Welcome to Gaia! ::

Neo kept his arms put in his pockets, and he looked up at the ceiling. He thought carefully his words, and said "Then you know very little information about the Dueye. No wonder you haven't gone mad yet."

He then took out his hands out of his pockets, and showed them to her. "Look carefully" he said as his hands looked normal at first, and then some symbols started to show. Like a small sorcery circle in both his hands written in black. He then put them back inside his pockets, and sighed a bit. "I study many many things, but I am something that is farther away from being a sorcerer or a normal alchemist. You have yet to study Kishin power... maybe."

Neo turned his back on her and looked over his shoulder "Follow me." he said with a very serious voice, and as he walked downstairs into the experimentation room.

Neo stopped as they arrived at the experimentation room, and he looked over his shoulder "Why do I sense fear in your soul?" he said very seriously, and started walking toward the book shelf, and sat down on his chair.

He said while he took a book in his hands, and took off his eyeglasses also dissipating them into ashes with his magic "You see, Kishin are demons from Hell that have ended up here in this world. The knights from this town, along with its sorcerers and magicians fought a great war against just one of these Kishin. It was named Ysuka. They captured him and brought him to me some years ago. Should I keep explaining?" He said calmly sitting in his chair and looking at her lazily, and also a bit evily.

"Hmm well with the rest of the explanation, you will know how I can sense people's souls." He answered while, looking at the computer, and wondering of she has noticed how the computer even works, if there is no such thing as computer's.

He opened the book, and went through pages, as he explained more, while looking at specifically one page "You see, once they brought in Ysuka to me... I personally dissected him, but along with him... I dissected myself. I fused my blood with his own, therefore he died during this experimentation, and I have all his good powers, along with his bad powers. I am my own experiment. An example of how his blood works is when you punched me. You felt the skin as hard as steel didn't you? And right after you hit me, the skin itself regenerated." He then pointed with his finger out a part of the book, and said "It's not as simple as I say it here. I am giving you a simple resume. Maybe you would like to know more about the Dueye, now that you have acquired an important piece of what I need?"

Neo answered her with a little laugh, and said "Hahaha! I don't experiment with normal human beings. Much less a half blood. half bloods are mixed blood, and therefore useless to my experimentations." He said as he put the book over the table again, as teh computer shined light at them.

He had his hand over the book, and his other hand just over his lap. "The Dueye is guarded by an extremely dangerous Kishin, known as the Kishin of Madness. His name is Mifune. No one except one person has gotten even within 50 feet of him, and lived to tell the tale. I have the remaining pieces of that piece you have right there, but... to even get close to this Kishin, which guars the Dueye, you have to obtain the three Stones of Light. Maybe you've heard of them?" he asked now looking at her.

Neo answered her while looking up at the ceiling "Your mom was only partly right. Two of them were made for pure evil at first but purified by the gods themselves, these Stones are The Stone of Belief, The Stone of Faith, and The Stone of Sanity. Only with these three stones you only MIGHT not be affected by the Kishin's madness."

He looked at the computer, and asked "You're wondering what that is aren't you?" as he started typing informartion on it, and elvish poem showed up on the screen.

"Basically, yes. The stones don't guarantee complete sanity though. The Kishin is a demon god of Hell, so his power is far greater than the stones. Oh, and you don't die from the madness, people actually kill themselves from so much insanity, before even getting close to the Kishin." He said as he put his hands on the keyboard. "The work contains the sorcery of the full control over life and death. Sorcerers have only been able to make zombies out of people, but I'm talking about full regeneration, or full death. the Shinigami (Grim Reaper) is the only one who holds this kind of magic..."

He typed in to search something else, and found actually pictures of a girl who looked a lot like Mikka. He looked at the picture, and breathed in with a bit of pain. Then he answered "This is run by a magical artifact made by the greatest sorcerer of all time, Arakaiba. This is called the Eternal Engine, and it never runs out of energy. I made this and infused the power of the eternal Engine with it, and I have an infinite amount of energy. It's said that Arakaiba left very strong weapons, and artifacts, some call 'demon tools' or 'legendary weapons' hidden from normal human beings. Only those who truly deserve them, can reach them. I know where some of them are located... I found this artifact in my first expedition."

Neo answered her question, while standing up from his chair, and walking up to his book shelf "Yes, i do leave here now and then, and no. Knights from the city come here only once a month for me to supply the Sorcery Academy with new spells, and enchantments, along with new ingredients for potions and medicines."

Neo took out a book, and put it on te table in front of the computer. It read "Arakaiba's Hidden Secrets". Neo sat down again, and didn't open the book yet when he said "I wrote most of the books that are in this room, but this one..." Then he thought about it twice, and rose up again, and hid it.. He then looked from the shelf to where she was standing, and said "I shouldn't show my secrets to you yet... we've barely known each other more than a day."

Neo sat down again in his chair and sighed in deeply, as he looked at the barred door a few feet away from the computer. He then looked at the picture in the computer, and it reminded him again of how she was singing in the bathroom. He looked blow his shirt to check the dissection scar.

His head started to hurt again, and he took some more pills for pain relief. He stood up, and walked to the potions, and started mixing some ingredients to make some new combinations.
