Chapter 109 - A Fire

 

In common fire, mana would flow in the direction in which the smoke flowed out. But now, mana was heading inside as if it was pulled by something. As soon as she reached the area where the ruins were remodeled after going downstairs, she could hear people shouting breathlessly.

“You pigs! Don’t say that you’re wizards if you can’t do this much!”

“Argh! Right! Right side!”

“I’ve reached my limit! Please relieve me of my position!”

“We’ve called the guys from the Chamber of Magic, but what’s taking them so long? Urgh!”

“Director of Magic!”

Blaze was filling one side of the hallway, darting its tongue in and out like a snake. It was a strange fire that was surging like a living creature. Wizards were blocking the flames from proceeding, standing in a semicircle. Some were going back and forth in the opposite side of the hallway restlessly, putting out fire that was spread and taking out documents. The fire on that side seemed to be a common fire. Azriel saw a wizard with white beard in a blue robe in the middle of the wizards who were blocking the strange fire. He had mana that was as much as all the mana of other wizards there added together.

‘That must be Pendelok Palaios,’ she thought.

Pendelok looked exhausted. Azriel approached him right away. “You must be the Director of Magic.”

“Hmm? Who are you?” Pendelok asked.

“Char, no. You must’ve heard from His Majesty. I am Azriel Esthera,” she replied.

Pendelok’s eyes were widened. Before he could say something, Azriel quickly said. “This fire. It seems to have a magic-related cause, doesn’t it? It started from inside, right?”

“That, that’s right but…,”he hesitated.

Esthera. Azriel added another shield barrier and formed a mana barrier. When she was about to step into the surging fire, screams and shouts burst out from people around.

“No!”

“It’s danger…!” they could not finish their words.

A round space centered around her was formed in the middle of the flames. The fire that was raking wildly could not even drop a spark inside her space.

“I’ll try going in. Keep blocking it,” Azriel bowed to Pendelok Palaios and stepped into the fire. Pendelok, who had been stupefied, hurriedly shouted. “There’s, there’s Lady Sophie, Sophinea von Rudimna inside!”

Lady Rudimna? No way. Is it the child who’s a nameless wizard? Azriel looked back at him in surprise. Pendeok saw her face and opened his mouth with a bitter face. “This is… a fire she made. Please…”

Be careful. help her. He blurred the end of his sentence that could have been either way. Azriel saw that the old man’s wrinkled eyes were slightly wet. She nodded without a word and headed to the flames. It was not her first time waking in flames. In fact, she had walked in lava while learning defense-related magic from Rhema. The colors of yellow, orange, and red mixed up and swirled around her like a vortex. The heat was blocked by the barrier and could not enter, but it distorted the surroundings like haze. Instead of her distorted vision, she looked at mana.

‘To the direction where the mana is being dragged to.’

The cause of this fire must be there. Not wandering for long, she reached the cause soon. A girl with long straw-like platinum blonde hair was standing in a pool of underground water. Sophinea von Rudimna. ‘That child…’

It was the girl she ran into while roaming around the maze-like inside on the day she first visited the society. The fire seemed to have started from a doll that was rolling around the pool. It was a big teddy bear that had a bow on it like the one Azriel had received from Rhema. Because the teddy bear was wrapping the mana it drew in around its body, it did not get burned even though it was outpouring flames. The water of the pool splashed around Sophinea’s waist. In the water, the girl covered her mouth with one hand and grabbed a dagger with the other and aimed at her chest.
