《ADEPTAVERSE》16 - Empire of Darkness Arc: We Go West
Advertisement
Hugo and Altara were on a yacht that was drifting across the sea at high speeds. Altara was sat on the side of the boat looking at the clear blue water swiftly pass them. He soon looked over his shoulder at Hugo who took his parka off, putting it on the side of the boat before stretching.
"Hugo, help me with this." A soft voice rang out from inside the yacht, it was Kry. He was wearing a white top and some jeans. Hugo looked down at him, seeing him on one side of a large crate, he quickly went to the other side of it, lifting it with Kry onto the main deck of the yacht. Kry adjusted his glasses on his nose and exhaled, standing straight.
"What's in there?" Altara asked, standing up and walking over to the crate. Kry quickly flicked it open. Inside were some earpieces as well as some silenced pistols.
"Magik will only make noise. If we want to put a stop to what is going on we will have to do it quietly if possible." Kry took out the note Altara and Konstantine found from his back pocket, reading it over again.
We need you to get rid of all experienced magik users in the Oligarchy of Magik. They will only cause problems for us in the invasion. Once you've collected all of their heads, come to Wrathak and you shall become the richest noblemen on Adepta whilst helping us create a new world under the ruling of one, powerful ideology. We are using you because we have worked with you before and we cannot risk our identity being revealed.
"Hm." Kry tapped his chin with his index finger.
"I'll say it again, we should've contacted the military and had them deal with this." Hugo said with a sigh, folding his arms.

"And the risk to start a war? Listen, if we contacted the Homstalan Military they would've most likely A) not believed us or B) Launched an assault onto Wrathak. The note strongly hints that Wrathak was using Eternal Chrome to target the teachers at the Oligarchy of Magik as they know that we'll be a problem if they carried out their invasion. They are sneaky, I tell you. If they succeeded in taking us out...well..." Kry gave Hugo an earpiece from the crate. "Let's just be glad that Konstantine and Altara found this note."
Altara cleared his throat and spoke. "Speaking of Konstantine, where is she?"
"Sleeping below deck. She hadn't slept since you got back from the forests yesterday evening." Hugo looked at Altara. "Missin' her?"
"No, just wondering." Altara looked at Kry who handed him an earpiece as well. "What is this for?"
"Once we reach Wrathak we will camp out until the next morning, soon enough we might have to split up. We can communicate through these." Kry attached one to his own ear. "I will give Konstantine hers when she wakes up."
Hugo attached his as well. "Funny how you haven't asked Kry the most obvious question, Alt."
"Obvious question?" Altara cocked his eyebrow and looked at Hugo.
"Yeah, the yacht. You know how expensive these are?" Hugo grinned.
"Wait, Kry you own this boat??" Altara looked at Kry, his eyes widening slightly.
Kry chuckled and nodded. "That I do. I'm a rich man, set for life actually. I keep doing what I'm doing not for money, but because I'm dedicated." He looked at Altara, taking the pistols out the crate. "Maybe you'll turn out like me one day Altara, best astrologist on Adepta!" He gave Hugo a pistol and three magazines. "Don't worry, it's not loaded."

"Heh, here's hoping." Altara nervously chuckled after speaking. Hugo put the pistol in a holster attached to his waist. "My coat should hide it when I put it on."
Kry then took out a map, closing the crate and putting the map on top of it, drawing a line with his finger. "We should be around here by now."

"Now is a good time to get some rest, I will wake you all up if you're still asleep when we arrive." Kry put the map away.
"What about you? Aren't you sleeping?" Altara asked Kry, looking over at him and folding his arms. Hugo went below deck.
"I don't need to sleep. I have an implant in my brain that constantly gives me the necessary amount of energy. It's useful for someone like me who is constantly watching the stars." He lifted a patch of his white hair up at the back of his head, pointing to a small metallic slit in his skin. Altara raised his brow when he saw this. "W-Woah...so you never get tired?"
"Only when it comes to things like running, I just don't need to sleep." Kry adjusted his glasses. "Anyways...go sleep Altara, there should be a bed below deck."
Altara quickly nodded. "Yes sir- I-I mean Kry." He quickly went below deck. Kry soon turned around and looked at the direction the yacht was going, he frowned slightly before talking calmly to himself.
"Wrathak. The homeland of the Wolven."
