It was a few hours later when Alan awoke, not opening his heart he had a warmly wizard on his chest. Opening one eye he could just make out the top of Hopix 's promontory on his chest, and then he felt the dampness. What the inferno ? What had happened that Hopix had been crying ? Then he thought a moment that is if she had been crying he could n't always differentiate with her. Looking around he saw that Merlin was arouse and staring at him.

< Can you hear me boy ? > Alan heard merlin in his head.

< Yes, but why are you thought talking ? > Alan asked a small rummy.

< I thought I might let her sleep she was awake for quite a while tending and watching over you, > came Merlin 's reply.

< Ok, we 'll let her eternal rest for now, thank you for your consideration. > Alan told pigeon hawk.

< I wanted to ask what you are planning on doing ? There are only 30 of the night mages left before you face the whiz. I am quite sure they all have laid a lying in wait for you at one point or another. > Merlin advised Alan.

< Yes, I am well cognisant of that ; then again I am betting that they think I will just take the air into them too. I believe that they will be surprised when I appear to, but actually do n't > Alan replied.

Merlin smiled as he nodded he 'd seen this Lester Willis Young man's tactics, he was sure Alan had a few surprises up his arm. < I also wanted to recount you that I am as high as I can go in the mid-range. It is taking an untold amount of vigour each metre as you said. By the way I have felt a thin parachuting in your king as I said it is extremely slow. After the mid-range I am having a difficult meter increasing. >

< Just call up it takes a slight bit for your consistence to adapt before you should even think of trying to go further. What I did today was the largest I have ever done, the eternal sleep helped greatly but I do n't think I want to push it like that again for a bit. > Alan explained.

< Yes I know, I have slowed trying to increase, the amount of vim as you said, is tremendous. delight Alan be careful these last 30 are the defective of the lot. > Merlin warned.

Alan nodded then reached down and gently kissed Hopix sending shivers up his prickle. Withdrawing his lips he could see that Hopix was feeling it as well. `` how-do-you-do my love life feeling better ? '' Alan asked when her eyes flew undecided.

breathing hard Hopix could only nod as she clung to Alan as if her life depended on it.

'' We need to get started ; I feel it wo n't take too many More before the light council will be able to appear on this man. You sure you feel like going with me ? '' Alan asked a smile on his facial expression as a sudden look of ire crossed Hopix 's case.

'' You would n't dare think of leaving without me ! '' She told him as she playfully slapped his berm.

Alan nodded then bob up with Hopix 's weaponry still around him. `` I want to land up this as fast as possible but I think that the last 30 are counting on me being heady. ''

'' I believe you are right, maybe a calm down meditation, '' Hopix asked, to which Alan could only stare at her. To him speculation with his wife was when she actually left him alone !

Taking a deep breath Alan sighed, and then shrugged hell it could n't wound to try now could it. Concentrating on Hopix 's face Alan could actually feel the stress give his consistence amazing ! Then a new idea started to form, hmmm Alan thought a little devious but it might work.

Half an hour later, Alan and Hopix were leaving the sanctuary, Alan feeling for the next mage he was going after. Nodding to Hopix they started to channelize in that commission as fast as possible. Finally they arrived at a ... tree ? Shaking his nous Alan knew they were Weird guess he should expect it. Smiling then nodding to Hopix, Alan raised his power and cut the top of the tree off. As he expected there was a declamatory amount of screaming before the mage appeared.

'' You bastard how daring you destroy my home ! I will use your bones in the construction of my next home ! '' Firing a ( here Alan just shook his head teacher ) huge bolide at Alan the half birdie shaped mage started to express mirth. `` I know you have a superior defense against flack but this is quite different ! ''

Alan just nodded he 'd felt the more vivid heat but it was really nothing to him. Bouncing it back Alan watched as the dark mage 's face showed surprise as it extended its arm like appendages. Suddenly the face twisted into fear and hate as the fire orb did n't extinguish but built to a higher chroma. Alan suddenly was speaking to the air as he stated, `` I hope all of you are watching, I am through acting with you whether now or later, alone or together. I am coming to end each of you do us all a favor and just pay up ! None of you have a chance, NONE of you ! ''

turning away Alan smiled, ‘ That ought to do it,'he thought. Looking at the bird tool mage Alan pushed some more, feeling the former lose the engagement. Finally amidst an increasing amount of screaming as it died, various Sir Thomas More dark mages appeared and started to fire different attacks at Alan. Many of the new arrivals faces twisted into hatred as they all tried to end Alan at the like meter.

Smiling Alan had felt the approach of the ten that were now striking at his carapace. Alan had depended on the fact that to the highest degree of them were conceited about their tycoon, good he thought as he slowly increased his shield and then started to campaign back. Hmmm Alan thought as he felt the familiar presence of the dark council 's champion. Turning his attending back to the new arrivals, Alan made several different cutting motions as four of the new mages fell bleeding from gashes on their throats and cervix.

Several of those left started to push harder growling out their hate of Alan. Increasing his power even more Alan was almost as gamy as he 'd been before pushing back hard as another two screamed. Their own flak caught and consumed them as they died beside the others. Ok Alan thought, it appears that they really were starting to send the stronger. ‘ It was about time,'he thought, ‘ this would definitely be a challenge !'

Still the number one that Alan had engaged was trying to get out, again waggling his finger at him Alan thought I ought to try something different. Concentrating Alan could palpate the ground beneath him and the dark mages ; smiling he reached down and a moment later three of the four left, screamed. Several ancestor erupted from the background and ripped them apart, the conclusion only smiled as he pointed a stubby finger like member at Alan.

'' So mage Alan you can get a line ! soundly it will wee-wee this triumph over you that much sweeter ! '' With that the last mage faded to a mist that floated toward Alan, an wickedness cackling emitting from it. `` You can stop most attacks but not this one ! Remember how brave you thought you were when you feel your lungs on fervor and you blood boiling out of your body ! ''

Alan could only smile he 'd seen something like this before and awaited the approach of the drear mage. As it drew closer Alan 's grin got bountiful making the mist falter a instant ; that was all Alan needed as a freezing wave of cold erupted from Alan. Screaming the mist tried to avoid the cold and almost made it.

'' I would say it had been a good engagement but you were rather well-to-do, '' Alan told the half frigid mist. `` It 's a pity you have been the most original yet, oh well. '' Stepping forward Alan brought a ft down on the frozen discussion section of the mist effectively shattering it into thousands of objet d'art. Screaming the shadow mage cursed at Alan then stopped as it died.

Turning back to the outset of the dark mages Alan got a curious grin on his typeface. The first of Alan 's aggressor heart got extensive then it looked behind Alan and started to grin.

'' I see that my truthful help is here ! '' Quite confident the first non-white mage started to express joy at Alan. `` Soon you will be utterly and we all will profit handsomely ! ''

hindquarters Alan a now intimate spokesperson broke the air, `` I know you are n't talking about me ! You are a stupid and miserable fool to think I would help a frail idiot like you in fact. '' Suddenly there was a monumental build up of major power then a haste release that shot out and steep the creature. Screaming it was gone speedy than Alan thought it would be. `` I can not stand the weak and sniveling fools the council has working for them. That though, is their business I could give care less. ''

'' Huh and here I thought you had no purity. '' Alan told the dark council 's ace.

'' Oh remainder assured I do not ! Though when it comes to you who can know ? You are mine to stamp out, the sooner these impossible wasteland are gone, the Sooner I can junket on your someone ! '' The powerful dark mage said. `` I wo n't kill them ; that is your job as is dying at the appointed time of day by my paw. So do us all a favor, obliterate them quickly I thirst for an factual engagement against a existent mage not here."HE kicked what was left of the get-go dark mages physical structure. `` These wastes of space. '' Laughing evilly the creature disappeared.

Alan shook his drumhead then sat to rest a few minutes, he could already experience a Brobdingnagian pack coming this way. There had to be a way to speed up the process. `` Hopix, do you opine there is an well-to-do way to complete the clearing of these people ? ''

Sitting succeeding to him her chin on her hand she also started to think, a few minutes later she looked at Alan excited. `` Alan, do they make to be awake for you to actually do this ? I have seen that the more they struggle before you actually stop working on them, the more vim you use. Perhaps it would be simpler to just put them asleep ? ''

Alan sat there mulling over what she 'd said, maybe she was justly it took a lot Sir Thomas More zip to fight them trying to afford them up awake then when they were asleep. The hold out group he 'd worked on had been this way perdition it was worth a shot ! Wiping out the nursing home of the outset dark mage Alan set about making a major city comparable to one that he 'd seen in the minds of many of the Lobrits. He 'd just cease when he felt the overly bombastic throng of Lobrits as they drew close.

'' I know that most of you are confused, I have created a urban center for you, but first I need you to catch some Z's. '' At this all that were there dropped to the flat coat in slumber. Alan started on the world-class few thousand finding it three clock time easier than he thought it would have been. Surprised Alan tried to do even more reaching out he touched at least 50,000. Smiling he found it was a underworld of a lot comfortable plus he hardly felt the strain that he had before.

An minute later, Alan could only guess that he 'd had well over 200,000 there though this fourth dimension he was surprised that only about 10,000 did n't want to be free. Shaking his head he sent all that were gratuitous now into the city and set up all the protection. Sighing he still could n't believe that many chose to stay with their dark mage victor.

Another hour passed and he was finally done, even with them asleep he 'd found that those that did n't want the assist resisted him fiercely. Then he thought about what the wickedness council champion had said, shaking his straits he could almost smell the excitement that the early had about facing him. Was the man, ( Alan guessed he had been at one time ) really that much in making love with fighting as Alan could feel ? Alan had just turned to Hopix when he felt a familiar presence appear.

'' I thought you were going to look 'til your power had increased more. '' Alan asked of Merlin.

'' I 'm not surely if you can distinguish, '' merlin replied. `` I was practicing again when I felt something slickness and I suddenly knew that I had increased into the higher compass. I am now where by far even close to you but I am feeling a hell of a lot More confidence than I was. '' Here Merlin waved his arm with a small expand sending a small-scale shower of sparks out from his arm. `` I have never been able to do that before, neither have I been able-bodied to thought motion as far as I have. '' Leaning close Merlin told a now shocked Alan in a whisper, `` I made it here in two moves. ''

'' What ! ? You 'd have to moved into ..., '' Alan started to smile, so the old man had finally moved into the higher chain of mountains. Well Alan thought now the man was in for it that was for surely, the last nineteen might suppose he WAS an loose target but now Ha ! Alan could only imagine all of their storm faces when they went after him now.

Falco columbarius smiled when he could see that Alan had the like Book of Revelation that he 'd had. Then he remembered the real reason he 'd get along there, `` I came as fast as I could, the 1st small town you created is under tone-beginning from those that chose not to be freed. They had contacted me as you were gone, I have tried to add to a greater extent security to the outer walls, but I am afraid I have n't near the power you do. ''

Alan nodded he 'd felt tremors from the protection he 'd erected but nothing all that grievous yet. Then again with the strongest left that might change quickly. `` I 'll head there as soon as we are done here. '' Alan told a disquieted Merlin.

Merlin could only nod, he wanted these citizenry free they, reminded him of a few of the kinder races he 'd met. He just hoped that Alan was n't too late, this attack had been different than virtually that he 'd felt before, another electric shock to him that he was feeling more. Merlin nodded to Hopix a reproachful look on his face as he concentrated and vanished.

Alan checked all of the safeguards he 'd put in place then gathered up Hopix and they both vanished. Appearing not far from the first office Alan had set up for the Lobrits, Alan quickly assessed the situation. Around the outside of the township there were about ten of the Lobrits that were still working for the darkness mages. Each had their arm raised and were emitting assorted type of muscularity towards the shield that Alan had erected around the townsfolk.

Growling Alan could feel the mien of at to the lowest degree three of the secure saturnine mages through the ten of the patriotic Lobrits. Alan was approaching when he heard a voice, `` take hold mage Alan ! Under the pattern of subjugation those in this pathetic settlement are ours ! ''

Alan sneered shouting, `` Then they are all mine ! I defeated all of those before me, release them, and check this flack ! I suggest you do so before you truly piss me off ! ''

'' As if there was anything you could do ! '' The voice yelled back as various of the handmaiden Lobrits turned toward Alan and started firing.

Alan smirked and easily blocked the attack even as several more bolts shot toward him from posterior. Hopix screamed a monition as all three of the bolts started to penetrate his shell. Damn it ! Distracted only a here and now Alan returned fire catching the maiden of the three mages igniting its skin. Amid the screams, the last two poured on more than exponent finally breaking through, one barely grazing Alan 's arm. Grimacing Alan 's now almost useless arm fell at his side. Looking at Hopix 's furious face as she helped him to rest support Alan concentrated and they vanished.

They only managed to go a few thousand yards, both of the dark mages decided to give chase. Again Alan tried to move them but the pain was starting to distract him, as again they only moved a few thou yards. Finally clear of the Ithiel Town Alan and Hopix looked at his arm, though not as bad as the first sentence he 'd been injured it was more terrible. Alan was about to proceed again when Merlin appeared.

'' I thought you were in problem something had felt off when I felt your first move '' Alan could barely nod as the pain racked his eubstance almost to the compass point that he was fighting to last out conscious. `` I 've never tried this before but I have to try, '' Merlin said as he placed a hired hand on Alan and Hopix.

More than half way to the bema Merlin and his passengers appeared startled pigeon hawk recognized where they were. Shaking his question he could suddenly feel both of the travel along mages but they were at an extremum distance, damn had they moved that far ? Closing his middle Merlin concentrated on the sanctuary and they vanished again appearing outside the front of the sanctuary. Again Merlin 's eyes grew big this was amazing ! This was fantastic ! This was, shit ! merlin could feel the drainage on his dead body and power well he thought as he started to fall this sucks !

Hopix 's eyes were blanket when had merlin 's power increased that much ? The whole time they had been here Merlin had never shown this a good deal might ! There was a sudden tumult as the Lobrits came pouring out of the sanctuary to stockpile not only Alan but a now unconscious merlin inside.

The shadow champion was shaking his caput maybe he 'd given this mage Alan far too much quotation to be hurt by such a manoeuvre. Then again it was really the for the first time meter such had been used against him, we 'll see he thought Alan learned a underworld of a lot faster than he was used to, Maybe this was a ruse ? No there was no way that the Edward D. White mage would let himself get hurt was there ? Obviously there was a lot more to this Alan than met the eye. Yes far sketch was required that was for sure enough before they faced off against each other. With a smug and extremely confident look the iniquity champion vanished, already forming architectural plan of ways to defeat Alan.

They managed to get Alan inside without incident as well as Merlin ; that was 'til they set Alan down and the pain in the neck nip through his organic structure. Doing his best not to call Alan lay there as several healers started to mould on him. Damn, Alan thought he could n't even experience them at first then slowly very slowly he started to feel a diminutive bit of the annoyance fade.

They had been at it for perhaps four hours when Alan heard pigeon hawk stir with a groan. Hopix had added her business leader to the healing also but it appeared that even her power was far insufficient to do all that much to his harm. Merlin 's middle opened, ‘ darn,'he thought as the elbow room spun, ‘ I'm a little storm I am awake.'Looking over at Alan he could see that Alan 's arm was still in bad shape. Barely able to move Merlin directed some of his Department of Energy toward Alan, watching as it enveloped the arm. Alan 's eyes snapped open as he actually felt his arm healing. ‘ Who the underworld was that,'he thought there was no one sinewy enough ...

Alan heard Merlin groan then the healing that had started a few bit before melt. Alan tried to move his arm not big but it was by far better than it had been. Looking at Falco columbarius the man smiled then promptly passed out, damn Alan thought the man really had advanced his business leader that far ! Concentrating Alan could finally add to the healing as he felt the tender flesh get whole. Alan 's last thought as the healing had also drained him was he had to repay the man when they were both awake, well after the last seventeen mages, and the sensation were gone .
