The day that Talia was waiting for arrived. That night the full moon shone bright. Dinner was over, and Talia assumed that the group selection process started after dinner. He immediately returned to the dormitory and looked for the black robe he used to sneak out.
“This is it,” Talia muttered as she lifted her robe that had a large head covering.
The girl immediately put on the robe and covered her face tightly. Not to forget he brought the missing Crystal to be able to get out of the dorm without being caught. Token shaped rabbit gold-eyed pomegranate stone also he cantongi, for what will be.
After all the preparations were done, Talia grasped her blue crystal to dissipate herself. After making sure the situation outside her room was quiet, the girl began to sneak.
Talia did not meet many people throughout her journey. There were only a few children clustered in the second-floor hallway and the recreation room of the dormitory. Talia crept silently past the group of girls who were busy chatting before going to bed. It seems they are second-rate students.
The most challenging thing in Talia's dive was to open the dormitory's exit. The exit was directly across from the recreation room, where several children were chatting not far away. The dormitory door made a creaking noise that would definitely attract the attention of the children. Talia had to rack her brain to get out without being discovered.
The first thing he thought about was to distract the group of girls. Talia circulated her gaze looking for objects that could potentially attract attention. He also found a large flower pot that adorns the corner of the recreation room.
To be honest Talia did not want to damage the plant, but seeing from the shape of the leaves, Talia was sure that the pot contained Mandragona plants. The plant is very sensitive and the roots will scream when the leaves are touched or get shaken. Talia was able to walk out of the dormitory door after making that little commotion.
So while concentrating on her magic energy, Talia waved her hand towards the Mandragona plant pot. Talia made a gripping and unbroken movement, the pot broke into pieces, giving off a sound that shocked everyone. Talia used her ability to control the earth element and made the pot explode from within. Now the moist soil is scattered on the floor, following porcelain fragments from the pot.
The group of girls who were chatting in the corner of the room suddenly turned their eyes towards the broken pot. They were so shocked they could not speak. Shortly afterwards, the shrill screams of Mandragona's roots blaringly filled the dormitory. The students in the recreation room automatically closed both their ears because the sound was so painful. This is Talia's chance to escape. He slowly opened the dormitory door whose creaking sound was now lost to the screams of Mandragona's roots. Talia immediately slipped out without anyone realizing.
After successfully exiting the dormitory with a disappearing mode, the girl immediately shot towards the forbidden forest. The forest was behind the Beast Tamer Department building. Talia had to pass through the field by the lake side and cross towards the already dark Academy building.
Luckily the full moon shone brilliantly that night. The moonlight helped Talia to see the path she had to cross. Along the way, Talia did not meet many people. Talia only barely crossed paths with the guardian fauns as she passed near the Academy building. Pim Pruxen, the faun guard of the Alchemy Department seemed to be pacing back and forth in front of the academy building. Not far from there, Talia again meets Shif Gnolxot, the faun guard of the Beast Tamer Department near the forbidden forest.
After successfully avoiding the two fauns, Talia finally reached the lips of the forest. Talia paused for a moment. Even if he managed to get through the care of the two fauns, but the real problem started here.
The forbidden forest had a magic protector that could not be carelessly entered by an uninterested party. Talia was definitely not a person who could freely enter the forest. Aside from being a student of the Beast Tamer Department, Talia had never been given access to the forbidden forest. If he was reckless to do so, Talia would only be thrown back repeatedly out without successfully reaching more than two steps from the lips of the forest.
Talia sighed while thinking. Members of the association are unlikely to invite candidates to an impossible place. There must be some clue for Talia to pass through the magic barrier in this forbidden forest. Talia tries to think of all the information she got from Susan yesterday afternoon, and her mind is then fixed on the rabbit-shaped brooch sent to her through a mysterious letter.
Talia hastily reached into her pocket and took out the brooch.the golden color sparkled in moonlight, while the pink pomegranate embedded in the rabbit's eyes also looked brilliant. For a few seconds, Talia observed the token while thinking that maybe this thing was an item used to pass through the magic protector.
Taking that into consideration, Talia also pinned the rabbit brooch on her robe. Once perfectly installed, he began to step into the forest with more confidence.
The first step is nothing. Talia stepped back, twice, three times to deep into the forest. The journey was smooth, and he was not thrown back out of the forest. That means, Talia's guess is correct. The rabbit brooch was the key to access to enter the forbidden forest.
With a lighter heart, Talia continued her journey through the forest. Giant trunked trees grow tightly in the forest.Now moonlight can no longer illuminate Talia's path. He had to find his own forest path in the dark, almost invisible.
Talia had already released her grip on the disappearing Crystal. There was no one in the forest and Talia was already wearing a black robe that made her existence disguised. Even so, he was actually not too sure which way to go. The forest is too dark and misleading. There were no clues that Talia could follow. Moreover, he had also never entered the forbidden forest before.
In the midst of the turmoil, suddenly an arrow shot in front of Talia and stuck it in front of her feet. Talia screamed in shock and fell backwards.
“What the heck .. ,” his sigh with heart beating in shock.
