Chapter 5: wind temple part 2
As they got out, Aether started to go to the next temple, before he did he stopped as Paimon looked at him.
Paimon looked at him. "So Paimon is going to gess that Arrow was made by some type of mage craft, by your new magical powers".
Aether lapped and looked at her. "Yes but it glowing was new, I wonder 'system did Amber crit if so how".
The system answer Aether as he looked at the systems and he smirked seeing the system.
[ Do to the arrow being made by the host and the system, the arrows has the ability to crit, it not allow arrows but any weapons made by the host ]
Aether just looked at the system. "Now will you look at that".
Aether chuckled to himself, feeling a sense of satisfaction with the system's explanation. "So, not only can I craft powerful weapons, but they also come with a critical hit bonus. That's going to be very useful."
Paimon tilted her head, curiosity piqued. "So basically, anything you make can have a chance to hit harder than normal? That's amazing! But… how does that work exactly?"
Aether thought for a moment before responding, trying to simplify the explanation. "It seems like the system enhances anything I create, giving it a higher chance to deal more damage when it hits just right. Think of it as a special skill that's baked into whatever I make."
Paimon nodded slowly, processing the information. "Paimon thinks that's really cool! With that kind of power, we'll definitely be able to take on Stormterror and any other threats that come our way!"
Aether smiled at Paimon's enthusiasm. "Yeah, it's definitely a game-changer. But we shouldn't get too overconfident. We still have more temples to purify and more challenges ahead."
They resumed their journey, heading towards the next temple on their list. As they walked, Aether's mind was already buzzing with possibilities. If he could create weapons and items with built-in critical hits, then the limits of his potential in this world were even greater than he had imagined.
Arriving at the next Temple, he saw Lisa, Amber told him that she will be going to the city, and he was given a map on where the other 3 were, jean was handling one on her own, he was the acting grandmaster for a reason, he only need to help, Kaeya or Lisa, he was going help both but he thought to help Lisa first, the Librarain has cought his eyes for more then one reason, not like the captain was bad, he just found Lisa more interesting to meet her
Lisa looked at him and a gave him a sly smile, as she started to speak her flirty tone. "My my aren't you in a rush to see me".
Aether just looked and spoke back. "Haha, maybe I am or maybe I am here just to be don't with the mission, it is up to you to decided".
Lisa lapped at that as well. "Well aren't you something cutie, and it looks for this mission I have you all to my self".
Aether flirt back with her. "I ges you can say that".
Paimon who was hearing the interaction just felt like a third wheel. "Paimon doesn't like where this is going, Paimoon feels she is seeing something she shouldn't".
Lisa chuckled softly at Paimon's remark, her voice lilting with amusement. "Oh, Paimon, no need to feel left out. We're just having a bit of fun. Now, shall we get to work?"
Aether nodded, refocusing on the task at hand. "Right, let's head inside and take care of whatever is causing these winds."
The two entered the temple, the air thick with an ominous energy. The further they ventured inside, the more oppressive the atmosphere became. Lisa, however, seemed unfazed, her usual calm and confident demeanor intact.
As they navigated the temple's winding corridors, they encountered a series of elemental puzzles and traps. Lisa handled them with ease, her electro powers effortlessly disarming the traps and powering mechanisms that blocked their way.
Aether, meanwhile, kept his guard up, sensing that something more dangerous was lurking deeper within. He couldn't shake the feeling that this temple was different from the last one—more heavily guarded, as if something powerful lay in wait.
Finally, they reached the heart of the temple, where a large chamber awaited them. At the center stood a towering elemental construct, its core radiating with the power of the storm. The winds whipped violently around the room, creating a swirling vortex that threatened to tear the chamber apart.
Lisa smiled, her eyes glinting with excitement. "Looks like we've found the source of the problem. Ready to take it down, cutie?"
Aether gripped his sword, nodding. "Let's do this."
The battle began, with the elemental construct unleashing powerful bursts of wind and lightning. Aether darted in and out of the storm's reach, his sword slashing at the construct's core whenever he found an opening. Meanwhile, Lisa used her electro abilities to weaken the construct, her lightning strikes disrupting its attacks and creating opportunities for Aether to strike.
Despite the intensity of the battle, Lisa remained composed, her voice calm and encouraging as she guided Aether through the fight. "Watch out for its left side—there's a weak spot just under that armor!"
Aether followed her advice, landing a critical hit that caused the construct to stagger. Taking advantage of the moment, Lisa unleashed a powerful burst of electro energy, stunning the construct and leaving it vulnerable.
Seeing his chance, Aether charged forward, his sword glowing with an intense energy. With a final, decisive strike, he drove his blade into the construct's core, shattering it into a thousand pieces.
The winds in the chamber began to die down, the storm subsiding as the elemental construct disintegrated. Aether stood over the remains, catching his breath as the adrenaline of the battle slowly faded.
Lisa approached him, a satisfied smile on her lips. "Nicely done, Aether. I knew you had it in you."
Aether returned her smile, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "Thanks, Lisa. Couldn't have done it without you."
Lisa laughed lightly. "Oh, you're too modest. But I do appreciate the compliment."
Paimon, who had been anxiously watching from the sidelines, finally spoke up. "Paimon is glad that's over! That thing was huge!"
Lisa turned to Paimon, giving her a reassuring pat on the head. "You did great too, Paimon. We make quite the team, don't we?"
Paimon beamed at the praise. "Hehe, yeah! We're unstoppable!"
Aether looked around for a bit. "This feels to easy".
Lisa looked at him, her flirty tone going away. "Yes a place like this should have more, will trouble".
As then Aether came out Infront it her, as they did they both saw what it was, it was a pyro abyss mages, as Aether looked at the new creatures.
Lisa looked at it. "An abyss mages, no wonder it felt easy, these things always come out of no where".
Aether just looked at it. "Seeing it's colour and it's stap this thing can use magic, and by it's colour it is pyro isn't it".
Lisa nodded her finger crackling with lighting, as then she sent a blast or ligthihg, as Aether moved with his sword, he coverd his sword with Anemon as Lisa summon ligtuhg to hit as she formed a few animals made by lighting, people think the abilites you have with a Vision is it, no a Vision is only limited by the person creativity
The Pyro Abyss Mage hovered ominously in front of Aether and Lisa, its fiery shield glowing with an intense heat that distorted the air around it. The Mage's malevolent eyes fixed on them, and it began chanting in a language neither could understand, summoning a barrage of fireballs that shot towards them.
Aether reacted swiftly, raising his sword and summoning a powerful gust of wind. The Anemo energy clashed with the incoming fireballs, dispersing them harmlessly. He then dashed forward, aiming to close the distance between him and the Mage.
Lisa, standing back, channeled her Electro energy into the air. With a graceful motion, she summoned a storm of lightning in the shape of a large, crackling cat that pounced towards the Abyss Mage. The Mage tried to evade, but the lightning creature was too fast, striking the Mage's shield and causing it to flicker with instability.
Aether took advantage of the opening Lisa had created. He leaped into the air, his sword swirling with Anemo energy. As he descended, he unleashed a powerful slash aimed directly at the Mage's shield. The combined force of his wind-infused strike and Lisa's lightning shattered the Pyro shield, exposing the Mage.
The Pyro Abyss Mage screeched in rage, its fiery aura intensifying as it prepared to retaliate. Aether, however, was already one step ahead. He focused, activating his new-found Nasuverse magic system. The air around his sword shimmered as he infused it with a blend of Anemo energy and a trace of the 5th True Magic, "Blue."
As the Mage unleashed a torrent of flames, Aether swung his sword, a wave of reality-warping energy accompanying the wind. The flames were instantly nullified, their very existence denied by the power of "Blue." The Mage hesitated, clearly unnerved by this unexpected ability.
Lisa seized the moment, her hand crackling with more intense Electro energy. She formed another creature, this time a serpent made entirely of lightning, which coiled around the Pyro Abyss Mage, constricting it with surges of electricity. The Mage's fiery body flickered, struggling against the overwhelming power of the Electro attack.
Aether rushed in for the final blow, his sword gleaming with a deadly light. With a swift, decisive slash, he cut through the Abyss Mage, his strike enhanced by the full force of his magic and Anemo abilities. The Mage let out a final, pained screech before disintegrating into nothingness, leaving behind only a few scattered embers.
As the dust settled, Aether and Lisa stood side by side, catching their breath. The temple was eerily silent once more, the threat neutralized.
Lisa glanced at Aether, a smirk playing on her lips despite the serious tone of the battle. "Impressive, Aether. I have to admit, that was something else. I've seen plenty of Anemo users, but never anyone who could wield their power like that."
Aether sheathed his sword, giving her a nod. "Thanks. But I couldn't have done it without your help. Your lightning creatures are incredible—definitely more creative than what I've seen from most Vision users."
Lisa chuckled, the flirty tone returning to her voice. "Oh, you're making me blush. But really, we make a pretty good team, don't we?"
Paimon, who had been hiding behind a pillar during the fight, floated back out, her eyes wide with amazement. "Paimon can't believe how strong you both are! That was incredible! But… what was that strange power you used, Aether? It didn't seem like normal Anemo magic."
Aether smiled slightly. "Let's just say it's something new I've picked up. A little trick that should come in handy."
Lisa raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued, but didn't press the issue. "Well, whatever it is, it certainly packs a punch. I'll be looking forward to seeing more of it."
With the Abyss Mage defeated and the temple secured, the trio prepared to move on to their next objective, knowing full well that the challenges ahead would only grow more difficult. But with their combined skills and new powers, Aether was confident they could handle whatever came their way.
Lisa then looked at Aether. "I didn't knew you can also use magic".
Aether looked at her. "What makes you say my power was not from my vision".
Lisa just looked at him and went face to, almost like she was going to kiss, and maybe she want to do that. "Simple cutie what you did was two complicated for vision, vision are creativity, magic is logic and formulas and for people like you and me, we have beast of both worlds, and I have to say that notification speels was fast".
Aether just noded, she was correct it was a type of notification speels, but he won't correct her, he can already feel the world trying correct what Aether did. "I have been practicing magic in my journey so yes, it was speels".
Lisa's lips curled into a sly smile as she leaned in closer to Aether, her eyes gleaming with curiosity and something more. "So, you're a fellow practitioner of the arcane arts," she whispered, her voice smooth and teasing. "You're full of surprises, Aether. A man who can wield both a sword and magic—how very intriguing."
Aether met her gaze, keeping his expression calm despite the closeness. "You could say that," he replied, his tone light but guarded. "I've had a lot of time to learn new things on my journey."
Lisa's eyes sparkled with interest. "I bet you have," she said, her voice dropping to a sultry purr. "But magic like yours... that takes more than just practice. You've got some serious talent, cutie. I'd love to see more of it."
Aether chuckled softly, stepping back slightly to create some distance. "Maybe you will, Lisa. But let's focus on the task at hand. We've still got a temple to clear, and who knows what else might be waiting for us."
Lisa tilted her head, clearly amused by his evasiveness. "Always so focused on the mission. But I suppose you're right. There's still work to be done." She straightened up, her playful demeanor returning as she gave him a wink. "But don't think you're off the hook. I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye on you, Aether."
Paimon, who had been watching the exchange with wide eyes, floated closer, her voice a mix of confusion and curiosity. "Paimon doesn't really get it, but... does this mean Aether is like some kind of super mage now? And what does that mean for our adventures?"
Aether glanced at Paimon, offering a reassuring smile. "It just means we've got a few more tricks up our sleeves. Nothing to worry about."
Lisa gave a soft laugh, turning to lead the way deeper into the temple. "Well, with a team like this, I think we'll be just fine. Let's see what else this place has in store for us, shall we?"
As they continued through the temple, the atmosphere grew more intense. The ruins seemed almost alive with a lingering power, as if ancient secrets were hidden just beneath the surface. Aether could feel the weight of his new abilities, the pull of the world's natural order subtly working to undo the reality-bending magic he had used. It was a reminder of the delicate balance he would need to maintain in this world, where even the slightest shift could have unforeseen consequences.
But for now, he pushed those thoughts aside. With Lisa and Paimon by his side, he felt ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead, knowing that his growing powers would be both a blessing and a burden on this journey.
