The next day I woke up to the girls still asleep. Which is weird considering how they're up before me to make breakfast. Thinking nothing of it, maybe they wanna sleep in I get up and and get ready.
Once I was finished I go downstairs to get started on breakfast. I see Monty and Myya searching the fridge for what I'm assuming is meat.
Charlie: Good Morning.
Monty/Myya: Morning master.
I sigh and take out some eggs with bacon. I prep the stove and bring out some plates. I set the table and begin cooking.
A few minutes later the food was done and I placed it on the plates.
Charlie: Breakfast!
I wait a few minutes to no reply.
Charlie: Guys, breakfast!
Again, silence.
I groan and go up the steps I first go to the boys room.
Charlie: C'mon time to eat.
Not even a stir. I begin to shake them but they don't wake up. I put my under their noses to see if they're still breathing and feel air come out.
Charlie: What the hell... What's wrong with them?
S1: It seems to be a sleeping spell. Everyone seems to be effected. Well you and your pets.
Charlie: Why's that?
S1: Your level seems to bypass the spell. Someone powerful must be nearby, not nearly as strong as you but definitely strong.
Charlie: Do you know where specifically.
S1: If I knew I'd already had told you dumb ass.
Charlie: Bitch..
I begin to put my gear on and head down stairs.
Charlie: Monty. Myya. Living room now.
I was adjusting the daggers on my hip and the sword on my back.
Charlie: I'm going to find someone who thought it was a good idea to mess with me. I need you both to hold down the fort while I'm gone.
M/M: Yes master!
Charlie: How many tokens do I have?
S1: You need to work on your memory.
Tokens: 150/♾
Charlie: Screw you. Roll for a pet.
Rolling...
Roll Complete
Congratulations you have
received a Runic Dire wolf(I don't own this)
Charlie: Bad ass.
I climb on top and run towards the forest.
Charlie: Can you sense where the magic is coming from.
S1: A few miles west.
~{~^~}~~•~~{~^~}~~•~~{~^~}~~•~~{~^~}~
As I'm riding I come across a mansion almost as big as my last one.
S1: They're in there. Be careful.
Charlie: Aww you care.
S1: A-as if, your just my only human vessel. So if you die I die.
Charlie: What ever helps you sleep at night.
I smirk. I climb off and pull out one of my daggers. I sneak in the shadows and search around.
I could sense immense amounts of magic coming from every where around this place. Then again it could just be the house itself.
I come around a corner only to go back behind as I saw skeletal guards. But it was different it was like they were just waiting for a command.
I go back into the shadows and search some more. I stop when I come across 2 huge doors. I push them open and come face to face with someone in robes but they were using their magic.
S1: There's your source.
Charlie: Hey!
The figure stops what it's doing and looks at me. I could feel a menacing aura coming from it but I paid no mind to it. Instead I walk towards it.
Charlie: Hey, I'm gonna have to ask you to like you know, stop doing that. Like your making all my friend sleep and shot and it's very annoying.
???: What...
Charlie: You heard me. Stop with the sleeping spell shit ok.
???: Do you know who I am?!
Charlie: (Here we go) Listen save me the monologue just stop or I'll have to kill you.
???: You dare speak to me that way, the almighty Tjorus!
Charlie: Who?
Tjorus: The all powerful mage Tjorus. The mage who lead armies to their victories. Has slain gouls and monsters of all kinds.
Charlie: Not ringing any bells. Are you supposed to be like Merlin or some shit?
Tjorus: How dare you compare me to that old fart. Can't believe my stupid old man gets all the credit.
Charlie: Wait... old man. Merlins your father?!
Tjorus: Yes, unfortunately...
Charlie: Could you take that hood off you head, it's hard to talk to someone you can't see the face of.
Tjorus: Whatever.
He slid off his hood which revealed a man in his 30's with black hair and a growing beard.
Charlie: What the hell are you even doing anyway, putting everyone to sleep.
Tjorus: Trying to create a cure but seems as though I've failed... again.
He plopped down on the floor in a crisscross manner.
Charlie: What's with the skeletons?
Tjorus: I told them to stand by when I saw you enter my home.
Charlie: Wait, you saw me?!
Tjorus: I mean yeah I'm merlins son I'm not that inexperienced, what do you take me for.
Charlie: You literally look like a hobo.
Tjorus: Stupid child, stop speaking to me in such a manner.
Charlie: Whatever, just stop with the spells and I'll be on my way.
I turn to walk out and head down the hallway. I could sense him following me when I stop to look at him.
Charlie: What are you doing.
Tjorus: I'm coming with you obviously.
He continued out the castle with me in tow.
