"Wake up already sleepy heads" I said.
The two slaves groaned and mumbled loudly. Slowly, they stirred themselves back to full consciousness. They looked around themselves and found out they weren't at the sa location anymore. They noticed their wounds were still present and their attires still had their ruined form.
I'm sure they are surprised I didn't heal them or fix their clothes. But why should they be? I'm their master, not the other way around. Plus, I already decided not to use Hex for a while, though there are still items I can use. There's also the final reason... Well, let's hear what they have to say.
"We are...?" Talia asked, looking around the unfamiliar room.
So they won't address the matter of their current state, eh? Smart ones.
Shamac also had a strange expression on his face, but he refused to speak about the room. He was more interested in another matter.
"Master, what happened... Who won?" He asked .
Talia heard this and her face imdiately changed and clouded over. It must due to the fact that she failed, despite her power up.
"We are currently at the apartnt of one of my friends." I said to them, answering their Talia's question.
They both looked surprised. They must be surprised due to my choice of words. Well, that much is expected.
"As for who won... No one did"
The both of them made surprised expressions.
"No one? But that ans...." Talia said.
"Yes. The both of you passed out before a winner could be decided." I said.
Talia heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. Shamac looked disappointed at himself. It must be frustrating. After all the effort he put, yet he couldn't beat her.
"However, I have to admit. Based on the events of the battle, If I am to decide upon the winner based on performance, I'll pick Shamac."
Talia's eyes widened when she heard this.
"B-But why? He clearly struggled when fighting . If not that I ran out of ti... I would've..." She protested.
"Excuses" I cut her short.
She shut herself up when I spoke.
"In terms of power and overall advantage you, Talia, were superior. However, Shamac's skill and good use of what he had was vastly incomparable to yours. If you had been more earnest, perhaps the fight would have turned out differently. You weren't prudent and cautious, since you were more powerful. You recklessly used your essence, shortening your ti even more. Your attacks lacked efficiency and you had no proper defense" I said to her.
She looked sober when I ntioned these.
"If not for the drawbacks of Shamac's form, he would have won. Yet do you see him protesting over the stalemate? That alone proves him to be the winner" I added.
Shamac remained expressionless, however he also had sothing to say.
"You shower with undeserved praises master" He said.
"Of course. It's good you know" I said.
"It took you too long for you to realize the other advantage you had and for you to utilize your Shapeshifter abilities. Though I already observed you can't properly use the two of your variant abilities simultaneously, but you'll need to work on that. Combining those two efficiently will be your greatest weapon in the battles to co" I said.
"I understand. Thank you for your reproof master" He said earnestly.
I can't say I'm displeased with that.
"Now that we have that out of the way, there's sothing I need to tell you" I addressed them both.
They both had expectant looks on their faces and expected the words I have to say. Well, it's going to happen anyway, might as well just have it out of the way.
"By this ti tomorrow... I'll be in control of this entire town" I told them.
"W-Wha... How is that possible?" Talia let out in surprise.
"M-Master, are you serious?" Shamac asked.
"Yes, of course." I said.
"Then master... What do you need us to do?" Shamac asked earnestly and excitedly.
Talia also nodded her head with him in agreent and looked at expectantly. Stupid girl, and yet she was asking how possible it is for to control a asly town? Even Shamac has a better perception of my person and capabilities than her at this point, and she has been with the longest.
He knows very well what I'm capable of, at least in the little capacity of his knowledge. As much as I would like it for them to be by my side when it happens... They will serve more useful purposes.
"The both of you... Will be captured and tortured by my friend, until finally I obtain you back by so miracle tomorrow." I said to them.
"Wha-?" Talia asked in confusion.
"Look around. I said this is the place of my friend didn't I? Well that is according to the narrative." I smiled.
"Narrative? Master I don't under-"
Before Shamac could complete his sentence, I drove my fist deep into his gut, forcing him into unconsciousness. He gagged and fell down imdiately.
"Hexarion, what's going on? What are you...?" Talia protested, a bit scared from the tone of her voice.
I used my hand to grab her by her throat and raised her up.
She used her hands to hold my hand and had a scared and shocked look on her face as she choked. Tears ford around her eyes and saliva was falling from her mouth as she was slowly losing oxygen and couldn't breathe.
"I know this makes no sense to you, but that doesn't matter to . Explaining will be a waste of ti anyway. Just do what you always do Talia... Be pathetic" I smiled.
She lost consciousness too, as her hands dropped and her face fell. I released my hand and her body fell to the ground. Her head hit the floor and caused a bit of a loud noise. Well, she'll be fine. Fairies have sturdy skulls after all, and for Talia I'm sure they are extra hard.
I walked away from them and opened a portal in front of myself. The purple rip in space warbled in front of and I slowly entered. I looked back at the two of them and smiled before entering the portal and disappearing from the room.
"Let the gas begin"
