|A/N: *Open coffin and push out a new chapter*

Aglaia seeing the two foxes, immediately growled but kept her presence away from the two foxes.

Adder glanced at Aglaia with worried eyes, "Aglaia.."

Without a word, she stepped behind her master, Eira, her magic curling inward as she tried to suppress her reaction.

Worried, Adder reached out through their mind link. "Aglaia... they're—"

Aglaia growled to Adder, "Shut it, you being worried about me will hinder master."

"But-" Adder said, but was cut off by Aglaia, "Master is a priority Addy."

"Master is.." Aglaia softly spoke. "The priority."

Adder sighed and focused on the students.

The two foxes sat calmly amidst the chaos, an air of mischief clinging to them as they fixed their eyes on Castor.

The fiery red fox rose first, his voice laced with mockery. "Well, well... If it isn't a human boy... What do you wish to summon me and my brother here?"

Before Castor could answer, the icy blue fox suddenly appeared behind him. "Brother, this human boy..." he murmured, his tone curious and cold.

An icicle formed in an instant, shooting straight toward Castor.

Reacting swiftly, Castor deflected the magic with a burst of flame, the force of the collision pushed him backward. He used the momentum to retreat further, distancing himself from the two foxes.

"...Interesting," the icy fox said, now lounging lazily, his tail flicking with amusement.

The radiant red fox sauntered over, his tail swayed with elegance. He settled beside his brother, their bodies close but their heads tilted in opposite directions, as if mirroring one another in perfect-chaotic harmony.

Castor steadied his breath, the fading wisps of smoke curling around his fingertips from the clash of ice and flame.

"I didn't summon you for fun," he said, standing tall. "I came to form a pact."

At that, both foxes blinked in unison. The red one grinned wide, his sharp teeth gleaming. "A pact, he says," he echoed with a chuckle. "Tell me, little human, do you even know what it means to bind with us?"

The blue fox yawned, his breath crystallizing in the air. "He reeks of desperation. I'm not fond of it."

"Don't mock me," Castor replied, his voice firm. "I need your power—"

"When you trying to create a pact, don't forget about trust..." Eira's voice echoed in his mind, clear and calm, remembering what he taught.

"—and your trust." Castor finished, meeting both foxes' eyes without flinching.

The red fox's tails coiled happily. "Bold. I like it." He leaned in, his golden eyes glowing. "What will you offer, boy?"

Castor hesitated. Then, slowly, he drew a sigil in the air—a mutual familiar pact sigil in the air. It pulsed in the air.

Eira looking at the sigil, couldn't help but commented,

'Oh? What a beautiful sigil..'

"I offer my mana, willingly. And my oath. Aid me, and I'll serve as your ally in this realm."

The ice fox stood, eyes narrowing. It said with spite, "Ally? Or Master."

"An ally," Castor answered confidently. "Not a master who will chain you both."
