Thomas let out a sigh of relief when the house stopped shaking and immediately began to crawl out of his corner slowly. When Sojo entered the room he jumped a little bit and frowned a bit when he asked about him being huddled in the corner in the first place. He was about to make a comment about it but then something else had caught his attention. Shaking the fear that had him nearly paralyzed earlier away, he glanced over to the skeleton warrior that had been summoned. So he was being given a babysitter? Thomas was going to have to deal with that later if it was possible; he had a feeling that it was going to take him awhile before his magic was powerful enough to deal with it. He still had to find some way to get his amulet recharged, and he had to rest up some more and regain his strength before he would be able to do just that.<br/><br/>â€œNeed help? I donâ€™t need your help, if I wanted it I would ask, Iâ€™ll be perfectly fine; itâ€™s like riding a bike, you never forget, you know.â€ There was a smirk on his face now, though his mask hiding his little buried alive fear had a few cracks in it. It was another reminder of how rusty he was when it came to hiding himself, â€œThough I will tell you that I wonâ€™t be dealing with the magic you were using. That was one hell of a ride, definitely not my idea of funâ€¦ Usually the earthquakes are rougher and last a little longer.â€ The fact that he allowed such a small thing like fear shake him up like that showed him at he still had a long way to go before he was himself again. It frustrated him a little.<br/><br/>He was allowed to have the book as long as he does not cause trouble, huh? Fortunately for Sojo he was still not feeling like himself enough to use magic for mischief. Relearning magic might be coming a lot easier but controlling it would be a different story. If he went too quickly he knew the spells would spiral out of control and he didnâ€™t want that. Magic was useless if you couldnâ€™t control it, Thomas certainly was not stupid, when he was alive he was known for his control over stronger spells.<br/><br/>Thomas brushed himself off and winced slightly when he moved his hand away from the back of his thigh. â€œDestroying the house isnâ€™t quite on my agenda, I wouldnâ€™t have a place to stay otherwise plus I appreciate yourâ€¦ hospitality in spite of your little â€˜petsâ€™ giving me a warm and inviting welcome into your humble establishment.â€ He continued, looking around the room to see if those books were still lurking in the shadows. They were there, but where were theyâ€¦ His pants, more specifically the area around his ass, were soaked with blood. Fucking bookâ€¦ that was another reason he needed to get his magic back. Once he was able to he was going to find that impish book and tear its pages out with his bare hands and then burn them all in a neat little fire. Once that was finished he would then he would destroy that skeleton, too, and get himself out of here.<br/><br/>â€œNow if youâ€™ll excuse me I would like to work on restoring my magical abilities in peace.â€ He added as he moved stuff out of the way and cleared a space in the room that would allow him to practice his magic easier. Turning his attention away from Sojo he looked around at the books some more, trying to find a book different from the one he had earlier. The book he found was a step above the book that contained the water spell. He was going to have to move on to stronger magic if he was going to be staying in a place like this but he would also be careful not to overdo it or rush anything. Dealing with the skeleton would be too much for his still recovering body to handle, that was still out of the question. Unfortunately until he found a solution he was stuck dealing with a lot of things.<br/><br/>He decided that he should take a walk around town later on. The low growl in his stomach showed him he was getting hungry again, too, but he just ignored it for now.
