Felix let out a big sigh of frustration. "You know, we sort of are fugitives. Wanted criminals hunted by the arcanocracy. As of now, the arcanocracy does not know where we are. You probably took every precaution leaving here and returning, but that will not work forever. There are spells that can track manawave through teleportation. It requires some sensitive equipment. Special sensory arrays in conjunction with the actual spell. The reason why I chose this location, the redwoods was two fold. One was because of the natural geological ley-lines located here, and two was because the arcanocracy does not have permission by Academia to place the sensory arrays for their teleportation tracking technology here." Felix gulped down some more coffee, "The thing is, there are only a few locations that are dark to the arcanocracy. These areas include such places as the are controlled by the witch hunters Salem, Massachusetts. Israel, Mecca, parts of India and of China. Because there are so few places that are dark to the detection of the arcanocracy, it would not be that hard to track us down from there. Fortunately enough the spell requires immediate action on the part of the user, they only have about a fifteen minute window from when we port out to track us. In every instance we have come into contact with them, we have been victorious, either killing them, or sending them back first with their tails between their legs. But if we grow sloppy, that could be the end of us." Felix placed his elbows on the table and folded his hands together resting his chin on his hands, "I'm telling you this because we need to lay low. Every moment we are outside the protection of the wards of this place we increase the risk of being discovered. So, please be more careful in the future. I am not going to stop you from leaving this place as you will, but know you risk the lives of everyone here each time you do."
With that said, Felix dispersed the paper back into his manadial and got up from the table. He placed the dishes he used in the sink, retrieved the rest of the pot of coffee they were drinking from and began to walk towards the lab. "Come find me in the lab when you are done eating, Travis. We need to finish our work today."
Raiya visibly shifted her body nervously at Nemo's comments. Raiya was particularly dense when it came to social situations, but even she was beginning to realize that Nemo's cordiality towards her was indeed abnormal, and that perhaps his infatuation with her could be dangerous. Raiya decided to tread very lightly and watch her step. Clearing her throat she said, "Well, uh- I certainly do appreciate the help. Saving the world is important and all, but there is only so much that I can sacrifice without it coming back to bite me. I have an ultimate goal that requires me to remain affiliated with the Yakuza. So, even if it really was your fault, you did me a solid." She said. Then quickly returned her gaze to her food and began to eat the rest of the rice, violently, in an attempt to hide her embarrassment.
