Upon the muscle bound back of his, she was to return home. Angelus had carried the noble maiden to her residence from where he had found her and her carriage collapsed at a local river. In the half of a week she was gone, her father must have been worried sick. It was on the dawn of a new day that the pair had come to the manor of her's, obviously an estate of her father's, but who was he? It was to be told to the gentleman, Angelus, once he came to the footsteps of the luxurious manor that lied within a rather rich noble district of a Lucania city. However, the man was not so unsuspecting.
Angelus knew this pampered brat belonged to a noble family, but he just pretended to seem innocent and uncaring. It was this woman who was to be his plaything, not for that of sensual favors, but for that of her class within this corrupt nation of Reim that Octavius let become this bad. How troublesome, he felt, to be by this woman's side, and her beck and call. It was but his method though, so he could claim the path of light that fate has laid out for the hopeful King. Angelus was to raise his head, lying his eyes on the stone clad manor.
Sabina: "Thank you for a ride, Angelus. I was quite tired. Now, would you like to come and meet my father? I have to let him know your kind gesture! Let us treat you to dinner, perhaps?"
Said the woman, hoping for Angelus to let her display her gratitude for what he did.
Angelus: "Oh, well, I had to visit the capital, but, a night would not hurt?"
Acting rather innocent, he told her that a night would not be of harm.
Sabina: "Perfect! Just wait out here, I will go and inform my father!"
It was then, merely like that, Angelus had been pleasantly welcomed to the estate. How beautiful this manor was. Upon the maiden leaving Angelus' side to go speak to her father who had been worried sick, the soldier was to stare at this picturesque estate which this woman lived. If the pure white haired man could own a manor such as this, what was he to do with the place? Having not been a man who could own such a luxury, Angelus was truly just clueless. However, regardless, Angelus wished for a manor like this one; no, wait, perhaps the image Angelus envisioned was far grander than this castle.
Yes, the image within his mind was that out of dreams and fantasy. It was that who Angelus was as a person, a man of grandiose visions, but perhaps, some may say delusions. However, this was nothing the man should have been focusing on right now, for he was to learn of the identity of the noble maiden's father, at last. It was only a moment later that a series of servants came to the steps of the castle, and were to present their attendance to him, the savior of the beloved daughter of Cornelius Manius, a senator of the state of Reim.
Angelus' Inner Thoughts: "I see.. Cornelius Manius.. If I recall, he is quite the popular politician of the republic faction who is beloved by his people."
Angelus: "Hmph.."
A stage for a theatrical play was to be set tonight.
In the hours that was to come, Angelus was to be told to dress his person rather finely with garbs of his picking, for a luxurious dinner was to be held by the grateful senator for this delightful occasion. Upon a balcony of the estate, the white haired savior was to lay his chin onto his open right palm whilst he stared into the far distance of this beautiful view. It was then that the senator, Cornelius Manius, father of the aristocratic damsel, had come to meet the man whom had saved his daughter from death. In spite of what Angelus had did for his daughter, the senator knew well of Angelus' aspirations to seize land of Parthevia.
It was he, Angelus, who was the man that tried to call for war, not for conquest of others, but for unification of the continent. However, the soldier was not alone. It had seemed a sect of senators and politicians shared the same opinion of Angelus. It was an indirect threat to the republic faction. Behind the musing soldier, Cornelius Manius was to begin to step up to balcony and share a view with Angelus, for a moment. It was silent for a moment, until the senator spoke up. What did this lord have to say?
Cornelius Manius: "I have to thank you, Angelus Spinam. My lovely daughter, Sabina, must be quite the headache. I have to say, I feel you to be a rather kind man. So, I do ponder on why you are trying to align yourself with those other politicians that hope for us to annex and conquer the other states. I say, you must not be anything as silly as some of those rumored new imperialist fellows, right? I never understood those folk. Our republic may be within a period of strife, but almost every country is right about now, just look at Kou and Heliohapt. I know with enough effort and faith, we can make it out of this dark tunnel, and find the light once more. For now, we should just live with this darkness, would you not say, Angelus?"
Inquired the eloquently garbed politician, giving a disingenuous smile to the soldier.
Angelus: "Hmph.. I have to say that, well, I kindly disagree. It is precisely because we are living within this dark period that we should unite, and have our lights become one bright star, that will bring upon a new dawn. If we do not act now, then those small states and cities will be engulfed by the darkness. I wish for nothing but for that to occur. I do not just say this for that though. I also say this cause I hope for this glorious nation of Reim to flourish and foster a new identity, one of unity. I have seen how others stare at me, just cause of my skin, or features, here within my only home I have ever known, Reim. I hope for us to share one banner, one identity, even with our multicultural peoples, I know we can do that. Do you not believe so, Sir Cornelius.. ?"
It was then, upon imparting these words unto the senator, that the brief conversation was to suddenly conclude with a single tongue click from the nobleman.
Cornelius Manius: "I am uncertain that such a thing is feasible. Fate is rather cruel, you do know.. ? Even so, if you still choose to tread the path of a unified continent, be my guest. I just sure hope nothing bad would come about from this, Angelus Spinam. Anyhow, feel free to spend the night here, since you did save my precious daughter and I am quite grateful to you for that."
How ignorant the senator was, Angelus thought.
Angelus: "I thank you. I will be gone by the morning. I have to set out to go see a play; I heard that the play will be quite a spectacle to witness."
Rather upset by Angelus' speech, the senator ignored Angelus' talk of a play and was to simply leave the balcony, leaving Angelus to himself.
Angelus: "Hmph.. What a pencil pusher.."
Murmured the soldier, by his lone self now.
-
It had been a fruitful night, to say the least. A resplendent night sky laid garnished by stars of white light underneath the heavens. Upon the opulent window sill of the maiden, Angelus' long locks of white flew elegantly by the flick of his wet hand. A sparkle of tears of some unknown liquid would be ornaments to the picturesque but devilish scene. It flew on through the air, the tear shaped drops of liquid from Angelus' flick of his hand to his hair. It was what the maiden had excreted, to be rather vague. A faint mirror view of Angelus could be seen on the window sill of the room of the noble.
It depicted the image of some empty man, a hollow shell devoid of true emotions for the woman he had just seduced. If one looked at the mirror image of this Angelus, one could witness him tying his hair up with his bandana while his tan upper torso of muscle began to get clothed. It was perhaps his very saddest moment to date. However, to him, this was nothing but a necessity to become the King of light he oh so desired. What followed this event is nothing short of a tragedy, one for the father of the noble maiden, the senator of Reim.
Prior to having bed Sabina last night, the celebrity of Reim had enticed her with his words of conquest and hopes to cure this nation of the corrupt politicians that he said was that of a plague. It helped a lot that the woman had been quite fond of him since he met her that fated rainy night. From that night onward, the man had made sure to charm her most he could, just so he could take advantage of an opportunity such as this: a chance at further stardom. It helped wrap this woman around his finger so well for this moment. However, just during the hour before they had begun to sleep with one another, they had a lengthy conversation which went as so:
Sabina: "Ah, Angelus, you came to my room from the balcony.. !?"
Exclaimed the astonished woman.
Angelus: "Did you not say you wished to spend the night? If so, I can leave."
Is what Angelus was to tell her.
Sabina: "Ah, no, please.. stay. I did say I hoped to spend a night with you.."
Blushed the noble lady, her cheeks turning a rosy red.
20 Minutes Later
Sabina: "What.. are your aspirations, Angelus.. !? I have heard a bit of who you are from the news and a bit of noble gossip. I know my father is not very fond of those that support you, but my father is an idiot! Yknow, I think that uniting the land is a pretty noble wish. It is far more noble than whatever these run of the mill politicians hope to achieve."
Aligning herself with Angelus' noble dream, the woman stared at Angelus longingly.
Angelus: "Well.. first, I hope to uproot the corrupt politicians from the government. I cannot let the corruption fester any longer. Then.. second, I hope to unite the lands, as you know. Lastly.. - I shall tell you my last dream for some other day. For now, you just need to know those two, my lady."
How fanciful and noble like the dignified man was with his tongue. However, upon the soldier saying what he said about his last dream, the pampered and spoiled maiden was to try and pressure Angelus to say what his last dream is. It is then that the young Angelus Spinam were to turn his face toward Sabina, and put his soft hands onto her white cheeks, lean in, and then tell her these words:
Angelus: "I beg of you to wait till then. If you hope to know one day, then join me, Sabina. Let me take your hand, and whisk you to a world of our dreams. I hope to show you a world of light, my dear lady, Cornelius Sabina."
It had then concluded with that, Angelus' recruiting of the noble woman had been now finalized.
Hours Later
In the morning, the door to the bedroom of the noble woman that Angelus made sure to keep unlocked was to be opened, by a servant of the senator. It was to utterly stun the attendant, causing her to let out a high pitched scream to what she had just seen. Angelus was laying within the bed of the maiden, whilst she slept beside him, her body partly nude. Upon the glimpse of this, the servant woman was to go on to tell the senator. However, Angelus and the maiden now wake, he had to get her clothed, for what part of the play that was to occur next was to be quite the spectacle.
If he was not quick, guards may come for his throat, armed with blades. It was now or never, do or die. Angelus was to help garb the woman, so just right as the guards and her father came-.. crash! It is then that a sudden sound echoed throughout the residence: the shatter of a window sill.
A pretty damsel of a senator within his arms, he was to make scape for the forestry just outside, having swindled the daughter of the man to his side. Angelus' dark eyes made contact with those of the senator's who's were livid, stunned that his daughter was bed by him, Angelus!
Cornelius Manius: "Sabina.. ! What is the meaning of this.. !? Guards, bring me his head, Angelus Spinam's! If you do not, then I will!"

- Magic Weapons:
Name: The Demon's Blade
Tier: A
Type: Sword | Weapon
Magic Type: Animation
Appearance: A disturbing eye rests in the middle of top of the hilt which begins moving and staring at the user, even blinking, when magoi is poured into the weapon. It is a weapon with no known origin, and the man who first found it said he found it in a tipped over chest full of gold along a dirt road. The man who found it soon died thereafter upon feeding the blade magoi. The hilt is 35cm long, and blade 50cm long. Its creepy aesthetic has earned it the name "The Demon's Blade". Its magic circle is located on the eye and glows purple for a split second when it is first fed magoi.
Function:
Demon's Eye - Upon applying magoi to the blade and stabbing a lifeless target either item or corpse, no larger of 10m meter, Demon's Blade applies its magic onto the target, animating it. The affected target will do the user's bidding and may travel up to 40m. It has A-Tier strength and basic human walking speed. The affected target lasts 4 posts. 10 Magoi to activate | 5 Magoi to sustain.
Name: Cold Coffin
Tier: B
Type: Magic Weapon - Shield
Magic Type: Dry Ice (Heat + Ice)
Appearance: A 150 cm tall and 90 cm wide, kite shield made from what looks to be a skull encased in dry ice. Perhaps the skull is from an unfortunate dungeon challenger? The shield is 25 cm at its thickest making rather heavy and cumbersome without the use of above average strength. It has two straps and a grip for easier and more comfortable maneuverability.
Function:- Cold's Grip - When the user feeds magoi into the shield and blocks/touches a physical attack/object, the dry ice flash freezes 1 square meter of the physical attack/object. The flash freezing is only on the surface and doesn't deal damage, but the physical attack/object gets stuck to the shield and can't get free for 3 posts unless the shield itself or the ice is broken. Damage, if applicable, is still dealt to the shield when using this ability. 10 Magoi to activate | 5 Magoi to sustain
Name: Linothorax of Reim
Tier: B
Type: Armor
Magic Type: Magoi Manipulation
Material: Bronze and leather

The upper part of the armour is strongly attached to the torso with thick leather thongs (two pairs of fastening mechanism). Two characteristic suns of the royal house of Macedon, in embossed bronze, function as a keystone for securing the shoulder defenses to the main body in the rear upper region.
Another royal sun emblem made of silk embellishes the back of the neck protection.The rim of the epomydes has been folded with purple leather handstiching. The leather wings protruding from the two shoulders openings are not attached directly to the shoulder bridges but comprise a separate defensive addition which is fastened separately to the torso of the warrior. Folded leather has also been applied to their lateral rim together with ornamental fringe. Outlining the face of the armor is a magic circle of abnormal means which glows in a golden light when fed magoi.
Function:- When magoi is fed into the armor, the user's magoi is forged into an outline around the users body. The outline is white in color and near transparent giving only a slight glow that gives away its presence. This armor only focuses the Magoi already within the body of the wearer and follows the B tier rules for Magoi in the nature of Defense. This function blocks 1 Instance of A tier Damage.
Cost: 10/5 Magoi
- Cold's Grip - When the user feeds magoi into the shield and blocks/touches a physical attack/object, the dry ice flash freezes 1 square meter of the physical attack/object.
