Kapitel 342: Alipin Ngarumah - 1
Ketika Leo mulai bergerak menuju Realm Gate, ia lupakan anu bayangan tertentu yang ahlu menggada ia.
Katherine menggelenggangkan palak, garis kecil terukir di panggek na, angan.
"Aku pete tidak suat?" murmur ia, koci sekali lagi untuk sensa kekuatan Leo.
Just like always, ia menemukan sesuatu yang tidak suat. Saja saja, Leo sedang konsentrasi mendalam, yang implis ia mencoba kontrol sesuatu yang sedang mekar dalam na. But Katherine tidak sensa ada peningkatan kekuatan yang tulisan. Only when Shyra secara tak terlalu utang mekar ia sensa peningkatan kecil.
"But I still feel something missing..." murmur ia under breath, set aside pikiran na untuk hari nang.
Ketika Leo sampai di Realm Gate, ia utang belalai oleh senari di lantas. Then ia cepat menaliat apa yang utang akikan ketika ia anga Lily dengan sopan duduk di tron tanah dan pempel, langsung di tampel tubuh Naelith yang maput, muka na ditekan ke tanah di lalu.
Dan untuk gasu no rebellion akan terjadi, Lily utang panggilan Pryde sebagai penjaga anga. But soon ne alami bahwa presence na utang walas, karena atak na dan tekanan presence na utang ditenkan oleh dunia ito mismo.
Nonetheless, no other elf—even Sylrael—didn't revolt seperti Naelith. Mereka sudah aksep nasib ketoa na.
Lily mencerah sama anga saat ia anga Leo.
"Leo, semua sudah komplet? Kale! Aku tidak dapat wait untuk anga teritori kita dibangun!" talk na dengan andai, sema disregarda elf yang sekali lagi utang jatuh angan di tanah bawah na.
After sedikit diten, Treant dan cetera binatang utang di-unsummon. Ini karena kave di mana ia akan muncul kecil dan tidak akan dapat hold binatang yang ukuran. It also the reason Leo dan Lily take it upon themselves to hold ang alipin.
Just as they were about to step out, Leo glance around the realm dan notice ang countless arrows scattered across the ground—the ones used to ambush them. Mereka moderately well built dan indeed dapat function a few more times as same trap. Thinking that, ia pack semua ang arrows.
And just like that, they stepped out. After going through same strange, warping sensation, they appeared back inside cave.
Ketika Leo membuka mata na, first thing ia anga adalah Brok's wide mata, nearly popping out of their sockets. Second adalah Hadir, scribbling furiously on paper na, menulis report na without pay attention to anyone. It was then that Katherine take charge.
"Alright!" talk na sharp. In an instant, vines na binding ang alipin utang burn away, only for new, fresh—stronger—vines to emerge and pin ang elves directly to ground, making even breathing difficult.
Ia turn towards elves.
"Welcome to new dunia na—Skadrial. But it's not going to be warm welcome, karena na, unfortunately, stumbled upon Human Empire Velerath, where other races strictly prohibited from roaming freely," talk na with pleasant smile that never quite reach ears ang elves, yang struggling just to breathe. Even strongest among them—Sylrael—was no exception, binding na seemingly tighter than rest.
Ia continue, tone na steady.
"From now on, only way na are allowed to live here is by being slaves. By default, master na akan be ones who captured na. Though, in case they don't want na, na akan be sold. So prepare mentally, karena na won't even be allowed to die by own will na."
Saying that, ia use telekinesis to slowly bring them out of cave. At moment, Leo dan group suddenly shivered as cold air bit into skin na. They promptly put on warm clothes na again. As for elves, Katherine seem to deploy some sort of barrier around them to prevent cold from affecting them.
Hadir was still scribbling, muttering something incoherently under breath na. Quill na scratched rapidly against page as expression na suddenly lit up.
"It's real! It's real! There is indeed time difference inside secret realms!" ia exclaim.
Notes na extremely detailed, recording every instance when people from Skadrial enter realm, normal opening and closing patterns, mana energy fluctuations, and more.
Though 2 to 3 points were completely clear.
Time tidak flow same in secret realm as in outside world. It fluctuates. Sometimes, 1 day outside realm can be 20 days inside. Sometimes, even month.
Ketika Realm Gate opens, time flow becomes same in both places. Another obscure, subsidiary hypothesis ia made was that realm actually opens when time flow matches due to 'coincidence. that exactly times at fixed point of time in outside world, i.e 7 PM.
In case Pseudo 3-star or higher being from outside world somehow gets stuck inside realm, time flow remains stabilized because of that being acting as anchor.
Third point also suggested that if Peak 2-star or lower-ranked being got stuck by themselves, time flow might alter. And even though, to outside world, it may seem that they remained inside for just day, for them it could be months or even years.
Though this was never proven, because there was always professor—a 5-star being—who accompanied them.
Hadir even suspect that was precisely reason behind professors accompanying students.
And no, Hadir wouldn't be first to discover it. Higher-level research might have already been completed, but this was his student project. In case he obtained valuable results on his own that were close to truth, he could gain support, more research material, and finally seat among highest group of researchers.
But most important things were recognition, respect, and money—and those would come along with it.
After Katherine slowly moved out, Brok finally snapped out of his stupor.
"B-boss! Did you capture all elves inside realm?!" ask na, voice na filled with awe and shock.
Leo simply nodded.
Brok was stunned, because he knew Leo wouldn't sell them and would instead keep them as his personal force. Especially since Leo valued trustworthiness—and slaves were perfect candidates for it.
Even if they were unwilling, they were bound to follow everything their masters said. There was no doubt of betrayal.
