My Angel system

Chapter 287 Looking For Help

It was a bright afternoon at Asaka but all the people could see was a dark gloomy sky that was about to pour down on them.

None of the people of Asaka were really enjoying their day and that included Jude who was currently lying on his bed with a lot of thoughts running through his mind.

His parents had gone to take care of their business and Matilda had returned to her master which meant that he was all alone in the house.

'If Xander hasn't sent me a reply by now, that means his father didn't approve.' Jude thought as he rolled to lie on his back.

"And I don't blame him." He said.

The four kingdoms were aware that elves despised humans and apart from that they had really good soldiers and a king who was a powerful wizard.

None of the kingdoms would want to put their forces at risk of fighting the elves when they had nothing to gain.

Jude was racking his brain trying to think of something that might help him and Asaka on the whole.

Asaka had a very good military force but even the king wasn't sure they would be able to successfully defend the kingdom from the elves.

'If only Asaka had a wizard as powerful as Ashburn.' Jude thought.

"Wait, Wizard." He said quickly sitting up on his bed.

It was at this point that something had finally clicked in his mind.

He quickly got up from his bed, slid into his hood, and took his bag before quickly making his way towards the door.

He casually walked towards the south of Asaka, he walked to the tent closest to the area.

He bought a piece of jewelry from the owner of the tent, he didn't need it but if he didn't buy something, it would look suspicious for him to just come and stand there.

He observed everywhere for a while before he slowly made his way to the hill.

He slowly went down the hill and quickly made his way through the forest to arrive at the dungeon.

He pulled down his hood to reveal his face before slowly making his way into the dungeon.

The place was dark and was making it impossible for him to find the route to Festus' living place so he decided to walk to the large open space where the travel stones were being protected with shadow enchantment and providing a little bit of light in the area.

He stared at the stones thinking about how easier things would be for him if he could get the stones.

"What brings you back here young one?"

He heard Festus' voice behind him and quickly turned to see the light wizard behind him with his glowing staff in his hand.

"Asaka is in danger," Jude said.

"Danger?"

Festus had suggested that they go to his living space where he could sit down and explain everything to him but Jude refused saying that he was okay with standing.

He explained everything to Festus right from the point he had returned from the knight academy and found out that Tania was missing to the point where Ashburn sent a threatening message to Roy because of Tauriel and Tuchel.

After telling Festus everything that had happened, the light wizard didn't say anything as stabbed his staff into the ground and rested some of his weight on it.

"I need your help Festus, Asaka needs your help," Jude said.

"For what?" Festus asked.

"I understand that you were banished by Roy but I'm very sure that not everybody agreed to his judgment," Jude said.

"It's not that Jude, I know me getting banished doesn't have anything to do with the people of Asaka it's just that what you're asking me to do is beyond me," Festus said, pulling out his staff from the ground.

"Huh?" Jude said with a confused expression on his face.

"You talked about a whole army of elves and their king who is a powerful wizard right?" Festus said.

"Yes," Jude replied.

"I am a light wizard Jude, I do not follow soldiers to battle, my powers are meant for taking away darkness, not fighting battles," Festus said.

"If you don't help, Asaka will be in darkness," Jude said.

"I wasn't talking about that aspect of darkness Jude, I was talking about evil spirits," Festus said.

"Oh," Jude said. "But isn't there any way you can help? This may be the last stand of Asaka."

"I don't think there's any way I can help and besides my powers have depleted over the years," Festus said, turning to start heading back to his living space.

"Isn't there any spell that you can cast to keep them out?" Jude asked.

"None that I can remember," Festus said walking towards the entrance to the route to his living space.

"So you're just going to stay here and listen to Asaka get burnt to the ground, your home," Jude said.

"Used to be," Festus said after he had stopped walking.

"No it is still your home and I know there are people who you care for there, someone like my father, I know you may still be angry at Roy for what he did to you and think he deserves a little punishment but this isn't about him," Jude said.

"I never said I had anything against Roy for what he did," Festus said quickly, turning to him.

"Yes you are, it's very evident in your voice," Jude said.

"No, it's not," Festus said.

"Then prove it, you are a light wizard and I know you can come up with something, come up with something to help Asaka, your people," Jude said.

Festus stared at him for a while before a smile slowly made its way to his face, he was about to say something before the two of them heard a sound coming from the entrance to the dungeon.

"What was that?" Jude asked, looking in the direction.

"Lito," Festus said, raising his staff as white lights shot out from it and fixed on different parts of the roof to provide good lighting in the area.

Now Jude could see who had made the sound they had heard as the person was in a black hood and was confidently walking towards them now.

"Who are you?" Jude asked.

The person didn't reply as he walked further toward and when he had gotten closer to Festus, he stopped walking and slowly removed the hood covering his face.

Jude had a shocked expression on his face as he looked at the person who was under the hood.

"Another young one," Festus said.

"Carl," Jude said. "What are you doing here?"

"I thought we were friends," Carl said, looking around.

"We are," Jude said.

"I don't think so, because you wouldn't keep all these away from me, Jude you know I am always there to help you with anything and you decided to keep all these things away from me," Carl said.

"I'm sorry," Jude said.
