"You still haven't answered my question. Do you need these materials for alchemy?" Shadow asked.
"Yes." Angor considered and nodded.
"Ah, ah, ah," Shadow said in a very pitiful tone, "Another person who is possessed."
Shadow's disdainful tone and pitiful expression made Angor very confused. This was the first time Angor met someone who knew about his alchemy skills since he became an alchemist.
Angor considered for a moment and said something he would never say before, "Actually, I'm pretty good at it."
Shadow didn't seem to believe him.
Seeing that Shadow didn't believe him, he didn't say anything else. Instead, he asked, "Is there a wizard market around here? I can go there to buy some materials. "
Shadow looked a bit disappointed. "There are only two Wizard Fairs in Fairy World, one in the north and one in the south. I actually just came back from a wizard market, but it's very far from here. If you want to go, you can follow the map. There are markings on it. "
"Far? How far is it? "Angor quickly asked.
"It's not on Gloom Continent. The nearest Wizard Fair is separated by an ocean and a continent." Shadow paused for a moment before he continued, "If you have a flying vehicle and enough energy, you can get there in two and a half months. If you don't … I suggest you not go. "
Two and a half months even with a flying vehicle? Angor's heart skipped a beat. "How long does it take to get to the tree hole in Fairy World?"
Shadow noticed Angor's embarrassment and chuckled. "It's a little further than the Wizard Fair. Maybe three or four months."
Three or four months even with a vehicle? Angor looked disappointed. He would never make it to the purification garden no matter what.
He quickly pulled himself together. It was fine if he couldn't go to the purification garden. Purification was just a bonus. It could make the Sorcerer's path a little smoother. Without purification, it would be the same as before. It would still be the same as before.
With this in mind, Angor decided to give up on the idea of going to Floating Mech City. "Where can I get the materials? These aren't rare materials. You said that there's a place called Silent Hill nearby. I should be able to exchange them with someone there, right? "
The shadow said, "Sure, but Silent Hill is thousands of miles away from here. Are you sure you want to go?"
"Go!" Without a means of transportation, it would take decades to leave Fairy Tale World. Therefore, it was an urgent matter to refine a walking vehicle.
Shadow took out a map, drew an "X" on it, and handed it to Angor.
"This is the map of Fairy World. I've marked the location of Silent Hill for you," Shadow said and took out his watch. It was 2: 38 am
Angor accepted the map and looked at it. There were seven continents in Fairy World, each of which belonged to its own territory. They were surrounded by endless oceans. He was currently on Gloom Continent, which was about the same size as Africa on Earth. The Netherworld Continent was ranked third among the seven continents of the fairytale world in terms of land area.
The exit of the fairytale world was located at the edge of another Crescent Continent. It was separated from the Gloom Continent by a vast ocean.
The more he looked at the map, the more depressed he felt.
Fairy World was only a subsidiary plane, but it was already so big. How big was Fey Continent, which was many times bigger than Fairy World? Even if he spent half a year to leave Fairy World, how long would it take for him to return to Brute Cavern? How long would it take for him to return to the Old Earth? Would he be able to return home in three years?
He didn't want to show too much emotion in front of outsiders, so he put the map away.
"Thank you." Angor thanked Shadow. He promised to give the map to Shadow, but it was free, so he still had to thank him verbally.
Shadow took out the clock and looked at it again. There were still 10 minutes until 3 am.
"You're not leaving?" Shadow felt a prickling sensation in his heart. He quickly added, "I think you should leave now."
After saying that, Darkshadow felt much better.
"Wait a moment, I still have a question to ask you." Angor didn't want to get involved, but he wanted to finish his question first. "How do I get to Darkivil after leaving Fairy World?"
"Darkivil?" It took Shadow a while to recall what the Blackdemon Empire was. "You mean the Blackdemon Empire in the core world?"
"Yes. Midnight Sovereign is the capital of Darkivil," Angor said. "I'm going there."
"You're an apprentice from Brute Cavern?" Shadow looked at Angor.
Brute Cavern was the largest wizard organization near Darkivil. Shadow waved a hand. "I'm not trying to find out where you're from. I'm just asking. It doesn't matter if you don't answer."
"Yes, I'm from Brute Cavern." Since Shadow already knew who he was, there was no need for him to hide it. Or rather, he never intended to hide his identity from the very beginning.
"So you're a talented apprentice from Brute Cavern. No wonder you're so good at illusions. Master Phantom is from Brute Cavern. " Shadow clicked his tongue and spoke to Angor, "If you want to go back to Brute Cavern from Fairy World, it'll take you too long to walk or use a vehicle. Even if you travel at full speed, you won't be able to return without at least eight to ten years. Unless — "
"Unless what?" He didn't have that much time to waste on traveling.
"Unless you use a teleportation array. Well, there's one in Silent Hill too. You just need enough magic crystals to use it." As soon as Shadow finished his words, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He cursed under his breath and quickly added, "Although many wizard organizations provide teleportation services, I don't recommend you to choose the teleportation circle. Apprentices aren't strong enough for long-distance teleportation. Unless you can find a wizard who's willing to protect you, or inject yourself with a defensive bloodline, you'll easily disintegrate during teleportation. "
Shadow heaved a long sigh after he finished explaining the drawbacks of the teleportation matrix. This damned Kurna contract was truly poisonous! He just wanted to hide the consequences of using a teleportation array, and now he was being punished.
That seat … Shadow's heart ached again when he thought about Angor's seat.
"There's a teleportation array in Silent Hill?" Angor's eyes brightened.
Shadow suppressed his discomfort and nodded. "Yes. But there's no teleportation array leading to Brute Cavern. As I said, apprentices can't handle long-distance teleportation. "
"Is there a teleportation array leading to Floating Mech City?"
"Floating Mech City?" Shadow showed a strange expression. "Why would you want to go to Floating Mech City?"
"Is there?"
Shadow nodded. "Yes. Floating Mech City is a neutral wizard organization and has a good relationship with many other wizard organizations. But your body can't handle long-distance teleportation. "
"I'm an alchemist. I can make defensive armors, or … trade for a defensive bloodline in Silent Hill."
Sunders once told him that the best bloodline for Angor was the nightmare monster's bloodline and that he should not transplant any random bloodline. But there were priorities, and he couldn't spend decades on the road.
"Bloodlines aren't cheap. Do you really think you can get one?"
"I'm an alchemist. At least I don't need money right now," Angor emphasized.
"Alright, even if you can get it, do you think you'll succeed in injecting the bloodline?" "Fine, I'll stop teasing you. I just want to know why you want to go to Floating Mech City. Floating Mech City doesn't have a portal to Brute Cavern. "
"Why do you care so much about where I'm going?"
Shadow shrugged. "I don't care. I'm asking because I'm from Floating Mech City."
Shadow's answer surprised Angor. He didn't expect that the man in front of him was from Floating Mech City after all the trouble he went through.
Before Angor could reply, the clock in Shadow's hand suddenly made a clicking sound.
The hands turned to 3 a.m. sharp.
This is …
He was still trying to figure out where the laughter came from when he sensed danger. A numb and itchy feeling spread from his scalp to his spine, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
"Argh!" Angor screamed in pain.
Below his heart, a small door with a layer of bloody skin was slowly pushed open.
Then three Krakoks walked out of the door with giggles on their faces.
As the door closed, blood began to pour out from the wound on Angor's chest. The pain and blood loss caused Angor to fall into a dark and sweet vortex before he could react.
Shadow smiled when he saw Angor lying on the ground. "You're the one who sat there. I warned you to leave, but you didn't. Don't blame me. "
Every night, at three o 'clock in the morning, the Krakoks would open the door from that spot. If there were people sitting there, they would open the door on time.
Opening a door from inside someone's body … Interesting.
Looking at Mask, who was lying on the ground and bleeding profusely, Shadow covered his face and laughed out loud. What Kurna Contract? Didn't I break it in the end?!
No matter how perfect the contract was, it couldn't stop someone who asked for it!
Toby immediately stood up when he saw Angor lying on the ground. Without a doubt, the bird could understand human language. It knew that Shadow was the one who caused his young master to fall.
Toby quickly took out some gauze from Snowy Feather and tried to bandage the wound.
"Huh? Where did you get that? " Shadow looked at Toby's movements, and his eyes flashed with doubt. Could it be that this bird has a spatial tool?
