"You need to work hard so that your future soldiers will obey your orders." Medisa got a brown leather scroll and threw it to Juventus. "Take it. Read it carefully."
"Ha, thanks." Juventus caught the scroll in a way that looked like he was catching a precious treasure.
Angele stood beside Juventus and peeked at the scroll to see the contents, but the only thing he saw was a strange poem.
"What do you think? We can share it. I have always thought only poems and arias could represent the emotions of life." Juventus looked satisfied.
"I'll pass." Angele shook his head; it caught him off guard. "I don't understand why you have to cut a complete sentence into several parts.
Angele remembered that he still had several other questions and was about to ask.
"Oh! No!" Suddenly, a high-pitched male voice came from the table.
A piece of leather paper stood up on Medisa's table. Its edges had transformed into two short legs, and it was trying to escape.
Pa!
Medisa caught the leather scroll and pulled it back to the table and continued writing.
"No! You can't stain my beautiful body. I'm not an adult yet! God! Oh! Oh! Oh!" the paper started moaning as Medisa kept writing. The scene was quite disturbing.
"Damn it, Medisa! Do you really think your wig is large enough for your bald head! You shouldn't use me to draw on this guy," the black quill in Medisa's hand had also started talking.
"Listen to it! Listen! This guy is moaning, and it's gross! Do you know how painful this is? Every time, every time! I can't stand this guy's voice. I'm a high-quality quill with a very long history! Can't you find a normal paper to write on? I suggest that you break this guy to pieces and use it to wipe your butt!" the quill was surprisingly mean to the paper.
Medisa sighed but did not say anything.
Juventus chuckled and looked at the old man, "When did they become fairies?"
Medisa was not concerned about the argument between the quill and the leather paper. He raised his head and said, "Several days ago. I thought I could handle it, but…"
Angele was speechless. "What's going on? Fairies?" He wondered.
"This place is like… a rift between the Wizard World and the Fairy Realm. Sometimes, objects become sentient due to the mysterious power of the Fairy Realm, like the biscuits and bread rolls you had for lunch. Anything that is turned into living beings can be referred as fairies. That's why the Fairy Realm is powerful. They don't need to reproduce because fairies are everywhere, and they can be anything," Medisa sighed when he finished explaining.
"Seriously? That's the Fairy Realm?"
The noise made by the quill and the paper was getting louder.
Juventus exchanged eye contact with Angele. "All right, let's go. Medisa can handle this."
"All right." Angele finally understood why the Fairy Realm was feared by the wizards.
He left the room with Juventus and returned to the hall through the wooden staircase.
The guard by the door bowed to the two wizards and disappeared after turning into a ball of black smoke.
Angele glanced at the door drawn by the guard, which had already disappeared. What was left was the normal surface of the wall.
"Don't be surprised. You'll get used it to sooner or later as long as you live here." Juventus shrugged. "Let's go, I'll introduce you to a… cute female friend. You know, there's always a cute female student around a legendary white-bearded teacher, right? That's what they often wrote in novels."
"Is that so?" Angele was not sure how he should communicate with Juventus.
They quickly went across the hall and arrived at a small palace that had a fountain in the middle.
The fountain's green water was clean. There was a window on the roof where the golden sunlight came from.
A beautiful girl in a white dress was standing beside the fountain, looking upset. Her long, black hair was draped over her shoulder and her face was neat and pretty. But the most eye-catching thing was her light-green eyes.
"Damn it! If … that'll become the biggest shame of my whole life!"
Angele and Juventus heard the girl cursing while they were still walking to the fountain. The girl was cursing and washing something in the fountain.
"Hey! Dina, what are you doing?" Juventus loved to see others suffering.
He stepped forward and approached the girl, "Congratulations! I heard that your underwear turned into fairies."
"Juventus! What the hell! Why are you even here?" The girl turned her head around and became flustered. She quickly hid the thing she was washing behind her back.
"All right, let me introduce, this is our new friend, a student of our teacher, Angele," Juventus pointed at Angele.
He then turned around and introduced the girl to Angele. "This is the youngest student our teacher has, Dina. I hope you'll get along with each other."
Dina nodded at Angele unwillingly, "Greetings, nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you, too." Angele's brow furrowed when he saw what was happening. "I'm sorry, but I think I should let you know that…" He pointed at Dina's legs.
Dina's short dress could barely cover her knees.
A white panty was hanging on the girl's legs. It had short, white arms and a mouth and a pair of eyes on its front side. It was trying to climb down to flee.
"Enough! That's enough! I can't take this no more!" the panty was crying as it climbed down, "Dina, you devil! The last time you took a shower was 10 hours and 32 minutes ago. I don't want to be your panty anymore. It's not like you'll die without a panty anyway, and… the wind will probably make you feel good!"
Silence. Dead silence. The three had never expected something like this to happen.
Dina's face was burning, and there were tears in her eyes. The girl suddenly opened her mouth and screamed before Angele or Juventus could say anything.
"AH!"
"Move…" Juventus and Angele quickly left the palace.
They could still hear Dina screaming even when they were more than ten meters away from the palace.
"Don't worry, you can talk to her later. This is a bit… awkward…" Juventus sighed, "Anyway, what do you plan to do with your magic circle inheritance set? Do you want to set it up here?"
Angele already had something in mind.
"I'll set it up in the energy pool?"
He thought about it on the way here.
There was no place that was absolutely safe in the main world. If he built it in the ruin under the volcano, it would be too hard for him to explain the situation to Vivian.
And building the circle set in the Nightmare Realm would be too risky. Like, what if the power could not be transferred to the main world? And the place was way too dangerous.
Building the circle set in the headquarters of Dark Wizard Tower was the best choice.
Dark Wizard Tower already had suggested that he should build the circle set by the energy pool. The energy pool could help him transfer the power since the place was safe. It was what the organization promised him.
Angele had thought for a long time, but he still decided to set up the circle by the energy pool.
The inheritor's magic circle set was the best energy buff tool he could get but he doubted if the circle set would help him after he found the way to activate his true form in the main world.
"Yeah, the energy pool," Angele repeated the location.
"All right, I'll take you there." Juventus knew that Angele already made up his mind and he did not say anything else.
Juventus told Angele more about the fairies while leading him to the energy pool.
They left the hall, walked over a wooden bridge, and entered a tall tower that looked like the trunk of a tree. This tree seemed to be a branch of the main tree.
The main hall of the branch was dark. Monster-looking, black statues could be seen guarding the place.
The black statues looked terrifying and seemed to look real. Their eyes were glowing rubies embedded in them and were the source of light in the hall.
In front of them was another thick square stone gate with a black dragon head engraved on the surface. The dragon closed its eyes tightly, and there was yellow smoke being released out of its nostrils.
Juventus pressed on the dragon's head and closed his eyes for several seconds.
Bam!
The door opened from the middle of the dragon's head.
They finally entered the hall where the energy pools were located.
The inside was a spacious round hall that contained countless glowing green pools, which covered the whole ground.
The pools had varying shapes: round, egg-shaped, rectangular, irregularly shaped, and tear-shaped. All of those were the energy pools and their glows were brightening up the dark hall.
