They walked out of the temple, and then a door appeared in front of them.
"Would you like to stay for some time?" Wallace asked.
"Thank you very much. But it's good if we go back to Cerfis." Felmer said and shook hands with Wallace. "By the way, what are those jewels?"
"The five jewels are the particles. All five of them have distinct powers of their own. The king has divided them into five of his trusted people. You will have to fight them and obtain them."
"What then?"
"Then…You will have control of the magic world. The Alore clan will be under your complete command. Currently, we are your allies." Wallace stopped. "You proved yourself through these trials. You have much to learn, and I am assured that through the help of your friends and this clan at your service, you will succeed for sure."
"I will…" Felmer nodded.
Then the door opened, and they walked towards it.
"Master Felmer. The badge will lead you to the five jewels in the order chosen by Lord Emairis and Lord Emayla. Your real fight and journey had now begun. As the fifth sky, and the leader of the Alore clan. I, Wallace Alore, wish you success in your battle ahead."
Felmer stared deep into Wallace's eyes. He could see the hope and trust in those old eyes. He nodded, and then they left the realm.
"Sir…the door has opened again. They are back and coming here." A scout said to Deris.
"Okay…Get ready, everyone! Time to hunt!" Deris commanded.
All the Morl Riders picked up their weapons and gathered around Deris. Deris opened the cage and let the beast out. The beast, Lelix, walked outside, looked at Deris and snarled.
"Be patient."
Deris led his men towards their ambush position, and they waited for the Cerfisians.
As the squad rode their horses and got on the return path, they stopped. They were shocked by the vast forest that had appeared in the distance.
"Was it there before?" Felmer asked.
"Of course not. This was never there." Elna replied. "What do we do? There is only one road that leads back to Hormis. And that is through that forest."
"This is obviously a trap," Melfer added.
"We have to go through this forest. We will be alert at all times and fight with them. We have no other choice." The captain said. "My wound has pretty much healed. So I can fight."
They turned and looked at Flexin.
"Don't worry about me. I can look after myself."
"Fine then…We will fight and get out victorious." Felmer announced.
They nodded and then headed towards the forest.
This time, the battle was unavoidable.
