Eye Of The Storm

A week has passed since I defeated Dvalin. Things have been running smoothly and I was just about to head to the Adventurers' Guild with Mona and Amy. They didn't need to come with me or anything since they already did a commission this month which means their licences won't get revoked. I was only doing commissions since I have nothing to do and nothing's wrong with getting more Mora. I was the one handling the expenses for food at the dorm after all.

The reason they came with was because they were wary. Wary of what you may ask. Well, me dying of course! I already died for 3 hours last week, so they're worried I might do something dangerous again and get myself severely injured. Even though I told them I'll be fine they just won't stop and I ended up letting Mona and Amy come with me.

We arrived at the Adventurers' Guild and asked for my commissions.

"Ad astra abyssosque, welcome traveler!"

"Yo, do you have any commissions today for me?"

"I do, it's only one commission, but it's hard. Please go to this place near the Thousand Winds Temple and take care of the Eye of the Storm there." said Katheryne as she showed me a map on a tablet. It was pretty near the entrance of the Temple of Wolf. I've already been there so I can just warp there.

When I looked at the girls, they had worried looks on their faces. I sighed and went to them. I gave them a pat on the head and reassured them that I'll be okay. I waited until they calmed down a little before holding their hands and warping to the entrance of the Temple of Wolf.

We walked to the location of the map and that's when we saw it. A large elemental being. Just based on it's name, it's made from Anemo energy. Well shit, looks like my Anemo powers won't work on this one. I still have Electro on my sword though. Fischl and Oz were here as well.

"We'll handle this, so please stand back Aether." said Mona.

They're really wary huh? I just nodded. I'm actually curious on how they fight. Seeing me agree, they smiled and summoned their weapons. Amy was using a bow while Mona had a book. If I recall, Barbara had a book as well when she healed me. They moved a bit further until the creature noticed them. I decided to make an Electro Swirl spear just in case.

Mona charged up a Hydro ball as Oz flew around the creature while shooting bolts. Amy was shooting Electro arrows as well. After charging up, Mona threw the Hydro ball to the creature. I see what they were doing. As soon as the Hydro ball hit the Electro inflicted creature, it was Electro-charged. It was supposed to be paralyzed for a bit, but since it didn't really have nerves, it moved again after one to two seconds.

Mona then summoned something like a taunting object. I held my laughter back when I saw a chibified version of herself being projected from it. The creature took notice of Mona's taunt and went to attack it. Mona and Amy just kept on attacking it until it suddenly made a barrier and started summoning small winds. I was in a small panic, but the girls quickly resolved it and the creature fell to the ground. Right, they've been Adventurers way longer than me. I stopped them just as they were about to land the finishing blow. I needed to at least do something, right? This was my commission after all.

I pinned it down with my spear. However, there was something that I didn't account for. I used 50% of my strength like I usually did, but since my power was multiplied threefold, I created a shockwave followed by a creation of a small crater. Luckily, Mona and Amy were not near me. I guess I should just use 15%.

I looked behind me and saw the shocked expression on their face. I just awkwardly laughed at them.

When we got home, I didn't take a rest immediately. I've been like this for the past week. I don't get easily tired now. Oh, Amy was staying over. What was I doing? I was training this new idea I had. Using the wind like telekinesis. I could use this to lift things up or maybe even do damage if used correctly.

As of now, I could only lift a single person as I already tried it on Mona. I needed it to be able to lift more. Like, a Ruin Guard perhaps? I still couldn't do it though even with my multiplied abilities. I wasn't that power hungry though, so I guess training it for quite a while would be fine. I was doing this in the kitchen so as to not disturb the girls.

Amy checked up on me and asked what I was doing. I didn't say anything and just lifted her up using this new ability of mine.

"Whoa! D-don't scare me like that!"

"Ehehe, sorry~"

She pouted a little as I put her down. Seriously, her reactions are just too cute. She took a seat at the table and laid her head down on the table. I was going to ask her about her eyepatch, but let's just not.

"Where's Mona?"

"Sleeping."

Ah, I guess I should have expected that. I mean, they did fight that Restless Elemental non-stop. I sat beside her and gave her a pat on the head.

"You did well earlier."

"Ehehe, thanks."

We stayed quiet for quite a while before Amy broke the silence and said something unexpected. Well, not really unexpected. I was just surprised that she was actually saying it now.

"I love you…"

"I…"

I wasn't ready for this. I need to ask Mona if she agrees.

"It's okay, you can take her as a girlfriend as well." Mona said as she yawned. I guess she just woke up.

Well, she already said she was fine with it last time. As long as I don't forget her or leave her alone that is. Like I'll ever do that. I looked at Amy in the eyes and gave her my reply.

"I love you as well. If you're fine with me then-"

"Yes! Please take care of me from now on!"

Thus, I got another girlfriend. Though, I feel like there will be another one to come very soon.
