The Second Greatest Enchanter

[BONUS]

The two of them walked in silence until they reached a small clearing where a glistering lake was seen. The sky was darkening, casting shadows over the area.

Pii went straight into the lake and stopped meters before the two beings who stood near the waters.

When Ren and Evie caught up, the both of them were surprised to see the face of the two — it was Sebastian and . . . an unfamiliar person. He was good-looking and had long black hair, an angular jaw, dark phoenix eyes, and dark thick slanting brows.

From the way he carried himself, his back straight and hands behind his black robe, he seemed like a noble.

To be precise, an Emperor of some sorts?

"Sebastian!" Evie was glad to see the centaur again, and she was about to come close to him when Ren stopped her by extending his hand to block her path.

"Wait. Something is not right," he warned her.

At Ren's warning, Evie looked over at Sebastian and found that the centaur was acting . . . strange.
