"Calm down!" Noticing the changes on the girl's face, I rushed forward. Just in time. Were I to be a single moment later, Teria would slip out of my grasp. Only thanks to my timely reaction I managed to wrap my hands around her waist, before pulling her down to the ground. "If we kill them, this entire mission will turn far harder!" I knew how hard it was to remain calm after obtaining a fresh injury. For this girl, any attempts at stopping her could easily make her turn on me, recognizing my actions as…-

Thump. The sound that my feet made when gently touching the ground was of no significance on its own, yet it held great meaning for me in particular. Because by landing on the stable ground right now, the boring part of my journey finally came to an end. "Show-off!" Landing without even a hint of grace, the winged girl's legs stuck several centimeters into the soft ground before her momentum was finally gone. Ever since I managed to pull that mana phasing off, our relationship changed. While just the…

Shock. The shock was the only word capable of describing what I felt when I released my attraction. Unleashing all the repulsion my mentality could handle against the nearby ground, I vectored it behind myself and at a steep angle. Already moving on a parabolic path, I only wanted to increase my speed while regaining some attitude at the same time. Yet, the insane tightness that I felt all over my body when inertia struck back made me feel as if I would never be able to walk straight ever again. Feeling…

Out of all the things that travelling through the different worlds have taught me, there was one thing that annoyed me the most. Maybe because I was comparing my own adventures to what I expected an adventure would otherwise look like. Maybe it was because I read too many young-adult novels in my life, changing the expectations from realistic to idealistic. But this one single thing, constantly reminded me how reality didn't confront my own wishes. And it was time. It took a long time to travel to our…

"Okay, let's make the first stop." After just a few moments of trying to compete with the girl for the speed at which we could travel, I have no other choice but to ultimately concede defeat. But rather than my pride shattering over this loss, I took this defeat as a learning experience. In the end, my ability to fly was just an effect of my witchcraft, something that wasn't designed to make me fly in the first place. On the other hand, not only was this girl born with wings, making her a natural ruler of…

"So, are you ready?" Ever since the idea appeared in my mind for the very first time, I knew that getting this girl to travel along with me would be a bad one. Starting with the problem of sheer delay born from a lack of the girl's ability to move as rapidly as I could on my own, her appearance could easily scare scores of people. And I didn't wish for this kind of attention at all. "To leave everything I know and love just because someone was too conceited to admit that they were wrong? No, for…

"Honestly…" Uttering just a single word of complaint, I softened my fall with a sudden outburst of repulsion. Yet, even then, just the sheer change of momentum was enough for my bones to painfully twist, almost depriving me of my limbs. Deaccelerating just as quickly I gained the momentum after the attack, I quickly regained both the focus and the footing for the battle. "Are you honestly going to just throw your lives away for nothing?" Landing on my legs, I bent my knees a bit to soften the impact.…

"What now?" To say that the prince was surprised by my question would not give justice to the weird face he made while hearing what I asked about. "Don't tell me…" Casting a quick glance at me, his face tensed up. "Yeah, that's exactly what I need to know. But just for you to know, while I'm not sure about the place myself, I will know once I reach it whether you guided me properly." Given that I showed a huge chunk of my abilities to the man, there was a chance he would send me off to the literal end…

"Do you really think that I will give it to you? After doing so much to obtain it?" Taking a look at the girl flying just right behind me, I almost fell down to the ground due to the shock making it a bit harder to control my repulsion. "I don't care what you did for it, but you will return it to me now." This time, there was no fake bravado behind the girl's words. Just an ultimate dedication and determination. Without any further ado, the girl rushed forward. Clang! Her sword bounced away when…

It was hard to tell whether the girl followed my words out of fear or due to some other reasons. But it wasn't hard to activate the recurring stone in my hand as soon as she slipped outside of its effective range. Once again, after a few moments of charging, a slight tremor exploded outwards from the stone. At first, nothing seemed to have happened. That is if one didn't count how everyone in the area affected by the coming disaster suddenly froze in place. It seemed that both humans and those mutants…
