I stood up on a box I grew out of the grounds with Greckcains growth magic and looked around the townspeople that were gathering around. I had drawn a crowd, but that was the Idea; this had to start sowhere, hope was just the start, but I didn't want to have to keep renaming states, that sounded annoying. I wasn't going to let this world rest in the shit ideals that it had beco complacent to.
"Hey! I'm Hyde, I don't know if you have heard of or what has been happening in Haertia, which is now called Hope."
Murmurs and gasps were coming from the crowds, but no one spoke up. I didn't expect them to have much of a reaction, so I continued. Now was the ti to see what the people thought of the world.
"Are you okay with how the world is?"
Most of the people nodded and a couple even spoke up and said that it wasn't so bad for them. I had been looking through the crowds, but couldn't find a single beastfolk.
"Only because it doesn't affect you right? What if the world ca knocking at your doorstep? What if monsters ca in the night and stole you kids? What if soone stole your entire family and killed them for sport?"
The crowd was deathly quiet, faces had drained of color and so people looked like they would be sick. Good, they should feel sick, just because you don't support sothing openly doesn't make it write to sit back and watch it happen.
"I am not here to scare you or hurt anyone, UNLESS"
I let the words hang in the air and I could see a large man with two younger n following, but both were in good shape. About the ti the Mayor showed up, and he must have brought his son? Maybe or just hunters to make him look tougher, but now was what I had been waiting for; whatever happened next would see how much of the day were have left to enjoy.
"Great Nobleman, how can I be of service to you?!"
The Mayor had a panicked look, and pieces started to click into place. They thought I was so stupid noble from the city, damn, it was this stupid trench coat thing. I let the coat thread apart, not really thinking about it.
"HOW?!"
"This is Hyde, you do not know him yet, but he is a reincarnated hero chosen by my father, The Almighty Gripton. He has already cleansed Landokingson of Haertia. Hyde let the people see a better display of your ability."
This was fine, I was all for playing with fire! I lit on fire and let my skin go black, cracks of red light showing through. The crowd all stopped back but I was instantly in the air about three ters and closed Trem's planetary circle tighter and then filled my sphere with fire, wind, and then spin. Soon, I tightened up the fire into blue lines and I was able to make them spin around like I was a life-sized atom.
Everyone was staring up at with mixed emotion, fear was the main one, but I wasn't trying to show how nice I was. I let all the magic go, except for my fire, and fell to the ground with a loud thud because I had made myself a bigger in trade of the atomic sphere. I lood over the crowd and looked them over, fear, it was in every face.
"Do you have sothing to be ashad of? Why do you not allow the beastfolk to walk among you?"
"Wait! Mr. Hyde, please wait!"
Alex put a hand on my leg and I looked down at her small fra putting a hand on my knee. I was over four ters tall, a giant monster scaring the people now. I let the magic all go and shrank back down; I hadn't realized that I let the magic go. I would have to be careful in the future, but it was also good to know that I could feed my emotions into the magic. I crossed my arms and looked at the mayor and nodded for him to continue.
"Ken, Tam, go let your mother know to let them out now, it was a false alarm, and to bring them for uhh, Hyde."
"What's up? Why are you so hesitant to say my na?"
"You must be a king or lord, it feels wrong just to call you only Hyde. A man such as yourself is much greater than such a simple title."
"Well, we call him Great Master Hyde!"
Oh, bless Nuwari, GODAMMIT! The tart stays quiet and cute this entire ti and NOW she speaks up. Ugh, these won never cease to amaze with the tenacity!
"Oh? That is a fine na and much better than Just your own!"
"Designer flaw in my magic, but HEY! I happen to like my na!"
"Yes, well, you see hide is very common here so it would be like calling my child Barn or Barrel. Very unique nas, but probably for a good reason, hehe."
Both won were in tears beside doubled over and the simplification of my na and then there was the left-handed comnt he slid in at the end. I wasn't mad, I liked my na, fuck you too! Everyone had joined the laugh, but it was a nice change from the tense crowd I had stirred up before.
"Alright, now that we have all had a good hard belly laugh, I would like to introduce two of my beautiful wives, Alexcoria, Spider goddess of the Sun Root forest, and Nuwari of the...Daughter of who? dicofalpez? kordifalz, King of Procti."
Wow, that could have gone better, I guess I better get on top of learning my wives titles and birthplaces, at least this was a backwater town and not a royal court.
"Well! You have quite powerful wives, Great Master!"
"You don't know half of it."
"He will look up...nevermind, they are here."
