Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King

Chapter 575 575 Secret Spot

"If you would like to send the final warning, I will activate the spells now, and we can start cleansing the curses from the people of Sylvan City." Wolfe instructed the Coven Leader.

"How far away can you activate them from? If we can be in a different building when we make the announcement, it might help throw off any spies that might have sneaked into the city." She suggested.

"That should be fine, as long as we're still relatively nearby." Wolfe agreed.

He could activate those arrays from anywhere in the city, but he didn't want to let that particular bit of information slip to witches that he barely knew.

"Alright then, we can head over to the security building, and this will look like exactly what the maintenance staff took it to be." The Coven Leader decided, before opening the door and reaching for Wolfe's arm so that he could fly them through the city again.

Priya smiled as she saw the old woman's grabby hand gesture, motioning for Wolfe to cast the spells so that they could get going. The old Coven Leader had very little shame about demanding what she wanted, and what she wanted was a ride through the city.

Wolfe casually took her arm and activated the flying spells over the three of them again, following her lead through the city streets to a building only a few blocks away.

[You know, you should make her a walker like the Elder from that village. Cassie told me all about it, and she says the old woman loves it.] Priya suggested through their bond.

[Not a bad idea. I will make it a parting gift for her.] Wolfe agreed.

There were even more guards at this building, and they were wearing body armour, magical armour, and carrying rifles. This was definitely on a whole other level of security from the water treatment facility, and they had to pass through two different blast doors to get inside.

Even the Coven Leader and her guests didn't get inside without an escort, and four armed guards fell in around them as they passed through the second blast door, making them wait until the door was sealed to move on.

Wolfe had no idea if Morgana Coven did the same thing, he had never been up in the top floors before, but if it had been any ordinary threat, they shouldn't have had to worry about much.

Wolfe smiled and set down his backpack, then reverently took out a small, unmarked wooden box. An empty, nondescript box.

His voice was solemn as he addressed the room.

"Where should we put it, Coven Leader?"

She was momentarily startled, as she hadn't intended to put on a show for the guards here.

"There is a hidden panel in the wall. Access to a maintenance box. Nobody will ever think to look there because the contents are long since decommissioned." She replied after a moment's thought.

She led the way to one of the secure rooms, and cast a spell to open a locked panel on the wall. It was a small safe, not a maintenance box, but the guards wouldn't know that, as the front looked like a wall panel, and it only opened through a specific spell.

Wolfe set the box inside, and drew a load of mana from his Mana Cores in preparation to activate the spells on the actual arrays.

"The Coven should be ready. You can finish the activation anytime." The Coven Leader informed him with a smile.

Wolfe activated the spells, and tuned the Mana Gathering Array to feed the spells properly and still maintain a mana density in the city that was the same as the mana level in the Fae Forest.

It wouldn't be quite as smooth for the Witches to work with, since it didn't have that Fae Magic nature to it that was so compatible with their bodies, but it would cause the growth rate of the city's witches to skyrocket, especially in conjunction with the spell that would slowly purge their Bloodline Curse.

The Coven Leader closed the door of the safe and stepped back with a sigh of relief as the influx of mana flowed through her body.

"Oh, you have no idea how good that feels. It's like a massage after a long day at my desk." She sighed.

"I'm glad you enjoy it."

Wolfe turned them with the flying magic and led them back out of the building, while the witches resisted the urge to look back in the room where he had placed the mysterious box that had increased the mana level in the area.

They didn't know yet that it had affected the whole city, or if it was related to the spell that was supposed to cleanse curse damage from everyone, but it was a curious item if it had to be kept in a box and then hidden and locked away for security.

"The details of your visit have been recorded, Coven Leader. Is there anything else that we can help you with today?" The head of security at the outer door asked as they exited the building.

"Please call for a driver to come get us. It is a long trip to the gala event, and we need to freshen up first." The old woman instructed.

"Of course, Coven Leader. We have a car on standby, please wait a moment."

True to their word, there was a limousine only a few blocks away, waiting for any Coven Council Member in the area to request their service, the upper floors equivalent of a taxi. The driver was at their location in only a few minutes, and Wolfe carefully helped the Coven Leader into the vehicle, then Priya before following them inside.

It was all buttery soft leather, with incense burning, and gentle music playing to set a relaxing mood, giving them the impression that they had left the struggle that remained after the winter's battles and returned to a time of luxury and ease.

"We will stop off at my house first, to freshen up before the event. Do you have clothing with you, or would you like that laundered?" She asked Wolfe, knowing that Priya would have no shortage of suitable clothing available.

It was a witch run and witch populated city, where nine in ten were women. How could they not have a suitable dress for her?
