Chapter 4: Ch 004 The Mystery of Laraflora
The team is now back on course, they went from the moment they left. Nobe Mendelle now points to the mysterious land of Laraflora. Where the team now has a head start of investigating before the cataclysm happens.
"So Jiroshi, what were you two doing back on Earth." - Ichika Yuzejiwa
"Probably, something you can't afford to lose Ichika." - Tojo Mushiwara
"Haha, you still think I'm my teenager self easy to get flustered at your jokes huh Tojo." - Ichika Yuzejiwa
"But, could it be, my oh my, the Great Jiroshi Takageme still has not been able to marry the beauty." - Dentsu Jarogani
"Shut it Dentsu!" - Masaki Rikimori and Jiroshi Takageme
The team now questions where to start and King Rahamond has a surprise for them. It is about a Secret of Laraflora, it needs to be investigated. Magic seems to be a bit suspended, almost as if someone cultivating magic has been gobbling up all the cultivation. Resulting to massive influx of illogical thinking as magic seems to affect the consciousness of men, especially the essence of its mana. This frantic ability can be witnessed throughout the rest of the Empire.
The Vermillon Empire stretches througout many lands now of the continent. As such, had atested to many magic difficulties throughout all of the ancients. In this state, where there is an avalanche in the rise of magic cultivators, as they are pouring like far too many. Is also the cases of misgivings in cultivation practices. One of which is what is happening to the ones beautiful Laraflora, now destitute in energy and suffering from drought and disease. Who could it be sucking all of this life energy?
"The devastation is indeed strong in this place." - Dentsu Jarogani
"Spirits, consciousness, experiences, memories, and even their life essences were crushed and sucked." - Jiroshi Takageme
"Must be either a succubus, a psychic vampire, or even a literal vampire." - Nobe Mendelle
Considering the chances, it is likely a society of vampires sucking everything dry. The chances exist by the smell of the atmosphere that the vampires do exists. But knowing the scent of vampires to be gone, Jiroshi takageme suggests further investigation. There is still no miasma for which vampiric energy is visible.
"So are there signs that their spirits and at least their physical bodies were bitten?" - Ichika Yuzijiwa
"This child appears to be sucked by what seems to be a tongue attached to the solar plexus." - Jiroshi Takageme
"A spirit attack of the tongue? Seems to be vampiric in nature, have to test the spiritual saliva just not to mistake it as a ghoul." - Nobe Mendele
"Chances of infection?" - Dentsu Jarogani
"High, highly likely that everyone here has a familiar of the undead, they are infected no less. Before that happens, we need to cure them. But first, let us identify this sucking little creature. Shall we?" - Nobe Mendelle
"It is a synthesis of two apparent energies, one of ghoul and the other vampire." - Jiroshi Takageme
"Likely a hybrid." - Masaki Rikimori
Upon investigation, they discovered something similar to the future for which had crushed them. There are now spawns of the undead, unfavorable to them, and unnoticed by them in the future of a past. They were blindsided by the power struggle they did not realize this.
"Jiroshi, contact King Rahamond in the crystal, tell him its bigger than the power struggle back there in the palace of Anasthellia. It is an undead uprising by much caliber ever seen throughout the Empire of Vermillon. It is an undead outbreak." - Nobe Mendelle
"My King, we owe you this meeting by giving a report. The lands and residents of Laraflora had been infected with massive contamination and infection of the undead. We request moves to clear up the infection before they are to be activated into a transformation into undead. They are to be quarantined and enforced procedural medication to allow the resurrection from the dead to the living." - Jiroshi Takageme
"Will creation magic have to be used to recreate the living from the undead?" - King Rahamond
"Yes, but purifying, and sometimes separating the spirit of the undead is key?" - Jiroshi Takageme
"Can they be saved?" - King Rahamond
"Let me take over Jiroshi." - Nobe Mendelle
"Yes my King, it happened in the past, it is happening again. I recall of my time that this happened, it was cured by what seems to be a margin of error brought forth by extensive research but nonetheless, was a success." - Nobe Mendelle
"Okay, very well, that it all that matters." - King Rahamond
"Good-bye your majesty!" - All while kneeling right leg and bowing.
With the growing tensions in the borders again, they make haste to make the report. So that, the Military uprising in the borders have to be sustained as well without any distractions.
