Cheater: Second Sky Adventure

44. One month Later.

"what's going on?" Leo did not understand the situation that had befallen him.

"sir suddenly fell unconscious. I'm worried if anything happens to master! Thank goodness you're all human!" phinix's eyes glazed over Leo's previous state.

Leo got up from Phinix's lap and checked things out.

Nothing changed with the situation in the room. Only his head felt quite sick.

Leo looked at the keris that was in his hand. 'god weapon?'

Leo looked away and found a way to leave the room.

"how do we get out of here?"

"didn't we get through the stairs before?" Phinix tells Leo the only way to access the room.

"if I go that way again, maybe I'll go crazy for the distance I have to travel."

Leo then recalled that the altar had some magic runes.

He checked to try to obtain the teleportation magic rune. Until it was as expected, there was one teleportation magic rune.

Leo examined the rune and finally found out if the rune will be active when the flow of mana enters the middle of the altar.

"come there! I found a way for us to get out without going through the fucking stairs!" Leo reached out to join hands so that as he activated the magic rune, he and Phinix did not separate.

Phinik approached and grabbed Leo's hand.

Leo begins to flow mana towards the middle of the altar.more precisely where Leo pulls the keris.

After a few seconds Leo flowed mana, the magic circle lit up with a white light.

The light gets brighter until Leo and Phinix close their eyes.

Immediately Leo and Phinix opened their eyes and found themselves outside.

Leo checked the situation and found out their location was at the foot of Phoenix mountain.

"there's someone I need to meet!" Leo recalled the guild master who was waiting for him.

Leo and Phinix walked towards where the guild master was waiting for Leo. But after arriving, he did not find the guild master. Even after spreading mana to detect the existence of living beings.

" Where is he? Is he back in Mainter?" Leo assumed that the guild master had abandoned him.

"mister looking for who?" Phinix is curious about the person Leo is looking for.

"i'm looking for my friend! He was waiting here when we fought. But he's not here anymore. Maybe he's back in town."

Leo decided to return.

The goal now is to return to the city of Argus. Leo wears the mask as before and Phinix uses the veil. Still in Leo's robes.

'for now it's best to get clothes for Phinix first!'

They travel by flying. However, Phinix did not use the form of a bird. But stick with the human form and fly with mana as Leo does.

Until they reached the city of Argus and entered the city.

Arriving at the store, Leo is greeted directly by the store manager.

As if getting to know the customer who came, the manager immediately made sure that his guess was correct.

"sir Leonardo?"

"yes? What's up?" Leo responded to the manager's remark. 'what's the matter with the manager?'

Knowing his conjecture was correct, the manager heaved a sigh of relief. "huh... Thank goodness you came back here. It seems like my decision not to sell your order clothes is the right course of action!"

Leo was quite confused by what the manager was talking about. "why would my clothes be sold? It's not even a month!"

"uh uh? You kidding? It's even been a month and a week!" the manager is upset with Leo's words that are like forgetting time.

"huhah... You're the one joking. How could it be past a month and a week? I even just left this store one week ago." Leo felt himself being bullied by the manager. Because that's what Leo feels.

"mister!" Phinix roused Leo from his laughter to see the serious expression of the manager.

"ee... Don't you?" seeing the serious expression of the manager, Leo began to doubt the truth.

The manager patted his forehead in response to Leo's behavior. "whatever it is! Importantly, you have already passed one month for repayment. But just calm down! I still haven't sold it out of your respect! You will get a fine."

Leo was confused by what happened! But he could only obey because he also began to doubt the difference in his time and the outside world.

"for repayments and fines for late repayment, all you have to pay is 90 gold coins." the manager calculates the fees and fines that Leo has to pay.

Leo took out 90 gold coins to pay and asked the manager something. "what has happened in the last month?"

The manager starts to remember about an event that he knows. "hmm... Either this is right or wrong. There's a rumor that a talented witch disappeared a month ago. There were even some S rank adventurers who had come to the city of Argus for several weeks. But I don't know who the witch is that disappeared. Besides nothing happened. Everything was going normally as usual. "

The manager then went to pick up Leo's shirt.

'lost witch? S rank adventurers come here?' Leo thought about the clue and thought that the missing witch was him. And the S rank adventurer was a Party Twin Tea Party that was trying to find him.

The manager has returned and given 12 robes to Leo's order. Leo then opened one to check the quality of the workmanship of the store.

After examining the robe, Leo was astonished by the results that exceeded his expectations. All the designs fit what he thought. Even the logo on the back looks really cool.

Leo then left and decided to go straight back to the city of Mainter without stopping by the Duke Gustaf residence.

"it looks like we're going straight back to Mainter city! Are you ready for Phinix? This time it will be a long trip." Leo tried to ask Phinix's opinion.

"i am always ready with whatever you command. But why not let me use the Phoenix form and fly up Mainter city faster?" Phinix was curious about why Leo would not allow himself to be transformed into a bird.

"no! That would make a lot of chaos. And your existence won't be a secret." Leo will only allow Phinix to use the form of Phoenix if in urgent circumstances. Because the existence of the Phoenix that has evolved is an ace for Leo.

" i understand sir! " Phinix bowed respectfully to Leo.

" well! We're leaving now!" Said Leo while flying but not high. Even if seen, Leo is like jumping with a long and fast term.

Phinix nodded and followed Leo behind.

'this is an unexpected event. Looks like I can't visit the capital for now. In my absence, the kingdom's counter stronghold would be even more daring to make a move. I must restore your existence first.'
