Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 395: Disturbed

One week after their argument, the calm atmosphere in the Quintins' estate was suddenly broken by a commotion. A convoy of the Lioness Kingdom's knights dispatched from the capital city arrived at the front door of the estate.

It was her, the esteemed Princess of the Lioness Kingdom, Princess Gwenneth, came for Emery.

"Emery! We have found out everything and uncovered the truth. It was Fantumar. All that happened was his evil works. He was captured and beheaded already in front of the Lioness Kingdom's citizens"

"Also, another great news, Emery! Following the Logress Kingdom's decision towards the Fey people, my father, the Lioness King, already announced that we will do the same as them. We have accepted all Fey people under our banner, becoming our citizens!"

The princess then walked forward approaching Emery who stood in front of the gate watching her.

"I am truly glad you're alive, Emery. I missed you." said the beautiful princess with a smile.

With this news, it appeared everything he ever wanted was fulfilled.

However, before Emery could respond to the beautiful princess, the symbol in his hand suddenly gave off a series of messages.

[ALERT!]

[Universe is in chaos, Emergency recalling from the academy]

[Duration 100 years]

[The recall spell will activate in 5 minutes]

Emery watched all the notifications with shock on his face. This definitely had something to do with the war against the elves.

100 years would basically mean that even if he managed to survive through the war, Gwen and everyone here would probably no longer be alive when he returned.

With the minutes he had left, Emery immediately tried to explain the matter to Gwen, but once again, the symbol in his hand restricted him from doing so.

[Restriction Spell activated. You are not allowed to say any information regarding the academy to those who are not part of it.]

"Arrgggghhh!!"

He could only helplessly watch as his body began to disappear with every passing second. The last thing he saw was Gwen looking at him with a tear flowing down her cheek.

"Goodbye, Emery."

-------

Emery was startled awake from such a dream. His back was drenched with his own sweat as his mind wandered back to it. The dream was so vivid that it disturbed his heart greatly.

He quickly sat in a lotus position and began calming his anxious heart.

After a minute of serenity, Emery finally opened his eyes and let out a long sigh. A sigh that contained complex emotions.

He thought that by confronting Gwen and expressing all of his genuine thoughts to the princess last night would give some kind of release to his mind. Apparently, it only gave him more concern - something he already had a lot of on his plate.

Not long after, the morning came as the sun shared its brilliance with the world. Soon, Emery's thoughts were distracted by a knocking sound on the door. Turning his head around, he spotted the lovely red-haired girl, Morgana.

Schooling his expression into a smile, Emery asked, "What is it, Morgana?"

"Did something happen?" she asked, with a concerned tone in her voice.

Even though he was surprised by the question, Emery kept his smile, "What do you mean Morgana?"

Unexpectedly, the red-haired girl gave him a confused look before saying, "I can strangely feel that you are in pain."

Emery was completely caught off guard by her statement.

"It's just a bad dream, Morgana. No worries." Emery replied with a smile, trying to assure the girl.

At the moment, Emery found this situation to be extremely interesting. There was no way he would believe that this was a mere coincidence. This definitely had something to do with his Fey bloodline.

The thought of starting an experiment about the matter and starting his training once again quickly brought Emery's mind off what happened last night and the vivid dream.

Hearing that Emery was fine, Morgana decided to not bring the matter up again.

The two went to the dining room where breakfast had been prepared by Luna, apparently.

There, Emery saw Arthur who already enjoyed some bread with butter. The prince then inquired Emery about Gwen's sudden leave. He asked because he was worried something urgent must have happened.

The person in question, Emery, surely could not really explain what had happened. Therefore, he decided to just be quiet about it.

After breakfast, it was finally the time for them to head out to the Forbidden Forest to visit the Fey village.

Knowing the nature of the visit, Luna quickly asked for permission to be allowed to follow them.

At first, Emery wasn't sure if the idea was a good one, as maybe only Arthur's entourage was welcomed by the High Priestess. But knowing how helpful Luna had been and the fact he would probably need her to interact with the Feys more in the future, he decided to bring her also.

Before they left for their destination, Emery asked Luna if she saw a black dagger when he was brought here in wounded state by the Lioness Princess. Unfortunately, she didn't see it, slightly disappointing him.

It seemed now only Gwen's group might have an idea where the dagger was. Alas, with the situation he landed himself with the princess, Emery probably should find a time in the future to ask about it. Maybe the squire's Marc or Lucas might know anything about it.

The group consisted of Arthur, Sir Gawain, Gaious, Kastan, Luna, as well as dozen knights immediately departed for the Forbidden Forest with Emery at the front. He led them through a path that would allow them to reach the village in the shortest possible time.

The moment they reached the deep end of the forest, where Emery himself wasn't sure where to go, several dozen Akavi warriors had waited for them.

There was indeed a little tension during their first encounter. The temperamental Akavi leader, Cavvi, was there leading them and these dozen knights did give a lot of concern for this group of Fey Guardians.

Fortunately, the tension swiftly dissolved when the warriors saw Morgana. With one gaze from her, Emery and the others clearly see they turned soft. Moreover, added with the message that came from the High Priestess, informing them firsthand about this visit, the Akavi warriors reluctantly allowed Arthur's entourage to enter the village.

There, Arthur and the others, except Emery and Morgana, were amazed when they saw the elusive village with hundreds of Fey people living in it.
