Alexander The Great Mage

Alexander and Dubaza instinctively instructed their Wyverns to speed up even though they knew it was useless.

The Wyverns sped up once more, flying away as fast as they could. Dubaza's 3rd Generation Wyvern was significantly faster than its 4th Generation sister, but Alexander was pumping in large amounts of verdant energy which allowed his smaller Wyvern to match Dubaza's speed for the moment.

But it would be all for naught if the little furball-turned-little-girl did not act.

"What is that!?" Alexander shouted.

"It's an extremely rare Universe Grade Beast. Many civilisations call it by different names. I personally call it Yummy Yellow Squid. It's delicious if cooked properly. Plus, it's so big it can last for a very, very long time! Or make you really, really full for a very long time!" Fluff-fluff giggled girlishly.

"You… You've actually eaten such monsters before?!" Alexander asked incredulously.

"Uh-huh." Fluff-fluff nodded. "Why? Do you not want to try it? Don't tell me you want it as your Contract Beast?" Fluff-fluff frowned for a moment.

"No-no.." Alexander stuttered at the thought of having such a horrendously disgusting contract beast.

"I suppose I could cut off the yummy parts away and leave it alive for you to sign a contract with…" Fluff-fluff hesitated for a moment. "I am not sure if it can survive without its brains, it's the yummiest part. And I wonder if its eyes can grow back. They're pretty yummy too." Fluff-fluff mumbled while scrunching her eyes together as if thinking really hard.

She had erected a massive barrier that was keeping the 'Yummy Yellow Squid' at bay. However, the Yummy Yellow Squid was having none of that. It's tentacles suddenly grew stiff and they thinned until their sides sharpened to become bladed edges. The suction cups at the tips sank into the main tentacle body as sharp claws took their place.

GRREEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHKKKKKK!!!!!

It's massive body finally broke through the clouds and appeared. And it was every bit as ugly and disgusting as Alexander and Dubaza had imagined it to be.

"Oh Lord, why does it have to be so ugly?!" Dubaza muttered.

"And smelly." Alexander was not a squeamish man, but he had to cover his nose.

The Yummy Yellow Squid sent thousands of tons worth of sharp, pointy tentacles smashing down at Fluff-fluff's barrier. It roared mightily at them.

GREEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!

BOOOMMM!!!!!!

"Okay, I'll spare the brains, but I want the eyes." Fluff-fluff finally decided, totally oblivious to the attacking Squid. "You just have to make do with a blind Squid if they don't grow back. Deal?"

"No, it's alright. You can eat everything." Alexander said hastily. "Go, go and kill it, cook it and eat it. Go now before it breaks down our barrier!" Those last few words were actually rather high pitched as the barrier began showing signs of cracking.

"Are you sure?" Fluff-fluff asked cutely.

CRACK! A large crack appeared on the barrier.

"It's a very powerful Universe Grade beast, you know. Many ancient clans will pay a lot of money to get their hands on one of these. I can leave you one eye, if you really feel that strongly about it." Fluff-fluff offered generously.

Alexander felt a slight twinge as he ruthlessly fought down the rational part of him who urged him strongly to agree to Fluff-fluff. "YOU'RE NOT looking at this ugly beast every day! NO WAY!" He yelled at himself.

"I agree. Let Fluff-fluff eat it! Quick tell her before she changes her mind!!" Flamewing said urgently. Apparently she too couldn't stand the hideousness of the Squid.

"Nono, I am fine without the Squid. You go ahead and enjoy yourself!" Alexander said. "You must have spent a long time since your last delicious meal right? This is your chance to gorge yourself!" Alexander smiled forcedly at Fluff-fluff.

CRACK!! Another large crack appeared.

BOOM!! The Yummy Yellow Squid continued to pound the barrier with its giant tentacles.

"Look, it's right there! Go eat it!" Alexander pointed at the roaring Yummy Yellow Squid.

GREAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHKKKKKKKKKKK!!

Fluff-fluff looked at Alexander quizzically for a moment before finally saying, "Alright. Fine, I'll eat it. You human beings aren't that compatible with the benefits that its meat will bring, so I won't share it with you. I'll… I'll give your Wyverns a little bit." Fluff-fluff said with great difficulty and a deep sigh, as if she was doing something really noble and worthy of praise.

"Nono, you can have ALL of it." Alexander said hurriedly to Fluff-fluff. "Don't worry about us! Just… go and enjoy your meal."

"Alright then! Your loss!" Fluff-fluff gave a small shrug before leaping out of the Wyvern and flying straight out of the barrier into the swirling bladed tentacles.

Alexander, Dubaza and Flamewing held their breaths as they watched the tentacles surge very accurately towards the little girl.

BOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!

GREEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

The Yummy Yellow Squid gave a rather different roar this time, closer to a wail.

Putrid purple blood exploded out, splashing out everywhere.

"First step in preparing the Yummy Yellow Squid snack, get the blood out of the meat." A girly voice rang out brightly from within the explosion of purple blood.

SPLEACHHH!! SPLEEEEEEEEEAAAAAACHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

SPRAY! SPRAY! SPRAY!

GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom The Yummy Yellow Squid wailed even louder and much more miserably as ALL of its tentacles began to split apart. The putrid purple blood rained down upon the sea like a disgusting storm.please visit

"What exactly did she do?" Dubaza frowned as he squinted to catch a sight of Fluff-fluff. But it was impossible. The giant tentacles coiled tightly around Fluff-fluff and purple blood was EVERYWHERE.

"It's a pretty bad day to be a fish living in this part of the ocean." Alexander commented. The sea below them had turned purple with the infusion of the Squid's purple blood.

GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

The Yummy Yellow Squid wailed miserably. The sudden loss of such a huge amount of blood had weakened it considerably. Its tentacles began to uncoil and dangle lifelessly from the main body even as they were slowly sliced into pieces by an unknown power.

SPLEACHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

S P R A Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The Squid's main body finally joined in the fun and exploded in a massive display of purple show.

Alexander's lips twitched. He was trying his best not to let his jaw drop open, and he succeeded. Barely.

Dubaza, next to him, wasn't even trying. He stared at the blood which was spraying everywhere but which was thankfully blocked by the barrier, and the disgusting giant monster which was completely split into pieces.

Both men just sat on their Wyverns in silence. They couldn't find the words or even the intent to say anything at that moment.

Purple blood continued to fall down into the ocean as the Squid meat slowly drained of all its blood.

"Second step, store the meat in a vacuum to sterilize it." The girly voice rang out once more after a few minutes.

WHOOSH!

The squid disappeared. Peace and calm reigned once more, and the beautiful scenery was restored. It was as if nothing had happened. Except, of course, for the lingering disgusting smell of the Yummy Yellow Squid.

Fluff-fluff released the barrier and turned back into a cat, where it promptly sat back on Alexander's head.

Clink.

A yellow ball of some sort the size of Alexander's fist fell onto Alexander's lap.

"Here. Take its monster core. You can feed it to your contract beast. It would drastically raise its life rating, and become many, many times stronger. Be warned though, your contract beast will gain some properties of the Yummy Yellow Squid at random. Use it at your own risk." Fluff-fluff said.

"Uhhh.. Thank you very much?" Alexander said haltingly. He was still very much shocked by the abrupt end of such a powerful monster.

"Don't tell Lyra that I'm a stingy girl who doesn't share any good stuff, ok? That beast core is really very valuable! If you sell it, you'll probably be rich enough to buy your own planet."

"Okay, thank you very much for that." Alexander thanked Fluff-fluff once more.

"Okay. I'm going back to sleep. Don't disturb me." Fluff-fluff yawned, stretched her cute little paws for a bit and then curled up into a ball comfortably.

Alexander looked at the bright yellow ball which was glowing slightly. It felt full of power and energy.

Grrrrrr. Grrrrrrrrrr.

Both Wyverns began to growl and purr and make noises as they sensed the presence of a mind-blowingly delicious object.

Alexander looked at Dubaza who was staring at the yellow ball curiously.

"Do you want it?" Alexander asked Flamewing.

"ABSOLUTELY NOT." Flamewing said firmly.

"Okay, I'll offer it to Dubaza then." Alexander said.

"Please do." Flamewing said generously.

"Are you willing to take the chance of your Wyvern becoming as ugly as that Squid for the opportunity to drastically raise the life rating and power of your Wyvern?" Alexander asked Dubaza.

Dubaza stroked Vernie's head lightly as he pondered and posed the question to Vernie.

Grrrrrrrr.

Vernie nodded vigorously.

Kyaaaaaaaaaaa.

Alexander's own Wyvern wailed lightly as it mourned the lost opportunity to consume the best core.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dubaza said formally. "It would be a great boon for me and my Wyvern."

Alexander tossed the beast core to Dubaza.

"Okay go ahead. Let's wait until we reach the mainland before using it though."

"Of course, Your Majesty." Dubaza bowed gratefully.
