16 Chapter 16 (2/2)
No one should steal my father's possession especially that book.
”Talk!” I shouted. He won't say anything. I don't have a choice but to bring you to brother Mavien. Good luck!
”Blazing fire and deadly earth, pair of vigorous entities, I summon thee!” I chanted.
I waited for Elis and Ivy to appear but nothing happened and I heard something breaking. It's the ice spikes! He's trying to escape. Okay, focus Irvene and try one more time.
”Blazing fire and deadly earth, pair of vigorous entities, I summon thee!” I chanted again and fire and thorns started to form into humans.
”Master!” They both said and asked me what they'll do. I pointed the man that I caught and ordered them to tie him. They're right in time because he managed to escape from my ice spikes. I really need to practice spells that didn't use too much mana.
Elis knocked him down while Ivy tied him with her plants. We made our way inside the castle and I saw Vaughn and Sid.
”Who is that?” Sid asked me while he's looking at the tied man.
”An intruder,” I said. I saw their eyes widen.
”Did you saw sister Adelaine? I remembered that Brother Mavien and Maven are busy, so I should talk to her first,” I explained.
”I'll call her,” Vaughn said. He walked upstairs while we waited for him.
Afterwards, we saw Vaughn walking downstairs with sister Adelaine. Her face shows a calm expression yet it changed when she glanced at this unconscious man.
”Irvene, will you let Elis bring him to the prison in underground? Brother Maven will deal with that man later,” she said.
”Okay,” I said.
Elis brought him underground while I let Ivy rest.
”We should be wary of the people here in the castle. There might be another intruder,” Vaughn said.
He's right and I'm lucky enough to catch that man before anything would happen. The three of us went outside the castle to breathe some fresh air.
”Irvene, did you see Meryll outside? She said that she will be back early but many hours had passed already,” Sid said.
Until we saw her walking inside and I didn't fail to saw her injuries.
”What happened to you!”
