บท 256: The Mages’ Gathering

Four days later.

"Good evening Sir, please present your invitation."

"Here you go." It was a rare sight that Benjamin looked so well kept, in a full suit with neatly brushed hair. It was as if time has turned back, and he was back to his aristocrat life, participating in that royal ball.

He carried a smile and took the invitation out of his front pocket and into the purser’s palm.

After they had settled down in the new place, they did not encounter any trouble. After all that humps and bumps in their journey, they finally had a stable environment where they could calm down to meditate and steadily grow. Some religious group was also assaulted by an underworld gang, and that made the City of Rayleigh unsafe, it was best that they did not get involved.

For the next few days, they did not leave home.

The four days went past like a blink of an eye and the date of the gathering on Benjamin’s invitation has finally arrived.
