Bronson was over come with fear as the Master stared him down. He began to feel his legs shaking as he failed to speak. The Master just stared at him menacingly before gbteaking out into a loud laughter.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh Deception you should have seen your face! It was priceless! The fear I smelt was very much real, but relax. There was no way you could have foreseen this." The master went and took his seat as Bronson said at him lost for words
"My-my lord what ever do you mean? Did I not fail you in retrieveing the Primal Weapon?"
"No you didn't fool, you would know that if you had even a sliver of a brain cell in that head of yours." V stepped forward as she mocked Bronson. She gave the Master a sweet smile and a slight bow.
"Master if you could please allow me to explain to him?" She waited until the Master gave a nod and she lifted Bronson's head with a finger. Her eyes sparkled slightly as Bronson became filled with annoyance.
He snatched his face and wiped it off before stepping back from V. "Enough playing girl, what do you mean by this? What explanation could you give me?"
She rolled her eyes before sitting on the edge of the Masters desk. "What I'm going to give you is a bit of insight. You see the Primal Weapons are powerful ancient magical items forged by the dwarves for the Greats. Each weapons specifically designed for each Great.
What isn't told though is that each weapon can only be used by the Greats." She smiled as Bronson looked around confused.
"B-but how did that slave boy get it then? You can't possibly be telling me that that boy is one of the Greats?!" His exclamation was loud and ear piercing as the Master covered his ears.
"Ugh Truth if you could stop beating around the bush and get to the point! I'm not sure I can take anymore of Deception's 'surprises'." The master groaned as his head was pounding from Bronson's screaming.
"Of course my lord, apologies." She then turned to Bronson who was bowing in apologies to the Master. "No Deception he is not one of the Greats, not even close. Since he can use one of the Primal Weapons it means their blood flows within him.
Which in turn allowed the weapon to awaken and be used by him. He he." She hopped off the desk before turning to the master.
"Master may I take my leave? I believe something has come up in our journey that I would like to look into if you allow it." She looked up and saw him wave his hand, dismissing her.
She turned around and approached Bronson and leaned in close to his ear. "…don't worry it also means you would have failed miserably if this unknown variable wasn't there. Hahahaha but don't worry about that for now."
Bronson's face turned red with anger as B left the room. He stood there fuming for a bit when he turned to the Master who was staring directly at him. He felt as if he was a small prey in front of a much larger powerful predator.
The Master said nothing but rested his head o n his hand and began drawing circles o n his desk. After a moment he looked up at Bronson who was full of fear. He exhaled loudly before sitting up straight.
"Now Deception that we've gotten out fun out the way. It's time for your next task at hand." His voice was firm and direct which caused Bronson's hair to stand on his neck. He gulped as he waitoed for his new mission.
'Oh Creator, please don't let it be something impossible again. I would love something easy and light.' He prayed deep in his heart when the Master gave him a bright smile.
"Don't be so down now. This task is easier than most and something I'm sure you'll love. Anyway you are to train our new addition to the Seekers until further notice. Though let me be clear."
His voice became dark and heavy as he realeased his magical energy. It wa a heavy as it choked Bronson and locked him in place. He turned blue from the lack of oxygen when the Master began to slowly approach him.
The large man was a foot away from Bronson when he drew back in his magical energy. Bronson was able to breathed and dropped to his knees gasping for air. He looked up at the Master and could only see his red piercing eyes.
"Do not fail me again. Now leave and go prepare for your task. Make sure you do well to inform yourself, in sure next time there won't be a random input to save your ass. Ok? Now leave." He spoke harshly and directly as Bronson scurried to his feet and left the room.
The Master went and took a seat a he stared out the window on to the fog base of the mountain. He closed his eyes as he scratched his head.
*sigh*
"Boy oh boy oh boy. One step closer to completing my goal. Just need to train this boy and hope he proves more useful than my current help."
*******************
V had enetered her room which was akin to a massive library with a bed and large computer screen in the middle of the room. She approached the chair and sat before the large screen and turned it on.
*beep boop beep*
"Hello Mistress I trust your outing was well?" A robotic voice sounded from the computer addressing V in a serval manner.
V yawned at stretched before interlocking her hands behind her head. She tipped herself back and forth in her chair as she stared at the screen blankly.
"Mistress is there something bothering you? Would you like to talk about it, or 'vent' as you say?" The robotic voice was cold but soundly almost concerned fire the woman's health.
V shook her head and snapped back to reality as she rested her head on her hand. She had a slightly glum but cute look on her face. "No no Balam, I'm just curious quite a bit today."
"Curious about what exactly Madam? Perhaps I can be of assistance?"
"Yes Balam, tell me how many species of Reptile Magical beasts we have recorded in the history of Eldoria?"
"Of course Mistress. According to my database, there are currently 3012 recorded species of reptile Magical beast."
V looked at the screen as hundreds of images of magical beast scrolled by quickly. She scanned them all quickly before sighing and groaning.
"Ugh this is going to take forever! Balam how many of these species could be considered snake like or leg and armless?" Her voice was irritated as she tapped her fingers signaling that she was growing in patient.
"Oh course Mistresz there are 372 species of magical beast that are 'snake like' in nature and shape"
The screen filled with various mages of snake like magical beast as V looked over them all. She even gave up as she could not find the one she was look for and slammed her head on the desk.
"Ugh this is impossible how can one have a magical beast that isn't recorded in the Magical Beasy Index?! I must know about that damn black snake. Balam!"
"Yes Mistress?"
"Show me all black snake magical beast with flames on their tails! I want all results now!" She screamed at the screen as it began loading up her request. The loading bar spun and spun for which seemed like an eternity to V.
"UGH TODAY BALAM! I didn't crate a super computer for me to wait all day! Damn! I need to now what that beast was!" She slammed her hand o n the desk as Balam's screen continued loading.
*beep boop beep*
"Error Mistresz! There are currently no recorded snake beasts with flame on their tail. No such beast has been recorded not exist in any data record."
V's eyes went wide with surprise and excitement. She spun around in her rolling chair until the room became dizzy and blurry. She stopped and looked bag at Balam's empty screen.
"N-none you say? Not a single record has it in there? Not! One! Single! Record?!" V's voice was so loud that it echoed through the log cabin alerting everyone.
"This is correct mistress the beast you seek is not in a single data base. At least not from any that I own."
V's body was over come with excitement that she began prancing and running around the room filled with glee. She eventually calmed down and returned to her seat.
"Balam do you know what this means?"
"I do not Mistress, though I do hope you a I'll be able to provide me with some insight."
V felt so giddy that she almost couldn't utter a single word. She eventually calmed herself complete before looking up at Balam.
"This means we well more so I have found a new Magical Beast!"
