In the world of Alterian, in the underground living areas that divided the two people, there was an abandoned site. A building that was once large and grand and had its ti above ground, had sunken below.
A path had been built on top of it, blocking them from seeing the above apart from the view at tis when drains, among other things, would be opened up.
In the destroyed large building, a regular eting that was to occur was going to take place, as two people started to approach the destroyed building, carefully stepping around the flooded wooden planks on the ground.
When reaching the center, neither of them said anything as they waited patiently. They looked at the center area in front of them, which had been cleared.
One of the hooded figures, Kelly, noticed that things had changed since the last ti she had been here. The center area where the Dark Spirit would appear, the broken and torn-up items had been removed.
Since only the two of them would arrive here to et, she had a good idea of who had done such a thing.
'Is this the way he shows his devotion to the Dark Magus, by making an area for the Dark Spirit to summon easier?' Kelly thought.
It was the eting day that the spirit said he would co again and again, but Kelly was deep in thought after the last eting she had with the Dark Spirit. The things that happened at the Academy had practically changed her life in more ways than the Dark Spirit could perhaps imagine.
At school, many people were starting to acknowledge her. No more did they treat her as soone who wasn't deserving to be there and waved and said hi. She had even received a few gifts from so of the students.
It was no doubt because those that day, who had seen the power of the Dark Spirit for a split second, or seen how friendly he was with the others, wanted to get close to him.
The thing was, no one knew who he really was, and Kelly was almost certain.
'That Dark Spirit… I don't think it's just a spirit or creation of the Dark Magus, but could very well be the Dark Magus itself, maybe sothing that even has the mories of the Dark Magus.'
'I should keep this theory to myself though, who knows how he will act if he finds out.'
Already the actions of the other man were starting to worry her. She could see him tapping his foot on the ground at first. It was getting faster by the second; once in a while, he would even kick the dirt underneath his feet.
Right now, he was pacing back and forth in the sa area, and was mumbling to himself, giving out a few exasperated grunts. Finally, when over an hour had passed from the usual eting ti, he couldn't take it anymore.
"What is going on here!" Harvey shouted. "Where is the Spirit? Why hasn't it arrived!"
"We don't know much about the Spirit," Kelly answered. "Only that it carries the will of the Dark Magus. It is quite possible that for whatever reason, they are unable to co at this ti.
"I think it might be best that the two of us focus on our current goals that he has handed to us."
The words from Kelly seed to have cald down Harvey a little as he stopped pacing back and forth, but there was still clearly the air of disappointnt over his head. She felt like it was right to keep the theory she had in her head.
"I see, you are right. We don't know the circumstances that might have occurred. The Dark Spirit could be trying to spread the ideology even further and increasing its strength. I'm sure you felt it last ti, the Dark Spirit's magic power seed to be growing," Harvey added.
Judging by the extent of what Kelly had seen it do, she had to agree.
"Did the Dark Spirit ntion anything to you last ti, since you spent quite so ti with it?" Harvey asked.
"It did not," Kelly answered, but she was thinking about the last words spoken to her. Telling her, if there was a chance for her to try and get out of the situation she was in, being involved in all of this ss, that she should get out."
"The Dark Spirit seed to have gotten whatever it was that was needed but told to continue on with my goal."
"And how is that proceeding?" Harvey asked.
"Difficult," Kelly answered. "There are certain situations, but I think things will be cleared up in a week or so, and I will be able to get an answer. And how is your task proceeding, with finding out about the Grand Magus?"
Harvey turned away and spat on the ground; the question had aggravated him.
"It's the sa for , I'm stuck currently. I have a lot of eyes that are watching at the mont so I have to be careful, very careful."
With that, Kelly thought the eting would be over. They had spoken, and it didn't seem like the Dark Magus was going to turn up, but that's when Harvey threw sothing over to her.
It glided through the air, and she managed to catch it. When she looked at what it was, there was an address on a street. It had been a while since she had gotten one of these cards.
"There is another task that the Dark Spirit gave us, the creation and the expansion of the Dark Guild. I have still been looking for mbers, and there have been reports and hints around this person in particular."
"I told you before, there are eyes on . You should head over quickly, before others get wind of this. I have delayed the information for now."
From ti to ti, Harvey would ask Kelly to go and recruit mbers to the guild. So refused to join, others found comfort in becoming part of a group, but ultimately they would lose their life or get caught.
Leaving only the two of them left. Sotis Harvey didn't even ask Kelly for help and just went himself, but when this happened, or when Harvey would ntion it, most of the ti the person wouldn't arrive at a eting.
And that's for the ones Kelly knew about. Since Harvey was loyal to the Dark Spirit and wished to expand the group, it would be better for her to try to convince others to join them.
She wanted to complain about this; she, after all, had her studies to attend. She had to focus on school, and lastly, there was the extre issue at hand of getting caught. If it happened, her entire life would be over.
Not to ntion, most of the ti she would et others that knew Dark Magic, their first interaction wouldn't be a friendly one, as their instinct was to attack any strangers approaching them.
"Don't fail this!" Harvey said, as he was already leaving the place. "The expansion of the Dark Guild is an important one, and the day we co out of the shadows will be the day the sun disappears."
