My Mage System

Connor then continued to told them what happened in that room : "This ball of light made me understand that this ore should never fall into their hands and it showed me a man and told me that he was the new King of humans, Xander, and that it was with this man that I had to create an alliance to restore peace in this world.

After that a portal opened and it told me that it was sending me to a man who could help me change things, and that's when I first met Derek."

Kelan then exclaimed : "Damn, this is definitely not an ordinary story."

Caleb looked at Mykael again and he didn't need to ask him for Mykael to make a ball of light appear in front of him and Mykael then asked Connor : "Did the ball of light you saw look like this one ?"

Connor was surprised but he nodded and he told him that it was exactly the same and Mykael then said to him : "This little ball of light is the core of my home world and normally these cores only appear in front of the Gods when they agree to put themselves under their protections.

As for the big diamond you are talking about, I have no idea what it could be… Unless it is the energy source Kevin was talking about.

The one that would make the dungeons appear and thus allow you all to progress much faster than in any other world and also give you all your resources."

Connor couldn't help but muttered as he tightened his grip around Derek's waist : "That Kevin again..."

Derek chuckled and he kissed his cheek saying : "Don't worry you'll meet him soon and you'll see by yourself that he is a man we can rely on."

Caleb then looked at Kelan and he asked him : "Could you and Connor see if you can try to find where that red dungeon was formed."

Kelan nodded and he took out two sheets of paper from his storage ring, he also took out a table big enough for everyone to be able to come around it and then he spread the first sheet of paper on it, which was actually a map of the border and its surroundings.

Kelan said, explaining to them : "This map is the one we use to keep track of the red dungeons that appear, there's only two or three on average per year and they're all always in this area, we also keep track of the ones that appear on the demon side."

Connor then asked him : "Does this mean that with the exact date we'll be able to find the red dungeon that goddess teleported me to."

Kelan nodded and showed him the second sheet of paper, saying : "This is a list of all the red dungeons that have appeared in the last hundred years, with the dates they appeared and disappeared and their geographical coordinates.

Derek immediately gave them the date he first met Connor because it was burned into his memory and Kelan smirked when he saw that there was an active red dungeon on that date.

He showed everyone the location of the dungeon on the map and he told them : "This is where the dungeon was formed and honestly, after going through all the records and matching the information Kevin had given me, this dungeon is exactly in the search area I had decided to explore."

He then took out his own notes and showed them what he had discovered, the construction of the border between their two races went back to just after the first war between them and this whole area had been ravaged by terrible fighting.

By going back to the different maps of that period and taking the big cities as landmarks he had realized that the area where the Acrium had been discovered by the first bearer of the Pentagram Mark and the Warrior Spirit who was with him at the time was now on the side of the demon border.

Caleb then asked him surprised : "Damn, you really managed to do all this in those few hours, that's very impressive."

Kelan smiled and said to him : "Don't forget that in the beginning it was for my analytical skills that you agreed to recruit me."

Caleb looked at Mykael and he asked him : "What do we do ?"

Mykael frowned and he told him : "Elias asked us to notify him as soon as we got a lead and that's exactly what we're going to do... As Connor reminded us, we can't afford to be double-crossed by Lilith or Cassandra, and even if they're not here personally, we can't rule out the fact that there's probably still plenty of men, demons and other creatures in this world who are working for them."

Mykael then asked Connor : "If Lilith thought you were dead in that dungeon and she had no idea of your special abilities why were you captured then ?"

Derek then told them without hesitation : "Alyssa caught us once when Connor had just melted down some medium grade Verarium and made six blades with it in just a few minutes..."

Caleb then exclaimed in astonishment : "Only a few minutes... Fuck, if I knew it beforehand I would have let you make the weapons for Ian, I just finished them and it took me a whole day using my stage 2 to the max of my abilities."

Derek smirked and then he continued, getting serious again : "While Connor was making these weapons we talked about his ability and how great it would be to find an ore so powerful that it could help us to fight against the King and his army, we didn't talk about any ore in particular and I didn't know about a golden ore back then, Connor never told me about it, but may be Alyssa had guessed that Connor was hidding something from me and that's why he was taken by these goddesses."

Connor nodded and he told them : "Indeed, now that you're talking about it, it wasn't long after this event that I was kidnapped."

Mykael then asked him just to be sure : "Did you reveal anything to them... I'm sorry to ask you that but it's important."

Connor shook his head and he said to him : "I never told anything and they would have killed me anyway if I had."

He added then looking at Derek : "I endured all these tortures without ever revealing anything because if I stayed alive then I still had a chance one day to find back my Derek and my boys, and it was this hope that kept me alive for all these years."

Connor then cleared his throat and looked back at Mykael, asking him in turn : "Are you sure we couldn't have been spied on in this place ?"

Mykael smirked and said to him : "I'm absolutely sure. Connor, we're going to need your help to find the Acrium and get it to safety, will you help us ?"
