[Alan Peccator:71%]

The students checked their percentages in their result sheets.

And Alan sighed in relief.

'...I passed.'

"Congratulations, To me and you."

I heard Sabrina as I kept looking at my result sheet.

"To you?"

I asked her, confused, but then realized a second too late.

"You think it was easy helping you study?"

"No mam."

I said, Heck even I was fucking tired of myself, imagine her.

The entire time I was studying, she had to be stuck with me.

"Good, Now let's go get something to eat, we have to celebrate your passing."

She said, but I denied her invitation.

"No thanks, I'm going to train."

I said to her and prepared to walk away, but was instead dragged along.

"Hey Sabrina, please let me go train."

"No."

Oh, come on.

I want to go train right now.

I need to reach the next level.

But I don't think I can get out of this.

She does seem overly excited, dragging me by my arm. I can of course, just stop it if I want to.

Her strength can compare to mine.

But if I do, I get the feeling that she's going to be mad.

Very mad.

And so, I just let her drag my arm around the city.

I should eat a lot of meat.

We passed by numerous shops, and I curiously looked inside one.

And then I stopped.

On the window, nothing entered m view, except Sabrina falling due to my sudden stop...

And a mask, with jade green eyes, st right at me.

"Ow..."

Ignoring her, I stare at the mask inside the mirror.

My reflection was nowhere to be seen

Only that mask.

Emotionless, a pure white mask with jade green eyes.

*Thump!*Thump!*

My heart started to beat wildly, my eyes hurt, and I had the urge to smash that window to pieces.

I wanted to, but then was stopped

"Hey, Alan?"

I gazed at the mask, and slowly it started to change.

From that emotionless face to a face that began to smile.

Slowly, but surely, it began to smile, and multiple appeared on the window.

"Alan...?"

The smile emitted a disgusting green, and my heart began to beat even more wildly.

*Thump!*

My eyes hurt, it's like they're burning.

*Hiss.*

And something within me, in the center of my body, moved.

It roared, and a roar was heard.

*ROOOOAAAAAARRRR*

I don't know who else heard it, but I definitely did.

And the window, upon which the masks were being depicted, disappeared, and bakery items appeared in my view.

They shattered, the masks definitely shattered.

And I was left confused, with a stinging sensation in my left arm and my entire back.

A burning sensation.

*Sizzle!*

****.

[Sabrina Wellington PoV]

*Thud*

I fell to the ground by Alan suddenly stopped.

The stop was so sudden, and his strength was so great I fell on my own.

I was grabbing his arm and going at a quicker pace because I do admit, I was excited.

I mean, he passed, and all my efforts weren't wasted.

This was a moment to celebrate to the fullest.

"Hey, Alan?"

I got up and asked him, and saw him staring into a bakery shop, looking at the items inside.

'He stopped because of that?'

I thought, finding his behavior a little childish.

But then, as I looked at him, I saw that jade-green hue again in his eyes.

I stopped and voiced out.

"Alan...?

I stopped speaking when I heard the sound of a heart beating.

*Thump.*

And as I stood there for a while, at the jade green hue as it increased.

*Hiss.*

And then, it disappeared completely.

And I heard a sizzling sound coming from him.

*Sizzle.*

"...sorry, I need to go."

And then he opened a portal that was cyan in color instead of his usual.

And I stood alone in front of the bakery shop, wondering what just happened.

Why was his portal color different?

But then I realized.

I didn't hallucinate the first time I saw them.

That jade-green hue was real.

I wasn't hallucinating it, it was actually happening.

But...why?

***

[Alan Peccator PoV]

'What's happening?!'

I screamed in my mind as I stood in front of the bathroom mirror of my dorm.

My left arm...a snake.

A snake was materializing on it.

A white snake, starting from the wrist, wriggled its way up.

Its jade eyes moved upwards, and it was something I couldn't stop.

I aroused my mana, but nothing.

It moved up, and up, and I felt a sting on my back.

My forearm, my upper arm, my shelf...and then my left pec.

It kept moving.

And then, it slowly started to move towards the center of my chest, towards my wildly beating heart.

But then something happened, my back and right arm started to hurt.

"Ah!"

The blood mark of the Phoenix...moved to my right pec and moved to oppose the white snake.

It shone a bright red hue, whilst the pain in my back increased.

The white snake released a bright jade-green hue, and the two lights fought one another as the pain in my back increased.

"Argh!"

I groaned in pain.

Unable to move my body, I just watched the battle take place on my skin.

"Argh!"

My back!My chest!

So much pain.

Go...AWAY!

And as if my words were heard, it all stopped.

And I saw the condition of my skin in full now.

My left arm, now adorned with the tattoo of a white snake, made its way up towards my arm, with ice around the tattoo in some place, serving as either armor on the snake, or justice shards.

It made its way up my arm and was then present on my chest, on my left pec.

The snakehead had its mouth open on my nipple, and its head faced towards the Phoenix on the other side, its jade green eye looking magnificent.

The colors of white and Green filled this tattoo, its scales, and its other striking features.

And then I looked at the Phoenix bloodline mark on the other side.

It had grown, now encompassing my right pec, and had its head facing the snake, with its mouth opened on my nipple.

The colors of...gold and Astral blue filled the Phoenix now.

It wasn't filled in previously, but now it was.

Its blue eye looked at the jade snake, and the snake did the same with its the jade green eye.

And then, I saw some lines appear on my traps, and then turned my back to the mirror to see them.

And...an entire dragon was present on my back, encasing it.

An entire eastern dragon.
