Chapter 4243: Shock and Awe (Part 2)

"What?" King Meron jumped to his feet. "Are you telling me that there is no active Gate in the vicinity of Lustria County?"

Marchioness Distar had her private Warp Gate, but that had to remain a secret. The King’s question allowed the Royal Guard to include the report about the Distar private Gate without mentioning it.

"None at all, Your Majesty." The captain nodded.

"How is that possible?" Meron slammed his fist against the armrest of his throne. "What about Headmaster Distar?"

"I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but as I said, we’ve lost all communications. As for Lord Distar, he’s at the Black Griffon, and we’ve already notified him of the issue. He should be on his way any moment now."

"Your Majesty, please, allow Solus and my sister to move. I’ve got to leave immediately, and I’m going to need their help."

"Of course." A couple of emergency robes wrapped around the two women, freeing them from the arrays’ effects. "Are you going to use the Beast Gate Network? If so, you can take the Royal Guards with you."

"No. The last time that Night attacked Lutia, she did something similar and blocked even Faluel’s lair. I’m going to use my own means." Lith replied. "Kami, you look after the kids and never step away from them.

"Solus, Tista, Dragonspeed!" He Warped away before Meron could ask him any questions, bringing everyone outside the palace.

Deep into the Trawn Woods, at the same time.

"I’m so glad we didn’t go to Lutia." Selia inhaled the chilly air and the scent of the pine trees it carried, shivering with joy. "After days and days of chaos and noise, I need the silence."

"I want to go to Lutia and eat sweets!" Fenrir pouted. "I’m bored!"

"Shush, child. Let your mother relax." Protector said, and the young girl obeyed. "Me too, dear. There’s something about these woods that-"

Lith had installed the same alarms he used for his family in the armor of Lilia and Leran, so when the Awakened sealed the space around Zekell’s house, Protector noticed as well.

"Something happened to the kids! We have to go!" Ryman was no dimensional mage, so he opened a Warp Steps leading to Lith’s house.

It would allow him to reach a point from which he could see Lutia and bring Selia, Solkar, and Fenrir to a safe place.

"Stay here. I’ll take care of it." Yet he couldn’t.

He felt his missing children’s fear and anger through the bond the Skolls shared. In that moment, Protector knew that something terrible was happening and that he would never arrive in time to stop it.

City of Lutia, at the same time.

A single violet-cored Awakened had been tasked to take care of the Mage Association’s branch in Lutia. He had conjured six elemental-sealing arrays and overlapped them to perfection.

Fake mages couldn’t cast spells without world energy, and the six magical formations turned even the most powerful among them into a regular human.

"Like shooting fish in a barrel." Argat conjured a tier one Spirit Spell against anyone who dared to step out of the Association.

The lucky ones got back inside after suffering only minor wounds, while the unlucky ones fell to the ground, never to stand up.
