Chapter 444: The Fake Fields and Forests
When I tried to teleport to the start of the hallway on floor 59, my magic wasn’t activating. However, not all of my magic was blocked.
I was still able to cast any other type of spell, but whenever I tried to teleport to any of the places in the castle we had visited, my spell simply didn’t work.
The obsidian stone that was part of the frame of the whole tower had already made our magic slightly weaker, but I knew it wasn’t enough to completely prevent me from casting a spell.
"It’s as if only the teleportation spells are completely blocked..." I commented, and my companions seemed to reach the same conclusion.
*Sigh* "Fine... I’ll be right back," I said to my group, slightly annoyed.
This time, however, instead of trying to teleport to the start of the hallway, I just started flying back at the highest speed I could muster.
My issue with going back to light up the missing torch was the time we wasted there. All the other teams were moving up in the tower, and we heard on a voice message that Yuki and Sage Astra had reached the 50th floor.
Of course, it was a bit easier for the other teams to go through those levels since my team did their best to clear them from demons as much as possible, but having to waste time to light up the torch would allow them to get even closer to us.
After almost an hour of flying, I reached the very beginning of the hallway, and seeing the unlit torch was somewhat irritating. It wasn’t even aligned with the rest of the torches, as if they placed it slightly further away from the others so that people would forget it was there.
