16 Ignis

The two who headed back home immediately changed Noah's appearance. The guys delicate cherry lips were now replaced with a little tint of brown and orange. His hair that was originally white turned black.

The guy's pale skin was not that much of a problem. The two of them changed some new clothes. Jack who has a fair status in his family was given a white robe with his family insignia on his back and the clan's badge at the front. The family crest was a hammer of blue surrounded by flames while the family badge was a flame demons face.

This was his formal clothing in the clan every time he visits in the winter. This was a symbol which meant that he is already a chosen talent of his family. His bracer from both hands with rosy gold color and a black metal earing on the left ear. This made him look like a mage comparable to his otaku dream. Seeing himself in the mirror he wore a smug face.

Noah on the other side wore a blackish brown sleeve with black skinny pants. Matching his neat black hair, he looks like a noble.

"Eh, big brother, you look like a martial artist from those movies in earth"

Jack turned at Noah with shining eyes then patted him on the back while smiling. "Ah… Noah you… ehe… ehe… ehe…"

Noah looked at Jack who was very delighted by the compliment "Ehhhhh…..???"

'Is brother really an otaku? Hmm… if that is true then I will see them in a new perspective'

Jack looking at Noah's weird looks finally understand what he did 'Ah…. So embarrassing'

"Eh Noah… I….."

"It's alright big brother. I understand…"

"Eh….?" 'Uh, he understands. What a thoughtful little brother'

"Uhhh…anyway, we should go visit uncle now…"

"Mystique, you should stay here for a while. Aiko might not be able to control herself in front of you"

"ruuu"

Mystique lowered her head in a depressed manner.

Jack turned around and left with Noah. They went to a ragged house 5 blocks away.

This is his uncle Reinard's house.

Reinard Kinsmith is his uncle. Once known as the future of the family youngest generation but due to a conspiracy, his future was crippled. He was an adventurer at heart and loves to write about his adventures. His Mana points were said to be crippled. He spends most of his days at his farm and his daughter Aiko.

Jack walked in front of the door and gave it a knock.

"Aiko, It's me Jack. I came to visit you and uncle"

"AHHHH…. JACKKKUUUUUU...…" A girl's shout was heard, and then the door immediately opened. Aiko wearing simple clothes for commoner immediately pounced on Jack.

"Jack…. Dadda is sick again…" Aiko hugging Jack started sobbing really bad.

"Aiko… I am here now. We will take care of uncle together. I finally finished my training in teacher Arch's place and will be staying here for a few years before my adventure"

Aiko who was sobbing noticed Noah's good-looking figure immediately wiped his tears and let go of jack.

"Jack, who might this be?"

"Ahm… Aiko. This is my adopted brother Noah… Don't we look the same?"

Jack with head held high looking at Aiko. Aiko pushed Jack from the way that made Jack shocked at what Aiko did.

Immediately Aiko held Noah's hands "Uhm nice too meet you, I am Aiko… ahh, are you really Jack's adopted brother? Then you are my cousin from now on, right?" Aiko was smiling very charmingly and even tucking her hair behind her ears.

Noah only looked at Aiko with a confused face. Noah glancing at Jack he was even more confused.

Jack, on the other hand, was jaw dropped at the situation with bulging eyes. 'Eh… Eh… Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…. Is this my cousin? I am sure she was courted by many young kids inside the clan due to her beauty. Is Noah's unknown ability having something to do with charming women? That might be...Yes, that really might be...'

"Uhmm, nice to meet you to cousin Aiko. Please do take care of me from now on" Noah smiled holding Aiko's hands.

"Uhmm. Sister Aiko is fine, adding cousin as an honorific is really distant. From now on let's call each other like brothers and sisters. Come, let's go inside. I want to know more about you and your travel's."

Aiko then dragged Noah inside…

Jack was looking at the opened door… "Eh… Eh... Ehhhhhhh… Did they forget about me? Ahhhh fine! I think it should have been better if Mystique is here..."

-----

Jack and Noah were sitting in a shabby chair in front of a wooden table with Aiko. They were drinking tea. Tea was not known in this world and thanks to Noah's knowledge from earth, he was able to introduce it to Aiko.

" Eh… really? Noah is really great. You really trained well"

"Aiko, like I said it's all due to big brother's help"

"But, still you worked hard in your training right?"

"umm" Noah nodded

Jack looking at the two talking sweetly was bleeding inside his heart. 'Eh is this the feeling of seeing your friends hitting on each other while you're single. Why did I never tried to have a girlfriend before? Ahhhhh'

"You two stoppppp… Aiko, we came to visit Uncle Reinard so please lead the way to his room"

Aiko then got serious. Standing from her chair she walked to a door from the room "Come this way. Please do not be surprised when you see him"

Jack and Noah nodded their heads and followed.

--

Opening the room and a gush of steam came out.

The room was dimly lit and to their surprise, the one that was making the light was Aiko's father Reinard.

His hair was burning. Jack was already accustomed to these changes whenever his uncle was having his bad days. Noah, on the other hand, was a little bit shocked.

Reinard's eyes were of enigmatic blue along with a shaved mustache and beard with lean body type, with his tanned skin, he looks like the incarnation of a fire deity.

He is sitting on a boiling tub of water. He is constantly soaking water in his polo shirt of brown but in just a few minutes they turn into steam.

This was his uncle's sickness after he got crippled. His hair burning was apart of his innate ability gone berserk, but Jack does not really know about it due to his uncle's higher level before.

Jack immediately used his appraisal and found the cause.

Looking at the result made his legs turn soft. He almost stumbles.

"Ignis" Jack groaned.

Hearing Jack Reinard turned stiff and looked at him "Jack… You...."

'Ahhh god of luck is really not on my side. you think I forgot about you!. it's all your fault... Mystique is home. I do not stand a chance. What terrible luck.'

'Mystique come here now' Jack immediately sent a mental message to his familiar.

'Rurrru...'

Noah and Aiko were both confused looking at Jack's sweating face and Reinard's smiling face.

"Uhmm… dadda Jack and Noah came to visit you"

Reinard looking at jack he felt confused. Looking at Noah behind, he was shocked. 'Lance's descendant'

"Aiko, get out of the room and leave them here"

"But dadda…" Aiko argued but Reinard looked at her frowning.

"Aiko, listen and wait outside. NOW!"

Aiko bit her lip, but nodded and walked out of the room.

Jack looking at the door closing felt worried. He calmed himself thinking that this guy was still limited by his uncle's body.

His ability is much of higher ability, but it felt weaker when it comes to his uncle's ability. An ability that focuses both on multiple aspects. An almost perfect ability. Along with Ignis's unknown abilities, it's hard to say if he has any chance.

Noah who was still confused about the situation patted Jack's shoulder.

"Big brother, your uncle is weird"

'Noah how can your joking sense always comes when it does not fit the situation'

"Jack… care to explain how did you found out about me?"

"Ehh, Uncle what are you talking about. Of course, dadda told me about your condition. It's getting worst, isn't it? Look your hair were starting to change color" Jack scratching the back of his head smiling at Reinard.

"Cut the nonsense Jack. That's too obvious. Can't you lie a lot better"

'ahhhh… the pressure made me subconsciously act stupid'

"Uhm… Uncle care to explain?" Jack immediately forced a poker face.

"Jack, you still call me uncle?" Reinard looking at him with a grin.

"Then Ignis, why did you possess my uncle?"

"Jack, it's simple. I lost my body?"

'Bulllsssssss. Is that even an explanation?'

"You are not afraid that I will spread your secret?"

"Try and your uncle and most of your clan will die… do you think I do not have the power?"

"then what do you want me to do?"

"Give me that boy"

"Noah?"

"Yes, I want to possess him instead. He is not a part of your clan, right?"

"Never… He is more important to me than the clan. Ask for something else"

"You do not have a choice here…"

[flame dash]

Immediately a blurry fire went pass Jack and Ignis was in front of Noah grabbing him in the Neck lifting him up.

"Your mine, Ahahahahahaha" A demon like laughter was heard.

"You…" Jack immediately gave a punch to Ignis's side. But the blow did not even hit like he was hitting air instead.

"Freakin acorn, that's unfair"

The door opened, and Aiko was shocked at the scene. "Dadda what are you doing?"

"Aiko run... This is not your father" Jack was trying his best to remove Ignis but every time he attacked, he was passing like air.

Ignis did not bother looking at them and immediately his hair burned brighter, and his eyes turned bright blue. A fiery aura came out of his mouth directly entering Noah's mouth.

"NO! You monster…"

Renard's body fell along with Noah's.

"Dadda!" "Noah!" Jack and Aiko immediately went beside the two.

Noah's clothes burned, and his hair returned to its original white color. His left eye was red while the right was violet.

Noah stood up and the fire around him stopped. His eyes returned to their blue color.
