Nyx's Phantasma Act 2

Chapter 15: Espia Kingdom

Chapter 15: Espia Kingdom

Both Alina and I ran along with Magnus behind us. We met at the first intersection with August, Rayth and Jasper. Alongside Yvette and a knight.

The knight walked up to me, "Hello, I am Indigo Aujla-Letts, Tuca Knight of Dominion."

I nodded and shook his hand, "I am–"

"I am well aware of all of you."

Jasper looked tired with an unknown sword on his hip. As Eloria and Lumi walked up from their side as we exchanged information.

"Blights Phantom!?!"

August jumps up from the news given by Eloria, "Yeah, he also had crazy control over it. with a far larger pool of phantoms he copied."

"This has become more troublesome... Ugh!"

Jasper sighed as he sat down, "So? Espia Kingdom is next yeah? Lyn?"

"There is a friend reunion for me at Lestine City."

Indigo points, "I'm heading to Isogan Capital City. We can get there quickly with Tuca Kingdom on your back."

August grabs onto Indigo's hands, "We'd love to!"

Lumi points, "I'll be heading back to Oksua. Master Eloria, you better keep the promise."

"Got it."

So, the Tuca knights took Yvette back, with Lumi who took off, as Magnus headed back to Dasall Port to head to the republic and meet Savion. And we made it out of Drey Cave, a sight of Ironbolt Prison, surrounded by a bunch of Espia Knights. One was a long blond man who looked at Indigo and laughed,

"Ha, Indigo you look dirty as hell."

"Shut it, I was in a cave. These are the people our king wants yours to meet."

He introduced himself once he saw us, "The name is William B. Smith. The investigation is almost at a close. The Black Raven Guild is no more. Alright Indigo, I'll head back to Isogan City. Why don't you and your friends relax at Niptus City?"

Niptus was closer as Indigo took William's advice. I asked,

"So you know William?"

"Will and I are from the same small village. I went to Tuca and he went to Zoudou. He does get on my nerves from time to time but..."

Eloria shrugged, "Eh, can he beat Nina though."

Indigo laughs, "Haha of course not. Both of us gave up becoming strong. What we'll never give up is our sense of justice. At least, that's what I believe a knight should be."

August points, "Well? I know Niptus is a popular tourist city. Let's go! I even heard they have a hot spring!"

Alina sighed, "Might I remind you we are on borrowed time?"

August laughs, "We have time. I'd say give or take a week."

With half of us exhausted, and the other excited we headed to Niptus City. Indigo also followed us, since William's comment he knew that the king of Espia could wait. When we arrived, the city was filled with Heianise style buildings and people with their clothings.

I asked, "Huh? I swear it looks like we're in Heian?"

Indigo smiled, "This city was founded by a Heianise person, who worked very close with the king. Yeah the reason why it's a tourist spot is, the culture here is a mix between Heian and Espia."

As we walk around August points, "Look! The hot springs! Let's go go go!"

Jasper laughs, "Someone's excited."
