Magi jinchen #2

**Chapter Title: A Meeting with Magi Jinchen**

---

Yelisa and Jafar stood at the entrance of the grand palace, its towering walls gleaming under the dim light of dusk. As they walked in, the opulence of the castle became more evident—marble floors, golden chandeliers, and intricate carvings of mythical creatures adorned every corner. The air was thick with an aura of power and mystery.

Without wasting any time, yelisa said "Dad, I will go straight to the point. We need your help."

Magi Jinchen, a towering figure with fiery red hair cascading past his shoulders and eyes that burned like molten lava, turned to face them. His gaze was as intense as a lion ready to pounce. He spoke with a voice that seemed to reverberate through the very walls of the castle. "My daughter, are you afraid I'm going to snatch that book from you? Or do you think I don't already know it's with you?"

Before Yelisa could respond, Jafar stepped forward, attempting to smooth over the tension. "No, she did not—"

But before he could finish, a sudden roar echoed through the hall. In the blink of an eye, a massive, fiery lion materialized, baring its teeth and leaping toward Jafar. The sheer force of its presence made the air crackle with energy.

"Did I give you permission to speak?" Magi Jinchen's voice was cold and unyielding as he commanded the lion to halt. The beast stopped just inches away from Jafar, its breath hot against his face, before it disappeared into thin air.

Yelisa, visibly shaken, tried to compose herself. "No, Dad, I just thought of surprising you when I found the key..."

"Don't lie to me," Magi Jinchen cut her off, his eyes narrowing. "Just come back tomorrow. I'll decide whether to tell you or not. Now leave."

Yelisa could only nod in response, her voice lost in the overwhelming presence of her father. Jafar, still reeling from his near-death experience, kept silent as they turned to leave.

As they exited the palace, the tension between them was palpable. Jafar's mind raced with thoughts of how they could possibly get the information they needed without further angering Magi Jinchen. He knew that dealing with Yelisa's father would be no easy task, but the stakes were too high to back down now.

In the darkness outside, the two of them exchanged a glance. Jafar's resolve hardened, knowing that the path ahead would require more than just cunning—it would require trust, strategy, and perhaps a bit of luck.
