32 Towards the Peak (1/2)
With a single step, Mist Step's body faded into the Void Portal and vanished from everyone's sight. Meanwhile, Hidden Blade began to organize everyone into neat lines with people standing in groups of five.
As the Wilderwolf Party have a total of eight people and one Magical Beast, their group was inevitably split. Jonathan and the little kitten would stick together and would be joined by three of the soldiers. Meanwhile, Uncle Kil would lead the second group with the remaining soldier's and a random person belonging to another party.
The little kitten kept her eyes on the passing by Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon as the time passed, studying the magnificent beast. Soon, after around twenty minutes had passed without issue, it was her groups time to enter the portal.
As she laid in Jonathan's sturdy hands, she heard his voice speak softly above her. ”Are you ready, little lass?”
”Meow!” The little kitten replied spiritedly.
With parallel steps, Jonathan, the soldier's and the little kitten entered the Void Portal!
Instantly, the little kitten and everyone else found themselves in a world of darkness, the same colour of the portal surrounded them to infinity. Every now and then, the little kitten noticed warps in far reaches, like ripples in water. But before she could study this further, a bright light appeared ahead of her and the rest of the group before charging at them, blinding her sight.
The next thing she knew, she found her eyes adjusting to the familiar landscape of a mountain around them. They appeared before a forest of red and orange trees and as Jonathan turned to look behind them, bringing the little kitten along with him, the little kitten could tell that they had traveled passed the clearing where the Thunder Scaled Half-Dragon's roamed.
She also noticed just a small meter from them, another Void Portal which would be where they had exited from to arrive at this place. Suddenly, before she could think on this any further, she felt her vision go blurry once more and she had a deep feeling of vertigo.
Jonathan noticed this and with a quick motion took grab of her at the waist and held her with outstretched arms, just in time for the little kitten to puke out a batch of vomit violently. Looking around, Jonathan also noticed his soldier's were also suffering with pale facces, though they were noticeably better off than the kitten in his hands.
”Couldn't they have warned us about this?” Jonathan muttered with a wry smile. To comfort the kitten, Jonathan pulled her back into his embrace and began to pat her small back softly.
'Never again... I was looking forward to what it would be like to teleport... I never thought it would feel so terrible...' The little kitten's tongue lulled out as her head swayed back in forth, her mind was still abuzz and her sight blurry, causing her to feel dizzy.
”Hey, move away from the portal.” One of the other Magician's called out. ”Unless you want to be banged in the head by the next group.”
”Ah, right!” Jonathan nodded before leading his group away from the portal, and just in time too, as the next group of people warped through the Void Portal.
Uncle Kil was the first head to pop through and unlike the little kitten and the soldier's, he came through with a loud laugh. ”Hahaha, that was quite fun! It's been a long time since I've experienced a Void Teleportation!”
The four other people in his group, consisting of the Wilderwolf Soldier's and the random Magician couldn't help but look at Uncle Kil's joyful visage with a wry smile. 'Why do the weak have to suffer so, ah~'
”Shape up, you know the teleportation portal to enter the Thunder Mountain's will be another Void Portal, no?” The surrounding people's faces paled at Uncle Kil's revelation.
