Chapter 69: Master of Space. I (2/2)

Rain seemed quite familiar with the spell as she spoke first. ”It's most likely the Tier 2 wind element spell Whirlwind, it doesn't have much attack power and its movement speed is mediocre at best so it's only used as distractions, if there is a fight going on then I think someone might've noticed us and wants to attract us out for some reason.”

Tyler nodded as he agreed with what she said and Rain looked pleased with herself. He thought for a while about what to do and decided. With Albert handling the undead he couldn't send anyone out to check and he wasn't a fan of just waiting for the situation to develop as he wouldn't be in control of such developments as fate always had a way of messing with him. His only option now was to go himself.

His speed had made him confident in surviving most situations before but now that he had the Spatial Infinity ring he was sure he wouldn't die out there as long as there wasn't a restriction set up against all forms of Teleportation magic. 'Shit! I only have one use left for spatial movement.' He sighed inwardly.

In any case, he had scrolls he could use in case of an emergency so he made up his mind. ”Alright, I'll go check it out.”

”What!” Both the sentry and the girls exclaimed in unison and Tyler was almost startled. ”Umm, lord Ty, why don't you send me, I'm quite skilled in reconnaissance, well I've never actually done a reconnaissance mission but I was trained by the best.”

Tyler looked at Rain puff her chest out in confidence and couldn't help admire the childlike look in her eyes. He tilted his head and chuckled.

”It's fine, I plan to capture them and not just see what's going on. They might prove to be of use to me.”

”Then why not send the three of us, I'm sure we can handle that as well,” Liz interjected and Erin nodded. Tyler wasn't sure why they were trying to protect him but he still hadn't told them that he only wanted to go because he was now a master of escape and wouldn't put himself in unnecessary danger. He also wasn't the type to put other people at risk for his safety, well, unless he hated that person, then it was fine.

He shook his head and answered. ”No it's fine, I can get there faster and leave if the need arises so it's safer this way.” Although the girls were flattered he cared about them enough to worry, they knew it still wasn't safe to let him go alone and he was the most important person in the barrier, without him, they would all be doomed. While Rain was eager to prove herself to him and Erin was thinking about the bigger picture, Liz was sorely just worried about his safety and was about to speak when...

”There isn't much time to waste so I'll be going now,” Tyler said waving his hands as he was about to use spatial movement to leave the hall. Spatial movement could only take him to somewhere within his line of sight and Tyler wouldn't be able to reach the barrier from within the castle. Logically he should have walked outside the castle before using the skill for the last time today. However, he was running out of excuses to tell the girls so so he just wanted to escape.

He wished the skill was like the Teleportation spell that could take you anywhere you had been to before within a certain range, if it was he would be able to go from here all the way to the barrier without having to waste his last use of the skill for nothing.

Due to this thought process, he was thinking about the entrance to the barrier, the one he had first entered this castle through as he activated the skill when suddenly, he heard a voice yell out to him. ”Please wait!” Rain yelled as she saw Tyler about to disappear and almost tackled him in a bid to tag along, her persistence was either admirable or troublesome.

However, Tyler wasn't prepared for this as he had hurriedly turned around to see the dark beauty flying towards him and his lips met a pair of cherry red ones that were as soft as marshmallows and sweeter than strawberries. Well, that was all he could think to compare them to as he unknowingly activated both the Spatial Distortion skill and Spatial Movement, appearing outside the barrier in the same place he had to visualize earlier, yet his mind was not on this achievement but the warm body pressed against his.

Rain slowly pulled herself away from Ty as she placed her hand on her lips with a timid expression that Tyler would have never guessed this girl could make. He hadn't even recovered from the kiss yet when he saw her smile slightly and locked arms with him pressing her ample bosom on him. ”We should go, right? You said we don't have much time.” She said with what Tyler considered the most seductive expression a girl could have.

Of course, Tyler had masterful control over his body so he quickly recovered. It may have been over a thousand years since he kissed a girl but now was not the time for that. After calming down a bit, he looked around wanting to use spatial movement again so they could arrive at the barrier having forgotten he was out of use, however, he soon noticed they were already out of the barrier.

He thought back and realized what had happened, by activating both of the skills in the Spatial infinity ring he could achieve the same effect as Teleportation.

He was increasingly more impressed by his ring and couldn't help but feel like a true master of space. Not to mention the fact that he had also teleported outside the barrier a fact that he had automatically considered impossible and had been limiting himself with that thought. It was indeed true that only entry to the castle was restricted by the barrier so he had no idea why he had thought that way when it came to teleporting.

Tyler then heard the loud sound of shattered glass that gave him back some of his senses and he raised his head to see. Using his magic vision he spotted the silhouette of three figures in the far distance. It was a distance that he could cover in a few seconds if he used his full speed, but Tyler could shorten that time to zero just by deceiving the space around him and eliminating the distance.

Tyler then activated Spatial Distortion, a skill that had no limits. He then took a single step.
