They walked towards the mage who communicated with them, and he explained what he saw as he drew their images using his earth magic on the ground.
"The bird looks similar to the vermillion race in legend. But what is that flying horse? we never saw that magical beast" said the leader of the mage, Rowan.
He was high level mage with golden robe and seven stars on it. The thin mage then explained about the travellers who saw a sword in ice and a cave where a single horned white horse was seen.
"What, a horse with a horn?" they were shocked to hear about a new type of beast. Everyone then quickly walked out of the town towards the cave.
As everyone walked out of the town, one person slowly walked into the town and in the opposite direction. As the person approached the gate there were two sentries still standing guard, however they were in deep discussions and looking up at the sky from time to time.
As the person approached one of the sentries walked forward, until before the commotion the gate was tightly monitored with 8 sentries. However, due to the magical beast appearance and rumors about the magical sword, only two were left.
The person quickly showed a red robe with five stars on it. The guard was little shocked as quickly bowed to the maze. Though he did not know if red was used for robes but the five stars on the robe showed the level of the person infront of him.
Before the sentry can say anything, the person threw a few gold coins at him and slowly walked out and disappeared into the distance.
"hahaha... it worked" the person was none other than Sachi she quickly summoned Pegasus from the space and flew away towards the mountain which is the last hurdle for their freedom.
Silverwind, as the name given to him flew with speed like a wind and quickly stepped on the mountain. Sachi wanted to look one last time at this place where she was born before leaving, so she got down from her mount. She took out the two posters which she grabbed while leaving the town and saw their pictures.
They were accurate for Lori and Sachi, however her face changed a lot after she became the owner of rebirth island. It will be little tough at first look now to match her with the previous face. However, if they looked carefully, they could match it. But she did not give the sentries' time to see her face as she scared them just with the stars on the robe.
Lori also came out of the space with Queen on her shoulder and they looked towards the Rimus Empire and Poalm mansion for one last time, because they did not know when they will be back after leaving now or if they will ever be able to return.
From afar they were able to see people surrounding the cave and a fight between the beasts and mages.
Lori sighed and went back to the space. Sachi mounted Silverwind and dived down from the mountain. They maintained low altitude and flew to the other side entering the Finla Empire.
As they left the mountain, they did not see two small elf kids coming out from below the mountain.
They have escaped danger with ease, it was truly a miracle. It was very smooth that Sachi and Lori were unable to believe their luck.
As she moved forward, she felt her body becoming lite. She felt like some invisible shackles leaving her. Without knowing Sachi was under a lot of pressure due to the marriage and about her father, however now they loosened up as she stepped onto the new land.
After sometime, Lori came out of the space along with Queen to enjoy the ride with her daughter.
Suddenly there was a screech in the sky, a huge shadow covered both Lori and Sachi.
When they looked up, they saw a gold and red bird with two heads looking at them.
***********
The next day, they reached a county and stopped to get something to eat and then to clean themselves as they were travelling for 5 days. They rented a room in the county.
After taking a bath, they jumped on the bed. As they lay there looking at the ceiling Sachi asked "Mom, you never told me your level?"
"You never asked" she replied smiling.
"I was quite shocked that you had a five-star robe when you showed it to me first time."
Sachi used her mother's robes when they were escaping the last town. "Actually, we are very lucky?" said Lori.
"Huh, why?" Sachi asked puzzled. She turned around to look at her mother.
"The robes and stars are actually given by the Maze and Witch Union. And our continent has three empires, so we have three colors for lower levels until 5 stars representing the country. They are Blue for Rimus, Red for Finla and Yellow for Mican.
From level 6 everyone is actually gold. It doesn't matter which empire or continent you are from. So, we can say we got lucky that the guard did not enquire or stop us as he was shocked by seeing the number of stars."
Sachi laughed after hearing the explanation. Yes, they were really lucky on this journey. Except for the border town it can be said to be smooth sailing for them.
Even she did not understand her luck. When she thought about her previous life and now, this was the easiest one. It all happened after the phoenix system entered her life.
However, she has to see how long this will last, she knows from experience that good and happy days won't last long. There will be difficult times as well.
She prayed that it won't arrive soon atleast not until she helps her mom reach her family.
"Ding!" Suddenly a system notification sounded "congratulations for introducing two new magical races to the world. You have been granted a wish and awarded 3000 gold coins."
Sachi was dumbstruck by the notification "So this can also happen?"
"WOW!"
"As you have previously wished a panel with earth items, it has been introduced to your system configuration" the system voice sounded in Sachi's mind.
