Chapter 737 Pre-Treatment Talk
"That technique is a danger, master. We must find it and destroy it!" Torne warned Vicente, feeling what terror it would be to have an opponent capable of getting stronger by sacrificing magicians of an opposite path.",
"Yes..." Vicente agreed as he remembered the situation his group had encountered on their journey to the north of the continent.
"That member of the Congregation of Revelations who attacked us months ago probably wanted to sacrifice me to strengthen him," Vicente said, making Torne and Onyx think back to that day.
"Indeed. He seemed more interested in your pentagrams than fearful. I've never seen a reaction like his before," Onyx commented, remembering that day well.
"The question that remains to be answered is how did that guy find us?" Torne asked as he looked at Lauren, seeing that she knew things they were in the dark about.
And indeed, Lauren had that answer. "The gems got from the temples of the Congregation of Revelations have trackers on all of them. Each person who awakens their magical powers in one temple on the continent has a special record in the main temple, and in the temple in which they awakened their powers.
The record of the main temple contains only the method of locating that magician, while the temple where the awakening took place contains personal information, such as the form and talent associated with the gem."
Vicente frowned deeply. "Can that actually happen? How can they trace an essence that is totally in the control of the magician connected to it?"
"Totally?" Lauren laughed. "Only Paragons or stronger magicians can fully master their powers. Until one becomes a 5th stage magician, the Congregation of Revelations can follow the traces left by the 5th grade spell used on every gem left in the temples."
"Shit! Fucking Congregation of Revelations! That's why the continent has lacked powerful Dark Path magicians for so long! They probably killed those who proved to be too talented!" Torne said in a harsh tone, feeling his non-existent heart beating faster.
One might think that the numbers of Dark Path magicians on the continent weren't that low. After all, sects like Nixlas' Shadows existed until recently. But on a continent where there were hundreds of powerful and many sects and clans, organizations like Lauren's could be counted on the fingers of one's hands.
