RECALLING THE MAGIC OF SEAMUS

RECALLING THE MAGIC OF SEAMUS

"Why do you want me to follow you? Our people are fighting the scorpion men", Sara protested to me when I asked her to turn invisible and follow me to the end of the temple, where the Horn of Blinding was kept floating in the air.

"The Control Freaks are with them, the scorpions couldn't harm them. Without us it will only take them longer to kill the scorpions", I told Sara.

"What do you want me for?" Sara asked me.

"I need you to look around this place. I want to take the Horn of Blinding and I don't want to alert the scorpion men before I managed to take it", I told her.

"I don't know what you are looking for here", she said to me as she scanned the magic around the place.

"What the hell, there is a magic connection between this bloody horn and those scorpions", Sara told me.

"That is what I suspected. If I tried to snatch the Horn of Blinding, it will attract the attention of the scorpion men who would immediately recall the Horn away. That is the design of this magic", I said to her.

I tried to steal the Horn of Blinding before from another race of hybrid humans called the Khahans. Before I could take the horn, the horn was returned to the hybrid humans who could summon the Horn back to them at will.

"So, what the hell you want me to do?" Sara asked me.

"Is there a way to disconnect the magic from the Horn of Blinding to the Scorpion men, even for a brief period", I asked Sara.

"How do I even do that? There are dozens of these scorpions whose minds are connected to the bloody horn", Sara told me.

"Remember the magic arraye that Seamus the Meek cast from the Temple of Magic, he said one of his arraye would disrupt the soul connecting magic of the Aqrabuamelu, the scorpion men. That arraye prevented them from attacking Tarah city because they would lose their magic link when they came near to the city", I told Sara.

"So, what? What will it do here?" Sara asked me.

"If you can cast the magic now on the Horn of Blinding, that might be able to disrupt its connection to the scorpion men, long enough for me to steal the Horn of Blinding", I told Sara.

"But I don't have his magic arraye", Sara protested to me.

"You managed to reconstruct Seamus' animal attraction magic, why can't you recover the Scorpion men disconnect magic?" I asked her.

"I need time to process this", she said to me as her mind reached into her Temple of Magic.

Sara took her time to reconstruct the Aqrabuamelu magic ward that Seamus the Meek cast with the Temple of Magic. While she was doing so, our friends and the Control Freak continued their fight.

Iviar was badly wounded and was returned to the air carpet leaving only my three Golem friends fighting with the scorpions.

"Damnit, keep it up a while longer", I said to my friends in my mind.

Suddenly, Sara finished her search.

"I can try but I won't know if this is the same magic arraye", Sara told me about the magic arraye that she recovered from the Temple of Magic.

"We will take the chance", I replied to her.

Sara quickly cast an arraye of magic with the Temple of Magic inside of her and soon, magical enchantments surrounded the Horn of Blinding.

------

Without Iviar tanking for the rest of them in the ground, all the scorpion men were rushing to attack them. My friends' magic was strong, but they couldn't deal with so many legendary ranked creatures that easily.

Soon, they were surrounded by scorpion men.

"Damn, we are surrounded", Chash complained to them.

"Master needs a little more time", Meera told them.

"We will be dead before he is ready", Chash complained about their predicament.

The scorpion men made a concerted and coordinated charge toward the three of them on the ground.

"Are we going to die here?" Cassandra asked.

"No, not like this and not here anyway", Meera replied to her.

"It is a comfort hearing from an Oracle", Chash said to her.

Meera wasn't an oracle, but she was an expert on the religious prophecies of Revelations. She knew there were still many predictions that involved her which hadn't come true, so she believed she could make it out of here alive, this time.

"I think we will die again this time"', Cassandra told them as the scorpions' tails thrusted toward them.

Suddenly, to their surprise the scorpion men's tails were stopped by a mysterious force. The force was a magical shield cast by Iras and soon after the shield protected them, the three of them were pulled into the air by Anitor's gravity pulling magic.

"Master is not done yet", Meera complained that she was pulled out from action before she could assist her master to the end.

"You won't have a life to see it done if we stayed down there", Chash told her as they reached the magic carpet of Anitor.

"Where the hell is that rude bitch Sara and that arrogant bastard Oriese?" Iviar asked the three who were just pulled up.

"They are completing the mission of Seamus the Meek", Meera replied to them.

"Are they succeeding?" Epius asked them.

"I hope so", Cassandra replied to her when magical spheres appeared behing her back which cast a storm of fire into the scorpions below them.

Although they were safe in the air, they still needed to distract the scorpions below because the mission wasn't done yet.

"Huh, you can use fire too", Eless said to Cassandra as she cast her firestorm on top of Cassandra's magic.

"I've never seen such magic casting artifacts before", Iras said to Cassandra about her floating spheres.

"They are ancient from the ruined city of Bandra", Cassandra replied to him.

"Who are you people actually? You have a powerful army and travel all around the Ten-Kingdoms to exotic places and obtained so many treasures, but we have never heard of you people before", Epius asked them.

"We prefer to keep a low profile", Ratatouille replied to him.
