Magic Shop System

Kadyn walked on a silent road, as the moon strolled beyond the trees and clouds. He put his hands into his coat pockets as the icy wind blew on his face. He trod for around ten minutes before he reached his destination.

He looked at the silent and dark house and sighed deeply. Then his gaze moved towards another house, and it was also as dead as the haunted lighthouse beside the sea. Kadyn frowned, but then he moved in another direction.

It took another ten minutes before he arrived in front of a large building, the lights illuminated the area, and a few guards were standing at the entrance. As soon as Kadyn walked out of the fog, he attracted their vigilant gazes.

And before any of them could speak, he said. "I'm here to meet Elder Jyn. Can you…"

"Who are you?" Interrupted one of the guards.

"My name is Kadyn," he said. "Can you, please, inform Elder Jyn or Potioneer Yel?"

The guards looked at each other in dismay; they didn't know what to do. If this person wasn't someone important, and if they interrupted the good night sleep of the two elders, they would surely be punished.

The guard captain thought for a moment and said. "Please come back in the morning. The two elders are sleeping and they won't be happy if we were to disturb them at this time."

It was one of the reasons behind his refusal, the main reason was that Kadyn appeared suspecious, what if he had an ulterior motive. They would have to pay the price for their negligence. Kadyn clearly knew what they were thinking. But he had no time to waste on them. He frowned and said. "I won't be in Avibria City in the morning. So I need to meet either of them now."

"Sir, don't make things hard for us. Please leave," said the captain as he gestured towards his companions who unsheathed their weapons one by one.

Kadyn sighed when he saw this, though he didn't blame them, after all, it was their job. But he didn't have time to waste. Just as the guard captain was about to order his people to send him away, Kadyn vanished.

"Be careful!" Shouted the captain, but as his voice sounded a few thuds echoed. The captain shivered as he turned around. His companions were lying on the ground, unconscious. Though alive, but incapable of fighting, or even moving. He was all alone now, and he knew that he stood no chance in a fight against Kadyn after he displayed his means.

"Wh-what do you want?" His voice trembled as he looked at Kadyn's nonchalant expression.

"You know what I want," Kadyn said, "do you want to inform them, or should I do it myself?"

"I-I will do it," said the man and then he rushed into the building.

After ten minutes later a sound of footsteps came from inside the building. Kadyn looked at the

arrivers, and finally, a smile appeared on his face. "Long time no see, Elder Jyn."

The old man was stunned when he saw him. It was only when Kadyn spoke did he come back to his senses. He opened his mouth a few times but no word was spoken. Elder Jyn shook his head and finally said. "Come inside."

"Ah, these guards," Kadyn looked a little apologetic when he glanced at unconscious people on the ground.

"Don't worry about them," Elder Jyn said, then he turned towards the guard captain and told him in a stern voice. "Take care of them."

"Yes, Elder Jyn," the captain replied. He looked at Kadyn curiously; he never saw Elder Jyn talking to anyone with such a polite gesture. It was the first, and he doubted that there would be a second time, considering how arrogant Elder Jyn usually was.

Kadyn walked into the building with the old man and asked. "Did something new happen after we left?"

"New?" Elder Jyn glanced at him, and as he entered a well-furnished room, he sat on a couch and gestured towards Kadyn. "Come sit, and we'll talk about the new things that happened recently."

Elder Jynn let the servant put the tray of teacups and snacks on the table and gestured to him to leave. Then he looked at Kadyn and said, "The Magic Alliance has almost fallen."

"Fallen?" Kadyn was startled, he sat straight and peered at Elder Jyn. "What do you mean?"

The old man sighed and began to explain. "It is the vampires," he paused as he sipped tea and continued. "Do you know about their attack on the Capital Orddono?"

"Yeah," Kadyn nodded, "though I don't know the result of the attack."

"They murdered the king and his every kin," said Elder Jyn with a long, deep sigh. "Though I heard rumors that Princess Nefia and her maid vanished, and no one knows their whereabouts."

Kadyn looked at the old man in front of him with wide eyes, his expression frozen. He never thought that utterly powerful figure fighting in the sky with the vampire woman would die in her hands. At that time no one had the upper hand, and it seemed that the battle would end in a draw. Who would have thought the king would die battling? 

'How would I tell such news to Nefia?' Kadyn sighed.

He looked at Elder Jyn and said. "How did the king die?"

"He was surrounded by more than five rank 3 mages," Elder Jyn looked at Kadyn as he said. "Do you think he could have escaped in such a situation?"

"Five?" Kadyn's heart trembled, but then he frowned. "But I saw a single woman attacking the king at that time."

"It was a trap," he replied and went on. "The woman was there just to tire him up, and when he became weak after fighting that woman, the other four surrounded him and in the end, the king was killed brutally."

"If they had attacked together there was a chance that the king would escape without fighting, so they used such a strategy, huh?"

"Indeed," Elder Jynn nodded and turned to him. "After killing the king they didn't leave the Alliance like usual, they captured the entire Shado Kingdom," he looked at Kadyn and proceeded. "But they didn't stop there either; in just a short ten days the whole Magic Alliance fell."

Kadyn's eyes went wide as soon as he heard this.. He was having a hard time believing it.
