"Wait!"
Jessy tries to push the boulder away but it was no use. Edward joined in but it was too much work for him. Auoun joined in and managed to make the boulder more a little but failed.
"It seems that there is someone from the other side either also pushing the boulder or added more boulders to ensure that we're trapped in,"
"But who would do that to us?"
"Now that we're trapped in here, might as well look around and enjoy this historical site,"
Riche suggested in joy, as he was enjoying being trapped in here.
"I guess there's nothing to do right now except discovering,"
Raye agreed with Riche, shocking the Enigma party. As they were looking around, Will notices a reports of people that were summoned into this world. The reports were written in ancient Athena, allowing him to understand every words written in it.
Thirteenth of Pisces,
This mark the epoch of magic where we were able to summon human from another world. Our first was a success, we were able to summoned a cat from another world, it does not look much different from our world though
Will flipped through the reports, reading more of it.
Fourth of Aries,
It was a fail, we tried to summon a human from another world but it went wrong, we suspect that the spell was not strong enough which causes it to fail
Twentieth of Taurus,
It was a success! We finally were able to summon a human from another world, though they speak a language we don't understand. We tried communicating with it for days but everything seems to not go the way we expected
Seventh of Leo,
We manage to summoned a few more human from another world and some of them were from a place called 'Earth', we learned their language and communicate with them. We talked about their world and our world. We also told them about the Demon King and oddly they seem to be quite interested in that topic
Thirtieth of Virgo,
The human were able to use magic in our world, some were powerful so we decided to sent them to the Demon King. While they were excited to fight the Demon King at first saying they would make an impact in this 'fantasy world', they unfortunately didn't return
Will then remembered there was one time where a group of people came to defeat the Demon King but failed before even meeting him. Will admitted that they were strong and powerful but facing the Dark Sages they failed miserably.
Nineteenth of Capricorn,
The kingdoms has agreed to ban summoning, for it is forcing them to leave their home land and help us do our deed, it is true that some were begging to return, there were also some that were oddly enjoying this world, not knowing what truly lurks inside it
Will flipped through a few pages and it ended. All of the reports were mostly written about human from a place called 'Earth' then others that were summoned from a different world.
Riche flipped through a book of summoning spells. In the present time, summoning from another world are banned but summoning beings in this world isn't. Summoning from another worlds were random so they would not know what they would get. There was one page that caught Riche's attention. It was about a entity that were summoned in a world that they know nothing off. There is also a report stacked inside that page. Riche took it out and read it.
Fifteenth of Cancer,
We had summoned an entity we know nothing about from another world, it is not from 'Earth' or the other worlds that we know of that I can say for sure, this entity is somewhat similar to 'The Fog' found in the dune, we manage to seal it in this book before it could cause a rampage fortunately
The upper page of the book was ripped apart, only leaving the spell for summoning the entity. With no clear image of the entity, both parties could only imagine what it looked like. As Riche blew off the collection dust off the book, he touches the spell, swiping his right thumb on it.
Suddenly, Riche's eyes turned from tan to purple. He began speaking in the Rolken tribe language, reciting the spell on the page.
"_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_"*
The candles that were lit were slowly extinguishes one by one as Riche kept reciting the spell. The spell was long so before Riche could finish, the Everlight party and the Enigma party tries to stop Riche from reciting the spell. Though it was no use. Riche kept reciting and reciting, the spell that were many lines was about to reach to the end.
"Looks like we have no choice,"
Raye drew out his sword and tries to slice off Riche's hand. But by the time the blade touches the hands, a purple and green light emerges from the book, making Raye and Riche fall back. Riche finally snapped out of it but by the time he came to his senses, the book fell onto the ground as a dark red demonic like magic circle was casted above the table.The Everlight party and the Enigma party stepped back. Raye held his sword tightly, ready to face the entity that was about to emerge from the book. Amethia casted her staff so as Jessy while Edward and Auoun stood forward and shielding the both of parties.
A hand emerges from the magic circle. The arm was a black, small arm. As if the entity have not eaten anything for days. Another hand emerges from the magic circle, also revealing the same thing.
[Ah, I'm finally free]
A voice sounded in the den, more overly, it was from the magic circle above the book. The voice was different, as if something beyond their knowledge or this world could comprehend enters it.
[I have finally exited the damn book]
Once again, the voice sounded. Though this time, Everyone in the room started spitting out blood. Blood started flowing out of their ears and noses. Something powerful has entered this world. The voice was so powerful it pinned everyone on the ground.
[It's been a long time since I visited here, I wonder how is this place]
As the entity was about to fully emerge out of the magic circle, shadows formed above it and was shot at the entity. Shadows formed at the hands of the entity grabbing onto the table. It aimed and shot at the hands, making the entity releases them, forcing it to retreat back to the circle. A recitation was recited by the same person who casted the shadows. The one who wasn't affected too much by the voice of the entity. The Shadow Sage, Will Beuratt.
"_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_"
[What are you doing? Are you trying to seal me back? Not this time]
The entity reaches out his hand towards Will but was slashed by Raye.
"Stay....back..."
Raye spat out more blood. The symptoms seem to be getting worse and worse as the entity speaks. Will even had a nose bleed while reciting the spell.
Fire arrows casted above the entity, falling on it to prevent the entity from escaping the magic circle. More and more casted above the entity.
[Enough!]
The entity yells neutralize the fire spells. He then tries to escaping before the magic circle close up. Finally, he reveal his head, a black face and white long hair. The entity looks like it has not eaten for centuries up at this point. Dark red eyes glares at Raye, pressuring him from moving. He then tries to pressurize Will but all he can see is a group of shadows floating around where Will is standing.
"_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_!"
Will finally finish reciting the entire spell.
[No!]
The entity reaches out his hand and tries to grab onto something. He aimed for Will, trying to bring him into the circle but fortunately the magic circle close up before he could touch Will. When the magic circle closes up, it also slices off the entity's left arm from it, leaving the arm in their world.
Will wiped off the blood on his nose as he closed the book.
"W-what happened?"
Riche got up and dusted himself. He then helped Jessy up and so as Edward helped Mikana. Raye went and helped Amethia up while Al, Auoun and Fabio stood up by themselves.
"You were reciting a forbidden spell from the book!"
"It wasn't on purpose I swear! It was as if...I was possessed?"
"Possessed? Who could do such a thing? Only if it were the SUN Cult..."
Riche slide down and cover himself up with his arms. It was as if he was traumatized. Jessy and the Enigma party didn't say much seeing Riche's current state.
Suddenly, a loud rustle sound sounded from the entrance. The boulder blocking the entrance was pushed aside. The sun peep into the dark den, brightening it with natural light from the sun instead of the flame that brightened it for the whole night.
"Are you guys okay? How did you guys got yourself locked up in the den? There were many boulders blocking through entrance as if someone purposely locked you guys in here,"
"We're fine, most of us,"
Raye replied to the man that helped them remove the boulders at the entrance. There were a crowd gathered around the ancient summoning site, including the town chief of the very town they were in.
Edward and Fabio helped Riche out of the den. Upon seeing Riche, the man who removed the boulder got mad and tries to give Riche a scolding.
"You, I told you not to meddle with the ancient summoning site, you guys just don't listen to what we say-"
Before he could finish, Raye raises his hand, stopping the guy to continue further.
"Let him rest, he had been through much last night,"
The man went silent and took a few steps back. He then raises his head and realizes that both parties were injured.
"Just what happened....in there....?"
"We will explain everything to you, just leave the Enigma party alone and give them some rest,"
As the Everlight party were about to visit the chief's house, Will notice a feather of a dove right on the ground.
"Excuse me, do doves pass by here often?"
Will asked the crowd. The responses Will received were confusion.
"Doves? They rarely or don't fly past this region, why ask?"
"Nothing..."
Will looked at the feather and turned his head away. Then feather was then caught up by the wind and flew away into the forest.
*This aren't the actual language of the Rolken tribe language, just that the spell isn't in words
