Spectral Regalia

Ch 47: Feelings of Advancement

Avrin gazed at Asura as he kept thinking. Asura was in a sort of hunched position as a lion would be but it looked somewhat weird considering his body shape was that of a hulking humanoid. Avrin then spoke "Asura, for now you are to remain here. Do not bother attacking the creatures that are dominant here as well as the orcs.

If you need to eat then kill and eat. Do not do it for fun. I am tending to something and I think it better if you do not appear for now"

Asura gave a soft growl as he spoke "But I like hunting and fighting... Why must I remain quiet..This is my territory now." Avrin frowned "Do not delude yourself creature. When I return, me and you will be leaving this demented swamp. I also refuse to allow a Spectral creature to live in such conditions."

Asura was somewhat confused. He felt Avrin was denying him lands but also felt Avrin had something bigger in store for him so he nodded. "Ok master..I will go to my lair and rest..How will I find you again?"

Avrin began to think to himself. "Good question. We will meet in this area in 2 days. Just emit your energy and I will surely discover you. We are attuned to each other now"

Asura frowned slightly as he began to walk off. The swamp had gotten quiet. The birds that were chirping as well as the other creatures and insects turned and looked "Master, why must I go now? You promised me. I hope you keep your word"

Avrin chuckled softly "Don't feel rushed. It isnt the time yet and there are people who would be afraid of you. Like the orcs"

Asura began to think as he nodded and walked off while talking to himself "Orcs... Oh yeah, they tasted funny" His voice began to drift as he continued to talk to himself before his figure vanished into the tree line.

Avrin continued to gaze in that direction before dissipating his augmented eye "That creature is going to give me a lot of problems in the future. I can feel it...Nothing heavy discipline won't fix.

Besides I should get ba-" Before he finished he felt the presence of a figure behind him. He turned to see it make its way out. "Hmph...There you are.." The feminine voice spoke out. It was none other than Syrana.

Avrin began to walk past her. "If I remember correctly, I could have sworn I said I would return tomorrow. Were you hoping to catch another glimpse of me bathing? Sorry to say but I wouldn't bathe in these waters even if they were the last liquid on Seleria." He joked but this made Syrana turn red with embarrassment and clench her hands.

"I..Idiot. I came to let you know that I discussed things with the orcs. It seemed that the creatures of this area have been unsettled and I came to warn you about it." Avrin blinked and then gave a sly grin as he stopped and looked at her.

"You were worried about me then...Well don't I feel honored." He gave a soft chuckle to which syrana huffed and folded her arms under her breasts, causing them to lift slightly. Any normal man would be drooling by now.

"I was being cautious...Besides, I have better things to do then save you so I took the easier way of warning you." Avrin turned around and began walking off in the direction they had both come from. Syrana also following. Avrin spoke "No need. I've already handled the matter anyway."

This made Syrana tilt her head curiously as she spoke "What do you mean? You met the creature responsible?" Avrin nodded before speaking "More or less. What would you say if I just happened to meet the leophat from the forest"

Syrana stopped. Her footsteps were somewhat noticeable before, but Avrin felt them quiet down. He also stopped and turned to look at her. He was surprised at what stance she had taken, Eclipse had already been drawn.
