The Last Primal

AN: Hello dear Readers!

If you are reading this somewhere other than on AllNovelFull, know that whilst it pains me, I still appreciate each and every one of you. Knowing that there are people out there that genuinely enjoy the content, the story, the world, and the characters I have dreamt of is a very unique and rewarding feeling.

However, it also hurts me to know that the countless hours I have worked on this, are just stolen away.

Anyway, let me know your thoughts and concerns. Share your opinion with me, and come join my growing discord community. I promise you I listen. :) 

Also while you are there, show me some love, and buy me a coffee so at least I know that my work is not wasted. :)

'What can I do then? Tell me please! Quickly!' Hearing the explanation Aiden only grew more worried than before.

'[Well… There are two ways to go about this, both are very risky and will have different results. For one, you can simply take back the stolen energy. This would cause her current suffering to come to an end, but will also leave her in this unconscious, Mana Deprived state. Additionally, the damage that was already made would be incredibly difficult to fix, most likely she will remain a crippled being.]'

Aiden frowned as he listened to the first option. Taking this route, he would effectively destroy all hopes and dreams her Master had for the future and leave her as a regular, powerless and weak person. Something he was sure she would rather die than suffer through.

Shaking his head, he asked his System Guide.

'This is not feasible. What else is there to do?'

'[You are correct. Choosing this option would have also made you potentially fail once again. As you have just barely contained the threat of…]' Suddenly, Enya turned silent for a moment, before shifting the discussion.

'[Anyway… The second option would be even more outrageous. It would go against the nature and the rules of this very world. Doing so will be considered blasphemy, the very first step you take against the reign of the Gods of this world. Know that if you go along with it, and if they take note of what you have done, it may cause you or those that you hold dear to your heart to suffer. Remember the memories of your father, that apocalyptic scene… Are you ready to face such threats?]' Instead of giving a straight response, Enya once again asked for confirmation.

Just like before, Aiden didn't hesitate in his answer.

'Yes, no matter the consequences, we need to save her! We can't waste more time, tell me what to do! What is this second option?' Nervous and agitated, Aiden could barely contain himself and his thoughts as he focused most of his attention on the slowly dying mother figure of his.

For a few brief, but at the same time tortuous, tense seconds there was no reaction from his guide. 

Eventually, a sigh could be heard, as Enya spoke once again. This time, her tone was calm, carrying a type of warmth, that if Aiden wouldn't be so strained and tired due to the criticality of the situation, would have recognized… 

'[It is actually very simple, Aiden. To fix the situation, you need to give her the very thing she is missing. ]'

However, Aiden didn't understand what she was hinting at.

'What do you mean?! What does she need?'

'[What did I say before? What is the root cause of her suffering?]'

'Ehrm… Driving his mind into overdrive, Aiden desperately tried to recount her words for the resolution. 'My Soul Power is basically incompatible with her body, and it is what is causing her to suffer and slowly wither away… So… Wait!' 

As the realization hit him, Aiden's eyes went wide with the shocking news. 

'You can't possibly mean…' He muttered inwardly, cautiously circling the impossible idea. '…she needs a core?'

However, Enya's next words were calm, despite everything that was going on.

'[Yes. The only way to solve the problem is to provide her with one and fix the faulty physique all humans are born with.]'

Still, Aiden couldn't understand how was this anything but simple. 

'But… How would we… How would I do that? I have no idea what you want from me…' 

A soft sigh could be heard once again, as Enya began to slowly explain the situation in more detail.

'[Here, currently, you can't do anything. However… if you were to bring him over to your own plane, where you have absolute domain… Things would be different.]'

She paused for a second giving Aiden barely any time to process the grand proposal before she went even further.

'[By using the stronger Orb in your inventory, the one you took from the Mountain Orc, you could infuse it into her body. That would, in theory, act as the catalyzer and with all the energy coursing in her body added with the Orb's own, should be, in theory just enough to push her body over the limit and hopefully kickstart an evolution.]'

Her words were so outlandish, so outrageous, that Aiden couldn't fully comprehend it. How would this actually play out? Even if everything would work out as she described, what would the end result be? What would she evolve to? Is there even any route?

'I can't… I don't understand this at all… How could she possibly evolve? What would she become then?' 

'[I don't know, but it's either this, or you take back what she took from you, Aiden. Either way, you need to be quick and decide fast, as her time is rapidly running out.]' Enya warned, before turning silent. She gave her all the options, the choice was now on his shoulders.

As Aiden was busy deciding the ultimate fate of her Master and parental figure, he was completely oblivious of the company he shared this small alley with.

After the spectacular display of power and surge of energy that his body released and caused such havoc, several figures were closing in on his location, while one particular Masked Mistress was in the last verses of her chant.

As her hands completed the last inscription, and her spell was completed, suddenly the air around them blurred. In the next moment, their figure gradually vanished from sight and all common forms of sensory abilities as an invisible layer of protective energy formed a dome-shaped barrier around them. 

The spell wasn't a simple energy shield either, it didn't simply hide their presence from the nosy, inquisitive figures, but it actually created a separate subspace, a Pocket Dimension if you will. 

This empty, newly formed fabric of space and time as though it ran parallel with its parent, was actually different. Unless someone was capable of dimensional traversal would be unable to get to it, much less spot it.

To the outside world, the trio was virtually erased from the lands of Eora. Untraceable and invisible to anyone but a select few.

As the spell came into effect and The Masked Mistress saw the blurry, transparent wall that showed them the outside, she heaved a sigh of relief. 

'Huah…' She huffed, turning her attention to a figure that just appeared at the top of a nearby building. 'Just in time as well…'

She lightly chuckled, enjoying the deep frown that emerged on the man's face. 'Too late you fat little pig, next time you should come yourself, instead of sending one of your servants…'

Still, in the next moment, as a set of scarlet-colored almond-shaped pair of eyes blinked from the nearby shadows, even she donned a slightly sour expression behind her ever-present mask. She had no idea who… or perhaps what that creature was, as the shadow simply held no shape at all, but it was just a single pair of eerie eyes.

Regardless, it only appeared for a couple of blinks of time, quickly scanning the area, before it vanished just as abruptly as it came.

Once she felt they were safe, the Masked Mistress sighed once again, turning her attention back to the back of the youth and her unconscious sister…
