Chapter 1426: First contact, an impasse

"Hmm?"
Luvia looked at a certain corner of the embankment. She motioned for Rin to come closer.
"Hey, Tohsaka Rin."
"What?"
Rin responded in an annoyed tone. She pointed at the river down there.
"That guy, something's not right."
"Huh?"
Rin unwillingly approached the edge of the bridge before pausing.
A man is currently down on one knee with his right palm on the ground. They couldn't see his visage because his back was turned.
They could feel inhuman magic power being emitted from the array of intricate magic formations the guy created.
That magic power is even scarier in nature than the distorted magic power leaked by the Class Cards.
Luvia and Rin recognized this magic power, it is on par with someone they know.
The creator of Ruby and Sapphire, one of the five known users of Magic, specifically, the user of the Second Magic, Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg.
The same person from the Clock Tower sent the duo to capture Class Cards.
No, they are positive he emanates the same magic power as one of the strongest magicians known in the magus world.
Granted, the duo could use Ruby and Sapphire to achieve a nigh-infinite level of magic power.
However, the mana granted by the Magic Dresses can only give them access to abilities limited by their imagination.
Comparing their magic powers is a practice in vain.
Truly powerful magicians have more than just quantity going for them. Their magic power had qualities that surpassed others.
They could feel the purity and potency of the magic power the mysterious guy is giving off.
More importantly, the guy is squatting near the point of the Class Card's Mirror World.
In other words, it is highly likely he is here to collect cards too.
The two exchanged heavy looks. The two stars flew over to the duo.
"Sapphire."
Luvia called the blue flying star.
"Looks problematic."
"No, we can't call it yet."
Rin said.
"He might be a magus from Fuyuki city who is just here to investigate the magical distortion."
"In any case, he is here to get the Class Cards!"
Luvia gnashed her teeth.
"Since that is the case..."
"Ah."
Rin continued.
"He is our enemy."
Ruby and Sapphire stayed silent.
"What do we do?"
Luvia asked.
"Need I say it?"
Rin laughed.
"We make contact!"
"If he is the enemy?"
Luvia asked.
"From the amount of magic power he is emitting, I don't think he is an easy foe."
"Talk first, fists later."
Rin shook her head.
"At least, I prefer fighting him outside the Mirror World than when we are busy collecting cards."
True.
It won't be funny if Wu Yan sneak attacks them while they're busy fighting crazy spirits in the Mirror Worlds.
Moreover, the upper-ups also told them that the Heroic Spirits in the Mirror Worlds are already waiting for them so they won't get any chance to get ready once they go in there.
It would be better to gauge if he is an enemy or not here in the real world.
If he is...
"We need info on him even if we might not be able to get rid of him."
Luvia agreed with Rin for once.
"Okay, let's go."
"Get ready, Ruby!"
"If things get dicey then transform me, okay?"
The flying stars known as Ruby and Sapphire nodded.
Wu Yan wrapped up his investigation.
He successfully tracked down the Mirror World's location and dimensions.
Now, he just needs to finish devising a way to enter the Kaleido World. Then, the quest can begin at last.
The magic storm he conjured up was slowly calming down. He released his hand and opened his eyes.
"That is that, I guess."
Wu Yan looked at the dark sky.
"Time to go home."
Alas, he won't be getting home early tonight. Fate has something else in store for him.
"Hey, you there, let's talk."
Wu Yan was going to use a teleport spell when someone called out to him.
Wu Yan turned around with a frown.
Then, they saw each other under the dark but slightly starry night.
The air turned still.
Luvia and Rin are searching for this guy's info in their memories but they couldn't recognize him.
They can't possibly recognize this Universal jumper.
Wu Yan knitted his brows when he saw the duo.
He knew them.
Especially Rin, he even knew her three sizes.
Combining it with the plot he watched. He knew why they were here.
Wu Yan sighed.
"What's the matter?"
"I am going to get straight to the point."
Rin asked.
"Are you here for the Class Cards?"
Rin gave herself away when she asked this question but she is sure Wu Yan already can guess why they were here anyway.
Wu Yan chuckled when Rin's straightforward personality rang true with the version of her in the original work.
"Bingo."
Wu Yan admitted.
"I am here for the cards."
The duo started raising their guards.
"Are you a magician? Which facility do you belong to?"
Wu Yan grinned.
"I am a mage but you two don't have to worry about my affiliation. I don't have one."
"Huh?"
Rin nodded.
"Fine, can you please let go of your quest for the cards?"
"Sorry..."
Wu Yan shrugged.
"I have my own situation. Don't make this harder than it already is, okay?"
The environment took on a sinister mood.I Agreex
