My Magical System

Chapter 118: Emblem

“.....”

Yeman was speechless from these surreal creatures.

He chuckled a bit but stopped when he heard some hurried footsteps. It was heading in their direction and was coming from inside.

By the sound of its footsteps alone, he could guess who it was. As expected, the Elder Dark Priest showed up.

Yeman was slightly surprised to see the other creature who went to look for their said creator.

When the creatures saw the Elder Dark Priest, they noisily called out.

“The Creator is here!”

.....

After hearing the creature with a human face bat, the other two immediately glanced behind.

“Creator! Creator! This fool—!”

Before the creature with the Ratman’s body could finish its words, a dark green flame engulfed its whole body. It let out a quick groan before its whole body turned to ashes.

“!!”

The remaining two creatures immediately fell silent and stared at it with dumbfounded faces. They wondered why their creator did that. They saw their creator rushed in panic in front of the supposed intruder. He kneeled while saying, “My lord, sorry for the disrespect of these ignorants,” Said the Dark Elder Priest in an ashen countenance.

“What!?” The two left creatures exclaimed upon seeing their creator kneeled in front of the intruder. The creator said “My lord?!” they thought and realized something. “Could he be... The being higher than the creator? The Almighty one?!”

Just after they realized it, the two trembled in fear. Also, the creator sent sharp and cold glances to the two remaining creatures.

They further trembled in fear and immediately went to crouch on the ground, afraid that they would be the next victims by that scary flame. “A-almighty one... P-please, forgive our insolence...”

“.....”

They brightened up when they heard a chuckle from him, but they froze upon seeing his face. Because, even though he was chuckling, they saw a cold glint in his eyes. Even the Dark Elder was sweating profusely.

Yeman just shrugged and asked about these new creatures.

The elder dark priest immediately replied. “My lord, they are the product of my advancement. I learned some good skills while exploring my knowledge about humans and monsters...”

He didn’t know what to feel after hearing the elder’s reply. They were the product of the Elder’s weird creation.

As a person and former beast himself, the elder got an idea of turning humans into monsters. His model for it was the lord and his ability.

His reason for doing it was the lord’s suggestion last time, that he needed some assistance to quicken his work.

“Wait, did you say that they have the human brain?” he asked while secretly gulping his saliva. In any case, it was an absurd experiment of his.

The elder then further explained to him.

He learned that the face and brain were the face and brain of the people they caught. With his healing ability, it was easy for the elder to connect their organs or nerves.

Yeman stopped him from further explaining as it would explode his brain of how the elders did his operation. He just knew that it wasn’t based on science and purely through magic.

No, it just wasn’t his cup of tea.

He even touched on the topic of how he altered the organs to coordinate the two unrelated bodies. The elder also said that he locked their memories. His first subject became a useless tool after it cried and cried for finding itself in a different body.

In his fury, he burned it.

It was troublesome, and he could not command.

Yeman disregarded the topic and went on directly for his reason for coming.

They immediately went into a secluded room of the elder. He confirmed the elder’s word when he contacted him through telepathy.

After the elder nodded, he materialized a grotesque head. It was the head of Demon Yule.

He told him what happened and what he wanted the elder to do with the head.

The Elder Dark Priest stared at it with so much interest.

The elder then started his task. He prepared, dissected the brain, and read all the memories in it.

All information was written in a language impossible to understand by normal humans. However, he wasn’t normal at all. He could translate any language.

“Sorry, My lord, this is the only information I could get.”

Yeman gazed at him. He saw the elder was wearing a confused expression.

He surmised that the Elder Dark Priest could only read the leftover memories after the brain died.

But the next words of the Elder Dark Priest took his interest. “Although my lord, I was only able to get little information from this brain, it was similar to the information I read from that Oldman.”

No need to ask who was the Oldman he meant. It was the elder from the Gentlewind family.

The Elder Dark Priest then started his report about the information he received from the Oldman’s brain.

Yeman grinned.

The pieces started to come together. Based on the Elder Dark Priest’s reports, both the Oldman of the Gentlewind family and Demon Yule received a contact from the person veiled in black clothing.

The person who approached them had the emblem of a burnt skull at the back of the ebony clothes their contact was wearing.

His description of the emblem was identical to the burnt mark he saw in Demon Yule’s forearm. It must be the emblem of that secret organization.

But since the Elder Dark Priest shook his head when he asked if the Oldman had the same marks, he could not tell if he was part of the organization.

Yeman pondered for a moment. Since they approached the Oldman, the Oldman wasn’t unrelated to it. Even if he wasn’t a member of them, he must be in a transaction with them.

Right now, his only clue was their emblem and the place where they usually met up.

He needed to reach out to Sword Martial Turo; he must warn him.

If even one of the heads of one of the strongest clans was associated with them, it was right to assume that they were dealing with an organization with a tremendous background.

Also, the marks on them, it was the same mark stated in the diary of the previous host of his body.

Wait, why would such an organization be so interested in a poor girl’s Magician’s Seed?

Too bad that the Elder Dark Priest could only read bits of the memories.

“Are you okay, My lord?”

His pondering went to a sudden halt when he heard the Elder Dark Priest’s question.

Yeman left the Elder Dark Priest domain and went to find Dos, one of his people. He would be asking him to contact the Thief, Reppo Callidu. He needed him to investigate something.

Aside from the information regarding the organization, the Elder Dark Priest also told him another input.

Yeman needed to investigate the Goldenlotus family.
