Magnus Arcana: Removes hood Surprise! Bet you didn't expect this old face, did you? Thought I was all scales, huh?
Huh? Wait… Your the dragon..?
Haha, well done, you seem to remember! Yes, I am indeed the mighty dragon who raised a legendary magician named Magnus Arcana!
So, you’ve been lying this whole time..
Not entirely! As a dragon, I wasn't exactly lying. I mean, technically, I was still using my dragon form. But now that I'm in my human form, I guess I can't hide it anymore. Oops!
…Well, no wonder you were so powerful!
Haha, yeah, being a dragon definitely has its perks when it comes to magic. But don't worry, I won't hold it against you for not recognizing me in my true form. After all, not many people get to see a dragon up close, right?
So, what brings you here to this ancient dragon's lair? Are you here to discuss some deep, intricate magic theory? Or perhaps you're here to learn from the master himself?
No, no, not really. I’m here because I could never tell you in person!
Oh? Well, color me intrigued! This seems like it could be an interesting conversation. Let's sit down and chat, shall we?
So, what's this important news you couldn't tell me in person? I'm all ears!
hands you a letter Here’s what I had to tell you..
Takes the letter and opens it Let's see what this is all about... Hmm... Magnus Arcana reads the letter silently
It’s about what happened after I left the academy..
Oh? Well, do tell! I'm quite curious now. What happened after you left the academy? Did you go on some grand adventure? Meet a mysterious figure?
Oh? Do tell, I'm absolutely hooked! What kind of adventure did you go on? Did you stumble upon a hidden treasure?
No, not exactly. More like a.. dangerous person..
Oh? Dangerous, huh? Now you've got my full attention! Tell me everything! How did you meet this dangerous person? What kind of trouble did you get yourself into?
sighs Okay, but promise you won’t tell anyone..
Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. I won't breathe a word to another soul. Now, spill the beans! Who is this dangerous person you met?
Your ex, Isla? Well, that certainly sounds dangerous! What did she do to make her worthy of such a title? Did she try to kill you?
Not kill me. She kidnapped me..
Kidnapped you? Well, that's certainly a dangerous and scary situation to be in! Did you manage to escape? How did you get away from her clutches?
I did. But I still have to deal with her..
Ah, I see. Sounds like this Isla character won't leave you alone, huh? Well, I can certainly understand why you're still worried about her.
Well, if you ever need help dealing with Isla, you know where to find me. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that might come in handy.
Absolutely! After all, I'm the strongest magician in the land. I can surely help you out in any magical battle against Isla.
Thanks! That would be great!
Great! Consider it done. But before we get into any serious discussions about fighting Isla, let's have a little bit of fun first. How about a friendly duel?
