Standing on the edge of a fifteen meter tall building was a towering man over seven foot two in height/ The man was young in age, in his early twenties with flowing long black hair that reached the nape. THe young man had hardened dark gray hues that rested within those pearly white eyes taking in the sights all around him. His face was sleek with a defined chin and astute nose with a curved bridge. His eyes were sleek and sharp with thin eyebrows that could cut through paper. Stray strands of hair hang down framing the sides of his face as if hugging them. He was dressed from head to toe in a black attire. He had forsaken his typical attire and opted for something a little different. While he wasn't wearing a suit the mage who belonged to Phantom Lord was dressed in a formal attire. He wore long black baggy trousers with a black belt looped through the holes. His socks were white and shoes a sparkling black dress shoe. Over top he wore a white collared shirt with the top two buttons undone showing his defined muscular chest. Over the top of that was a silk black jacket left undone allowing it to flap about in the winds breeze.

The newly born lycan raised his right hand and clenched a fist before unclenching it. Just over a day had gone by since Yami had gone to investigate the murders in the woods and stumbled upon the Uncontrollable werewolf that had been slaughtering in the forest around oak. On meeting it he had tangled with the beast battle with it. In their little scuffle he had managed to not only wound the beast but kill it, but in the end it had not only scratched but also bit him. Whatever happened had somehow caused Yami to become a lycan himself. Once he had been bitten he had transformed beneath the moon light into some wolf man like form. His height had grown exponentially and his muscles expanded as a wave of power coursed through his veins.

Since that night he had been experimenting with his new powers, going out late after dark in order to stalk the shadows. He had found outside of his transformation he had a superior sense of smell allowing him to pick up scents within a twenty five meter radius around him. On top of that his physical abilities had soared. Strength, Endurance and Speed had been heightened. He was faster, stronger and more durable than before. On top of it he could also transform which made him grow in height and muscle mass. In this form he grew fur on his hands, along his chest and his face. His teeth would grow, his hair became wild and his eyes glowed red. In it his abilities would be strengthened once again. While this transformation was nothing like he had seen that night, being unable to turn completely into a giant bipedal wolf, it was still a great discovery. With it he had been able to pick up targets during the night using a sense of smell chase them down and rip them apart. The glorious thing was he could still use magic.

Transforming from a human into a member of the lycan race hadn't removed his ability to perform magic. Yami was still able to cast his spells without being affected, even able to cast them in his transformed state. Sure his transformation would consume his magical reserves but it was something he could live with. Yami only needed to find some way to increase his mana pool in order to not only sustain the Lycan transformation for longer but also his magical spells. Being able to use magic in his transformed state was like a gift from the heavens. It could for a word made him feel almost unstoppable. The psychotic wind mage couldn't help but laugh at the thought. With this new power he was much stronger and as he continued to build his strength it would only grow.

THe newly born Lycan with a wind elemental magic and aligned to the Phantom Lord guild, the only dark guild in oak, shoved his hands in his trouser pockets and looked back down at the ground from the rooftop he stood on. The lycan took a step forward and allowed his body to fall towards the cobblestone streets below. The wind rushed up hitting him in the face, flapping around him. Feeling the wind on his skin made the towering giant of a man smile with glee. He always enjoyed the sensation of the wind on his body, and as a wind mage it should only be natural to feel at ease among the wind he so loved to utilise. The mage extended his right hand and parted his fingers allowing the wind to slip between them, making him chuckle in amusement as it tickled him a little. But soon he turned his focus back on the falling as he was fast encroaching upon the stone streets. With a flick of a wrist the wind blowing around his body began to flow beneath his feet and wrap around Yami's body. the wind began to slow his descent allowing his covered in feet to touch down on the ground without harm coming to his body. Nothing was out of place as Yami landed in the streets. His sudden landing scared those around him as he had just dropped from the sky out of nowhere.

Yami ignored their stupefied looks, like he would be bothered about what the ordinary people of oak thought of him. The twenty something year old lycan with long black hair straightened out his clothing and began walking away from the shocked crowds. Perhaps it was time to find a request to take. It had been boring as of late and perhaps he could find a quest that would allow him to test out his new lycan powers. The towering mage rubbed his hairless chin in thought of the idea. He would have to find a quest that would allow him to either fight a number of opponents in his lycan form, or would allow him to intimidate someone with his overbearing transformation to frighten them beyond recognition. It was a pity he couldn't completely transform into a Werewolf that would surely give someone a death inducing fright, maybe even give them a heart attack and they would die from terror. The thought made the psychotic and sadistic, completely insane wind mage laugh with glee.

His insane laugh scared those around him and made the crowds part allowing him through. Yami ignore them as he walked through the streets of oak towards the bad quest board. He couldn't be bothered going all the way over to Phantom lord, so he would just use the quest board in the middle of town to find himself a bad quest to take for the day. From taking a constant stream of quest over the last week, Yami had earned a decent amount of jewels over five hundred thousand and was soon approaching six hundred, but he would continue to save and wouldn't dare spend anything on a whim. He thought it better to save his funds up encase he really needed it. He had seen a number of impressive and rare items going on sale lately, but he was short on funds and unable to purchase them which annoyed him to no end.

The lycan sighed in annoyance as he focused back on the task at had, to work on his earnings and slowly increase his strength. The lycan made his way through the streets eventually arriving at the bad quest board. He began to look over the C ranks, some of them had already been contemplated and others someone else had already taken. He looked around until he finally locked onto a free quest. The lycan reached out with his left hand and plucked the poster off the board and began to read over the contents. There wasn't that much detail only that Minerva Phantasm was looking to hire someone to lend their assistance to her. The lycan accepted the quest and began making his way towards the Phantasm castle to find out what Minerva wanted.

The journey to Castle PHantasm hadn't been long, but Yami had enjoyed the view and scenery along the way, as he took in the sights. It wasn't the first time he had been to the castle, in fact this would be his third. THe other two times he had visited Yami had been working for MInerva's brother Sirius. Yami didn't care which of the siblings hired him as long as he could earn a little money, as money made the world go round. THe newly born lycan walked up the road to the castle and was greeted by a pair of guards. the mage of phantom lord removed the quest from his body and showed it to the two guards who had crossed their spears in front of him. The guard on the right took the poster and read over it making sure it was legitimate. Seeing his mistresses signature at the bottom the two of them parted their spears and allowed Yami to walk on through. Yami retrieved the poster and thanked them as he entered into the old noble castle.

Yami as he walked in was greeted by a young maid with cat ears atop her head. The mage didn't say a word as the maid welcomed him and escorted him into a room where he would find Minerva seated in a chair sipping tea. ON arriving the woman greeted him and thanked him for coming. "You may be wondering just why I requested help. You see daddy has assigned me to take part in some boring meeting with some merchant about diplomatic discussions. Daddy wants me to persuade them into signing our agreement but its just so much of a hassle. Instead what I want you to do is intimidate them into signing the paper. The merchant is in the next room so capture him and a maid will show you down to the chambers. Feel free to use what ever methods to make him sign, just don't damage his right hand or else he can't sign." spoke the young woman in an uncaring tone as she sipped her herbal tea. Yami with his enhanced scenes could smell it from here and the merchant in the next room.

Yami nodded and walked towards the door that led to the other room. He could smell the sickening stench of the man on the other side. Yami went into a crouch and began to growl darkly. Magic flowed through his body as he began to grow in height to eight foot. His muscles expanded to the confines of his clothing making them stretch as the sound of ripping was heard. THe clothes were being tested. Yami kicked off and became a speeding bullet as his hair became wild, eyes glowed red, teeth grew in length becoming sharp and hair formed along his cheeks, hands, chest and legs. Yami exploded into the room catching the merchant seated in the middle of the room.

The sound of doors opening with a bang startled him and before he could comprehend a giant snarling wolf man like creature was upon him. Yami grabbed the man and slammed him down into the ground towering over his pitiful five foot height. the killer intent Yami released made the man piss himself. Yami began dragging the man into the room where Minerva was who was surprised by Yami's appearance. Yami ignored it and threw the man across the room were he crashed into the chandelier on the roof breaking it. Minerva didn't say a word.

Yami approached and stomped down on the man's right leg and growled out, "Sign!" the man cried out and nodded his head rapidly afraid of the snarling beast like man. Minvera giggled and waved to her maid. The maid gulped and approached the two handing the merchant a contract to sign. The merchant quickly scribbled his signature down and begged to be taken away from the giant beast. With a wave of her hand two guards entered and dragged the man away. Yami turned back to Minerva but she had already left. The maid from before walked over with a tray holding a stack of jewels. Yami grabbed the money and left.
