Infinite Magus

As Clay observed the mark his consciousness felt like it was being pulled out of his body as he collapsed to the floor. He found himself standing in a dark pool of water, in front of him, far ahead, stood two thrones, one black, one white, two figure sat there. One with flowing white hair, and the other with short black hair. They felt, dangerous.

"What the hell…"

The one with black hair laughed, their voice booming, before zipping in front of Clay before he could blink.

"So, you are the boy. Next time, you oughta call on my power instead of His."

"…what the hell are you talking about?"

"Hm, you clearly just don't remember. Oh well, that's unfortunate. Next time you're in trouble just shout my name kay?"

"And what is your name?"

"Its ◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️◼️—"

The man with white hair flashed in front of Clays eyes.

"Times up, kid."

Clay was back where he started. Except he was face deep into the floor. And there was a guy standing in front of him.

"…you know, I didn't expect you to be in this state when I heard that you were all better."

Clay sighed, and lifted his head up to look.

"And who the hell are you?"

"Prince Cole Ignias. I'm Nora's fiancé."

"Hm, first time I'm hearing of such a thing."

"It's been kept under wraps."

Cole helped Clay up. 

"And what business do you have with me, your highness?"

Cole looked at Clay for a moment, Clay sensed a slight shift in his facial expression, but it seemed normal.

"Nothing. I've just heard an awful lot of talk about you and your incident. Do you think you could tell me a bit more of how you were attacked?"

"What exactly do you want to know?"

"Just tell me what what happened."

"I was just walking. I encountered two people, a cloaked man and woman, they seemed pretty visibly insane, I fought both of them for like 10 minutes, and then I passed out and woke up this morning. That's all I remember."

"…alright. You're probably good to go back to your dorm now, Clay."

Clay nodded and Cole left the room. Clay went back to his dorm and fell onto the bed and sighed.

"That weird guy in…whatever the hell that was. He said that I used that guys power. The guy that hit me at the end of the…I'll just call it a dream. And that his name was…shit I can't remember…"

He sighed and pulled Ophi out of the seal on his right arm.

"Why are you hiding in my arm like this? There's no point in talking to a baby snake. But Ophi has to know something…"

He sighed as Ophi slithered back into his arm. Oddly he couldn't remember how he came up with the name. It kind of, appeared in his head, an instinctual thought.

"Time for some damn rest…"

 Clay fell into a deep slumber, his first dreamless night in a while. But of course, this slumber was very quickly interrupted by a giant chunk of debris hurling into his dorm.
