Chapter 301 - The Devils Horn (1/2)
After Evan left Rave's lab, he got on his riding beast and took off. Evan decided not to go back to his tower, as it just didn't make any sense. He had waited a long time for this moment, and it would finally happen. After all this time, he would join the Demonic Tree.
Of course, Evan could have done it before, but urgent or more promising things kept coming up. But, right now, the best option was to join the Demonic Tree. What's more, by the time Evan flew to the Demonic Tree base, Rave would have already informed the organization's top about him.
Evan decided to join the Demonic Tree now because he needed second level spells. Also, if Evan doesn't join the Demonic Tree, Rave would come after him in a year and kill him. Of course, Evan had already proven his loyalty by his actions, but he doubted it would interest Rave.
The Demonic Tree base Evan was headed to was called - Devil's Horn. It was several dozen kilometers from Vextin and Darkfil.
Devil's Horn was a semi-secret Demonic Tree base. This meant that all members of Demonic Tree knew about its location, as well as some allies. Therefore, this base was located in a place where it would be difficult to find. The Devil's Horn was located in one of the largest mountains north of The Kingdom of Fallen Hopes.
If a mage didn't know that the Demonic Tree base was there, it was impossible to know something was hiding in the mountain. What's more, it wasn't just the geographical location of the place that gave the concealment. It was the numerous formations.
Demonic Tree members were constantly flying out of Devil's Horn on their riding beasts, and it would have been very noticeable if not for the special formations. Its were set up by the strongest members of the Demonic Tree. Therefore, most mages could not realize that there was an illusion in front of them when they looked at the mountain where the Devil's Horn was located.
The Demonic Tree had quite a few spells aimed at stealth, illusion, and so on. This was because the Demonic Tree usually operated stealthily. They weren't afraid of anyone, but they didn't want unnecessary noise that never did any good.
Unlike the Demonic Tree, the Merciful Death were constantly creating and engaging in some conflict. But even if they eventually emerged victorious from these conflicts, this did not mean that their actions were justified.
The Demonic Tree preferred to mind their own business and only destroy those who got in their way.
The Demonic Tree had quite a few people like Rave, who devoted all their free time to experiments. There was no point in them wasting their time on pointless battles. Rave had only left his lab a few times recently, one of which was when he saved Evan from a mage's attack on a stage - Three-Pointed Star.
...
A few hours later, Evan was already approaching the said mountain. Avice gave Evan a special stone, and he knew exactly where the entrance was and which mountain he should fly into.
