I kept reloading over and over, as many times as I needed to. Until I got the answers that I wanted until I was satisfied with what I got.

Nvida knew a lot less than I already knew. But she still had information that was crucial to me given in the current situation.

For example, one of the 2nd Order is around in the nearest Elven kingdom and can come in care of an emergency. Though Nvida does not know who she or he is. Just that there is a 2nd Order here to watch over things happening around these parts.

'I wonder if there is anything that I could do to know about that 2nd Order,' I thought as I looked at Nvida before she asked,

"So. Now that you got your answers, should I assume that you are one of us now?"

"Yeah, just wait a moment."

And once again, I repeated the entire thing before reaching to the point where we all just sat on the table and I looked at Trisha.

"Since I was pretty curious about you, I would like to hear from you first. Will that be fine?" I asked Trisha with a curious mind.

Trisha was the only one among the people here, of whom I knew nothing about.

"I will tell you about it... but first," Trisha spoke as she looked at those around us. Closed her eyes for a few seconds... and then muttered in a low voice.

A vibrant energy flowed out of the ground and connected with Trisha. Then she opened her shining white eyes and looked at me before speaking,

"[WORLD MAGIC: ONLY YOU AND I!!!]"

And the terrain changed as everything began crumbling around us. The first to crumble was the people, including the dark mages and Nvida.

Then the ground crumbled, and everything turned to dust before disintegrating into nothingness. I stood there in the space, while looking at Trisha standing at her place where she was.

And finally, the sky was gone as well, leaving nothing but space where only Trisha and I existed.

It was similar to my personal space when I first visited it, but it was black instead of white.

"This is your world magic?" I was a bit curious as I observed the empty space.

"You will understand in a moment," she spoke with no change in her serious expression before something formed in the air between us.

At first, it seemed like a small white polycotyledonous seed that levitated in the air.

I looked at those stacks of pages that were slowly turning black now.

"Inside?" I asked as I focused on it.

"What do you think that book is?" She asked, as if trying to test my knowledge again.

"A prison holder of all the people who used that book," I answered honestly, making her widen her eyes for a brief moment before smiling lightly as she muttered,

"You really are knowledgeable."

She then increased the passage of time and eons passed as the book kept absorbing the branch's power.

It wasn't as if the border town existed for such long, but it meant that the book had been absorbing the power for that long of a period.

Honestly, that much power made me gulp a little as I kept watching the process.

"Whatever or whoever is inside that book is getting all this power for an unknown amount of time. He, she or whatever it is, we cannot let it out anymore. The generation of High Elves have sacrificed their life in watching over this branch for a long, long time."

Trisha seemed quite serious about it.

"And this event with the Dark Mages carries the possibility of opening the book, huh?" I mumbled, making her nod slightly.

'Well, they are indeed trying to open the book to bring Laplace back,' I thought as I recalled back the previous information before I turned to Trisha as she made a shocked expression.

'Don't tell me you can hear my thoughts?' I thought as I looked at her with an awkward smile, making her nod slightly.

I shook my head before not caring much about it. Instead, I focused on Trisha in front of me as I asked,

"Is there anything else you wanted to say? Or perhaps anything you wanted to know?"

She looked at me for a brief moment and spoke,

"I don't know how much you know, but other than Elves, Dark Mages and you... there is another active force who is going to cause trouble within the town in the same time frame."

And her words clicked a certain race that I was keeping at the back of my mind for a while now.

"Witches?" I was pretty sure about it.

"Witches," she answered as she looked at me.

"How much do you know about it?" I asked, and she made a small smile as she answered,

"Not much. Only that they will join the fray once everything is over. Until then they will lie low and keep an eye out on things."

'No wonder Zora is watching over me along with Freya,' I sighed, making Trisha way beyond shocked as she shouted,

"Goddess Freya????!!!!!!"

'Oops!!' I sighed on the inside as I opened the [System]

"Wait!" she shouted, but it was too late...

"How do you know Goddess Freya?!!!" was her last call.
