Returning From The Magic World

"Arthur, does that mean you agree?" Bella chased after Arthur and asked to confirm.

"Let's meet her tomorrow," Arthur replied.

Tomorrow is Sunday, so it's pretty free.

"Good!" Bella smiled.

As they passed her apartment, they stopped briefly. The woman picked up some clothes before following them to their home.

Arriving there, they found Isabel already home. She was lying on the couch, still in her work clothes.

Her eyes were still open, so seeing them coming, she immediately stood up.

"Arthur, Carla, you all right, right?" She asked hurriedly, not even noticing Bella's existence.

Before Arthur and Carla could answer Isabel's question, Bella suddenly answered it for them. "Auntie, there were seven people who tried to attack us, but do you know what happened? — some roots suddenly came out from under the ground, binding them so they couldn't move at all."

Isabel who finally noticed her presence turned her gaze towards her, she spontaneously said, "Bella?"

If she came here, she wouldn't be surprised, but it was clear she was talking about magic, something that should be their family's secret.

"Don't worry aunt, everything is under control," Arthur said.

Isabel breathed a sigh of relief, wiping her slightly sweaty forehead.

"Mom, keep this, it will make it easier for you to understand spells." Carla handed one of the black flowers to her mother.

The latter initially thought it was just a toy flower, but upon bringing it closer to herself, she immediately discovered it was unique.

"What's this?" She asked, glancing at Arthur.

"It's called the Flower of Sorrow," Carla replied before starting to explain the flower's origins and uses. She said everything Arthur had said.

After knowing that, Isabel said, "it turns out that there is such a thing in this world."

She sat down again, surveying the flower from every side while Carla and Bella went up to the second floor.

As they disappeared she asked Arthur while gesturing for her to sit down. "Is it alright that girl knows about this?"

"No problem, the secret won't leak as long as I don't allow it," Arthur replied.

Isabel nodded hearing that. "Then what did you do to the people who tried to kidnap Carla?"

"I freed them." Arthur began to explain what had happened, including their backgrounds and things they had seen in Alaska.

Isabel seems to only care about the latter.

"By the way, aunt, what is the God Eye Organization like?" asked Arthur.

"They?" Isabel shook her head before replying, "well, they are made up of ancient families who always wanted the world to be under their control. In terms of control, they are indeed the greatest, but in the end, we live in the modern world, there are many strong people appearing in various places. They do control the core of the economy, but they can't do as they please, can only do things in the dark."

"Have you ever heard of them being related to magus?"

​ "There are too many rumors about them written on the internet, whether those things are true or not, no one knows for sure including me."

"I see!" Arthur stopped talking about that, he then asked how her understanding was of the spell he had given her.

"I still don't understand anything," Isabel replied. She took out the paper on which the spell was written, showed it to Arthur and pointed at several places on the paper. Then, she started asking question after question.

___

Rock and the others return to their apartment after some time walking around the city to heal their mental health which has been badly shaken.

None of them dared to speak about it and in fact neither would they be able to.

When they entered the apartment, they found a tall young man, Alex, lying relaxed on the sofa, watching tv while smoking and drinking.

Their arrival didn't make him change his position, he just looked at them and asked "is that done, no problem right?"

"..."

"I think I want to beat someone up," Ben said.

"Me too," added Barbara, she picked up a baseball bat beside the door.

"Let's do it!" Cora went first.

Alex got confused so he sat up, he wanted to ask what they were talking about but Rock suddenly threw a baseball at him. It landed right on his cheek.

"Die..." Ben and Cora jumped together and kicked the confused young man's face.
