Nox's POV:
"So, you might be wondering why I'm back so soon!" I said to the hordes of screaming dead guys clawing at me.
"Here's a quick recap! Just as I was about to finish a long night of cockfights, I was assaulted by two big shots and their beehive while Longbeard watched! Then I got into a steamy fight with a group of rapists in the forest, before having an underwater wrestling match, where I had unfortunately forgotten to pack my gills, but that didn't stop me from kicking ass! Then I ran into the old dragonewt I saved not too long ago! Turns out the reason why his ugly mug pissed me off so much is because he's a blood-relative! Unfortunately, the paternity test distracted me from finishing setting up my trap and I had to sacrifice my Peter to survive! So, after punching above my weight range with two spirit kings resulting in a damaged core, I broke tons of bones using an unstable prototype teleportation artifact, held my breath for half an hour in an underwater brawl, accidentally awakened my suppressed bloodline, and nearly blew myself to smithereens. After all that, my body just wasn't able to keep up and a simple squeeze on the wrong veins in my shoulder from the old bag of blood-related scales was enough to knock me out! And that is why I am back up here with you guys!"
*Screams of pain and resentment*
"Well, while we wait for me to go back down, why don't we watch some 'tv' to pass the time! Who doesn't like a bit of telepathic visions!" I said as I dreamed up a remote to turn on the floating screen in the air and began flipping through the channels.
"Seen it! Boring! Seen it! Hey, look guys! I'm on tv!" I said as I stopped on a documentary starring myself as a professor.
"Oh man, I hate reruns! *Sigh* Whatever! It's not like there is anything better on the brainwaves, so this will have to do!" I said in disappointment as I turned my attention away from the guy taking a bite out of my face to look at my class from the past.
…
The tv began showing pictures from the last episode while the narrator gave a recap.
"Welcome back loyal viewers to the cursed child documentary! In our last episode we watched as Nox under her professor Sun persona, took a flamethrower into the vice-principals office to burn all the…!"
"THIS IS SLANDER! I WAS FRAMED BY WHITEBEARD!" Nox screamed over the tv.
"… To buy time for Shinji, who she called 'brat nr. 2' at the time! Today, you will be treated to her class on physiques and the long-awaited part 2 of her history lesson! So, sit back, relax, and thank your lucky stars you are not taking lessons from the lord of nightmares herself!" The narrator said, before the screen shifted to the vice principal's office where a male Nox was getting an earful from a gray-bearded magician.
"THIS IS FAKE NEWS! SOMEONE IS CONSPIRING AGAINST ME!!!" Nox shouted IRD(In Real Dream)!
"Our mad professor Sun was running late to a class that day because he was called to vice principal Graybeard/Kyle's office to be scolded for bringing a flamethrower indoors the other day. Unfaced by the wrath of his superior, or tsundere overlord indulged in his favorite hobby and started writing fanfic of his reality inside his mind, resulting in the creation of the famous 'Detective Sun' novels, which brings us to our sponsor! 'Brain Book' is the best bookstore this side of the cranium for all yo-!"
"And skip!" Nox said IRD, as she fast forwarded past the sponsor.
"But enough about that! Let's tune back in to see how our professor is doing!" The narrator said as the screen shifted to Classroom 2F of Shiro Academy where Nox's three disciples were sitting quietly.
"Sorry, I'm late! Okay, so, today we were going to talk about how affinities are bull, and physiques are cheats! Yes, brat nr. 2(Shinji/Slowpoke)?" Professor Sun said, after he sat down at his desk.
"Boss, why did you set the school on fire? Did they forget to pay you or something?" Shinji asked.
"I don't know what you are talking about! I have done no such thing! Yes, brat nr. 1 (Aiko/Wimp)?" Professor Sun said.
"You did!" Aiko said in a quiet tone.
"You have no proof!"
"We saw you burning down the halls less than 2 hours ago! AAAAAAHHHHH!" Kenji chimed in before getting bonked on the head.
"As a quick reminder to all. The Sun classroom rules states that all who wish to speak has to raise their hands and wait for permission before doing so, or they will face the wrath of the pain-stick!" The narrator chimed in.
"Yes, so you have no proof! If you want to ask any more questions regarding the pyromaniac incident, please direct them towards my lawyer!" Professor Sun said, while pointing at the glasses wearing pain-stick sitting next to a briefcase.
*Gulp*
"Now today's lesson was going to be on elemental aptitudes and physiques, but since we are running late, let's just smash this and the history lesson together into one extended class on special history and physiques! Yes, brat nr. 2!"
"But we will still get recess, right?"
"Nope! Now save your tears of joy for after class ends!" Professor Sun said, as he saw the tears coming out of Shinji's eyes.
"Now, I'm sure you all remembered how I so kindly gave you some more time to finish your homework on world history, right? Well, you've had all last semester to come up with an answer, so it's time to see what you've all learned! Now, who here can tell me how the dragon emperor died?"
"…"
"Come on! Don't be shy! There are no wrong answers, except the answers that are wrong, so speak up!" The professor said as he tried to encourage his students to speak.
"Yes, finally, brat nr. 2!"
"He was killed by his own, just like the fairy king, right?"
"Yes, and who else?"
"…"
"Brat, nr. 1?"
"We forgot."
"Forgot what?"
"We forgot to do it!" Aiko admitted.
*Bonk*
*Bonk*
*Bonk*
"We here at the 'cursed child documentary' do not condone acts of violence or abuse, but we will however continue to show it for as long as it boosts our ratings!" The narrator spoke as a remix played, of Professor Sun using the pain-stick to hit his students' heads to the sounds of drums.
When the drum solo ended, the lesson continued with the trio of students writhing on the floor.
"I'll just assume none of you have figured out the cultivation core either then! *sigh* Okay, so let's go through the draconic age first! Dragons are a very territorial, greedy, prideful and solitary race by nature, which makes it difficult to unite them under one banner. However, after the fall of the fairy king Oberon and the spirit kings began fighting each other, one of the earliest iterations of the dragon species mutated into something far more powerful than any run of the mill dragon lord! No other living creature, be it dragon lord or spirit king, could match his might! The exact details of his capabilities elude me, but he was powerful enough to scare the spirit kings into hiding and pressure the other dragons into bending the knee! Now, it was during this draconic age that mankind first appeared. Can any of you brats guess what our cavemen ancestors' role was in the draconic civilization?"
"Yes, brat nr. 3!"
"Were they disciples? My former master once told me that the ancient cultivators studied under dragons! So, did we learn cultivation from them?"
"HA! That's a good one! No! We were livestock!"
An awkward silence ensued after the professor said those words, as the students looked shocked.
"Why do you all look so surprised? They were giant lizards who could level a mountain just by breathing too hard! Back then, they probably saw us the same way we see small animals or insects. A small, weak, and stupid creature that will only live for a fraction of our lifespan. At best we were their pets, at worst we were their guineapigs. Which is why there are so many variations of humans running about today. Yes, brat nr. 2?"
"I'm not sure if I understand, but are you saying demi-humans were created by dragons? And if so, why?" Shinji asked with a doubtful expression.
"That is exactly what I'm saying, my poop numbered brat! And the 'why', can vary, but if I had to guess it was probably an aesthetic choice mixed with a lot of free time!" Professor Sun said while stamping a green circle on Shinji's forehead.
"…?"
They all just looked in confusion as the mad professor continued.
"Just like how you would crossbreed two different species of dogs to get a sweet combination as a pet, dragons would crossbreed humans and conduct genetic experimentation to try and create cooler, cuter, or more practical pets for themselves. They might have thought small humans were cute, so they made dwarfs, or maybe they wanted a furry pet and made beast-folk and beast-kin, or some might have wanted a pet with a longer lifespan and now we have elves. As for the humans of today like us, I have no proof of this, but I suspect we were made because they wanted a tasty snack! Yes, brat nr. 3!"
"Why would we be a snack?"
"I guess cannibalism isn't as prevalent on this continent! If you ever get desperate enough to try it for yourself, you might be surprised to find we kind of taste like chicken! That is also the basis for my hypothesis of us being dragon snacks! Yes, brat nr. 1?"
"You're a cannibal?" Aiko said as they all looked at the mad professor with a mix of disgust and fear.
"Oh, wipe those looks off your faces! If it's between death by starvation or eating a dead guy's arm, I'd bet the majority of people would choose the ladder, so get off your high horses! Yes, brat nr. 3!"
"You're not going to eat us, are you?"
"Not unless you fail your exams! Now, let's try to get back on topic! Yes, brat nr. 2?"
"WAIT?! *Bonk* AAAAHHH!" Kenji interrupted.
"S-So, you said that dragons made us taste like chicken, but wouldn't that mean we aren't the same as the original humans?"
"Not the topic I wanted to return to, but I'll explain it anyways! The race called humans today is just the one with the biggest population of the current world, but to be perfectly honest, I can't say with certainty which race is the closest to the original human race as it could very easily be one of the various demi-humans we see today. Now, back to the lesson on the draconic age!"
"As you could probably imagine, the dragons being the prideful dinosaurs that they were, couldn't stand living the grunt-life, even if their boss was the dragon emperor *ROAR* himself. However, the dragon emperor was often depicted as an unkillable powerhouse, which made it difficult to kick him off his throne. Only a god had the power to kill him! So, the mystery of today is: Who killed Mr. *Roar*?"
"…"
"Come on! This is an easy one! Yes, brat nr. 1!"
"God?"
An awkward silence filled the room as Shinji and Kenji looked at Aiko like she was an idiot.
"10 points to brat nr. 1! The gods assassinated the dragon emperor with the help of the rebelling dragon lords! Yes, brat nr. 3?"
"I'm confused! If gods exist, aren't they supposed to be impartial and all powerful? Even if they wanted to interfere, why would they need to team up to kill the dragon emperor?" Kenji asked.
"Haha! That's the biggest load of propaganda bull I've heard since I became a professor!" Professor Sun mocked, before continuing.
"You see, a-!"
*Ring*
Interrupting his class was the academy bell.
"Ignore that! You remember that quack theory about the gods creating mankind that brat nr. 2 used to explain affinities last semester? Well, that is an excellent example of how the gods spread lies to make themselves look cool! The truth of the matter is, that the first gods were accidentally created by us mortals praying our cave man guts out!"
"…?"
*Smash*
The trio just looked confused at their professor as a rock came flying through the window and towards the professor's face, only to be caught with one hand before hitting its mark.
"See, the thing is, gods are basically like living balls of divine energy kind of like how elemental spirits are living balls of elemental energy!" He said as he stepped away from the piece of the roof that came falling down to where he stood moments ago.
*Crack*
*Thud*
The students just sat and watched as their mad professor casually dodged the various things that came falling or flying at him from all directions, whether it was an object smashing through a window, a roof or wall crumbling over where he stood, or even a misfired spell from the other classroom. He just continued talking like nothing was wrong.
"And if you remember from our camping trip, I explained that divine energy is basically just elemental energy fermented in will power! Which is why small amounts of divine energy are created whenever sentient lifeforms like us who carry magical energy start to pray or believe in something very strongly! These divine drops of energy eventually gathered in a collective energy pool that eventually grew its own consciousness, creating a-!"
*CRACKLE*
*BOOM*
Just as he was about to finish his explanation, a sudden lightning bolt came flying through the roof and hit the professor dead on.
"Ah, it seems I've attracted some flies, so I guess I'll have to summarize it before they start to swarm!" The professor said as he brushed some dust off his shoulder.
"Boss, are you okay?" Kenji asked with a look of concern and bewilderment.
The professor only responded by zapping Kenji with the lingering electricity as he grabbed his shoulder.
*Zap*
"How despicably nice of you to ask brat nr. 3! I hope you'll be able to continue worrying about me as you clean up this messy room all by yourself later!"
*Zap*
"Okay, so in short, the first gods used their divine magic to finish off the dragon emperor and then trained mankind into becoming dragon exterminators to nip the next draconic age in the bud, which is how dragon slaying became engrained in nearly every culture as a badge of honor. This is how the divine era came to be, but it was brought to an end after the gods picked a fight with another dimension known as the demon realm! The king of the gods and the prideful demon king of legends ended up taking each other out in a double knock out at the end of the war, which brought the divine era to a close! With that out of the way let's begin on the age we live in today! I am not answering any questions today regarding the gods, so you can put your hands down!" The professor said as he watched his students lower their hands.
"So, I'll try to summarize this since we need time for the next subject! So, the current era is the age of man! After the end of the divine age, a ton of uncontrollable newborn gods started popping up everywhere which made it difficult for the old gods to maintain the status quo without their king to keep them in line. Meanwhile, the dragons couldn't unite because everyone wanted to be the next dragon emperor, but nobody wanted to be the grunts. The spirit kings are too racist to form any long-lasting alliances, and the demon lords were too busy fighting over the throne in the demon realm to throw their hats in the ring for dominance over this world. In this chaotic world where all the big powerhouses that ruled the world of the past were unable to unite, an opening for the mortals came and we spread like a plague as we populated every corner of the world, forming tribes, sects, kingdoms and empires! Disunited as we may be, in a way we managed to conquer this chaotic world while the spirits, the dragons and the gods weren't paying attention, and that is the end of the history lesson! Now, who here can tell me what a special 'physique' is?" The professor asked, pointing towards Kenji.
The students just looked dazedly at their professor as they tried to process all the information that was spat at them, however the first one to snap out of his stupor was Kenji, who raised his hand to answer the professor's question.
"Yes, brat nr. 3!"
"Physiques are used to describe a body type with a special effect on your qi, like how the 'Bursting ember physique' gives sudden boosts in qi output when you are about to run out of energy, or how the 'Falling River physique' boosts your cultivation speed but makes your qi flow unstable!" Kenji spoke confidently.
"7 out of 10 points to numero tres! Yes, nr. 2?" The professor said, gesturing for Shinji to speak.
"Physiques are a general term that describes certain body types that have some sort of special trait, ability, or characteristic that can appear independent of race or bloodline. They can vary greatly in what they can do. Some might have an effect on cultivation like Kenji's example, while some grants superhuman strength and speed like the 'hundred horse physique', or the 'hundred poison physique' that makes you highly resistant to poison. There are even some rare ones that can describe your elemental affinities like the fabled 'phoenix flame body' that gives an incredibly high affinity for the fire element, or the 'star emperor physique' that is rumored to be what allowed our principle to become an arch-mage of the light element."
"9 points, to the smartass nr. 2! While they can appear independently of bloodline and race, that's not to say there are no racially exclusive physiques, in fact the 'phoenix flame body' you mentioned is a possible bonus of awakening a fire turkey bloodline, that's been spliced into you. Now let's move on to the more interesting stuff. Who here can tell me about the extreme physiques?" The professor asked the room.
"…"
There was an awkward silence in the room as nobody seemed to know the answer, but then suddenly, out of the blue, Shinji timidly lifted his hand to speak.
"Yes, nr. 2?" Professor Sun said, gesturing for him to speak.
"Are you talking about the legendary 9 extreme physiques?"
"That's what most call them, yes!" He replied
"I've only seen it being referenced in some of the library books, but it never mentioned what they could do!"
*sigh*
"First, the pyromaniac slanders the reputations of upright professors such as myself, and now the library is missing books on the 10 extreme booties! What is the world coming to?!" The professor said dejectedly.
"Anyways, there exists a set of super rare cheat physiques that appears at a rate of 1 per couple million people, which are known as the extreme physiques that nearly every mage, cultivator, and their mother wish they had. They are characterized by having an unparalleled aptitude for a specific type of energy while their bodies actively reject all other types, making them practically useless in any other element but the one they specialize in! Yes, brat nr. 1?" Professor Sun gestured for the Aiko to speak.
"Isn't it bad to only have one element?"
"Maybe to a mage it is, but to a cultivator, it sounds pretty, *Bonk* AAAAAAHHH!" Kenji screamed as he spoke out of turn.
"As the meathead brat nr. 3 said, its pretty good for cultivators as few try to handle more than one element at a time due to cultivation becoming slower and more complicated if you cultivate more than one element, but it's also great for mages too! It might take away the versatile aspect of being a spellcaster, but you can always just use intermediaries like magic stones or enchantments if you want to cast a spell of a different element. However, what this physique gives you is so unfair it's practically cheating. Can anyone guess what it is I'm talking about?" The professor asked.
"…"
"Yes, nr. 2?"
"We don't know, so, just say it already!"
"Okey dokey! Since, none of you seem to know your abc's, short for absurd body curriculum, I'll just say it! There are multiple reasons why I call these physiques cheating, but there are two main ones. First, they are practically immune to damage directly caused by their respective element! Yes, nr. 3?"
"So, when you say 'immune' what do you mean by that?"
"I mean any contact with the energy or construct held together solely by the energy in question, will either be absorbed by their body or pass right through them. The extreme lightning body can take a thunderbolt to the face without a scratch, the extreme water body can walk through a tsunami, the extreme wind body treats a hurricane like a gentle breeze, and the list goes on. The only way you could hope to harm them with their element would be by using indirect methods, like using the smoke of the fire to suffocate someone with the extreme fire body, otherwise they are practically invulnerable to any attack of their element.
Now the second cheat is the fact that they can use spirit magic without contracting a spirit!"
"Huh?"
"You say something brat nr. 2?" The professor said, while lifting up assistant pain-stick.
"…"
"Yes, nr. 1?"
"How can they use spirit magic?"
"Well, the thing is, we can all technically use spirit magic on a very small scale. It's not something we think much about which is why few have realized it, but the way we channel our mana through our body and convert it to elemental energy and push it out into our spells, is fundamentally the same things spirits do, only we can only do it inside our body! Now here's a question for you brat nr. 2! How come we can't use spirit magic outside our bodies while elemental spirits do it all the time like it's nobody's business?" The professor asked.
"Hey, why are you singling me out all of a sudden?" Shinji asked
Professor sun then took off the glasses on the pain-stick before grabbing it.
"HEY, WAIT! NO, I'LL TALK, JUST PUT THAT AWAY!" Shinji screamed in fear of the favorite disciplinary tool of his mad professor.
"Just look at that shy boy freaking out! He never expected how handsome assistant pain-stick was without its glasses!" Nox commentated IRD.
"I'm pretty sure the whole thing about us using spirit magic is just another one of your mad theories, so, I don't know! So, just say I alreAAAAAAA!!!" He said, as professor Sun bonked him on the head.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" He screamed out of turn.
*Bonk*
"It's okay to admit you don't know something, but it's not okay to expect someone to tell you the solution when you can't even be bothered to think of an answer for yourself! That's what that was for!" The professor said before putting down the pain-stick.
"Now, the answer is the brain! As I might have mentioned in a past lesson, the world is built up of these incredibly small objects too small for the naked eye to see called atoms, and there are billions upon billions upon billions of these just in your pinky finger. The thing is, when you try to use elemental spirit magic you become aware of these atoms that come into contact with any of the energy you manipulate, which is too much for your fleshy brain to process. Just attempting to see the world of your unfiltered finger can make you go braindead. That is why we have an information filter built in that blocks unnecessary info from reaching our brain, it allows you to ignore any small signals from your body to your brain as you channel your energy through your body. However, the environment outside your body is too inconsistent and chaotic for a simple filter that can barely handle your body's environment as it can't tell what it should and shouldn't filter out, resulting in you getting the whole thing once the filter inevitably pops! Yes, brat nr. 2?" The professor said as he gestured for Shinji to speak.
"Then how come extreme physiques can use it then, if it's so impossible?"
"Then how do you suppose an elemental spirit uses it?"
"…"
"*Sigh* So, slow! Hey, brat nr. 3! It's time for you to shine again!" The professor said, looking disappointedly at his student.
"Huh? What?" Kenji muttered as he was not expecting to be thrown into the limelight.
"Tell the whole class about how to advance from golden core to nascent soul!"
"Uhm! Boss, I was only a golden core before getting my cultivation crippled!"
"Yeah, but that's only one step below nascent soul, so I'm sure you at least know the process on paper!"
"Uhm, okay, but you can't hit me again if I say something wrong!"
"I'll hit you if you don't start flapping your gums!" The professor said as he lifted the pain-stick once more.
"O-O-Okay! S-So, the way, you turn into a nascent soul is that you, uhm, take your core and, uhm, I think you start by channeling your qi all around your body absorbing and condensing all the qi from the tribulation lightning to make the spirit body I think!"
"You understand what I'm getting at now brat nr. 2?" The professor asked.
"No! I don't see why becoming a nascent soul would help! And didn't you say extreme physiques are immune to elemental energy? So, how would they even become nascent souls?"
"First of all, I said immune to 'damage' or external damage anyways! They won't feel a thing from the tribulation lightning, but they can still absorb tons of energy to form a spirit body! Secondly, you're missing my point, the key words here is spirit and soul!" Professor Sun said.
"Soul, spirit body? Nascent… THE CORE!" Shinji shouted as he seemed to realize something.
"Oh, I remember this part! This is where that slowpoke finally put it together. I had been disappointed when they came back empty-handed last year and asked for more time after failing their assignment, which is why I felt kind of sad I had to do that! But rules are rules, I just make and enforce them." Nox said IRD.
"IT'S THE CULTIVATION COAAAAAAAHHHH!" Shinji scream as he was bonked on the head for speaking out of turn.
"Just because you've realized something doesn't mean you should forget your surroundings and shout it to the whole world! Now, do exactly that to your fellow brats!"
"And this is where I heard him whisper curses at some mad professor I forgot to investigate. I should remember to ask him about it next time I see him. Nobody bullies my victims, but me! I mean, nobody bullies my students! No, that's not right either! Oh, I got it! Nobody bullies my brats unless I get to bully everyone to make it fair! Nailed it!" Nox said IRD.
"Ugh! So, elemental spirits have only one organ known as a spirit core, while everything else is a semi-physical energy body that acts as a shell and hiding place for this organ. I'm not sure, but from what I understand, nascent souls have something similar when they die. Their cultivation cores leave their bodies and they become something very similar, so, it might be that cultivation cores are just artificial spirit cores!"
"Take a look brat 1 and 3, that is the kind of quack theories I want to hear you spewing when I ask for an explanation! I give it 2 points!"
"…"
"What's those puzzled looks for? He only made a vague hypothesis with no evidence and little details, and it's not even the subject of this lesson so, unless you can turn back time to last year then my verdict stands! Yes, nr. 2?"
"Wasn't this what you were hinting at? Cultivators can use spirit magic because they are pseudo fairies!"
"No, you're still stuck a semester in the past my baby brat nr. 2! The question I asked you was 'then how do you suppose an elemental spirit uses it?', not 'why are nascent souls bootleg elemental spirits?'! Yes, nr. 1, what is it?" Professor Sun asked.
"This is starting to sound like mad Max again!"
"Yep! Only this time, I have the time to explain all the stuff before the end of class! So, listen up you stupid brats! The reason why spirits and nascent souls are able to use spirit magic without blowing their metaphorical brains out is because they don't use a brain to process the info, they use their souls that have been hooked up to a clump of living elemental energy! The soul functions as general back-up information storage for your physical brain, and unlike the brain, the soul doesn't need a filter to process the info because it's long-term memory and processing speed sucks compared to your regular brain and any info not immediately useful gets thrown out the door the moment it enters! Yes, nr. 3?"
"I struggled to follow some of that, but doesn't that mean their brains are worse than ours?"
"Yep!"
"But our brains can't use spirit magic because it's not good enough?"
"Yeah, that's pretty much it!"
"Then how does having a worse brain help?"
"You really weren't following along, were you? The reason why it doesn't work for the flesh and blood brain is that it can't process the information it's being handed in or filter it out! But the soul doesn't need a filter because it is the filter. The soul is a bit of a slow learner that needs time to properly remember detailed information, so when it sees something like a punch flying at it, like this!" Professor Sun said before punching Kenji in the face.
*Bang*
"It immediately forgets the trillions of atoms in the air moving around my fist and just remember the pattern of something the size of a fist moving towards it! The brain, however, would have tried to see all the particles in both the air and the fist simultaneously, instead of just picking up on the general movements of the largest mass around. Our fleshy brain is too much of a perfectionist, that is why it's not suitable for spirit magic, unlike the sloppy soul that only does the bare minimum to be a functional replacement! Yes, nr. 2!"
"That still doesn't explain how having an extreme physique lets you use spirit magic!"
"Well, it does, because the extreme physique is basically just a human shaped cultivation core!"
"…"
"Yep! The thing is, a cultivation core is basically a bunch of cells or flesh that's been crystalized into a living magic stone, and a special little thing about the extreme physiques is that they are a magnet for elemental energy. Sooner or later, parts of their body will start to crystallize into a substance they can use for spirit magic without actually needing to be a nascent soul or have a contracted spirit, with one exception that is! Yes, brat nr. 1!"
"Which one is it?"
"Okay, so this is a story, all about how, my life got flipped, turned upside do-!"
*Ring*
Interrupting Professor Sun's singing was the school bell, signaling the end of class.
"And that our dare listeners is the end of this episode! Tune in tomorrow to hear the exciting conclusion to the…" The narrator continued as Nox began to notice something IRD.
"Hm? It's about time I woke up! Hey, see you next time suckers!" Nox said as she began sinking into the ground while waving goodbye to the angry mob.
