Chapter 1304 - Bloodlines and Powers (Part 2)

"I may be weaker and less well-equipped than you, but in my lair, I need but a snap of my fingers to summon the entire Council. Can you do the same?"

Crevan opened and closed his mouth, having no way to retort. He was damn good at his job, but being in three places at the same time wasn’t part of his skillset. On top of that, he had never joined the Council, considering them nothing but a bunch of weaklings.

Yet Crevan’s pride lay in not having ever failed his mother, not in boasting about his strength like a tavern thug.

"No, I can’t." He closed his eyes for a second, letting his bright violet aura seep out of his body.

His shadow gained a third dimension that quickly turned into a similarly dressed woman that bore a striking resemblance to Crevan. The phenomenon happened again, but this time another man came out.

With the arrival of each new guest, Faluel felt the annoying chill of fall turning into the pleasant warmth of spring as if their presence alone made the Trawn woods a brighter place.

"What was that?" Leegaain asked in surprise. Only Guardians could cross such a long distance without a Warp Array, yet the dimensional perturbance he had felt was akin to that of a simple Blink spell.

"One of the powers of our bloodline." Crevan said. "It allows us to share a mind link even from afar and to become each other’s dimensional beacon. We call it Call of the Blood." _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}

"I’ll protect your disciples, Lenanna will take care of the village, and Jhet of the villagers. Are three of us enough?" Each Phoenix gave Faluel a deep bow the moment Crevan introduced them.

"Plenty enough. Let’s go, Gramps. I’m all yours now." Faluel gave them the thumbs up and dragged Leegaain back inside her lair, where she set up the Warp Array closest to the Flying Griffon.

The moment they left, the three Phoenixes Blinked in unison, surrounding the dimensional crevice from where Tezka the Fylgja hid to protect Zinya’s home unnoticed.

While a dimensional amulet created a sub-space where time stood almost still, a dimensional crevice was a small pocket of space stretched by magic, similar to a very small Fringe, that allowed the Warg-Eldritch Hybrid to hide in plain sight.

The dimensional rift connecting the pocket with the outside world was the size of a pinhole and in the case a dimensional sealing array was cast, it would allow him to choose between sealing himself in or coming out to fight.

It was one of the peaks that dimensional magic could achieve, something the existence of which very few people were aware. Hence seeing his pocket space forcefully ripped open left the Fylgja unpleasantly surprised.

"Don’t think that your tricks can fool us, little fox. Are you friend or foe?" Lenanna, the only woman in the group asked.

"Don’t think that I’m scared of a bunch of hatchlings, young sparrow." Tezka said as all of his ten tails brimmed with power. "If I meant harm, this place would have been reduced to a wasteland way before your arrival."

The members of the nest were flabbergasted by the Abomination knowing their mother’s secret origin, yet nothing transpired from their faces. On top of that, every single tail but one held enough power to harm them.

Unfortunately for Tezka, the atrophied incarnation of his mastery over Spirit Magic wouldn’t have killed a fly.

"I can’t deal with you without compromising our mission so I’ll take your word at face value, for now." Crevan said. "Don’t get in our way and we’ll return the favor."

’I must tell Bytra to move her a.s.s and craft like there’s no tomorrow.’ He thought.
