((Yep))
"Fine, I'll hook you up with somebody. Jesus..."
The crystal's sound stops, and after a few minutes Icarus hears another voice.
"Hello, Icarus. I assume you're calling for Alice? She seems to have evaded our defenses, even resorting to killing her guard. But do not worry, we will send you her corpse," he says, his voice tainted with malice and his tongue sharp, with a slightly imperious tone as if he's used to being the boss.
"I assume you don't want the arcane seal then? Fine. We still have some gods who owe us a favour. I am sure heaven itself will be a much more secure place than this silly dwarven dungeon. If you guys don't want to fight your way through an entire pantheon of gods and angels, you will not lay a finger on her. Call of all your guards and whatever you have sent after her, and if I hear from her within the next 24 hours, the arcane seal will not go to heaven. If I find as much as a single bruise on her, you will pay the price. Vremis was no match for me, neither are you."
((It's not even a bluff. After what happened with Horus, the egyptian pantheon literaly owes us a favour))
The crystal begins to glow, and a projection expands across an area around the room. It shows the area around the other crystal, which appears to be in a hightech, yet small, room filled with monitors and other things.
Facing Icarus is The Bewitcher, leader of the Libera Arcana and Alucard's brother. His eyes are blood red and his teeth fanged, with pale white hair that extends down to his shoulders; obvious signs of vampirism.
"Your threats are noted, but I'm afraid that you will give us the Arcane Seal or else we will kill Alice. How about that?"
Healing does not seem to do anything, but after a while Sen can detect something... missing. Like what happened when Bartimaeus died, further examination proves that his soul has been removed from his body.
His shoulder shakes a small bit, and suddenly his lenses flare up to many different colors in a hysteria of panic. He leaps forward across the floor, dragging his leg across the carpet and breaking a vase when he reaches for support.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" he yells in panic.
