Yes, this was the same person who the leader mentioned before, the 'Evildarian' was the possession given to the most powerful psychic in the group. The Black world people respected the Evildarian and did things according to his advice.
" Evildarian, it is time for you to die."
The previous voice echoed again, making his follower faint on spot. The power squeezing his neck slowly decreased but the voice echoed through the cave making his hair stand out.
" How is this possible? The third leader had already killed that witch sacrificing his ultimate power. Then how can she be alive ?"
The Evildarian had never set his foot outside the cave for the past four years but now he couldn't help to break his vow as he had to meet the leaders as soon as possible. For all the heinous sins he did, never once had he felt guilty about it but that voice made him lose all his pride over his power because once that woman had created havoc in their world, even the whole black world was on the verge of complete destruction. Then it was the third leader who plotted against her and killed her mercilessly but it did cost him, ninety per cent of his life.
" It means she is not dead. I must inform the leaders right away."
Leaving the follower on the ground, the Evildarian walked quickly towards the leader's mansion. By this time, Alex and Emmy had followed the shrieking sound and saw one person coming out of the wall of creepers.
Seeing a person having a strange appearance with all the multi-coloured beads hanging over him, coming out from the dense forest made both of them surprised. Emmy suddenly took Alex's hands and hid behind a large tree.
The Evildarian whose mind was in frenzy now, couldn't detect the presence of two people behind the large tree. After making sure that there was no other person around their vicinity, Alex decided to check the wall of creepers with Emmy.
Passing through the wall, they saw it was actually a cave and a man lying down there. Emmy quickly took something from her bag and pressed it over that man's nose. Suddenly, he flinched but after that, there was no movement at all.
" What was that ?"
Alex was petrified seeing her actions, it was like she had prior experience. Seeing his reaction, Emmy wanted to laugh out loud, but in the situation they were, she decided to skip the explanation part.
"Kiara gave it to me to use in an emergency situation, this herb would actually knock out a person for some time. Quick, let us search, what is this place by the way?"
Even if Alex didn't like the intrusion of those women into their group, her techniques deeply impressed him. Alex and Emmy didn't waste any more time, they quickly searched each and every corner of the cave. They didn't find anything much interesting until Alex discovered something wrong with the fire pit. He looked at the pit and found it had a small area underneath the bricks. He removed two bricks which revealed a small lever when pulled, it opened a tiny compartment revealing some spiritual texts and a journal.
Emmy quickly collected those items safely and they placed the bricks just as it was before. Before the dusk, both of them returned to the inn, happy with the loot.
Arriving at the inn, the other pairs had already returned. Each of them had a lot of things to share. So Juliet started her piece first, " Nothing special happened at the leader's mansion till there was an entry of some strange man. The leaders addressed him as an elder, so I couldn't get a hold of his identity. But the things he said were really strange. He mainly mentioned two things, first, the leader's most wanted enemy had set foot on this land and the other was much weirder."
" What was the second thing?" Janet curiously asked.
" He just said the witch is back to kill them."
Juliet's style of portraying things made it thrilling for the ones who were hearing her out. They were more intrigued by the strange man now but his identity was unknown. However, the next pair was Houlson and Kiara, they thought they didn't find much but after hearing Juliet, Kiara was sure of one thing. She started to show some hand signs which only two people understood.
Before Eliza could translate, Houlson explained it well, "Today when we were roaming around the leader's mansion, she thought that she had seen a familiar person but since the chances of seeing that person was very low, she left it out. hearing what Juliet said, it is clear, that she was correct. There is only one person in this black world who is addressed as an elder by the leaders, it is the Evildarian. The most powerful psychic of this place."
Suddenly Jordan interrupted, " Is it a tall old man wearing an irregular pattern of dressing with a huge amount of bead accessories ?"
Kiara nodded earnestly making Janet and Jordan more excited.
" We saw this person while returning to the inn, he was walking quickly and murmuring someone was coming to end his happiness. We took notice of him because people were giving him the way and bowing their head in front of him. But honestly, I thought he was just a mad man."
Alex and Emmy looked at each other, it was amazing that even if all of them went to separate places, they all found out clues pointing to the same person. Alex explained what they found out today while Emmy silently kept their findings on the table.
Seeing the spiritual texts on the table, Kiara's blood began to boil, she clenched her fists and banged at the stone slab nearby with all her might. Everyone including Eliza was stunned watching the silent Kiara's violent behaviour.
Houlson quickly stopped her, she looked terrified when he held her hands.. However, he slowly comforted her and soon she was crying in his embrace.
