Rebirth Of Abium

"It may be scared of us now. And most likely, it wouldn"t be able to heal itself. Kill it soon." Fennelis shouted while cutting the remaining wing.

With a nod, Roysia gripped her sword tighter and slashed her sword, which was imbued with dark energy.

Slash!

The sword directly cut that Wyvern"s head and soon fell on the ground with a loud thud while spraying scarlet blood everywhere.

"Why didn"t it restore to its original appearance?" Nadine walked near to that head and muttered out loud in confusion.

"I never heard of any shape-shifter like creature in my life." Smith also arrived near to that creature and said with a frown.

Soon, they noticed the head starting to turn into ash, and the wings and body also began to turn into ash. Finally, they saw the dark, creepy smiling humanoid creature with white eyes at the center of those ash. Its black hand was dismembered, and its head also decapitated. What made even scarier was, they saw those two white eyes were appeared broken like gla.s.s.

"Where the h.e.l.l is this monster came from?" Hooper asked with a shocking expression on his face.

"Maybe from another plane," Said Fennelis with a grim tone. She thought they were the first one to travel across to another plane and felt a bit proud earlier. But now, after seeing this creature, she understood there seem to be more people who were exploring other planes.

"Another plane? Like Abyss?" Nadine asked with a surprised tone. Everyone had heard of those legends of demons and devils and felt baffled a bit.

"Maybe. But I"m not sure. For now, let"s just burn this creature and go quickly towards Silverland." Fennelis said with a sigh and soon took out a matchbox from her ring along with some tree oil. Without minding others" questionable gazes, she poured all of them onto that creature"s body and lit it.

"Let"s go." She moved towards Umi, who looked at everything with daze and patted her head.

Soon, the group packed their belongings and continued their journey.

…

At the same time, in Roguedale town,

Piers, who was staying inside a two-storied mansion, suddenly stood up with a painful expression on his face, and his expression turned ugly.

"Did they manage to kill my pet?" He muttered to himself with a shocking expression and soon walked out of his room.

"I must ask help from his Excellency to send a few men to kill them. Those filthy monster must be eliminated." He said with a cold expression and soon began to write a letter. Of course, he was going to put all the blame on those both beast kins and make their life miserable.

…

On 4th February, around 3 A.M, the group arrived at the entrance of Silverland city gate. They stood at the entrance of the eastern gate and entered inside while paying a few coins to the gatekeeper.

The group hid their ident.i.ty and walked inside the city with vigilant expression.

Once they walked inside that city, they saw neatly constructed roads and buildings and was genuinely astounded. Like they had come to a different world. They even saw a few magical carriages running on their own without any horses and almost shouted in shock.

"Everyone says that mage is a generous guy. They say he is an alchemist, and he is doing this for the sake of improving the lifestyle of commoners and warriors. But I don"t think so. Simply buying one of those magical vehicles will cost around 500 white gold coins." Selma grunted and soon continued.

"Even if we work harder for years by taking missions, we wouldn"t be able to save that much money. Even if we did that, I wouldn"t waste my money on that. Basically, that mage is using these artifacts to earn more money from the n.o.bles and planning on moving somewhere in a few years." Selma started muttering with a sigh.

"So what are we going to do from now on? I don"t think we have enough money to stay here forever." Without minding Selma"s mutter, suddenly, Smith turned his head towards everyone and asked with a serious tone.

"Yes, in this large city, even a normal meal will cost five copper to 1 silver coin, and adding with Inn rent, it will be impossible for us to stay here more than two months," Fennelis added.

"First, we will look for the cheapest Inn and think about what to do next," Roysia said.

"Lady Roysia, Lady Elianor gave me this letter to deliver it to Silverland"s adventurer"s guild," Fennelis suddenly turned her head towards Roysia and said while taking out a letter from her spatial ring.

"Hmm, I heard my elder sister have a friend who is working in this city"s guild office. We should go and deliver this letter first." With a nod, Roysia quickly suggested as she reached out her right hand and grabbed that thin sealed letter.

"Then, we will go and wait in some cheapest Inn. Once you arrived at the Commoners" Borough, use this ring to contact me." Hooper took out a communication ring and threw it to Fennelis. Soon, the group split up into two. Fennelis, Roysia, and Umi moved towards the Merchants" Borough, which located in the east while the adventurers" team moved towards Commoners" Borough.

Soon, the trio crossed a large fountain at the center of that city and entered the Merchants" Borough where the guilds were located. Promptly, they arrived in front of the 44 adventurer"s guild in Merchants" street and walked inside. It was a three-storied building and many warriors moving in and out constantly.

Once the trio entered, Roysia quickly moved towards the receptionist"s desk and showed the letter cover to the receptionist girl who had natural black hair, blue eyes, and average height with a beautiful oval face. After noticing the letter outer cover, the receptionist told them to stay in the waiting room and ran towards the second floor.

With a nod, the trio moved to the waiting room near to the reception hall and waited quietly.

After a few minutes, the receptionist returned with a pouch of gold coins to the waiting room and said a few words.

"Chief said thanks for bringing this letter to him. Also, he told you guys to don"t go outside of this city."

Fennelis nodded her head and took out another letter from her spatial ring and gave it to that black-haired receptionist girl.

"What is this, ma"am?" That black-haired girl got surprised and asked in a curious tone.

"Can you please send this letter to Peral kingdom?" Fennelis asked with a low tone. The receptionist lady quickly took out that letter while giving a curious look and nodded rapidly.

"Yes, ma"am. But it will take at least two to three weeks to deliver this letter to the recipient." She said with a frown.

"That"s okay." After thanking her, Fennelis walked out of the adventurer"s guild and started walking towards the Commoners" Borough.

"Where are you sending this letter to?" Roysia asked while knitting her brows.

"To Bare Keep town. I"m just asking a kid if he has enough time to help us." Fennelis said while strolling towards out of the Merchants" Borough and suddenly asked. "Ma"am, what do you think about those adventurers?"

"Hmm, nothing. Well, they look pretty much normal adventurers and always appear to be working harder." Roysia said while showing no emotions. No one knows what she was actually thinking. But suddenly Umi, who had been keeping quiet all this time, surprisingly joined their conversation.

"I felt something from that big uncle Hooper."

"What is it?"

Both Fennelis and Roysia opened their eyes wide in surprise and asked her in unison.

"Mama, it"s the same thing I saw when fighting that big lizard monster near to that black lake along with pointy ear brother." Her words caused Fennelis to become more puzzlement. Fennelis didn"t know what that thing Umi was talking about and starting to ask deeper while leaving Roysia into more confusion.

"What is that thing, Umi?" Fennelis asked with a frown.

"Red crystal. I sensed the same red crystal energy from that uncle"s heart." Her words made Fennelis stiffen up.

"Red crystal? Is she talking about the red crystal that attached to the undead Wyvern in the undead plane?" She mumbled inwardly.

"It is creepy and is in a sleepy state." Umi continued when noticing her mother"s expression. In the last few months, Umi didn"t just follow her mother and do as like normal child. She asked many questions about those bone peoples and even started to understand a few things. Although most of the time, Umi would end up sleeping when listening to her mother"s explanation, she still began to guess which was good and evil. At the same time, Fennelis expression froze.

"Miasmas! That skeleton lord said it is pure evil and came from the outside world. Did someone put that evil miasma into Hooper? Then who?"

"Good. Umi, keep an eye on him and tell me if something unusual happens, okay?" Soon Fennelis returned to her calm state and said with a soft smile, then continued to walk.

With a nod, Umi also followed after Fennelis while Roysia ran after them with an understanding expression on her face. Soon, the trio crossed the main road and quickly entered Commoners" Borough. At the same time, Fennelis also took out the communication ring and activated it.

Instantly, Hooper, from the other side, answered the call and quickly replied.

"Ma"am, We are in Red meat Inn, 58 Elm Street."

"Okay. We are on our way." Fennelis replied and quickly cut off the connection. Soon, the trio reached the Elm street and finally found the Red meat Inn at the further corner of the street.

After booking rooms for the next two months, everyone gathered in a large room. The room was arranged with a table and chairs. One by one, all of them sat on the seat while Roysia stood near to Hooper and Fennelis.

Everyone had serious expressions on their faces. Soon, Roysia shifted her gaze towards Hooper and asked with a sad smile on her face.

"Have you ever heard of Red Python?" Her tone was low, but her words were like sharp daggers, which contains immeasurable killing intent.

Suddenly, Hooper"s whole body trembled and almost unsheathed his sword, but Roysia was a bit faster. Her sword instantly arrived at Hooper"s neck, startling everyone inside the room.

"What are you doing, Lady Roysia?" Fennelis also got confused and asked with puzzlement.

"Well, I just thought it was just a coincidental to meet these guys at the Roguedale at first. But I started to feel more puzzled when they didn"t split up and move towards Peral kingdom instead followed us here. No adventurer would be willing to follow a random person for nothing." She paused as she moved her blade closer towards Hooper"s neck.

"So, you mean they are followed here for you?" Fennelis asked with a surprised expression.

"I don"t know about others, and from their facial expression on their face, I can tell they are also clueless about this situation." Roysia glanced at Selma and others and shook her head with a sigh then continued. "Moreover, Hooper didn"t attack us when we were facing against that shape-shifter enemy, which gave me another information. That is, he doesn"t have any hidden ties with that shape-shifter. If my guess is right, he must have some ties with the Red python."

"Possibly, Hooper brought his team members to Roguedale while making a reason like going to the Peral kingdom due to civil war and use that opportunity to a.s.sa.s.sinate me during their journey. But he hadn"t expected to meet an unknown, dangerous enemy inside the Roguedale, which caused his plan to ruin completely." Once her words ended, the whole hall filled with dead silence. Roysia"s explanation dumbfounded, even Fennelis.

"But how did you find out he is a member of Red python?" Fennelis asked with a curious tone while gripping her sword hilt with her right hand.

Instantly, Roysia"s lips curled up, and she continued to explain. "Well, when Umi mentioned the dark evil sleeping inside his heart, I suddenly felt everything linked together. That might be the reason he didn"t feel willing to become a light follower and using your faith as an excuse to become a retainer. After all, if he is a follower of an evil G.o.d, the light priests can easily find out." She finished her words while glancing her hooded amber eyes towards Nadine.

Nadine suddenly turned her head at Roysia"s direction, asked with a gloomy expression.

"What it had to do with that Red python?"

Roysia chuckled and asked. "Do you know why King Sewallus of Peral kingdom suddenly died last month?"

"I-Isn"t it because he became ill due to curse?" Selma asked with a complicated emotion on her face. This change was too sudden, which caused her feelings to lose control.

"No. King Sewallus was a.s.sa.s.sinated directly in front of everyone. And the organization who planned that a.s.sa.s.sination was Red python. On the same day king Sewallus had died, for the first time demon appeared inside the royal garden to steal something. Although with Lady Tabitha"s help, we managed to avoid big catastrophe, still, that incident caused great humiliation to the royal family and academic mages." Her words caused all of them to widen their eyes in shock.

"How did you know this much lady?" Smith asked while straightening his back.

"Well, I was a Royal knight captain of Peral kingdom a month ago. But after that incident, my t.i.tle, position, and everything got stripped and demoted to a normal knight. But I don"t want to be a normal knight, so I came here planning to seek help from a certain organization. It appears the Red python members didn"t like that I"m starting to searching for clues about them." She muttered with a helpless tone.

"So, what do you plan to do with me, ma"am?" Hooper asked with a stiff tone. He hadn"t expected his secrets were wholly seen through by this lady. Moreover, he was shocked inside by the news about a demon being the one who controls the organization. All this time, he had thought it was an ancient G.o.d who woke up from his deep sleep.

"Nothing. A demon had already written your future, Hooper. The only way you could avoid that catastrophe is to help me." She said with a wide grin on her face. But Hooper suddenly felt a venomous snake was staring him.
