My Servant System



Cali just grinned as she stared at the towering sapphire skinned Fiend, her eyes shining an eery shade of pink as the mana pouring from her fingers thickened into a mist, which began to spread throughout the entire room.

Contrasting Cali, Tza'Delira frowned and noticed that the black mana that was the source of their strength was being thinned out, eaten away by the pink mana and slowly replaced, connecting to the threads that stretched off of the Fiend's onyx gemstones.

Tza'Delira let out a grunt as all of the black threads were snapped, not allowing Cali's mana to consume their own whilst also opting for a new strategy - a bold strategy, and one that made Cali's grin fade somewhat as the Fiend flashed forwards and raised a hand, swiping down at the pink dome and scoring a deep gash across the surface of the protective barrier.

"Tch... I'll give you props on your Lust Mana; I hadn't anticipated that it'd be that strong yet, but..! Few of you Sla whores are capable fighters! So what will you do now, Sla'Caligo?!"

Swiping at the barrier again, Tza'Delira aimed a demented grin at Cali before glancing at me, adding "Oh, but I don't even need to kill you, no? I just need to wrench the soul out of your mortal whore to weaken you... and then I'll have an Arch Fiend groveling at my feet!"

For a split second those silver eyes made my heart lurch around inside my chest, but a deep breath and shifting of focus made it far easier to deal with as I turned to stare at Vitra, who was still grinning like everything was under control and assuredly in her hands.

"Does that not go for you as well..? I might not be the greatest at mathematics, but-"

Canceling the wind barrier around the room, I glanced at the door and watched as the other Wisps filtered inside, their eyes scanning everything before they instantly slipped into Cali's pink dome, joining us in the 'safety' it provided before beginning to formulate a plan with the other Wisp.

And besides them, I could feel the one I was bound to drawing ever closer, and alongside her was someone who would certainly sway the tide of this battle into our favor.

"-I do believe we have more people, and more people of a stronger caliber than you? All we need to do is grab her, no?"

Tza'Delira snarled at my words, the Fiend glowering at me before stabbing their hand into the barrier, trying to cleave it open.

"Who?! Who do you think you have that can go against ME?! You're nothing but a puny, insignificant, weakling of a mortal! All of you! Before me, a Fiend?! You can do NOTHING!"

Letting out a roar, the entire room was blanketed in black mana once more, and Cali sneered as she hissed "No you don't!"

Watching as Tza'Delira took a step back, Cali raised her hands and sent her mana straight towards their chest, a beam of compressed pink energy impacting Tza'Delira's torso and chewing into their flesh, devouring what was in front of it.

The Fiend only grunted as the beam continued to bore into their chest, though a sickening grin was on their lips, dark blue liquid trickling out from the corner of their mouth as they muttered "[Appear]"

Cali let out a curse as the black mana began to coalesce around the room, bundling into humanoid shapes and solidifying after a second, turning into inky specters with eyes just as silver as their patron.

"Phantasms! Don't let them cut you!"

Like their patron, these Phantasms were spindly creatures, their arms far too long for their bodies, to the point that their knuckled fingers scraped against the ground, scoring small gouges in the floorboards as their claws raked across the wood, displaying their incredible sharpness.

"Enjoy~! Unkillable, immortal creatures of raw ambition given form! Now our numbers have evened out, haven't they little pup~?"

Instead of replying, I unsheathed my Protective Fang and Shatter Fang, the two daggers still reigning supreme as my go to weapons as I stared at the approaching Phantasms.

The Wisps beside me unsheathed their own weapons, displaying a diversity as they retrieved axes, swords, clubs, and even a pair of nunchucks, each of which had been made of colored metals that matched their attunements.

My Wisp glanced at me and asked "What is their estimated arrival time?", to which I replied "A minute. Seems the guards are adamant at being good at their jobs..."

Nodding, the Wisp turned back towards the Phantasms and said "Well... try and make it to Vitra. That necklace is the crux of all of this..."

Raising my daggers, I glanced at the Phantasms again before shrugging, deciding that I could place my trust on the Wisps once more as I began to rush forwards, weaving around the misty amalgamations of a monster that were the Phantasms and making my way towards Vitra, who had begun to gather mana once more as she noticed the shift of the battle.

Like before, the Foxkin shot bolts of mana towards me at extreme speeds, but a quick set of buffs on my end made them far more manageable than before, and I could hear the Wisps behind me battling against the Phantasms, keeping them occupied for the time being as we began to mount a proper counterattack.

Tza'Delira wasn't too happy about this, but it would seem that maintaining the Phantasms required most of the Fiend's excess mana, and the Fiend couldn't spare more as Cali slowly got accustomed to her own mana once more, slowly but surely switching from the defensive to the offensive.

All we needed to do now was maintain a status quo for a minute or so before our help arrived, and that would be when everything shifted into our favor heavily, but until then...

Erecting a barrier with Protective, I blocked a bolt of mana before elongating Shatter, desiring more reach as I began to cut into the bolts, overloading them with Ice Mana and protecting myself further from Vitra's magics.

Of course, I knew better now that the Foxkin was just as tricky as her race would suggest, so I kept my senses tuned in as much as I could as I began to make my way over to her.
