Chapter 1151
The next morning, Emery was woken up from his sound sleep by a piercing light. When he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a shiny, greenish spirit bird that had evidently entered his room through the open window. It was hovering on top of his laying body before it slowly dispersed into specks of light.
Immediately after, the symbol on his hand glowed as a panel emerged from it.
[Emery, how is your first day of return? Did you miss me already? Remember, don't you dare pursue a new girl without my permission! If you do so… ehheh… You can imagine what will happen when I find out. Anyway, I am currently following your advice. So, wish me good luck!]
Emery, who was still in a half-asleep state, subconsciously let out a faint smile when he read the message that was filled with the personality of that person. Magic truly was a wonderful thing. He wished he had a spell that could do a similar thing. Unfortunately, that was not the case.
After rubbing his eyes to wake himself up, Emery got off the bed and took a refreshing bath. He then put on new clothes, one of the many that were prepared by the Quintins before he walked out of the guesthouse.
"You are leaving already, Master Merlin?"
The one asking the question was Kastan, the head guard of the Quintins, who was coincidentally on his walk around the area. From the man, Emery found out Luna was apparently away for some business. Therefore, he proceeded to leave a message he would be going into the forbidden forest.
Upon hearing Emery's words, Kastan slightly bowed his head, "Of course, Master Merlin. I will make sure your message reaches the lady."
Emery wanted to say he would return tonight, but he quickly stopped himself as he was actually not sure about it. He could be held out by the whole crutin villagers because of Morgana, or even worse he might get locked inside the Khaos once again.
He frankly couldn't say anything was certain as anything literally could happen.
An hour later, Emery finally reached the outskirts of the forest.
Sitting on top of the horse and looking at the paths in front of him, Emery was trying to remember which of them would take him to the Felanion Village, as the last thing he wanted to happen was him getting lost inside the forest.
After a while, Emery finally chose the path, albeit hesitantly. Along the way, his mind was completely occupied. He was thinking of the best way to explain to the Crutins about his situation, without telling them about the Magic Academy's recall.
The closer he got to the village, the more worried he became.
The moment he reached the outskirts of the village, Emery suddenly saw three figures coming from the direction of the village, approaching him quickly. Looking at them, he did not need even a second glance to tell who they were.
"Brother Emery!! You are back?!"
A cute high-pitched voice was heard, coming from Glita, the youngest of the group, a white-haired little girl, whose hair was tied into twintails. The twins, Lelith and Lilith, were beside her, as they approached Emery. They were three of the five Fey sisters.
The little girl stopped in front of Emery, looked to the left, right and behind with a curious expression. She then asked, "Where is Sister Morgana?"
Realizing what Emery said was logical, Lilith quickly nodded her head, "Of course, brother."
The four of them then made their way to the village. Men, women and kids, everyone came out of their houses to welcome Emery. However, he only nodded his head at them as a response.
At the moment, Emery could not think about anything else than to talk about Morgana's situation to the High Priestess or Chief Brennus.
The Fey sisters took Emery to Chief Brennus' hut and, after waiting for a moment, he was called inside.
Emery knew it was his responsibility to tell the truth about what happened to Morgana. Hence, he immediately cut the chase after a simple pleasantry and narrated the entire story. He told him about the battle with the Crimson Fang, the fight with the old knights and the cart that took Morgana away.
Strangely, Throughout the time Emery talked, the old chief didn't say or ask anything. The silence the man showed only made Emery even more worried.
Emery was about to ask the chief when the man suddenly took a long sigh, causing him to quickly retract the words on the tip of his tongue.
"Actually Emery, normally I would not be worried about this matter, as the High Priestess is all-knowing. But the thing is, the High Priestess has been secluding herself in the shrine for a month now."
Hearing the revelation that the High Priestess wasn't present, Emery was stunned, "What's happening, chief?"
"That's the problem, Emery. I also don't know." answered Chief Brennus. "This has never happened before. In my 50 years as the village chief, this is the first time."
Things seemed to be more worrying for Emery.
"But don't worry, Emery. I will try and visit the High Priestess again. She did mention your name before, but no one knows where you were at that time. I am sure she would like to see you, if I tell her you are here."
"For now, I hope you return to your hut and wait for her call."
Emery nodded his head, "Yes, chief. I will. Thank you."
Not long after he returned to his hut, Emery realized there were people gathered outside looking for him. They were the four Fey sisters and also a few of the Akavi warriors. Among them, he could see Cavvi, the strongest among the warriors.
Looking at the inquisitive expression everyone had, Emery knew he could not hide this anymore. Thus, he told them about what had happened.
Emery could clearly see the sisters were very worried, especially Tyra, the oldest of them. However, it was Cavvi who could not accept the situation and became angry.
"Did you say this happened three months ago?! What the hell!! Where have you been in the last three months you bastard!!"
