Tale of the mage hero [Completed]

The Empath

I didn't need to hear anything else. I knew what Damien was, what he had done. "Empath. You're an Empath aren't you?" I say to damien while everyone looks either surprised or satisfied as some had probably already figured that may be the case.

"Yes, I am. I heard rumors about you. People said you were mentally unstable and sociopathic... because of my powers I was treated like a freak by others because I too, was unstable and awkward. I couldn't control this power so I could feel too many emotions and the only one to help me were spirits and mom. They saved me from drowning amongst the voices. To me, they were my heroes. I wanted to use my power to help lift others up like a true hero." He said with a stern face.

"But why me? If you heard that I wasn't stable then why? You could've gone with any of the other heroes so why?" I said with tears in my eyes. "Because the spirits said the others weren't true heroes. They don't care about us or this world aside from the shield. And he's on a downward spiral. They said that you and him were my key to being someone's hero. So let me help you! I want to help you. I want to be your mental and emotional support. I'm not great at fighting, but no one knows the land better than I! With the help of the spirits I can make your job easier. So please, let me help you!" I nodded happily. I didn't need anymore reason to take him with me. He's sincere, and he's willing.

I just hope I don't disappoint him. That's what I hate more than anything. Being a disappointment. "But what about your mother? Who will help her run the store and stay healthy?" His smile brightened. "Don't worry! I already got some spirits to agree to take care of her. They're really nice and love our sweets. Say hello to Mara and Mora!" He gestures to two twins who appeared in a puff of smoke holding giant spoons.

"I'm mara." The left says emotionlessly. "I'm Mora! It's nice to meet you!" The right one says with a cheesy grin and a preppy attitude. I smile back. "Its nice to meet you both!" We pick out Damiens armour with the girls help before they head back to the store. Damien ends up getting some unique stuff.

(The claws)

I was surprised at his weapon choice but then again, don't judge a book by its cover right? I also got myself a new weapon... TIS A SWORD! VWALAH!

It was made of obsidian ore and ruby crystal. They weren't hard to fine because of magic but the price for it being made was.... PHENOMENAL. it was worth it though. Now I can be a sword mage! This will be perfect. Now I just gotta keep it a secret until the time is right...

"Let's go see how Naofumi's doing..."

"Actually maho girl he went to the mountains for magic thread..."
