Chapter 47:Finding his Trail

While Adryan was trying to think of a way to avoid meeting the witch in another part of Backlund, a few people were a bit busy.

To be specific, it would be a Seer and a Warrior who were busy…

Nathan was holding wooden dowsing rods, shaped like two straight metal wires that taper at one edge.

He was now using the 'Dowsing Rod Seeking' to find Chaplin because attempts with other divination arts had failed miserably.

When he tried to use Dream Divination to find the redhead, all he could see was endless darkness.

When he tried to use Pendulum Divination it had failed and he was not even able to know if Chaplin was still in Backlund....

The only reason they were still in Backlund searching was that Nathan's spirituality told him that he was still here.

The only thing that seemed to work was 'dowsing rod seeking' and even so they had been moving through remote parts of Backlund for the last 6 days.

Numerous times it had taken them to Bravehearts Bar, other times to different parts of the East Borough, and once to a building that had recently burned down...

They had been moving like this since Friday and never managed to see even the shadow of Mr. Chaplin.

You'd think it would be easy to find someone with such striking hair color but they weren't having any luck.....

The two of them were running out of time and Nathan knew it, every day that passed he was having nightmares about the storm, and whenever they fell into the water Mr. Chaplin saved them.

But in these nightmares, the storm was slowly getting stronger...

A weight settled on their backs and through dreams, Nathan calculated that something would happen to them at the beginning of July and if they couldn't find Chaplin they wouldn't survive the storm.

Trying to calm his mind so it doesn't affect Divination, Nathan kept moving forward as Sasha followed.

Sasha was looking at her partner's back as she silently lamented that she wasn't able to help him.

The 'Warrior' Pathway although this was one of the strongest physically in low sequences but due to the lack of mysterious abilities she was of no use in the search.

And this bothered her a lot...

Nathan had been very stressed during this time and Sasha could tell, these nightmares were already taking enough of him.

And now they were looking relentlessly for Chaplin's traces but they looked like blind dogs with no muzzles because they seemed to move in circles.

She wasn't talking to Nathan so that he would be able to focus and use Divination without much trouble...

And so they kept moving until they passed a two-story hunting club, the rod remained pointed for a while but then it pointed elsewhere...

Sighing they moved on and night came and the crimson moon hung quietly in the dark sky.

"Nathan that's enough let's go home and keep looking tomorrow..."

"Wait Sasha let's continue a little more, we are close I can feel it"

"Like when we got to that collapsed building?"

"It's different this time the feeling is stronger, so please just a little more"

Nathan turned around and looked at Sasha with his blue eyes and she, seeing the look of this, just sighed and agreed to continue looking but only for another half hour.

Thanking Sasha, Nathan continued to use 'Dowsing Rod Seeking' as they moved through a residential area....

....

....

Adryan had now finished dinner and he was preparing to sleep without knowing that he was about to receive some nocturnal visits...

Nathan followed the path that led to the wooden rod, and after 15 minutes of moving in this middle-class neighborhood, they managed to arrive in front of a house.

The rod was kept pointed at this house and began to vibrate slightly, and Nathan felt his spirituality being drained at an alarming rate so he had to let go of the rod.

The rod fell to the ground as Nathan dropped to one knee as he took long breaths.

Sasha quickly moved to his side as she checked to make sure he was okay.

Nathan nodded to her and pointed to the house in front of them, after recovering a little air he was able to speak.

"Mr. Chaplin should live here..."

Click....

The sound of a revolver hammer made Nathan and Sasha freeze.

They hadn't heard anyone move behind them...

"May I know what you are doing in front of my house?"

The familiar voice made the Seer and Warrior breathe a slight sigh of relief but while they had managed to find Chaplin now they had to explain why they were there.

Whereas Adryan was just cursing in his head.

Thanks to his senses he was able to hear how someone was passing in front of his house but he had not given it much importance but when he heard something fall to the ground and a familiar voice the redhead had put on the Burnt Band and he had used Shadow Leap to be able to stand behind them.

Seeing the great height of the woman and together with the voice of the man, Adryan was sure that it was Nathan and Sasha so giving a strong sigh that made Nathan and Sasha scared, he ordered them to turn around slowly.

Nathan and Sasha slowly turned around and managed to see a scene that terrified them a little.

Adryan was in the shadows 7 meters from them, wearing a white shirt that had an the area of the chest open with black pants and his bright red eyes glowed slightly in the dark.

A very disturbing scene...

"I appreciate you visiting me but I would have preferred it to be daytime..."

The calm voice of the redhead sounded through the heads of Nathan and Sasha and they watched as the redhead lowered the revolver.

"I hope you guys have a good explanation for this..."
