Chapter 666 Magic Door

Chapter 666 Magic Door

The Noble who had run out so suddenly when Wolfe offered to help his daughter ran back in with one of the maids, carried in his arms like she was a sack of cloth and not a squirming person.

"Here she is. Fix her." The Demon insisted.

The maid was terrified and confused, dusted with flour from the kitchens, and looking around in fear of what was going to happen to her after she was pulled away from her work and into the social function for dignitaries.

"You can relax, nobody is going to get mad at you for being here. That man, who we can assume is your father, wanted me to help you with your growth. Now, I don't really specialize in growth, but I can help if your mana system has some damage." Wolfe explained.

She nodded wordlessly, and Wolfe began the process. As expected, there was a blockage in her mana system, similar to what the Witches were born with, a form of bloodline curse that stopped her from advancing. Chart your course back to the origins of this substance at n0v^lbin

"Does this often happen to the women in your family?" Wolfe asked.

"All of them. The women of the family are all worthless, barely fit to be servants." The father insisted.

"Did you perhaps upset someone, or did your predecessor? Because from what I can see, it's a bloodline curse that is stopping the women of your family from advancing. If you want it to stop completely, then you're going to have to solve whatever is causing it.

Even if I repair the damage to your daughter today, there is no guarantee that the problem won't return if the one who cast the curse still maintains the intent to keep it active." Wolfe explained.

That sort of scenario usually meant that they wanted something from you, but since she had been literally carried here by her father, she assumed that it was safe to assume that he would be paying whatever the price had been for her treatment.

Wolfe gave her a pat on the backside and shooed her back to work with a smile that the young maid returned, showing the long fangs of a purely carnivorous demon.

Once she was gone, Queen Jasmine stomped on the floor, gathering everyone's attention.

"Thank you all for coming tonight, but the representatives from the Old Man's Kingdom are here to pick up the guests of honour, and it is time to wrap things up." She declared.

It looked like nobody was willing to upset the "Old Man" as they all called the king of the magic kingdom, and the party began to clear out instantly, while Wolfe waited with the rest of his group to see what method of transport they would be using today.

The answer was strange in a way that Wolfe hadn't expected. A door appeared in the wall of the ballroom, and a feathered Demon stepped through. He gestured toward the door and bowed to Wolfe and the others.

"If you are ready, Patriarch and Princesses, we can receive you now." The Demon announced.

As far as grand entrances went, that was both one of the most understated and the most impressive at the same time. Just the fact that he could create a magical door that led to another country was pretty cool.

The portals were formless, and somehow, just having the basics of a door made it much more interesting to see.

Wolfe waved goodbye to Queen Jasmine and led the group through the door into the sitting room on the other side, which was filled with books, glowing crystals, and a floating creature that Wolfe recognized as an Ice Sprite, similar to his Lightning Sprite, but serving as a temperature control device in this setting.

That was a brilliant use of magic, and Wolfe made a note to see if he could do that with an Air Sprite. They didn't specialize in changing the temperature, but they could work as a fan and move air if he trained them properly.
