บท 58: Chapter 58 - Follow Us - Potential
At that time, something unexpected occurred. One of the bigger skeletons started talking. Not like humans, but still understandable.
The three mages exchanged startled glances as the deep, resonating voice of the skeleton reached their ears. The unexpectedness of the skeleton's speech and the message it conveyed sent a wave of curiosity and caution through their minds.
Ezekiel took a step forward, his voice filled with a mixture of intrigue and wariness. "Who is your master?" he asked, trying to maintain composure despite the unsettling situation.
The skeleton's hollow eye sockets seemed to fixate on Ezekiel as it responded in its slow, ethereal voice. "Master, I desire your presence," it said, each word punctuated by an otherworldly echo. "Come... with us... to see... Master."
Leyla's brow furrowed as she tried to decipher the meaning behind the skeleton's words. "Why does your master want to see us?" she questioned, her tone laced with curiosity and a hint of suspicion.
"Yeah, this is not good at all," Layla thought as she asked. She is no fool, and she knew that they were not in the best position right now.
The skeleton's bony frame shifted slightly, as if contemplating its response. "Master sees potential in you," it finally replied. "He wishes to offer an opportunity."
Of course, this was not the truth. The skeleton was talking about Skalain, and Skalain had no thought of these three; he didn't even know much about them other than that they existed and that they were the ones that destroyed t his skeleton.
Cardian, ever the cautious one, spoke up. "And what if we refuse?" he asked, his voice firm but tinged with a touch of defiance.
The skeleton's voice took on a chilling tone, sending a shiver down their spines. "Refusal... is not advised," it warned. "The master's reach extends far."
This time it was not a complete lie; it was true that Skalain had connections with The Tower Of Black Sun and Void Star, which is not a small power at all. Considering Cardian and others were students and new mages of The Tower Of Black Sun, it just makes the words of Skeleton even more true.
Ezekiel's mind raced, weighing the risks and potential rewards. The offer intrigued him, but he couldn't shake the feeling of unease. "Can we at least know the nature of this opportunity?" he pressed, his voice tinged with a mix of curiosity and caution.
The skeleton's response came as a low, rumbling chuckle that echoed through the forest. "All... will be revealed... in due time," it replied cryptically. "Follow... if you dare... the Master awaits."
The young magi stood in silence, contemplating their options. Yet the warning conveyed by the skeleton left a lingering sense of unease.
After a moment of deliberation, Ezekiel spoke with a mixture of resolve and curiosity. "We will come," he said, his voice steady. "Lead the way."
The words of Ezekiel were expected by Cardian and Layla; they both know that.
With a slow nod, the skeleton turned and began to move deeper into the forest, its bony companions following in its wake. The mages exchanged one last glance before cautiously following.
As they ventured further into the unknown, guided by the mysterious skeleton, the forest seemed to grow darker, and the air was heavy with anticipation. Little did they know the trials and revelations that awaited them as they stepped into the realm of the master who sought their presence.
