Am I Able To Feel? [An Undertale OC Story]

Chapter 22: Bete Noire

Sans: Damn, that's some respectable power

Gaster: If a member was still alive and left the Council, they could choose who to succeed in their former position, an example being Rin Winterway.

Asgore: She took her sister's place, Ellie Winterway, after she stepped down. If a member passed away or was removed forcibly, then people could audition in a sense or be recommended by nobles or royal families

Gaster: After the humans defeated the monsters, the Wizard Council were the ones to seal us underground. The members at the time were, Roy and Shane Goldburn, Rin Winterway, Kody Fallenfire, Mila Rutrow.....and Copper and Agate Lightvale.

Sans: Were you close with these guys?

Asgore: I'd say we were, which is why it hurt when they decided to attack us

Gaster: We didn't know what happened on the surface while we were sealed. But I managed to find some old books that date back then, I found out that the first five that I mentioned had gone missing. Leaving the Lightvales to rule the entirety of the Human Kingdom, and the council disbanding.

Sans: Anything special about these two?

Asgore: Agate Lightvale was the twin sister of Copper Lightvale and a member of the Wizard Council entitled the Wizard of Bravery. She probably was one of the best around, and it seems that her influence is still affecting us today

Sans: This Agate.....what's up with her? And what do you mean influence?

Asgore: I keep mentioning Agate because this Betty girl, has traces of Agate and her little sister Amber

Sans: What? Are you saying that she reincarnated or something?

Asgore: No.....she used the Bete Noire Spell

Gaster: It can't be true.....

Sans: The what?

Asgore: The Bete Noire Spell is a forbidden and dangerous spell that revolves around the use of Runic Magic to construct a Bete Noire, an entity of pure destruction.

Sans: Are you saying that this Betty is one?

Asgore: Absolutely.

Sans: Tell me the story about the Bete Noire

Gaster: A wizard long ago inverted their trait and casted the spell, making the first ever Bete Noire. The Bete Noire was later killed, and the spell became one of the most strictly forbidden inverted spells known to date.

Sans: I can see why, but did you say....that they inverted their trait?

Asgore: To create a Bête Noire, one must invert their trait and have a corpse as the vessel. The soul of the caster will turn pink with pink magic in their hands, mixing the spell’s magic with the inverted trait.

Gaster: The soul will then convert the chosen vessel into magic and absorb it, turning into the body. The Bete Noire will retain the consciousness of the original caster and retain the abilities of their trait.

Sans: So is Betty another person?

Asgore: She is meant to be Agate Lightvale, but I sense more of her sister, Amber inside....it's like a fusion between the two sisters, making this confusing for even myself.

Sans: Yeah, this is all crazy. I've got to let Frisk and Chara know about this, because they're going to be involved with all of this

Gaster: We need to be on the lookout as well, I heard she just disappeared like that, so she could be anywhere

Sans: Don't worry, my experiences of being a sentry have all come down to this

Gaster: Yes, like that has done you any good
