Another milestone- Chapter 50!

Anyways, I am planning to do a mass release once I reach 500 priv unlocks and another if I can touch 100 Golden Tickets this month.

Stay tuned! Enjoy!

[I am ready] Xavier sent a message.

[So am I] Eulene responded. [Your call]

Eulene kept her eyes on Chrysa, with a slight smile on her face.

Chrysa, on the other hand, anxiously kept her kinetic senses locked on Xavier and Eulene- especially the former, since he was acting suspiciously- sitting inside the washroom.

Chrysa's kinetic sensory power only allowed her to detect the flow of air and determine if any object was occupying space. She was sure that something of human shape occupied the lavatory, but there was no guarantee of whether it was really Xavier or if was any of his trick.

She could not even go and check because that would need her to move Eulene- who was in Chrysa's eyes- the more dangerous of the duo.

Chrysa suddenly sensed movements in the toilet and focused her attention on it. Xavier moved out of the washroom, and instead of moving towards them, opened a window on the other side of the train.

He peeked his head out the window for a bit, before jumping out.

Chrysa was taken aback. She instantly slid open the door to chase after him in reflex. But before she could move out, a masculine and familiar voice entered her ears.

"I apologise for the wait," Xavier said. He had returned to the cabin, albeit he was sitting beside the window unlike before.

Eulene let out a giggle.

Chrysa internally sighed in relief. Despite being annoyed by Xavier's shenanigan, she stayed professional- keeping her senses locked on the duo with an indifferent countenance.

Seven railway carriages away, on top of the last coach of the steamliner that headed towards Derbury, stood Xavier and Eulene.

Silver moonlight glinted on the fabrics of their clothes as the wind fluttered their hair and dress. They were facing South- towards Derbury.

"That was fun," Eulene declared with an excited smile.

A few seconds ago…

Xavier exited the lavatory while the clones climbed to the roof through the window. After the clones, under the control of Xavier, stealthily sneaked to their cabin- Xavier jumped out of the window, grabbing Chrysa's attention.

Taking the opportunity, Eulene flashed out through the window leaving no signs nor sounds. And at exactly that moment, the clones entered through the window and took their seats.

Xavier used Aeromancy to send the sound transmissions that made his own clone speak and Eulene's clone giggle.

And those were the last sounds the clones would make throughout the entire trip.

Back at the steamliner's roof, Xavier nodded, "Seeing her reaction, we are successful."

"Couldn't you build the clones back home and keep them in that magic hat of yours?" Eulene pointed at Xavier's hat. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

Xavier raised a brow and glanced at Eulene's storage ring. "You are saying your ring can store living objects?"

"Oh." Eulene understood.

"They are not perfect," Xavier said. "Their biggest weakness is that they don't have vocal cords, and hence, they can't speak. Nevertheless, I have tweaked with their biological clocks, manipulating the time of releases of their growth and inhibiting hormones. As a result, they will move at regular intervals."

Eulene turned back and focused her senses on the clones. "You even cloned our auras. I don't think there will be any problems, for now. But what if she asks questions?"

"Don't worry," Xavier said. "We have the right to remain silent. However, it would be safer if we return as soon as possible. Staying silent for a whole three hour journey will only raise suspicions."

Eulene turned to Xavier and knitted her brows. "You didn't do anything weird, right?"

Xavier gave Eulene a weird look. "I am not a xylophile."

Though Eulene never heard of the word before, she understood exactly what he meant. Was the bastard actually this innocent, or was this also an act of his. Besides, she had already witnessed with her senses that he did not do anything to her clone. She was just in a mood to tease him.

Xavier took out his pocket watch and checked the time.

11:20

"Shall we go then?" Eulene asked.

Xavier nodded.

They jumped down from the train. Before their feet could touch the ground, they were already back in Derbury- not far away from their destination- The Southern Art Gallery.

The building was not even half a kilometre away. An eerie aura surrounded the artistic cathedral. Even the small hill, upon which stood the gallery, was devoid of any flora- completely desolate.

Both of them tried to peek into the building with their senses. However, they failed.

Eulene scowled. Nothing ever blocked her spiritual senses before. Even the top formations back in her world could not hinder her senses for long. The only place that messed with her senses was the Vortex- the gateway that led her to this world.

She turned to Xavier, awaiting an answer.

Xavier's face was grim- a rare sight. "As I feared, they managed to 'haunt' this place."

"Haunt?" Eulene knitted her brows further,

"You will know once we get in."

Eulene did not ask anything further. She turned back to the gable roofed building. A sense of foreboding struck her. The more she stared at the eerie piece of architecture, the more unease she felt.

And she trusted her intuition. After all, her special constitution made it so that she had an almost perfect synergy with heavens. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m

"Something's not right," she warned.

"You are getting the same feeling?" Xavier had his sight glued to the gallery.

"Something's telling me this whole thing is connected to something even bigger," Eulene said. "I think we need to advance with absolute secrecy."

Xavier knew what she meant. But he was hesitant.

Eulene's storage ring glinted. A glittering silver robe replaced her dress. A plain silver mask appeared on her hand. She donned it on.

Her whole face was covered, except her eyes- which appeared even more dark than it usually was.

Xavier took in a deep breath and turned to Eulene. He brought out a black mask from his coat. "I apologise in advance."

Xavier wore the mask.

The moment he did, Eulene felt a sudden foreboding.

She dashed away, creating some distance.

Her sword appeared in her hand.
