"Master, answer me!"
As I stood there, feeling dizzy and disoriented, Nari's voice rang out like a bell in my foggy mind. Despite the overwhelming sensation of vertigo, I couldn't help but find her tone demanding, yet cute.
It was almost as if I was seeing her in a new light, and I couldn't help but smile at her adorable demeanor. Her words were commanding, yet her voice was soft and gentle, and it made me feel at ease despite the dizziness.
As I tried to steady myself, I found myself drawn to her presence, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth and comfort in her company. It was as if I had discovered a new side to her, and it made my heart skip a beat.
In that moment, I realized that Nari was more than just a friend. She was someone special to me, someone that I didn't want to hurt.
I looked at Nari… And now I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt wash over me. I knew what I had done was wrong, and I couldn't bear the thought of Nari losing my trust.
I had manipulated her blood without her permission, and it was a violation of her trust. Even though my intentions were good, I couldn't justify my actions, and I knew that I had to make things right.
As I thought about how to approach Nari, I felt a knot form in my stomach. I knew that she would be angry and hurt, and I didn't want to lose her friendship.
But I also knew that I couldn't keep this secret from her. I had to own up to my mistake and face the consequences of my actions.
"Nari… I…." As I approached her even closer, I could see the suspicion in her eyes. She knew that something was wrong, and I felt how the the weight of guilt was crushing me.
I took a deep breath, "this is the power of my mother's side, it allows one to manipulate his own and others blood while the person is still alive…"
That I remember correctly, it was my favourite Rowen's power that could actually made him overpowered, If only he wasn't stupid…
Nari's expression was one of shock and anger, and I knew that I had hurt her.
"Ma-master, how can you control it?"
"I'm not sure myself and I'm sorry for trying it on you without your permission…" I tried to sound as guilty as possible, hoping she would forgive me.
"I understand, I apologise for attacking you as well…"
She surprisingly took it really well, indeed.
We both awkwardly stood there in the dark, damp dungeon, the putrid smell of decay hit me like a ton of bricks. Despite the fact that I had been down here for an hour, the stench still lingered in my nostrils, making me feel sick to my stomach.
I tried to breathe through my mouth, but even that didn't help. The air was thick with the smell of rotting flesh, and it made me feel like I was suffocating.
Every step I took seemed to make the smell worse, and I couldn't help but wonder how anyone could survive down here for more than a few minutes.
The walls were covered in mold and mildew, and the floors were slick with slime and muck. It was like walking through a nightmare, and I couldn't wait to get out of here.
"Do you want to continue the training or go back inside the mansion?"
Nari's words brought back to reality, even if I was tired, I still needed to train more… I couldn't waste my time.
"Let's continue," I replied when I glanced at her.
"Master…" Nari paused when she spoke in a soft voice, "do you want to try your new power on me again?" She looked down, her confidence was gone.
I didn't get her… She was mad when I did it first, but now that she knows, she wants me to do it again? She was a strange woman.
"Are you sure you can handle it?"
"Yes, this way I could check my own mana's stability…" She looked up to me.
"I will not show any mercy," I hoped to stop her, I really had no plans on hurting her.
"Then I shall not show any as well," she grinned.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ The uncomfortable and awkward silence was finally broken thanks to the tension in the air. The atmosphere was thick with rivalry, and I knew that something was about to go down.
"Let's begin."
I took a few step backwards, making myself comfortable and waiting for Nari to get to her position as well.
I watched in awe as Nari's hands moved slowly and gracefully through the air. Her movements were like a dance, each motion precise and deliberate.
As her palms began to glow with a deep purple light, I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end. Something powerful was about to happen, and I knew that I was about to witness something incredible.
Suddenly, the purple light began to take shape, forming into a set of kunai in Nari's hands. The blades gleamed in the light, and I could see the power crackling around them.
It was like watching a master artist at work, each stroke of her hand imbuing the kunai with deadly precision and power.
I couldn't help but be impressed by Nari's skill and grace. Her magic was unlike anything I had ever seen before, and I felt privileged to be able to witness it firsthand.
As she finished her spell and lowered the kunai, I could feel the energy still crackling in the air around us. It was a moment that I would never forget, a testament to the power and beauty of magic in the hands of a skilled practitioner like Nari.
"You still have time to run, master" her tone was mocking.
"Have you forgotten who lost last time?" I raised my voice and lifted the right corner of my lip, lifting my palm, I spoke, "let's start then."
