Realm of Myths and Legends

others who may discover this child ’s whereabouts through means similar to mine, there is no need to be.
I have already erased all traces.
However, you must still use caution.
There are those who will not halt their investigation. ”

…

Several minutes passed by as Kryxelsia completed her examination of the young Trephasia.

”Can she be awakened? ” Izroth asked.

Kryxelsia remained silent for a bit before she answered, ”If you are asking if I am capable of forcing her awake, then the answer is yes.
However, there is no need to go to such extremes as her life is not in danger.
She will awaken herself when the next moon sets and the sun reclaims the skies.
Until then, I will stay with her.
You will have to pardon my intrusion. ”

”I see.
Then, my questions will have to wait a while longer.
You are a guest in my Mystical Realm Palace.
If you need anything, just say the word, and the main clerk, Opal, will assist you.
She will be just outside the door if you need her. ” Izroth said.

He then walked towards the exit and continued, ”With the Wiseman here, she could not be in better hands.
There are a few matters that I must attend to, so you will have to pardon my abrupt departure. ”

Kryxelsia gave a small nod and replied, ”Do what you must. ”

Izroth exited the room on the 5th floor and stepped into the corridor.

”Opal, the shop will be closed for the rest of the day.
For now, you will tend to our guest.
Make sure her needs are met. ” Izroth stated.

”Yes, Handler Izroth.
I will not disappoint you. ” Opal responded with a respectful bow and a smile on her face that could not hide her enthusiasm.
When Agate had alerted her to the presence of the Wiseman, Opal nearly fainted from shock! Who did not know of the famous Wiseman of Everpeak from the Proximus kingdom?! More than anything, Opal felt honored that she could serve such an esteemed guest!

’Now, since Worldly Skies and the Fireheart Apothecary Society have arrived, it ’s about time to call everyone over.
I have delayed the matter long enough.
It ’s time I start to move around a little. ’

…

A few moments ago, after Izroth left the room on the 5th floor…

A smile appeared on Kryxelsia ’s face as she looked down at the young Trephasia.
She gently brushed the back of her hand against the cheek of the sleeping child.

”It ’s been a long time, Arteria.
Have your memories of me already departed? ” Kryxelsia spoke in a soft voice.

But, she received no response from the sleeping child.

…

Later that day…

A gathering was taking place inside the conference room on the first floor of the Mystical Realm Palace.

”I ’m glad that everyone was about to make it on such short notice. ” Izroth stated as he swept his gaze across the players sat at the conference table.

Luna, Zi Yi, Halls, Guan Yu, Valentine—all of Izroth ’s regular party members were present.
But, that was not all who showed up.

Mirage, Azalea, Worldly Skies, Gu Chao, Qi Jiguang, Midnight, Omega—even Metronome was there!

”Heh, how would I dare sit still when my brother calls? ” Guan Yu stated.

He then continued, ”Though there ’s a lot of unfamiliar faces here. ”

”When you said my master was here, I thought you were having a discussion about magic and rushed over.
Now, I feel as though I ’ve been tricked. ” Valentine shook his head and said with a weak smile. 

”Is magic all you can think about? You truly deserve the name magic freak! ” Zi Yi scoffed.

”Though you have to admit, that kind of dedication is pretty admirable.
Still, I don ’t get all the interest in magic.
The frontlines are where all the fun takes place. ” Halls smirked.

”Well said, brother! ” Guan Yu cheered.

”You two dare to disrespect magic? Come, let this big brother teach you two a lesson! ” Valentine said.

”Eh? Why is that big sister calling herself big brother? ” Mirage questioned Luna, who was sitting next to her.

But, before Luna could even reply, Valentine answered, ”Man! I am a man, you know?! Wait—haven ’t we already met before? ”

”Man?! No way! But you ’re so pretty! How can you be a man? ” Mirage gasped as she completely ignored the latter part of Valentine ’s sentence.

”Ahahaha! Big bro Izroth, you never told me you kept such a lively crowd! I, Gu Chao, do not regret joining y- ” Gu Chao spoke; however, he bit his touch mid-sentence and winced from the pain as he covered his mouth.

”I warned you about trying to talk so fast, Gu Chao.
If you slowed your words, perhaps you would not bite your tongue as often.
Honestly, what a strange skill side-effect. ” Worldly Skies sighed.

”Is he going to be alright? ” Midnight asked as he furrowed his brows.

”He seems quite sturdy.
I ’m sure he ’ll be just fine. ” Omega burst into a fit of laughter when he saw that Gu Chao bit his tongue.

”Noisy… ” Azalea muttered to herself.
If it were not for her teacher requesting her presence here, she would have already taken her leave from such a crowded place!

”So many beauties gathered in one place.
It ’s a shame we have to discuss business. ” Metronome commented.

Izroth tapped the table twice as he held up the palm of his hand.
After doing so, everyone fell quiet as the conference room was suddenly filled with silence.

”We will get introductions out of the way soon, but first, everyone should be aware as to why I have called them here today, ” Izroth stated.

He then continued, ”Initially, I intended to wait another month or two; however, time continues to become a luxury that is seldom afforded these days. ”

Then, without wasting another moment, Izroth made his announcement, ”I plan to create a guild—one that stands above all others.
Who here is willing to follow me? ” Izroth said, however, he was met with silence as an expression of disbelief appeared on the face of almost everyone present.

Did they just hear right? Izroth, the same anomaly that the top guilds could not predict, wanted to start his own guild?!

If news of this ever left this room, it would cause a huge uproar! Something like this would undoubtedly upset the fragile balance of the top guilds!

However, everyone had the same question on their minds—why now?
