Chapter 470: The future Changed (1/2)

The latest two members of the Redwings had settled in nicely with everyone. Roy, for one was a nice addition to the ever-growing magic team. If anything, he was surprised to see Lenny there, who was another former tower master from Roland academy.

Now that he was on good terms with them, they had even offered to talk to the academy and explain the whole situation. There was a chance Roy could even get his old job back. However, Roy refused, the role never really suited him, anyway. He was never there for the students, but just so he could have a place where he could further his own powers.

The Redwings seemed like it would be a good place for that as well, not that Roy was doing anything beneficial. They quickly realized that he was quite the lazy type. He would lie down and sleep in most of the time, and would only do things when asked. Some were wondering how he even got his strong powers in the first place.

Since it took hard work and dedication for one to grow their magical abilities. Still, one person could always get him to snap into action, and that was Bliss. She had no time for his nonsense, and when he learned that she was really the Divine being, he chuckled. That day was burned in his mind after that.

There were many things she did as proof that scarred him for life.

As for Roki, he was also relaxing. They offered him the role of a teacher in the city, but he said he didn't want to step on anyone's toes. That they already had the best teachers, they needed here. With Harry and Kyle teaching the sash knights. Even Dan and the others showed great skill.

What he would do though, was from time to time spar with the other Redwing main members hoping to improve their skill. Harry, Kyle, Dan, Badger, Sloth, even Slyvia and Martha. The old master knights would have a go from time to time, such as Sir K and Wilfred.

It might have been because they were closer in age, but Wilfred and Sir K got on best with them.

During the time of their return, the Alure kingdom also announced that it would no longer be treating the Redwings as an outsider. They didn't disclose the closeness of their relationship. Only that they wouldn't do as the empire asked and would open up trade with them once again.

The other kingdoms, including the Redwings, were watching closely at the empire's reaction, but there seemed to be nothing. There were no messages, no news, it was as if they didn't care and had ignored it completely.

According to Roki, this was very odd. The Alexander he knew would never have let this just go by, especially after the all kingdom tournament. As soon as one didn't follow their commands, soon more would follow.

He couldn't help but think that something serious had to be going on in the empire that they were unaware of. With no information coming out, they could only speculate.

So much time had passed, so much had happened and now there was only one week left until the fated year, the agreed time with Gary, yet there was still no sign of Ray having come back and the system was still down between the Redwing members.

Because of what was happening, Bliss decided to do something she didn't like doing at all. She was going to attempt to look into the current future once more. Before, their chances of winning relied on Ray, Van the prince, and herself. They had obtained some allies that she hadn't seen in the vision.

Meaning somewhere along the way things changed, but the biggest change of all was, Ray wasn't here. Preparations in her research room had been made, and a magic circle had been drawn on the floor, instead of activating it away, or using a crystal. She herself had chosen to step into it.

Once sat down, the circle was activated. The energy began to channel through her. Her eyes started to fill with a blue glow. Images started to flash through her head; of the grand city no longer being there, completely destroyed, and Gary smiling. While Van had been captured and handed over to the other side.

The vision had ended, and so had the spell. She huffed and puffed at the site, and felt a little sick. Sometimes experiencing the future was more real than she would have liked.

”The future, it became worse,” Bliss said.

As soon as Bliss had informed Sylvia of what she had seen, a meeting was to be called, and the council room was filled in once again with the Master knights, Lenny, Bliss and the council members.
