"Do you really have it?" Amelia asked, seriously, "whoever had this token can invite as many people as he wanted, but the rules are that all must succeed or all will fall," she added, stressing over the rules.

"Yes, I have it," Arthur said, as he never thought this token would be so important. Plus, he could now invite as many members as he liked, and such a thing was a bonus to him.

"I think you must consider whom to join your team," Amelia said, advising him sincerely.

"That's right, you must select the team members carefully. Any weak or unreliable one will end up failing all," Gregory added, joining Amelia in her advice.

But, the reaction they received from Arthur was just his calm, confident smile. He had the trust in his ability to turn non-mage personnel into very powerful mage, and so if he had mages from the start, he would turn them far stronger than before.

"Don't worry about this, just try to contact your friends and tell them to join us in that place if they are interested," he said, in a tone full of confidence.

Amelia just glanced at him, like the other two, before they took out a small piece of paper. Each one had a group of these papers, which were similar to each other in shape and size. There were some writings over each piece of paper, and Arthur couldn't make anything from these writings, as they were written in small fonts.

"Wow, you have the bird's wings?" Madly exclaimed, in more surprise and shock than before, as she recognized these papers from the first glance.

"What is the bird's wing?" Arthur asked, while watching all of the three cut their fingers, and write in their blood over these pieces of papers. Each paper would ignite the moment they raised their fingers away from it, as they threw it in the wind, to turn into ash.

"They are a simple, yet effective, way to contact others. Mages always have it, but not lower realm mages," Ouly replied, explaining what he already knew about these papers.

His words made the three busy writing and using these papers chuckle, as Clovert said, correcting his words:

"It's not a thing for higher grade mages, they are just quite expensive, especially when they are consumables. So, not any ordinary mage can afford them."

Arthur now understood these papers, and why they were called like that. He smiled, as this way of contact was somehow strange, but quite familiar, resembling, to some extent, the way of using spiritual plates back at his home.

He watched, with everybody else, the three writing over twenty papers, then after they finished, they looked like they just did something normal, not quite extraordinary.

"Will they come?" Arthur asked, doubtfully.

"I believe they will," Amelia said, "plus I asked them to contact any other friend that might be interested. You are ok with that, right?"

Arthur was speechless, as she worked on his idea and developed it further. He just nodded in satisfaction, before he said:

"We need to make plans to get you stronger once we reach there."

The words he said were really, strangely, trustworthy, as it made everyone picture themselves stronger and more powerful than right now. Even Amelia, who had a back black history, smiled in satisfaction, as it seemed she chose her man quite lucky and right this time.

The journey took four hours and half, until they reached the outer region of that valley. The place was quite the opposite to what they pictured in their minds, as from the previous serious words about the place, they thought they were heading to a graveyard -like place, or a gloomy place full of fog.

However, what lay ahead of them was a green place, full of plants, herbs, and flowers of different kinds. The sight of this place alone was enough to make any stress fade away. The two huge series of mountains on the sides were just lining the place, in a beautiful natural order that didn't seem out of context.

As for the valley itself, it was really huge, extending inside for the end of the horizon, where a thin, sparkling line appeared there, indicating the presence of the lake.

"What a paradise!" Lily exclaimed, in surprise and shock, from her admiration to this amazingly beautiful scene.

"Is this place the dangerous hideous place you spoke of?" Ron asked, in great doubt, Gregory and Clovert. The two just shrugged their shoulders, while Amelia said:

"This place is really beautiful, but full of dangers. No one ever understood the place, or even explored it to the fullest. All I know is that, sticking to the main road, not harming anything here, and nothing would happen to us."

Her words aroused some vague, past memories of Arthur. This place was, weirdly, similar, very similar to any cultivator's own garden, where cultivators used gardens to plant their own herbs for their own elixirs.

This place strongly reminded him of that, especially that familiar scent of many medicinal herbs and flowers. If he didn't control himself, he would have darted there, plucking every single herb and flower from inside this heaven.

However, he was pretty sure of one thing, any medicinal garden for any cultivator was well secured. Planting herbs was a long task, that needed many conditions, plus a lot of time. cultivators usually leave the place for ages, before they return to collect their long awaited herbs.

To do so, and to make sure no intruder would trespass here, cultivators used to capture strong, very strong monsters, and bound them to the garden, to act as their protectors.

"It seems the rumors about this place are quite right," he muttered, in a soft voice, that was heard by everyone. The eyes of all were fixed upon him, especially Amelia, who said:

"I have gone inside for many times already, there is no danger here."

"Except when you try to get these herbs and flowers, right?" he corrected her, in his mesmerized melancholic tone.

"Yes, you are right, but why would we risk our lives for such herbs and flowers?" she said, in a determinant tone, like it was out of the question to even think about it.

"You are wrong," he muttered, as he now knew his luck was so great as it led him to here, "This place is a treasure trove for us."

His words were vague, quite incomprehensible to the three, but to the others, they knew what he meant. They recollected what he did with the plants and flowers in the cooking, a small addition that made all the difference.

Arthur's mind was full of way too complicated uses of these herbs and flowers. He wasn't aiming just to make food, that would be an insult to such a treasure, he aimed to start making elixirs, hoping that potion making rules here would also apply, like the same back in his world.

"Let's get down there," he said, pointing towards a point nearby the entrance, but not actually inside it. he knew the rules to stimulate the guardian of this place, and now after seeing this place, all his prior plans changed.
