Chapter 26: Raven's Diary

York stood at the mouth of a secluded alley, his top hat clutched tightly in his hands, looking ahead in annoyance, his long gray hair wet little by little by the fine rain.

"It doesn't make any sense at all......" York said to himself. Could it be that Katrina has mastered spatial attribute magic?

Time magic, some spiritual magic, and some elemental magic have been banned after the establishment of the Wizards' Guild, and the spells are sealed in the magic towers of the Floating City, and only some of the great magicians with high status and prestige can learn them. However, spatial magic has been proposed many times, but it is not listed as a forbidden art, because it is very difficult to learn, only a very few people with extraordinary talents can master it, and they cannot pose any effective threat to others.

The rain became a bit heavier, and the surrounding streets became darker. York waved his staff and chanted a simple incantation. A black, yellow-eyed raven appeared in his hand, and York, unaware of what he muttered, flapped its wings and flew quickly north.

......

On one of the streets of Montedia, a graceful figure in a dark purple robe moved along the wall, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the road, but the greedy eyes around her were still unabashedly focused on her.

Ten minutes later, the figure stopped in front of a flower shop. The store is not large, and when viewed through the glass window, it is almost completely dark, except for a few flower baskets and bouquets near the door. She looked at the small wooden sign that read "Proofed" hanging on the glass door, hesitated, but pushed the door open and walked in.

"Jingle bells. The moment the door was opened, the bell rang.

"It's closed, come back tomorrow!" a young voice came from inside.

"I want to buy a flower that doesn't have petals. ”

The voice didn't answer, and a few seconds later, the lights in the room came on.

Catrina immediately found herself in a world of flowers. The small room is almost full of flower stands, and all kinds of common and uncommon flowers fill every corner, leaving only a walkway to pass through.

Katrina slowly removed her hood and brushed the raindrops from her forehead with her onion-white fingers.

At the other end of the aisle, a teenage boy with a freckled face looked at Katrina in amazement. After being stunned for a few seconds, he said with a flushed face: "The boss said that there will be an important guest today, and sure enough, it is...... You can wait here for a while. With that, the boy slipped into the house behind him and slammed the door shut.

The surroundings were quiet again. Katrina pulled out a palm-sized journal from her robe, with the words "Raven's Diary" scrawled on the cover.

Soon, Katrina fell into memories. It was a month ago, and Katrina was secretly escorting Vane and the others in the Everfree Forest, when she accidentally discovered a forest cabin......

"Simpson!" said Elena angrily, then pulled her bow hard, and shot a skeleton mage's head.

"Lend me your sword. Simpson said to Felder ......

At that moment, there was a subtle distortion in the air nearby, and the next second the air returned to normal. At the same time, the black cloak chanting the incantation in the wooden house stopped its incantation, and stood stiff - a dagger was gently pressed against his lower back.

"Who are you......" The voice of the black cloak was full of surprise, and there were not many people who could approach him quietly.

"Shadow wizards, right?" a woman's voice came from behind her. "What are you doing here, tell me what you know, and I'll spare you from death. ”

The woman's voice was perfect, and he unconsciously fantasized about it. But soon he didn't dare to think about anything, and the tip of the dagger pierced into his skin, causing his whole body to crumble instantly.

Sweat began to break down from his black cloak, and he threw away his staff, slowly moving his arm, and gesturing to the table against the wall.

"Speak!" Catrina waved her dagger again. The man in black gasped, but he just shook his head desperately and didn't say a word.

Katrina glanced at the messy table, and then at the black cloak's refusal to speak, and probably guessed some of the reasons for this.

"I'm going to spare you speechless shit today. Katrina said deliberately, forcing the man in black to walk towards the table.

Soon, Black Cloak took out a copper key from the dark compartment of the drawer and handed it to Katrina behind her, pointing upstairs.

Katrina made her way up the creaking stairs to the second floor. She wasn't worried about the black-clad man's deception, but more worried about not being able to get useful information, which was a rare opportunity.

The smell of decay on the second floor made Katrina frown. The bright light of the crystal ball illuminated the surroundings, and in an inconspicuous corner she found a wooden box.

"Click. The wooden box was opened, and there was only a small diary inside. The diary was scribbled, and Katrina flipped through it a few times before closing it and putting it in her pocket.

When they returned downstairs, the black cloak was long gone, and Vane and the others seemed to have escaped. Katrina breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly in the direction the group had left.

......

Awakening from her memories, Katrina flipped through the journal quickly, pausing as she reached one of the pages, which read:

"May 10, 314 A.D."

"I heard some anecdote about the president from a friend of the guild today, and since this day of fear cannot be changed, let's have fun with myself. ”

"It is said that the chairman was also a handsome and dashing magician when he was young, but later he was cursed for going to the cursed forest to hunt for treasure, and he became neither a human nor a ghost. Of course, I personally think he has a brain problem. If that's true, it's a bit miserable to think about. Later, it was in Montedia that the Shadow Wizards Guild was founded, and it has been twenty-six years now. ”

"By the way, there's even more exciting news, it is said that the president had a time with a prostitute in Obojar when he was younger...... Tsk, how to put it, I personally don't believe these rumors. ”

“......”

There are a few more paragraphs to follow, but Katrina is just staring at the first two. Although so many days have passed, my heart is still pounding when I see this.

The young magician, the prostitute of Obohar, left to hunt for treasure in the Cursed Forest and found the Shadow Wizards Society, which has been established for twenty-six years, and is about to celebrate its twenty-fifth birthday...... These rumors, who don't know where they came from, surprisingly coincide with their own life experience, and there is no contradiction at all.

Katrina's breathing was a little rapid, which made her feel uneasy. She put the journal back in her pocket and picked up a bouquet of flowers in front of her and looked at it.

"Jingle bells. Just then, the door of the flower shop was pushed open.

"Dried flowers of violets, do you like them?" a hoarse voice came from the doorway.
