Bab 23: Chapter 23 - Interesting Guy
In the dimly lit room, the air hung heavy with an air of secrecy and intrigue. The walls were draped with black velvet curtains,
"Freedom is not the best wish for a dark mage."
The beautiful woman thought as she took a deep breath.
Seated on an elegant black sofa, the woman in the black dress exuded an air of authority.
Her dark eyes gleamed confidence as her fingers lightly tapping against the armrest.
Her dress, adorned with intricate lace and satin, clung to her figure, emphasizing both her power.
Opposite her, the man in the impeccably tailored suit exuded an aura of quiet confidence. His posture was straight, his expression inscrutable behind his black-tinted glasses. His dark hair was neatly combed, and his suit, a perfect blend of sophistication and menace, accentuated his commanding presence.
"I can imagine what she thinks about the situation."
The man thought
Emotions danced in their eyes and played across their faces, hinting at hidden agendas and unspoken tensions.
The woman's voice, a smooth mixture of silk and steel, cut through the silence. "Jareth invited him to join us," she remarked, her tone both intrigued and calculated. "But he declined, didn't he?"
The man nodded slowly, his gaze never wavering from the woman's. "Yes," he replied, his voice laced with a hint of disappointment. "It seems our reputation precedes us. He values his independence, his own path."
A flicker of annoyance crossed the woman's face, her brows furrowing slightly. "Independence can be a dangerous trait, especially for those entangled in our world," she mused, her voice tinged with a mix of admiration and caution. "But it also presents an opportunity. We can use him as a pawn, a means to an end."
The man's lips curled into a sly smile, a glint of amusement dancing in his eyes. "Indeed," he replied, his voice dripping with intrigue. "Do you think he would be controlled as easily as you think, Eleinag "
Eleina smiled and then nodded.
"Tower of Black Sun, built by our ancestor more than five hundred years ago, Alger, you know these things are better than me."
"I never saw a dark mage who, in search of a power, stayed alone for too long."
Alger nodded, but his face showed uncertainty as he added.
"Do you think that he would be invited to another dark mage organization?" In Red Copper Town, not considering the behemots of dark magic who have big dark cities under their control. There are still five organizations on par with us."
Eleina shook her head, and she darted her eyes up and down, feeling that her friend and cousin Alger were having problems with their organizations' confidence.
"I do not think something like that will happen."
"In the end, we are the first ones to come in contact with him, and humans, be they dark mage or light mage, all have an innate desire to get close to what they know."
Alger nodded and got up from his chair.
"You are right on that."
"I will be leaving for the time being to search where those two light mage had hidden the staff they had stolen."
"I will also contact Obsidian Keep City and Obsidian Keep to give them a report about the two mages from Secret Light who were in the Red Copper Town."
Eleina nodded and said nothing as she whispered.
"Skalain, you are an interesting guy. I would like to see what you are going to do in the future."
