Chapter 18: Catching up

(Previously on the last chapter)

"I love you!" Luna declared

Magnus looked at her while uttering one word.

"Huh?"

(Present)

Magnus just stared at her, the kiss, the love he felt, and her declaration... It all........

Before anything could happen......

"Ehem!"

A fake cough could be heard behind them.

"I think that is enough, for now since the guards, doctors, and Nurses will soon arrive..." She said with a faint blush. "Or would you 2 want to spread the news~~?" She said while looking back at them with a teasing smirk.

They then looked at each other in very close proximity, so they immediately separated with blushes and stood up. Although Magnus was pale instead, which he quickly rectified before the princesses noticed.

Celestia giggled and then looked back up at Magnus. "It is good to see you up, Magnus... We thought you may not wake up at all..."

Magnus tilted his head in confusion. "Why? were my injuries that serious?" He asked.

Luna then answered for her sister, "No, the injuries could be healed and blood loss was easily dealt with... The real problem was the shock your brain went through which caused you to go brain dead... When I heard that... I was so..."

Luna seemed to cry again and Magnus although still shaken, still didn't like her crying, so he hugged her. "It's ok... I'm fine now..." He said while patting her back.

While hugging/patting, he spoke to clear the misunderstanding, "And the Brain death part? I can't go brain dead."

Luna was surprised that she leaned back and looked at him while still in a hug. "What do you mean you can't go brain dead? You clearly were-" But was cut off by Magnus.

"It only looked like I was brain dead... That was just Psi exhaustion, a symptom that happens when you use all your Psi up, and to others, it may seem like brain death but it's just my brain going through an emergency shutdown in order to take a rest, which greatly resembles brain death." He explained to them.

"But then why did it take so long for you to heal?" She asked.

Magnus then scrunches his brows. "That I don't know... The only time that happened was when a Psi user expands there Psi capacity......!" His eyes turned wide and immediately check his capacity.

Magnus seemed to be frozen in place, which greatly worried the diarchy until he started laughing.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

He kept on laughing which in turn made the sisters confused until suddenly he brought both of them into a hug and exclaimed, "Luna! Celestia! Your Mother is amazing!"

Luna and Celestia snapped their heads towards him with great confusion and say one word.

"Huh?"

(Time skip)

(Canterlot Castle Dining Hall)

"So you are telling me, you met our mother in limbo, who has been trapped in there by another god Karthenon, and received gifts, one which lets you limitlessly grow this, Psi capacity and the other, which lets you use Magic?" She said all at once without taking a breather, which was impressive.

"Yup!" Magnus agreed while gorging into his food like there's no tomorrow.

Celestia and Luna both pinched the bridge of their noses with tear marks on their face, they have raged and cried while hearing about their not-so-dead mother and how she was sorry about leaving them due to her circumstances. Magnus started eating after they finished crying and brightened up while explaining the enemies that are to come and ravage the lands.

Luna, seated right next to him with a bit puffy eyes due to crying spoke, "This... is a lot to take in Magnus and the fact that the S-class gate wasn't the highest threat... that disturbs me the most..."

Magnus nodded and swallowed his food. "And that's why I ask of you to teach me magic, I must get stronger than now in order to fight Karthenon." He said seriously, looking like his old self.

Magnus used Enhanced Metabolism, which sped up his Metabolism by a few dozen times with Psi enhancing and now he's back to himself before he fell into a coma.

"But what about your Psi Capacity? Shouldn't you train on that too?" Luna asked.

Magnus smirked. "I already am training it." He said smugly.

Luna looked at him in confusion. "What do you mean you are already training?" She asked.

Magnus then asked Luna, "You remember Parallel Mind?" Luna nodded. "I'm currently using my other mind to do Psi meditation." He said with his smirk turning into a grin.

Luna's eyes widened. "That's cheating..." She mumbled.

"I agree..." Celestia said with equally wide eyes.

Magnus chuckled. "Yeah, this training method was why I was one of the strongest Psi users in my world." He said with pride in his voice.

The rulers just shook their heads.

Celestia then seemed to remember something. "Oh yes, I forgot!" She looked towards Magnus. "I called the Elements here, they will be here in a few moments!" She said while clapping her hands.

Magnus then tilted his head in confusion. "Called?... You haven't told them I was awake haven't you?" He said while sending Celestia a mild glare.

Celestia and Luna giggled. "It is a surprise," Celestia said.

"And it will be a good one at that..." Luna added with a smile.

Magnus sighed. "That's mean of you guys, you do know they have been very worried about me for the whole time I was in a coma you know?" He said while the edge of his lips twitched upwards.

The sisters finished giggling. "Anyways, they would be here soon..." Said, Celestia.

"What do you mean soon?" He asked while tilting his head.

"I've sent the scroll via magic right after I have arrived at your room this morning." She said.

Luna then rubbed her chins with her fingers. "Then that would mean they would be here right about no-"

She was cut off by the sound of a door opening, courtesy of Twilight.

"Princess Celestia! Princess Luna! We came as soon as we can-!?" She froze at the end of the sentence, eyes glued on Magnus.

The rest of the Mane 6 followed suit.

"Darling why did you suddenly sto-!" Rarity stopped mid-sentence and put her hands over her mouth.

"R-Rarity? Are you oka-...?" Fluttershy's eyes widened with tears.

"My Party senses are tingling?" Pinkamena stopped with wide eyes while her mane started to puff back up

"Now why'd ya all stopping for?!" Applejack froze in place with wide eyes and hands-on her waists.

"Okay not funny! What's happening? What are you-........." Rainbow stopped, her eyes started to tear up as she gazed at the figure, her HERO.

Magnus looked at all of them with a wide smile. "Hey, Twilly, Rares, Flutters, Pinks, AJ, and Dash......" He paused a bit and continued.

"I'M BACK..."
