The person was on guard, to avoid any crises considering priest Iris's personality is Jeremy.

Iris is heading straight into the hall's direction. Jeremy scoots and reaches Joseph's destination and explains to him that priest Iris is around

They need to escape now, otherwise there will be no more further opportunities

Even so, Joseph don't run away instead he is deep in thought that 'if this will continue Ryan will going to confined in his room, for God knows how many more days after this incident came to light.

Analysing Jeremy's worries Joseph replied "Ryan was still inside this secret passage if we both escaped Ryan would be stuck in there".

Iris who already took a glimpse of Jeremy now on the way to reach the corridor.

In no time Iris found both of them and is just a step apart from them. He sees that Jeremy and Joseph are whispering something to each other, Iris asks from Joseph ."What are you both doing here?"Joseph gulped his saliva and said

"Nothing we are just passing by"

Iris doesn't believe them, so he straightforwardly said. "You were just passed by, in a place where children are not allowed. This is a middle hall for prayer in which only adults can come 'in' or 'out' then how come you both intrude in without getting caught by any priest?"

Joseph said inside his mind .....' Oh! That's because Ryan's capabilities are amazing. They easily avoid all of them '

then Joseph cut the conversation by saying that "We both are here, on Maratha's command. She instructed us to visit her with the prayer necessary equipment such as fragrant candles, paper napkins, crystal balls, etc.

Iris's eyebrows twitch a little, narrowing his eyebrows, he asks "By chance, any of you know where Ryan Is? Father Patricia needs him."

They denied it and headed straight to visit Martha.

Iris flips his robe aside. He saw a dull curtain at the corner of the prayer room, which is slightly revealing a small door of an inconspicuous closet. .He lightly yanked the curtain and afterwards the door opened with a creek .He began to trace back the same alleyways as Ryan within a good pace without hesitation he took his steps in the direction ahead of him.

"Phew. . . . It was nothing but some old sculptures which were placed here " Ryan panicked when he saw dozens of eyes staring at him but they were just some old scriptures.

Ryan already arrived inside an enormous-sized room.

"Woah! God, How enormous this closet can be?" Ryan said. A while ago when his lantern slipped down from his hand and got broken expectedly.

make him cast a 'luminous spell' to see through things around .This is a kind of spell that can put anything to mimic 'light energy' but only for a specific time duration.

The procedure is simple: you just need to take anything as long as it fits into your fist and then mumble the entire spell 3 times with no gap.

It can be multiple times as much as the caster wishes, but the object emits light for a particular amount of period.

These are those awesome spells that he learned from Iannae. Suddenly he heard some footsteps following him from behind. There is no one in this room other than him. Ryan notices a rotten closet that is nearby. It is situated on the wall. He has no time to think while cursing the curator. He rushes inside the closet before Iris' arrival. Ryan closed the door behind him and peeked through the small hole inside it.

From the peek hole he sees Iris who is busy wandering around the whole room. Iris' pace is steady like he knows what he wants to dig, just a single clue from the other side and he will get it.

Even this rotten closet cannot be hidden from his sharp eagle eyes. He took a whole big step closer to the closet. Ryan could not help but just move backward in panic. There is no more space left for him to step backward, his steps are ceased now. Ryan murmurs "This Closet is inside the outer closet ,if there will be another closet within this closet then it's a miracle."

He realises something when his back clashes one more time against the wall of the closet.

Iris grabs the knob and with a click. He opens it up. There is no one inside the closet. There is nothing, not even a rat considering its condition. strangely when he is just about to close the door his gaze falls on a stone which is still shimmering. He did not figure out how this piece of jem was here.

He mumbles "what is this, A Lightstone or something'' but soon enough the stone loses its whole shine and turns black.

......

......

Ryan teleported into a wardrobe. He said sulkily " again into a closet no wait a minute. It's different from any other wardrobe"

It was Iannae's wardrobe where he teleported to. So, It's considerable that the wardrobe is full of her robes, clothes, etc. That's the reason why all over there is only Iannae's scent.

Iannae is peacefully sleeping inside her room but got immediately wakes up due to the sudden disturbance. There is no one inside the room its make her believe that she must be overthinking but then a sneezing voice broke out from the inside of her wardrobe .After which she check if there is someone who was hiding in there.

A boy's presence that is emitting golden radiant aura. His cute face said a 'Ah' in amazement, there is slightly a sad atmosphere around him.

"Ryan," Iannae asks.

As soon as he took a single glimpse of Iannae. he forgets everything .She has perfectly red lips, and a small face that suits with her pale skin tone.

Like Wisely those long hair of her's that giveaway the vibes of a silent night. It breaks his heart every single time when he sees that silver piece of fabric that always covers her eyes. The truth is Iannae is blind! . Although she can sense the surroundings, it's impossible for her to see around

unless she doesn't use her foresight.

withstanding her like this, a unique thought of desire eager into Ryan's heart and he mumbles 'Only if, there is a way through which l can take every single sorrow from your life, then in exchange, I will give you my eyes'.

"huh!!?" Iannae asks , "what are you talking about?"

"Ahm...." hesitating Ryan replies " It's nothing"

His stupid desire is also an anticipation that always binds him to her.

Ryan knows if he said this now, Iannae will be very angry and scold him for being an idiot but he believes in a corner of his heart, that one day she will understand him.

Ryan is just a 14 years old. He accepted his age and also thought that he is quite mature for what he thought. He just does not want to lose his little hope which seems like a salvation to him.

Ryan does not know 'what are these feelings?'He just accepted them as an act of sorrow to feel bad for his necrosis master. He promised himself internally that he will never reveal this feeling to Iannae.

He is going to always keep them as his secret from her because he doesn't want to let her feel left out due to her inability.

"What are you doing down there Ryan?" Iannae asked " And why are your eyes all reddened at the corner" before extending her hands she ask again "Is there someone who is troubling my disciple? without my knowledge".

In response, Ryan lowers his body, and Iannae pats his head. Ryan starts blushing. Iannae thought that he was just a cute little boy. It's quite cold out there and he was sitting on the floor of her wardrobe. His hands and legs become numb which leads him to quiver a little. She already guessed that he had been here for quite a while. She presses Ryan's cheeks with both hands. It makes his cheeks now become more red , not because of Iannae but this time due to the thermal magic that she uses with the help of her ability that warms up Ryan's body in seconds. They both sit on Iannae's bed after a while. Iannae is covering Ryan in a blanket due to the weather then suddenly two "Bang" sound were heard back at the door of her room.

Iannae and Ryan's turns their head toward the source and the door opens.

To be continued.
