Chapter 2176: Far Off in the East III
"Frey! You came!" Peridot shouted as she ran towards Frey or rather glided towards her and proceeded to lock arms with her.
"The sisters told me to take a vacation since I have been working for far too long without rest. They said that the new recruits were not resting because of me which is why I came. I hope that I am not intruding on something important." Frey stated.
"Oh no! Not at all. I am actually glad that you came as Equinox will no longer be a third wheel." Peridot stated as she looked at Adrian with cunning eyes.
"I see. Thank you for the invitation but what is this about mutual assured destruction that I heard?" Frey stated.
"It is nothing as it is just a way that we tease each other since we grew up together. I did not know that you were invited but I am really glad that you came." Adrian stated as a small smile could be seen on his face.
"I was just chatting with Peridot earlier and she suddenly brought it up. I was not even able to give you a head up as I needed to arrange some things before coming here." Frey stated as her face could be seen to have a slight tinge of a blush.
"You know, both of you are really getting on my nerves because of your looks. It feels like God is playing favorites when they created both of you. Tell me, what is the value of your Charisma stat? It must be incredibly high since both of you are glowing like this." Peridot stated.
"You can put points into the Charisma stat?" Adrian answered.
"There is a Charisma stat?" Frey answered.
Peridot is a bit dumbfounded as Frey did not know that there is a Charisma state. It might be hidden at the very bottom of the status card but there is a stat like that. She suddenly looked at Frey and became speechless even more. If she truly did not know there is a stat like that then her entire face and look is what she looks like in the real world. She was a drop-dead gorgeous beauty that would make any person drool about her. Gender would not be a barrier for her because of the way she looks.
"I suddenly felt like a bit of my ego is shattered because of my question. To think that someone can match him in the real world as well." Peridot stated as she looked at Frey and Adrian.
Peridot actually became shy when he met Adrian for the first time when they were kids because he is indeed different than others. Levin Cloud was cute when he was a kid as well, but Adrian had a different aura. All the neighborhood aunties would fawn over him and give him treats. He was the favorite child on the block because he was respectful with a cute appearance to boot.
"What are you looking at me for?" Levin Cloud stated as he noticed that Peridot was staring right at him.
"Nothing. I just suddenly stared blankly... sorry." Peridot replied.
"Why do I feel like I was suddenly judged and compared to someone better than me?" Levin Cloud muttered.
"I finished the magic circle that you requested. Are you sure that this is going to work?" Adrian asked.
"Do you think it will fail? You are the expert when it comes to magic circles among all of us. Even the Old Man Emris would bow down to you when it comes to analyzing magic circle structure." Peridot stated.
"Wow! Even a Former Imperial Mage praises you about magic circles! You must be incredibly good at it." Frey stated which made Adrian blush a little because of the compliment.
"I just honestly like shapes and it is fun looking at magic circles." Adrian stated as he scratched his neck shyly.
"Look at this dude. I was the one that praised him originally, but he ended up being shy when Frey praised him. Anyways, is there a problem with the magic circle?" Peridot stated.
"The structure is stable, but the destination encrypted is a bit dubious." Adrian stated.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Why is the destination encrypted dubious?" Peridot asked.
"It was from the former coordinates when the world was still small. It might have changed by now since the world expanded by a lot." Adrian stated.
"Can you adjust it to match the coordinates now?" Peridot asked.
"Let me think a little. I think this should be good enough." Adrian stated as he started to rewrite parts of the magic circle.
"Can you activate it now?" Peridot asked.
"Sure. All of you please enter the circle." Adrian gestured as the three of them finally entered
it.
"I hope that the adjusted coordinates are correct. I am activating it now." Peridot stated as she gathered the six elements around her.
There are six circles at the outer part of the magic circle. Peridot placed each element in different circles and made the magic circle glow. The elements suddenly shot into pillars of energy and converged at the middle to create a dome. The dome is then filled with large amounts of energy and all four of them vanished in an instant as if an elemental explosion happened.
The four of them felt like all the elements caressed them gently as all six elements actually protected them while their bodies were sent to another location via the ley lines. Adrian is actually fascinated by the magic circle when he first saw it as it utilized the ley lines as a mode of transportation. Such a complex spell could actually only be used by the Ryujin as they could easily tap into the energy of these ley lines. A small elemental explosion of different elements happened as all of them arrived at their destination or at least close to it.
"I think you were wrong about the coordinates. I was told we would have appeared in pavilion entrance using that spell." Peridot stated as all of them were transported to the very peak of the mountain instead.
