Twin Mages

Curious, Kaizen silently approached the cages, making sure to stay out of the guard's sight. Kaizen tried to touch the magic barrier and was stopped by a weak electric shock. However, Kaizen didn't even want to imagine what that barrier could do if he insisted on trying to cross it. He realized that he would have to find another way to investigate this strange hut.

Looking more closely, Kaizen noticed that there was a small space in the magic barrier that allowed some people to enter and leave undetected, and the guard was standing right in front of that entrance.

This guard was a human sitting on a chair, and he didn't look like any other mage, for he had golden accessories and looked different from the other mages, as if he felt too important to dress like most. His haircut was short and he had tattoos on his neck and face. Kaizen also noticed that this man was holding a shiny object in his hands, a pocket watch that seemed to be of great value.
