26 Contrac (1/2)

Zatiel was in his laboratory creating the runes for ´Secondary consciousness´ and ´Aerial Walk´, as for ´Transfiguration´, he has already partially understood how the rune worked, diminishing the effort he will have to put to craft it, but still, he wasn't familiarized enough with it to start creating it, and even if he was, the amount of energy that takes to create a rank 1 rune is something that he still doesn't have.

Even if the quality and quantity of the energy that a Neo-demon has is superior to one of a Magi in the same rank, to create a rank 1 rune even with the reservoir of a rank 1 lifeform it will be difficult, not counting that ´Transfiguration´ is a high grade one, and Zatiel is not even close to reaching the peak of rank 0.

Just when Zatiel was preparing to rest and end the day, an indifferent voice was heard in his house.

”Apprentice Zatiel, you are summoned to the fourth floor of the tower by the Magi Jhon, you must come immediately,” The voice left as abruptly as it arrives, given the command like if it was an absolute one without waiting for an answer.

”So they are finally contacting me, it was faster than I thought, I guess I underestimated the importance of the runes, It doesn't matter. Let's see what they want,” Zatiel was not concerned with the summoning, although most of the apprentices will felt scared if they are called by a Magi, this fear originated from the unknown that surrounds them, but to Zatiel a rank 1 Magi could not be more common.

But there was someone in the house that was not even close to being relaxed.

”Zatiel!, what happened, what did you do, why is there a Magi calling you, did you offend someone?,” Sophia seems like a machine gun firing question after question and terror could be seen in his face, an obvious sign of the fear that she has for Magis.

”Relax, they probably just want to get information about my runes, and maybe some sort of transaction, there is nothing to fear,” Zatiel will usually just ignore this type of behavior but seeing the concern in the apprentice face he chooses to explain the situation so she will calm.

Sophia was able to relax when understood that the calling was not to impart some punishment but to speak about rune crafting.

”They may want to know your process and way of crafting your runes,” Sophia may not know a lot about runes, but Zatiel talent was obvious even for her, so she was thinking that the Magis wanted to know his process.

”They already have all the information my entire process and my abilities in crafting,” Zatiel was not worried that the way he created his runes was in the open, after all, they were just some rank 0 ones, this way it will help dissipate the notion of some type of external help.

”How?, I swear that I have not talked about with anyone about what I have seen in your laboratory”. Sophia knows that besides her there was no one in Zatiel workroom, and was scared that he will tinks that she was some kind of spy

”You are not very bright, right,” Seeing the state of the woman Zatiel started teasing her.

”Hey! what is that suppose to mean?” Sophia's anxiety diminished greatly as she got upset.

Zatiel just nodded as he saw how she relax a little and started talking.

”Tell me what are Magic Towers?”

Although Sophia was confused by the question, after a moment she gave the answer she thinks is the most correct one.

”Magic Towers are the headquarters of Magis, they have the facilities they need to optimize their meditations and also the equipment needed to perform their experiment. They also can work as a stronghold to face enemies and enhance the abilities of the Magi that has control over it,” Sophia answer was a simple but very complete one filling all the basic roles of the tower.

”Correct, then tell me, will you let hundreds of people be inside something so valuable without taking some precautions?”

After a moment Sophia understood what Zatiel was getting to.

”You are saying they have surveillance in the entire tower?” Sophia could not help but start to looks as his surroundings trying to find some sort of device.
