The Explorers of the Universe

Book of Mantras

Asteria and Viana did not want to miss the opportunity and trust of the Prince. Every time they go home from school, they go to the library to read and study obsolete books and documents that have been kept secret for hundreds of years.

Bu Surah who heard the story of Asteria and Viana was relieved that this problem did not extend. Instead they got exclusive access from Prince Sagi to learn everything in the secret room. Ms. Surah does not need to feel anxious and anxious anymore. The permission of the Prince is a green card that no one can dispute.

They have been working for a month. Once a week Asteria and Viana reported the results of the surgery. The story of the past kingdoms is becoming more and more exposed.

This week Asteria explained about the hole in the ocean. In the hole are stored objects that have magic power. The items fell when the ship carrying them was hit by a huge storm. The ship and everything in it sank in that spare.

“Interesting. If we can get it, we can use it to fight the Sky Force. Then, besides what else do you get?” prince Sagi asked Asteria.

“There is also a legend about a large wall within the ocean. There is a sword belonging to a knight in antiquity. No one ever got it, because the wall was so big and extended in the ocean. No one had ever found on which side the sword was stored,” Asteria replied.

Prince Sagi was more interested in the results obtained by Asteria. Then Viana handed over three books in front of Prince Sagi.

“These are books about spells, Prince. I'm not the heir to the Mantra. I can't activate every spell that's here. Maybe this book will be very useful for the Prince. Ms. Surah has allowed me to take her for Prince,”, Viana said.

Prince Sagi accepted it. These books were written in writing that is used today, but with ancient words and language that are rarely used. The three books were covered with a leather cover that was still strong.

In the content, the writing ink has faded a lot but still can be read. Prince Sagi opened them one by one. He felt that the books were very valuable treasures.

On some sheets there are mantra writings. There are also equipped with strange symbols such as fire circles, stone fragments, bow arrows, and more. There are also images of animals with very terrible and powerful manifestations, such as monsters.

“Excellent,” murmured Prince.

In addition to the discoveries of Asteria and Viana, Queen also found a small glass box containing grains of sand in it. The sand powder never remained silent even though the glass box was kept quietly. The sand powder floated like it wanted to get out.

The Queen handed the powder to Prince Sagi the day before. The Queen herself secured a spell book that she wanted to learn on her own.

“How about that wall, Prince? When can I get out? I've done my job. I hope the Prince wants to make my dream come true even if it's only for a little while. I want to look around for one day and then come back again to this kingdom,” said Asteria.

“Patience first. The timing is not right. The Heirs of the Mantra are currently being gathered. We have not even got half of it. Hopefully the Heirs of the Spell can we collect according to the amount needed, and on time,” explained Prince Sagi.

“Good Prince. I hope the Prince keeps that promise,” said Asteria.

“That's for sure,” reply Prince Sagi. “We have to prepare a lot of things. We must build strength from threats. My gut tells me the attack is really coming. We need to be vigilant. Right now our condition is not strong enough to resist the attack,” Prince Sagi revealed it without a sense of burden. He already felt Asteria and Viana understood his condition and burden.

“Good, Prince. Can we help you again?” ask Asteria.

“You just continue studying those books. There's still a lot you need to read. I'm not staying silent. I'll keep an eye on the Royal Warriors who are training. Ensuring war equipment is continually being made. And of course learn the books you brought from that secret room,” said Prince Sagi.

“Good, Prince. We are happy to finish it,” said Asteria.

“So far you've worked well. I hope you didn't betray me. I trust you,” said Prince Sagi.

“Siap, Prince.,” Asteria and Viana replied simultaneously.

“Starting today you guys call me Sagi, just.”

“No Prince. We will still call the Prince,”, Viana said.

“No. My request. If you fear anyone will find out, call me Prince in public and others. At a time like this, just call me Sagi. Our age is not much different, right?” ask Prince Sagi. All this time he missed his friends very much. He felt that Asteria and Viana could be made friends, indifferent even if only a commoner.

“Good, Prince. I mean, Sagi,” replied Asteria.

Prince Sagi returned to the three books Viana had handed over. He opened a third book that he had not checked. This book has no pictures. Writings only. And thinner.

In the middle of the page, there is a short article. Underneath it was a candle stamp and the name of Luid Cornius. Sagi felt that the name was familiar to him. He stroked the candle.

Encouraged by curiosity, Sagi read the writing slowly until it was finished.

As he finished the last word he did not understand, a bluish light scattered to all sides of the page. The light struck Sagi, Asteria and Viana quite forcefully.

The light disappeared instantly.

Sagi stood up with a bit of pain. Asteria was still on the floor and felt dizzy. Viana felt very weak. The light was like wiping out all the calories in his body.

Sagi helped Asteria stand up. Then they helped Viana stand up and sit in her chair. They're back in their original position.

“What was that?” asteria asked with a hold of dizziness in her head. “Why is it so fast and strong?”

“I don't know. This means it shows that this book holds enormous power,” said Sagi. “You rest in the guest room. I'll ask the waiter for help and drop you off.”

Sagi called the royal servants to take Asteria and Viana to the guest room and check on her health. Asteria and Viana were helped to walk and taken to the guest room according to the Prince's orders.

Sagi who has a stronger body and energy is able to survive and not experience pain as severe as Asteria and Viana. He was still sitting in his chair and was able to go to the room without the help of a maid.

Sagi stood up from his chair. Although not as bad as Asteria and Viana, he still felt weak.

Sagi tidied up the books and prepared to take them to the room. But how surprised he was when he was about to close the third book he last opened.

The inscription on the stamped page and inscribed with the name of Luid Cornius is missing. It was erased perfectly. Sagi flipped through page after page, not finding another page that had a stamp and a name mark. It's still that page, not covered by another page.

“Who deleted the writing?” muttered Sagi in confusion. His eyes looked around. Slender. No one's erasing it.

After all, the writing had been attached to the old paper sheet very strongly. What kind of eraser can remove it. And there were no traces of smear or scratch on the old paper.

Sagi still did not understand. He decided to walk to his room to rest. It's afternoon.

Unwittingly, Prince Sagi who is an Heir to the Spell has activated a spell that will take them on a journey never imagined. The last book he opened was the Book of Spell which was very important in determining the destiny and future of mankind on Planet Sankz.
