เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มี.ค. 2569 15:30

Chumo, Thrax, and Julian all left hurriedly to carry out their own tasks. With the limited time ticking, Emery could only put his trust in them and hoped none got hurt. Grand Magus Aurora was also ready to leave the Magus Academy, returning to the Light Institute to guard the God Crystal. Before she left, the female grand magus gave Emery a silver emblem with a wing pattern engraved on it. "This item represents my authority, you will need this for your task today." After saying those words, she proceeded to leave without giving any detail or instruction regarding the item, leaving Emery at a loss as to what to do with it. Still, he kept the emblem safely. With the time he had left, Emery still had two major tasks that needed to be dealt with. One was to go toward Zodiac City and convince the Supreme Commander about the impending attack. Two was to find out exactly how the elves were going to infiltrate the academy to get Magister Griffith's attention and stop it from happening. Emery anxiously tried to search his memory to find the answer and finally what appeared to be the last pieces of the puzzle flash into his mind. The recall spell. Emery was distraught thinking about why he had not remembered this sooner. This was most likely the answer to how the elves had managed to infiltrate the academy. Not only was it cast through the academy made seal he had on his palm, the timing of the recall spell was very coincidental with the academy's invasion. "Did they use the academy's recall spell to enter the academy? Is that even possible?" Hearing about the matter Klea added what she knew about the spell "The academy recall spell is not a simple spell at all. It's a tier 9 spell that requires ample preparation and supporting high grade artifacts." "We need to bring this information to the Magister right away!" Unfortunately with the limited time, Emery couldn't help but hesitate, the matter with the supreme commander needed to be handled right away. As if knowing what Emery was thinking through his facial expression, Klea quickly made a suggestion for the dilemma he had. "If anyone can convince the Supreme Commander, it's you Emery. Especially with the tense situation between humans and half-bloods that is currently going on. You are, after all, a hero in their eyes right now." With this line of thought, Klea volunteered to be the one who would find out and solve the issue in the academy with the magister. That way, Emery would be able to go and convince the Supreme Commander without any worries. Klea further convinced Emery she would call the help of Sigurd's master, Anas, and the Kaleos acolytes to help observe the situation. In the meantime, she herself would seek more information on the academy's recall spell. They needed to find out how the recall spell actually worked, or any other way that could allow thousands of elves to pass through the Magus Academy's defenses without being detected, so they could convince the magister afterward. "Just leave it to me, Emery." She said reassuringly. "I will definitely find out about this and convince the magister with the answer." Emery still seemed reluctant to hand over this task to Klea. Seeing this, the latter pushed the former while saying, "You should go now. Don't waste any more time! If you are that worried, then finish your task quickly and come back to help me!" The last sentence she spoke finally convinced Emery. Holding her hand, he looked into her eyes and said, "I will return as soon as i can… If… if things go south I need you to stay away from the fight… stay safe." The girl replied with a nod and not to waste any more seconds Emery quickly created a [Spatial Gate] that would bring him to the Magus Academy teleportation gate. But then, he was stopped in his tracks when he reached the highly-guarded teleportation gate. One of the guards rejects his choice of destination. "It is currently prohibited to enter Zodiac City!" Emery completely forgot about the lockdown and, without a doubt, he would only waste more time to return and seek official permission from Magister Griffith. As his mind was at a loss as to what to do, an idea suddenly came to him. Thinking there was no harm in trying, he went ahead and took out the emblem Grand Magus Aurora had given him. Showing the emblem to the guards, he said in a confident manner, "I am Grand Magus Aurora's envoy. Open access to the teleportation gate, I must enter Zodiac City right now!" Unexpectedly, this impromptu idea of his work. The emblem proved to be extremely effective as the guards swiftly opened a path for him and even let him cut through the crowd to use the teleportation gate. One step into the portal and he arrived in Zodiac City the next second. As soon as he arrived on the other side, Emery was greeted with many agitated looks as dozens of half-blood warriors guarding the teleportation gate all had their weapons drawn. "Who are you? State your purpose here!" Fortunately, thanks to his status as one of only two half-blood finalists at the tournament, Emery was quickly recognized by these people. "Isn't that Emery Ambrose?!" "That's the savage acolyte!" "Why is he here?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞 A magus-level half-blood captain walked up to him, inquiring about his purpose for coming here. However, before he could say anything, their attention was distracted by loud bangs in the air, which were followed by strong wind, earth shattering tremors, and volatile fluctuations of spirit energy. There must have been a fight going on not far away and, from how intense the spirit energy was, the participants were at least grand magus. The captain said, "The city is not safe, you should not have come here." "I bring important message, I need to see the Supreme Commander" Not waiting for an answer, Emery cast his [Anti-gravity] spell in combination with his [Light Wing] before his figure shot up into the sky. He quickly noticed the two Magus Alliance warships that were supposed to be in orbit were actually hovering above the city and to his surprise was shooting bombardment to the ground while being attacked by three huge dragons. "No! What is going on here?!" Emery was shocked to see what lied in front of him, he didn't realize things would escalate this far. It was an all-out battle between Zodiac city against the Magus Alliance.
