章節 50: CHAPTER 49 TRUE REASONS

While Eros was with Seath battling in the arena, A big thing happened to the other friends in the east district.

[An Hour ago]

Sophia and the others reached the island and prepared themselves to descend the ship. After docking it in the port, they started descending from the ship. When they got out from the ship, Sophia said to Saydon:

" Saydon can you please protect us while I make the ship go away".

Saydon didn't understand what she meant and was puzzled but he still nodded and followed her orders. After all, no matter what, she is someone who has a big background.

After that Sophia went and suddenly a thing appeared in her hand. It was a blue cube with a red gem on the upper face. Suddenly, When Sophia pointed the cube towards the ship, the ship then started moving and then went out of the dock.

Everyone was shocked except Sophia who sighed and then she turned to them and gave them a smiled and said:

" Well, we can move now, The ship is safe. When we leave this island, I will call her again".

Liza who has her eyes shining as she runs to Sophia and said:

" Sister Sophia what was that just now, you were able to move the ship without being inside. This ability is truly awesome".

Sophia then smiled and said:

" Let's start walking. I will tell you in the way".

Everyone started moving and while moving they waited for Sophia to explain herself. She then looked at the port and then said:

" You see, Thanks to the mana stone, my ship can sail in the sea with a speed even more than normal ships and also fly in the air. My ship also comes with more options such a this. the cube that I used earlier is made with mana stones. The gem that is put inside is a special gem called a spiritual gem. It can absorb the spiritual energy of the user so he can create a link with the spiritual gem in the ship".

Everybody then understood the function of the cube. Shira who was listening looked at Sophia and said:

"So thanks to the link between both spiritual gems created by the spiritual energy, you can control the whole ship. Still, this doesn't explain how you can control the ship because it moves thanks to mana".

When Sophia heard that she was a little surprised at how Shira understood the mechanism. She then continued saying:

" As shira said with only the gem you can't control the ship as the spiritual energy only links the gems. This where comes the use of the cube. Thanks to the cube, the WM inside will be transferred through the link and it immediately activates a formation that will make it move without me being in the ship. I use my spiritual energy to link with the cube which links me with the ship".

Everyone then understood how it worked and suddenly Starfire said:

"If you could make it go away then why did you told Eros and Seath to stay on the ship to protect it".

Lina: " If you could do that from the beginning then that means you wanted Eros to go with Seath from the beginning right, Sister Sophia??".

Everyone looked at Lina with a shocked look as they didn't even think about this possibility yet this little girl was able to see that. They all turned to Sophia waiting for her to answer them.

Sophia: " How did you see through that Lina??".

Lina: "From the beginning that's why I didn't stop brother Eros".

Sophia: " You're really intelligent and your Wisdom is way above your age. It's true, I wanted Eros and Seath to leave".

Everybody was shocked because even if they knew the truth they still couldn't understand why she did that. She continued:

"I did that because I wanted to explore the city without them. Their powers will drag us more than help us and we all know that they will bring us problems the moment our feet land on this island".

Saydon: "I must say that all of this is right. These two will go on a rampage the moment anyone provokes them".

[ AN: Hey, Eros is the Sin of pride. How can he be provoked by.... sigh, you're right?].

Sophia: " With them away from us. They will be the perfect distraction so we can do our job and also find Saifon sister easily. I provoked Eros by ordering him and by that I was sure that he would leave. Seath will go because he's only interested in Eros and so we will be fine".

[AN: Ahhmm, don't misunderstand Seath isn't gay].

Everyone then understood the true reason as they said all Ahhhh in their mind. Finally, Sophia said:

"As for protection, This island has only powers at the first stage of the emperor warrior at max so we can easily beat them with Aquilla and so they only drag us down".

Everyone then nodded except for Lina who continued looking at Sophia. She then suddenly said to her:

" Didn't you think about Korino being here or him bringing some other star with him as reinforcements".

When Sophia heard that she felt that she was just being underestimated by a little girl. She humphed and then said to her:

"Korino will be here but with Eros in the city, he will try to hide. As for bringing back up its impossible because it's been just 2 days since we moved. It will take some time to bring a higher star to help him".

Finally, Lina sighed and then started walking as she said:

"Then, why can I feel doubt in your heart thanks to my ability".

Sophia was frozen by what Lina said but she shook her head and said in her mind

( I can't be wrong. They can't bring back-up this fast. I will be sure to prove her wrong).

As they continued walking towards the port entrance, Lisa kept watching the whole port and then she said:

" Why do I feel like there is nobody here. after all, We're still in daytime work and not even a fisher is here".

Everybody also noticed that there is nobody in the port. Saydon who saw that said:

"It seems that something strange happened and that made the fishers and all the guards and workers leave the port".

Shira: " It seems that they left everything in the port and just went away".

Sophia who saw that felt something was suspicious and said:

"It doesn't matter because the moment we leave the port we will enter the city and we can blend with people".

They walked till they reached the entrance and then something huge was waiting for them. Soldiers were everywhere blocking the whole entrance. There was about a 1000 man waiting for them.

Most of them were just at the apprentice warrior level. only about 15 people were in the master warrior stage. Sophia then looked at the man that was in the front who was with the highest level. He then started saying:

" Miss, can you please come with us. His Highness the second prince wants to meet you so you can talk a little".

The man was none other than the guard captain of the port. His mission was to bring Sophia and everybody to the city lord residence where the prince was staying.

Sophia smiled and said to him:

"And if we don't come??".

The captain smiled and said :

"Then I will have to bring you by force".

Everyone looked at him while saying that. Immediately The first one to laugh is Liza as she said:

" Hhhhhhhh, He said that he will bring us by force, This is so funny. Sister Shira, please just kick him so nobody can recognize him anymore".

Everyone from the bunch started laughing and then sighed. The guards didn't understand everything. Sophia then smiled and said:

" Let's start then the battle".

Aquila immediately got out and started flying towards the guards so he can create a way. Everybody started running toward them so they can finish the guards and go to the city.

What they didn't know was that there was someone observing them. Twi shadows were above in the sky seeing the battle from up in the sky.

They were wearing black capes so their faces can't be seen. One of them said:

"It seems that Eros isn't with them and also that wolf also isn't with them. It seems I will be enough to deal with them without your help".

Although his face couldn't be seen, the creepy smile was as shining in his face. the other person who just looked at them and smiled coldly to them as he said:

"This will be intresting".
