Brook's spiritual power spread out in the whole library, controlling the pivot of the magic circles, commanding the tower guard, supervising the defense of Allyn, and watching over the big picture of the whole City in the Sky. He could not spare much of his attention to the archmage. So, he asked from far away, "What happened?"
How could he have neglected any accident in the City in the Sky when he controlled the city defense?
The archmage said quickly, "A few members of the Highest Council who should've returned did not return!"
While saying, he walked into the library in a panic, but Brook was too occupied to remove the defense circle. He simply asked, "Who didn't come back?"
"There are…" The archmage spoke something, but suddenly, he lunged forward. His body became blurry and twisted, as if it was jumbled by streaks of light in different colors.
Zi, Zi, Zi.
