Chapter 225 - Kaede and Konoka

"Since the two of you, already done, doing your physical training with Nagi and Rakan. So at least the two of you can endure the pain you both will feel while studying Magia Erebea," Evangeline said as she took out the forbidden scroll of Magia Erebea from inside the coat she was wearing. "I think now both of you are ready, to learn Magia Erebea."

"Ma-Master tha-that scroll," Negi said, who was taken aback by the forbidden scroll that was taking out by Evangeline. "Isn't that scroll the same scroll that Shirou-Nii used to put dad's clone, so dad's clone doesn't disappear?"

"The scroll that Shirou uses is the prototype of this forbidden scroll," Evangeline explained. "And the scroll I'm holding is a scroll that contains the way to learn Magia Erebea that I gave to Rakan because I lost a bet to him, in this scroll there is an imitation of myself and another dimension where you two will learn Magia Erebea while risking your lives."

"Master Evangeline, even if you say so. How can we both learn the Magia Erebea in the scroll without anyone telling us both what Magia Erebea is really like?" Asked Kotarou.

"In that case, you'll have to find out for yourself by fighting the other me in this scroll," Evangeline replied with an evil smile on her face. "So now it's better that the two of you quickly get into the forbidden scroll and master the Magia Erebea. Don't waste a time on pointless talk."

Evangeline opened the forbidden scroll of Magia Erebea, when the scroll was finally opened there was a mysterious magic circle that Negi couldn't recognize at all. And also ancient runes that Negi can't read, from the mysterious magic circle on the scroll appeared two hands that suddenly grabbed Negi and Kotarou's head and pulled Kotarou and Negi into the forbidden scroll.

Negi and Kotarou couldn't do anything about it at all, because everything happened so fast. Even the two of them couldn't scream at all, because they were too shocked by the appearance of the two hands.

Evangeline just smirked when she saw what had just happened. Twelve years earlier, she had seen the same sight when Nagi and Rakan had visited Mahora to meet her and study Magia Erebea. And now the same thing is happening again, it's just a different person.

"Those two boys, going to face the other me," Evangeline said. "Whether the two of them can deal with it or not depends on themselves, but the important thing is that neither of them will die even if they lose against the other me. Because I've modified this scroll."

Clone Nagi and Rakan who saw Negi and Kotarou being dragged into the forbidden scroll could only sigh and pray that the two boys who were desperate to learn Magia Erebea, wouldn't be killed when they both had to fight the evil version of Evangeline who was intentionally locked up inside the forbidden scroll.

"It's finally started, the training to use Magia Erebea that will puts their lives on the line," Rakan said. "Whether the two of them can master Magia Erebea or noy, it depends on the determination and mental strength the two boys have."

"The Evangeline within the forbidden scroll is an evil Evangeline with an enormous power equal to our combined strengths," Clone Nagi said with cold sweat dripping down her cheeks. "She appeared because of the vengeful feelings that the original Evangeline had towards Ialda Baoth who is currently reside in my real body. And because Evangeline didn't want her other self to hurt anyone, she sealed her other self within the Magia Erebea scroll."

"What an irony," Rakan said with a sad smile. "A terrifying technique like Magia Erebea could be created by having her other self sealed within the forbidden scroll, but frankly if I could I wouldn't want to fight that evil Evangeline for a second time. Even though I'm now much stronger than when I fought the evil Evangeline in the forbidden scroll, I don't want to fight a monster like her who can keep getting stronger as long as we have negative feelings in our minds."

"Well, the only way to defeat the evil Evangeline is to use positive feelings," Clone Nagi said. "In other words, we must always think positively when we fight it. Which is a very difficult thing to do because when fighting an enemy as strong as her, we will always think negatively."

"We were both really lucky, because that time we were able to defeat the evil Evangeline and managed to master the basic techniques of Magia Erebea," Rakan said who was grateful that he could still survive after risking his life to learn Magia Erebea. "Too lucky in fact, because I wasn't that positive against the evil Evangeline."

"Well, whatever happens what's important is that we're both alive and successful in learning Magia Erebea," Clone Nagi said. "But Jack, do you think the two of them can survive against the evil Evangeline?"

"It could be if they think positively," Rakan said. "Moreover they are both small children, I think their thoughts will be more positive than adults like the two of us."

"I hope so Jack," Clone Nagi said. "I hope so."

In a vast forest surrounded by rocky hills, explosions sounded everywhere. And within that forest, the chuunin Kaede Nagase from Koga was being chased by a large black wyvern with her eyes covered by a cloth. As part of her ongoing training.

"GRAAOOOO!"

The huge black wyvern spouted a fire at Kaede, and Kaede who was trying to sharpen her five senses was having a hard time dodging the flames that came out of the mouth of the wyvern that was chasing her. Fortunately the robe that Kaede is currently wearing is fire resistant. So that Kaede's body doesn't burn.

"With a body that's over twenty meters long and the enormous stamina that that creature possesses, my chances of winning are slim!" Kaede said who kept running and jumping through the trees, without looking back where there was a black wyvern chasing her. "Fortunately my only mission is to cut one of the two horns that the wyvern has!"

Kaede then jumps into the air while using five Kage Bunshin. The black wyvern chased after her and flew into the air, but Kaede had already finished her preparations to fight the black wyvern. Kaede's five bunshins were already holding the Fuma Shuriken which was linked to an iron chain that had been attached to the spell paper.

"Koga Ninpo jutsu! Bakusa! Bakuenjin!"

The five bunshins threw Fuma Suriken at the black wyvern, while the real Kaede was behind the bunshins to activate the move.

"My name is Samanta Vajra Nanhan!"

The five Fuma Shuriken that were linked by chains wrapped around the black Wyvern's massive body. And the spell that Kaede cast made the spell paper tied to the chain explode.

The black Wyvern's body was hit by the explosion at zero range, but the Wyvern's body was only slightly scratched. And have no serious injuries. And one of the Wyvern's two horns was broken, indicating that Kaede had successfully carried out her mission.

On the rocky hill, Konoka who was with Kaede was worried that something bad would happen to Kaede. Just as he heard an explosion sound from within the forest.

"There was a big explosion going on in the forest," Konoka said in a panicked tone. "Let's hope nothing happens to Kaede. Because she's been in the forest for two hours."

"You don't need to worry Konoka-Dono, I successfully completed our mission to cut off the black Wyvern's horns," Kaede said who was carrying the Wyvern's horn on her shoulder. "This way the black wyvern, won't attack the village for a while de gozaru. The wyvern really is a formidable foe."
