As the sky began to brighten up, there was no more use for lamps. The dark lord and his armies began to approach his base in the city of Babb. They were returning from the battlefront after a very long fight which they were unable to prevail because the soldiers they fought against were far beyond their number and expectation. There was no way for them to break the line and enter Meo, therefore it was proved to the dark lord that the small city really had men of valor.After the long fight in the field without seeing the soldiers of Raia, dark lord Kees also realized that there was a very small probability for Ned and the soldiers he was with to conquer the city. But since he had not returned yet, Kees still had to keep hope alive until Ned returned from fighting.Getting to his base and seeing the alertness of his soldiers who he had asked to secure the base, he could tell that there was something going wrong. As soon as he was welcomed by one of the dark magicians, he did not return
Now the dark lord and all that had followed him to walk through the portal began to appear one by one at the front of the cave. Many of them were full of surprises since that was their first time coming there. In fact, ninety-nine percent of them had not been there before, so they looked around, trying to take a good picture of that place.While some of them were still appearing and surveying the place, lord Kees, who was the first to appear there, took a very quick gaze at the place and said, "Over there!!!" As he pointed over to the direction which Elek, Tyra and Demi had taken after coming out of the cave.Then Verona asked him, "What happened?!""They've taken Demi out. But I am sure they are not far." Kees answered her as he led the way and the others followed him."What about the magicians we left to secure this place?" Godric asked because he could not understand how they managed to get away with Demi without encountering the magicians left to watch over the place. He also knew
Since their pursuers were now with them, Demi did not bother to explain anything to Elek and Tyra. As the dark magicians and soldiers attacked them, Demi only said. "Now!!!" And instantly, the white magicians vanished with Elek and Tyra against their will. Therefore the plan of Kees to deceive them was no longer a success."We should go after them." One of the dark magicians suggested.But lord Kees refused her suggestion. "No! They are gone so let them be. Going after them is going into their domain while they are fully alert." And the dark magicians and soldiers were not happy with the response of their leader. "They might have escaped us today, but we will surely get them." Kees assured his followers and then they returned from the forest to re-enforced.Now the white magicians who had fled from the face of contest with Elek and Tyra against their will, appeared in the city of Morga, which was the only city whose armies did not engage in the fight that just ended. They appeared at
Seeing the attention which her words drew, the witch was startled and found it difficult to air her suggestion out.After waiting for some time without hearing anything from her, Craig asked because he really needed every suggestion which would prove his innocence. "What is your idea? We are all waiting to hear them. In short, I earnestly need them."Then the witch had to break her silence, "I think it is best if we show them what happened that day. They should be shown how Greg was killed by Verona.""Wait… are you also saying that Craig is innocent?" Tyra asked the witch, and this was because she was the only one who they seemed to like amongst all the white magicians but for the fact that she was also with Craig, they had not agreed to stay with her."Yes that is what I am saying." The witch answered."How do you intend to show us the cause of his death?" Elek asked the witch again as he was beginning to gain interest in the point which she made.Then Demi answered on her behalf, r
Back in the city of Babb, Verona badges into the courts of the dark lord and says to him after a brief bow. "My lord, there is a problem. Or do I say, we have a problem.""What is it?" Lord Kees asked her in response while he was sitting on his established throne.And she replied, "The last sorcerers had finally reconciled with the other white magicians." "And how is that supposed to be a problem?" Lord Kees asked as if he did not know the consequences of what she had said. Whereas, he was a little bit troubled within him, and the situation because he too has seen and felt it even before Verona came to break the news to him.Then his mistress was so confused as to why he acted that way, she was expecting him to get really troubled because of that news. "My lord, why do you act as though you are troubled. Have you forgotten, or did it not occur to your knowledge that they would start learning more about magic." She paused for a while, took a deep breath, and as Kees was about to say s
After so much thought on what the interpretation of the magicians' look was, Oved was still unable to get a clear thought nor even decide on what to do. So he had to ride over to the emperor's place since it was within his city, Morga.When he got to the castle of Lucio, and had been escorted by a soldier to meet Lucio. He saluted, "Greetings to the emperor of Gouna.""Good day, dear Oved, governor of Morga." Lucio returned the greetings. And as he took notice of the restlessness of Oved, he asked. "You seem restless, so tell me, what is the matter?"And Oved, not knowing how to answer the question, hesitated because he still was not sure if the magicians would like him to spread the news about the last sorcerers. But then, he had to fulfill his purpose for coming over to Lucio's place, so he began. "I am confused…""Why?! What is the reason for your confusion?" Lucio snapped immediately."The magicians have just introduced two young sorcerers to me, and according to them, they say th
Within the next couple of days, the messengers of emperor Lucio had successfully passed Lucio's message across to governor Efraim of Meo, governor Isador of Raia, governor Aatto of Rolfe, and governor Dewitt of Benn. Governor Claus was already in the city of Morga at the emperor's place because his city had been conquered, so he got the news on the exact same day Oved and Lucio made the decision to pass the news to the other governor. The only governor who did not get to hear about the emergency meeting was governor Keld of Narain because he was imprisoned during the conquest of his city.When the six governors who were free had gathered at the castle of Lucio in respect to the call, Oved then told the purpose of that gathering to the rest of them. Dewitt, Isador and Aatto who had not heard about the last sorcerers before were so surprised to hear such, that they found it very difficult to believe.Claus and Efraim who had heard of Elek and Tyra also had some disbelief in what Oved sa
While they quivered with fear, the wizard who had appeared in their midst just stood still moving his eyes as watched their countenance without uttering a word.After some minutes of him watching the leaders, he then broke the silence in the hall. "Well done on your decision. Together you all have reasoned and come to a final decision. On behalf of myself and my brethren, I must congratulate you on a decision well made. You have thought like us in our absence. And that shows that you will definitely do well in the leadership of this empire even in our absence. Keep up the good work."Then the emperor and governors were greatly relieved as most of them exhaled heavily.Oved, who could not keep his thoughts within him had to reveal to the wizard. "You really scared us. To be honest, the moment you appeared I thought you had come to rebuke us and the decision we made. I also know that all my colleagues felt the same way.""Of course I knew that was what you all felt the moment you saw me
