"This Mage that I'm after is a Metal Mage. Whatever metal is around him, this person controls it. If metal bullets were used against him, he would make the bullets halt or alter their direction to hit somewhere else. He could conjure up weapons out of metal within a fraction of a second."
"He was ranked as a second-rate Mage, but he is still dangerous in one-on-one battles," explained Baldwin.
All the Founders glanced at one another as the children followed Rina's lead went out of the tense dining hall.
"I don't think we've ever heard a Mission like this before... So what you're saying is that the vanishing of kids is attributed to the victims of our program during the Congregation's rule? And I'm assuming that you want us all to help with the missing children's Mission?" asked Raiyen.
The Time Mage's mind was trying to piece everything out properly.
"What if the missing kids are connected to the Briton Mission? Wouldn't it only be the Pillars doing the investigation?" asked the Slayer.
"If FB is a Mage connected to the missing children, then I'll have to allow the Pillars to activate. Anyways, has anyone seen this guy before? Unfortunately, the records I've got are useless about his background information. I don't think FB is a Mage, but I know that he is extremely wealthy."
"As for those victims that I've mentioned, Z and I would be giving out a list of names to be on the lookout for each Domain. Mavislin, I might need your help on this as well. After we've determined the list, I will be activating some of my elites to get an overview of the Five Domains."
"I was hoping to get some rest, but the least I could do would be planning out the routes and targets to meet. Unfortunately, I cannot join the Missions in my condition now, so please bear with me," explained Ysabeau.
"Let's see the Map Crystal determine which places are the spots that our targets are hiding," suggested Gillian, standing up.
Everyone at the dining table nodded and stepped away from the stone table. The area shook as the table morphed into a large slab of green crystal. Bryan looked intrigued as the Map Crystal fully formed with the entire map of the Five Domains imprinted on it.
The Map lit up with bright dots while holographic pages appeared everywhere, scaring the Slayer. Mavislin could not help but giggle while Tomoe was outright laughing at Bryan. The Time Mage tried holding back but to no avail.
"I'm guessing you don't do well with illusion Magecraft," laughed Raiyen.
"What is that thing?!" yelled Bryan, completely freaked out by it.
"It's called the Map Crystal. Thanks to Z's expertise in technology and Mavislin's wings, both of them have created this as a method to monitor our members during their patrol. These bright dots are our members on duty, and they are holding a Signal Crystal."
"If they need to call back up, they can use the Signal Crystal to summon Mages or us nearby. We only give it to those with titles like the Seats of the Pillars. Another use for this Map is planning out Missions like the one we're going to discuss now," explained Baldwin.
"Indeed, the Missions you see us giving out to the members are all planned using this thing right here. We can't throw you youngsters in the fire and expect the Mission to be a success. Thus, we've got this to help strategize and mark out areas that would be dangerous."
"And if you want to focus on a particular Domain such as the Briton Domain..."
Raiyen went over to the Crystal and touched the image of the Briton Domain. Then, the Map Crystal picture changed. Now, the entire table was showing the 27 districts of Briton, and all color-coded in various colors to differentiate between each area.
Bryan pointed to the completely blacked-out area with a white cross.
"I'm guessing this is the Prisoners' Den. Even the Arks doesn't have access to this place..." said Bryan, glancing at the Founders for approval.
"Frankly speaking, I wouldn't want access to that area either. It's filled with nasty people, but I am surprised a rich guy lives there," replied Raiyen, trembling.
Everyone nodded as Mavislin walked closer to the Slayer and Map Crystal. The Valkyrie then went to touch the entire Domain with both palms, causing a giant holographic sheet to pop up. Several words popped up in a foreign language, according to Bryan.
"Mavislin is reading the data in Latin, so I don't blame you for not understanding. But what she's looking at is the names of people and their status within the Briton Domain for the past month," explained Baldwin, as Bryan was lost on what was going on.
