8 Learning magic | Part II (2/2)
”Oh! I sense no hostility to us as well, Master,” she added while nodding like an idiot.
I guess revoking our bond temporarily just makes it a little too much for her. Anyway, I continued walking in between these stone knight golems, as Sprigg calls them until we reached the last two stone knight golems with intricate design bronze armour and sheathed silver rapiers stationed at their midsections with both arms crossed.
In spite of the fact that we didn't learn my friend Morning Dew's whereabouts, I see no clues as to where he had been or where we could find him in this realm. As I gazed my eyes outside, I see the entire kingdom is surrounded by lushed green vast trees stretching beyond my sight. I haven't noticed it before but this dwelling might be the only place where we can only find people, supposedly. Yet, this seems to be an incorrect assumption now.
Looking at the entirety of the forest that rests outside the city, I remembered the one thing that helps gave me the pixie egg and move forward with hatching it to the castle - the floating box.
”Say, Sprigg. Do you know something about the huge flying black box inside the jungle with lines carved in it? That also gave me your egg and provided instructions on how to hatch you?” I asked her while walking down the cobblestone pavement but the moment I stepped outside the city, the glowing words appeared again.
”You are exiting the safe zone. Will you proceed. Yes/No?”
”Yes, master. That is the artefact from the Supreme God helping the system assisting the world.” looking at the glowing box hovering in front of me, she swerved and added ”It is safe to say that there are a lot of them hidden outside the human world, just like this pocket dimension adjacent to the human world, we call alternate realms. The Supreme God bestowed them as a gift to the Faes who stabilizes the world from their powerful magic.”
”Do you think that if we acquire it we can escape from here and use it to help me go back to my normal life?” Holding on to my original plans I asked her with joyful eyes.
I pressed Yes to proceed while conversing to Sprigg. Well, this message only means to continue walking without the protection of King City's barrier. I haven't realized this barrier since I ran as quickly as possible once. At least that's what I felt with what Sprigg taught me with detection magic recently, she said to never remove the enchantments. The magic barrier extends to the edge of the forest where beasts reside, keeping them from attacking me before I passed over to this King's City.
I suddenly fell into my knees as if there's a large and heavy beast I am carrying the moment I stepped outside the city walls. Is this what she meant by carrying large boulders on my shoulder? I looked at Sprigg who kept flying within my reach.
”Uh... There is no such thing as normal? Especially now you acquired and integrated the origin magic similar to the Queen's into your own. Are you fine, Master?” she replied and approached me, helping me to get up.
