Chapter 213 - Start Planning on our Escape (1) (2/2)

”Didn't you see any magic circles? You should have been fine with the queen with you.” Jack said in confusion.

”The hallway towards the round room was filled with the magic circles but inside the room I didn't seem to see any. And by the time I stepped inside, my body felt heavy that I couldn't keep myself standing.” I explained.

Jack was holding his chin deep in thought. ”I am not so sure but I guess that magic must be different from a magic trap. Then how did you overcome that feeling?” He asked.

”When the queen held my hand I felt my body become light once more.” I said.

Jack was deep in thought once more. ”I can only conclude that the magic inside that round room was the queen's own doing. It must be some gravity controling magic?”

”Gravity magic? They can do that?” William was shocked.

”For us normal Atlantians that is an impossible feat. But for those of the royal blood, they can. They are special compared to us.” Jack said while smiling my way.

I told Jack and William what happened inside the round room. How I have fabricated a story with my mother's half of the pendant and how my aunt became furious and pushed me.

”Then that means a small area around the table in the center is a safe zone.” Jack concluded.

”I never thought of that.” I looked at Jack surprised. ”Jack, I need to get that pendant before we escape from this place.” I said with conviction.

”I understand. I will get a paper and pen so draw the outlinenof the staircase and the hallway leading to the round room. We will make a plan to steal that pendant.” Jack went out to get it.

I saw William with his head bowed down. ”What's the matter Will?” I asked.

I heard him sigh. ”I am sorry if I am of no help Alicia.” William said.

I can feel his sadness. He was feeling that he was of no help to me.

”Your wrong Will.” I patted his hair. William slowly lifted his head to look at me. ”With you near me is a big help. I cannot do anything by myself and with you here I feel much more stronger than being alone by myself in this unfamiliar place. So don't demean yourself.”

William smiled lightly and nodded. I smiled to hin in reply.
