Chereads / The First Mage / Chapter 67 - Chapter 66

Chapter 67 - Chapter 66

"Come on, let's get to our rooms."

"Oh, yeah. Let's go, everyone."

"So… Room. 353 to 356. Come it's in the underground rooms."

"Underground?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Nothing…"

They walked for a bit to a seemingly unsolvable maze that is the hallway. They could see many corridors on each side of them which lead to the rooms.

After the end of the hallway which takes them a few minutes to reach.

"That hallway was way too long."

A soldier said

"I know. Bear with it. But it is not really a problem for everyone though."

"Really? We're extremely exhausted. We may be soldiers but that is..."

"Soldiers?"

"Oh. We are sorry about that."

Williams immediately stepped in.

"What are you doing, soldier?"

"It's no big deal. Even if you're up to no good here. You won't last a second. I already had this hunch before, I simply just had confirmation now."

"No... That's not what you think…"

"Alright. It's fine."

"Really?"

"I don't have to judge you. No matter where you came from and those weird things you are carrying. I am no longer shocked and am accepting and help you here. Don't worry."

"Thank you. I see. But why are you not shocked before? Your friends over there look shocked seeing our things"

"I had enough shock in my life. Just the time when a man became a King and showing his might within a year is enough."

"I feel like we need to meet this King."

"No. He's quite busy. But I can't bring your whole force. Only you and me. Is that alright?"

"Yes."

"Alright. We had to go on for now."

"Eh?"

Ding!

"An…"

"Get in."

"Can that support this many of us?"

"Yeah. This could support a thousand passengers. Get inside."

"Elevator…"

After then. They got inside and went underground.

Meanwhile at the command center.

"This city is vast professor. Is this really the work of a single man?"

"If magic exists on that planet. Then that really is possible. You sure had access to the secret researches, right?"

"What I am thinking of however, is that… How large this planet really is?"

"We did not have a good estimate before. As it is still being studied. But if we were to examine it for now. It seems to be more than five times bigger than the earth. It also seems like less than 70% of the surface area is land. So it makes sense."

"Yeah. Hope they finished the study about the geometry of the planet."

"Yeah. We also had our job to do these things."

"Excuse me, professor."

"Yes?"

"How do you think that our communication with them is instantaneous?"

"In all actuality. I don't know. That planet is 600 million light-years from us. I can't grasp how it is done. But we should be thankful for it I guess."

"What if? There is a phenomenon that exceeds the speed of light in communication?"

"Surely. That is not it. Is it?"

"I am not sure myself professor. But if I were to theorize… Quantum entanglement."

"What are you talking about? That think is… Impossible."

"Is it really, though?"

"I like the idea of Quantum entanglement. But… I don't think that is the case. I don't think that would work on planets."

"Then I guess there is another force working behind the scenes. Could it be also magic?"

"Excuse me! What if… Our worlds are connected by magic? Isn't that?"

"Yeah! He's right professor! We witnessed it just by the use of it from mutants! What if this force is able to affect planets itself?"

"Like I said before the project. We don't have the real proof so we had to trust the exploration team to do the work properly and collect data and samples. They are working hard."

"Yeah… The professor is right."

"Alright then! Get back to your works."

They then arrived at the underground floors after a few minutes.

"This place is so huge."

"What do you expect? This is the pavilion created by the Mage King himself. Of course, it would be enormous."

They walked the hallway and went left to the 8th corridor. After then they arrived at a series of doors and found their designated ones.

"Cerrio, Galar, and Ramus. Please guide them to their rooms first."

"Yes, leader."

"Alright."

The two guide the soldiers and divided them into three rooms. Captain Williams then went on with the first group.

After coming inside. They instantly saw an enormous room filled with luxury furniture pieces.

"Wow. Are all rooms like this?"

"Yes. You must be tired. Go ahead and rest first, please. You could put your things away now. You could also change your clothes with those at the wardrobe over there. There are also clothes for women there but since all of you are males then please don't mind it."

"Ah. Yeah. Thank you…"

"Cerrio."

"Yeah, yeah. I am sorry I forgot."

"It's fine, haha. I don't mind it."

"Well. Only me is the one who introduced my name before. Please get to know my men. Although the other twenty are guided at different rooms."

"Alright then. It's nice to meet you, everyone. I am Cerrio, a ten-star adventurer. Even though my name is introduced earlier. I still wish to introduce myself."

Everyone then introduced themselves to him including Jake.

"That should wrap things up. Please have a rest first. I will be going back to our leader."

"Yes. Thank you."

A knock then came on the door which Cerrio opens. An extremely beautiful woman shows up behind the door that seems to be a staff here.

"Taga-sama said that you need to bond your luggages before so I came here to do so."

"Ah. Alright, go inside."

Everyone is overwhelmed due to the woman's beauty.

"Can you please put your luggages here and tell me who their owners are so that I could bond them with you?"

Everyone snapped out of it when the staff asked.

"Y, yes! I'll be the first."

A soldier said and immediately goes in front of her with his bag full of samples for the scientists. Though the woman doesn't need to see it's inside as a policy.

After then everyone formed a line and waits patiently for bonding their things and to see this woman up close.

"They really are soldiers, huh? Even though they are charmed they still moved accordingly."

"Y, yeah. They really are."

"Sadly to say Jake-san. There is no prostitution happening within the Magedom as every person of gender has a proper paying job. Even kids above seven years could get a good-paying job, you know? The King hates prostitution that it is one of the first ten laws imposed when the Magedom is created."

"Eh? Really?"

"Yeah. That is because the country has a good and powerful ruler.

After bonding every luggages to the building and the owners. The woman then goes out after saying goodbye.
