Secret Imprint
“The secret imprint?”
Leylin nodded his head and stopped in his motions.
This so-called technique for the secret imprint was a tool that official Magi use for communication.
Every newly advanced official Magus would be able to design a special sign to represent themselves. In future, they could leave their secret imprint behind for communication.
As for some Magi, they would even brand it on their family members or slaves to represent the authority given.
Leylin had crafted an imprint for himself. It was an inverted triangle enclosed in a circle. On the triangle was a black serpent that snaked to the top
As for the leader’s chest, an image of blue dodo bird’s head was flashing with light.
It seemed that initiating the communication to the head required a tremendous amount of spiritual force and magic power. Just a few minutes later, the leader’s face at once became deathly pale.
Fortunately, right before the leader was unable to endure any longer, the blue light shone brightly and a blue dodo bird flew out from his chest, and perched on his shoulder.
“Sulley, is there something you want to see me about?”
The dodo bird seemed not to have noticed Leylin and immediately questioned the leader.
“He… Head, it’s like this…” That leader hurriedly whispered to the dodo bird and briefly updated him on the happenings.
The secret imprint had its limitations and could only project the voices without images. Moreover, without the aid of the communications tower, once the distance was too great, even the voices could not be sent across.
“Hello, young expert!” The dodo bird greeted Leylin.
“It’s an honour to meet the head of the Yale family, Sam Yale!” Leylin opened his mouth, his voice gruff and hoarse. It was obviously altered with the help the A.I. Chip.
“According to those family members that were dumb enough to offend you, I apologise on their behalf…” The blue dodo bird already flew back into the leader’s chest, turning into a tattoo that seemed to be alive.
“They actually dared to offend me, an official Magus. Hence, they must pay the price!” Murderous intent was contained in Leylin’s voice.
“They?” The dodo bird paused, before speaking again, “I can act on their behalf and compensate you…”
“Compensation? Leylin hooted with laughter. “Are you mocking me?”
“Not good, run!” The leader did not think that Leylin did not give the head any face in the slightest, as he hurriedly retreated.
“After offending me you still want to leave?”
Leylin’s eyes turned bloodshot and several red fireballs were cast, turning the three who could not dodge in time into a pile of ashes.
The might of acolytes, in front of official Magi, were as brittle as paper.
As for the secret imprint which was a communication device, naturally it was unable to transmit any attacks.
By abusing the limitations of the secret imprint, Leylin chose to kill them.
Anyway, his voice was concealed by the alteration of the A.I. Chip, so Sam would never be able to find him.
Keeping these acolytes alive, instead, would easily bring him trouble.
Moreover, he did not wish to remain in the Inlan Dukedom. Once he leaves the place, the other party would not be able to do anything about it either.
Walking towards the grandparent and grandchild pair, the little girl was still unconscious, having several tears on her face.
“Lord…Lord Magus!”
A shocked expression filled the old geezer’s face. Obviously, he never thought that this person who rode the same horse carriage was actually an official Magus.
Leylin squatted down and examined the old geezer’s wounds
The injury was serious. A commoner would definitely die from this wound. Even if this old geezer was a level 2 acolyte, he could survive for an additional 10 hours maximum.
Of course, Leylin could cure the old geezer but he would lose some of his precious herbs and medicines in the process. Moreover, the old geezer didn’t have a Warlock’s bloodline so Leylin was very hesitant to treat him.
However, what has to be done has to be done.
“Drink this! It will make you feel better!” Leylin handed a vial of vitality potion to the old geezer. After which, he headed over to wake the little girl up.
“Grandpa Miles!” As soon as she woke up, the little girl shouted, and threw herself at Miles and began to weep in sorrow.
After drinking the potion, the old geezer’s face revealed a flash of life. Momentarily, his spirits were up as well. This potion was merely a stimulant. It was much cheaper than the actual cure, so Leylin was willing to expend such a cheap potion.
“Good child!”
Mile stretched out his wrinkled and quivering hands to gently stroke the child’s head.
“This… This Lord Magus, could you send her to the Great Canyon Margaret, to where Marian is….”
The old geezer begged Leylin earnestly.
“I can!” Leylin pondered in silence for a moment before nodding his head to agree.
