The people led by Magister Amos hurried to Elder Flock.
The old man was breathing haggardly, fear present in his eyes.
"Elder Flock, what happened? Did that young man betray you?", Magister Jaggos worriedly asked.
"No, I was the one who betrayed myself.", Elder Flock replied.
His words confused the others. What sort of self-betrayal did he commit? And how would that happen in the first place?
"Magister Amos, you are in charge of the next Vortex Ascendancy, right?", Elder Flock asked.
"Uh, yes, Elder Flock, but what's the matter?", Magister Amos gulped.
"Heavenly Magic Academy."
Elder Flock stood up and dusted his robe. This made them confused even further, thinking that Elder Flock must have lost his mind and was unable to come up with complete sentences.
Despite their reactions, Elder Flock smiled and left the area.
