to my master? Where is he? " Aella ignored her angry words and asked instead with new determination as if not afraid of Scarlett's strength.
Scarlett don't understand how she can act this unafraid, but looking into her determine eyes she became stunned as she realised it's not that she is not afraid but her resolve is overpowering her fear.
Scarlett began to doubt Aella's mental condition but then she remembers a very important feature about the wolf race and she mouth opened wide in disbelief.
" No...it can't be...how...and why.." Scarlett mumbled random words that Mia and Shu couldn't understand.
" What happened why are you looking so troubled. Is something bad happened." Shu asked with doubt clearly written over his face.
Hearing his question Scarlett sighed and looked at him with a warry smile, then asked " Do you know about Fenrir ?"
" Are you taking about the Heavenly wolf? Who is a son of God Loki, suppose to have the power to kill a god with his bite?" Shu answered with some doubts he had read about the myth from his father's mythological books collection.
" Yeah! he has another name the god eater. His abilities are anti magic and devour along with abnormal physical strength. So he can breakthrough any kind of magic and also he becomes stronger by devouring others. But do you know he still had a master who can order such a abomination?" Scarlett again asked.
" Yes the legend is that Hella the goddess of death and underworld in Norse mythology is his owner." Shu also read about it.
" Do you know why? " Scarlett asked.
" No..as someone so strong it should have a lot of pride then how can it bow to someone at the same level." Shu can't really understand.
" It's because Wolf's are like dogs very loyal and he became obsessed with hella and choose her as his master. In today's word's he was and still now a walking and talking example of absolute simp." Scarlett explained with clear contempt. How can a creature so powerful still hold on to his instincts as a ordinary animal, well dogs(Wolf's) are dogs(Wolf's) no matter the size or abilities.
" Really but why are you saying those things now?" Shu asked while the topic was quite interesting but it's not the time to talk about the main story behind the myths.Scarlett again signed and then finally decided to say the truth " It's the same with you, she also accepted you as her master and will live or die with you/ for you."
And Scarlett droped a bomb over Shu, he didn't react at first but moments later his jaws almost dropped to the floor and eye's popped out. He hurriedly asked " What are you saying how can she choose me as her master when we've just met ah hour ago and I'm weaker then her."
Hearing their conversation Aella screamed " his not master. He is fake the real Shu Kurenai a human is my master."
Hearing her confirmation Shu's whole world began to spine and his head felt dizzy.
