Trinity: Omniverse Traveling Cat 96 The Otherworlders

The young woman had a darker shade of segreen hair, wear oval gla.s.s, and wear a dark purple mantle above her dark blue, white-trimmed robes. On the desk of the Headmaster, a white little mouse was happily munching on seed, until Alex's eyes fall on it. Like any of his kin when crossing a great cat, the little mouse s.h.i.+ver before bolting in the robes of the old man, bringing him to raise a brow at the sudden att.i.tude of his Familiar.

"Headmaster Osmond."

"Ha, professor Colbert, are everything ok, I was thinking you would lead the second years throughout their Familiar invocation at this time." Kindly say the old man, taking a puff out of his pipe.

"We were, but an unforeseen situation had happened, first, miss Valliere summons a commoner, and a third party was invoked along with the salamander of miss Zerbst." Say, Colbert, a little lost at the situation at hand

"Indeed. That will be all for now, miss Longueville" As his brows rise again while mechanically petting the still s.h.i.+vering little mouse in his hand, as his secretary nod and exit the room.

"Yes, when asking, the young man had said that he was rather sent her than brought." His staff pointing at Alex still holding the pa.s.sed out j.a.panese boy on his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

"Mmm." He raised from his seat, stroking his beard while looking at Alex. He could see that other than his impressive height, he didn't seem to be so much different than any n.o.ble kid down there. "Mister?"

"Alex, Alexander Daren Evans, but call me Alex, I know it can be a mouthful."

"Young Alex, could you bring some light on this?"

"Sure. I was in my land when an approximative two meters high light green oval portal open in front of me, open by a rainbow-colored crystal-like dagger throw by an elderly man."

All in the room were surprised that he possess land on his own, as it would mean that he was in fact n.o.bility.

"Land you say" Alex nods at the man." I was unaware that such a young man has inherited land in the last few years."

"I wouldn't think it was strange, I myself have few suspicions, but could you tell me were we exactly?"

If a little surprised by the question, the old Headmaster didn't show it and respond." You are at Tristain magic school."

"I suppose that is it in the country know a Tristain, then?" He receives a nod for the old man."Does the name of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry or Orario ring any bell for any of you?"

When all shake negatively their head, he simulates a sad sigh.

"As I was thinking, there is a chance that I was either transported too far from my homeland or to another plane of existence altogether."

This time, all of their eyebrows disappear in their hairline in the second part.

"Surely such a thing..." Start Colbert before being interrupted by Alex.

"Are any of you are familiar with the Multiverse theory? No? In short it a theory saying that there isn't a single physical representation of the world, but a mult.i.tude of it, each similar or not to the other. Looking at the clothes of the fellow on my shoulder, I dare says that he isn't for his land either and not from mine, so that would signify that in this room are being from three different planes alone, even perhaps four if the salamander isn't native of this world too."

That information blows the minds of all of them.

"How could we know that such a thing is real?" Still unable to believe this, old Osmand asks at Alex.

"Easy, does this world had any elves?"

"Yes, we do."

"Therianthrope?"

"Excuse me?"

"You don't seem familiar with the terms, that already is a good clue that our culture is different, Therianthrope is a term designing humanoid being who show animalistic traits, such as those."

At his words, he hears pops on his head as his tail grows from his backside.

'Such a marvelous sight...' Was a through shared with the two other men.

"How?" Was all that exit the incredulous Kirche at this.

"I'm known as a shapes.h.i.+fter as well as a therianthrope, it signifies that I have total control over my external features, I can be completely looking like a human, to downright turn into the animal my species came from."

"Such a magical thing his possible?"

"It nothing magical, Headmaster, it only an inherent trait of my species, like some of you must be attenuated to certain elements rather than another?" Ask him to ensure at the end, only to receive a confirming nod from the man.

"Truly a fascinating thing, I must report this to the palace at once!"

"What about my situation here?" Ask Alex before the man could start to scribe down his letter.

"Yes, your situation is a rather peculiar case, since you were sent here at the same time that miss Valliere and Zerbst invocation, I will leave you in their care until we had a response from the palace, would any of you two is willing to carters for this young man needs until a solution can be found?" Ask Osmand to the two girls in the room.

They immediately headb.u.t.t, claiming him as their responsibility, throwing insults along the way, before the old Headmaster clear his throat, bringing them back.

"How about this, you will both take a turn on this situation, let say, every three days? It would leave him with a free one."

More an order than a suggestion, they both nod.

"I call dibs on the hottie!" Kirche says as her eyes roam on his body.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Headmaster, I will be in your care for the next three days, miss Zerbst." Says Alex with a slight bow. Turning to Louise, he addresses to an unclear situation until then. "Would you like me to bring this young man somewhere?"

"Ha! my Familiar, yes!"

"You don't seem that much upset that a fellow human was made familiar. " Ask the Headmaster before he could exit the room and follow the others.

"Well, I may look like a human but isn't one, I can't really say that I care about is fate, he still is a stranger for me after all."

Osmand couldn't help but nod at this, they themselves sometimes don't bother with the fate of captured enemies soldiers, it would be a hypocrite to says that his views on the situation are amoral, yet again, they could possibly have a different view on what is amoral from their sides.

"Before I forgot, do you have any other abilities, you do quote a magical school?"

Alex ponders for a moment, before he takes out a wand from his back, aiming at the little mouse he says.

"Engorigo."

An icy blue beam of light exits the wand tip, hitting it and making it grow to the size of a rat.

"Seeing your face, I deduce that your magic system is also different?"

"Quite so." Respond him still impress at the spell.

"It should return to its normal size in a few hours, I think. Do you need something else, Headmaster?"

"That should be all, mister Evans."

"In that case, I wish you a good afternoon."

He softly closes the door behind him before making his way down the stair to catch with the others.

##########################################

-Was it wise to show them your ability to do magic?-

'I think it was, You hear how different headdresses to me after that, and the other boy, I would think they are frozen in a middle-ages mentality, the n.o.ble must be the ones wielding magic and the commoner, the others peoples. With me showing that I'm kind of sort, this should be made things a little smoother for us.'

-When you say it like that, it sure better.-

'That doesn't mean I'm going to stay clueless with the situation around their, first I need to be financially independent, I don't like the fact they could take leverage that the care of me to be able to make concession out of me. Others that the wand, do I have something else from the gift?'

-Other than you storage s.p.a.ce unsealed; your throwing knives and your blades are the only thing.-

'It doesn't matter, I have still my alchemy, it shouldn't take long to obtain some fund, worst came to worst, I can borrow a little money for one of the two ladies and pay them back later.'

-Mm.-

I rapidly catch up with the three that have at a point stop when they see that I wasn't following.

"Sorry, the Headmaster had still another question to ask before freeing me."

Seeing that he didn't develop further, none ask questions, thinking that if the Headmaster asks it privately, it must be made to stay that way.

While Colbert returns to his thing on is own, I follow Louise, who leads me in what seems to be a dormitory of a sort. It was situated in the center tower, so it didn't take long for us to reach it. When she opened the door, I could see a four-poster bed, a large wardrobe, a dressing table on its side with a large mirror in, and a four sitting table in the center of the room.

Only the far wall was a little concave, following the tower shape.

"You can put it here." Pointed Louise at the stack of hay on the side of the bed.

Giving a quick look over, he knows that the room is richly decorated from this period, and must signify that she either had money or her parent does. Carelessly putting the still sleeping boy on it, I made my way to the door, leaving her with her new familiar.

"So, what now?"

"Came."

I could see the greed and l.u.s.t in her eyes as she invite me to follow her in a sultry voice. Without much choice, I follow her to the other side of the tower, were sit her own bedroom. Looking in it, it was rather similar to the one of Louise.

'Must have constructed them all similar.'

What I didn't see earlier was a door on the opposite wall where her wardrobe was.

"This is?"

"Ha, each room has a private bathroom, even if the school has a common one with a large bath in the bas.e.m.e.nt, one for male and female each."

"Do you know where I could sleep."

I see her raise a brow.

"You do know that I'm n.o.bility, right?"

"So? I came from a world where we have long side behead ours after revolting against their tyranny, our countries are no longer lead by royalty but elected dirigent. The n.o.bility had become nothing more than a relic of past without real power, so.."

###############################

Alex could easily see the shocked face of Kirche.

"Beheaded?! How were you able to do so?!"

"Contrary to your world, magic users have form small communities and separated from the outside world. They have done so because they were thinking that they were superior to the commoners. With the disappearance of magic and the ever-growing population dissatisfied with the tyrant in power, it was only a question of time as to when we would rebel. As for the magic communities, the pureblood in place didn't want to lose they power on the common other magic-user and commoner, so they close their communities, lulled in their their inbred way that they were still the apex predator, not knowing that if they so wish, those same commoner could crush them any time."

"How?"

"Simple, From where I came from, it was a little island know as England, the magical population was no more than 20,000 strong while the other side had hundred of thousand only in the military. It also helps that civilization was much more advanced. In fact,t eh magical community is around this era of development. The outside world is at least three centuries ahead in development. To give you an idea, a single aerial raid would be enough to exterminate the wizard population, and my Island is a small country, other nations have billions of leaving being that coudl go against the messy hundred thousand of magical. So, it not really strange for me to not care about your n.o.bility t.i.tle."

"Don't you fear that I could bring you down on my own?"

Before she could finish her frase, he was already at her side, locking her arms in a stealthy but still soft clutch.

"And what would you do now?" says him, raising a brow at her.
