Warmth, was the first thing he was grateful about going through the portal, then he heard something about a teammate being gravely injured, it was Jacklo from what he understood, but luckily he survived. Max’s bottle was a good way to cheer up the mood, the mission was a success even if the kid died. Azai saw a new member that was with the combat team, Cassandra was her name but he could feel a dark vibe from her, like the manipulative vibe, he always tried to keep his distance from such women for many reasons…

Azai raised his glass with others, finished his drink quickly and went to his desk for his real delight, ignoring any kind of socializing. It was something that no one knew about him, he was interested in magic induced herbs, he had a dealer that he knew for a long time who provided him with these herbs. His real reason for taking such things was lost a long time ago, and it was now purely for the high of it. In his desk there was one herb that he hid in a secret compartment in his drawer, he grabbed the leaf and rolled it to fit in his mouth and swallowed it. Its effect was immediate, it didn’t have the normal symptoms that made one unable to interact with his surroundings, but it gave him a rush in his brain uplifting his mood and his brain energy, taking off his mind of any type of negative emotions that he went through and just focusing on his job or anything else…

He sat on his chair, gazing through his window thinking and waiting to for the debriefing or to hear something about Jacklo’s condition he wanted to make sure he was okay, he really cared about him..

Not many thoughts crossed Azai’s head about the kid mage who is probably suffering in hell, it was an expected end for one who delves too deep and too ignorant in demonology, although he wished that he could’ve saved him. But his mind was now filled with questions about this demon, no exorcism took place which would mean that this demon is still on the loose somewhere. But nothing could be done now, and yet another incident that strengthened his opinion about his choice of career and his thoughts about the dangers of magic…

The situation was clear now and everyone seemed to be dabbling around the place, Azai was examining the cold aura of this ice magic, it reminded him of his monochrome aura, yet it didn’t have that deathly chill. He looked around in some of the tomes that Coal was leaving behind, his collecting habit had kicked in, in the sight of many tomes. He grabbed one in particular about the application and combining of ice arcanology, he had an experiment in mind he wanted to try with this element to try and create yet another deathly spell…

Hellbeak arrived opening a portal arriving through it was Markiel, telling the team to head back to HQ and resting and leaving the debrief for later, it wasn’t a bad idea he needed to get out of this cold because it was building up and soon he had to use magic to withstand it. But he walked towards Coal and patted him on the shoulder ”Good job Coal, you did relatively well for your first mission, just be more careful next time.” he smiled as he walked away.

Shocked was the least he could feel right now, why did Coal threw that gem like that? Even if it’s not magical it could have some DNA trace or fingerprints, Azai could only hope that it wasn’t gone now. He looked at Coal calmly taking a deep breath suppressing his shock and frustration ” Coal if you have seen any cop show, you would know that you should not throw evidence like that. Just think it over next time... “ As he walked towards the gem bagging it for evidence ” Well we could do that, but first we have to report to HQ and hand out what we found in here. Don’t worry we will know who did this soon enough, so for now let’s check up on Lenya and Max.” He took a look back at the letters, and they gave him the notion that this was a typical runaway kid, with bad parents the kind that saw their son as a failure for his unique interests, so he must’ve worked hard in any way possible to prove them wrong, but at the end he had given up, and maybe that’s when he acquired his magic and was unable to explain it to them, or maybe he was he had given up on words and decided to action to prove them wrong, yet there is also regret and apology. Azai got to a conclusion as he was walking towards the stairs. Felix isn’t necessarily a bad guy, he seemed more like a guy with concussions but there must’ve been an important point when he decided to go down this path, maybe some kind of influence. Maybe a coven or something like that. But these was all theories but the truth will be known eventually.

Just as Azai was stepping forward towards the stairs he felt something strange, using his enhancement to raise his hearing and smell senses he heard someone talking in Hebrew a language he learned in his travels then it spoke in the common language ” Hurry Coal, I have a bad feeling about that energy coming from downstairs, and my hunch is very good. Be ready for anything. “ He hurried towards the basement, only to see that it was a shadow but what did it want exactly? It said something about a haunt, Azai looked around with his altered senses and was able to make a quick sweep about what was happening. He saw manga and tomes about advanced magic especially ice magic, tomes he wanted to acquire and learn their knowledge and finally add it to his collection, yet it was a shock that a novice mage was able to do such feat, was it luck maybe? And the manga was also another surprise for him. He saw an alchemy circle on the ground his alchemy equations were not that good, but he could make some sense from it was also a very dangerous magic. This was the kind of magic that he wanted to stop, also making him join this organization. Back to Azai there was a bigger chance for his theory to be right but he didn’t think that manga would be enough to make him do what he did, but that shadow and his portal certainly there was some kind of messed up demonology. Azai finished his sweep in seconds just before he ran towards Max standing in front of him enhancing his mind ready for any sudden moves it could make.

Grabbing the tiny safe Azai was interested in it, he held it in his hand and looked again at the top floor. Everything was destroyed, and it seems who ever lived here was long gone and traveled light with only important belongings, the traps he saw could indicate that there was a child living here, a mage child. He looked down at the safe in his hand and tried to break the lock by enhancing his hands, but the safe seemed magical too and can withstand heavy force. He placed his hand on the lock and chanted a minor decaying spell which was also resisted ” Figures, and if use more powerful spell on it I might ruin what’s inside. This needs a delicate touch, could Coal get it open without ruining it? But more importantly why would someone leave something like this behind after having the trouble of fortifying it like this? Well I’ll try something using more force and if it fails I’ll have to take it back to HQ “ Azai was watching Coal as he was lost in thoughts, who was with all his mistakes was trying to do his best.

He walked away from the closet just a couple steps and placed the safe on the ground and placed his right hand, the one that had his gauntlet, on the tiny safe. His spell monochrome was activated and he was slowly raising its strength, the lock was still unaffected by the time the ground around it started to show signs of molding and decaying, ” This won’t do I need to one last surge or the ground will decay and spread to the rest of the floor “ Azai gave it a last surge the lock was decaying finally but it was getting harder to keep it focused on that tiny lock, he crossed his fingers and hoped this works. The lock finally broke and the wooden floor managed to stay intact somehow ” Coal I think I found something come take a look” He didn’t want to make Coal feel left out so he called him to join, and see what they found…
