Emery's figure appeared and was flung out of a swirling portal. He had arrived at the surface with such force that he was sent tumbling across the ground until all of his body's momentum was dissipated.
"Annara!"
Without even cleaning himself, Emery quickly gathered his spirit energy and concentrated to create another Spatial Gate to connect him back to the underground prison. Unfortunately, he was unable to do so as his targeted area was severely disrupted by the bursts of spirit energy that resulted from the grand magus' fight.
It was only then that he realized that the situation above ground was actually not much different than down below. Loud screams and deafening sounds resounded in the air, accompanied by a huge smoke cloud blotting out the sun and a blazing fire that burned the Magus Alliance headquarters in the distance.
In the area around him, he could see dozens of enforcers struggling to stop the hundreds of inmates who had rushed out of the prison in an attempt to escape.
There was also another ferocious battle of grand magus figures going on in the sky; Magister Barty seemed to be fighting what appeared to be someone hailing from the Tiger bloodline.
The entire city had devolved into chaos.
After taking a moment to observe everything, Emery decided to ignore them and once again put his effort on his previous task. He once again mustered his focus to open a portal to reach back to Annara.
However he noticed three figures approaching towards him. They were covered in black cloaks and all emanated typical magus-level signatures. But most importantly, the group was led by a female Tiger bloodline who was smiling wickedly at him.
"Haha, do you not recognize me, little pup?" said the figure with a chuckle, her smile still hanging on her face.
Even though he did not recognize who the other party was, Emery knew that he was in danger and thus he quickly prepared himself for battle. On the other hand, his reaction seemed to offend the woman as her face turned extremely ugly.
"How dare you forget me?! It's your fault that I'm in this… this hideous form!"
As her anger exploded like a volcano, the temperature in the surrounding area dropped sharply as she said hatefully, "Kill him!"
Like arrows shot from a bow, all of these magus including the female Tiger bloodline charged towards Emery at the same time and he quickly responded to their advance.
Knowing that these people's killing intent was serious, Emery didn't dare to be careless and let alone take risks. Without the slightest hesitation, he cast the best defensive spell in his repertoire while simultaneously preparing his next move.
[Aegis of the Void]
As his spell finished taking effect fully, the three magus arrived before him. One was using a massive ax, one cast wind spell that sent razor-sharp wind blades, while the female tiger half-blood unleashed a powerful ice spell.
With all three of them attacking at the same time, it only took them seconds to break Emery's shield. However, a few seconds was enough time for Emery to cast [Blink] and retreat to a safe distance.
"Huh!! Such a slimy bastard!!" shouted the female tiger magus in irritation.
Fortunately, the pill given by Annara had worked rapidly. Emery was healthy enough to transform and narrowly avoid all 3 attacks.
Then, what happened afterward was beyond Emery's comprehension.
The magic symbol in his hand was glowing.
With that, a notification appeared in his mind and his eyes widened in shock when he read what it was about.
[5 minutes left until recall]
Emery remembers what this was. This was the same message and sensation he had felt before he teleported to the Magus Academy. To receive such a message so suddenly, something was definitely amiss.
Recall? At this kind of time? Where? Home?

To further elevate his shock and confusion, the female tiger magus in front of him also had a glow on her palm. An exasperated expression could be seen on her face, as if what she was reading was irritating her greatly.
"Arrghh!! I need more time!!"
Snapping her head towards Emery, the female magus once again fiercely charged at him, throwing another powerful ice spell that froze the surrounding area. Emery hastily moved out of the way, casting [Aegis of the Void], hiding behind its protection while his mind was still trying to put the puzzle together.
However, before he could even organize his thoughts, Emery's body involuntarily stiffened as he felt the aura of a powerful grand magus heading directly towards him. A muscular tiger half-blood with white fur suddenly descended from above. Without even a glance at Emery, he spoke to the female tiger magus.
"Nameria, we need to leave right now! the Supreme Magus is coming!"
"Arrgh!! Brother, give me another minute! Let me crush this dog!" the female magus said in an annoyed tone, her hateful words were directed at none other than Emery. Alas, the only response she obtained was a guttural growl that sent her to silence.
She then gave Emery one last glance as she spoke her parting words with a wicked smile. "Huh! I will see you again shortly, little pup."
Before Emery could wonder what she meant by that, all four figures retreated from the area. And surprisingly, they were not heading towards the city or outside the city, but instead went deep into the prison building.
When he heard the great magus call out the female magus' name, Emery recalled a memory. Nameria was the name of a half-blood magus who had died in the Kulturmak planet's secret mission.
He remembered the name because he had kept the magus' spirit soul with him for months. He became even more confident in his guess as he recalled what she had revealed earlier. Tiger bloodline, ice element affinity, and the fact that he saw Lord Esbern down in the prison earlier; all this could not be a coincidence.
Then, his mind stopped at the words Nameria had said before she left with the unknown grand magus. When he recalled how the tiger half-blood seemed to know about the recall, Emery couldn't help but feel shiver down his spine.
Most likely, this countdown that had gone below two minutes meant a bad thing.
[1 minute left until recall]
While he was deep in thought trying to make sense of the entire situation, Emery remembered the last words Annara had said to him.
(What… am.. I thinking… I will never get away…)
(You.. probably can.. your space and gravity is the key…)
Just like his previous times of recall, as the last seconds of the countdown closed by, Emery could feel spatial distortions starting to appear in the area where he was standing, and at such moment, Annara's words suddenly made sense for him.
Annara probably knew that a recall would come for both of them and she was betting that Emery could stop it.
Emery quickly channeled his spirit cores and read the undulating waves of space and gravity. . With his newfound comprehension of space and gravity he began to counteract the spatial distortions. When the countdown finally hit zero, Emery could feel the surrounding spatial energy trying to pull him into the fabric of space, and like a shield, he resisted the force.
The space around him distorted so greatly that his figure would look bizarre to any onlookers, but in the end Emery managed to negate the forced teleportation and was still standing in front of the destroyed prison.
Another message entered his mind
[Recall failed]
However, despite his success, he suddenly felt a heavy burden on his heart.
Something really terrible must have happened.
