Chapter 242: Whisper Valley
Within seconds, Louise flew past the city wall, reached the outskirts, and moved towards the southern direction.
At that mont, 'Vivian' opened her eyes slowly and soon widened her eyes in surprise.
"T-Teacher?! How did you find ? Wait! Put down. Enemy placed so mark on to track down my location." An anxious voice ca out of her mouth.
At that mont, Vivian suddenly suspended in the air and hurriedly descended towards the ground.
"Whom did you encounter?" Louise asked in a startled tone.
Upon hearing her voice, Charles made a fearful expression on his face and answered in a female voice.
"She appears more like a foreigner with black hair. And, she used fire magic." Her voice contains a trace of anxiousness.
"Fire Magic?" Louise's eyes widened for a mont before she asked.
"Did she have deep-set jade eyes and tan skin? Did she appear around 25 years old?"
anwhile, Charles was deeply startled by her words and asked in a shocked tone.
"H-How did you know?"
In truth, he was indeed shocked inside.
On the other hand, Louise calmly stepped on the grassy ground, looked at the surroundings trees for a mont, and then asked a strange question.
"Do you know anything about the mysterious person nad Charles?"
"'Cough' Y-You an the Ancient Mage Oswald's grandson? I did hear so rumors about him. Wait… Casey also said sothing about him like that kid killed so a higher-up of the Divine Order." Charles said in a confused tone.
"Oh? Even I didn't hear about it." A surprised expression appeared on her face as she placed 'Vivian' on the ground, flipped her body, and made her back facing upward.
"Anyway, this Charles seems to be good at disguising and this black-haired woman is one of his disguises. A few days ago, a new helper ca from sowhere and he is the one who gave such important information to us." She said with a serious look on her face.
In the anti, Charles let out a painful grunt and asked.
"A new helper? What's his na? Is he from our main organization? Destiny Conquerors?"
There was a hint of excitent that appeared in his feminine tone.
On the other hand, Louise let out a disappointing sigh and shook her head.
"No. It seems he is a servant of our Lord Reid's friend and even our Lord doesn't know about his real na. But he introduced himself as 'The Sea'. I don't even know why he chose that la na as his nickna."
As Charles's heard those words, his whole body stiffened up for a mont.
'The Sea… Sea… Where have I heard that strange nickna? Wait… It's the fake Arbiter of Storm, Willy Pickton's nickna! During the final battle, he made so strange gestures and escape using so teleportation-like skill… But how did he appear here? Sothing is not right… He is a servant of Lord Reid's friend? That skeleton has so connection with Red Prince?' Multiple questions whirled in his head. [Ref. Chap. 74.]
'Now that I think about it, this 'Divine' also seems to have so connection with Red Prince… Yeah, the amber Church's Archbishop used so curse magic spell on to restrict my growth… Then, there is the clue about Rodia's Gem… And, there is one more important clue… Both of them are good at manipulating one's Fate… It seems the 'Divine' and 'Red Prince' really has so deep connection.' As he thought of these two, he couldn't help but show a nervous smile.
On the other hand, Louise used her bare hands, moved his shirt upward, and let out a loud gasp.
Even in the gloomy night, she saw multiple eerie black marks on her back and got stunned for a mont.
"No good… These are not black marks… These are the strange black flas! Vivian, do you still rember the mont when our assassins died of strange black flas during the previous kidnapping incident?"
"Y-Yes, Teacher," Charles responded in a tired tone.
"It's the sa thing," Louise said as she pulled down her shirt, flipped her body, and once again carried her with both hands.
"Hold on to tightly." Saying so, she cast [Zephyr's Wings] spell and flew upward.
She continued to fly in the southern direction for the next two hours and soon reached a low land between two Rocky Mountains.
It was the main entrance to their base!
Whisper Valley!
She then made a circle in the sky, moved towards the right side mountain, and descended.
Within seconds, she landed on the mountain base, dispelled the wing spell, and started walking towards a particular underground cave.
On the other hand, the silver-haired woman in Louise's hands already entered into an 'unconscious' state and seed to have no movent.
During this ti, Charles did not attempt to probe the surroundings and acted as if he was really in an unconscious state.
Once Louise appeared near the cavern entrance, she used her wisdom power, checked for any life signs, and walked in.
She then recited a short chanting as she walked towards the end of the cavern, cut her finger using her wind magic, put a drop of blood on the floor, and then spoke a strange word.
"Riege."
The next instant, the space around her began to distort and soon sucked both of them into the void!
The surroundings started to change a mont later, and soon Louise found herself standing in front of a 700 to 800-ter tall black tower!
Surrounding the tower was filled with tens of huts, small tens, and even a few houses.
Charles slightly opened his eyes and soon saw Louise was running towards the tower entrance while carrying him like a princess.
At that mont, he also saw hundreds of black-cloaked n stood at the entrance and seed to be listening to a certain blue-robed woman's order.
Charles slowly shut his eyes while letting out a painful moan and started to think.
'This black tower is their main base and there are more than ten secondary entrances to this tower from all over the kingdom. If I'm not wrong, more than 40 Rank-3 Mystics are working for this skeleton Reid and constantly supplying children here from each part of the kingdom. I need to find out Reid's true goal for gathering children. If this is an Elental Tower, I wouldn't have dared to sneak in. But, this tower didn't have any tower spirit and is an empty shell. As long as I gather enough information, I can screw up this whole damn thing.'
On the other hand, two black-masked guards stopped Louise at the entrance and asked her to drop blood on a crystalline box.
Then, they also asked her to put a drop of Vivian's blood and checked both of their identities.
When they checked Vivian's identity using his blood, Charles was also prepared for the worst possibility.
Thankfully, his [Shape-shifting] skill did a good job replicating Vivian's DNA or so magical compound to identify soone and saved him from trouble.
Once the primary checking was over, Louise stepped in, moved towards the staircase, and started walking upstairs.
