Chapter 42: Magnus

¤●¤

Cedric Chambers

Cedric is seated on a black armchair, relaxing, the back of one of his hands rested at the side of his head, his eyes closed as if meditating, the moonlight reflecting on his pale skin, shiny against the full moon reflection.

Suddenly he felt his name being mentioned with power within them.

He slowly opened his emerald eyes, his powers stirring as the air grew chilly by it, the cold wind blustering in making the curtains and light materials within his chambers dance from it.

"Magnus" a deep voice came, a shadow moving from its place on the ground forming his loyal servant, Beowulf, the black wolf before him, his crimson gaze fixed on him.

"If she finds out" he began.

"She's the only one who knows you bear that name if she seeks de-"

"Silence!" his voice was brief, not coercive but it held power.

Beowulf's body shook from the mere sound of it, he wondered what his master's plan was, to let this silver-haired find out about his existence? Or stop her from knowing, he pondered what he had in mind, he just hoped it was the right thing.

But still curious he was, his master have never shown interest in anyone.

I lighted the candles back, where did that breeze come from? I was beginning to wonder, and the air was so chilly, I pulled my robe more to my body.

I sat back on my seat, to resume my reading, I just caught a glimpse of what this Magnus was, it wasn't a what but a who. A powerful warlock said to have roamed this earth for centuries and the oldest of them all.

But I felt there was more to it, I flipped the pages... I froze.

"That's it?" I blinked puzzled, I was already at the end of it, was that all it was to Magnus? I pondered.

A man of dark arts and its founder.

"Just that?" I said faintly in a daze.

I remembered Cora's words, how much meaning it held when she said I should beware of him, I had a feeling the reason was more than this dark arts.

She called Cedric, Magnus, and right here it said their spirits were sometimes eternal, could it be that Cedric was the reincarnation of this Magnus? That has to be the only explanation, right?

I checked the pages once again, not even a picture of this Magnus like the rest had or any extended information at all.

I sighed deeply, perhaps I took the Incomplete book, I would search for another tomorrow, yes I will do that, perhaps in another book, there was full info of this Magnus.

☆☆☆

I looked through the 20th book that had any info to do with warlocks and I found nothing, nothing at all.

I turned to the shelves of books, I sighed, was I about to go through all these plenty books for the name Magnus? When I haven't even found them in the warlock section.

I sighed once again, this could be only mean there wasn't any text about it again, good riddance.

"Shall I be of any assistance, My lady?"

I turned to Cedric's personal Librarian, he seemed young, hmm, I guess my age or younger, dressed in formal attire, and a black wing cap to cover his real hair color.

He had helped me since I have been here, to search for any book with the content of warlock, he has really been a great help, I needn't stress him more.

"Not at all, you have been a great help... umm"

"Colinus, my lady," he said with a dashing smile.

He had a beautiful eye color, they were honey brown and clear, filled with light and intelligence, the name suited him well.

"Thank you Colinus, I believe I'm done for the day".

He gave a nod, clapping his hands briefly.

I gasp when the books scattered on the table, magically closed and floated to the shelves arranging neatly.

I was in awe at this, magic still surprises me, by the time I turned to Colinus he was already walking far ahead, as the book arranges itself.

"My lady" Olivia's voice came in.

I turned to her, watching as she carried a tray of snacks and tea towards me settling it on the table.

"You had no breakfast this morning, I thought I should bring this in"

I smiled.

"Thank you, Olivia".

She smiled.

"Oh I forgot the tea, I will be right back my lady"

"There no-"

Gosh that girl was fast she was already out of the library, I sighed smiling, Olivia was really a sweet girl.

My eyes fell on the shelves, all the hope I had of finding something about Magnus was gone, my hope was at least finding something in books, books always had the answers, but it appears not all of them.

☆Faint Clang Sound☆

My head turned towards the direction of the sound, even how faint I heard it, it came from the deepest part of the library, where Colinus exited from.

Being the curious person I was, I saunter towards the direction of the sound.

This Library was really big, everywhere I saw was books, Cedric must really be a man of knowledge, to keep this much several collections of books.

My eyes traveled as I ventured towards the direction of the sound, the sound became more prominent as I did. I turned towards another hall, where I saw no shelves just a long wide lobby leading somewhere.

I followed the path and then came in view of a wide space, I gasp staring at the view before me, the space looked like a cathedral, the ceiling was well crafted with every detail, a chandelier was suspended to it, lighted with candles, about three were also against the two sides of the wall but not as big as the one against the ceiling, they gave this atmosphere of calmness and solitude.

The walls were well crafted majestically, black wallpapers but embodied with golden design, I was sure this particular building was crafted by masters of art, due to all the details.

The center had a chess color floor, it was marble, smooth and shiny, but all that didn't catch my eye but the man standing in the center, engaging in something that took my breath away.
