31 Void Teleportation (2/2)

”These Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon's are an interesting beast.” Uncle Kil began in a whisper, only enough for his group to hear. ”All the beast's except for the Queen are androgynous and when the Queen dies, one of the beasts will eat her Inner Haven organ and will go through a metamorphosis, becoming the next queen. The fight to eat the Inner Haven organ's between the Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon's is said to shake mountain in their wake. It would truly be an amazing sight!”

”Now then, let's turn to Mist Step for the next part in our journey.” Hidden Blade said as he nods towards the Mist Step Magician who is standing by his side.

Mist Step nods back before speaking up in his usual intimidating manner. ”Listen! It will take me an hour to set up the Void Teportation Portal spell. When it is done, it will take around another half-an-hour for everyone to enter through this portal as I can only support a certain amount of people going through at a time.”

”Hmm. Void teleportation is a process of creating a rift through the void dimension, if we put to much weight upon the rift, it risks shattering and everyone who is currently travelling through that void is dead, with little error.” Hidden Blade warns and Mist Step nods in agreement. ”Now then, everyone should take this time to rest for an hour and make sure to keep an eye out for any Magical Beast's that stumble upon this area. My talisman has simply made them unable to sense us, they can still reach us, so watch out!”

”Yes!” A bunch of the gathering Magician's reply.

Soon, most everyone had settled down in this edge of the forest, resting against trees and rocks, talking about the journey behind and ahead of them while also keeping an extra eye out for any surprise threats.

The little kitten also took this time to rest, meditating to increase her healing. While she may have only suffered minor wounds during the last three days, mainly thanks due to the constant work of her surrounding allies, she still has suffered enough wounds that would hinder her if she let them be. Not to mention the exhaustion she now feels after three days of strenuous action.

As she does this, Jonathan and Uncle Kil also rest up, but their wounds are non-existent and they are happily chatting.

”Uncle, to my knowledge there are only two elements that allow for teleportation, right?” Jonathan asks as he swishes his right hand, with that casual action the growing moss and soaked area of a rock is wiped clean, perfect for when he takes a seat upon it.

”As far as I know.” Uncle Kil replies and continues after some thought. ”The two elements which allow teleportation are the Element of Space and, obviously, the Element of Void. Both are very different though. While Void Teleportation breaches the Void dimension to teleport, Space Teleportation is much simpler in contrast as it doesn't require leaving this dimension.”

”Which one's better then?” Jonathan asked.

”Hmm... I would say that they both have their advantages and disadvantages... In battle, Space Teleportation is far superior as it is instantaneous while Void Teleportation will inevitably have a delay as it requires the Magician to first enter the Void Dimension before returning to our Dimension.” Uncle Kil states, his hand on his chin as he tries to find the right words to explain this to his Nephew.

”Ah, so then is the advantage of Void Teleportation that it one can create a portal for mass teleportation?” Jonathan's eyes take on a glint as he blurts this out.

”This is one advantage. Though you have to know, Space Teleportation can also teleport people at mass. But they can't create a portal, which will remain in place for however long the user wishes, as long as it is supplied with aura once its initial supply runs dry.”

Time passed like this amidst casual conversation and every dozen minutes, a stray Magical Beast would be spotted but quickly taken care of by various Magician's and the few Tamed Magical Beast's. In the end, an hour passed like the breeze and the little kitten took a break from her meditation to see that a daunting looking portal could be seen in full view just in front of the Mist Step Magician.

This portal was around 5 meters long and curved into a circle. The center of this portal was pitch black, darker than any black the little kitten had seen before and it gave the little kitten the feeling as if she was looking into nothingnessl. At the rim of the portal, this blackness blurred into an azure colour until it was clearly aura that drifted from the portal like smoke.

”Everyone, I will go through the Void Portal first. When I reach the other end, I will set up another area of stealth using my own talisman. Then, Hidden Blade will guide you in groups of five through the portal, with a group walking through at a period of every 2-3 minutes.” Mist Step announced.

”And when we reach the other end of this portal, we will be but mere hours away from the tip of Thunder Mountain and the ruins that lie there!” Hidden Blade said with a grin as he pointed over his shoulder to the Mountain peak behind him, which was shrouded in the fog of the horizon.
