Chapter 68 - 67 Another Master? (1/2)

A few days went and passed and no movement from the other Faction of Servants occurred in New York or any major city on the east coast. Gray and Caster had created dozens of bounded fields in every city, and any trace of a Servant would've been detected by the pair.

The Team had also visited most cities for any trace of those with Command Seals, although Rin was hidden from them by Gray. Zatanna and Dr Fate were both practitioners of magic, so both were sėnsɨtɨvė to any foreign magical powers leaving and entering the city.

The Lord of Order returned to Mount Justice, where he was expecting the Team to give him an update on their trip to Chicago yesterday, any leads or information on Masters or Servants were supposed to be delivered to him, as well as the rest of the League.

Nabu, through the eyes of Giovanni scanned the former base of the Justice League, only to find absolutely no life signs in the entire place. Only a single note left in front of the zeta tube with the image of a little Zatanna with a peace sign could be seen in the corner.

”.... To anyone this may concern, the Team is currently spending some time at Mareena's house. For an emergency, just call Robin or Kaldur.....”.

Giovanni smiled behind the mask before Nabu took control over his body once more and he zeta tubed back to the Watchtower. No matter where they were in the world, so long as the Team was all together, they would be able to do anything.....

At least, that's what he'd like to say....

”How boring. Is this all that the mages of today can achieve? I can say with absolute certainty, I'm disappointed”.

The Team all looked with with a cringe as Zatanna's body hit the ground once more as a beautiful purple haired woman waved her wand around healing all the injuries that she dealt to the now fifteen year old girl. It was Zatanna's birthday a few days ago, the first one without her father....

The girl gritted her teeth and stood up once more. Her spell-casting speed was much slower than her father's, given how he had over twenty more years experience on her.

She didn't think that Caster had much on her considering that the Servant did noting but lounge around all day eating ice cream and sitting in front of the air conditioner or by the poolside. It irked her to no end to see Gray waiting on her every command.

When she saw Gray call her his ”goddess”, that was when things got out of hand.

”I don't give a damn if your a goddess or just a demon, I'll still beat you”.

The eleven members of the Team as well as Caster were all standing in Gray's basement. A large room underneath his building, that was created with shikigami and reinforced with Bounded Fields and talismans. Caster even contributed to its making, reassuring to her Master that it was absolutely impossible for anyone to sneak in, puffing out her ċhėst with her hands on her hɨps as she did so.

Zatanna received several worried glances from M'gann and Wally. While most of the others looked on without any form of disapproving or approving gaze, respecting her wishes for more training.

The fifteen year old looked up at the glass box above her, noting Gray standing in the corner with a similar emotionless look on his face. She noted Caster turn and look towards Gray for a moment, before Caster rolled her eyes.

”It was not me who started this affair. It was the girl who dėsɨrėd to fight me”.

Zatanna saw Gray's brows furrow before Dick spoke towards the Pseudo-Servant in front of him, the magic user in the arena below was unable to hear her teammates words, due to the Bounded Fields Gray placed on the glass box.

”.... You want Caster to keep going? I didn't pick you for a sadist Dick”.

The first iteration of Robin rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses and looked towards Caster waving her wand and creating dozens of runes where the trail passed through. Each rune, although heavily suppressed, had about the power of a hand grenade behind them.

Kaldur next to the protégé of Batman nodded and spoke up,
