Chapter 347: North and South
While Nessa was telling me a story that had happened almost a hundred years ago, she told us more about Drakzen and Baelzor.
We knew some of Drakzen’s arsenal, but we were wholly ignorant about Balezor and his powers.
All we knew about him was that he could control people like puppets, but there was obviously more to it than that.
The spell that made Nessa lose control whenever she was in her true form was cast by Baelzor, but Drakzen helped as he could boost the demonic energy of others.
"I’m sorry you had to go through that, Nessa..." Melina said, patting her on the head.
After consoling our devil friend for some time, we were called to the feast, where a long table filled with all kinds of dishes waited for us.
During the banquet, I was sitting down next to the king, so I started telling him about the supposed war that could possibly come.
When we visited the Mages’ Tower, Sage Astra showed me a vision of the future where all of the countries in the world took part in a massive war.
We were trying to avoid that future at all costs, but Astra told us that while changing the future was possible, it was better to prepare for it.
Since then, all the other sages had been traveling to the other nations and explaining the situation to the rulers, making them gather their forces and resources to prepare for a war that might or might not happen.
The king was a bit skeptical at first, which I thought was a normal reaction as it sounded quite ridiculous.
