Betty Davis lowered her head, hiding her face under the brim of her witch’s hat. Both her hands were clasping the hem of her robe, her small fists clenched tight.
Philia tried to break the tension:
“Let’s first go to the guest room. I’ll explain the situation to you.”
Gardner waved his hand in dismissal:
“No need for that. I don’t want to waste time on pleasantries. Each second we linger here subtracts from our training time in the Elemental Realm. The longer we dilly-dally, the more we lose. You get what I mean? Well, probably not, considering you only have two rings…”
Kevin elbowed his companion to cut him off and courteously interrupted:
“Don’t mind his ramblings, Philia. We were reassigned here on short notice and had to interrupt our training in the Elemental Realm. So Gardner is understandably disgruntled. Just give us the task orders you’ve prepared. We need to get back soon.”
Philia fumbled around in her magic pouch for a moment and pulled out a scroll made from magic parchment.
With a snap of his fingers, Gardner extended a thin ribbon of fire from the Elemental Fire Sphere on his left shoulder and wrapped the rolled parchment with it. He unrolled it in front of himself and Kevin.
Gardner and Kevin read through the order book on the parchment, discussing quietly.
Kevin murmured:
“A Soul-stealing Wizard and a Mental Wizard. The strength of the Soul-stealing Wizard is undetermined, but it shouldn’t be too strong, likely below three-ringed. The Mental Wizard is a Wizard Criminal named Samuelson, possessing a non-combat strength of seven rings.”
Gardner let out a dismissive scoff:
“A seventh-ring Mental Wizard. Sounds intimidating, but in reality, Mental Wizards are generally useless in battle. The mutually destructive battle methods of the Mental Wizards, ensuring they could never become fight specialists. I estimated that this so-called Samuelson, the seventh-ring Mental Wizard, at most, probably only has the combat strength of three rings. No wonder the academy dispatched us two, each merely five-ringed Combat Wizards to assist.”
Gardner and Kevin exchanged a look, slowly nodding in agreement about the enemies’ probable strength level.
Gardner stashed the order book into his magic pouch, tilting his chin towards Philia:
“Take us to the entrance of the underground passage now. We’ll head to Black City immediately.”
“Don’t you need some preparation? There might be other Wandering Wizards in Black City…” Philia asked, leading the way.
Gardner replied offhandedly:
“No preparation is needed. We will just eliminate all illegal individuals in the Black City.”
Philia was taken aback by his casualness. She opened her mouth, hesitated, and then asked:
“Are you that confident in your abilities?”
