Kitt reaches the screen and Zitile speaks, "Push yourself too hard and you'll break." Kitt stops then turns looking at Zitile still breathing heavily but determination is in his eyes. Zitile sighs, "Are you that stumped about what happened before."
Kitt meows speaking in the mind, "I can't accept it! I won't!" He turns to the screen raising his paw.
Zitile shakes her head, "You can keep going, you'll get stronger but never enough to beat Isadora. You should come to terms with it."
"Why should I?!" Kitt meows, "I couldn't get away from her, no matter how hard I tried. It was almost felt as strong as Master." Zitile tilts her head looking at Kitt and he continues speaking, "I thought Master was the only one strong like this, since there's another then it means there's more. If a situation like that comes…..how can I protect Master?" He looks at the screen with resolve, "I want to protect her."
Zitile sighs, "Come here Kitty." She walks to the center of the platform and sits down, Kitt walks up to her and sits before her. Zitile looks at the spies, "If you want more information then join us." The 2 feel awkward but they join them.
Kitt meows, "What is it?" The 2 can't hear Kitt since he's speaking directly to Zitile's mind.
Zitile looks at Kitt, "Your Master is indeed powerful, I can say there's no one on the entire earth capable of defeating her. Not even Kael, and he's the strongest amongst us." The 2 shadows are surprised and Zitile continues, "Those with strength to match her are her family, so you can rest assured no one will try to hurt her."
Kitt looks down still feeling the need to grow stronger. Zitile speaks, "It's not a bad thing to want to get stronger, but the target you've set is unattainable until you can become a Calamity."
Kitt looks at Zitile, "Then how do I become one?"
Zitile shakes her head, "I don't know." Zitile scratches her head, "Nytri became one by accident, since we're connected to her, we also got the chance to become Calamities. It sounds simple but that is the only evolution path available for us, unless we forcefully create another path. And that's near impossible, we still don't know the exact factor necessary to become a Calamity."
"So, does it mean that Isadora is one of them?" Kitt meows.
"Yes," Zitile speaks, "As a matter of fact, Isadora is amongst the top 20 strongest Azurians….Despite how she looks." Zitile takes out snacks and place it before them to eat, Kitt listens with surprise. "Now you see why you don't stand a chance against her. Nytri is around the 40th strongest in Azuria." This shocks everyone.
The shadow leader speaks, "So how is it possible, you said she's the first Calamity. How is she so weak?"
Zitile chuckles, "Nytri is not weak, the tournament we use to determine the strongest merely went against her. Battle of attrition is Nytri's specialty, no matter how long it takes she'll eventually win. Unless you can defeat her in the first few moves, you'll lose eventually, no matter how strong you are."
Kitt meows, "So she was defeated in the first few moves, during this tournament?"
Zitile speaks, "Not exactly, we use a glass suit to determine the winner. If your suit breaks you lose. Nytri's defenses can ignore damage to a certain extent, so she didn't avoid some attack. That's how her suit broke a lot. Besides, she only joined for fun."
Kitt looks down, "So how strong is Master?"
Zitile looks at the ceiling, "Strong enough to face 4 generations above her. Ryu, her brother is only 7 generations above her….Nytri spared with him once, she was pinned down in a few seconds by his fingers. She couldn't get up no matter how hard she tried. That's not a good view on the difference in generations but it's enough."
"That is why I must get stronger." Kitt meows, "So I can face anyone and protect her."
"You don't say," Zitile speaks, "Then, you'll have to find a way to catch up to her in Level first. Fighting the golems here won't increase your level. Focus on your level first. You got the God rank because Nytri injected Divine energy into you, this means you don't need followers to level up. Just grow your body and stick close to me or Nytri, our leaking EP will be enough for you to absorb and level up."
Kitt meows, "What next?"
Zitile smiles, "Reach level 200." The shadows open their eyes in surprise and Zitile continues, "By that time, I'm certain we'd find a way for you to catch up." Zitile gets up, "Oh right, as for Isadora. She's a nice person, a bit curious but nice. I'm certain if you ask her she'll look into this for you." She looks at the shadows, "Let's go you 2, work has closed. You can leave or sleep in the dorms."
Zitile walks out of the building and the shadows also leave to report to the prince. Kitt sits in the room in thought, "Level 200, staying by Master is enough for me to reach that level if I grow." He sighs, "I have a long way ahead of me…." He stands up and walks of the platform, "I'll eventually reach it."
Zitile makes a few rounds around the store and building to make sure it's locked and safe, her detection skill can't also detect thieves so she goes through all these measures. She looks up at the sky, "I wonder where Nytri went that's taking her so long." She walks to her room. She stands before the mirror and changes into pajamas. She blinks her eyes and the mirror vanishes. Space distorts and everything around Zitile vanishes and she finds herself in a place of gold land and sky as far as the eye can see.
Zitile looks around her, "Isadora?"
"Awww," A voice comes from around Zitile, "I didn't know you could say such nice words for me." Isadora is speaking.
Zitile sighs, "I just spoke the truth…..now, what is this?"
"I was testing making formations out." Isadora speaks, I slabbed a bunch of runes together and saw limitless potential. This could also help use our Domains like before we crossed level 200. But it's useless and can't attack anyone above level 200."
"That's nice," Zitile speaks, "How do I get out of here?"
"Uhhhh..." Isadora speaks, "Still working on a few kinks."
"I'm gonna break it." Zitile speaks raising her hand.
"OH please don't!" Isadora begs, "It took so much effort to create this! Not to mention since you got taken it means it can hold you for a while."
"Isa." Zitile speaks and Isadore is flustered, "Right right right, just hold still. I'll try to dispel it...." *BANG* "There. It's down." Zitile's surroundings warps and she appears back in her room, she looks around her and sees Isadora standing in the window holding a paper filled with runes on all sides.
Isadora lands in Zitile's room and waves the paper before Zitile, "I call this the formation slip, get it? It has a lot of runes on it arranged in an array and put together to make a formation."
Zitile speaks with a blank face, "Yaa~ay, that is impressive."
Isadora squints her mouth, "You don't have to be so sarcastic about it. Anyway, where's mum?"
Zitile shrugs, "I don't know, she left in the morning and hasn't returned. Can't you track her from her storage space? Why are you here?"
Isadora shakes her head, "I can enter her storage space but if she doesn't open it, I can't get out to find her. I came here about the Pseudo Shell complete, I finished it and wanted to test it with mum."
"Well, you'll have to wait for her." Zitile speaks, she sits on her bed, "That groping of yours really traumatized little Kitty, he went on and on about surpassing you one day."
Isadora scratches the back of her head, "Yeah, sorry. I overstepped his boundaries into his personal space."
"It's a good thing you realize it" Zitile speaks, "Anyway, I'm going to get some shut eye." Zitile sleeps on the bed. Isadora takes a test tube of some kind and takes a step, but before her feet could touch the ground. "Don't even think about it." Zilite speaks.
Isadora pouts, "Hmph." She jumps out the window and tendrils appear on her back forming golden wings, she flaps them and arrives at the top of the building then rests on it. Isadora looks around the building and notices the shadow guards reporting to the prince, "Haven't you ever heard of subtlety." She speaks but they don't hear, she sits looking at the night sky.
"What's mum up to anyway?" Isadora speaks, her eyes glows and her vision sweeps across the lands viewing hundreds of kilometers. She sighs, "Mum's just like a Xeno I tell ya, she can't be found no matter what unless she reveals herself. I don't want to disturb her through the contact, she might be doing something important….or not. I'll just wait." Her eyes stopes glowing and closes then sleeps.
