Chapter 48 - 48: “I Don’t Know. You Can Try.” (2/2)

Fugue and Canon can't find information regarding the matter. They gather information efficiently, but when it comes to the Oracle Clan and Eu, they seem unreliable.

He can't help finding it suspicious and can only assume these two are secretly working for her. He smiled at the thought and shook his head.

'How long have you been supporting me, Eu? You always silently got my back...'

He stood up and waved his hand to tidy his desk. He decided to meet the girl instead and directly discuss matters with her.

Back in Mystic Spirit Bordertown.

Triteia and Witch Gwyddien is patiently waiting at their reserved room at the Golden Inn. They are discussing matters when Eu finally came in to join them.

”Little Eu, You finally came. We thought you got lost in the streets or got mob or something...” Triteia joked as she chuckles.

”Can't you sense anything strange around this place?” she inquired in a serious tone and ignored her joke.

Both Triteia and Gwyddien strangely looked at each other.

”Nothing really. It is like an ordinary day as always...” Triteia responded.

”You must be just feeling paranoid. There are lots of foreign people around here. Nothing strange is happening. Don't worry. I help in Arcane Palace, and nothing strange has occurred based on the reports.” Gwyddien assured her.

'That is exactly what worries me. Nobody suspects anything. Nobody except me…' she knits her brows as holds her head down and grits her teeth.

Triteia then suddenly remembers that Little Eu's hunches are always on the spot. If she felt something strange around the Mystic Spirit Border, there must be something going on. They are not even aware of it.

Eu shrugged off her concerns and turned back to Gwyddien as she sighs again. Eu pulled several parchments in her wizardry storage space.

She starts explaining the spell she is about to teach him.

”You are teaching me to summon my own familiar?” Gwyddiens chocolate hazel round eyes sparkle as he exclaims.

He always wanted to have one, but nobody in his realm dares to teach him. They are afraid he'll summon a beast beyond his capability, and it will cause havoc in their domain.

”Why not? You need your protection. We can't protect you all the time. Summon someone dependable, okay?” Eu taps his shoulder.

She pushes him out of the room and guides him where to go. Gwyd knits his brows as he notices.

”Where are we going?” Gwyddien curiously asked.

”Isn't it obvious? I am pushing you back to Limes Temple. I will teach you there.” Eu chuckled as she continued, ”In short. You are being kidnapped. Don't worry. I'll send a note on your behalf.”

She handed and advised him to wear a disguise cloak. Eu doesn't want to attract too much attention as they head back to Limes Temple.

If the enemy is there, she doesn't like them to notice her movements as well.

On their way back to Inner Courts, the group decided to stop in the Hidden Lake. It is the same place she is meeting her Master, Luc, and the one in her vision with the Divine Lord Foeni.

This place is well protected and secured by powerful magic. Not everyone can easily access this place, and she can only assume this is an Ancient Site.

The lakeside is tranquil, with unique foliage of mixed herbs a flora. The crystal blue water is sparkling against the sun's rays.

Gwyddien can't help himself marvel at this magical place. He has totally forgotten he is forcefully dragged back to Limes Temple.

Then again, he doesn't remember visiting the place. His worries are quickly replaced by excitement.

'I am going to Limes Temple! The Goddess Temple! Ahrggg... So excited. How what it's like...'

Eu notices his expression and smiles. This witch is really simple-minded after all, and anything can easily please and amaze him.

Not long, Eu sends out coded messages in the wind. It gracefully flew away, undetected and silently cruising to its destination. She cast high-level protection spells and seals with it.

”Let's begin your lesson, Gwyd. That is a wind familiar messenger spell. You can use elements this way and use them to your advantage.” Eu explains as she waves her hand and shows him how to gather elements and uses her surroundings, ”It is not a permanent familiar, meaning it will disappear once their goal has been accomplished.”

”I am an Earth Witch. Can I really do that too?” Gwyddien asked curiously.

”Witches relies on its surrounding and these elements. Earth Element is your strength, but it doesn't mean you can't use others to your advantage. It may not be as strong as your main element, but it will suffice. You need to practice your chosen second element, too, if you like.” Eu explains as she looks at his shocked face as she asked, ”You didn't know?”

”I didn't know… How did you know?” he curiously asks.

”I read it on a book my master once lent me. Witches and Oracles have common ancestry after all.” Eu explained as she continues, ”I can also teach you basic concoctions. I didn't concentrate on them, so I don't know very much about it…”

”You learn by just reading? Can I be as gifted as you?” Gwyddien chocolate hazel eyes sparkle.

Gwyd has been relying on Eu to teach him spells and stuff. For a young girl, she is very knowledgeable and reliable, after all. He always anticipates meeting her.

”I don't know. You can try.” Eu chuckles as she didn't want to burst his bubble.

Everyone said she has been breaking all restrictions. It is probably something only she can do.

”Don't worry. I'll try my best to pass unto you all of my knowledge.” Eu said as she pats his back.

She simply doesn't want to disappoint him.

Gwyd can't hide his excitement and look forward to his lessons.

Meanwhile, Eu turned to Triteia as she finally decided to accomplish what she came to do.
