Chapter 319: The Last Piece?
'Before a person arrives somewhere, their intention to reach that place is already there. All I have to do is grasp that intention.' What he planned was an elaborate prediction because reading the future wasn't possible. The Shop provided several protections when the operator was inside.
If someone else aside from him tried to do this, they would find themselves in an unsolvable problem. But, he rearranged the spell and rewrote the ticket in 10 minutes flat.
Grayfia came out of her thoughts as he stood up. She wondered what he planned to do with the pitch-black ticket with golden lines in his hand. It gave her an ominous feeling, but she tried to not show it.
'Master worked on it for some time, what does he plan to do with it? It shouldn't be anything harmful to him right?' Watching his calm demeanor Grayfia decided to not ask about it.
The ticket flew out of his hand and expanded to create a black blot on the space it occupied. Appearing like an unwashable stain it pricked her consciousness as it made the room look dirty. But, she also gulped feeling the cold energy that tried to seep into her. Even if it couldn't go past the barrier around her, she felt the fear.
However, she couldn't focus much on that. Adam turned to her and extended his hand.
"Let's go and catch some fresh air." His words did come as a surprise. She didn't think of it as a portal, instead, it looked like a demon-summoning spell. The bigger surprise came in the form of that outstretched hand.
But, thinking about it again, this made sense. If Adam summoned a portal, he had to go somewhere. And if he had to go somewhere, bringing her along was a no-brainer.
'A maid has to stay by her Master's side at all times.' Grayfia held the hand with all her strength.
