"They may feel that way, but you must figure however how Magic had even been understood, before being implemented as it is today. Besides, why must I hide anything?" replied Travis before continuing on,"This specific kind of knowledge has not been seen for who knows how long. It would be a shame not to put any of this into use. Of course, this is just the scratching the surface and that rune there is the product of what I've only touched based with." Travis relaxed himself into the couch has sat in as he oversaw Yuno analyze his milestone of progress with the practically revered-engineered rune. Just has Yuno was appearing to give a suggestion about the rune however, Felix all of a sudden phased into reality with another robbed figure beside him; likely another fated recruit for their venture. Yuno had taken the opportunity to welcome their acquainted friend back and while Travis would have been willing to do the same in kind and query about their new friend, more company however appeared as suddenly as Felix had. And so did a whole lot of vulgar language too apparently. Two more individuals arrived through similar means like how Felix possessed but it seemed different. [i]Instantaneous[/i]. Some sort of recall spell? Travis unfortunately could not focus on this debatable question as one of the female newcomers of began shouting up a storm against Felix about breaking a criminal by the name of Nemo who was with her. What history that was between Felix and this, rowdy, individual seemed both fascinating and scary all at the same time. Felix quickly got down to explaining to the woman that Nemo was on his list, emphasizing why he was here in first place. However a murderer in their midst made Travis somewhat uncomfortable, especially given the cultists he had encountered with recently, and made him question how Nemo would 'behave' within their company. The unnamed woman, despite Felix's explanation, didn't seem to care much for the Arch-Magi's response and swiftly sent a knife between Felix's feet. She soon revealed an impressive array of sharp pointed objects within her opened jacket from where she could access from to send hurdling death to anyone unfortunate to stand her in way. Felix, in a surprisingly panicked manner, clarified that what he said was true and opted for Nemo to communicate this to the still unfazed she-devil. "Erm..." was all that Travis could muster up as a verbal response to everything that was going on. He shifted a stare from the scary lady with the knives, to a Nemo now playing negotiator, then to a seemingly cornered Felix, eventually to Felix's newest acquaintance whom appeared oddly fatigued and showing little involvement with the argument, and finally back to Yuno in hopes she had any idea what was now going on. But it was likely though she may have been just as lost as Travis was. Thankfully, the confrontation de-escalated when the furious-appearing woman stormed upstairs as if angered by the ordeal to which Travis guessed had to do with some history between she and Felix. A loud slam of an upstairs door nearly made Travis jump due to its violent sound vibrating throughout the mansion. Funnily enough, Travis was now more afraid her than Nemo. [i]Lovely[/i]. With everything cooled down, Felix finally took the moment to brief everyone with the basic rundown of the topic that had assembled everyone here - correction, [i]not everyone[/i]. Looking now embarrassed of the new situation, Felix decided to retire everyone to their rooms of their choosing with midnight before departing to acquire their next comrade through another one of his portals. With the portal closing behind the Arch-Magi, the lounge somehow appeared empty and quite despite its, possibly confused, occupants still present. Still recovering from the former unnerved sense that had befallen him with the armed intervention from before, Travis hesitated but eventually spoke up, "So...Anyone up for a quick jab at meet-n-greet before hittin' the hay?"
