Mylas Talk

Myla: Hey Eric, will you be free at noon?

I read the message and reply.

Me: Yeah, where do you want to meet?

Myla: Can you meet me at the parks entrance.

Me: Yeah I'll see you there.

I put my phone away and check the time. 10:18AM. Okay, so I've got an hour and a half to kill. What to do, what to do... I could go forge a new sword. I have the Magic Steel from Kallen. The Core from Kagiyama will also help. But I don't think I have time for that. I know, lets go to the park and Meditate. I walk to the park and enter the clearing. After making sure no one is watching I set an hour long timer and start Meditating. I start thinking of my Darkness School. If it's true that I created it, then I'm the only one who can use it as of now. With that in mind I want to get more skills and spells that use that tree. So now I'm thinking of darkness taking shapes. Forming into chains, swords, bows and shields. Once I feel my phone start vibrating I open my eyes and see I have two new notifications.

New Skill: Dark Weapon Lvl

This spell allows the caster to make darkness take the form of a desired weapon. The weapon will stay in effect for as long as the caster has mana. The weapons deals 75% of the casters Intelligence as melee damage. MP Cost: 100

New Skill: Dark Chains Lvl 1

This spell allows the user to manipulate shadows and darkness to create chains. The chains can do anything the caster wishes, weather it's binding a target or attaching to a building swinging from it. MP Cost: 25 (may change depending on how chains are used)

I can't help but smile thinking about how I'll use these spells. I stand and see I have about fifteen minutes before noon. I walk to the entrance, taking my time. After a few minutes I get there and see Myla. She's wearing a cute white summer dress and holding a picnic basket. She's looking down the street for me. I get a bad idea and use Stealth to sneak up on her. I walk up to her but she turns around when some wind blows her dress up.

"O-Oh Eric, when um when'd you get here?" She asks flustered.

"I was here enjoying some scenery while I waited." I say, I still don't fully trust her and Hino's guilds yet so I'm keeping as much as I can a secret. "What about you, did I keep you waiting?"

"No, I just got here myself. I've just been stuck in the habit since I was little to arrive early to meetings." She steps toward me and blushes and is about to say something before I cut her off.

"You look cute by the way." I see her smile. "So what did you want to meet me for?" I ask her.

"O-Oh um follow me, it's hard to talk about in public." I nod and follow her. She leads me to the small forest in the park. We start walking down a familiar path.

"By any chance are we going to the clearing up ahead?" I ask her as we turn left down a untraveled path that looks like a dead end.

"Yeah, I'm shocked you know about it. Hino was shocked when I showed her and told her that almost no one knows about it." She chuckles remembering it. I step ahead of her and push away the tall grass and shrubbery that block the clearing from view. Myla thanks me and steps forward.

"So why are we here?" I ask her.

"I just wanted to talk. Oh but I made food to, have you eaten lunch yet?" I shake my head no. "G-Good. oh I mean um, I just didn't want it to go to waste. I hope you like it, I'm not much of a cook." She says, nervous and blushing. I smile and use Observe on her, while she's laying down a red checkered blanket, to see if my hunch is right.

Myla Garden Lvl 17, Class: Paladin, Title: Heiress to the Silver Garden Guild, RP: 205, Hearts: 4

HP: 267/320 MP: 107/165

"Myla are you hurt?" I ask seeing she's missing 53 HP.

"D-Did you Observe me?" She asks nervously.

"Yeah, sorry it's just a habit of mine now." I say praising my past self for not telling them about the RP and Hearts I see.

"It's fine, I'm just not use to it. I was training with my father earlier but he doesn't hold his punches. But don't worry, he knows my limits and is careful. So despite always coming out with bruises its never anything more than that. And I do learn a lot from it."

"Do you want me to heal you? Sorry if that offends you. I don't know if you have a reason why you haven't asked someone else to." She turns to me and smiles.

"Thank you but I think of this as part of my training." After seeing the confused look on my face she explains. "I don't have it healed because I want to build up my pain tolerance. It's not like your enemies will stop and let you adjust to the pain during combat. Anyway let's eat!" She sits down and pats a spot next to her. I sit down and she starts pulling out containers of food. "I wasn't sure what you liked so I just went and brought the ingredients." She opens up each container and tells me what each is. "So I've brought bread, chicken, ham, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes. Then for after I brought an apple pie."

"Thanks Myla, I don't know where to start."
