Chapter 11
One of the servants in charge of the supplies produced a whole array of vials filled with scents for Calyn to choose from, each far more expensive than anything on the ship. There were servants already going through her wardrobe. When she came out, there'd be three outfits laid out for her to choose from for the day. There were already other servants that would contact Deriel's servants letting them know that she wished to spend the rest of the day with him. In short, the simple statement was enough to shape the rest of the day in accordance with her will. The dress she had on as she stepped onto the deck was a bit more constricting than the fighter in her liked. She, however, knew that there were arenas in which looks were just as deadly as fists, so she didn't mind too much. Off to one side of the deck, several guards were already standing around the table at which Deriel was seated. The airship was full of the upper crust of society. That, however, didn't mean that they all occup

It was during one of the times when the topic had turned political that he walked onto the deck. As the scion of one of the major clans on the continent, Calyn had seen her fair share of attractive men, ranging from pretty boys to ruggedly handsome guys. As such, outward looks in and of themselves weren't enough to catch her attention... usually. Calyn couldn't say what it was exactly about the young man that caught her eye. There was just this... magnetism to him that drew her in like a moth to the flame. Looking at the flame-haired one at the table where her quarry sat, Calyn didn't get the same feeling from him as the one that had caught her eye. Her gaze lingered perhaps a bit longer than it should have and the flame-haired one noticed, alerting his friend to her attention. Calyn wasn't sure what she had been expecting when her target turned to look at her.

Most of the people that descended from their particular airship already had carriages close by waiting for them. Their group thus stood out a bit as they quietly walked away from the airship. Still, neither Greg nor anyone in his group had done much interacting with the other passengers of the airship. They therefore only garnered fleeting interest before the other passengers turned back to their affairs. Looking at her as she moved, it was almost impossible for a casual observer to notice just how badly weakened his teacher was. Back straight, shoulders back, and head held high, she moved with the grace and confidence of one who wasn't daunted by anything. One who, even when pitted against the whole world, still expected to come out on top! To someone as familiar with her as Greg was, however, the signs of her struggle were all too clear to see. The subtle rigid

Alrik stood on the roof of the two-story building, his gaze on the young boy, barely eight cycles in age riffling through the garbage behind the tavern across the street. His expression was one of calm detachment. Unlike what most would expect of someone who now lived in the upper district, there was no contempt for the boy either in his face or in his heart. After all, that had once been him. If not for the Governor taking pity on him and choosing to make use of him, he'd never have risen out of the crushing poverty that the lowest stratum of this city suffered. Alrik didn't hold any delusions that he was in any way special to his masters. He was a tool to be used and discarded as was convenient for them. More than once, the targets he'd been sent to kill had tried to tell him this, thinking it would change his mind. Alrik's gaze moved to the three women, two o

That someone had managed to get so close to him without even the slightest trace told him that he was dealing with someone of equal if not superior skill to him. She could have easily ended his life without him even realizing what had just happened. The fact that she had begun by talking was all he needed to know that she'd want to interrogate him first before killing him. Alrik wasn't naïve enough to hope for mercy. The threat being made was his window! One thing he'd learned in those ten punishing cycles was that people who wanted to kill you didn't make threats. If they were competent killers, then they'd just do it. On the other hand, if they began by threatening you, then they'd unconsciously first want you to hear the threat before they did anything. After all, it was pointless to threaten a corpse. If you could act before the threat was delivered, then you

As the woman had now twice demonstrated, she could easily have ended his life had she wanted to. Both times that he'd gotten away, wasn't because of his reaction time, ability to keep calm in danger, or his affinity with shadows. Had she wanted to kill him, she could have done so both times. Even her sexual allure, Alrik suspected, was a trap. He couldn't be sure but he strongly suspected that she was perfectly aware of the effect she was having on him. Put simply, she was toying with him. Amusing herself with his struggles before she put an end to him. Everything within him was screaming at him to turn around and run away. The woman, however, had already proven that this was a pointless waste of time. Not only was she faster than him, but she could somehow escape detection right up until she wanted to be seen. Escaping right no

Rather than turning to look, he angled his body such that he could still keep the woman in his field of view before quickly glancing at the specified building. Much to his surprise, it hadn't been a diversion tactic. His surprise, however, turned to confusion. After spending the last three months with the Sydrak clan, Alrik could easily recognize the woman regarding them from three buildings over as one of Calyn's guards. Why she would send someone to track him, Alrik didn't know. Speculating as to her purpose for tracking him in the current situation, however, was a pointless if not dangerous waste of time. Right now, he needed to act. In any other situation, Alrik would have been angry at himself for not noticing that he had a tail. In the current situation, however, it just gave him an idea. "Run!" He shouted, not caring i

The shock came and went quickly as Calyn quickly jumped into action. Reaching into her storage ring, Calyn pulled out one of her more potent healing potions, the tier-three weeping flower tincture. As someone only at the second tier, it wasn't easy for her to procure tier-three potions from the clan as they were reserved for those actually at the third tier. What few she did have, she treasured as her lifesaving treasures if ever her life was hanging in the balance due to injuries. Still, the guard had been hurt in the course of following her orders, and Calyn wasn't about to watch her die. Besides, she needed to know how it was the guard ended up like this, and why. Propping up the head of the guard, Calyn brought the vial to her lips and watched as half of the milky white fluid flowed o

Even after Olivia had gone off to deal with their tail, his teacher never stopped moving. It spoke to the mental fortitude that she had that she continued to walk for another hour or so despite the pain. She hadn't said much since they left the airship, but Greg couldn't help but feel wordlessly chastised by her. They had wiped away almost every last trace of their existence from the town, gotten a headstart on their pursuers, and remained on the run for the last six months. Yet, for all this, she still hadn't let her guard down. Even after she'd pointed out their pursuers, she didn't assume they were safe, she kept them moving through the streets of Ethavel in what Greg now recognized had been a counter-tracking exercise by his teacher.In the end, they climbed into one of the carriages that acted like this world's version of a cab. Greg was now fluent enough in

Greg had expected his teacher to finally take a rest, but once again, he was floored by the woman's willpower as she ignored the bed and began to clear the space on the floor next to it for the formations they'd need. Having spent a whole week discussing this, they'd already made the necessary preparations for it. Greg thus wasted no time as he began pulling out one formation plate after the other. The formations themselves were largely for privacy rather than aid in the matter. Sound canceling formations, anti-scrying wards, and so on. They worked with quiet efficiency placing everything in a wide circle that they could easily operate in. When all was said and done, they both sat cross-legged in the center. His teacher was naked, but with what lay ahead of them, Greg couldn't bring himself to look at the situation sexually. Like most people before an important u
