Curse the Mainframe! 125 Completed Seal

It took three years before Alec was finally satisfied with the design that he had painstakingly crafted to use on the Sins.

He had tested them extensively and put it through the harshest conditions possible before he finally deemed it ready for use.

In that time, he finally managed to elevate himself from the elemental rank into the transitional stage of foundation. He'd been pleased to learn that his magic capacity was no longer slid back completely or was wiped out every time he tried his hand at Awakening something more than he should be able to handle.

The seal that he'd created to place onto the group that the sect master intended to entrust him with was his most complicated work yet. While he had made a few other arrays, barriers and seals outside of this seal, the added hours that he had put in couldn't compare to the effort that he'd poured into the seal that the sect master had asked him to design.

Incorporating both teleportation seal, magnitude seal and now an authority seal, this triple layered seal was Alec's creation using time, effort and a bit of innovative thinking that blended the three seals together into one.

Seated before Dorian, Alec presented the seal to him.

Dorian steepled his fingers together as he listened to Alec talk about the seal that he was finally satisfied with, his lack of expression failing to give anything away.

By the time Alec finally finished talking, a translucent screen popped up in front of him.

The onslaught of messages briefly caused his vision to blur – or it would have had he not Awakened his vision previously.

Alec uncharacteristically felt like punching the air. Finally! They *finally* maxed intimacy with the sect master! The man had been stubbornly hovering at the [999/1000] points of intimacy for as long as six months already.

It had not increased no matter what he did, so Alec theorized that it was because the man still held a bit of reservation for him. Interacting with him for this long, Alec had long realized that the first place in the man's heart was undoubtedly his son.

Until Alec could show him that he produced a seal that would not cause them any harm, the man would never be added to his Main Character Page.

Thus, it had taken a long, long three years before Dorian was finally added into the Main Character Page, a stark contrast to Dominique who literally took a single encounter to max intimacy with him.

Alec was never going to complain again.

He'd entertained the thought that it was just Dominique that had warmed up to him abnormally fast, but if every other Main Character was going to take as much work as Dorian to get close to, then he didn't know whether or not the benefits and costs were worth it.

He still didn't quite know why he was collecting Main Characters in the first place.

Dorian and Alec stared at each in silence until Bunbun and Fenrir, who had obviously grown tired of the silence started playing around.

Bunbun and Fenrir both wiggled their way onto Dorian's lap, startling the man out of his thoughts. The two creatures had finally advanced enough in their natural magic that they were finally able to control their size at will.

Bunbun and Fenrir were now similar length – that was to say, they were about the size of a normal bunny.

Dorian stared down at the two fluffy creatures that were nestled in his lap, staring up at him with their big, big eyes. His finger twitched.

Alec hid a smile at the man's torn eyes as he stared down at the two creatures. It was clear that he wanted to pet and touch – he was probably screaming inwardly about how cute they were, but he didn't since he did not want to break the image that he maintained in front of Alec.

It was just hilarious how he was practically crumbling in front of their cuteness – like a lot of others did but didn't want to admit.

Dorian cleared his throat, but his hand sneakily inched towards the two's soft fur, patting them lightly as if wary of scaring them away.

Bunbun's back leg thumped against the sect master's knee as the man moved to scratch him under the chin, purring happily. Fenrir used both paws to lightly trap the man's fingers between his paws.

Alec swallowed the laughter that threatened to come out. It never got old how so many 'stern' or 'cold and indifferent' people seemed to melt under the both creature's combined gazes.

"Alecris Neil, I will be entrusting the fate of the Sins into your hands. Do not fail me. Do not fail them," Dorian said seriously, but his serious appearance was completely ruined by the sight of his hands busily moving and patting and doting on Fenrir and Bunbun.

Still, Alec didn't allow the amusement to show on his face as he bowed low, graciously accepting the order.

He straightened up and put a serious look onto his face, his smile diminishing to just the barest hint. "I will not fail," he said with complete assurance.

"Good."

"What will the group be called?"

Dorian reluctantly stopped his hands from patting both creatures to push a sheet of paper across to the boy.

The word 'Inspectre' was written on the top. Alec's lip twitched. He wondered if it was because the group was designed to keep an eye on the sect disciples, as well as take missions outside the sect that required discretion.

Well, he supposed that it was fine. He would just refer to them as Spectres in the future.

"I will refer to them as Spectres off paper."

Dorian didn't even blink.

"All the Sins are to be indoctrinated into the Spectres group. Note that this is highly secret and that their identity should not be revealed to anyone who is not in the group itself. Of course, that includes yourself. You are allowed to recruit from outside the Sins as well, should it come to that." Dorian paused, thinking about what else he still had to tell him.

Alec acknowledged this. It was something that Dorian had spoken of extensively during their meetings. The man did not hide anything from him regarding the activities that the said group would be partaking in.

"A base of sorts has been delegated to the Spectres. I will hand over the authority to you. Only those with permission are able to enter."

Dorian placed his hand over Alec's hand, where a channel of magic touched upon Alec's before a weight settled onto it. It was a different feeling from his bonds with his Awakened, but he could feel where the space was held.

Dorian reluctantly patted Bunbun and Fenrir one last time before he nodded at Alec. "I have already directed the Sins to enter the Spectre's base."

Bunbun and Fenrir left Dorian's lap and bounded over to climb up Alec's clothes, riding on his shoulders.

Alec stood up. "If that is all?"

Dorian nodded. "Dismissed."

Alec left the room, heading in the direction where he could sense the Spectre's base tugging him, feeling Dorian's reluctant eyes staring a hole into his back as he left with Bunbun and Fenrir, feeling slightly speechless at the sect master's actions.

Bunbun turned behind to wave lightly at Dorian, causing the sect master's mood to lighten happily.

Alec's lips twitched.
