THE COSMOS

The master levitated on air while the two jars floated on air too, as he started chanting they burst open with a loud sound, startling the people outside.

As he went on chanting three magic circles appeared overlying on each other, Modez knew his master was powerful but he didn't expect for him to know the ancient purifying magic.

As the magic circles overlying together, are the form of the ancient magic, that was said to be left by the hollyones' Mages, to help the world from the corruption left by the dark figure.

After the magic circles appeared the fluctuation of mana started, as the mana was drained from the surrounding and to the three magic circles.

The first one acted as a sunction, and the other as a purifier and the third as a release.

After a five minutes the first summoning magic circle was fully absorbed, the room was filled with so much mana that the master glowed with a shimmering light.

Just as the first magic circle was fully absorbed, the followers of the dark figure appeared just outside of the back entrance of the cave.

As the appeared on the outside of the cave they saw no guards.

"Are they negligeting their duties again, I am tired of these rats, why don't we just sacrifices them instead of animals, as animals might have intelligence more than them," one of the mages wearing red robe said.

"Don't just jump to conclusions easily what If there is something going on with them," the other wearing purple robe with a symbol of the dark figure on it.

There were six mages wearing different robes, except for two of them but all had the symbol of the dark figure on them, one was wearing a red robe,the other was wearing a pink robe, another wore a purple robe, the other wore a vermilion robe and the three wore crimson robes.

The color difference indicated the level of the mages in their cult of the dark figure, as red robe signifies the lowest or the beginner level, pink signifies the intermediate level, purple meant apprentice level, vermilion meant disciple level and lastly crimson meant the master level.

"We have guests," Joles said looking at Modez. As Joles felt the change and strong fluctuation of mana outside the cave

Modez gave orders to his squad, as the fight was inevitable today, he instructed everyone of their duties, only Jender was kept inside just outside the door that gave him the creeps.

Modez was leading the remaining squad members, through the back entrance of the cave, as they knew no one would come from the front entrance.

As they moved they heard a voice calling them from the chamber, where there were the rescued hostages, as they turned they saw a frail figure approaching them.

"Can I tag along?," she asked. They all looked at each other.

"Why not! Let's go but what are you going to fight with?," Modez asked.

She went inside the chamber and came out with a bow and a quiver full of arrows.

"Would this suffice!," she asked holding a bow and a quiver full of arrows.

"It will be more than enough if you know where to shoot at," Modez said.

As they moved through the passage on the back entrance, Joles and the lady that followed them stopped abruptly.

Joles shot a fire spell while the lady shot two arrows at the same time, the arrows whistled as they moved through Joles' spell, they came out of the spell scorched, as the spell infused with them, they hit two of the followers of the dark figure on their heads, and the burnt to death instantly their bodies burning.

The fire spell that Joles shot hit the one of them and he took fell down crying in agony as he burnt.

On the other side Jender was restless, not knowing what was going on, on the other side didn't fit his criteria, but orders were given to him so he stayed put, as time goes on he heard the sound of something breaking behind the door he stood.

He turned as he saw the master still levitating on air, but the magic circle on the ground had many cracks, as the red substance that the master was using took shape of a spear, and hit the magic circle again.

Jender turned back leaving the master to continue what he was doing guarding the chamber.

After three of the dark mages fell to their death the remaining three elected a protective barrier infront of them while questioning their antagonists as they were bombarded with more wind, fire, earth and more magic.

Modez observed the barrier and asked Joles about it, Joles told him about the barrier to be a high tier one, simple attacks will do no harm on it.

Modez looked at Marci who held her sword ready for action, understanding what he wanted, they all channelled their mana and jumped towards the barrier created by the mages of the dark figure, they all slammed with all their strength they all bounced back.

As the bounced back two arrows were shot, as they were on air Joles imbued them with magic, they came out as fire and ice arrows and hit barrier.

Not stopping Modez and Marci were at it again, hitting the barrier as it started cracking, the three mages were high level but could not withstand the bombardment of attacks, they all looked at the entrance and started bolting out still holding the barrier, when they were nearly out of the cave.

Five whistling sounds were heard, Joles imbue all the arrows with different kinds of magic, giving the cave a beautiful but dangerous aura, the arrows hit the barrier, cracking sounds were heard.

Marci was told by Modez to strike first, as she did Modez was Right behind her, the barrier collapsed under her overwhelming strength.

Modez rushed past her and threw his spear towards the Mages, the spear glowed with a shimmering light as it travelled towards the entrance of the cave, the mages looked behind them just seeing multiple lights coming towards them not knowing what to do.
