Fairy Tail: Transformation Mage

Chapter 72 - Under the sky

After Damian and Irene separated from each other both of them immediately became the centre of attention of the event and were surrounded by people.

Some of the people who were surrounding Rung also gathered around him inorder to congratulate him for his achievements during the war while some of the noble ladies that were surrounding Felix also gathered around him inorder to introduce themselves.

Felix who saw him become the centre of attention narrowed his eyes and thought, 'What's with that face of his? Even though it's not as good as mine, he still would be pretty close to my level? Wasn't he a commoner? How the f.u.c.k dies a commoner gets to have genes to a level similar to that of the royal family, not to mention that his magic is great as well.... isn't it the royal family whose genes are pathetic compared to his, I mean good looks, great affinity for magic, if not for the status and wealth, the royal family of Adroelia would have been inferior to him in every aspect.'

His gaze then fell on the girls who were looking at Damian with a blush on their cheeks making him feel a bit pissed at him and although it was just for a moment, his eyes gave a purple radiance.

And just as that happened the nearby people who were surrounding him looked towards him once again and the people surrounding both Rung and Damian slowly left their side to make some small talk to Felix.

Rung who was freed from the hassle of dealing with the nobles gave a sigh of relief, while Damian who was looking at Felix with the corner of his eyes thought, 'There he goes again, feeling inferior and using fascinating magic to attract attention.... sigh, such an attention whore.'

But soon he looked away from him as he noticed some people approaching him. Seeing their familiar but dumbstruck faces Damian smiled and said, "My, you coming to meet me on your own, now that's a first time, isn't it Lord Bans."

The said noble and his two companions stiffened a bit as they recognised his voice and Bans said with a fake smile on his face, "Seems like you indeed are the masked mage....I thought you wouldn't come here, since the level of this event is even higher than the one hosted in our kingdom and might feel uncomfortable here since a lot of high class people have gathered here...not to mention didn't you have a lot of doc.u.ments to go through given by his majesty?"

Hearing that Damian made an expression as if he realised something and said, "Ah, the doc.u.ments that you dumped upon me just before coming here, right? Don't worry I am not a person to let my work pile up so you can be rest assured...Ah! Do forget me for my coarse language, afterall as you say there is indeed a difference in our classes."

Hearing him all three of them were pissed at him as he mocked them openly but didn't say anything as they were still in a public place. They just smiled at him and said, "Don't worry it is the duty of the one with the higher standing to give a chance of forgiveness to one with lower standing."

Hearing that Damian nodded and said, "Right, then I forgive you, now let me go and greet the other guests." and did a curt bow before leaving the three of them standing there completely motionless.

A moment later Bans looked at his companions with a 'smile' on his face and asked, "Did that commoner just indirectly said that I am of a lower standing when compared to him?"

Seeing the smile his two comparisons gulped their saliva and nodded their heads.

Bans nodded his head as well and said, "Looks like I will have to make him realize about the difference between our positions

--------------------

While Bans and the other two nobles were deciding such things, the group of the higher ups from both the armies gathered together near the place where refreshments were kept, with each of them having a glass of wine in their hands talking to each other since most of the people in the hall were affected by Felix's magic which he used unconsciously.

Christopher looked towards Felix with amazement and said, "Looks like his Highness Felix is really an admirable person, that most of the people here wants to get acquainted with him."

Rung who heard that nodded his head and said, "Yeah, the scene is always like this whenever there is a event like this. I don't know how, but he sure has been popular amongst the people."

Damian on the other hand silently sipped on his drink and thought, 'That attention whore us just using fascination magic, to attract the people and if only someone pointed that out then the effect of the magic will be destroyed immediately.' He then looked towards Irene who was talking with some of the nobles and thought, 'Though people like us who have high levels of ethernano are not effected by it...this include those people as well who have a strong will like the soldiers and mages of the kingdoms..... That's why he uses threats to control the soldiers who are not affected by his magic.'

Damian then sighed and muttered, "...such an asshole."

Hearing that brought the attention of the people standing near him who looked at him with questioning gaze.

Looking back at them Damian shook his head and said, "No, nothing. Sorry about that, I was thinking about something else."

"No need to apologize Ian-dono.....though I have to admit I didn't thought that you would be hiding such a nice face behind that mask of yours."

"Yeah, even I never expected that you would be showing your face like that?" asked Rung with a confused look on his face.

Damian gulped the remaining drink in his glass and said, "We were going to make an alliance with a powerful kingdom like Dragonof, and there was a chance that some of the nobles or other higher ups would have not like someone wearing a mask in such a gathering, you know."

He then kept his empty glass on the table near him and said, "Excuse me then." and started walking away.

Seeing him walk away the other got curious and asked where he was going to which Damian replied that he was going to introduce himself to the people with whom he haven't done yet. And even though the people were under the effects of Felix's magic, Damian used his own magic power to cover a group of them which seemingly brought them out of trance and then introduced himself to them who happily talked with him as well.

Once he was done with all the nobles from Dragonof he decided to finish this introduction by finally greeting the prince who was in his own paradise being surrounded by beautiful noble women among which consisted of both married and non married ones.

Seeing him with a silly smile on his face Damian tried his best to not massage his temples as he was feeling a slight headache, seeing him flirting with someone else's wife, using his magic.

He really wanted to make the people get out of his magic by informing them about him using it but stopped himself.

'The alliance between both the kingdoms is on the verge of completion, and I don't want to take any chances of it getting ruined because of some idiot attention whore. I have already taken a while year to get here and I am not going to lose it. Not to mention, i have promised the king to get this alliance formed without any problems and I am not going to let him down, since he was the only one who gave me such a position despite of my background and all.'

He then took a deep breath deciding to deal with the 'problem' in front of him once the alliance is formed and said, "Good evening your highness. Looks like you are as popular as ever."

Felix who heard someone talking to him turned his head in the direction where the voice came from although a bit reluctantly since he was distributed while he was talking with a woman. But once he turned his head his eyes widened a bit and he thought, 'Hmmm, the suspicious mage? What happened? Did he somehow got jealous of me because of me being surrounded by all these ladies and have come to deal with me...Well it's hard not being jealous when you see a guy being surrounded by milfs and onee-sans.'

"...Good evening to you as well....umm do I know you?" 'Heh, how was that, totally like someone who has lost his memories.'

Damian widened his eyes a bit and thought, 'Huh, did this bastard really using that strategy to insult me?' Immediately a wry smile appeared on his face and he said, "Haa Haa, that was a nice joke your highness."

But Felix shook his head and said, "Sorry but that wasn't a joke. Umm...you see, during my way journey from Adroelia to Dragonof, we got attacked and after suffering from an injury, I seem to have lost my memories, so please forgive me for not remembering you."

Damian was once again surprised by what he just heard, the news about the price who was attacked at have lost his memories was not something that he had heard before. But soon his expression turned back to normal and he thought, 'And you are flirting like that with someone else's wife like that using your magic after losing your memories.....and the surprising part about it is that I am not surprised by this at all.'

Soon his expression turned to a worried one as he asked Felix, "Really? I apologize I didn't knew about it. I do hope that you are fine now?"

"Yeah, I am fine now....thanks for worrying, umm..."

"Ah let me reintroduce myself. I am the Mage head of Adroelia, Ian. It's nice to meet you your highness Felix." and bowed his head a bit.

Felix bowed his head as well and said, "It's nice to meet you too."

--------------------

Damian then talked with Felix for a while and once he noticed that he was started to get irritated since he was not wanted to put his attention back on the girls, Damian took his leave and then walked out of the wall, wanting to relax a bit after having a stressful conversation with the people inside the hall.

He then opened the topmost button of his shirt and then walked towards the an open area to get some fresh air.

Once he reached the balcony, he opened the door and walked out taking a deep breath. He then leaned against the railings and stretched his body a bit before looking towards the sky which was full of stars.

"Seriously, I have never seen such a night sky back on earth and I thought that all those pictures of the sky filled with stars were photoshopped."

He then heard the sound of someone's foot steps and looked towards the door only to find a familiar red headed woman walking towards him.

Seeing eachother both of them smiled a bit and Damian stopped leaning and stood straight.

Irene walked in and then closed the door behind her and stood there silently.

"I-" "I-"

Both of them tried to speak but unfortunately both of them said at the same time, turning the atmosphere ba bit awkward.

Irene then gestured him to continue to which he nodded and said, "Although it's a bit late but.....I am back Irene."

Irene smiled while nodding her head and said, "Welcome back Damian. I am happy that you came back."

She then walked forward and hugged him to which Damian smiled and hugged her back as well.

"Hmm, looks like someone missed me a lot, huh?" said Damian with a smirk on his face.

But to his surprise instead of getting embarrassed Irene looked up with a loving smile on her face and said, "Yeah, I missed you a lot during the time you were gone."

Seeing her smile like that Damian became speechless for a while and thought, '...what the hell is with that destructive power...' But soon he snapped out of his thoughts and c.a.r.e.s.sed her hair and said, "Hmm, then I guess I wasn't the only one who was missing you."

Irene smiled hearing that Damian missed her as well even thought they talked frequently using the communication lacrima.

She then hugged him a bit tighter and burried her face in her c.h.e.s.t with a slight blush on her cheeks.

Damian who was suddenly hugged tightly by her was about surprised since she didn't use to do that back when he was still staying in the castle.

"Your heart is beating fast, you know." said Irene looking up at Damian's face with a cheeky grin on her face.

Damian looked at her without any change in his expression and said, "And whose fault do you think is that?"

Irene chuckled and then said, "I don't know, hmm why don't you tell me?" with a playful look on her face.

Seeing that Damian stared at her blankly for a while, but soon a grin appeared on his face as well and immediately Irene who was hugging Damian was separated from him only to find her back leaning against the railing with her waist being held by Damian, whose face was very close to hers.

"W-w-what a-are you doing?!?!" said Irene with a blush on her face getting embarrassed by Damian's sudden action.

Damian 'smiled' at her and said, "Hmm....I don't know? Why don't you tell me what I am going to do?" and placed his free hand on her cheek and c.a.r.e.s.sed it.

Irene trembled on feeling him c.a.r.e.s.s her cheek as her cheeks turned even redder and she looked down in shame.

But Damian didn't allowed her to do that and raised her head using his hand and said, "Hey Irene tell me what am I going to do?" and brought his face even closer."

"...-ss"

"Hmm...I didn't hear you. Say a bit clearly?" said Damian with his 'smile' still present on his face.

"Irene looked at him with a slight angry expression on her face and said, "...You are acting very mean..." she then averted her eyes and said, "...kiss, right?" and then looked at him with the corner of her eyes.

"Heh, so you want a kiss, huh...fine then..." and then brought his face closer to hers.

"W-w-wait, a bit..." said Irene placing her hands in front of her face.

But Damian caught her hand and moved them out of his way and asked, "Why? You don't want to.....?"

Irene whose eyes were shut slightly shook her head and said, "N-No i-its not like that!!!"

"Then look at me Irene..."

Irene who heard that opened her eyes after a while and looked at Damian who was looking at her seriously. Seeing his expression she took a deep breath and closed her eyes while bringing her face closer.

Damian smiled as well and then slowly placed his lips on top of hers and started kissing her. Irene who received the kid started to feel her strength in her legs disappearing and put her arms around Damian's neck, who too placed her hands around her waist to support her a bit.

That night two people had a very long make out session under the starry sky without the knowledge of anyone knowing about it.
