Hebilon was sitting on a hill nearby the camp, under the sunlight, his skin was burning in the heat, but his worries for motaro didn't let him to go back. He saw a distant shadow of his brother : motaro! I'm glad you are... (his words were cut down the moment he saw the creatures) What are those creatures at your back?

  Motaro : hooy hebilon! Look at the corpses I gathered in battle. You like em?

  Hebilon laughed : what's likeable about them?

  Motaro : It doesn't really matter you like them or not now that I'm thinking. Take them and begin the experiment. This is their leader (he threw Alex's corpse in front of hebilon's feet) he seemingly was a human, turned into this abomination. He also talked about something like transformation magic.

  Hebilon was shocked, he ran toward motaro, worried : don't... Don't tell me he used it on you...

  Motaro casually answered : he did.

  Hebilon : where?!!!

  Motaro : What's the matter? It had no effects anyways.

  Hebilon : I need to check where he stroke you!!!!

  Motaro : right here. (he pointed at his right arm)

  Hebilon was speechless : it... It... Actually had... No effects...

  Motaro : didn't I told you already? why you were so worried about it?

  Hebilon : because transformation magic is a high tier magic, no ordinary magician can cast it, it's even hard for me to use it.

  Motaro looked at Alex : he seemingly had only this magic. He also talked about his master that caused all of this. You see that aura around them?

  Hebilon looked at the corpses and confirmed his words.

  Motaro continued : It was kinda connected to his body, but a part of it was on a different place. I'm saying this coz when I killed him, the aura didn't fully disappeared.

  Hebilon : I'm thankful, really thankful for your informations motaro. Me and jino will begin experiments on these corpses, his half living and half dead body will be good use and help here.

  Motaro : yeah... His death magic are on another level too. Wish you both good luck. I'm on the main tent, call me if anything went wrong...

  With those words, Motaro leaved the corpses on Hebilon's behalf, putting full trust, that his brother will fix it all.

  Time passed till afternoon...

  With a swift motion, the veil of the main tent was moved aside. Jino, entered the tent, a vary smile on his face.

  Jino : motaro... We've got some problem here.

  Motaro turned his head toward his brother and smiled : Jino!! glad you are here. Tell me. what's wrong?

  Jino : well you know. It's not going to be that hard to explain.

  Motaro : when you say that. I'm sure it'll be complicated in some way.

  Jino continued : problem is that we have little information about who is behind all this stuff. Good thing is that we have little information.

  Motaro, lay down in his chair, had his eyes half closed, looking at Jino : fuck you.

  Jino responded : your welcome. As I was saying, the source of the aura you talked about is unknown, it most certainly is from a single monster, not that useless transformed human you killed, he was just a weak servant.

  Motaro whispered : hmph, I see, so overall he was just a poor slave... Who you guys guessing to be behind all of it?

  Jino : A magic master. But that's all. About the creatures...

  Motaro stopped his talk : we need someone more than just a regular magician to understand it. Right?

  Jino responded : you read my mind brother.

  Motaro : you don't have a mind to begin with. But who the hell Are going to meet exactly?

  Jino : the grand priest. We need to be more than just wonderers, from now on at least. And the library is the perfect place to be in. We can get information, and maybe finding new alliance.

  Motaro : I can't think about this on my own. Your choices are more important here. If you guys think it's a good choice, tell the crew. My mind is more crowded on another problem...

  Jino : what is it?

  Motaro : my concern, not yours Jino. Don't get yourself involved. You have more important works to do (he smiled and put his hand on Jinova's shoulder to comfort him)

  Jino gladly answered : sure, general. As you wish (he also smiled and leaved the tent)

  Tomorrow of that day

  Motaro was speaking with his crew at the sunrise : today! All of you are going to be transfered to the grand library of magicians. Take this opportunity at its best! I want all of you to use it well and treat everyone with kindness, as it will be your new home!, I leave you all with my other 3 brothers, as I will continue my journey through this Sahara alone! I will join you all once I have finished my work here. So do not worry about me, as your grand general, I assure you I will return!

  Hebilon was watching him from aside : glorious talk, brother

  Motaro turned his face toward the voice : hebilon..

  Hebilon continued his brother's speech : As motaro said, we are all going to be under the library's roof as our home! We will reunite with the magicians and grant ourselves even more power than before.

  *all the army shouted in happiness.

  He turned his face toward motaro : brother... When are you going to join us?

  Motaro : when I'm done with someone in here... It's a personal one, so don't even give a care about it...

  Hebilon smiled : even if I wanted, I couldn't. I'll lead our army and crew to the library. Be sure to stay safe, brother.

  Motaro calmly smiled : I will.
