Chapter 28: WHO’S THAT POKEMON?
The Elements and Something out of expectations.
First, the Rock sprewing fountain.
Then, The Tornado of Doom.
Everything seemed that it was going perfect with no unusual reactions or explosions.
Aurelion had already experimented with most of the nature elements like fire, water, rocks, wind, lightning and ice.
OK, THESE WERE SUCCESSFUL. NOW, LET’S MOVE ON WITH PRIMORDIALS NOW. Aurelion thought.
Primordials? Which are those you must be thinking? To understand the concept better, we need to start with the basics of Elementalogy.
____
Elementalogy is the study of learning about elements which correspond or react when manifested along with the Mana.
This tells about their easier or higher affinities and classifies all Mana Elements into 3 broad term:
Nature Elements - These are the ones which are found in their rawest form in the nature. There are only four of them which are Fire, Water, Earth and Air(wind).
Advanced Elements - These are the elements formed after modifying chemical or physical properties or Intermixing of the four Nature elements. There are many and completely new ones can be formed too by the Magician depending on Talent and Affinity, some examples being, lightning, rock, ice etc.
Primordial Elements - There are only three of them and it is said that these three elements were the origin of Magic in the world. The three Primordial elements or the original elements are Holy, Dark and Void.
____
Aurelion manifested a bright white Spell Circle. It was radiating light and shrining the whole atmosphere. This was Holy Magic.
Aurelion cut the circle in half as usual to perform his combination Magic. He used the Holy circle as the left anchor and tried to fused it with his fire lance spell.
BAAM
A huge roar came from the Spell Circle. Orange smoke surrounded the environment. The smoke was soo strong that even Lyra and Rowan noticed it and came running.
THUD.... THUD... ROAR.
An audible roaring could be heard from the smokescreen now. Some sounds came, it felt like that scratching noises.
Lyra and Rowan came closer to the smoke and Aurelion.
"Your highness, is everything all right?" Lyra asked.
"We saw some fumes and foggy stuff come from here." Rowan added.
Aurelion turned to both of them and said.
"I’m not sure myself, let’s find it out together."
SWOOSH
Aurelion used basic wind magic to clear the smokescreen.
The wind whirled the smoke away, the scenery became cleared.
And THEN—
What they saw was shocking.
A orange - reddish creature.
It was about six feet from head to tail, his body layed closer to the ground in a streamline fashion. Its limbs were short but looked powerful, claws curved and dark as charred iron. The arms had some fire patches on it.
The head looked like a monitor lizard but in red color, intimidating Bright golden eyes and oval eyelids.
The back had rock spikes on it layed down in a straight line. It carried fine, overlapping scales that shimmered between deep ember red and blackened bronze depending on the light.
When it exhaled, the air shimmered in front of its nostrils and thin thread of smoke escaped, curling upwards.
Then, it breathed Fire. Not copious, just a Puff. But a real FIRE BREATH.
Everyone was completely shocked of what they just saw but Aurelion as usual was having his weird thoughts.
WHO’S THAT POKEMON?
IT’S PIKAC— I MEAN.
"A Salamander. Is your name Natsu by any chance?" He mumbled while riding with his thoughts.
"HOW DARE YOU COMPARE THIS HONOURABLE ONE WITH SUCH A INFERIOR VERMIN" the creature yelled in anger.
"IT SPOKE." Lyra shouted in surprise, her baton which was hanging in her police woman’s uniform dropped.
"Ha haa ahh haa" Aurelion laughed loudly.
"Your Highnessssss, are you seriously laughing right now?" Lyra shifted.
Rowan was just standing in daze unable to comprehend what’s happening in front of his eyes.
Aurelion grabbed Lyra’s hand and gave her a swirl.
"It’s ON, Lyra. It’s has started."
"What has started?? What are you even talking about, your highness?" Lyra started getting dizzy.
"My arc where I summon a Dragon has started. The Cliches has begun finally." Aurelion yelled with excitement.
NOW, I SHALL CONQUER THIS WORLD. MAKE ALL KINGDOMS FALL DOWN TO MY KNEES. GONNA RIDE OVER THE FAR SEAS AND JUNGLES.
Aurelion thought.
Lyra went completely dizzy from the continuous spinning and fell back after her hands slipped.
Aurelion then, stepped forward in the direction with his chest up, he put some gap between his legs and raised his left hand.
"My Familiar as your Master, I command you to take me for a ride in the sky." He said boasting while having his other hand on his chest.
"Yo, you are weird. You might have some screws lose in your brain." The creature replied.
The creature looked around all over the place, glancing left and right continuously. It looked like as if it was searching for something.
Finally, it stopped with the searching.
"I DON’T LIKE YOU." The creature said to Aurelion.
