warlock of the magus world fan fiction
Leylin began to walk and looked at the inn called “Ghosts With Grievances Don’t Weep” and smiled.
Opening the door, The whole Inn looked to be in a desolate state without any patrons.
Leylin walked towards the counter, tossing out a golden coin.
“Give me 10 private rooms….”
“Yes sir !” a person, who seemed to be the shop owner said happily and somewhat surprised at such extravagance.
The shop owner took down 10 keys that were extremely oily, as he shouted, “Pinky! Pinky! Don’t let me wait another second, if not I’ll scrape your skin off….”
* Bang! * Very soon, a dwarf which wore a grey pointed hat stood in front of the owner.
“Respected Sir, Pinky is here for your bidding….”
This dwarf named Pinky was only half of Leylin’s height. He also wore a flowery green costume, looking somewhat comical.
“Bring our esteemed guests to the rooms upstairs to rest, you know which few!”
The owner casually smacked the dwarf, before handing over the keys.
“Dear guests! Please follow Pinky! Be careful of the steps!”
Pinky touched his hat and led the way at the front.
Leylin and the rest followed behind.
“Here choose the room among yourselves Also, Glenn and Fraser come to my room in a while’s time.” Leylin gave 9 key to Glenn to distribute among themselves and went to a room with Anna.
…..
After a session of venting, Leylin ordered Anna to prepare some tea and sat relaxing on the bed . Soon Glenn and Fraser came.
” Young Master ” Both bowed down.
” I want you to purchase a house near here, for me to use as a base of operation, Go tonight and Take Anna with you, She will manage everything. I have given her order which she will relay to you in time. Remember you have to be discrete about this ”
“As you command, Young Master” All three nodded.
Leylin as of now doesn’t have any spatial bag. So he needs a temporary place to keep all the Rare herbs he harvests from Dylan gardens until he return from Academy. He will have to hold off the selling until he becomes a Rank 1 Magus.
‘ I need to make a trip to Academy at least once, I need the Advanced Potion Formula from Kroft, ‘Branded Swordsman’ scripture from Dorotte, Many Spells I could buy at extremely cheap rate and the Advanced lab for Refining the Bloodlinee’
Leylin knows he have to make a trip to Academy so he hold off in any advancement for now and decided to participate in Bloodbath, It’s not like he has any Mortal Danger there anyway, He can buy Grine Water After that and his Breakthrough into Rank 1 Magus will not cause major repercussion.
….
After 10 Odd days, A total of 9 black shadows disappeared in the town, under the dim glow of the starlight.
* Sou Sou Sou! *
A few black figures that were hard to track using the physical eyes rapidly left the town for the entrance of the Zither Moon Mountain Plains.
Leylin has left the Town with his Guards ,excluding Glenn and Fraser who went with Anna to secure a Safe house.
The pitch-black night, together with the jumbled branches and vines, could not hinder the speed of Leylin and his party.
Towering trees with their tops seemingly supporting the heavens, the dense foliage and undergrowth completely shielded them from the starlight, and only trickles of starlight were visible through the leaves.
After going past a black leafy tree, Leylin saw a dark green marsh.
The surface of the swamp had many dried branches and leaves, interspersed with the corpses of other animals.
They moved quickly, and in a few hours’ time, they had already entered the depths of the Zither Moon Mountain Plains.
At this moment, the mountain was extremely different from when they had first stepped into it.
The change in the vegetation here was to an extreme. If the Zither Moon Mountain Plains border had normal plants growing, right now, what they saw in front of them were some relatively bizarre species of plants.
The most common plants were a species of big shrubs that were white in colour and their leaves had a strange spiral form.
Every time a gust of wind blew, the sea of shrubs would move with the wind, producing a sound similar to playing the piano keys.
* Ding Ding Dong Dong! * The piano-like sounds was extremely chaotic. Leylin became aroused, feeling a need to recklessly charge forth!
“Careful! This is the Piano Key Bush. The noise it makes can attract regular humans. Even an acolyte would be somewhat affected!”
Leylin warned, He has given all his slave enhanced tranquilizing potion to resist against these attacks. He have even given them each a ‘Berserker Pill’ which will increase their battle strength by twice for 5 minutes, killing them in the end.
On the later parts of the exploration, there were traps with poisonous gases and ambushes. This was the reason a Potioneering acolyte was needed — to counteract them.
After which, Leylin and the rest met several waves of miasma and hordes of poisonous insects.
Under the aid of the potions Leylin provided, the party got through these danger zones with ease.
The party trekked over land and water, finally arriving at the overhanging cliff depicted on the map two days later.
On the edge of the cliff, there were bright yellow flowers growing on the levelled ground. In the heart of the flower, it was bright red. When it bloomed it had the size of two regular humans’ fists put together.
The whole mountaintop was filled with this strange flower, and a heavy aroma permeated the area.
The Zither Moon Mountain Plains was riddled with dangers, and various strange plants had appeared. More often than not, the more beautiful a plant was the more dangerous it was. Especially when it was close to their destination!
Leylin saw a bunch of Flower which A. I. Chip told him was Beta Daisy. He scanned the area , He knew that ‘Dylan Gardens’ appeared beneath the cliff. Moreover, there was mentioned a huge area of Beta Daisy located on the cliff above it.
The cliff was extremely high, and there were granite rocks on the razor sharp steep walls. For a regular human, climbing to the bottom was an impossible task.
“Only those who carry courage and respect will be able to see the Dylan Gardens!” Leylin Slowly muttered the lines that were written on the Map in Curagerian language and smiled.
“One has to carry a Beta Daisy. If not, the secret plane wouldn’t be opened…”
“All of you pluck this flower and Jump?” Leylin immediately plucked a Beta Daisy and placed it on his body.
All Slave showed no change in expression at all and plucked the Beta Daisy, These slaves are so well trained that These knights won’t even flinch if Leylin ask them to cut their throats.
“Jump!” Everyone each carried a Beta Daisy and jumped from the cliff.
* Bang! *
During the high-speed drop, Leylin’s skin was almost sunken from the high pressure.
His eyes slightly reddened, and he felt as if the blood in his whole body was about to shoot out but a smile adored his face all the way.
When all of them fell halfway, a circle of light shone on the precipice.
The light turned into a circle and the air writhed, revealing the scene of another dimension.
Following which, the eyes of the members gleamed, and a strong weightlessness feeling overcame them.
After the earth spinning feeling, Leylin and the rest came to a dark cave.
Leylin got up slowly. Everyone one quickly draw their swords, they knew what was going to happen. Leylin also got ready to intercept Black Horrall Snake.
