Book 5: Chapter 26: Failed Training

The Grand Station

Allen frowns as he stands outside of the Grand Station, the home of the creator of magical realities, Artificios, alongside Scarlet. And both of them cant help but stare up at the massive building thats a mixture of a vast train station that goes all the way across old-world South America from one end to the other and a vast home. One meant for the owner of the station itself.

He glances at the girl who should soon be becoming his adopted daughter in just a week and finds her to be wearing her old ensemble of a black and red jacket over a black sports shirt and black pants. An outfit that matches well with her red eyes and black and red hair.

She looks more excited than Ive seen her in a whileThe origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.

Allen watches her for a second before turning to face the building again and saying, No reason to just stand here. Lets go in.

He sees Scarlet nodding her head once next to him before the two of them begin walking into the building.

Then again, were about to meet with the creator of magical realities. And the one who made her favorite video game.

That thought has a bemused smile stretching across his face.

One of the most well-known person on Earth now is excited over meeting the maker of her favorite video game. I wonder what the people would say about that if they heard it?

The two of them walk through the entrance with more than a few gazes directed at them. But they both ignore them with the people shouting in excitement. None of them move up to them despite their excitement, proving the respect both he and Scarlet have earned.

Eventually they find themselves suddenly disappearing into a rift at the center of the grand station before reappearing inside of a luxurious waiting room. One that people would often find in a grand mansion. And sitting on one side of it is the man himself.

You look confused, Artificios suddenly says, making Allen frown for a second. Guess she didnt tell you what were doing. He pauses to glance at Allen, at which point he sees the confusion quickly spreading across Allens face. Then he faces the screen again. The Princesss new Title-Bearing Mythic skill is incredibly dangerous and is a type of skill called a mutation skill. It completely changed her body to become the warden and prison for the most dangerous corruption in existence. One that can even devour reality itself.

Allens jaw drops open, and he turns to look at the screen, where he finds Scarlet casually walking around, seemingly testing the magical reality for a bit.

A plague that can devour reality itself? Is something like that really possible? And at her level?

Because of its power, and the minor detail of the plague in her being intelligent, I decided to help her with training it in a safe place, he continues, shocking Allen even further with the information about the plague being intelligent. So here we are, having her train her control in my magical reality.

Allen repeatedly glances between him and the screen before eventually asking, What if her plague manages to damage the artificial reality?

Artificios simply waves his hand, saying, Theres no way it would be able to damage my artificial reality. Its not a normal reality, and Im certain its too strong for-

He cuts off when Scarlet begins to release a strange glowing red blood that immediately begins to eat away at the air around her, making holes in reality appear. Holes that reveal strange pitch black voids on the other side.

Oh shit, oh shit, ooooh shiit, Artificios exclaims, his calm having shattered as he snaps his fingers again, leading Scarlet to reappear again in front of the two before landing on the ground with her legs on either side of her. What the fuck is wrong with that plague?!

Scarlet just blinks in surprise and some disorientation at the sudden shift in location.

Meanwhile Allen stares at her in shock, then at the magical reality, to which he points and says, Uh, the plague is still there.

Both Scarlet and Artificios look up at the screen before the man mutters one more time, Oh shit
