Merlin closed the book.
The dark spot under her eyes visible as she sat on the ground, resting her back against the bad frame.
In front of her was Terra, playing with empty bottles of potions like she was a kid - mentally, one could say she was.
Leaving that, Merlin gave out a sigh.
She had been reading old books about demon lords and sacrifices, trying to figure out where and how they would take place.
Since for them to complete the ritual they needed a powerful artifact with large amounts of magical energy, Merlin was calm, knowing that would be difficult for them to find.
According to what Ha Joon told her, he had stationed knights and guards in all the key areas housing any type of powerful artifact within the kingdom, most of which were in Telver. And he did the same to the trade routes where they could potentially try to smuggle guns.
"We are safe for now. This damn demon thing is so stressful."
