Chapter 11 - Chapter 11 Enchantress

Her Hair is Like a Raven, Strings of ink Contrasting against the Jade like skin of alabaster.

Her right eye is violet blue,while the left is an azure Ocean.

Her lips like Vermilion fire,The Words That came out of her mouth would perhaps had fallen into deaf ears If only I met her a month ago,So Beautiful was that voice of hers.

Meeting her makes me wonder if there's a correlation between being an Advent and Physical beauty,So many of the ones I have met possessed Beauty rarely found amongst common people,Hers was a Dark Beauty, Beautifully dangerous.

"Humph...So you're The one everyone's been talking about..."

" Quite the Creepy one aren't you..."

I briefly Glance at the Chief,His Light Cough comes before the words.

"...Huh,she has a special ability to know the outer nature of someone's Soul,So worry not,she isn't talking about your looks."

"...Is that supposed to make him feel better?"

" Damned woman!, you're the one making unnecessary remarks,Just shut up and appraise him, I'm paying you Good money."

"... Alright alright,Come Nearer boy."

I arrive right next to Her,Her Hands are placed on my forehead,My Soul Feels Exposed,A Certain feeling of safety tries to invade it,but "I" fight it off Instinctively.

Still in this Foggy State,I Barely hear The Words of The Enchantress.

"Boy!! Don't fight me off or something bad will happen,Lower down your guard!, Quickly!"

I muster Strength within me,My Guard is Let Down Momentarily,Her Cold Warmth Embraces me,And A Faint slumber I Enter.

...

Upon Waking up,The Beautiful face of her Offers Greeting,Yet That Face now has A Certain Coldness To it,I Remember what happened, Somewhat.

" Are you displeased?"

"... Surely,But worry not,I don't Blame you."

I look at her slightly bleeding eyes and Wonder if it is truth she tells,But nothing I say.

"...But boy,I must warn you... You're Soul...It is Dangerous."

" How so?"

" I don't know for sure,But It Seems as if A Dark Impulse is Hiding Beneath, Lurking Like an apex predator.So...Beware,Not only of it, but of those who may witness it as well.

Due to my Upbringing,I care not for such things,but some people may decide that you are a threat...Bad things may happen to you."

" You have My Gratitude."

"...Huh,I see...Well,I guess We Can Already wrap things up,You had come because of The Appraisal, And I already have figured out what your affinities are...

First of all,The Fact that you have Such High Levels of Ambrosía and a Formidable willpower Means you have The Potential to Become a Claw, Becoming a Claw would make you a Great Warrior,The Best There is,Yet It Would also be Very Dangerous since Claws Are Responsible for Dealing with the most Harrowing of Dangers.

Secondly, As I mentioned before,Your Force Axel Is Exceptional,This Means you have Very high Potential as a Spiritualist, Being A Spiritualist is The Opposite of being a Claw,You wouldn't be that strong,yet would be able to gather immense resources without having to risk your life.

That's about it, Everything Else about you is mediocre or Terrible."

'...'

" Thank you for the Appraisal.

Where is The Chief?"

" He's waiting at The Saloon, You can go find him now,or do you have something else to do here?"

"...I do not."

...

The Image of The Muscular Dwarf Sat anxiously, immediately after spotting the Opening Door, Chief Arron Got up Straight,

"Yo kid,you good?"

" I am,But The Lady,Her eyes are bleeding."

" Oh don't worry, She'll be fine soon,That happens sometimes when an accident occurs."

" Now how about you spill the beans on what happened?"

" I would rather not."

"... Mysterious ain't ya?"

"...Well Then, How about The appraisal?"

" I have the potential to either become a Claw or a Spiritualist."

"...Huh,not an Exorcist?,

...How odd,But well,A Fucking Claw?, Ain't I got a special one at my hands..."

"...Well Have you decided on what to do?, Remember That you can also just live like a normal citizen if you wish, Although I don't feel like you would do that..."

" I need some time to think about it..."

" Well of course you do,worry not,we have plenty of time,But Beware,the next exam of The Carnivore Institute of Lagsteinenn Will Happen in about a month, however I would advise you to only take the exam Next Year, After all, You do not come from a Carnivore Clan and Neither Were Raised by The Institute,The Battle experience you have is Probably far below The Others of your age.Like I said before,I know of a very good battle instructor Residing at this very same area That Can At Least help you decrease the gap,

If you decide to become a Spiritualist,I myself can Recommend you To The Trading school in The 2nd Villa."

"... Now, how about we go grab something to eat, Afterwards I'll show you The Hostel You can Stay in,I Picked one near my house,That way it'll be easy for us to meet."

"...You are free to Eat alone,I will do so later."

"...Tsk,tsk...What a Party... Something."

...

My memories with the Enchantress make me think of the Future,What will I Become,What have I Become?

My body wanders while my mind wonders, Through Parts of The Hand I haven't Seen Before The Chief guides me,While The Woman herself was enchanting,her abode was not,and neither was the place of its location.

The Surrounding area is Home to Many Neon Signs And Bright Red Lights,Houses of Scraps are common as well.

This is near the Underside of the Hand, That Part is The largest yet The Least civilized, Located at the forearm of the Titanic Captain, Despite us being just near it,The air is already different.

The Hashles was a poor location but it Generally wasn't really that dangerous,Here however,I can feel The Volture like gazes,The Underside has long been known for The High Crime Rates and Lack of Laws,The Majority of The Inhabitants of there are those who Are not Part of The General Governance,It is The Newly formed SubCity of BloodGrove,Red in Color because of dried blood, Although From What I can see it's still half Gray, The Chief seems familiar with many of those who we passed by.

It takes us about 5 minutes of walking to reach the bridge leading to the Other Side of the Hashles,The Chief Speaks to some strange looking men and seems to offer them something,just like he did before.

I wonder if they're part of the Gangs of BloodGrove, That is A Place full of Criminals, Although currently the Criminal Activity has significantly decreased,The Result of The Ancient WarGod Manifesting in The Hole of BloodGrove,And Hence Offering A path of BloodGrove's Independence From GrayHound.

The Separation of Them Marked the End of Vambrace,The Hand of Nightmares.

The Gangs were a major part in allowing This independence to come into fruition, Especially The Theft Hand,6 of them there were,Each being At The Pinnacle of Unreverands,Some Speculate that The Leader has even advanced to the rank of an Undead Warlord.

It isn't Long Before we Cross The Bridge and Reach The other side,The Asa Delta of his is still There waiting, This Vehicle is mostly a dark brown color,the wings are a Light Brown,It's design similar to a Raptorr,A Famed Bird of Prey, Symbolizing The Prestige of It.

It Functions by utilizing the A.T FATE,This Mechanism allows even Nules to Use The Power of FATE, Making it so that they can bring the future to the present,Ergo Preventing the need to use CORE which is a Rare energy source.

A True Genius must he had been,Swaítceyn,To Create such a Mechanism,One with a mysterious Source of Power.

We Take to the "sky" once again,This Time The Chief Takes me to A Part of The Hashles that could be called luxurious compared to the rest, there lays The Hostel I am to stay temporarily,Once one becomes an Unreverand they must stay Frequently within a Certain type of Zone that stabilizes their soul,There are very few of those in the Hashles,Yet One happens to be just next to The Chief's House.

The man might have chosen his current housing precisely For situations such as this,I wonder What Exactly he might expect from me in exchange for His Favors...
