Chat Group For Magicians 32 The Dragon Insignia

My eyes are fixated into the Dragon Tattoo on my arm. Instead of the usual black, the tattoo is color gold accompanied by its red eyes. It was like a real dragon that coiled up in my arm. It looks menacing but at the same time, it looks amazing.

The Councilors slowly retract their hands and the light that appeared in their arms earlier slowly died out and vanished. I was surprised. Didn't insignias follow the pattern of becoming an item just like Moonlight? How come mine is a tattoo?

I looked at them with confusion but I did not ask. Its not my nature to ask all questions every time I wanted to ask something. Unless its too important, I won't ask. This matter is not important at all and since the form is different, I think magicians have different kinds of insignia whenever they pa.s.sed a test. Maybe the reason my insignia is just a tattoo instead of an item like the hairpin of Moonlight, is because I barely survived the test.

Zacharias stood up and look at my arm with the gold dragon tattoo. He was stunned at first but he composed himself again like nothing happened. He waved his hands on the tattoo and to my surprise, the tattoo disappeared on my arm!

"The insignia will appear whenever you wanted to. However, it won't appear if there is a person who is not a magician. The insignia is a secret and revealing it is not a good idea. Therefore, this formation concealment magic I cast on your insignia will help you hide that insignia. Only other fellow magician has the ability to look into your tattoo," Zacharias explained.

"Also, you can track your mana capacity without checking it on the insignia. Your tattoo insignia is like a gauge that will go full whenever you breakthrough the next stage of being a magician. Since you just started, the tattoo on your arm is not yet showing any visible changes that makes you able to see your mana capacity. However, if you practice daily, that changes will surely be visible," Inumaru added.

Zacharias returned to his seat and once again spoke.

"Since the ritual in your Insignia Awarding is done without any kind of trouble, you are free to go. Moonlight will escort you to the temple of the Oracle. The Oracle has something to tell you, so be sure to go there later on, okay dismissed!" Zacharias said and they stretched their palms together, forming a similar circle.

I just started to blink but then, the scenery returned into another view. I realized that I just returned from the surface after being able to get the insignia. I was baffled at first but I recovered and look at my arm. The tattoo is nowhere to be found but when I thought that I wanted to see the tattoo, it didn't take twice before the tattoo reappeared in my arm.

It was that simple? I flick my arm a bit and it returned to a normal arm without a slightest mark of the gold tattoo. As expected, for the magicians to use that kind of spell to hide a mere tattoo is somehow kind of normal now. They really wish to hide the existence of the magicians.

Outside the building, Moonlight and Itazura are playing a Dance Dance revo(1) arcade machine... wait... what the f*ck?! Where did the Dance Dance Revo arcade machine came from?! I don't remember seeing this one before when I came here but how come there is one right now?

The two were clearly challenging each other since both of them are competing. But my eyes almost bulge out what song they are competing with each other.

PARANOIA Survivor MAX (Oni)(2)...

Moreover in Oni mode... what the heck is going on? Looking in the screen, they are all casting perfect without a single miss. They have gathered quite a lot of people spectating their battle, amazed by their public performance. Before I knew it, the two of them finished the song and for the score is AAA and not a single miss...

Then, before I can spurt out blood, Moonlight noticed me.

"Hey, Kazuma, you done? Then we should go to the Oracle's temple then," Moonlight said and flicks her arm. With that, the Dance Dance Revo arcade machine disappeared and the crowd finally dispersed.

"Just what the heck are you two doing? Playing Dance Dance Revo?" I gave her a questioning look.

Also, how come Itazura is able to master that difficult song? Although I played it in the past, having a streak of AAA, no miss and all perfect are just not my part. I know its achievable if someone tried but I am not so hardworking and bored to achieve that kind of score. How come Itazura who is likely to have played Dance Dance Revo today for the first time able to master that song?

"Ah, we were just bored that is all. You took your time in there you know?" Moonlight said.

"Ah? How long did I spend my time inside the Council of Magicians anyway?" I asked.

"Hmm, we've been playing for around 3 hours so it should be six hours already," Moonlight said.

"Six..." I suddenly had a hard time believing I spent six hours? How come I felt like I just spent a few minutes inside the Council of Magicians? Does time in that building is twisted?

"Anyway, if you are done, lets get going and give the Oracle a visit. The Council have given you the go signal to visit the Oracle right? Lets go then!" Moonlight said and dragged me somewhere.

I sighed and let her drag me somewhere into an elevator platform similar to the elevator we took when we descended.

"Is this part of the underground part of the Tsutenkaku Tower?" I asked her.

"No, this a special area where only those with appointment with the Oracle can access. No one except us can enter that elevator and once we ride in there, we will be immediately sent into an illusionary s.p.a.ce that the Oracle has made. In short, we are no longer on Earth," Moonlight explained.

I gulped my saliva due to nervousness. Just how mighty is the oracle to be able to create a s.p.a.ce where it means that you are already able to escape Earth? I looked at my arm where the Dragon Insignia. I have a hint that this insignia is not a common one to see Zacharias saw a surprised look. Although I might be wrong, there might be a possibility I can't deny. Anyhow, I wanted to finish the visitation and go back home, if Moonlight said is true, I have yet to eat Lunch!
