Born In Ashes: The Enigma

Azrael once again returned to the Magic Tower, standing about one kilometer away as he silently stared at the black-colored structure.

Finding a deserted alley nearby, he took out a small, round ball from his inventory—roughly the size of a small pebble.

The ball was black in color and looked as if it were made of fine iron.

This small ball was actually a standard scouting device commonly brought into Eonrift by those undergoing the trial. While there were more advanced scouting devices available in Genesis, none of them functioned properly within Eonrift.

Using the controller linked to the scouting ball, Azrael controlled it and sent it flying toward the Magic Tower. Although this small pebble sized scouting ball was not as sophisticated as the one he had previously used, its small size still allowed it to evade the senses of apprentice warriors and even some Class Warriors—so long as they weren’t fully alert.

Thanks to the recording he had watched earlier, Azrael was already very familiar with the layout of the Magic Tower. Soon, the scouting ball entered the tower through one of its many openings, and Azrael carefully directed it toward Claudia’s laboratory.

Navigating around numerous apprentice warriors inside the Magic Tower, the scouting ball eventually reached the top floor where Claudia’s lab was located.

However, the door to her lab was tightly shut, and there were no visible openings for the ball to slip through.

Despite this, Azrael remained calm and waited patiently.

Roughly two hours later, a high-level Warrior Apprentice affiliated with the Magic Tower arrived outside Claudia’s lab and knocked on the door.
