I'm a 70 years old mage not a little girl
28. Don't go to hell, for now

28. Don't go to hell, for now

I'm a knight. From the birth I wanted to become one. I spent a large amount of my time training. Maybe it was a stupid thing to do? Maybe I wasted this time? I could play with my friends in this time, but for some reason I didn't feel that sad about it.

It's not like being a knight doesn't have any disadvantages. No, there are many of them, but I just love being a knight. People respect you, and someday I will meet a girl of my dreams. A girl that I will protect even if it costs me my life.

Well, that's what I thought. That's what I always thought. I'm a knight now, people respect me, and if it's about the girl...

"Don't come too close to it." Morgana said worried when Iris approached the circle of blood.

Iris was a small girl, she had long silver hair, big green eyes and a really cute face. She looked just like a normal cute girl, but there was something weird about her. She was smart and wise, something you don't see often in people of this age. I just couldn't leave her alone.

The girl that I like...

Yeah the girl that I like was now approaching a circle of blood made by a demon. We were standing on a small field because Vyliana told us to come here. She disappeared for some time, and after that she took us to this place. She was a weird girl, and not only because of what she was wearing. She was a succubus, with a beautifull face, and red hair. But she was always wearing a really provocative outfits. Well, she is a  succubus after all. A demon, a scary demon.

That's not why I stood so far away from them. Yeah, I was just a little tired. I wasn't scared of her and this circle.

"Well, I don't know when we will come back, so there is no need to wait for us." Vyliana said and grabbed Iris.

Wait, what? What is she talking about?

As I looked at them, the circle started shining, and both Iris and Vyliana disappeared. Morgana even ran after them, but she was too slow.

"I d-don't understand." I said after a moment.

What did she do? Was she planning on doing something bad? I don't understand.

"I will kill her..." I heard a quiet voice. It was Morgana.

She was a kind looking girl, but sometimes she would say things, that could be even scarier than demons. She was now just looking at empty circle with blank stare.

"W-What?" I asked her, and I don't really know why I did it.

"I will kill her!" she shouted, and started going towards the city.

Yeah, she is scary.

"What are you waiting for?! Follow me!" she said with anger, and I started walking behind her.

"C-Could you explain to me, what happened?" I asked to be sure, but I didn't want to make her more angry.

Well, it looked like Vyliana took Iris with her. Took Iris to hell. But it must be some kind of misunderstanding on my part. I mean, why would she do that? Yeah, I'm sure Morgana will explain everything to me right now.

"What do you not understand?! Are you that stupid?! Just follow me and don't say anything!" Morgana said with anger.

Well, she is scary. But is this really true? As I was thinking about those things, we entered the city, and after some walking we were standing before the mages guild. Then, Morgana started knocking on the door. Well, banging on it, to be precise. It was so loud, that I was scared someone might go out, and beat us for it.

Well, it didn't look like Morgana shared my worries, because she started hitting the door with even more power. She didn't look like someone with that much strength, she really is scary.

"H-How can I help you?" finally,  an old woman asked us, after slightly opening the door. She had long white hair, but there was something really fascinating about her. Her eyes, they had different colors. One of them was green, and the other one was orange.

"Please, sell me a teleportation scroll!" Morgana said and bowed a little.

"Even if you say that, I couldn’t sell you something like that. You are not a part of the guild, and..."

"Please! I really need it!" Morgana asked one more time, this time she bowed her head really low.

This woman looked at her for a moment, and after that she sighed a little.

"You really spent your time with weird people." she said quietly, and opened the door.

"Come, I will see what I can do." she said, and entered the guild.

When I went inside, I saw many many shelves with books that were from different fields, but every one of them had something to do with magic. This whole place was full of books, and behind the shelves I could see some mages that were now reading the books. When the saw us they looked a little angry.

I'm sure that beating on their door was really distracting, but I didn't had time to apologise to them. I needed to help Iris.

After few minutes of walking inside the guild, we approached a big door. It was the biggest door that I have ever saw in this guild. Probably, it was a room of someone important.

"So, what scroll do you need?" woman asked us.

"I want a scroll that will teleport me to hell." Morgana said without thinking.

Yeah, I didn't thought about this. We want to go to hell. Yeah, we want to go to hell. For us it might be normal, we want to save our friend, but for her? We must seem like some weird idiots. She must think that we are stupid. I must explain what happened, or she will refu...

"Ok, no problem." this woman said, as she entered the room.

"E-Eh?!" I couldn't stay silent anymore.

"Why are you so surprised? Mages are really weird people. Well, I know it really well. I lived near one for some time." Morgana said to me, but her voice was weird. For some reason it was a little melancholic.

After maybe ten minutes of waiting we received the scroll. For some reason this woman didn't even wanted money from us, and she was just smiling a little. Almost as she knew something. Something we didn't.

"I don't think you should go there. Maybe things will solve themselves, who knows. But it seems like you won't listen to me." she said, and smiled one more time.

"I really should pay for something like that..." Morgana tried to say something, but was interrupted.

"Don't worry about this. Just go." she said, and Morgana opened the scroll. It seemed like she didn't want to waste any more time. Well, I could understand her. I wanted to help Iris as fast as possible. We couldn't wait.

"Y-You see, could you please use this scroll outside? It really w-would help..." this woman said with a worried look on her face.

"What are you waitting for?! We are going!" Morgana shouted, without even considering what this woman was saying, and grabbed my hand.

After that she finished the chant, and I saw a big flash of light before me. After that I lost my consciousness.
