764 A Weretiger Knocked Him Out
I need to make a decision here. Should I bring this agent out of this magicless area from the closest location to where we can start using magic, or we should go to the opposite side of it?
If we go to the closest place here, there’s a chance that we might get found out by someone. Or maybe something. I don’t know yet about who this agent was fighting before.
Seeing from his injuries, most of them were from blunt object and few scratches from sharp object. My guess is the opponent was a monster. But if there’s a mage who wanted to test his or her own strength on the agent by hitting him and slashing a weapon at him, then it’s a human. But it could also be a monster.
Monsters would be easier to handle. We can just kill them. Even if they are contracted monsters to a tamer and the tamer will notice that their monsters were killed, we can just disguise ourselves as a monster.
But if the enemy is human, this person might retreat as soon as whoever it is noticed our presence.
What if we try to escape to the center of this circle of magicless area to where the city is, and someone is blocking us? Even if they are not blocking us, as soon as they notice our presences, they could quickly retreat or fire a signal to the sky to alert the others.
If it’s someone else, they would be killed. But if it’s me, I would kill them instead. And if they realize that they are weaker than me too soon, they will retreat and alert the others.
I guess my only option is by going to the opposite side. It’s much safer to go there.
For Ray, carrying three people on his back is easy. And we left the magicless after a while.
.....
I instantly opened a portal back to Cassau. Back home where Kayla is.
When I enter the portal, everyone is in the dining room. Including the nine master level mages who are being introduced to the kids since one of them is in Varadis. Seems like they can get along with kids quickly. Or maybe because they haven’t met a kid for a hundred years.
“Kayla, heal him,” I said after I cleaned a table for the agent to lay on.
“Who is he?” one of the nine master level mages asked.
“An agent who was supposed to be investigating the city in the center of the magicless area. I found him injured and unconscious in the village you told me about,” I said.
Kayla then healed the agent. While someone is watching her curiously. He’s someone who has reached master level in his healing element. A master level healer.
“Oh, that is quick. So with magic control, you can heal someone faster. And if you learn about human’s body, you can just focus on the injury alone instead of healing his whole body. It’s faster and more efficient. Though for me, healing everyone in an instant is faster. But if it’s to heal a single individual, I guess this is the best choice to do it,” he said.
“That’s right. Though I can’t regenerate missing limb like a master level mage yet,” Kayla said.
“That’s true. I can only do it after I reached master level in my healing element. But even then, it needs me to use magic on the patient for weeks just to regenerate a single thumb. But if I learned magic control, I think it can be done faster,” he said.
So it’s true that a master level mage can regenerate lost limbs. But it needs weeks for a single thumb? I guess I will continue keeping my limbs intact.
“What about death? Can a healer revive the dead?” Angela asked curiously.
“Obviously no. If you are dead, then there’s nothing we can do. That’s it,” the master level healer said.
“What about consciousness? Can you wake him up with healing magic?” I asked after seeing that Kayla has finished with the treatment.
“No. In the end, healing magic is only for healing. We just need to wait until he wakes up,” he said.
But I don’t want to wait. Let’s quickly wake him up then.
“WAKE UP!”
I shouted while also pinching his arm. With the pain and the shout, he should be awake soon.
“AAAAAH! I’m awake! Where is this?”
Yup. Pain is the simplest way to wake someone up.
“I found you in an abandoned village in the magicless area. Covered with injuries. Tell me what happened.”
He then quickly checked the surrounding. Other than the nine people he doesn’t know, he recognize us all. Seeing that I can speak about it in front of the nine people, he realized that they are not enemies.
“Can you bring me to His Majesty? I’ll say what I’ve seen there,” he said.
I have texted Albert that an agent that was sent to investigate was injured. It was back when Kayla was healing the agent.
And just as the agent said that, my phone rung. Albert is calling me.
“What happened to him?” Albert asked.
“He’s awake now. I’m bringing him to you right away. He said that he’s going to talk in your presence,” I said.
“Okay. Bring him in.”
With Albert’s permission, I opened a portal to his location. I guess now I don’t need Sonia to contact the others before I opened a portal to their location.
Not just me and the agent entering. Everyone also entered including the curious nine master level mages.
There, the agent told us what happened.
They were being careful. But in the end, they are still newly promoted expert level mages. They didn’t expect to encounter a master level mage there.
Of course they did act as planned. Pretending that they were hunters doing a request by a noble. And it worked. At least the agent thought so.
They told the master level mage that they were being chased by a monster in the magicless area.
The master level mage was suspicious at first. Especially seeing two hunters acting polite since hunters are usually rough people. But the two just told him that seeing someone walking around casually near the magicless area, that man shouldn’t be anything normal.
So the man brought them to the city. At least pretended to.
All of a sudden, a monster came and attacked them. Only the agents. Not the master level mage.
The two tried to kill the monster while the master level mage just watching. He might be a tamer.
The monster was a weretiger. Like a werewolf, but this time a tiger. I guess that’s how he got the bruises and scratches.
Hearing the enemy is a weretiger, Shelia became interested with the story. As for me, I’m curious to see if that weretiger is willing to join the cult or being forced.
I’m interested if there are a tribe of weretigers that can possibly join us in the fight. But I won’t expect too much of it.
Anyway, one of the agent got knocked out by the weretiger. This guy tried to save him, but the weretiger was too strong. So he chose to run away. Hoping that the fainted agent would wake up and continue with the mission alone while he’s distracting the weretiger.
And that’s how he ended up in that place. Seeing how the injures were bad but not life-threatening, that weretiger must have played with him with no intention to kill him.
“So, how did you figure out that he’s a master level mage?” Albert asked.
“He said it himself. And he was too calm when we detected his presences. I assume that’s because he noticed us beforehand,” he said.
The weretiger didn’t destroy the magic items in the agent’s body. Like the phone, Sonia’s soil, or Blobby.
“What about the Blobby?” Albert asked me.

“Hmm... I can connect to my clones over there. So we can assume that they don’t know about m clones,” Victoria said.
“Once he wakes up and noticed that we are separated, he should contact me or His Majesty. But I haven’t received any text from him,” the agent said.
That means that he might still be unconscious. Or his phone is in someone’s hand.
The agent then tried to call the other agent. But no one picked it up.
“What will you do when the phone was ringing while it’s in someone else’s hand?” I asked the agent.
“There shouldn’t be any problem. I made the phone so they won’t ring or even vibrate if someone else other than the registered owner is holding it. And the agent must have set it to silent mode since he’s on a mission,” Marie said.
Then it’s still safe at least.
“Well, I guess it’s about time I investigate it myself, right? I’ll stop checking on the magicless area and go to the city then. After two hours of nap. If the agent contacted you before I leave, tell me,” I said.
Before, it was a cat-man. Now, it’s a weretiger. Maybe next is lion.
Shelia can’t wait to go there, so she asked my permission to go there by herself. It’s only a few hours of run for her from Cassau. But I still lent her Ray so she can get there sooner.
By the way, when my familiar is inside the magicless area, I won’t be able to summon them to my location. I can’t even open a portal there. So I told her to be careful since I can’t save her when she’s inside.
Also, when my familiars is inside the magicless area, although I felt that the connection between us is lost, they are still my familiars. So I can’t make a contract with another monster while they are still alive. And I will know if they die since the contract will be broken. Though it’s good that I can know that without having my familiars died.
