Will of chaos

The next morning I found Nicole doing combat training alone in the training room inside the Ship while in the middle of a circle of floating crystals.

“What are you doing?” (I)

“Pause test 37, stop and save recording.” (Nicole)

“Good morning Dad, I’m in the middle of some tests.” (Nicole)

“What kind of tests?” (I)

“Do you know how Golems move?” (Nicole)

“I imagine that like robots created by science, they must be programmed somehow.” (I)

“You’re half right, magic makes a lot of things easier, but the electronic languages of 0 and 1 don’t work here, normal numerical calculations can be used in many situations, but not everything can be perfectly quantified in numbers.” (Nicole)

“Normal Golems have only one core, it’s called Golem Core or Central Core, it serves as the brain to control the whole body and also as an energy center making energy run through the body.” (Nicole)

“We have to put the information directly into these Cores, a clear image in our mind or recording, from there the various spells do the rest, but I won’t go into details.” (Nicole)

“The important thing is that I want to make some Battle Golems, they will serve to protect me and for different tasks.” (Nicole)

“While we were in Colosseum City, I collected a lot of information and recordings of combat, so I’m going to use that information as a basis for my Golems’ battle mode.” (Nicole)

“What I was doing was compiling these moves as I learned from them for a more detailed picture when I was going to use them on Golems.” (Nicole)

“I know you like to work alone, but if you’re testing about combat, try asking Sophia for help, she’ll be able to guide you in areas you don’t understand.” (I)

“Huh!?” (Nicole)

“…” (Nicole)

“Might be a good idea, I didn’t consider using an expert in the field, thanks for the fresh point of view.” (Nicole)

“Just let me know if you need anything, but remember we’re low on resources.” (I)

I leave the training room leaving Nicole with her things, then head to the dining room, a large dining hall that looks like a restaurant.

But before long I find someone taking food from the table that I didn’t expect to see here and I go to him.

“I didn’t expect to see you here?” (I)

“I’d like to say the same, but I already knew I was headed for that island.” (Luminus)

I grab a tray and load it with meat and different sandwiches, then follow Luminus to a table where just the two of us are waiting to be seated.

I look at this mighty Dragon and I notice something new, there were tribal tattoos on his face that went down to his neck and I could see it on his hands as well.

“You didn’t come here to see me, so what is this about?” (I)

“I can’t say my reason for being on the island, at least not right now, but I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your Contracted Spirit for your help.” (Luminus)

He speaks with eyes full of gratitude, it seems that he has already met the Father of Nyx.

“I did what I promised, but I’m glad I got to talk to Arash.” (I)

“Honestly, it was easier than I thought, part of what he asked in exchange for reconciliation is something he was going to do.” (Luminus)

“If I may ask, what tattoos are those?” (I)

“They are marks of servitude to the Dragon God Akatosh, that will be my people’s penance.” (Luminus)

“Are you saying like slaves?” (I)

“No, it’s more like Knights who served even after our death, an eternal servitude.” (Luminus)

Does he mean that even if they die they will still be servants of the Dragon God? But how does it work?

“(I don’t think I want to know.)” (I)

“I just got in this morning and heard you’re heading to the World Tree, thought I’d join you.” (Luminus)

“I don’t mind, but I’m sure you’d get there faster, plus you might not even make it today.” (I)

“Actually I can’t go alone, I would probably be considered an enemy, the Fairy Queen of this place has a strong prejudice against those with Affinity for the element of Light.” (Luminus)

“It can’t be because of Nix, right?” (I)

“No, that comes before that, but it’s not my place to talk about that.” (Luminus)

“I guess whatever happened to Nix’s family didn’t help with his prejudices.” (I)

“You would be right.” (Lux) ｂ𝚎ｄｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐

“Sorry to intrude, we’ve met before, your the Fairy Queen of the Light element, my name is Lux.” (Lux)

“Nice to see you, Miss Lux.” (I)

“Only Lux is fine.” (Lux)

I look at the beautiful woman dressed in white and I notice that some parts of her body seem almost transparent like her entire right arm, part of her waist, and one of her eyes that is closed.

“I told you not to go.” (Luminus)

“I needed to talk to the other Fairies, without their support the situation could get worse.” (Lux)

“What are you talking about?” (I)

“The Fairy Queen almost killed me, she was stopped by the World Tree and other Fairies.” (Lux)

“I take it you didn’t go there to fight.” (I)

“No, I went there to apologize, I thought it would be better for me and Luminus to go separately, it wouldn’t be good if we both went together.” (Lux)

If she hates the two of them so much, as does anyone else with an affinity for the element of Light that much, I can see why it wouldn’t be a good idea for the two of them to go together.

After that I talked for a few minutes with the two until my sister walked through the door, her face broke into a big smile when she saw the two, I also noticed the panicked face that the two made when seeing my sister Natasha.

But when I saw that the situation was complicated, I ran away while no one was paying attention to me, I’m not an idiot to be in the middle of anything between these three, I wouldn’t know if I could escape with my life afterwards.

I head back to my room to read some more about the crystals in Karina’s hand before I join her and my Familiars for some decisions.

I was thinking about resuming the buff project for a few people on the list, so I wanted their input, maybe call Vanessa and érica to ask for their input as well.
