Spellcrafter's Demise

A/N: The first 50 or so chapters have a comedic focus and are setup for the following plot. They are fun and introduce a lot of important characters, but don't be scared off by the lacking early plot. All of the setup and worldbuilding will be worth it. Hitching a ride with a summoned demon, Edol finds himself in a magical new world. Unfortunately for the young man, his dreams of discovering and exploring magic are quickly interrupted. This new world... knows nothing like a summoning spell. The few powers with previous information about the easily weaponizable spell quickly try to stifle the news of its existence. The moment Glory, the strongest Empire on the Eastern Continent, catches wind of the summoning spell, they move quickly. There is finally a way for them to conquer not only the continent they reside on, but also a method to travel over to sea to claim the land of other countries. ... And if they want to acquire this new spell, who better to search for than the one summoned by it in the first place?

Horse Acquisition

Outside the eastern side of the city. 

A group of three stood a few hundred meters from the city's limits, taking a rest under a small tree. There were farm fields stretching in every direction, most of them already having been harvested before the incoming winter.

"Damn. I'm not sure how I didn't think this through right away."

Lod was scratching the back of his head with an embarrassed expression.

The group of three were on foot. Salis's three horses were all stored at the northern ranch-stables, while Apperot was at the farmer's ranch north of the city.

The original plan had been to avoid those areas, as the cult would likely still be searching for them around there. Traveling around on foot wasn't really an option, though.

Horses were worth a fortune, and it would be a huge loss to have to buy new ones in the future. Furthermore, wandering around on foot would take way longer, and the soreness would be painful.
