In Paramesia, Magical powers came into the world of an unknown origin over a thousand years ago. Humans live in underground cities to avoid the dangerous magic using monsters on the surface. In pursuit of power and land, the empire performed experiments to develop their own magical abilities, however when one of the test subjects escapes, he joins a resistance force and poses a threat to take over the world.

Mercenary

This was the ratio of elements that created the acid produced by the carnivorous plant.


Each element had an opposite. Light and Dark, Fire and Water, Air and Earth.


According to Reagans hypothesis, by creating the same ratio of opposing elements it may be possible to create a solution that has restorative properties.


This solution, therefore, whould be as such:


Reagan quickly rushed over to a machine that looked like a large pump, attached to 6 different containers. Each container held a gaseous form of the 6 elements.


She placed a beaker underneath the fire pump, and connected it through a nozzled cap. This cap was airtight, and the hose connecting it could be removed and reconnected without any gas escaping the beaker.


Reagan pressed the pump until the beaker was filled to the correct proportion with the fire gas, and reconnected the hose to fill it with the air, then the water gases.


After this was complete, she placed the beaker into an icy box for cooling.


"The elements won't bond unless they are in a cooler tenperature. This will bring down the energy levels and force bonds to be created, thus producing a reaction.", Reagan explained.


"Reagan is certainly knowledgable and experienced in the field of science and the study of the laws that govern this universe... amazing.", Dubs thought.


"We will need to wait a while, to find out the results... we will then test them on the subject you so kindly brought in... hehehe!", she exclaimed happily.


Dubs nodded. Only after a product had been sufficiently tested on a disposable subject would he allow it to be used on members of his empire.


"Good work, Reagan.", Dubs exclaimed. Reagan blushed but stated "This is what I live for, Dubs!", with wide eyes. "If we work together we can use science to solve any problem... hehehe... with some sacrifice of course."


Dubs smiled, and took his leave to check on Alt and the soldiers who had been training in the rooms.


As he approached the training room, Dubs heard the sounds of banging and explosions. It was a memorable sound for Dubs, one that made him recall his training with Alt.


"Looks like my other self is really putting those boys through the ringer... I had a resistance to magic, but he really isn't holding back on them...", Dubs thought.


Dubs knocked and entered the room, to see Arctus and Sylvester on the ground. Alt looked like a demon, violently spewing out spells and attacks left and right at random.


"Lord Dubs, help us! This training was too harsh! We beg your forgiveness for underestimating your associates!", Sylvester exclaimed.


Dubs coldly rolled his eyes, and looked at the knights without a shred of pity in his eyes.


"You cannot become strong unless you are put through hell and back. Continue training them, Alt. They will either become worthy soldiers of the empire, or they will die trying..."
