I could feel my cells burns, feedings on those foreign bolts of energies in the most agonizing growth spurs.

"G.o.d d.a.m.n it, can"t it fix one for all! I grow to two meters, shrink off twenty centimeters and now my body goes through an accelerated growth spur!"

-Hold on buddy, this should be nearly done!-

"Do you have any idea what happens?"

-If I were to guess from your overall state, I would say that the d.a.m.ned vampire has triggered a temporal jump for you, your body was forced to growth older.-

"f.u.c.king great! How much?" I couldn"t keep in my annoyed growl.

-At least two years.-

"I will lose two years of lifespan just like that?"

-Don"t seem so, your body is feeding on an external source, so you will only be two years older, nothing lost. Brace yourself, were nearly done.-

Looking at my feet, I could see a similar greenish oval portal growing larger, no it is me who was nearing it. the second my feet touch it, time seems to froze and pop-ups appear.

"CS?"

-Right here, buddy! The new evaluation is based on the human limit, each of them is at 1000, past that, you are stronger than a peak human. The V in the front is the number of times you breakthrough that limit. It not additional but exponential, so you"re stronger than five peak humans. Regretfully, it won"t be worth much in One Piece, those monster are way higher.-

"What about the skills?"

-You will only see that on what you can improve. The rest are now completely fused with your soul.-

"Good to knows..."

"That d.a.m.n vampire, better see what he wants." I couldn"t help to sigh, not only he sent me there but also was able to send me a message. Until now, no one was able to know about it, less interact with it.

{[Hey there!

"CS?"

-Yeah, I can"t found any memories.-

"He is right, I still see them as fictional characters, maybe that way I can finally fully live those lives."

-We can only hope, we can only hope.-

####################################

Time retakes its normal course and his feet sink in the portal. At the same time, Alex lost all related memories of this, only knowing that he could travel to different worlds in order to influence fate in a better direction.

When he finally pa.s.ses past the portal, he was few feet above the ground, falling once the gravity retakes its right. Unbothered from a fall only that high, he takes a look around, trying to see where he was sent.

Behind him was a large tower linked to four of the smaller tower, each with different tiles colors. Below him was a large group standing around two standing girls.

While each was looking at her with somewhat expecting and mocking gaze, he falls in front of her, at the same time when she produces an explosion, kicking up a large cloud of dust that hides his arrival.

Taking advantage of the heavy cloud, he trans.m.u.tes his clothes in a simple white shirt, black pants similar to the other boys, less the ridiculous mantle.

"Thankfully, I don"t have growth that much, my boots are still good."

###################################

An hour before, the entire of the second-year cla.s.s was lead outside by professor Colbert in order for them to summon the familiar that will follow them all their lives. Taking light support on his staff, the gla.s.s wearing, balding professor look at them with a serious but kind gaze.

"Alright everyone, today is an important day as well as the first exam of your second year, the invocation of the familiar that would accompany you all your life like a member of your family.

In the crowd, a redhead and dark-skinned girl with a generous body, suddenly appear behind a small little girl with pink hair.

"I can"t wait to see what kind of familiar you will show us." A cat-like smile on her face, annoying the other.

"Leave me alone."

Thus start the invocation ritual, each student with their own interpretation of the incarnation they wish for their familiar to take.

One of the students attracts the attention of some when he summons a purple ball with a unique eye and long eyelash, a zig-zag tail sprouting behind it.

" A Bugbear!" Few were astonished at the sight of the creature while his summoner immediately cuddles the strange creature.

Unwilling to be left behind, a blond hair kid holding a rose couldn"t wait anymore that he wasn"t the center of attention, stride forward, and start his chant.

"Next!"

" It"s me, Guiche Gramont, that would invoke the greatest familiar of this academy history, bring...."

"Hai, hai, we don"t have all day, go down with it, boy."

Professor Colbert cut the boy before he could be lost in his monolog.

"As your wish professor Colbert! ô Brimir, great primogenitor guiding us, bring forth the slave that will be worthy of the great bronze Guiche!"

As his word resound, the ground starts to quake, a clod of earthrise at his feet, before a large mole with an inverted blue triangle on its forehead and large warm beady eyes sparkle at the boy.

While the two looked at each other, professor Colbert looks for the other student.

"Mm, Does everyone had to summon it Familiar?"

"Miss Valliere and I still don"t, professor Colbert." A smirk rose on the red-haired"s lips as she looks at says, girl.

"Then, please proccess miss Valliere, miss Zerbst."

Gathering her wit under the jeers of her cla.s.smate, the take a breath before impetuously slash with he wand and start her chant.

"My slave who lives somewhere in the universe!" She starts while all start to mutters, wondering if she finally lost it with her weird chant. " ô beautiful, strong and sacred familiar! I invoke thee from the bottom of my heart, respond to my call!"

"I, Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt Zerbst, in the name of the great Five Pentagon Powers, following my fate, summon my familiar"

Louise raises her wand above her head, drawing a circle in the air before slashing her wand in front of her, she finishes with a firm voice, while Kirche only flicks her wand in a wrist motion.

After three seconds of blank, a large explosion was the first thing they all witness, blowing away a good number of them.

"I know it would end like this!"

While they were busy standing again, Guiche, like any self-respecting playboy was at the side of his curly blonde hair girlfriend.

"Are you alright Montmorency ?" She didn"t respond, her gaze attracted by something else. "What is it?" Still asking before he also turns his head in the same direction.

He wasn"t the only one to look at the center of the explosion. Where before nothing was standing, there was now a ma.s.s of wild-looking but still tamed bright crimson hair, not too dissimilar than Kirche"s deep copper color, kneeling in a "hero landing pose" not far from a downs boy in jersey and a red salamander.

When he raises its eyes, revealing his deep emerald green eyes, all that was about to mock Louise again for summoning at least one plebeian shut up, frighten by the power oozing out of them. When he rose to his feet, more that one gasp at the colossus who towers above them all. Even Kirche, the tallest of her cla.s.s was dwarfed by at least a good 15 centimeter while she herself was 1m71 tall!

Breaking out of his stupor, professor Colbert remains the two of the still unfinished ritual.

"Miss Valliere, miss Zerbst you need to seal the ritual."

"But they are three of them here professor, how do we know who summoned who?"

"Mm, a sensible question miss Zerbst."

While all were waiting for the professor to solve the situation, Alex"s movement brings their attention to him.

Look at the balding man, Alex point at his lips, moving them before pointing at his ears. It takes a few seconds, but Colbert understands that the boy was signaling that he didn"t understand them.

Casting a spell at him, Alex tries to speak.

"Could you understand me?" The ask the professor.

"Yes."

"Thank the founder! Perhaps could you help, since your the only one of your two to be awake, could you tell us how you were brought here?"

"I won"t say that I was brought here, but rather sent here, I know that someone purposefully sends me here, so if I were to guess, your business is with those two here." Respond to him, pointing at the salamander and the snoring boy.

"Alright." Nod the professor. "You two finish with the ritual before I could bring this young man o the Headmaster.

Seeing that it was a Familiar of fire, Kirche goes for the salamander while Louise grudgingly made her way, slapping awake the other.

"My name is Kirche Augusta Frederica von Anhalt Zerbst/ Louise Francoise Le Blanc de La Valliere. Pentagon of the Five Elementals Powers; bless this humble being, and make it my familiar."

Kirche kisses the salamander on the snout, while Louise recalcitrant does the same for the boy still completely lost.

The ritual sealed, the two start to shine brightly as runes appears; On the neck of the red monster and on the left hand of the boy, knocking him down again.

Alex was quite surprised to see that those runes were the same elder futhark of his first world. He wasn"t the only one to take into account their particular form, professor Colbert also does, frowning his brows as he knows he saw them somewhere.

"Alright, follow me please, Miss Valliere and Zerbst, it would be better if you follow us too, I"m sure the Headmaster would want to see you too about this."

"" Yes, professor.""

Colbert was about to do something for the other boy laying down on the ground, but Alex loads him on his shoulder, unbothered by his wait.

"Lead the way, please."

"Everyone, cla.s.s is dismissed, return to your cla.s.s and wait for your next lesson."

The middle-aged man nod at him before the group of five and a salamander made their way to the central tower. Going through a long spiraling staircase, they climb until the last floor. Knocking on the door with his staff, they didn"t have to wait long before they hear a slight m.u.f.fled "Enter."
