Puzzled, trying to figure out what makes sense and what not for the past ten minutes, Woldemir found it appropriate to ask now. "I have a question. How... just how did you end up getting lost in the woods and miss two hundred years of war?"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ftm0y3BTw
The color on Mogranius' face turned rather pale as Woldemir seeked a deeper explanation of this predicament. But yet he found the nerve to answer. "I was with Akareas, the previous Electus. We were researching more about the most unknown power to any Wizard or Witch, the mysterious powers of Teleportation."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dpRQScIu2
These powers ring a bell, but just to be sure Woldemir asked. "Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I've been told, teleportation is where you disappear into thin air and appear somewhere else."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0pY4zfnCO
Nodding in agreement as he thought through some other points, Mogranius clumsily replied. "Yes yes, you've heard."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4qyHHMUjF
"How does it equal to you skipping two hundred years?" Scratching his head, Woldemir couldn't comprehend this theory.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2ftWL2koo
What Mogranius is basically referring to is teleportation and above that, he is talking about Time Travel as well. Teleportation is a blur to most, explained as a fairy tale but considered as a magical power that every Electus should have. While Time Travel isn't even one of the 8 powers. The theory keeps getting crazier by the second.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppqZlkZ9Q2
Thankfully Mogranius is willing to shed more light through this mountain of confusing darkness. "See, before I found myself in these woods, we were tipped off by an adventurer that a book about teleportation is deep down an underground dungeon."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY71Nn0jt3c
Instantly seeing this as a bad start, Woldemir couldn't help asking. "And you believed him? Adventurers are full of malarkey, they robbed so many rich men for elixirs that apparently grant immortality."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N5VQuii2M
Shouting his sentences, his neck hair up thanks to recalling the scene, Mogranius butchered. "Oh an Adventurer tricking us became the least of our concern, although he didn't lie about the book!"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6vwj5le0I
"So I'm assuming something went wrong?" Asked Woldemir, he figured out a bit where this is going.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkj6eW9NkR3
"It did!" He yelled again and continued. "Right after we found the book, managing to read a few pages of it too. But the dungeon was abandoned a couple of centuries ago, it didn't take long for a disaster to follow."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcf9Tr8RuX
His attention given entirely towards the storyteller, Woldemir asked with his eyes wide open. "What happened?"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4x7jW3Whw
"Out of nowhere, part of the dungeon collapsed." Mogranius shouted once more and raised his arms towards the sky to add a little drama.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQkTF2Tv6x
"So that's how you got here? Did the dungeon kill you or...?" Asked Woldemir while still having it hard to put two and two together.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqsLYvxQRm
Time Travel doesn't link here and he is getting convinced that Mogranius is a ghost, well Chapels would describe anything unusual as demonic or paranormal so why not aye?
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfQjm8307V
A bit pissed, Mogranius added. "You would have known if you stopped interrupting my story!"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx0AO6B1cb
"But I didn't..." Woldemir tried to speak but got interrupted, ironic ha?
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKBZDLhDNq
Becoming a bit of a drama queen, Mogranius explained. "I was exactly at the area where the dungeon collapsed. A second before large boulders and dirt were about to crush the soul out of me, Akareas casted a teleportation spell on me. That might explain how I got here."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwItj0HsNs
Now continuing to be confused, but also shocked, Woldemir pointed out a little fact. "But didn't you say that she didn't know anything about Teleportation Powers?"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntr0ylmZBq
"That could be the reason why I am here now, that's my best theory. I don't know what else to think." The situation is complex, it is a drag when you put an all powerful Electus behind an unknown spell.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtthi8XSqFx
Since books became the topic again, Woldemir pitched. "My best advice would be to look for that special book in the Crutal Castle, maybe Akareas took it with her since she clearly survived that Dungeon collapse."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbK5QQ87Oq
His eyes sparkling with hope, Mogranius looked at Woldemir as if he fell in love and expressed. "And with Eric as the Electus, surely I can teleport back in time somehow?"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2bZMlFwvw
"It is settled then, we will try to find that book." Woldemir smiled, but wanted to end that topic as well. He pointed forward and said, "Look where we have arrived!"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5MMEwrXN0
The second Mogranius looks forward, he sees the big and beautiful Crutal Town after hours and hours of travelling, they even had to stop and set up camp last night for the sake of not collapsing.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoXE7BBbpI
His mouth remains open for a little while, he is amazed to see his home again and we can't deprive you of the fact that Crutal Town is majestically beautiful.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOdVYk9Ymi
There are roots of plants spreading out everywhere, each stretching several meters through thick stone walls and colorful flowers blooming on those roots as well.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WIqAZjzAk
The Town is large itself as well, from one end to the other it surely held around five hundred houses. Most of the houses weren't exactly small either, it is indeed the wealthiest Town in [Country] Occidentis Ignis.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcOZztsKFV
A tear dropping from his left eye, surfing down his cheek before it met the ground, Mogranius stuttered. "So much has changed, yet it changed in a good way. This place looks more beautiful than ever."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UZt3NHkCI
Accidentally ruining his moment with the Town, Woldemir agreed. "I agree it is beautiful, this race has a fancy about decorating buildings or anything in general with plants. Most likely supported from the money that they force out of our race though."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7bVTEBlAf
Mogranius isn't in the best emotional position to talk, so Woldemir used this opportunity to get some things straight. "From this point, you have to be careful of what you say and do. The illustratios have a thing about throwing fines over Ignites for ridiculous reasons."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy3CNBZKgv
Raising an eyebrow, curiosity overwhelming. Mogranius asked, "What sort of reasons?"
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUyRtaqzH1
Trying to define stupidity, Woldemir shared a little case of his own. "Last summer I got fined for reading a book that wasn't about the illustratio, the finnes are outrageous as well."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOXnhcokFA
"I knew illustratios weren't particularly bright, but this tips the bucket." You can't blame the old man here, who in their right mind would fine you for reading a book?
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfVrYe8GsQ
"They are more brutal than they are stupid, If you can't pay the fines they'll throw you in the dungeon and beat you until your back is softer than your stomach." Woldemir lifted part of his shirt from behind, showing the scars that didn't disappear for over a year.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Zx9A8EKZf
As they approached Crutal Town closer and they reached the main gate, they immediately got approached by a couple of illustratio gatekeepers.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcfCJiygf4
Truly devilish looking characters, not literally though. Their skin color doesn't look like a typical stereotyped devil.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHtpuEWVAe
Their skin color is green and one other eye catching feature are their blood veins. From head to toe their veins are covered with a darker shade of green and a light dark shade of red as well here and there.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwfanJwg73
But most of the blood vein color running through their body is green.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXBxp5cPG3
Their eyes are the most devil like part about them, they have these freakish completely red eyes! Difficult to look at without getting uncomfortable especially if one is yelling at you.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAdRPk7yTb
These gatekeepers have fairly long hair too, much like every other race in these medieval times but theirs is green in colour. These body features however weren't nearly enough devil like compared to their tongue and behaviour.
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDlsZwLagk
As soon as the Gatekeepers approached the Wagon, one of them pulls out a longsword and turned towards Mogranius, shouting. "State your business here you diseased devilish Ignite or my sword will be meeting your neck."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAZ0dYidOF
Before Mogranius utters a single word, Woldemir jumps in the conversation and shouts. "Do not hurt him, he is my cousin. He comes from the other side of our Country [Occidentis Ignis]."
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCj4A1LPi9
The other gate keeper replies with, "Oh so basically he is a worthless rag from Gaster Town?"
