"Intend to?"

He sighed figuring that this would happen since he has always been questioned about if the was actually Maxwell or not though. It was a normal thing for him unless he was in Nia Khera since everyone there was a worshipper of Maxwell. He crosses his arms over his chest thinking for a few minutes not really knowing on if it was a good idea for him to before he listened to what Slyph had to say. 

Jude nodded though as it was best to summon the four to give Yuri the proof that he needed about who he really was. He moved back a few feet to give himself room before he started to move his hands forming a circle then moved his hands across the middle and up causing the smaller circles to light up with the color of the elements. 

He couldn’t believe it. Those were definitely the images he saw in the books. The Four were in front of him, and not only that, but to see all of them here and Maxwell himself...Yuri thought he was dreaming.

“Woah...”

It was difficult to gather his thoughts.

“...that’s enough proof.”

What were they talking about again before this...?

Oh, right.

He was jostled awake again when he was placed on a bed. “Nnngh… Yuri?” He looked around, not recognising his surroundings. That should probably worry him, he thought, but he couldn’t muster up the energy.

“I’m...”

Yuri started, but stopped, grunting. What was he doing? Well, he knew what he was doing, but why was he doing this? As soon as he started thinking about it, it was as if his thoughts came to a stop; as if not wanting to think too deeply into it. For a moment, Yuri washed the wound in silence, contemplative, before he tried to speak again.

“I’m...”

...saving you.

“...going to sew up this wound for you. So that your blood stays inside your body. Doesn’t that sound like a good time?”

“Yes that Sylph, there is only one that I am referring to.” 

Jude shifted on his feet placing his arms behind his back for a moment being that it was a habit of his he picked up long ago. He kept his gaze in Yuri’s direction knowing that what he would tell him probably was going to be a big surprise 

The Lord of Spirits.

This was Maxwell?

“...”

At first, Yuri didn’t know what to say. He simply stared, speechless and dumbfounded. He had only been here for some time, but even he knew who Maxwell was. Even if he hadn’t read about them in a history book, Yuri was sure that he would recognize the name, with how much it came up in conversations now and then.

But Yuri couldn’t just believe it. It was - sounded - too good to be true. Like somebody pulling a fast one on him.

“...no way. Maxwell? Where’s your proof?” Yuri asked, shocked face replaced with one of skepticism.

That didn’t stop his body from sliding several feet, showing trails in the dirt below him. That had been…exhilarating. Such a small bit of force, and he’d been pushed back! That arte was stronger than he’d thought. Perhaps the human was too. Perhaps.

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me..."

His whole body still ached from the blast, but he forced himself to move. He tried to sprint out of the dome, but the earlier effects of the spell begun to affect him, making his whole body heavy.

"God...damn it...!"

The increase in gravity brought Yuri down to his knees. He crawled for a little bit before becoming completely immobilized. With each passing moment, he could feel his body crushing underneath the force of the gravity. He had to do something, or else he was going to die. Time was running out. Screaming, he forced his hands to grab his sword. With all his might, he swung another Azure Edge from his sword in the opposite direction, blastia glowing brightly. The force was larger than his previous ones, and the knockback from it was enough to propel him back...

...but not enough.

He tried to get up, but found that his ankle and foot were still caught within the confines of the dome, and the gravity was crushing it with each passing second.

"Ahh...AAHHHH!!"

He paused.

“Wait...Sylph? As in...the Sylph?”

Did he hear that right? Sylph? Yuri almost stumbled back. That was one of the names that was tossed around in this world, and he had also read a brief history of Rieze Maxia. He had stumbled upon that name before in his research.

“That’s a good point, Yuri. Stealing from nobles is more fun… more of a challenge. A tiny challenge.” Noble houses were easy too, of course. Just not quite as easy as those of poor people. Maybe he should steal something from the palace. Although that hadn’t been hard to get into, either…

Yuri scanned the town. It was small, but looked relatively new. Passing by some people and accumulating stares, Yuri made his way to the inn, figuring that there’d be some people that knew a doctor or two. And if they didn’t, the inn would have (hopefully) the items needed for Yuri to patch up Zagi himself. He was no doctor, but he learned some basic medical lessons during his time in the knights.

His eyes flickered slightly after the blanket was placed over him since he did sense that someone was approaching him. He opened his eyes in a drowsy manner as he glanced around for a second since he was still waking up. Jude let out a tiny sleepy breath before his amber eyes settled on Yuri “Hmm…. I guess that I slept too long.” 

It was getting hard to see their surroundings the longer they stayed out here. Up above, the stars began to twinkle. It was a sight that Yuri wasn’t used to, having grown up inside of a barrier whose workings mostly blocked parts of the sky. So it was a spectacle to behold.
