Kiada, Blood Servant System Reborn - Chapter 108

Mei was the only one that wasn’t feeling good this time, but the crackers and drink helped her make it fine. The two hours went by fast, and before I knew it, Braum was back to get me up.

“Come, I’ll give you two a ride to the island when you’re ready to go. The only thing is that I will need you to wait until we give you the signal with a red flag to start, okay?”

“Yes, that’s fine. Come, Alana, let’s get up,” I said while shaking her gently.

Lesha was already stirring, and she turned her face up to kiss me. Then, she pulled away to stretch out her arms, standing up.

I looked over at the feeling of fidgeting. Alana was already pulling out from under my arm, so I let her go, and Lesha gave me a hand up.

“Thank you, darling. Don’t get into too much trouble while I am gone, okay?” I asked, but Lesha pulled me down into a kiss and held our faces close.

“Be careful and please come back to me safe,” Lesha said and then kissed me again before letting me go.

“We will be fine, but I get to nap on you on the way back or my neck is going to get a kink in it,” I said to Lesha while turning away, and heading back over to where Braum was waiting with a very nervous looking Alana.

“Don’t worry. I am a lot tougher than I look, just relax for now. How are we getting out there?” I asked looking over at the treeless, and small deserted island.

“I am going to take you. You just need to follow me down this rope ladder to the boat we just lower. I will take you over to the island, and then I will come back and we will sail a bit back, and then give you the flag,” Braum explained to me, and I nodded my head.

I waved to the others, and the girls came and hugged me before I left down the ladder. Once all three of us were in the boat, I looked around, but I couldn’t see any oars.

“How does this boat move?” I asked Braum, and he smiled at me and the boat started to move.

“My Mana controls water, so I can do things like this,” Braum said as what felt like a giant hand pushed us forward.

I had to grab onto Alana so she didn’t tip over, and the trip over to the island was quick. Braum waved to us as he left, he had given me a knowing look that said, don’t forget.

The two of us walked out onto the bare and sandy island together, and I held her hand. I knew this would be scary for her, so when we got to the center, I sat down and got her to sit in front of me.

I positioned myself so I could see when they got far enough away and hoisted the red flag. Braum had already made it back to the ship, and they were sailing away.

I focused on Alana, and took in a deep breath, and let it out.

“Do you see how I am doing this? Can you take deep breaths, and then let them out?” I asked Alana.

“Mmhm,” Alana said, and she started to do as I instructed.

The ship had gone a bit overboard in how far they went. I was barely able to see the flag they had hoisted, but now it was time.

I opened myself up and sought out the flame, and I found it with no trouble. It now always seemed to be just below the surface, waiting for me to call upon it.

I started to drink in the light, and my body because to glow softly, but the intensity was growing in strength. I reached forward and behind Alana’s neck, but she grabbed my arm with wide eyes.

“Are you sure? You’re glowing so bright? Why?” Alana tried to ask, but I put my forehead against her.

“I am here with you and you can’t hurt me, and if you do, it will be okay. I told you, I am tough!” I said as I unclasped the choker and put it in my pocket.

I wasn’t sure what was going to happen, but I was prepared to react no matter what happened. So, I was very surprised to see a small orange spiky lizard floating in the air.

[Now that is interesting, where did that girl see a dragon to be able to create a familiar in its image?]

I wasn’t sure, but the look the little beast was giving me was just short of a squint-eyed stare. I glared back at the beast, letting my anger pool out at all the trouble this little pipsqueak was causing this girl.

The dragon’s eyes got big, but then it started to brighten.

“No Firburg! Don’t hurt Miss K,” Alana tried to say but it was too late.

“Shield/Dleihs!” I called out, standing up quickly, and I was just barely able to shape a shield around the dragon before it exploded.

I started to layer the shield, no longer needing to call out the spell as I summon more. I could feel the inner walls breaking, but I didn’t stop.

“You have to control him! Word won’t work, you need to find the blue fire inside of you! Sit down and close your eyes. No matter what, keep focused, even if my shields fail!” I called out to the scared-looking Alana.

“I will try, but I think we should stop Miss K, or you are going to get hurt!” Alana cried out to me.

I was fighting a losing battle, and I was already burning Platelets to create a shield but holding off on the Lymphocyte. Once my shields fail, the Basophils Service would activate, and burn on its own, slowing time down enough to let me have time to increase my healing ability tenfold.

Alana was on the ground, squeezing her eyes shut, but I was starting to have doubt. There was no way to train her to find the flame if the stone blocked magic; this was the only way.

A trial by fire and flame, or nothing.
