Chapter 427: Multi-Line Illusion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Before leaving this small paradise of Krakoks, they took a detour toward Seedling Village.

Without bothering the villagers, Angor used a voice transmission to speak to Papayas grandmother.

Your granddaughter will leave for the human world, never to come back. She hopes that you can go with her. If you agree, take your belongings and go to the village entrance in 10 minutes. Otherwise, well leave without you.

Angor didnt reveal his name to the old woman.

He did make a promise to Papaya. But when he arrived at the village, he realized that her grandmother seemed iller than expected. The old woman had problems both on her limbs and inside her body.

At best, it would be a blessing for this old Krakok to live through another two seasons. The long trip was definitely not something she could survive. Angor didnt think she could make it in time at all.

Yet he was once again surprised by the determination of these tiny creatures.

Slowly, Papayas grandmother limped away from her room with a small blue sack in her hand. Along her way, she greeted the other villagers with smiles and said that she was going to live with her daughter somewhere far away. She also told the villagers to use her house freely from now on.

Apart from being surprised at the news, the villagers all wished her good luck.

Angor sighed when realizing the great kindness displayed by the Krakok woman. It seemed she never tried to find out if the mysterious message was real or not. She made up her mind the moment she heard her granddaughters name.

Secretly, Angor cast a Heal at her. He didnt know whether this would help, but he did hope that the happy Krakok family could stay together longer.

Papaya already knew the plan. When Angor moved the old Krakok into the bracelet, Papaya was already waiting at the entrance of their skysc.r.a.per.

The girl rushed to her grandmother, crying.

Angor quickly stopped looking. Every time he witnessed such a touching sight, he couldnt help but think of his home and family, who waited for him beyond the horizon.

Shadow grinned devilishly. Come on, your weakness is getting clearer. Why dont you at least try to conceal those emotions?

Shadows words obeyed the basic att.i.tudes held by most wizards, but since he spoke to Angor in such a condition, he meant to offer a sincere piece of advice.

Angor only chuckled as a response. He knew he was being too kind to mortals.

However, he didnt believe this was his weakness. He would still offer help to strangers when he was willing to, be them mortals or supernaturals. However, he would only do this when such help was trivial. Anything beyond and he would expect a reward.

As for those that he wasnt willing to help well, he would see them die without lifting a finger.

Since they had different moral grounds, Angor didnt intend to argue about this matter with Shadow.

And Shadow could only shrug it off.

They left the Sorcerers Garden and returned under the dome barrier of Midworld.

The moment they left the portal, Angor felt a familiar and terrifying sense covering his skin. He looked up, and as he expected, that giant eyeball that showed nothing more than cruelty and blood-thirst was staring right at them.

Oh sh*t, how unfortunate can you get? You ran into Sesaybelles twice in a row. Shadow gulped. Well, I guess you dragged me into your mess too.

You blaming me now? Wait, is anything going to happen when it sees us? Angor noticed a small detail in Shadows words. The man didnt say anything particular last time because the monster only saw Angor back then. Now that both of them were being observed, Shadow kind of added something to his speech.

Its looking at you so that it can remember your looks. Itll be fine as long as you dont go bother it for real.

Angor gave Shadow a doubtful glance.

When Sesaybelles closed its eye again, they quickly headed toward the Deadmens Dent in Midworld.

Shadow scratched his head when he realized Angor was being TOO quiet. I didnt tell you anything because I think youd never leave the dome. Youre going to get out of Fairy World, no?

Didnt you tell me Silent Hill is right inside Midworld?

Yeah, but were not traveling in Midworld, h.e.l.l no. Its too dangerous. Shadow began to tell Angor about the different monsters that lurked in Midworld besides Sesaybelles, Magic Giants, and Magma Birds. When he noticed that Angor wasnt paying attention at all, he said, Ahem! So, the safest route is in Real World.

Where are your Krakok brothers?

I told them to wait in Real World.

Speaking of them Is their door a s.p.a.ce-related spell?

I told you its a bloodline talent they received from Lady Isabelle, right? But they can only use that thing in Fairy World.

Shadow suddenly crept closer and whispered, Lady Isabelle could do something like this because she was once the real leader of this entire plane. She went really close to the very law of Fairy World plane before.

But after she left, someone else took her position, and I think something bigs going to happen around here since shes back again. Or at least her soul is.

Inside Deadmens Dent, a group of puppet-fied apprentices including Magician was still standing in front of the portal array motionlessly. They had been like this for nearly half a month, and their bodies were getting weaker.

Theyd have been dead due to starvation if not for their supernatural bodies.

Still, Shadow couldnt care less about how his puppets were doing. He simply asked them to take positions again. Were going home! The man then made a thumbs-up gesture toward Angor.

A bright flash of light carried their bodies away.

Two hours ago, on the first floor of Dark Castle, Greya was talking about Angor again.

Felicia was enjoying her wine when Greya decided to try out Angors little gift. Upon triggering the illusion, they saw their vision blocked by a flock of white feathers.

As they were covered by Angors illusion, Greya felt her heart pounding madly; it even attracted Felicias attention.

Whats wrong?

Greya shook her head and frowned. Theres something in this illusion Im getting nervous.

Felicia failed to sense anything. Did that kid put some kind of trap in here?

No. Greya looked at the s.h.i.+fting scenery.

Sun, beach, and sand.

They were standing on a soft, golden sand field. Sea waves would occasionally bring their gifts ash.o.r.e, decorating the entire sh.o.r.eline with colorful seash.e.l.ls.

Behind them were cl.u.s.ters of palm trees.

The sky was clear.

Groups of seabirds chased each other among the snow-white clouds.

A particular gray feather suddenly landed in front of them. They both looked up to see a strange bird in a sailor uniform.

Toby.

Wine Thief!

Toby was enjoying his cruise slowly. The blue sky and sea waves in the illusion made them feel extremely relaxed. Time seemed to be slowing down.

How do you feel? Felicia asked her friend.

My heart is fine. I think it was nothing? Greya seemed confused.

Toby suddenly changed course and flew toward the inland area. Greya tried to follow him, but she wasnt really going to move her bodyshe was surprised when her view followed her mind as if she were walking for real inside the illusion.

Felicia stayed where she was and sipped her wine under the beautiful scenery. She had better things to do than minding that wine thief.

A while later, Felicia noticed that the sunlight was getting dim. A thick mist began to gather on the sea.

It changes? Interesting.

Felicia thought the flying Wine Thief was everything the illusion had to offer. She totally wasnt expecting to see new stuff when Toby already went away.

The mist was getting so thick that she could no longer see very far into the ocean.

Next, she heard a s.h.i.+p horn being sounded in the distance, followed by a giant, black silhouette, that slowly emerged from the misty barrier.

She watched with great curiosity as the shadow drew nearer.

The shadow was now close enough for Felicia to see its details. It was a broken, wooden cruiser. The statue of a peeing child stood at the s.h.i.+ps nose, while the sailcloth had holes all over In other words, it was a ghost s.h.i.+p.

Ohh, this is nice. That kid placed TWO stories in one illusion?

Getting interested, Felicia floated toward the ghost s.h.i.+p.
