None of the two Holy Priests stopped moving. However, both of them seed to have their guard up.
"When did you get the Prison? Wasn't it lost ever since the last Holy War?" Avilia inquired. As far as she rembered, the Prison of Teiri was an item that was kept by the Holy Church of Darkness.
Many forces wanted this Nun after the war ended but no one could find it at all.
"After the last Holy War," Yael replied. Now that he already told about the existence of the Prison, there was no need for him to hide it. In any case, he didn't believe that Avilia could tell the other Holy Lords since her own secrets were much worse.
"So the Church of Wind got the Prison in the last Holy War and kept it a secret from the others?! You're all pretty good at acting!"
"We just don't believe in showing off," Yael shrugged lazily.
"Why didn't you use the prison on Gabriel though?" Avilia asked. If Yael had sothing like that, he could definitely hold back Gabriel for a short while until the backup arrived. It didn't make sense as to why he didn't use it. Unless...
"You didn't want to stop him in the first place?" Avilia frowned. "Why?"
She couldn't understand just what Yael was planning and why he didn't take action before. Moreover, why was he telling her now?
Yael slowed down and glanced back at Avilia. "Because I don't have to do anything at all. He'll die even if I don't lift a finger. His existence... There's a reason why no one inherited this Elent for centuries. You'll know soon enough..."
"I hope you don't throw your life away for him when the ti cos. It would be such a waste..." The Holy Lord of Wind stepped out of the City, finally leaving the place.
Avilia was left inside the city, lost in thought. The words seed to imply a lot of things which even she found hard to understand. Just what did Yael know that she didn't? And how was it that he wasn't surprised even after knowing that Gabriel controlled three elents? It was as if... That wasn't Surprising at all?
"The reason Necromancy had disappeared thousands of years ago?" Avilia frowned. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't guess the reason. Necromancy was the most mysterious elent after all. There weren't many ntions of it. Even so of the Holy Lords hadn't heard of that Elent in the past, let alone knowing the mysteries behind it!
Avilia didn't know what Yael knew. However, she understood one thing. She had unintentionally gotten involved in sothing that was far beyond the understanding of this world.
Yael disappeared into the distance while Avilia went back to the Church of Light to find Gabriel.
When she reached the Church of Light, she was inford that Gabriel wasn't there. He hadn't returned ever since he left last ti.
Avilia stood before the entrance of the Church, slightly concerned. Gabriel had left the Academy. However, he wasn't in the city? Then where did he go? How could he disappear like that?
Since she couldn't sense him, she assud that Gabriel was inside the Church. If that wasn't the case, that ant that Gabriel was already far away from her.
"Did he go back to Arecia on his own?"
Since Gabriel wasn't there, Avilia also summoned her Majestic Eagle and left the Lun City, going back to Arecia.
****
It was the second ti Gabriel had arrived in Lun City, and both tis, he affected the Academy of Elents in a way that made it look as if he had so enmity with the Academy.
None in the Academy knew that Gabriel didn't even know anyone in the academy to that extent, let alone having an enmity. If only the Academy knew that Gabriel just wanted to look into a mirror at this academy this ti and they lost their Dean for no reason, it was unknown just how much blood they would've coughed!
Leaving great devastation behind, Gabriel had left the City. However, he didn't directly leave. After he left Yael and Avilia, he hadn't left the Academy. Instead, he had gone to their storage!
The Academy still didn't know that all their Spirit Stones were once again robbed. Only a single spirit stone was left behind in the storage!
By the ti the Head Teachers found out, Gabriel had already gone far away!
****
Gabriel travelled all alone this ti. He was sowhat missing travelling on a summoned Eagle since that was easier and more comfortable. Sitting on the eagle, he could also train without having to focus on the other things.
Unfortunately, Avilia was with Yael and he didn't want to wait for her to get rid of Yael. He was already in a hurry!
After training in the tower, his spells of Light had improved once again. He also managed to increase his flight speed, which wasn't much lower than the speed of Avilia's eagle now.
Gabriel flew all alone in the sky during the day, only resting at night in the small cities that he could find. As far as the money was concerned, he didn't lack any either!
On his journey, he also saw many other people who were travelling in the sa direction as him. Most of the people were Royals from various Empires! The Empires which were wealthy enough used Spirit Beasts to take their heirs to the Tomb. As for the less wealthy ones, they used luxurious carriages!
One thing was certain! All these heirs were doted by their families! There was not a single heir of any Empire who wasn't escorted by a powerful mage from their Empire!
The escorting mages weren't as strong as the Head Priests, but they were much stronger than the ordinary Priests!
It was the second night of Gabriel's journey when he landed in the city to spend the night there.
After finding a good hotel, he went straight inside and placed a spirit crystal on the table of the receptionist.
"I'll take a room for the night."
The receptionist looked at the spirit stone. His eyes lit up! The man before him was certainly wealthy! A spirit stone was enough for a person to spend ten days in that hotel after all!
"Young Sir, you're really lucky. We only have one room left here. You're just in ti!" The receptionist turned around but just as he was about to pick the key, there were many shocked exclamations in the hall.
"The Royal Family of Yann is here!"
