Baal's Secondary Magic Training

It hadn't been long since the last time Baal had come here.  The portal he stepped out of closed behind him as he stood before the twin griffon statues and looked at the strange jewel once again.  The Break in Time was where he was sent to.  A place that looked a lot like Elysium but with strange differences.  That was the world created by Master Seiryn, so would the Break in Time still look like.  He did come here with the intention of, perhaps, running into Master Seiryn again.  She was his only link to Elysium and the only person who could teach him.

Baal cleared his throat as he approached the "Gem of Time" and placed his hand upon it before feeling his body scattered once more, being sucked into the gem.  After a brief moment of nothingness, Baal found himself holding his hand out in a completely white space.  Baal looked around completely confused.  This was a great departure from the last time he was here.  

Baal looked around, seeing nothing but white as far as the eye can see.  He cleared his throat as he looked around, beginning the panic. He was alone here.  "Where am I?" he asked loudly.  His voice echoed and reverberated, as if he was in a large, hollowed cavern.  Baal shouted once more.  "Where the hell am I!?  This isn't the same place I came to the last time I was here at the Break in Time!"

Baal looked around even more, not hearing anything.  He cleared his throat and sighed outward.  "So this is the true face of the Break in Time, I see," he said as he walked around.  Baal walked around briefly for a moment before stopping and looking upwards, shouting again.  "I know you're watching me!  Answer me!"

"I also know that you want to get stronger so you can retake your kingdom, right?" she said as she placed her arms around Baal's arm, pressing her chest into his arm in a teasing manner.  She giggled a bit before clearing her throat.  Baal simply glared at the strange creature turned girl for a moment.  "Awww, don't look at me like that, Your Majesty.  I'm here to teach you something interesting," she said before moving away from Baal, spinning and dancing away from him.  

"Alright then, Lilith," he stated, addressing this strange creature by the name it wished to be addressed as.  "Show me something worth-while," Baal said, crossing his arms as he watched the little girl giggle and jump up in the air.  Her over-inflated breasts bounced happily.  This caused Baal to groan a bit.  

Releasing her grip from Baal, she pointed away from them and summoned a large armored knight.  "Oh, yeah, I'd suggest defending yourself against this thing.  It's an S-Ranked creature," she said before bouncing a bit, having the shirt barely keep her shirt on.  

"Damnit!  Put on an actual shirt, it's distracting!" he said before gripping his scythe.  The two of them separated before a large hand slammed into the ground.  Baal cleared his throat and powered up a Phantom Fist to hit the creature, only for the Phantom Fist to be bounced off of the enemy.  This caused Baal's mouth to drop a bit.  The only reason Baal could think of his spell bouncing off of the creature was because it was wearing magic armor.

"You summoned something with magical armor!?" he asked before getting clobbered by a punch from the heavily armored beast before being flung into the endless nothingness.   He was met with a big grin from the girl as her breasts continued to bounce as if gravity didn't matter.

The one named Lilith ran around in order to become clearly visible to Baal before holding her hand out, stopping an attack from the large creature.  The creature stopped for a moment.  There was a strange calming for a brief moment.  A strange reddish brown stain began to gather upon the creature's armor where Lilith's hands were.  Clearing her throat, she jumped up and kicked the creature's armored hand and jumped away from it.  A big grin crossed her face as she turned and looked towards Baal.

She walked towards the taller man and slapped her hands together.  Baal raised a brow, still having his weapon ready before the girl swung around Baal and swung her hand over to swat him on the behind.  "Your turn, big boy.  You should be able to cover this one," she said with a big giggle as she squatted behind Baal for a moment to watch him take on the creature.  Looking up to the creature, the brown stain began to spread all over the creature.     

Clearing his throat, he held the Black Moon tightly in his hand before disappearing for a moment, only to appear above the creature's head, spinning with his scythe in hand and letting the blade connect with the helmet of the creature.  By this time, the creature's helmet was covered in the same reddish-brown stain that it's hands were.  Baal made contact with the helmet, having the tip of his scythe dig into the creature's helmet.  It felt too easy for the blade to penetrate the helmet.  

Holding his scythe in the helmet, Baal planted his feet firmly into the creature's helmet, finding himself standing upon a wall.  Baal run down the creature's front end, pulling the scythe with him as the blade literally shrieked as it gets pulled down the creature's armor until it reached the crotch of the armor, freeing him and his scythe from it's grip. 

After landing on his feet away from the creature, he turns around and faces the creature once more, seeing it peeled open like a ripped can.  Baal breathed heavily before noticing the creature turning completely brown all over.  A strange dust began to fly from the creature, floating like motes of dust in the air.  The smell of metal was everywhere in the air as Lilith jumped onto Baal's back, placing her nearly exposed breasts next to his face.  Baal grumbled a bit, keeping his eyes away from the loose garments doing a poor job covering the 'Observer of Time'.  

She punched the air in front of her causing her breasts to jiggle more.  "Seriously!  Put on an ACTUAL shirt!" Baal shouted out as the creature began to crumble.  The brown dust falling to the ground  at an increased pace.  Realizing what happened, he noticed that the floating brown motes and the brown staining upon the armor was rust.  After Lilith touched the creature's hands, it immediately turned the hands to rust.  "So that was the only way I was able to pierce it's armor," he said out loud.

"BINGO!"  shouted Lilith as she jumped down off of Baal and stood in front of him as the creature continued to fall behind her.  "Of course, you aren't too bad at fighting though, but you weren't strong enough to fight that thing, now were you?" Lilith asked as she put the shades back over her face with a quick and sharp nod of her head.  She turned around and watched as the large metal creature started to fall and crumble.  She threw a hand up into the air and jumped up in celebration.  Even at this angle, Baal could see her rather large breasts jiggle due to the 'shirt' she was wearing.    

Lilith smiles and turns back around to look towards Baal.  "O thrown-out king of Elysium, I know you have come here to obtain the power of the Light Blades, but I offer you something even greater.  I have watched you since you were born until now as I have watched others who were born and died.  Since you have come to me, I have chosen to intervene and give you what you wish for; vengeance," she said with a big and toothy grin.  

"Why bother having something everyone else has?  Light magic is simple and over-used.  Why not have something like 'the power of decay' on your side?  The ability to cause anything to decay and whither into nothingness.  The power of death in your very hands," Lilith said as she held out her hand to Baal, as if to enter into a contract with him.  "What I'm trying to say is; make a contract with me and I'll give you what you desire."

Baal's heart began to race at the idea of having the very power of destruction.  Something that time could do.  Everything crumbles under the great weight of time and this creature with big breasts is willing to grant Baal the power to basically turn anything to dust in a mere instant.  The longing for a power like that to destroy everything in his path.  Baal swallows hard as his hand slowly moved towards Lilith's hand.  His hand shook as the idea of strength caused Baal to enter a euphoric state of mind.

Licking her lips as Baal grabbed her hand, she lunged into Baal and jumped up, planting her lips upon Baal's lips.  A strange magic circle surrounded the two for a moment during the kiss.  Afterward, the magic circle faded away with the girl wiping her lips with her hand.  "You aren't half bad!" she said with a giggle.    

Baal spit out and tried to cleanse his tongue after realizing what he just did with this girl.  He remembered it's true form and could only thing about having kissed that thing instead of the cute girl in front of him.  While Baal spit out what was left of the kiss, the girl turned her back to Baal and placed her fingers upon her chin.  "But then again, i don't have a reference on whether you're good or bad or not.  You were the first person I made a contract with like that," she said with a bit of a giggle.  

Baal wiped his mouth as his eyes watered from the stress of him spitting out the kiss.  "Contract?  What do you mean?" he asked before regaining his composure.  

The girl looked around and held her hands out, showing her palms.  "You know, an agreement.  You're like Faust, after all.  You made a deal with me, an Observer of Time, for me to give you the 'Power of Decay'," she said thoughtfully before looking upwards.

"I know you wouldn't give me something for nothing.  What do I have to give to you in return?" Baal stated before the girl simply turned around and leaned forward just enough to show plenty of cleavage and maybe a bit more.  

"I get to take your soul and your powers when you die," she said as she stood up, causing her breasts to jiggle a bit more.  But thankfully to Baal, he wouldn't be subject to seeing that.  it wasn't that Lilith's current form wasn't bad looking, but the fact that this was once something so hideous it was beyond comprehension was what bothered him.  Baal's jaw dropped a bit.  

"What!  I didn't agree to that!"  Baal simply stated as the girl shrugged her shoulders, moving the darkened glasses upon her forehead.  "Oh my, I forgot to mention the fine-print, huh?"

Lilith shrugged her shoulders a bit before taking a seat, indian-style, upon the ground.  The ground had a light dusting of the reddish-brown from the rust of the iron giant.  Noticing that there was some left, Lilith began to draw something casually as Baal tried to wrap his head around what just happened.  She started to hum to herself as Baal looked awestruck.  "What!?" he shouted out loud.  "So I entered into a contract with you without knowing the repercussions?  You must have tricked me!" he said as he stomped over to the girl, grabbing her by her shirt and attempted to pick her up.  

Baal blinked as all that he brought up with him was the shirt, turning his eyes down to look at Lilith to see her completely topless.  A blush came over his face before throwing the loose cloth back at Lilith.  Being that Lilith is taking a different shape, it felt no shame.  Lilith grabbed the shirt and stretched her back towards Baal, pushing her large breasts towards him.  

"Damnit!  At least put on some clothes!" Baal shouted, turning his eyes a bit.  Normally, he wouldn't care about nudity.  Perhaps being together with Baal made seeing other women like this feel like taboo.   Shrugging her shoulders, she puts the little cloth that she called a shirt, back upon her, covering herself up.  

A giggle could be heard from Lilth before she shrugged her shoulders again.  "You agreed to it, so it's a bit too late to take it back," she mentioned.  "Your problem, not mine, Buck-o."

Baal extended his hand outwards, the scythe folded itself.  He strapped the weapon back upon his back and scowled at Lilith.  "Fine, since I'm stuck with it, teach me how to use it."

A giggle came from Lilith.  "That's the spirit, my little student!" 

Master Lilith jumped up a bit, intentionally causing her large breasts to bounce and held up a single finger.  "First thing's first.  You understand what decay is, right?" she asked as she winked at the man.  "I only ask because you Elysians don't die often, so the idea of decay might be foreign to you."

Glaring at the little imp, Baal nodded his head.  "I know what decay is.  Food spoils even if we don't," Baal stated with a bit of annoyance in his voice.  He might as well go along with this training if he is stuck in this contract.  

Slapping her hands together, the little imp tilted her head in delight.  "Good!  That makes things a bit simpler now.  Now all you have to do is consider that everything, both organic and inorganic can and will break down at some point.  Whether it decays through being 'spoiled' or whether it breaks down through erosion.  Everything can and will be deconstructed," she said before clearing her throat.  "Except for atoms, of course.  But that's for another time," she said trying to avoid a large scientific lecture.  

"But everything else has a breaking point.  Much like that thing's armor," she said as she hooked a thumb towards the pile of rust behind her.  With a swift nod of her head, her shades returned to over her eyes.  Lilith turned back to look towards Baal with a sly grin upon her face.  Lilith looked down and pointed her finger to the bottom of what one would call a shirt and the material of the shirt began to disappear.  

Baal, out of reaction, reached for her hand to remove it from her shirt.  "Seriously, stop that," Baal stated, stopping the decaying process.   Lilith simply giggles and puts her hands behind her back and turned her head to the side.

"The majority of what you'll be decaying will be inorganic matter.  Later on, when you get stronger, you'll be able to cause organic matter to decay, but let's keep things simple, alright?" she stated with a bit smile before lifting her hand up to summon a large stone wall.  The stone wall looked relatively indescript with no special features upon the wall.  The wall was 3 inches thick and was something he could easily knock down with a Phantom Fist.  

"Now now!  I want you to touch this thing with your bare hands and think about it eroding away quickly.  And yes, you must use your bare hands, which means no gloves and none of those gropey invisi-hands either," she said before taking a step back, giving Baal the stage.  

Removing the glove on his left hand, Baal stood in front of the wall and placed his palm flat upon the it.  He closed his eyes as he began to concentrate on the wall decaying to dust.  His levels of concentration began to vary as he began to look strained.  The very fact that Baal could feel the wall still there bothered him.  "Now you stay that way until you put a hole in that wall, okay?" she stated before bouncing off again.

With a groan, Baal opened his eyes and turned the wall to dust.  A voice in the distance could be heard as another wall showed up.  "That's cheating.  No using your Mystic Hands!" the voice stated.  Baal grumbled once more.  He was a fool to believe that one that observes time wouldn't still be watching him even when she's not here.  Lifting his bare left hand up to the wall, he placed his hand flat upon this one as well and closed his eyes to concentrate on the task at hand.  

~ Turn to dust.  Turn to dust.  Turn to dust. ~ he chanted to himself, but the wall remained stalwart.
