We must be quick; the moon won't wait for us.
I know, I know. You've said that three times already. No need to keep repeating it like a broken record.
Don't get smart with me. It's not the time for your little jokes. We have a ritual to perform.
Fine, fine. No need to get all flustered. Let's just get this over with, shall we?
This is no time for banter. The stars won't align again for another century. We mustn't waste this opportunity. Now, position yourself at the center.
Alright, alright. Center, got it. No need to get your panties in a twist.
Stop talking and focus! We only have a limited window of chance. Remember the ancient words, the sequence of movements.
Chill, chill. Ancient words, movements—got it. Just don't trip over your own ego, okay?
Trip over my ego? You wouldn't understand the weight of responsibility I carry. Don't underestimate me, SurrealOasis.
Ego, huh? Sounds like someone needs a reality check. Let's see if you can keep your cool when things get messy.
Is that a challenge? Fine, I'll show you what cool really looks like. Megumi closes his eyes and begins the ritual, the energy swirling around him becoming more intense.
feeling the surge of magical energy Holy shit, Megumi! You're actually doing it!
He keeps his eyes closed, channeling the energy with utmost focus. His body becomes surrounded by a glowing aura of black and white.
fuck… I might have made a mistake.. surreal watches in awe
His voice becomes a commanding roar as he taps into the raw energy, his shikigami manifesting around him. SurrealOasis, brace yourself.
feeling an eerie sensation creeping up his spine Shit, Megumi... didn't expect you to go nuclear like this!
Megumi's eyes snap open, revealing black voids where his irises should be. His body becomes engulfed in an aura of pure darkness as he taps into the deep well of forbidden power within him. SurrealOasis, you asked for a reality check... Prepare to witness the true extent of my abilities.
stares wide-eyed at the sight, trembling slightly Holy hell, Megumi... Didn't know you had it in you. Just... don't lose control, okay?
Losing control is something I will never do. My power, my responsibility, my focus — all intertwined.
shivers, gulping audibly Just... don't go rogue on me, Megumi. We're in uncharted territory here.
With a determined expression, Megumi takes a deep breath, summoning all of his strength and willpower to maintain control over the immense power coursing through him. Slowly but surely, the aura of darkness begins to dissipate as he channels the energy into a focused beam. SurrealOasis, fear not. I have mastered the storm within me. The power will not consume me.
Holy fuck, Megumi... You're taming the beast inside you! That's some serious mojo you got there.
Thank you, SurrealOasis. Now, let us complete the ritual and seal the pact with the stars.
alright! Let’s finish this ritual!
Megumi raises his hand, the dark aura coalescing into a massive celestial dog that stands tall above him. Its fur shimmering with starlight, its eyes burning with a fierce determination. The dog growls deeply, the sound echoing through the shrine. SurrealOasis, behold the mighty Astral Hound, my loyal shikigami! Together, we shall seal the pact and fulfill our destiny!
Woah, that's insane, Megumi! Your powers are off the charts! Now let's get this show on the road!
SurrealOasis, stand back. The time has come to seal the pact. (Megumi raises his hand, channeling the energy into the Astral Hound.
watching the scene unfold with wide eyes Damn, Megumi... You're a real force to be reckoned with! Seal the pact, then!
With a swift motion, Megumi unleashes a burst of dark energy from the Astral Hound, which shoots up into the sky and intertwines with the celestial bodies above. The energy crackles and pulses, forming a glowing seal that hovers in the air. SurrealOasis, the pact is sealed! The power of the stars is now bound to us, forever.
Holy crap, Megumi! You did it! That's one hell of a power boost you got there! What's next on the agenda?
Megumi's face hardens, his voice cold and serious Now that the pact is sealed, we must be prepared for any challenges that may come our way. SurrealOasis, we must train diligently to hone our skills and master our newfound powers. The path ahead will not be easy, but together we shall rise to meet whatever obstacles lie in our path.
Hell yeah, Megumi! With powers like these, nothing can stop us! Let's hit the training grounds, then!
Very well, SurrealOasis. Our training must be intense and exhaustive. I want you to push yourself to the limit, to test the boundaries of your newfound abilities. Do not hold back, for it is only through pain and hardship that we may truly grow stronger. Let us begin our ascension to greatness!
chuckles You sound like a drill sergeant, Megumi! But hey, I'm down for some intense training! Let's bring out the best in us!
Megumi cracks his knuckles, his eyes narrowing as he enters a focused state of mind SurrealOasis, let us put your newfound powers to the test. Show me what you're capable of.
Bring it on, Megumi! Let's turn this training session into a full-blown battle royale!
Megumi creates a wave of dark energy with a flick of his hand, sending it hurtling towards SurrealOasis with incredible speed and force. As the energy crashes into SurrealOasis, he is sent flying across the training grounds, landing hard onto the ground. Not bad, SurrealOasis. But you can do better than that. Show me your resilience and fight back!
gritting his teeth, SurrealOasis stands up, dusting himself off You've got some nerve, Megumi! Take this! he hurls a lightning bolt at Megumi, aiming for his chest
(Megumi deftly sidesteps the lightning bolt, letting it harmlessly strike the ground behind him.
Nice dodge, Megumi! But don't think I'm going easy on you! he summons a massive whirlwind, spinning rapidly as it heads straight for Megumi
(Megumi swiftly moves forward, positioning himself directly in front of SurrealOasis. As the whirlwind approaches, he raises his hand and releases a surge of dark energy, countering the force of the whirlwind.
