"Did Hikari give you the information on the Snake Lizards?" Angele questioned in a light tone.

"She did. Snake Lizards live in the caves around the cliffs. There will be around 20 of them in an average-sized patrol team. A Snake Lizard is about two meters tall and its intelligence is very high. Although they haven't developed written language yet, most of them can speak. Well, anyway, they will attack the airships. That's for sure," Reyline explained.

"We're just food to them." Angele shook his head.

The two remained silent for a minute.

"Green, I'm sorry. I think it's my fault." Reyline opened his mouth again.

Angele did not reply right away. He sighed and slowly spoke.

"I checked the storages of all three airships. I have the amulet, but it has taken me some time to unlock those rooms with magic stones inside. Do you know what I found? Take a guess."

Reyline did not respond, as he probably already knew the truth.

Angele sneered. "Three airships! Not one single magic stone can be found in the storage rooms. You are also hiding something from us. All the wizards on the airships are weak. Just spit it out already."

"You're right. They want me to die on the trip. It's a death trap, to be honest. The wizards on the airships were all recommended by the elders of the Six Ring High Tower...except...you. I don't know anything about you."

"So even if we can return to Nola, there'll be assassins waiting for us, right?" Angele went straight to the point.

"That's possible."

"What about Omandis then? What if we somehow survived the trip? Will there be people waiting for us too?"

"I don't know." Reyline lowered his voice.

Angele recalled the day Ander told him about the information.

Ander should have already known that it was a death trap, but Angele did not understand why the Dark Wizard Tower did not inform him about the situation.

Stigma was an outsider to Nola and he would never be selected under normal circumstances. Reyline was probably the only wizard important to the organization on the airship but he was the target.

"Whatever. We have already survived the Cloud Bee area. We will see how it goes." Angele calmed down. "Get ready and do what Stigma said. Soak yourself in water and breathe using a straw. The Snake Lizards might just let us go."

Angele cut off the communication. He walked to the window, then he crouched and hid under the windowsill. He held the amulet tight in his hand and slowly closed his eyes.

Countless blue light dots gathered around Angele's body, turning into drops of water.

The water drops merged and formed a large water ball.

Silver metal liquid leaked out of Angele's body, creating a large bathtub. It fitted the dropping water ball perfectly.

Angele moved into the bathtub and lied down. He then created a metal straw and stuck it out of the surface of the water.

The room was silent.

Time was flying.

*Ka-ta Ka-ta*

Angele suddenly heard some strange noise from outside the window.

It sounded like wings that were made of metal.
