Becoming a Mystic

## Story

Shadow starts to use his blitz skills increasing his speed and strength. His body was starting to tire but he pushed through this and focused on getting stronger. After a while he had to stop and take a breather.

Kryis and her team are about half the way to the town when a person in a doctors outfit steps forward and goes to talk to Ingrid who then doesn't notice the person or recognize him then he steps forward and says my name is Nasir I am a Mystic and my class in Doctor and I fight using Needles and Darts and he says my abilities are strong and I was sent her to help Ingrid remember her past as a Mystic that is when he touches Ingrid and then she remembers that she is a mystic and then remembers her powers and then noticed that she was missing one and then she remembered her Unique Ability called Mystical Awakening it lets her absorb all damage done to her and converts it to HP and MP. She then remembered that the next Mystic she must recruit is a Male Thief and he doesn't look human so she says to the team we need to hurry to the town so we can locate and find the new Mystic that I need to find Kryis said fine lets go. That is when Nasir joins them and stays with them to make sure they are safe.

Shadow finishes his breather and starts to train using his all out blitz and feels a pull from inside the Blade of Origins he can feel a new power filling him and then hears a voice explaining how to use this new power. He lifts his left hand to see silver lightning dancing around his fingers. He flicks his wrist and the tree he points at is struck with a bolt of silver lightning obliterating the tree and its roots.

Kryis and her team make it to the town and Ingrid immediately senses the 4th Mystic she has to recruit and that is when the whole group goes to the area and sees a Kobald in dire need or life that is when Ingrid noticed that the Kobald was the Thief and then said that it's name was Kiro that is when the Mystic Lord came and gave some of his blood to save Kiro and took him to the Mystic World where it only took minutes in Kryis world for him to come back but minutes in Kryis world is months in the Mystic World. So upon Kiro's Return he joined along with Ingrid and the others and Nasir agreed to stay with the team and look out for everyone. Then upon getting Kiro and him joining the team Ingrid saw that the next person was Kryis and knew she had to be there to make sure she could become a Mystic.

Kryis and her team after getting Kiro agree to look for more allies before going inside the castle.

Shadow keeps training with his new skill and his blitz attacks. After about half a day he sits down and catches his breath. He looks around at all the trees that are now missing branches or are out right destroyed. He leans back and then sighs. He know that his current power still won't match up to the man he fought and lost to.

Kryis looks around the town and then notices that there are other people that can join here but not till after talking to the leader of the town but there is one that can join and it's a girl with similar powers to Kryis. Kryis knew there was something different about this girl but still wanted to make sure she and her got along and that they where able to do whatever but first Kryis wanted to make sure that this girl was able to keep a steady amount of toughness as she noticed that this person was missing many of her abilities so she wanted to protect her for now till she is able to protect herself more and that she can regain her powers.

Kryis asked the girl for her name and she then said my name is Jilem and I am also a Summoner like you but I am starting fresh again so looking for someone and will wait to join until he does.

Shadow closes his eyes and lets his mind drift away as he falls asleep. His dreams are troubled with images of all of Kryis's team killed in various ways. Each one killed by a blurry figure.

Kryis and her team along with Jilem walk into the Castle and talk to the ruler of that town he tells Kryis that he knows she is a Summoner but that doesn't matter if she wants his help she will have to fight his strongest General and live. Kryis accepts the challenge and then sees her opponent he is a General with Paladin (Holy) based abilities. He lets her fight him as the duel is weapons only Kryis uses her whip and he uses his Sword but he does alot of damage to her and weakens her in one turn then upon Kryis's Turn he countered her attack defeating her and severely wounding her upon this happening the Mystic Lord appears and takes Kryis with him and that is where she becomes a Mystic as well as learning how to use Swords and Upon her defeating Zamza in her training match against him she learned how to Summon Sharm the Shadow Shifter Summon and it can change into anything but prefers to stay as a bird or griffon. But for Kryis he is an all black griffon bird like Summon. That can Glide and split into many smaller versions of himself doing damage based on everyone that lands.

Then upon Kryis completing her training and becoming a better Summoner she is given the Mystic Sword that all Mystics receive but mostly never use.

Shadow wakes up later and warps back to the ship. He sits down and starts to meditate. He takes his mental link with Kryis and blocks it so that he can focus for a while. He noticed she was changed before doing so but didn't let it distract him.

Once she receives the Mystic Sword Kryis's Lodging in the Mystic World was unlocked and her house at her base changed to resemble it as well then she appeared back at the Castle and right in front of the General and then told him bring it on he felt mocked so the general who attacked out of anger was taken by surprise when Kryis used the Mystic Sword and was able to block all his hits and then countered him and in one turn knocked him out then said nice try but I won't lose twice to anyone.

The General got up and the ruler said I guess you win so here you can have some people and I will tell the people in town as well to help you if they want so I am going to let you pick the people you want to take with you but also you will have to wait a bit as they are all not here and I believe you should have a choice to choose from all of them and then the ruler said don't worry the rest will join before you head back.

Shadow was deep in his meditation when he felt the presence of something very strong not to far from where he had felt Kryis a while ago. He stands up and turns in that direction and starts to walk with his hand on his blade hilt. It takes him half the time Kryis took to get to the town but he stays outside of it for a while.

Kryis told the ruler she will choose 9 now and the take the rest later he agreed to that and then said which 9 though and Kryis said I will choose myself and if they are not here I will go to the prison at the bottom of the castle to find them he said that is fine so who do you choose for your first 3 Kryis pointed at the General she defeated and another older general as well as the elf white mage.

The 3 people she picked stepped forward and she started with the general she defeat he said my name is Tamaki and I Classed as a General but I am a Paladin (Holy) Kryis told him nice to meet you and then the ruler said wise choice who is next that is when Kryis choose the Oldest General a male named Douglas who uses Twin Swords and is very powerful as well then king told her another great choice then Kryis choose the female elf White Mage named Melia who uses Books as a way to heal.

The ruler said so next is the next three but lets wait a bit so you can get to know the 3 you already choose so Kryis did get to know them and she sensed Shadow near by but then said we should be wise on the people we choose that is when we will be able to come back for the others.

Shadow walked around outside the village. He was looking for the power that he could feel. He entered the village and still couldn't find the source. He glared around at anyone who looked at him with hate. His hand never left the hilt. He was holding this power would lead him to Anilex so he could fight him again.

Kryis walks back in and chooses 3 more people she chooses the female General Sonja, the male Gnome Warrior Gavrin and then she chooses the Unique Character Lily the Flightless Bird and she is a Merchant with the the best goods out beating Melody and the only other one that didn't appear yet.

The Ruler said you took all my generals smart choices but don't worry they don't train weaklings so we are safe. Kryis nodded in agreement then along with the 3 new people she left the room and then spoke to them for a bit while feeling Shadow move into town and another presence in the town as well.

A few people ran up and tried to attack Shadow. He slides to the side and slams the flat of his blade into their chest knocking them out of his way. He hears the gasps and can feel the power seem to turn towards him. He focuses on it and see someone looking at him in the distance.

Kryis chooses 2 from the room a Wolf Bounty Hunter named Zieg and a Noble named Gracyne then she said let me check your prison he lets her and she is escorted by Tamaki and when they get there she points to the Bird Clan boy in the cell and says him Tamaki opened up the cell and unchained him and picked him up and carried him to the throne room and the ruler gives the boy food and then lets him leave on the condition that he joins Kryis on her Journey and stays with her the boy agrees and introduces himself as Xernin the Bird Clan Wizard he joins up and once he is able to walk the ruler says to Kryis I won't kill anyone in my prison until you have been given the chance to see if they are your allies or not you have my word and Kryis thanked the ruler then they walked out and they all said now it's time to recruit people in town as well Kryis said true lets find as many as possible as we will be coming back later on and we will get more then.

Kryis and her team walk outside of the Castle and to her Surprise Shadow is in town and look at someone from a far.

"What do you know of a man named Anilex. He put me down and I'm hunting him now. If anyone here knows anything about him come forward. I don't care who you are. I want him and those who work with him." He yells while glaring at the figure in the distance.

Kryis has Jilem along with Ingrid and the others to go to the entrance of the town and wait for her to see what the problem is with that figure that Shadow is looking at so she walks down letting all her allies go to safety before even thinking of approaching the figure.

Shadow looks at Kryis and then says " don't get involved. This is my fight. If I fail then you can take over." Silver lightning surrounds him and he focuses it onto his hand and smiles " answer me or you will feel the pain of lightning through your chest" he starts to move towards the figure. He feels a new power rising from this being but ignore it.

Kryis justs stand there and watches but makes sure that the civilians are not harmed.

Shadow keeps walking but when he gets closer the being vanishes. He stop and spins trying to find them. He can't see them and the power signature he was following vanishes. A laugh echos in his head and he growls before shaking his head and walking toward the ships again. " Who ever they are I hate them".

Kryis checks and see that there are 4 people she can get now that are in the town that she can recruit so she looks for them and finds the first 2 of them in the Library. Kryis talks to the Girl and then her older brother a Mercenary walks over and sees Kryis talking to her and he asks why she is here and that is when Kryis says to recruit you two to join us so we can have as many allies as possible the girl says your Kryis the Summoner I have heard about you and that is when her brother said oh yeah I remember to well if you really want us we will join so Kryis says it will help us alot then they say my our names are Tamara and Tyson. Kryis welcomes them then walks out in search for the next 2 people.

Shadow is half way out of the town and stops. He turns back and then says " Kryis I'm not staying with you when this is done. I have to hunt this man down and finish what we started. Anyways I don't see you needing me after this day. I'm just taking up space. I can't even hold ground agains most of your new friends. They were right I'm not needed when you bring peace. I'm a warrior at heart so I will see you around." He then turn and continues on his way.

Kryis before walking outside of the Library hears Shadow's Voice then she just shakes her head then walks out and bumps into the next recruit the Female Reaper. Kryis tells her sorry and the girl says don't worry about it my name is Ella nice to meet you Kryis says likewise my name is Kryis that is when the girl said wow it's really you the Summoner let me help you please Kryis accepted her help and then let her join.

Shadow froze and sighed he could feel the power but it was different now. It felt closer to that of one of the people that Kryis was recruiting but tainted. He knew he was going to regret this but he turn back and went back just in case he was needed.

Kryis then sees the next recruit and walks over to it alone and sees that it won't hurt anyone but still wants him to feel safe so she goes there alone and sends Tamara, Tyson, and Ella ahead to the gate with the others then she speaks to this winged person that says he is a Blessing Bird and can become a bird and give extra turns to help out his allies he says I hope I can be of some real help and Kryis says you definitely will be lets go and make sure everyone can set up camp out here for the night before we head off to get the the next destination the Blessing Bird says my name is Reyon and I am glad I meet someone like you but how many places are between us and the Summoner Village and the Guardian Village with it Kryis said it seems 2 more before we can go to them gather who we need and if a Summon is near by we can get them as well because when we get to the Summoner Village there will be older Summoners and they will have the ability to pass on there there spirits and become a whole new summon.

Everyone was surprised to hear that then they said lets just focus with what is at hand and that is to set up camp.
