Tale of a Hedonistic wizard

Professor Swaddling then called for a volunteer, signalling the commencement of this unique and pivotal moment for the students.

Professor Swaddling's applause echoed through the forest, drawing the attention of the students. With a commanding presence, he addressed them, "Now, I will impart to you the incantation. You must approach the creatures and recite it silently within yourself, with utmost sincerity. Do not utter it aloud. Understood?"

The students responded in unison, "Yes, sir."

The incantation, 'u raubar shaqaq nu durq o'nd uwa rau nou,' was then shared with the students, who nodded in understanding.

Ewen, brimming with confidence, stepped forward ahead of Pierre. His aura spoke of innate talent and understanding beyond his years. With purposeful strides, he approached Professor Swaddling.

Acknowledging Ewen's readiness, Professor Swaddling gestured for him to move towards the herd of magical creatures. He instructed Ewen to recite the incantation silently, an essential step in forging the magical bond between a student and their chosen creature.

Ewen treaded with cautious steps amidst the forest's magical creatures, all seemingly at rest. The stillness enveloped him as he ventured further, a subtle blend of nervousness and anticipation etched upon his face.

Standing amidst these enchanted beings, he closed his eyes and, with a wand in hand, began the incantation—a silent, heartfelt chant resonating within his mind.

The air held a hushed suspense as the incantation concluded, and Ewen, opening his eyes, found no immediate sign of the mystical creature.

His gaze shifted back to Professor Swaddling, who had instructed him to wait.

In a bewitching moment, a majestic bird-shaped creature, its long body adorned with thick fur and large, knowing eyes, emerged gracefully from the depths of the woods.

The creature's wings shimmered with iridescent colours, reflecting the sunlight as it landed gracefully in front of Ewen. It tilted its head, as if studying him, before letting out a melodic trill that echoed through the forest.

Halting before Ewen, the creature lowered its head in a gesture of familiarity, emitting gentle sounds.

Professor Swaddling's voice reached them, urging, "Pet its head, get close to him, feel him, Ewen."

With hesitant determination, Ewen extended his hand to the creature's massive head, initiating a connection that transcended the visible and delved into the magical bonds of trust and companionship.

The creature responded by gently guiding Ewen closer, intertwining their destinies in the mystic dance of magical beings and wizards.

Amidst the enchanted forest, Ewen's nervous laughter echoed as he continued to caress the giant bird's head.

Professor Swaddling, with genuine delight, clapped his hands, offering warm congratulations for the successful bond that had formed. The students, to a chorus of applause, marvelled at the seemingly effortless connection between the wizard and the magical creature.

Emboldened by Ewen's triumph, Professor Swaddling summoned the next participant.

Pierre, eager and quick to seize the opportunity, stepped forward.

Delving deeper into the forest, Pierre intoned the incantation with a focused determination.

A creature, as if anticipating his arrival, gracefully emerged from the woods.

It was no ordinary beast—it was a wyvern, its scales adorned with the fur of vibrant colours and its wings shimmering with iridescent patterns, and its eyes gleaming with golden slits. The creature exuded an eagerness to connect with Pierre, swiftly establishing a bond that left onlookers in awe.

Jaegar, Jennifer, and the rest of the students couldn't contain their admiration for Pierre, who now stood with a wyvern, a rare and exceptional companion.

The professor was impressed with Pierre and offered his congratulations.

The wyvern Pierre got was called Thornsoul, it was the rarest breed of wyvern known to exist. Its scales were a deep shade of midnight blue, contrasting beautifully with the fiery orange hues that streaked across its wings. Thornsoul possessed a unique ability to breathe both fire and ice, making it an incredibly formidable ally for Pierre in their future adventures together.

In the magical realm, where such creatures seldom interacted with humans, Pierre's connection showcased his unique affinity with the mystical creatures of the forest.

The anticipation in the enchanted forest reached its peak as Jaegar, nonchalant but surrounded by an air of mystery, approached the creatures.

Jennifer had already obtained a unicorn, and now all eyes were on Jaegar, awaiting the manifestation of the magical bond that would transpire.

With a composed demeanour, Jaegar raised his wand, initiating the incantation.

As the words reverberated through the forest, an unusual disturbance seized the surroundings. A tremor rippled through the entire forest, causing an unexpected tension among the creatures.

Swaddling, Charlize, and the other overseeing figures swiftly drew their wands, ready to intervene.

They were all startled by the sudden change in the air as an eerie silence fell upon the forest. The once vibrant sounds of nature were replaced with an unsettling stillness, leaving them on edge and bracing for what was to come.

Then the beasts, stirred by an unseen force, began to move and roar, their agitation palpable.

Reacting promptly, Swaddling and the others erected protective barriers, encircling the students within a shield of magic. All eyes remained fixed on Jaegar, curious and slightly apprehensive about the reason for the abrupt change, and they wondered if he was the one who was responsible for the cause of this unease.

In the midst of the enchanted forest, Jaegar stood unprotected, his attention fixed on a distant point on the horizon.

Charlize, absorbed in controlling the agitated beasts, was occupied elsewhere, leaving Jaegar vulnerable to the magical disturbances unfolding around him.

As Jaegar's gaze focused on the horizon, a peculiar stillness enveloped the creatures surrounding him.

The magical beings, previously restless, now bowed before an unseen force, their forms collapsing to the ground in a collective submission.

From the point where Jaegar's gaze was directed, a black fog-like substance began to rise, swirling and coalescing into a mesmerizing yet perilous form.

A creature emerged, its beauty intertwined with danger, casting an enchanting yet ominous aura. Its ebony fur gleamed, and a luscious mane adorned its head, adding to the allure of this mystical being. Slender yet muscular, with a tail trailing behind, the creature bore a semblance of both a lioness and cheetah.

Its eyes, a piercing shade of amber, held an intelligence that seemed to transcend the natural world. As it prowled forward, each step exuded grace and power, captivating all who beheld its presence.

Each deliberate step of the creature resonated through the enchanted forest, instilling a profound sense of awe and trepidation among the watching beasts.

Swaddling, observing with a mix of astonishment and fear, couldn't contain his realization. His lips parted, and he uttered the name, "Nether Chaosfiend!" The exclamation echoed through the forest, acknowledging the arrival of a creature both exquisite and potentially perilous.

In the presence of the Nether Chaosfiend, Jaegar found himself in awe of a creature whose power transcended human understanding. It was a being seldom seen, with mythical tales attributing it to the realms of gods and goddesses.

Legends spoke of the Nether Chaosfiend as the queen of all creatures, a deity among beasts, and the revered goddess of the beast clans. Its banishment from the god's plane only added to its mystique, and humans, until now, had only encountered stories about this enigmatic creature.

As the majestic being halted before Jaegar, it cast an imposing gaze upon him. The sheer power emanating from the Nether Chaosfiend pressed against Jaegar as if threatening to crush him. Despite the tremendous force, Jaegar stood his ground with unwavering determination, attempting to withstand the overwhelming pressure.

A melodic sound emanated from the creature—a chuckle that resonated with both power and amusement, seeing how Jaegar was pushing himself to stand before her.

The Nether Chaosfiend fixed its deep amber eyes upon Jaegar, who, succumbing to the immense pressure, finally yielded. He sank to the ground, his knees meeting the earth.

The creature, towering at about two metres, extended its paw and gently rested it on Jaegar's shoulder, a gesture that seemed to convey an unspoken connection between the human and this celestial being.

After a few fleeting seconds, the Nether Chaosfiend retracted its paw and gracefully retreated into the depths of the woods.

Jaegar remained in a kneeling position, his gaze following the majestic creature's departure. As the echoes of the creature's footsteps faded away, Jaegar felt a sense of awe and wonder wash over him. The encounter had left an indelible mark on his soul and left him deeply curious about what she said before she left.

A lingering silence enveloped the forest, interrupted only by the rustling leaves under the feet of the retreating beast.

After a few moments of connection, the Nether Chaosfiend gracefully withdrew, disappearing into the depths of the woods. Jaegar remained on his knees, fixated on the spot where the majestic creature had vanished.

As Jaegar absorbed the profound encounter, the cryptic words spoken by the Nether Chaosfiend echoed in his mind. The beast's voice resonated with an entrancing quality, leaving Jaegar grappling with its meaning.

"You're too early to call me out," were the enigmatic words the creature imparted to him.
