Eisen now stood there in the middle of the room, properly putting on his suit while the rest of the group also got individually ready for each of their assigned tasks. As the old man stood next to the door to wait for them, Xenia walked up to him first, apparently still looking through the notifications that popped up for her.
"So, in the description of the enchantnt, it says that you’re an ’Omni Craftsmaster’? How’d you get such a high-tier job?" She asked before Eisen explained after softly laughing when he rembered what happened in lroe back then.
"You see the town that I woke up near two ’months’ ago was one that had four Grandmaster Craftsn with different specializations, and when they all offered master professions when I reached the peak of my limit-breaker title, those offers all continued to grow and then turned into ’Omni Craftsmaster’. Didn’t you experience sothing similar when receiving your ’Elental Spirit Summoner’ occupation?"
Quickly, Xenia shook her head; apparently, that was not at all how she got it. "Before I received my occupation, I leveled up a lot of different magic skills of mine and then got my elent. But then I wanted to level up higher than level 15 to increase my mana control and capacity, so I thought I’d get a summoner job from soone with the ’Trainer’ title since it fits with my elent, and when I accepted the occupation, it told I could upgrade it to my current one, so I thought ’why not?’."
"Trainer Title? What’s that?" Eisen asked curiously, trying to bring soone to get his mind off of what he was about to do, a role that Xenia gladly took upon herself.
"Oh, a ’Trainer’ is soone that can teach others occupations. It takes a while to get, apparently, but most people still try to earn it so that they can accept disciples and students or sothing like that. Usually, it’s an ’occupation Trainer’ title, but there are also ’Skill Trainer’ and ’Level Trainer’ titles. The latter two are each harder to get than the earlier ones, though. As the na suggests, an Occupation Trainer teaches occupations, a Skill Trainer teaches Skills, and a Level Trainer can help low-level people level up more easily. But that one’s extrely rare, I doubt anyone in this town has it." The High-Elf explained to the old Giant-Dwarf Halfling, who listened to the explanation more than just curiously.
"Huh, interesting. I wasn’t aware of that yet." Eisen muttered to himself. Sothing like that may be worth looking into for him and the other originals, especially the ’Level Trainer’ Title for cases like Kor, who was still below level 15, and Benji who would only begin playing in a week of real-ti. Although, if it was that rare, it might be harder to get than Eisen was thinking at this mont. "And your elent was that Spirit Magic thing you ntioned, right? I was quite surprised. I would have thought you would choose a Mage profession."
Quickly, Xenia nodded, although she seed to hesitate for a while. "Technically, a Summoner is just a mage that casts magic differently that’s all. And I have a specific type of Spirit Magic, but it’s all the sa principles. I have ’Elental Spirit Magic’, just like it’s written in my occupation. Spirit Magic allows you to see different spirits and form contracts with them. Depending on the spirit that you have established an agreent with, you can then accomplish different things. General Spirits are like the thing that I told you about before; it’s a residue of the energy and the souls of people, plants, or other creatures that ended up combining into spirits. That Kirisho woman is also a spirit, right? She’s a different kind, she’s a ’Ghost’, technically, sa term, completely different thing."
"Oh, really? That does explain so questions I’ve had, yeah. I thought that it seed more like sothing a necromancer should be able to do. Anyway, what does the ’Elental’ in front of your magic do?" Eisen inquired, as the group left the room and chose to make their way toward the base, which was situated about 30 minutes away on foot before Xenia continued to explain.
"Yeah, my specification allows to see elental spirits, as well as regular spirits. Elental spirits are those that ca to be through different natural energies. At least in theory, I didn’t find any elental spirits yet, so I wasn’t able to gain proficiency in my new ’Elental Summoning’ skill at all. I could technically make a contract with regular spirits, but I feel like I should wait until I find one that my occupation and magic was ant for."
With a smile, Eisen nodded as he listened to what Xenia explained. He was also growing more and more curious about magic. It was such a new thing to him, so obviously he would be at least a little interested. But before Eisen could ask another question, Xenia continued.
"Oh, and your Elental is coming along pretty well, by the way. It’s still in the seedling phase, but your elent skill rank isn’t high enough yet, so it’s to be expected."
Now, completely confused, Eisen looked over at Xenia with a confused expression that was asking what the heck was she talking about?
"Huh? You don’t know about that? When your Elent Rank hits 6, you can directly summon an Elental that perfectly suits you. There aren’t many people that reach that skill rank, sure, but you should have at least been able to see so every once in a while, right?" She exclaid, seeming more surprised than Eisen himself.
"Well, this is a Town filled with Mages and Sorcerers, so sothing like that is probably much more normal here than where I’ve been up until now. More importantly, you can see sothing like that?" Eisen asked.
"Mhm, I can. The elentals that those people can summon like that are technically sothing similar to the elentals that I can make a contract with, after all. So if I activate the thing where I can see spirits and look at the spot in soone’s body where the mana and elent co from, I can see their Elental or at least partially."
"Interesting, you’ve got to tell more about that later. For now, let’s focus and concentrate on the plan, shall we?" Eisen suggested with a smile, actually quite curious about such an elental, and then the group continued to walk toward their destination.
Luckily, the building that Eisen was about to enter was actually in a quite rundown area, since this area was probably the most easily possible for such an organization to roam around freely. However, the base itself sohow still stuck out amongst the others. On the surface, one may mistake it to be an actual rundown building as well, but once one took a closer look, you could actually see that this wasn’t the case quite easily.
It had utterly intact windows everywhere, and even the doors seed to be well-kept, while every other building in the area had either near to none or completely no windows or doors to show. That was only an example, though. Another good point would be that it was the only place where people seed to be gathering and standing in front of it in different groups.
"Alright, Xenia, can you try and sense the shard now?" Eisen asked her before she quickly nodded and took out her staff, imdiately writing a formation into the air before activating it. To Eisen himself, nothing really seed to happen, but soon enough Xenia looked over toward the building more closely, her eyes wandering below-ground. "It seems to be in so sort of basent layer, maybe 10 ters below the ground. It’s completely static, so your theory that it’s kept secure in one location all the ti is probably right."
With a nod, Eisen looked over at Sky, telling him to summon the Devil’s Spawn, which the Fey-Kin boy swiftly did, while Bree began giving him enough mana to keep it up for as long as needed, on top of keeping multiple Mana Potions on her just in case.
Once the Devil’s Spawn climbed onto Eisen’s shoulder, the old man activated all parts of his demonic transformation, including the new Fullbody Enchantnt, with the help of his staff. Then he looked over at Caria, lissa, and Kiron to tell them to get ready, and then at Kor to make sure he was prepared for his role. Eisen wasn’t sure how great of an actor he was, but Kor also got the additional part of making sure that everyone understood what was going on by freaking out loudly. With his charisma, that may help a bit as well.
"Now, Dien, please cover this whole street with as much mist as you can," Eisen told the Half-Elf, who quickly nodded and grabbed his staff, holding its tip forward before starting to pour his mana inside. "Frost Mist Maximum." He muttered before a literal river of mist flowed out of the staff, quickly flooding the street like water. But it wasn’t sufficient enough yet, and it needed to be able to obstruct the sight of the people standing in front of the building to a large extent.
Luckily, it seed as though Dien had a large amount of mana, and the mist wouldn’t stop increasing no matter how long he cast the spell for until the scene was perfect.
And now, with the sunset behind him, Eisen began to walk through the street quietly, simply stepping through the sudden silence that filled out the area.
Slowly, one after another, each one of the goons began paying attention to the small group of people that seed to have appeared out of nowhere, but none of them could take their eyes off of the intimidating giant man at the center. Already, the goons were quite stiff and ended up just standing there, until one that was apparently either especially proud, brave, dumb or maybe even all of it combined, chose to walk up to Eisen.
"Huh, big guy? The fuck d’ya think you’re doing?" He asked, looking up at Eisen’s cold brazen stare, already startling the goon a slight bit. Before he could even react, Eisen grabbed him by the collar with his left hand, activating its effect of dazing people, before the Devil’s Spawn climbed down the Old Man’s arm to look directly into the goon’s eyes. Now, he was mostly frozen, not being able to lift a finger even if he wanted to, and the area beca silent once more, although this ti the air beca far more electrified, dense and slow as if one second turned into an hour before anyone noticed.
But that all seed like a lie when Eisen now grabbed the goon’s throat, with his right hand relatively lightly as he simply placed his palm against it with a little pressure and only lightly touched its sides with the tips of Eisen’s new claws, to activate the Charisma focus. Before leaning in closer toward the goon’s face, ensuring his enchanted throat transford before opening his mouth to say only a single word.
"Run."
Before Eisen could even notice it, the goon dropped onto the ground, trying to get away from Eisen as quickly as possible as he scread maniacally. The goon accompanied only with his screams, as the others also beca a bit more stalwart and tried to figure out what was going on, so even trying to get away from their current location while the majority stood there in confusion at what was going on.
And that was precisely the ti when Kor used the voice that he always used when trying to convince people, except made a bit louder and more focused toward the area through one of Xenia’s spells.
After taking a long, deep breath, Kor yelled what he thought fit best to make everyone leave. "Run for your lives; it’s the Golden-Eyed Demon!"
