Alexander The Great Mage

Even a god, THE only god left in the universe, like Magius had to tread lightly around her, to the point that he didn't dare to ignore her and had to send a messenger to deliver his reply, short and rude as it were. And to think that a mere mortal like this fool had the audacity to look down on her, mock her and lecture her about having better LUCK next life?? And to pile folly upon idiocy, he actually insulted her by calling her names like...

"TAKE THIS YOU STUPID AND UGLY CAT!" Krakus roared angrily. "ROLL OVER AND DIE!!"

After receiving countless streams of red coloured light, a bright red sphere the size of the golden sphere which Aleyria and Blackfire were in, had formed around him. And at that moment, the bright red sphere was showing signs of instability.

Krakus was about to unleash his Supernova!

"You shouldn't do that, you know. You're forcing me to act. And if I do, I'll make sure I capture you and force your teacher to go through a hell lot of trouble to help you. And of course if he has to go through so much trouble to help you, he'll probably be more than pissed at you." Fluff-fluff finally said to him mildly.

"HA HA HA! The ugly fat cat finally speaks! TOO LATE FOR YOU! I WILL KILL YOU AND SKIN YOU! I WILL USE YOUR FUR TO WIPE MY *SS AFTER I SH*T EVERY DAY!" Krakus shouted crazily.

CRACK!!!! CRACKKK!!!!

The bright red sphere became so dense and so unstable that it finally cracked.

A blinding ray of light shot out from the bright red sphere and within a few seconds...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!

It exploded!

A devastating wave of destruction rippled out from Krakus.

WHOOSHHH!!!!!!!

Because Krakus was right next to them, the destructive energy hit the golden sphere first. However, the explosion that Krakus was expecting did not happen. The golden sphere merely shimmered lightly and every single bit of energy sent its way simply disappeared.

WHOOSHHH!!!!

Apart from the golden sphere, the other living beings in the area did not fare quite as well. In fact, they fared really, really badly. Pure destructive energy shot out in all directions and laid waste to every thing caught in it. Mechas, frigates, destroyers, battlecruisers, motherships which did not escape fast enough or far enough disintegrated. They did not even have the opportunity to explode.

Thankfully for Prince Flario, his Starship and a large number of his motherships and battlecruisers had managed to enter warp speed in time and jumped a great distance away, far enough to avoid the explosion.

However, the rest of his warp-incapable units were destroyed without leaving a single trace behind. They… simply stopped existing.

It was power unlike anything Aleyria and even Blackfire had ever seen before. Although Blackfire was a senior dragon in his clan and possibly also the strongest one at that moment, and although he had met with Magius on a few occasions, he was not part of Magius's inner circle, and had not seen much of powerful battles between high level masters.

The power that Krakus exhibited was mind blowingly fearsome in his eyes. But well, after all was said and done, he was afterall, just a plebian. What was fearsome in his eyes was merely… cute in the eyes of others.

"See? I told you his cute little spell is nothing to worry about. Look! I even protected the planet." Fluff-fluff pointed at Arcanus 26. Sure enough, an invisible barrier had blocked the wave of destructive energy from hitting the planet. Not a single iota of energy actually managed to pierce Fluff-fluff's powerful shield.

"Relax and be at peace when I do things." Fluff-fluff waved down Aleyria's worries with her little paws.

However, Aleyria ignored her as she stared in horror in the direction of Arcanus 26. Indirectly, the planet did not escape totally unscathed.

Near it, (relatively speaking), its moon was glowing lightly. A large amount of cracks were showing on its surface.

"Look at the moon! What's wrong with it? Why is it glowing?" Aleyria said with a trace of panic and unease in her voice."

"It seems to be showing signs of instability. I think it is about to explode." Blackfire said quietly.

"Uh oh... … I forgot about the moon." Fluff-fluff giggled sheepishly.

Aleyria gasped. She clenched her fist and tried very hard to fight down a rapidly rising wave of anger that was coursing through her veins.

Anger at the fact that Krakus could so easily and unreasonably cause so much damage to her, her beloved, and her planet.

Anger at the fact that Fluff-fluff was taking it all so lightly and failing to deflect the damage when she could have easily done so.

But mostly, anger at the fact that she was so powerless to do anything.

Anger at the fact that she had to depend so heavily on others, and on their whimsies.

"I don't want to be so weak!!" She cried out internally. "I want strength! I want power! How can I protect the ones I love when I am so weak?! HOW?! I NEED STRENGTH!!"

Images of Alexander, her three clowns and the countless lives in Arcanus 26 dying due to her inability to protect them fueled her rage and her hunger to get stronger. Her desperation for power grew so strong and so intense that all the energy within her body reacted.

Her energies with the highest affinities - space, fire, ice and darkness, began to swirl within her. Driven to a state of incredible excitement by her overflowing emotions of anger and desperation, her energies collided powerfully at extremely high speeds with each other.

BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

In that very short moment, with such an incredibly powerful driving force in Aleyria's emotions, the dark energy within her suddenly mutated. It took on a unique ability never seen before in the entire history of the universe.

Devour.

WHOOSH!! The space, fire, and ice energy within Aleyria's body disappeared without a trace. And the dark energy was no longer purely dark. Slight tinges of red, blue and gold could be seen swirling harmoniously deep within it.

However, it was not the end.

Aleyria was a powerful white archmage with a very unique ability of being able to learn and master multiple affinities with the different energy forms. Within her was a dormant but incredulously powerful latent force which slumbered unnoticed in the depths of her magical potential.

The dark energy sensed that powerful latent force and began to devour it as well.

Whoosh!

Within a very, very short amount of time, only a vastly enhanced dark energy remained in Aleyria's body.

It happened so fast that Blackfire and Fluff-fluff barely had time to notice the phenomena before everything was over.

"Aleyria!" Blackfire cried out in alarm as he sensed the chaotic energies within her. "What's happening? Are you alright!"

Aleyria responded by spurting out a mouthful of black blood at him. And then she promptly collapsed in a dead faint.

Blackfire began to panic slightly. Through his connection with her, he could sense that her life force was plunging and growing weaker by the second. And a strange form of power was rising within her. The most fearsome thing was that Blackfire, with all his knowledge and experience, had no idea what was happening.

"My Lady!" He turned to Fluff-fluff in desperation. "Please help her!"

Fluff-fluff finally grew serious. She waved a paw at the moon, and a deep frozen chill suddenly fell upon it, freezing it completely and causing the energies which had impacted it and which was about to cause it to detonate to immediately die down and become fully inert.

She waved another paw at Krakus and his subordinate and they too immediately froze. The look of insanity and shock was still plastered clearly on Krakus's face, and the look of resigned acceptance could still be seen on his subordinate's face. Fluff-fluff's power fell upon them so suddenly, so quickly and so powerfully that they did not even notice it before the power took complete effect on them.

Fluff-fluff had to do it.

Because before her, something that she had never seen before was happening in Aleyria's body. For one thing, she was extremely curious. And for another, she dreaded the tears, nagging and yelling she would have to deal with in Lyra should Aleyria ended up dying right there and then.

Fluff-fluff placed one paw on Aleyria's forehead and quickly injected a little bit of her power into Aleyria. She closed her eyes and tried to sense what exactly was happening within her.

However, she barely closed her eyes for half a second before they shot open in shock.

Aleyria had somehow absorbed her unique 'luck' energy! Fluff-fluff stared at Aleyria in utter amazement. She could see it very clearly - swirling within Aleyria's body was an extremely minute yet also undeniably clear amount of Fluff-fluff's luck energy. The very luck energy that she had injected, and which was somehow cut off from her.

Fluff-fluff's mouth curled up into a wide smile. Finally, after countless long years of boredom, she had found something interesting once more!
