Mikhail was still surprised both on the way Fatima handled the situation (including sitting on his lap) and by her power, that immediately made the others calm down. Perhaps he had been too quick to judge her as being harmless... She definitely knew how to handle the situation. He would be sure to keep an eye out for her for the duration of his stay. She was undoubtedly a kind woman, as it became evident for Mikhail just a few seconds after her 'outburst'. Fatima herself apparently didn't liked to act like that. Mikhail couldn't help but to silently wonder how Fatima, such a kind and sweet woman kept those who lived in that house in control.

But despite Fatima's efforts, the peace she had created soon vanished once more when Gen turned to Mikhail, snarling to him after he replied to Lucivar's question. The second Gen summoned his warblade, Mikhail's hand instinctively grasped the hilt of one of the twin daggers while getting ready to use his threads. There was no room to discussion anymore. It was the second time someone had shown a weapon in his presence and his instincts were speaking too loud for him to ignore.

Mikhail's eyes were cold and penetrating, showing an almost unsettling calm as he stood up from the chair, his muscles immediately tensing up. Deep down inside, Mikhail was almost feeling guilty for Fatima and all the effort she had wasted in order to keep things calm, but in his own defense, he was simply reacting to the changes in the atmosphere, as he not even once had displayed hostility to any other of those in the room and instead, was the one who was clearly being threatened.

Fortunately for all those present, Mikhail's previous question regarding how Fatima was able to live in that house would be answered in just a moment as Faeril arrived on the kitchen, looking to Gen with an icy stare that was incredibly similar to Mikhail's own stare, immediately making Gen unsummon his blade and proceeded to scold her for waking up too soon. Despite Faeril's faint and obviously tired voice, the moment she opened her mouth again, Gen immediately stopped speaking, quietly listening to Faeril.

Surprisingly enough, the one that Mikhail could understand better on that house was the one that the others described as being the most dangerous. Despite Fatima's kindness and sweetness, Mikhail still couldn't understand her actions. But he could clearly understand how Faeril acted. She might be dangerous, but maybe it was exactly because of that fact that Mikhail could understand her actions to some extent. So far, she shown herself to be highly professional, including not asking any questions about Mikhail's past. Not only that but he had been extremely vulnerable when she was treating him and yet, she shown herself to be trustworthy.

"Fatima, once again, I'm grateful for your hospitality and your kindness. I had honestly almost forgotten how sweet the word 'friend' sounds. I must also apologize myself. My presence here apparently caused quite a... commotion." Mikhail said, with a smile and a discreet bow towards Fatima, apologizing himself to her despite the fact that he did nothing nor spoke anything wrong.

"Faeril, as we discussed previously, I always keep my word and I will repay for the treatment in any way I can." Mikhail said, looking to Faeril and nodding respectfully towards her, silently telling her that he would return and she didn't need to be worried about him simply disappearing before he turned to the rest.

"That being said, even though I would definitely like to stay a bit more, I'm afraid I must leave. Just as Lucivar said, Bloodshed is indeed unavoidable if things continue like this." Mikhail said, with cold, penetrating eyes looking to the Eyriens in particular.

"I highly advise against trying to stop me. Weapons have already been drawn two times in my presence and pointed towards me despite my clearly non-hostile intentions. I came here only to have my 'condition' treated and nothing more. There is no need for unnecessary bloodshed." Mikhail continued, with clear predatory eyes as he walked towards the door.

Hye Kyou

It was true that Hye liked to study and found some aspects of magecraft highly interesting despite his obvious inability to use it, but those who were looking at Hye right now would never believe such words. The only thing that could differ Hye from a black hoodie that someone forgot on top of the desk were a few locks of a long black hair hanging from the borders of the same. Awakening due to the noise of the other students getting up and packing their things, Hye unceremoniously stretched himself, getting up from the completely empty desk he was standing in.

Truth be told, Hye didn't really need to attend that specific lecture. The classes he needed to attend were much more advanced than the one he was currently in but since he had nothing else to do on that day, due to being late for his own lecture and not allowed to get in the class, he choose to watch that one instead. Unfortunately, he already had pretty much all the content of that particular lecture memorized in his head due to him being forced to study when he was still on the Kyou family's main house. The aspects he was interested, unlike that particular lecture, were much more practical. Often things related to actual combat and, strangely enough for someone who couldn't actually use magic, regarding the very construction of spells and magecraft.

Despite the fact that he had obviously slept for the most part of the lecture, he woke up in the exact moment to hear the teacher mentioning the fact that they would have the next week free. Unsurprisingly, be it for simple lack of attention or maybe some type of selective hearing he developed in order to slack off more efficiently, he failed to hear the rest of what the teacher had to say, regarding the exams.

"That was... quite boring..." Hye mumbled to himself, yawning as he got up, taking off the hoodie that was covering his head.

As the other, obviously more motivated students, passed by the still sleepy Hye, he overheard some comments. Unsurprisingly, most of them were centered about servants. The number one reason for most mages to move to Fusang City. Be it the tournament, servant popularity in the school & etc, he rarely heard anything that wasn't about servants. Unlike most others, Hye wasn't there to summon a servant. After all... Even Hye himself had already accepted the fact that despite his incredibly high quality magic circuits, he was nothing more than a 'failure as a mage'. Despite that, it was undeniable that most mages didn't have that much of a chance against him in a fight as he was trained for the sole purpose of defeating them.

It was undeniable though that Hye was somewhat interested in servants... just like most others who were in Fusang City. The biggest difference was only that it wasn't his primary objective and his motives weren't not exciting. He was simply curious as he was never allowed to watch the battles between servants despite his combat training due to how destructive they could get. That and well... He never had the opportunity of having a friendly spar against a servant. Not that he didn't knew the outcome, of course... But still, it would be interesting to learn from a legend.

Finally free from today's lecture, Hye discreetly got the headphones he kept on his pocket, putting them on and playing some music as he calmly walked out of the classroom, whistling carelessly as he did so.

"Maybe I should try summoning a servant? Who knows... Maybe even a failure like me will be able to summon someone..." Hye said to himself with a chuckle, mocking the way as the head of the Kyou family used to call him as he exited the classroom.

"My living room should be big enough to do the ritual... I hope..." Hye thought, whistling as he decided to try summoning a servant.

Fate/Eternum

Sorry for the delay guys. Will have my servant done probably tomorrow (will start working on him today but I don't think i'll be able to finish it since it's already 00:00 here and I have college early tomorrow.)

Hye is free if anyone wants to be his partner.

Simo Häyhä as a servant too.

@VitaVitaAR

Hye Kyou

Name: Hye Kyou

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Appearance: Hye

Personality: Hye normally is a calm and pretty chill guy, often preferring to keep his own thoughts to himself and avoiding any type of 'unnecessary trouble' he possibly can, going as far as to give him the reputation of being lazy. Despite this fact, on stressful, dangerous situations or when given a 'task' by the family head, he will focus solely on the task at hand and it's completion. Due to being a very logical person often favoring efficiency over a specific mean to attain his 'objective' some of his actions may be considered cold.

Despite his penetrating and intimidating stare, Hye is actually a rather pleasant person to hang out with if you manage to get closer to him. Staying true to his reputation, Hye can be found often reading books, playing games, listening to music or simply relaxing when he is not training. Despite his lean and muscular body, he does have a surprising appetite and enjoys eating good food.

Abilities: Hye was born with an extremely average amount of magic circuits but with an unusually high quality. Normally that would be enough to give him a very good potential as a mage but unfortunately, he was born with defective magic circuits. Unable to use most types of magic. Due to this, Hye is incapable of using any other spells other than the very specific techniques he specialized himself with.

• Skills
  
  
  
  • Pressure Points: Normally one would use this for oriental medicine, they can be used with great effect to incapacitate opponents. Differently from the silly movies and myths, there is no such thing as a 'death touch' as all of those techniques are mostly useful to incapacitate a target. It's use in actual fighting is actually something much less 'flashy' than what common martial art myths show them. Overall, these techniques focus on striking certain points of the human body such as certain spots on the heat (the temple for example), the throat, the nose & etc.
    Hye can also use these techniques coupled with his knowledge in order to temporarily disable another mage's magic circuits by striking specific nerves on a mage's body with a series of quick and precise blows. Although really good to incapacitate a mage, Hye actually needs to get close to said mage and perform a series of consecutive strikes.
  • Short Blades Hye is a specialist in using short bladed weapons like knives, daggers & etc. Be it throwing them or not.
• Magecraft
  
  
  
  • Self Reinforcement: Despite it's name, this spell was created with both Reinforcement, Thought Acceleration and Memory Partition in a very basic level. By using this he is able to 'reinforce' his own body in order to become noticeably faster, slightly stronger, improve his senses and his reaction speed. Although it noticeably raises his stamina, it doesn't make him more durable, resistant to pain or damage. Due to this and the fact that it puts a heavy strain on his muscles and mind when using it for a long time, he needs to use this technique carefully.
  • Mental Interference: Hye is able to use a very limited and very basic form of a mental interference spell to disorientate one target on his line of sight for a brief moment. While it's completely harmless, it's able to make the target hear small sounds that he actually didn't hear, think he saw something that he actually didn't or make he believe he saw nothing when he actually did. All of those effects fade incredibly quickly though. One example of how Hye uses it is by making the target believe he disappeared for a brief second, making a 'flicker' type visual illusion for half a second to a second at max in order to allow him to get closer to his opponent or make his opponent lose sight of him for a second.

History:
Born out of an affair between a member of the Kyou family and a non mage from outside of the family, Hye never received the same attention or even the same care that a member of the main family would receive. Known for being incredibly strict, the Kyou family has a history of being incredibly cold even with their own members in order to create powerful mages. Hye, despite his non mage mother, was still the son of a powerful mage from the head family. Due to that, he had high expectations put on him.

Unfortunately, despite exhaustive training, he was deemed a failure in magic when he showed absolutely no aptitude for it. The only thing that saved him from being immediately kicked out of the main family and hidden from the world in order to not stain the family's honor was the fact that he had unusually high quality magic circuits, despite being defective. That being, he still had uses to the Kyou family in order to hunt mages that could put the family in danger and generally just do the 'dirty' work the main family wouldn't do and as such, he immediately began training combat techniques that would be effective in taking down other mages.

Being unable to turn away their eyes from Fusang who was in the spotlight of both the world of the mages and non mages, the Kyou family finally started extending their reach towards said city. Due to Hye's high quality magic circuits, the Kyou family sent him to Fusang to have a political marriage to a female mage of a less powerful family in order to have an opportunity to put their feet on Fusang without alerting other rival families. Tired of being treated merely as a pawn to the main family, he immediately contacted one of the other families he was suppose to keep an eye on and sent them a proposal to sell some information he knew about the Kyou family. After receiving a rather decent sum of money, enough for him to start a new life, he simply disappeared, cutting off all communication with the main family.

To the Kyou family, Hye's disappearance was a thorn in their sides for many reasons other than the amount of money they had to pay the family Hye sold their information to keep their mouths shut. If they started to actively search for him, the other families would be aware of what happened and would try to contact him in order to use him against them. Other than that, there was also the fact that it would stain their image and their pride even more if such thing became public. As such, the best option was to simply turn a blind eye and erase every record that the main family had about Hye. In other words, completely erase any proof of his existence from their family records.

Other:
Hye is able to live comfortably using the money he received by selling information from the Kyou family in a small, but comfortable apartment he bought for himself and pay for his studies. Despite that, he still does a few odd jobs when he needs money, including tutoring other mages due to his knowledge.
Hye speaks Japanese and Korean fluently. His english, although very good still has a deep accent.

The Five Senses

That's a good idea. The fact that the message was partially send could also create some interesting situations...

Also, separating the group also seems a solid idea. DB escapes, Karina defeats Talya but it's wounded in the fight and unable to immediately go after Týfurkh. Later they would make a plan for the rescue mission or something?

The Five Senses

@Jerkchicken

Hm... Karina will probably be really troubled if Týfurkh gets captured, since his ability basically could be their best chance to get out of the city. If possible she would try to rescue him. With a plan ofc.

@Pezz570
That could work, but if Tayla injured Karina she would stop 'playing' with her and just go for the kill if she met her again.

Fate/Eternum

Well, anyways... Will have my CS done by tomorrow. (Probably a servant CS too) ^^

Sorry for the delay. Been searching for a good IMG and thinking about my character.
