I knew I woke up and left the place where Loki was but the darkness was still there. No. I was blindfolded and tied up to something. I was most likely on the ship because I could hear waves and whatever I was on it was wobbling. Probably a ship. Someone was walking because I could hear the wood creaking under their feet. There were a few people but no one talked. If those are the cultists they probably talk in sign language like in the temple.
Where are they going? And why did they take me with them? Maybe they are going to sell me as a slave. Tae was one for a bit if I remember. I’m still not sure what their goal is… but there still is the possibility that they’ll kill me!
Also… Where is Tae? Is he on the ship? Or did they kill him… No. He acts like someone weak but he did kill a few people and he is strong if he puts his mind to it. If he is alive then how did Landrir get here?
After a few minutes of clean weather, it began to rain and the waves were getting stronger. It was a strong rain that almost felt like a shower. From time to time, the ship was tilted by waves so much that my hand started to hurt because of me almost rolling around.
I felt something wet but warm. It was touching my hand around and then it touched me and moved across my hands. It was doing something with the rope but I couldn’t see anything. I wanted to shout something but when I opened my mouth someone grabbed it.
[ Tae ]
“It’s me. Don’t shout.” He whispered. I slightly nodded and he took his hand away.
[ Eric ]
“I was just thinking about what happened to you.”
[ Tae ]
“I saw that guy you didn’t want to kill so I hid to not show my face.”
[ Eric ]
“Unfortunately this friend smacked me in the head…”
Tae took off my blindfold and I could see a big ship with few people on the deck. It was almost a night. I was tied in the back of the ship with no one guarding me. Am I really nothing dangerous to them?
[ Eric ]
“How long was I out here? I’m kinda hungry…”
[ Tae ]
“For a whole day.”

“Huh… Well, he did hit me very hard… You know where are we going?”
[ Tae ]
“We passed one island that I recognized. Looks like we are going toward Dalir village.”
[ Eric ]
“What those scums want from this place…”
My hands were finally free. I wanted to thank Tae for that but then someone jumped on me and started licking my face.
[ Skyge ]
“Master! Are you okay?!”
[ Eric ]
“I’m fine. I’m fine. Did they hurt you?” I said as I pat Skyge to calm him down. He is still a child and very emotional at that.
[ Skyge ]
“No. I hid in your shadow.”
[ Eric ]
“Good. Now… What do we do…”
As I was talking with Tae I barely heard someone walking up the stairs to us. Tae hid himself as fast as possible by getting into a box. Skyge jumped into my shadow and I blindfolded myself again and imitated being tied to the pole.
[ Cultist ]
“The time has come. I’m taking you to three apostles of the moon.” Said the man as he approached me from the back.
Before he could even check the rope I stood up and tried to choke him with my hands. To my luck, this cultist wasn’t strong at all and there was no one else with him. Probably because we killed a lot of her followers. The man finally lost consciousness.
[ Eric ]
“Come out. I have an idea.”
[ Tae ]
“How are you going to use me this time?”
[ Eric ]
“How good is your acting?” I asked as I took the robes of the cultist.
[ Tae ]
“If I’m not the bait in your plan then I’m in.”
[ Eric ]
“It’ll be enough if you just take me to that three apostles and then fight them.”
We threw that cultist into the box. He only had a knife on him so I took it since I didn’t have any other weapon on me. The robe was big enough for Tae to wear and partially hid his face. When I looked on the deck to see if there are those three guys but I couldn’t see much because of the rain.
[ Eric ]
“I can’t see shit out there!”
[ Tae ]
“I think I know where they are. Three men were going toward the front of the ship. It might be them.”
[ Eric ]
“Did you see their faces?”
[ Tae ]
“No… oh! One of them had bandages on his hands.”
[ Eric ]
“Then that must be them… They are from earth too.”
[ Tae ]
“Really? It might be a hard fight if they have better spells than us.”
[ Eric ]
“I won’t give them a chance to do that.”
