Chapter 366: Reopened Door

“So, are you doing alchemy or not?” Shadow asked.

Angor considered and decided to confirm this question. “Yes.”

“My my…” Shadow sighed. “Another one lost to his fantasies.”

Angor was pretty confused to see Shadow’s reaction. This was his first time to see someone disdaining the occupation of an alchemist like this.

He thought for a moment and said something which he had never told anyone before.

“Actually, I’m pretty good at it.”

Shadow seemed unconvinced.

“Is there a Wizard Fair around here? Maybe I can go buy something from them,” Angor asked. He didn’t insist on persuading Shadow.

“I’m afraid there are only two Wizard Fairs in Fairy World. One north and one south. I just came back from one. But it’s pretty far. You can follow the map if you really need to find it.”

“How far exactly?”

“It’s not on Gloom Continent. You need to cross an ocean and another land…” Shadow considered before he added, “With a flying vehicle and enough fuel, you will make it in about 90 days. If you don’t have one… just don’t go. Trust me.”

Ninety days on a flying vehicle?

Angor felt his heart getting heavier.

“How long do I need to reach that tree exit of Fairy World?”

Shadow noticed Angor’s anxiety and chuckled. “A little bit farther than Wizard Fair. Three months, or four.”

Angor felt really disappointed now. There was no way he could make it to the purification garden at this rate.

But he quickly went over it. The garden was only a plus for his wizardry studies. Without one, he could always proceed as he always had been.

Angor made up his mind and gave up on visiting Floating Mech City. “Where else can I find materials? They’re not anything valuable. There’s that Silent Hill you mentioned. Can I check them out?”

“You can… but that place is also like, a thousand kilometers away. You sure you want to go?”

“I will.” Angor believed it would take him years or more to travel away from Fairy World by foot. He had to get himself a vehicle.

Shadow took out a map and put an “X” which indicated Silent Hill. He then passed it to Angor.

“The map of Fairy World.”

Shadow then took out a pocket watch and checked. It was 2:38 am.

Angor checked the map and noticed there were seven independent continents in Fairy World, while the sea stretched toward infinity. The map said that he was now on the “Gloom Continent”, which looked the same size as Africa; it was also the third biggest continent among the seven continents.

The exit of Fairy World was located on the edge of another crescent-shaped continent, which was across the vast ocean water.

Angor felt his heart sunk.

An appendage plane already looked so big. So how large was Fey Continent, which was supposed to be countless times larger than Fairy World? Could he make it back to Old Earth in three years at all?

Angor managed to conceal his concern in the presence of a stranger and silently put away the map.

“Thanks,” he said. Shadow was only following their agreement, but it didn’t prevent him from expressing courtesy.

Shadow was looking at his watch again. Ten minutes till 3 am.

“Aren’t you leaving now?” Shadow felt uneasiness climbing onto his heart. “I think you should.”

“Hold on, I still have another thing to ask,” Angor said when he noticed Shadow’s strange reaction. He didn’t want to trouble this man further, but he still planned to learn everything that he would need. “How to get to Darkivil Empire once I’m out of Fairy World?”

“Darkivil Empire?” Shadow frowned and went over his memory. “You mean that underground nation?”

“Yes, their capital is called Midnight Sovereign. I’m heading there.”

Shadow inspected Angor again. “You’re an apprentice from Brute Cavern?”

Brute Cavern was the biggest organization near Darkivil Empire, so Shadow was only taking the most probable assumption. “I don’t really need to know,” he said and waved a hand casually. “You don’t have to answer.”

“Well, I am from there,” Angor answered straightaway. He never intended to keep his origin a secret.

“I see. No wonder why you can use such illusions. The Phantom Master came from that place…” Shadow nodded. “It’s too far to get to Brute Cavern even with a good vehicle. Ten years maybe. Well, unless…”

“Unless?” Angor would never attempt to spend such a long time traveling.

“Unless you can use a teleportation station. There is one in Silent Hill, but you need to pay enough crystals to use it,” Shadow said. He suddenly put a hand against his chest and scowled. “Most wizard organizations provide teleportation. But I won’t recommend it because the body of an apprentice usually cannot survive such long-range teleportation. You should find a wizard who’s willing to protect you or get yourself a defensive bloodline. Otherwise, you’ll find your body breaking down in the middle of a teleport.”

After that, Shadow released a long breath in relief.

Oh f*ck, this Kurna pact. It got me just because I wanted to keep the drawbacks of teleportation a secret!

He cursed in his mind.

“And, and that seat—” He felt his heart aching again when thinking about Angor’s position.

“I can teleport from Silent Hill?” Angor asked.

Shadow nodded painfully. “Yes, but not directly to Brute Cavern. As I said, apprentices cannot undergo long teleportations.”

“Can they send me to Floating Mech City?”

“Huh?” Shadow frowned again. “Why do you want to go there?”

“Just tell me.”

“Yes. Floating Mech City is neutral standing and they remain on good terms with many organizations. But you can’t endure that teleport either.”

“I’m an alchemist. I can always make myself some sort of protection or something, or… look for a bloodline in Silent Hill.”

Sunders once told him that a better choice was to find the bloodline from a nightmare monster, but he didn’t have many choices now.

“You do know that a bloodline’s really expensive stuff, right?”

“Again, I’m an alchemist. I know how to make money.”

“I see. But how can you tell if your bloodline will be successful? Oh, forget it. It does me no good in breaking your hope. Can I ask your reason for going to Floating Mech City though? There’s no teleport station toward Brute Cavern in that place.”

“Why are you so interested in my routes?”

“I’m not.” Shadow shrugged. “I asked because I’m from Floating Mech City.”

Angor was surprised to find out that he had been speaking to a member of the Floating Mech City all along.

Before he could speak again however, the pocket watch in Shadow’s hand clicked as it indicated 3 am.

Angor heard a series of distant giggles reaching his ears as if someone was laughing from another dimension.

“This is—”

Unknown fear suddenly climbed upon his spine, making him sweat all of a sudden.

“Argh!!!”

On Angor’s chest, just below his heart, a small door slowly emerged and was pushed open, tearing a small part of his skin off.

Three Krakoks appeared from the door while laughing.

When the door was closed again, the open wound on Angor’s chest began to bleed out like mad. The sudden pain and blood loss from his chest immediately sent him into a coma before he could do anything.

Shadow watched Angor fall and grinned. “You chose that spot on your own, and I asked you to leave already. It ain’t my fault you didn’t listen.”

As scheduled, the three Krakok brothers would open up their door on that spot at 3 am each day, no matter who or what was occupying the seat.

Even if it meant opening a door from inside a human body.

Shadow couldn’t hold back his laughter anymore.

Kurna’s Pact eh?

It was so easy to get around! Even a perfect covenant couldn’t stop this young bastard from finding trouble on his own!

Toby’s feathers all stood up when he heard Shadow’s previous words. The bird immediately understood that this shady figure just tricked Angor. He quickly took out some gauze from his Snowy Feather and tried to suppress Angor’s chest wound.

“Hey, where did that come from?” Shadow looked at Toby’s movement and wondered. “A space storage?!”

Many wizards would find such a thing to be too extravagant, and a bird was carrying one around?

The look of unhinged avarice quickly crept up Shadow’s face.
