"I did not know that people from the black market were able to develop something like this. I'd say it is pretty convenient," Lachlan Blaize beamed as he stared at the ring in his hand. It was a single-location teleportation device that was able to teleport them into different borders. This was a new toy that the black market developed. "Tell me… why do you think that they were able to develop something like this when we cannot?"
"They have access to relics, for one." Brinley Fleur shrugged. He removed the ring and placed it inside the spatial bag that he just bought. "And they could openly work with sorcerers to create the teleportation device." The Seven Empires hated the existence of Sorcerers. Openly working with them could affect their reputation.
Instead, they chose to focus on research and trying to create devices without using sorcery. Obviously, this was not working so well.
Because of this, some of the empires have started working with sorcerers— secretly.
