Chereads / Capti In Fabula Dei / Chapter 2 - Antique

Chapter 2 - Antique

The two arrived at an old, creaky shop. "What are we here for again?" Elias exchanged glances with Noah, "I lost my map, and you know Ousia is big." Ousia? Elias didn't know this 'Ousia' thing, however- because of his precise action, he chose cautiousness over curiousity because he still needs to figure out how this world works and this mysterious man; Noah.

They stepped over the nailed planks, not a suprise to the detective. They were greeted by an old man, "ah Noah, finally you came" the man exclaimed. Noah bowed down, holding his maroon cap in his chest. Elias was a few inches behind, his guard is up. "Well, what do you need?" "I just need a map, and some snacks please" Noah strolled around the shop.

While the two have a conversation, Elias pulled a lilac laced journal and wrote with his pen. "I'm fine for now, but my surroundings are still abnormal and unclear."

"Is that all?" "Also, tell the princess I won't be able to report to her for a while" Noah waved while they exit the creepy store, "got it!"

"You guys seem close" Elias put up a happy/neutral facade to not look obvious. "Just an old friend, want some" he gestured Elias to eat chips with him, "no thanks, i'm still full."

Elias looked around, "where are heading to now?" "Taigah, the kingdom of the warriors" Noah replied.

What the hell did I get myself into, a kingdom!? Am I living in a picture book now!? Elias straightened his smile, "oh- can you give me more information about this- so called kingdom?" Noah kept munching on his chips, "this kingdom is one of the 6 kingdoms, Taigah is ruled by a queen, 'Freya Taihnya'-I have to get another kingdom but this kingdom is the shortest way to get to another then another."

6 KINGDOMS!? Elias jaw dropped, he cleared his throat, another problem. When will I get home-?

Elias rubbed his eyes, "woah" he was mezmerised by the landscape, the gate was paved with gold and shappire paint. Jewels and knight scatered around like ants. "This is it" Noah stated, he talked to one of the guards, the security nodded and opened the gate allowing the two to enter.
