"What is a young and cute thing like you doing here? I am sure my target was supposed to be older than you."
Elysia took small and hesitant steps into the alley, only to hear the voice taunting her. The dark alley made it impossible to see more than a few meters ahead, but that was not all.
The darkness also hid the feeling of magic surrounding Elysia. She knew that there was magic around her but Elysia could not access any of it.
Heck, she could not even access her magic.
"Oi, what should we do now? Should we kill her? Master would be so angry that we failed to capture our target."
Elysia had to guess where the speaker was standing but it was next to impossible. The alley was echoing the voice all around, making it difficult to track the source of that voice.
"Kill her? Of course not. We should capture her and take her back. We cannot go back empty-handed or master would kill us." The same voice yelled back.
