Chapter 179 Regaleon’s Worries (2/2)

”Oh yes. Alicia's cat Snow has just woken up.” William said. I see Snow lift her head slowly and looked at me. ”She said she wants to talk you.”

Snow was Alicia's familiar and because of that they have a link with each other. Snow was living off of Alicia's magic essence and so they are linked with each other like how Tempest is linked to me.

After the battle in the ambushed parade, Tempest was able to survive the arrow shot. He was able to evade at the last second and the arrow only hit his right wing. As for Snow, after Alicia had gone berserk, she was also found unconscious. Snow was able to help many of my soldiers during the battle and guarded the unconscious William back then. After she became unconscious, my soldiers took her to me. The doctors said that Snow's injuries were minimal but she wasn't waking up. When William was recuperating, he asked me if he could take care of Snow as a thank you for helping him.

I had my doubts as to why Snow wasn't able to wake up because this has not yet happened to me and Tempest before. But now seeing that Snow has woken up after I received the news that Alicia also has woken up confirmed my doubts. A familiar's link to its master is really beyond what I currently know.

Snow that was nestled in William's arms leaped towards my lap slowly. She was still weak.

'Regaleon, I want to go to Alicia.' Snow talked to me telepathically. 'I am worried about her.'

Unlike me and Tempest that can talk telepathically at a distance because we have a link as familiar and master, Snow needs to have physical contact to telepathically talk to me. I guess Snow had also talked to William like this as well.

”I understand that you are worried about her. I am also worried. But we can't go in there blind.” I said to her. ”Let's wait for further information like Dimitri said. And you need to gather your strength as well. You are still weak.”

'Alicia's magic is still in disarray. Now that she is awake, I can feed off of some of her magical essence. But I am afraid there is something there that is blocking her magic from reorganizing.' Snow said.

'Could it be the rock that nullifies magic abilities?' I thought. I have only read about this rock in the texts of the last Great War.

”Don't worry about it. For now you must rest and regain your strength. I will inform you at once if we have further information.” I said.

I looked at William signaling him to take Snow so that she can rest. He nodded and carefully took Snow and nestled her in his arms.

”Thank you your majesty.” William bowed.

”It is nothing. I am sure that you are also worried as well.” I replied. ”If it is okay with you, I will need your presence by my side starting tomorrow. You are one of the only men whom I could trust.”

William was taken aback by my words but then smiled. ”Then I will be of service to you your majesty.” He bowed and left my office. ”Please use my skills as you deem fit.”

”Dimitri, bring me all of the information you can gather about that magic nullifying rock from Jennova.” I said once the door was closed. ”I want it as soon as possible.”

”Yes your majesty.” Dimitri nodded.

If Alicia's magic is being nullified then she can't use it to her advantage. I need to think of a way to rescue her as quickly as possible.
