Ch 13

After the duo recovered somewhat, the girl is the first to respond.

"I apologize for the late introduction, You can call me Ms. White and this is Mr. Cyan. These are our aliases as you can tell. However, this is as far as we can go to establish trust between us in this crucial time. We belong to a secret organization like the mage's association "

Ms. White is a fairly tall white lady with blonde hair and green eyes. She has the body of an Onee-san archetype. While Mr. Cyan is a handsome Ikemem with blue hair and silver eyes, he's a fit adult.

"I'm Cael and this is Daphne. I'm a magus from Clock Tower"

"Daphne, an Alchemy apprentice from clock tower"

Daphne's in bad mood due to her fiance's betrayal and death.

"Very well, do you have any ideas on how to deal with our situation"

Cael pretended he didn't know anything. The fact that they use code names and they belong to a secret organization is enough for him to understand that they didn't come with the same goal as him or Daphne.

The duo knows something about this place they don't.

However, before the duo can answer. Daphne interrupted.

"I would like to ask something. Didn't you say that your mystic code destroys magic circuits? Then what happened back there?"

"Only a Retard tells their capabilities in front of an enemy. Why would I give an advantage to him? It's just a lie to scare him"

Daphne just said "Oh" and held her head down in shame.

"Then, what happened back then?"

Ms. White asked expectantly.

"That's ...a mystery" Cael however didn't answer her.

He felt its insulting to even explain it. All of the members here witnessed that even when the bullet hit him, the damage is reflected on Zacrius. It's so obvious. .

"Alright, let's get back to the topic on hand. Since the matter already escalated, I will share some information but you must help me defeat the enemy after I shared the information"

Ms. White didn't bother with Cael, after all, everyone has their secrets.

Daphne didn't know why they asked but replied "It's not like we have a choice"

"Okay then, this whole event and this place is a 'convergence point'. This will either destroy this world or alter this world for good. Our goal is to destroy the eye of a convergence point, for now, we sensed an unknown powerful spirit, it is our enemy. If we destroy it. There won't be a convergence point any longer"

Cael understood a lot from this information 'So, Chaldea or an earlier version of it is under development. It might be even those magus who eats gods' flesh to enact magecraft. I don't remember much about them but they also won't let anything 'Godly' slip by into this world. Since there is a potential 'God' here, this duo must belong to them. Only these groups can have information on something like this Or they might be related to an entirely different group that 'protects' humanity'

"I don't care about all that, If we destroy this 'enemy'. Can we get out of here?" Daphne didn't care much about it. All she wants is to get the hell out of here.

"I agree with Daphne If it means that we can get out of here. I will help you" Cael is already creating many contingencies after knowing about marble phantasm-like ability.

"We are inside the enemy's reality marble. If we kill the spirit that deployed this reality marble. We can get out of here" Ms. White explained. Hearing it, Cael felt disappointed.

He already knew that information.

"Do you have a way to kill it?"

Hearing Daphne's question, Mr. Cyan shook his head in disappointment.

"Sadly, No. The only way to kill it is to do a ritual. Our members are already dead. So, the ritual can't be done. The only method I can think of is sealing it which we can but its easier said than done"

"Are you sure it's a spirit?" Cael wanted to confirm something.

"Yes, It's a being made with madness at its core. Its abilities are mind related and heavily damage our soul if we are not careful"

As much as Cael doesn't want to reveal his secrets, he has no choice. He decided to share his abilities to escape from this place.

"Very well, I have a plan. I have a mystic code that can trap it into an object however, I need to make sure it won't move for three seconds and I'm not sure it can even hold the being for a long time. All I have are water-related spells and I don't know If I can do much with them"

Cael didn't want to use it at all if there is a choice but the mystic code is the last clue his 'Cube of jambala' divined.

After all, he spent a fortune on it to get the raw materials.

'But Nothing is more precious than my life'

"Can we see the mystic code?" Ms. White is once again intrigued by the magus in front of her.

At first, she thought Cael is just an ordinary magus but the two mystic codes he has are something worthy of her attention.

"Sure but be careful with it"

He took out a spere from his briefcase. It has weird symbols and paintings on it.

"It has the ability to entrap spirits. However, its capacity is very weak and can only be used once. So, don't be reckless with it"

"Alright, I'm satisfied. We both can hold it for 3 seconds"

Hearing the assurance from the duo, Cael felt some hope. These people are someone from extremely strong organizations that are closer to magic. Their words meant they already know how the enemy looks and his abilities.

"So, how do we find the enemy's location?"

"Don't worry, we can handle it" Mr. Cyan took out a dowsing device.

***

The mind flayer manipulated the surroundings as the space changed around its surroundings.

"Oh lord Oh greatness, lord of the deep, Beneath the waves, your slumbering keep, We, your faithful servants, raise our voice, To summon you forth, to earth rejoice, Grant us your dark and unholy power, our ultimate choice."

On the Altar, all the bodies began to converge into the weird embryo as bright markings appeared all over the place.

A gooey water spilled down on the embryo from the markings as it lost its physical form and appeared ethereal.

"Not enough, Not enough, Not enough...more, more more...."

A distorted sound traveled across the darkness.

***

'What is this ominous feeling?' As Cael's mind's eye is going crazy. Nixie warned directly, it's not like others could hear her.

"Cael, the pollution! It's increasing. This time, even you will be infected be careful. Don't spend too much time. Try to seal it as soon as possible"

Cael understood the threat level just increased even more.

He's not even sure if his mystic code works now.

When the group reached the area where the Mind flayer is praying.

There is a deep moat surrounding the land. With one wrong step, they'll be falling into the abyss with no way to return.

Ms. White and Mr. Cyan immediately attacked the Mind Flayer who is kneeling and trembling.

Daphne is not much of a combatant, she's not even a fully matured magus to speak. Cael just gave her a gun for self-protection, not that it amounts to anything.

"presión del agua"

With Cael's chant, A heavy pressure descended on Mind Flayer but the next second the pressure vanished.

"Annoying pests, how dare you to act disre-*Bang*"

A bullet shot through Mind flayers head who regenerated instantly.

*Bang*

"Do you seriously have to wait till it completes its monologue? Jump on it"

Cael shouted annoyed at the duo's anime-isc behavior.

Ms. White continued their assault with a knife while Mr. Cyan took out a Sigiln and just as he is about to attack it, he noticed a shift on the ground and jumped up but then he felt his head getting crushed.

Ms. White stumbled and began to attack the mind flayer only for Cael to interrupt her.

"Don't! It's fucking with your mind. You are attacking Mr. Cyan"

*Bang*

A bullet shot through Mind Flayer again.

"Argh!! I will *Bang* Kill yo-*Bang*"

Cael didn't let it finish its monologue and shot it from the range. He's currently jumping and gliding across the battlefield.

The Mind Flayer decided to go out as it is getting jumped by three annoying humans.

It is already using the surrounding areas to change the probability to gain an advantage but Cael who is at the range is disturbing its focus.

It's a physically weak being, being a spirit of madness, it has mormentalnd abilities.

Just as it is about to go all out.

Ms. White shouted "Now!!" her eyes glowed revealing mystic eyes, multiple holes appeared on top of the Mind flayer and a cold layer froze the Mind flayer.

At the same time, Mr. Cyan attached a Sigil to the ice chanting

"encore le monde"

Cael activated his mystic code and threw it in front of the frozen Mind flayer.

The Ice cracked quickly and just as it is about to break open.

The sphere opened up and expanded before it swallowed the spirit in the Ice as a whole.

"Seal it, quickly! Something is happening to us, we have to get treated"

Hearing Cael's desperate voice, Ms. White and Mr. Cyan started their procedures. They also felt their minds being unstable and curses spreading across their bodies.

'It's finally over~'

Nixie sighed feeling better now that the being is sealed.
