I was making a martial fighting stance. Milim grabbed a stick and began slapping my limbs into the right position… Shifu style.
"It doesn't hurt but don't you think the slapping is unnecessary?"
Milim seemed to ignore my query, "you have a very impressive and defined stance. Mmm, this makes things harder for me."
"Why is that?"
"When someone incorporates a fighting style into their muscle memory, it becomes harder to change."
"Why don't I just use my spiritual body to instantly learn the moves and stances?" I proposed to Milim who just stared at me.
"I… didn't think about that." Milim seemed to have a brain malfunction.
"Um… can I stop doing this stance?" I asked stiffly.
"No." She stepped Infront of me, "What I want you to do is use energy in your feet to launch yourself towards me, and while heading towards me, divert that energy to your fist."
I didn't even hesitate, I launched myself forward and did exactly what she said I must do, "WAIT THAT'S TOO MUCH!" Milim's voice came too late as a white light smashed into her face.
Her body was blasted across the city, the force sending a deafening boom across the nation. Her body crashed against a mountain so hard that the mountain melted into magma.
I began seething in simulated pain, imagining what that could have felt like, "That's gotta hurt really bad."
Suddenly from the remains of the mountain, a pink meteor shot out flying straight to me. The energy scared me to an unfathomable degree, 'This must've been how the dinosaurs felt?'
The meteor stopped it's flight right Infront of me and the energy that it was bathed in dissipated. What was revealed was a much more mature Milim adorning an armoured dress, giant bat wings and a singular horn coming out of her head, in her she was wielding a one-handed great sword.
'So this is her true form, how intersting and that must be Asura.' I thought as I looked at the weapon Milim was holding.
"Why did you use so much power?" Milim's mature voice came slowly into my ears, her tone and facial expression didn't signify anger but more just annoyance. A stark contrast from her usual personality, from what I know her personality shouldn't change with her transformation.
"Well you didn't specify how much power to use, and I took advantage of that."
A vein visibly popped on Milim's forehead and she took a deep sigh, "That…
…Was amazing. You were incredible, you barely even started and you've already shown great strides in the technique, not to mention, that power was incredible, I actually felt a lot of pain there." Milim beamed out in excitement at my performance.
'Now that's the Milim I know, childish to a fault.'
Milim's face suddenly puffed up, "You were just thinking of something mean weren't you?"
'What the hell.' I cursed at Milim's intuition.
"You better make me something nice when we go back." Milim demanded stubbornly.

Guy was still dealing with the aftermath of Simon's outburst. He had currently dealt with the diplomatic issues but now he had to deal with the physical damage, the easy part… or that's what he thought.
The cardinal world was suffering an immense amount of chaotic energy flooding in.
Guy's analyses found the cause. The barrier separating the cardinal world, the imaginary space and several hundred other worlds had been punctured.
The barrier between other worlds were easy to fix, it was the barrier between the central world and imaginary space that would be a problem.
The chaotic energy seeping out of the pores of the world would make it increasingly difficult to patch up. Even if he did patch it up completely, the energy that would flood in would increase the disaster and destruction that would plague the world. Natural disasters would be occuring far more often from the sudden influx of everything all at once.
"Simon, just what the hell have you left for me?" Guy had finally came to realize the extreme magnitude of his creation, "I have to get Velzard's help with this, we need to work overtime."
————————————————
"Will you please be my chef?" Milim was begging Simon for his servitude to her.
"No, find someone else to do that. I have my own life and frankly I'm not a dragon faithful. Although there is one dragon in particular that I'm faithful towards." I whispered that last part to myself, which Milim probably heard.
Milim had already transformed into her childlike body, her body was oozing childlike glee… until it stopped. She looked off into the distance with wariness, her face showing surprise.
"Is there something wrong Milim?" I asked until I sensed it too, this power fluctuating, it was Guy and it was big.
Both me and Milim looked at each other and then came to the same consensus. We both shot out of the city and arrived at the edge of the world. And there we found Guy Infront of what can be considered a spatial anomaly, a hole between and connecting two dimensions.
Guy began repairing it until he felt a presence behind him, he turned around to find his colleague and student, looking at him with curiosity, "Hi Guy, what are you doing?" Milim addressed her colleague and the gigantic hole in the world with extreme passivity.
"Someone caused me a massive headache and now I have too fix it."
"Wow sound like a jackass." My response caused Guy to deadpan towards me… and that's when I realized my mistake, "I did this, didn't I?"
Guy just nodded his head, "Your clash with me drilled a couple holes into the cardinal world."
"So I drilled into the heavens. Seems I'm living up to my namesake."
"This isn't a joke Simon!" Guy snapped, his patience had run dry.
I was startled by his sudden anger, this was really the first time had shown such animosity. Usually when he screwed up he would get a slap on the wrist or some veiled sigh but it seems that I finally did something that pushed Guy to his limit, "Um… sorry."
"No need, but this isn't a joking matter Simon."
"It can't be that bad right?" Milim tried to lighten up the tense atmosphere.
"Milim, what Simon did could have caused extinction and ended the world."
Both me and Milim looked shocked at his news, " Yeah, I want to feel bad about that but all I can feel is pride."
" Fair enough." Guy was upset but understood his situation.
" Anyway, you need any help?"
