87 A Journey II (1/2)

Apparently what Alexander tried to describe with tears of sorrow was that his neighbor rallied up more than half of the people by first influencing the children.

They lived in a community that was created to allow everyone to live an easy life but suddenly this person suggested that we shouldn't just rely on ourselves but trust outsiders.

His parents felt that the plan was little odd but was more neutral to it compare to people much more conservative.

There were outrageous claims they stated, suggesting that they'll kill everyone, **** all the women and sell all the kids.

Although that was a possibility that most villagers understood, it was impossible for the smartest people in their village to just get that easily tricked.

His neighbor suggested numerous plans to counter such a situation to ever happen by possibly looking for other villages to ally themselves with, it was always rejected.

At this point, he was far too frustrated and heard a stupid rumor by one of the nearby clans when a hunter had accidentally gone to another territory.

The basis of the message that Alexander guessed was that they said something about an ancient artifact that will ensure a person with power that no one could refute.

The neighbor was too frustrated at the traditional old people in this village and when they finally rejected another of his plan did everything go wrong.

Like a whisper of insinuation, his neighbor acted like a puppet by another village and was like a test subject for them to test any old books in their heritage.

One of those books was apparently nameless but from the diagrams, they guessed it was akin to a Summoning Magic.

Dean wanted to question why Alexander seemed so scared when it was just Summoning Magic but his face clearly showed that if he asked that question then he would receive a beating.

Alexander phrased that 'it was so familiar that I could remember it as if it was yesterday.'

The night sky was far brighter than normal and a voice echoed throughout the icy land

”Which mortal dared to summon my existence in such a weak land without any faith.”

”Sacrifice yourself now and my anger shall be appeased or else, be ready to face the consequences”

He didn't know whether the neighbor was just a coward or someone who was curious enough to know what the 'consequences' was.

In an instant, the being had no patience.

The village was lit into flames and everything turned to chaos.

Dean was skeptical that such a beast could be summoned but he guessed that if there was enough of a sacrifice then you could summon anything.

From the way it was described, Dean thought the whole village were mortals meaning it would be easy to kill everyone either way.

But he shouldn't say such rude words when he saw how pained Alexander currently looked

Mother and Father both panicked bringing three horses.

Escaping out of that hell hole, they could hear laughter.

It was utter amusement and fireworks were sent flying through the sky at every direction.

They were little fire arrows that followed after the people escaping.

His father tried to combat this by hitting it, it served ineffective while his mother saw what was happening and made a decisive action.

Jumping from the horse, she whacked our horse so that the fire arrows barely nipped the the legs of our horse.
