Chapter 498: More Incoming
Two out of the five well-coordinated mages have been defeated. There's only three more, but I don't need to help. Still, if there's a chance, I won't miss it.
Only the ice mage, fire mage, and lightning mage left. Their defense should be easy for the werewolves to break.
Maybe I should help them by killing the Lightning Woman first. She has the most firepower.
While those three are in shock when they see two of them got defeated, I threw Reizpear at the Lightning Woman and killed her. Leaving the Fireman and Iceman left.
I approached the Lightning Woman's body to retrieve Reizpear, and left this area. Only two more. There's no need for so many of us to be here. And so, I left this place and do other things. Watching the enemies and my friends fighting.
I will watch and see as much as possible. Are we winning? How many casualties? And also, to see if the bodies lying on the ground are truly dead or not.
Right now, the enemy no longer has the advantage in number. We have killed half of them. I don't think the others will need my help, but I will still watch the battlefield.
.....
Oh? Seems like Jewel has reached expert level in her lightning element. She defeated another expert level lightning mage on her own. Jewel also didn't use her Beastform magic.
Well, if she did, everyone will know her identity. After all, there's no other Beastform mage who would pick a rhinoceros as their transformation. Unless they awakened their Beastform element some time after watching Jewel fought. I think they will be popular soon.
Now I started imagining that there's an army of rhinoceros coated with not just lightning. But also coated in fire, ice, or even flying rhinoceros with wind magic in the war against the cult. That will be hilarious.
I wonder if there will be an army of hippopotamus. That will be even funnier.
Wait, now is not the time for my imagination to run wild. Now that Jewel has became even stronger, the chance of us losing the fight against the cult will be smaller. Though Jewel and those who participated in the tournament might not participate in the war soon. I will try my best to make sure they won't get involved and can just focus on the tournament.
From Consenza, Celestine will participate. She will disguise herself so the cult won't notice her. though it's just adjusting the size of her breasts.
From Varadis, Julia, old man Henry's daughter, will participate. Those two, and the mages they take with them, will be a great match against Angela and the others. I heard that those two will not hold back. Just what we expect them.

Though I hope they won't get injured too much in case the battle still not over yet after the tournament is finished.
Oh, I found someone playing dead. It's the companion of the woman I saw today. Let's kill him. He must be wondering why this happen while playing dead. He's just here because his big sister wanted to join the cult so she can be an expert level mage. But that chance will never come.
I pity him to come here not by his own will. But the fact that he's here doesn't change. He will be killed just like the others here.
I approached the guy, and he's visibly shaken. He never thought that he would hear someone walking casually to his location in the middle of a big battle. Seems like he's just a coward who had no choice but to be a criminal under that criminal woman. Well, he will still be killed.
I raised my Reizpear with the blade pointing down, and pierced the man's chest from the back.
"Ugh... Why...?"
"Hmm? Why what?" I asked.
"Why... did this... happen?"
"Why do you think this won't happen? You decided to ally yourself with a criminal who has a bounty in her head. And you decided to accompany her to join the Evil God Cult. Why do you think you won't be killed?" I asked.
"...This is... the Evil... God... Cult...?"
Or at least that's what we called it. After Shirley's speech back in Melk after the Stampede, we somehow get everyone to call the cult as Evil God Cult.
"Even if you don't know, you should have known that they are evil. They killed your other companion today. You saw it yourself, right? After all, the person who did it killed your ally in front of you. Well, your life will end soon. No more questions. Goodbye."
I pulled Reizpear out of his back, and the man's heart no longer beating.
...Is there any point to me talking to a dead guy? Maybe it's because I'm so lonely now. It has been so long since I don't have Victoria by my side. I wonder if her research will bear fruit?
I can only put my trust in her and Marie. They should be able to figure something out.
Now, I need to continue watching the battlefield. There are still some people playing dead. No one noticed that they are still alive. That's why it's my job to kill them.
Oh, there are quite a lot of them playing dead. Most of them are the criminals who are going to be recruited by the cult. But there are some people with explosive devices in their mouth playing dead. They are willing to take their own life, but still choose to play dead? I'll help them so they won't be playing anymore. They will die for real.
I also watched how the others are doing. Seems like there are some who faces quite capable mages. But our side are much more capable. Which mean as long as the enemy is not artificial master level mages or a real master level mage, we can defeat anyone. Though if they put children or innocent people as shields, we won't be able to fight well. It's a good thing that Sara and I can snipe from afar. This way, we can target the real enemies even if they took hostages.
Even now, Sara is sniping the enemies from afar. Using earth magic to hide herself underground, she sniped the enemy one by one. She will be important for the war. Maybe I need to go back to college to see if there's any talented sniper as well. I'll ask Sara later.
As I finished taking care of all those who were playing dead, the others also finished the last remaining enemies. No survivor among the enemies. Only dead bodies.
Everyone then gathered around me. No casualties at all. Only some small injuries that don't even need to be healed by Kayla. Just some bandages and it will be fine. Though I still tell Kayla to heal everyone with Area Heal.
"Why? They can be healed without my magic," Kayla asked.
"I know. But you will participate in the tournament. Just having a bandage will make the opponents think of them as your weakness. Also, some of the smarter cult members will start guessing why you get injured. Why would someone who participate in the tournament be injured when there's only weak monsters near the capital? They will start consider that fact with the fact that many cult members have gone missing from the capital. They will start thinking that you are involved with the missing cult members," I said.
"That's true. I'll use Area Heal. Everyone, gather together. Though the werewolves don't have to since they can heal themselves," Kayla said.
Kayla used Area Heal and everyone in the area had their injuries healed. Even my fatigue is slowly disappearing. Although I don't feel much fatigue, it will still add up if I'm not rested.
"Okay. All the people here have been defeated. Let's wait here for a while to see if there will be more enemies coming or not. Tell me if you want to go home. I'll open a portal if you want to," I said.
None of them want to go home as they started chatting and relaxing. Even in the middle of dead bodies. I guess I should take care of the dead bodies first.
I asked some werewolves to gather all the dead bodies in one place, and then I opened a portal and drop them all into the ocean. They won't be missed.
"Are you sure that you don't smell anyone escaping?" I asked Jack.
"No, my king. No one escaped. All of them have been killed," Jack said.
"Alright. Let's wait here for a while, and if no one sense anyone coming, I will return you. As for me, I will camp here tonight," I said.
Now, there's no more dead body. Though the smell of blood is still thick. I only use air magic to block the smell for me and the humans. As for the werewolves, it's a bad idea to block their sense of smell. Let them suffer!
Actually, they enjoy the smell of blood. Especially if they are the blood of the enemies they defeated. What a crazy species.
Just as we were relaxing while playing card games, Shelia reacted.
"Someone coming. Two people. From over there," Shelia said.
I used Divine Vision to see the location she pointed to, and see two people walking this way. And those two noticed that I'm looking at them.
I guess the night is not over yet.
Chapter 499: More of Them!?
I looked to the location Shelia is pointing at with my Divine Vision, and see two people walking this way. They calmly walk in the forest in the middle of the night. That alone is enough to be suspicious of them, but there's more.
"Two people incoming. A man and a woman. Both have mohawk and they noticed that I'm looking at them," I said to the others.
"Two artificial master level mages? Are they flying?" Kayla asked.
"No. They are walking."
"A man and a woman... at least they are not children, right? Let's kill them," Celestine said.
"Obviously, we will kill them. Other than the werewolves who can't wait to fight, the mages should hide and wait for the right moment to attack. They will still notice you're here, but they will focus more on me and the werewolves," I said.
Kayla and the other mages went into hiding on top or behind the trees. They won't attack yet, but they are prepared to raise their defensive magic as quick as possible.
.....
The enemies are master level mage. Artificial ones. So, our defense won't be good enough if they targeted us. But it should be enough to delay their attack from reaching us. Even if it's just less than a second, it could be life-saving.
"It's just two enemies. We can just fight one on one, right?" Shelia asked.
"It's too dangerous. The previous mohawk kid that I fought has two elements. One master level wind element, and he is also an expert level healer. If any one of the enemies is also a healer, it would be difficult. Even worse if both of them are. And since they are walking, we still don't know what their elements are," I said.
"But we are werewolves, my king. We are the race of warriors. We want to fight as much as possible," Jack said.
Right. If I keep telling them to do something they don't like, they will end up disobeying me in the future. I guess I need to let them have their freedom to fight once in a while.
"Fine. All of you werewolves will fight one of them. While I will fight the others. As for how you fight your opponent, I don't care. Whether you want it to be a one on one, or if you want to fight using numbers, I don't care. Just don't die, and win," I said.
Jack and the werewolves smiled happily hearing that. As for Shelia, she didn't even move from my side. It looks like she doesn't have the intention to join with the other werewolves.
"You're still here?" I asked.
"The other can take care of themselves. I'm your contracted monster. I'll stay with you unless you want me to leave," Shelia said.
"Okay. Hey, werewolves! Man or woman? Who will you fight?" I asked the werewolves.
"Which one is stronger?" one of the werewolves asked.
If you own a mouse, you have to play this game. No Install. Play for free.Panzer.Quest strategy game
"I don't know. They hadn't use magic yet."
The werewolves then started discussing, and they finally decided on fighting the man. Which mean Shelia and I, along with the others, will target the woman.
I had Shelia inform Kayla and the others before the enemies arrive. They still walk casually in the forest and they don't seem to be in a hurry.
I also look around the area in case there will be more enemies coming, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Just for recruiting members, having two artificial master level mages is already too much. Add the expert level mages, and it's just too much for recruiting criminals.
Shelia has returned, and the enemies are already within sight.
"Hmm? Where are the others?" the man asked.
He must be asking about the other cult members here. Well, they are all killed.
I was about to answer, but Jack and two other werewolves quickly charged at the man to attack him.
Three at the same time? I thought it would just be one of them. Well, I will...
Wait! I was wrong! There are more people coming! Three more! Making it five mohawks!
"Three more incoming! Fight as you see fit!"
No more need for plans. The enemies are too close. Just the two in front of us can kill many already.
Now that they heard my warning, the others no longer need to hide and attacked the man and woman in front of us first.
"I will take care of this man!" Jack said.
"Just don't die!" I said as I run to the sky with Shelia next to me.
Behind us, Angela is also flying. I need to get Angela to delay one enemy as long as possible.
"Angela! Go over there and fight the fatty mohawk! He's alone, so you don't need to worry about other enemies!" I said.
Angela then turned to the location I pointed to fight the fat mohawk. As for Shelia and I, we will face the one coming here by flying.
He's obviously a wind mage. Since I'm afraid of what the cult will know if he escapes, I need to kill him. As for the other mohawks, I don't think they will be as fast as this guy.
Let's hope that he's just a wind element mage, and doesn't have other elements. And let's kill him instantly.
"Shelia, don't hold back! Go all out and kill him with one hit!" I said.
"Okay! Should we attack from distance?" Shelia asked.
"No. Attack him directly."
I have fought artificial master level mages several times. And I know one of their weakness. It's only something that any close combat fighter can do.
None of the artificial master level mage would expect that we will fight in close combat. No matter how much the Professor has increased their physical strength, none of the mohawks would think that they will be attacked from close range. Unless their enemies are monsters.
It's because this is a world of magic. And no one knows that there's other way to fight without using magic.
The artificial master level mage would notice us coming, but they won't use any defensive magic right away. They prefer to watch and learn of their enemies first.
And the human enemy they have fought, all of them were mages. They would use magic from distance and they won't get too close to the enemy. That's why the mohawks who are confident with their magic don't need to raise their shield until their enemies started casting their magic.
Just like right now.
The man we are facing doesn't even care that we are approaching as he continues flying toward our direction. He is waiting for us to cast our magic so he can defend himself.
But he will never sense our magic. Because we won't use them! I can already use Air Steps without using air magic. Just purely with Aura.
I only use air magic for breathing right now. And it's not even an offensive magic. As for Shelia, her magic is just her regeneration magic. Which help her heal herself. That's why the enemy didn't react to our appearances at all until we are too close to him.
As we finally reached within three meters of the mohawk, he finally stopped flying forward and just stay stationary in the air with his magic. But he didn't use defensive magic. He must be thinking that we are here to ask him something.
And when Shelia and I are getting even closer, the mohawk finally noticed something wrong since we didn't stop. I pulled Reizpear back with both hands, and Shelia pulled her arms back.
We attacked the mohawk together before he could even react. No matter how strong your body is, if you never experience any real fight, it will be useless.
Both Shelia and I attacked the mohawk diagonally as we made a huge cross scar on his body which killed him instantly. Though I just created one attack with my spear, it was considerably deeper than Shelia's attack which left ten scars on the mohawk's chest.
"That's one down. Four more to go," I said.
"What should I do?" Shelia asked.
"We will split up here. You will go check on the werewolves, while I go and check the others. As for Angela's side, leave it for later," I said as we split up in the sky.
Shelia returned back to where the werewolves are. Now that I didn't fight the woman with mohawk, all the werewolves are facing two expert level mages at the same time. As long as they didn't get killed in an instant, it should be fine.
For now, I will go and check our wind mages' side. Shirley, Wendy, and Veronica are all there facing a mohawk with fire element.
Their wind is not strong enough. In fact, the wind got pushed back and made the fire bigger. They need someone from other elements to help them. That's why I need to support them first.
As for Kayla and the others, they are still on the way. Though Sara already helped the three wind mages with her sniping skill.
If I'm going there, Kayla and the other doesn't need to help. Let's have them split up so they can help Angela or the werewolves.
Chapter 500: Boosting Me Forward with Wind
"Kayla! Go help the werewolves or Angela. I'll help Shirley. The werewolves seem to be facing tough opponents. Two of them. And Angela's opponent seems to be stronger than average artificial master level mage," I said.
"Alright. Which way is to Angela, and which way to the werewolves?"
I caught up with Kayla and the others who are rushing toward Shirley's location, and tell them to not chase anymore. And I pointed to where Angela is, and where the werewolves are. For the werewolves, they just need to go back to where they came from.
"Jewel and I will help Angela. The others can go back to where the werewolves are. How strong are the two enemies the werewolves are facing?" Kayla asked.
"About the same level as average mohawk. But they are cautious. That's why the werewolves are having problem," I said.
Unlike my fight before, the werewolves unable to get too close to the enemies as the enemies already put up their guards before the werewolves reached them. And once the werewolves hit their defense, the two mohawks attacked them with magic.
Some werewolves got injured, but their regeneration skill healed them fast. Still, if they are not careful, they would die.
.....
With Shelia and the others helping them, it should be okay.
Now, I will go to Shirley's location. She's there with the other wind mages, Wendy and Veronica. It's a good thing the enemy is not a fire mage. But he's an earth mage. And his defense is most likely impregnable by wind magic of a lower level.
If I'm not wrong, Shirley's other element is ice, while Wendy's other element is fire. But they were all not good enough to break the defense of the enemy. As for Veronica, she doesn't have other elements. There's nothing they have that could destroy the enemy's defense.
Even Sara's bullet won't be enough to pierce his defense. Kayla is approaching her currently and told her to go back and help the werewolves.
I finally see Shirley and the others even without Divine Vision. And they also noticed me coming.
"His element?" I asked the three about the enemy they are facing. I hope he just has one element.
"So far, he only used earth magic. Even our wind magic combined is not enough to destroy his wall," Wendy said.
"I'll take care of it. But it seems like I will need to add more speed. Push me with your wind!" I said.
With my command, the three stopped attacking. And all of them used wind magic to give me a boost as I transformed Blobbies into a drill.
"UWAAA!! TOO FAAAAST!"
With three expert level wind mages, my speed, even if I don't move my legs, is already faster than Spot's max speed. Which is scary. But this might be the only way I can destroy his wall.
Seems like I don't even need to spin the drill. I'll just transform it into a huge pointy shield so I can destroy the wall.
With this speed, even if I cover my arms with Aura, I will still end up with broken arms. That's why I changed my posture. From holding the shield in the middle, to holding the shield on the side, while using my feet to step on the middle of the shield. This way, at the moment of impact, in case it's not enough to break the wall, I will add more power by using a drop kick to add more damage to the wall. I'm more confident with my legs' strength than my arms.
I looked at the man inside the Earth Wall, and he's also looking at me. Though he can't see through the wall like me, he can still sense something is approaching with high speed. But he doesn't know what it is. Since it's not magic.
Maybe he knows that magic is used, but he doesn't know what is coming. After all, the magic is only used to push me forward as fast as possible.
It's finally here. The moment of impact. I need to time it carefully.
The pointy part of the shield has touched the wall, and it's still digging in. I need to time it perfectly so the moment my momentum slowed down; I need to kick the shield forward.
The thickness of the wall is about one meter. If it's a normal wall, or magic from a lower level earth mage, I can destroy it easily. But this is a master level magic. Even if it's an artificial one, it is still powerful.
But thanks to the boost given by our wind mages, I managed to pierce through half of the wall. Now, I just need to kick it once the shield stopped moving forward. But maybe that's not enough.
"Push me even more!" I shouted. And the three wind mages... no. Two wind mages boosted me. Shirley and Wendy.
As for Veronica, she's preparing something. Still, two wind mages giving me a boost while I giving a dropkick to the shield is enough to break through the wall.
Not just that. The shield not only making an opening, but it continues going forward to the enemy.
I have let go of the shield after kicking it. But before letting it go completely, I transformed it into a form that I'm very used to. A spear.
The shield, now is the spear, is flying toward the enemy. The enemy was shocked to see a shield transformed into a spear as it tries to pierce him. The man quickly raised another wall. This wall is not as strong as the previous wall, but it still managed to stop Blobbyspear.
The spear is just a few millimeters away from his face as the wall stopped the spear in the middle. Just a little push and I can kill him.
I run toward the spear about to punched the butt of the spear, but the man is about to step back and dodged it. I'm still too slow.
The good thing is, Veronica finally used her magic to push the spear even before I reached the spear. Making the spear move forward and stab the enemy before he dodged it. That was nice.
"Good job, Veronica! Though how did you know that my attack will be stopped?" I asked.
"We fought him first before you came. And he seems to have a lot of experience in fighting. That's why I thought he would use another wall to stop your attack. If you didn't transform the shield to a spear in time, we won't win," Veronica said.
As expected of someone with the most experience. Even Shirley and Wendy didn't expect the enemy to put another wall. Still, if it's only one person who pushed me forward instead of two, we won't win.
"Seems like we need to gain more experience. Even from watching, we can gain some experience," Wendy said.
"That's something that you have to find on your own. Now that this guy has died, I will go help the werewolves," I said.
"What about us? Are there any other enemies?" Shirley asked me.
"You can come with me to where the werewolves are, or you can help Angela. Though I don't think she will need much help, you can gain some experience by watching, right? The werewolves seem to be in trouble even when Celestine and the others helping them. I need to go there as fast as possible. I'll open a portal to where Sara is so we can get there faster," I said.
"I'll go with you. How much trouble do they having?" Shirley asked.
"...Shit. Some of the werewolves are already injured, and their regeneration skill is not enough to heal themselves. I should have gotten Kayla over there instead. Let's go!" I said.
I opened a portal to where Sara is sniping the enemy, and quickly charged to the enemies. Some of the werewolves had their limbs severed and their regeneration skill is not enough. They will die soon.
The enemies, two mohawks, a man and a woman, are protecting each other's back. The woman is an ice mage, while the man is a fire mage. And their teamwork is much better than the werewolves who prefer to fight their own way.
I should have taught the werewolves how to fight together. I'm a failure of a king. Or at least that's what I thought. For the werewolves, I seem to be a good king since I'm bringing them to many fights.
The three wind mages fly toward the enemies as well to help. And while we're moving, two huge Earth Wall appear on the left side and the right side of the enemies. They are Celestine's magic.
Celestine then put her hands together as the two Wall approached the enemies to crush them in between them. Everyone thought that the fight will be over, but that's wrong.
The woman used ice magic to destroy the wall on the left, while the man used fire magic to destroy the wall on the right. Just like that, the two enemies are still alive.
But they have fought for so long. Their mana should be depleted soon and they will die.
I can't wait for that. There will be more casualties if that happens. That's why I need to get there fast.
Chapter 501: The Enemy is a Summoner
I peeked at Angela's side, and she should be able to defeat her opponent soon with the help of Kayla and Jewel as her supports. If she can finish her battle sooner, she will be able to help me here. Though I hope we can defeat the enemies right away before Angela helped us.
These two mohawks are too strong. Even several expert level mages, Shelia, and the werewolves, are not enough to defeat just two of them.
The enemies' magic is just average. I mean average among the artificial master level mages that we fought. Not weak enough to be defeated in an instant, and not strong enough to last long. But their teamwork is dangerous. It's as if they knew each other even long before they got experimented. They had a good teamwork even before that.
I guess it's just like the previous five expert level mages we fought. There will be more enemies with great teamwork that we will have to face. We also need good teamwork.
But the thing is... I mostly work alone. Even if I gave a command so we can have a teamwork, it's mainly focused on me being the tank, or made the finishing move. And for the future mission, I will also mostly work alone. That's why it's not really teamwork.
The one who can put everyone to good use is Kayla. I should have asked her to come here instead. She's a good leader.
Other than Kayla, Jewel and Shirley can also lead. Kayla is smart from the start. Jewel is my disciple, but she has better vision of the others since she can't do much alone like I can. As for Shirley, she's a princess. She was born to lead, and have been taught many things before we met.
.....
Next time, I'll just watch them instead of leading. I'll make three groups. Each group will be led by one of the three. That will be good for them to learn more about tactics in battle.
I heard from Albert that there will be a team battle during the tournament. But I think I will miss it, so I won't know. I'll just leave it to Kayla and the others.
I'm finally arrive to help the werewolves. Three werewolves are dead already, and two others got fatally injured. Their regeneration skill is not enough to heal them. One of the fatally injured is Jack. I need to stop the bleeding first so when Kayla came here, he will be healed.
Jack has been stabbed by multiple Ice Spears. And the Ice Spears also froze some area around the part that he got stabbed. I quickly pulled out the spears, and sew his body with Blobbythreads. Without Victoria, I can't waste too much Blobbies. But I need her to be with Marie. At least I need to heal the wound and melt the frozen part before Jack dies of frostbite.
"Candy, melt the ice with your fire magic. Don't use big magic so you won't hurt Jack," I said to Candy.
"It's fine if it hurts. The pain will wake me up," Jack said. He's acting tough.
"Too much pain will kill you. Your regeneration skill is not enough to heal you. For now, take some rest. Once you're rested enough, and if we haven't defeated the enemies yet, you can come back," I said before I run toward the enemies.

Their teamwork is too good. But I need to be the main focus of the fire mage. It's because my slash can cut fire. As for ice, I can cut it as well. But it's a little harder than fire. I need to do something that will defeat the enemies as soon as possible.
The one with fire magic is the mohawk man. And he's standing back to back with the woman. From my position right now, he's on the left. Let's do it.
While the enemies are distracted by the werewolves and the others, I need to approach them.
I raised my right hand, and then pointed it to the right side. The mohawk woman. It's a signal for Sara to distract the woman with her sniping skill.
She understood it right away and shoot at the woman while she was distracted. But her Ice Shield is too strong for Sara's bullet to pierce. Still, that's enough to distract the woman.
With this, only the man will pay his attention to me. Though Celestine is helping by keep attacking with her earth magic toward the two.
The enemies don't have time to attack us anymore. That's good.
The man used Fire Wall to stop the werewolves from getting close, but that's also my chance. The Fire Wall will reduce his vision. And he won't be able to sense an attack which is not magic.
And I thrusted Reizpear forward toward the man. This should be good. My attack can pierce the fire, and hit him if it continues. But seems like that's not enough. The mohawk man is too used in a battle. Not just magic battle, but his move to dodge my attack is precise as well.
When my attack hit his Fire Wall, he noticed an attack is coming, so he jumped to dodge it. And he didn't just jump. He also put his hand on the woman's shoulder as a pivot, and also to inform her of an incoming attack. With his grip, he informed the woman to where she needs to move even though he's in the air. And my attack only hit the ground a bit away from them.
"Tsk! They are cooperating too well. This won't be easy."
Good thing Angela has defeated her opponent. She is flying this way and will come soon. I retreated and hide behind a big rock to open a portal to where Kayla and Jewel are. If only Angela can just stay with the two a bit longer, she will be here instantly. She keeps forgetting that I can use portal. But I used it to transport her to this forest from the palace though?
"Kayla, too many injured werewolves. Their regeneration skill is not enough. Go heal them first. Jewel, you don't need to hide your Beastform. Go all out. They are too strong together. If we can just split them up, we can kill them easily," I said.
Or so I thought. What happened next is beyond anyone's imagination.
The mohawk woman, after seeing that my attack can reach the two, she did something. The enemies don't know me since the Fire Wall blocked their vision, but they know that someone from that position attacked them and it almost reached them. And she... summoned her monster.
"Shit! She's a summoner!? I didn't expect that at all!"
A summoner, in the cult that tries to go to the moon, where summoned monsters came from. I thought if there are any summoners in the cult, their leader would get them to open a portal to the Monsters World.
This prove one thing. They really don't know that summoner can open a portal to Monsters World. Which is good. As long as we destroyed their research on space travel, it's impossible for them to go to Monsters World.

The monster that the mohawk woman summoned is not an ordinary monster. It's a Giant! A gigantic humanoid monster!
The height of the monster is about ten meters. It has the strength to eliminate all of us with one sweep. Dangerous.
"A giant? First time I see a giant this small," Jack said as he has been healed by Kayla.
This is still small? Well, I guess Andro's size is many times bigger compared to this little giant.
"Tell me more about giant," I said.
"They are huge and strong. Usually, they are much bigger than this. Maybe this one hasn't reached adulthood yet. I heard about them from Grandpa. He said that even a young giant has enough strength to destroy an entire settlement. Grandpa said that he witnessed the extinction of a species by the giants," Jack said.
"How can we defeat it?" Candy asked.
By overpowering the monster?
Now, what's the plan? At least it's just ten meters. The height of the trees in the forest is about 15 meters. Which means, the guards in the capital won't notice about the monster yet. If they noticed, there will be chaos in the capital. And it will be difficult to continue our mission there.
I guess it's time to test her leadership.
"Kayla! Plan!"
"Me?" Kayla asked.
"You're better than me at this. What to do?" I asked.
"...target the giant's legs. Make it falls, and then use magic to kill it. Get the werewolves to aim for the legs. Not all of them. Some will need to distract the giant and the two mages. Celestine and I will also use our magic to target its legs. Roy and Sara will snipe the mages. Angela who will come soon will be the finisher with her powerful magic. The others will do as they see fit," Kayla said.
"Got it. I'll get Sonia to relay the plan to the others," I said as I run to where Sara is.
I called Sonia, and had her inform the others here about the plan. And I arrived at where Sara is to tell her personally about the plan.
"Understand? Keep moving while targeting the enemies. The giant is putting the two mages on its shoulders. Left one is the woman, right one is the man," I said to Sara.
"I can see them. But do I need keep moving?" Sara asked.
"Yes. A sniper whose position has been known is useless. Or at least that's what Victoria said. Please make me a lot of bullets before you go," I said.
With this, I don't have to waste Blobbies to shoot. Now, let's fight the giant.
Chapter 502: Fighting the Giant and Two Mohawks
Sara made me a lot of bullets made of rocks. They are all sharp bullets. Once the bullet hit someone, it will pierce through them.
Maybe from now on, I need to keep a lot of bullets somewhere where I marked with Blobby so I can grab them when needed. This way, even if Victoria is not with me, I can still use a gun. I'll ask Sara or the others later. Just the earth mages. If it's made of ice, they will melt before I could use them.
After Sara gave me the bullets, we split up. Sara is not as fast as me, so she only moved a bit distance from where she was, and prepare to snipe the mages on the giant's shoulder.
As for me, I still run. I run all the way to the opposite of where Sara is.
Now, my target. Who will be the first one to die? The mohawk man, or the mohawk woman?
If the summoner, the mohawk woman dies first, the giant won't have anyone ordering it. That could be good, but it's also dangerous at the same time. Well, I'll just snipe anyone I can. Maybe even the giant's eyes.
The bullets I have are sharp, but I don't know if the power of my bullet is enough to pierce through the giant's thick muscles and bones. But I will try. If I can't hit the mages.
.....
The two mages seem to be used to standing on the giant's shoulder. They can balance themselves there even when the giant is swinging its fist around trying to hit the nearby werewolves.
If Kayla told me that I'm the main attacker in close combat, I would have tried to talk with the giant. But since I'm responsible for sniping, I won't have the chance to talk.
I found a good spot on top of a tree, and aimed my Blobbyrifle toward the mages. With this distance, I don't think the mages' attack will be effective.
When I aimed at the mohawk man, he noticed that I'm aiming at him. But I don't care even if he knows. I will only distract him so the others can take him down.
I shot once at the mohawk man, but I missed. Not because he dodged. But it's because the giant is moving.
The bullet hits the giant's shoulder, right below where the mohawk man is standing. It only pierced through the giant's skin, and it doesn't go any deeper. Blood coming out from where the bullet hits, but it's not fatal. It's impossible to defeat the giant with it. Unless I can hit him a thousand times.

The mohawk man creates an Ice Spear, and he's trying to hit me from afar. That's impossible unless he has great magic control, which I doubt he has.
I'm still staying on top of the tree without a care, and continue aiming at the mohawk man. Shirley noticed that the mohawk man is aiming at me, so she attacked the mohawk man at the same time the mohawk man is attacking me.
His Fire Spear missed far from me. Meanwhile, Shirley's Wind Slash was blocked by the giant's hand. Seems like the mohawk woman ordered the giant to protect the mohawk man after sensing that he's attacking me.
But that gives a chance for Sara to aim for her. Sara used her sniper rifle, which is created by Marie. It has high durability, so Sara can compress the air inside the rifle as much as she can, without having to worry that the rifle will break. On top of her rifle, there's a scope as well so she can see better. I don't need one because of Divine Vision.
The bullet was shot powerfully from the rifle, and it's flying toward the mohawk woman. It hits her on her left arm. But because of her enhanced physical strength, the bullet didn't pierce through her arm. Instead, the bullet is stuck inside. If the bullet is coated with poison, she would have been poisoned. But that's dangerous for the shooter as well, so I'll pass on that.
After Sara hits the woman, Sara quickly move to another place and hide. This is how we fight.
Sara and I are in safe place while keep moving. Meanwhile the werewolves are attacking the giant's legs.
Seems like some of them can't follow orders well. They attacked the giant's head instead. But they can be a distraction, so it's fine. Though they are blocking my line of sights.
As for our mages, since Angela arrives, we are on the offense. The giant can't do anything to the mages as they are too far from it. It can only target the werewolves who come close. But even the werewolves can attack from distance.
Seems like the giant has good magic resistance. But that doesn't mean our attack doesn't hurt it.
From time to time, our mages and the werewolves would target the two mages on the giant's shoulder. But the mohawk woman created Ice Shield to protect herself and the man.
With this many people on our side, including monsters, just defeating two mages and a monster takes a lot of time. The battle against the cult will be much more difficult.
Now that I think about it, it seems like in my past life, during the war, I only get picked to fight in the easiest battlefield. Or the cult was underestimating us.
But now, we have done many things. The cult won't be stupid to underestimate us anymore. Which means, the battle ahead will be much more dangerous than in my past life.
Finally, the giant's right leg got damaged too much and the giant can no longer balance itself. The giant fell, along with the two mages on its shoulder. It's time to kill them all.
While the mohawk man falling, I aimed my rifle toward him, and shot a powerful bullet at him. The bullet hits him in the stomach, and got stuck in his liver. He's not dead yet, so I shot another bullet to kill him.
As for the mohawk woman, Sara killed her with a headshot. As expected, she's a better marksman than me.
The giant fell on the ground, shaking the ground. All the werewolves attacked the giant's head, while the mages attacked its chest from above. Wendy and Veronica grabbed Jewel and Candy so they can attack from the sky. As for Shirley and Angela, they can attack the giant themselves. They have other elements that have reached expert level other than wind element.
Celestine and Kayla attacked from below. They pierced the giant's limbs with Ground Spike so the giant won't be able to move. And after a barrage of attack, it was finished with Angela's powerful magic.
Angela created a ball on her hands made of magic from four elements, and throw it toward the giant. Creating a huge hole on its chest. The giant is finally dead.
It took so long just to fight three enemies. We must consider that the enemies will have other powerful mages or monsters. Maybe even a fully grown giant. Which should be much bigger than this one.
If I went with the werewolves, I might be able to quickly hurt the giant and make it fall. But since there are too many werewolves attacking one target, I might end up getting hit from the werewolves, or hitting the werewolves. That must be why Kayla told me to snipe from distance.
After killing the giant, we gathered around the giant to see the corpse. And I will use a huge portal to move its corpse somewhere else.
The werewolves also gathered the dead bodies. And I opened a huge portal to drop the dead bodies to the sea.
"This battle was so loud. Even if the guards couldn't see the giant, the noise we made should reach there," Kayla said.
"I guess it's time to rest. I'll bring everyone back, while I'll be the only one staying here," I said as I opened two portals after moving the giant and the mohawks' corpses.
The werewolves entered the portal to Monsters World, while the others returned to the inn instead. Except for Kayla and Celestine.
"You two, where would you like to go?" I asked her.
"We'll go to the Imperial Palace. I'll report to Lynn and Claudia of what happened," Kayla said.
"Do you think they're still awake at this time?" I asked.
"Anyone would be awake if they heard a loud noise. If you're staying behind, be careful of not just the cult members who will come, but also the guard who will scout the area," Kayla said.
I opened a portal to Lynn's location, and see that she's awake as expected. Her face tells me that she wants to know of what's going on.
"I'll tell Sonia as well to inform Albert and the others. You can just stay on guard here," Kayla said before entering the portal with Celestine.
Hmm... It's obvious that once someone came here, they will know something big happened from seeing the aftermath of the fight. Well, I don't care about that. I just need to move when I see someone approaching.
This time, I won't know if the one coming is from the cult or not. I guess tonight's mission is over.
Chapter 503: There's Nothing Important I Found Today
I stayed behind in the forest, while the others have returned. I'm not planning on sleeping tonight.
Since I can't have Victoria with me, let's get someone else. A ghost. At least until someone needs her.
I called Sonia and asked her about the situation in Lento.
"Sonia, how's Harold and the others in Lento doing?" I asked.
"There were some expert level mages, but there's no artificial master level mage at all. Carmen, Fabio, and Kron are enough to handle everything there. And now, they are marching toward Arturo after returning back to Bernard's home with Spot," Sonia said.
"What about the capital of Arturo? Have you asked Toni if there are any artificial master level mage there? Any mohawks?"
"When I told him that the cult has strong mages with mohawk hairstyle, he said that he has seen them. But after the fake king leaves the capital, there are no more mohawks in the capital. It was way before we got the report of Lenko city's fall," Sonia said.
.....
I guess that's to be expected. They are from Arturo in the east. If they go directly to the west, Consenza, they will need to go through Lenko in the center. When they passing through, they make the city into their base before continuing their journey.
I guess they would arrive soon. Probably soon after the fake king arrives here.
"Is there anyone in Lenko?" I asked Sonia.
"Harold left his daughter, Jill, to take care of the city while Harold and the others march toward the capital. Before you ask, she's doing well now and Harold believes that she won't betray her family as she's not influenced by the cult," Sonia said.
I guess that takes care of the city in the center of this continent.
"What about Albert and the others? When will they send their soldiers to stop the cult?" I asked.
"All of them have been waiting in a city near the Imperial Capital. Once someone reported that the fake king will arrive soon, they will be informed and move to stop the rest of the cult members who are approaching the capital. I will inform you when that will happen," Sonia said.

There will be too many expert level mages, or artificial master level mages that we will fight. I don't think just the soldiers alone is enough to handle everything. And there's also the tournament as well. Angela and the others will be busy.
I guess assassinating the enemies one by one is the right answer. Killing the enemies one by one, and when someone noticed something is odd, or any artificial master level mage noticed me looking at them, I will escape using portal. After all, if I run, I won't be able to escape any wind mohawk. I mean mohawks with wind element magic. I would have died before I could escape.
But that will be difficult. This will be a war. Everyone will be fighting, and I will not have the leeway to sneak into their strongest mages.
Once the morning comes, I will return back to the capital to check if there's any cult members left in the capital. I think we have killed a lot of them tonight.
I chatted with Sonia about the current situation more, and we stopped when Sonia is called and had to go.
"Someone contacting me. I'll see you later," Sonia said as she disappears.
I guess I'll be alone from now on. At least I have spent a while chatting with her. Let's patrol the forest seriously now.
There's no one else coming to where we fought the giant is other than some people with similar yellow robes. That's the uniform of the guards of Consenza. They will report to Lynn, but Kayla has told her everything in full detail herself.
I also looked at them to see if they have explosive devices in their mouth or not. And it's good that none of them have it.
I heard from Claudia that there were no reports of anyone reaching expert level other than some mages that Celestine personally trained. So, if any of the soldier noticed my location from far, that means they are expert level mages.
I didn't hide my presence, but none of them noticed me. I guess none of them are hiding their level.
I heard that in Varadis, Julia also trained some of the mages to reach expert level. Which mean the tournament will be more spectacular than I would expect. Still, I don't think anyone would be able to defeat Angela. Unless the participants from Arturo are artificial master level mages.
But they won't be any problem. The problem is those who are hiding. Maybe the fake king will be guarded by artificial master level mages instead. The kings and their bodyguard will be seated in a VIP room where they can watch the match in the best position. Which means Albert, Lynn, and old man Henry will be in a room with potentially artificial master level mages.
But with Mustache who has reached expert level guarding Albert, it should be fine. Veronica will also be a guard for Lynn. That's what I heard from her as she doesn't want to participate in the tournament. But isn't this position much more dangerous?
But it's good as well since she was a former member of the cult. If there's anyone she recognizes from the fake king's guard, she will inform Lynn.
The guards from the capital noticed the remains of our battle against the giant, but there's no corpses there. They were suspicious that someone is hiding there. If they are someone I know, I would have talked to them telling them everything is fine. I'll just leave them to Lynn and Claudia to take care later.
When the guards are checking near the location I'm hiding, I moved so I won't be seen. It was easy to avoid them.
I keep doing so until morning when the gate is open. Though I didn't walk through the door. I just use portal back to Lynn's palace.

Seems like she's already awake. And Kayla, Celestine, and Claudia are all here. Are they having a sleepover party?
"Hey, there are guards checking on the forest where we fought the giant. I think you need to tell them something," I said to Lynn.
"...Don't call me "Hey". I am the empress, you know?" Lynn protested.
"We'll tell the guards that we sent someone to take care of a dangerous monster in the forest. Since the kings from other countries will visit us, it's normal to get dangerous monsters subjugated," Claudia said, ignoring Lynn's protest.
"Okay. That's good. I'll be taking a nap for now and patrol the capital," I said as sat on the bed of the empress and then lie on it.
"Hey! Who told you that you can sleep here!?" Lynn complained.
"Since Victoria is not with me, I can't have quality sleep on Blobbybed. I don't have enough Blobbies to spare. And since you're the empress, the quality of your bed should be good. At least it's half as good as Blobbybed," I said.
"Damn! I'm jealous of how good that bed sounds, but also angry at how a commoner like you can be so casual to me!" Lynn said angrily.
"Roy. I think you should just go. Albert's substitute has been staying in the capital for a while. You can just sleep on his bed there," Kayla said.
Oh, seems like Albert's substitute is already here. I don't know when he arrives. Maybe I swept a glance at him before, but since he's not suspicious, I let him be.
How come someone who is impersonating a king not suspicious? I guess I just don't think that he's really a king since I can see through his disguise. But since he's Albert's subordinate, he should know me.
I'll do as Kayla said and go to where Albert will stay once he arrives. He knows about me as expected. In fact, he was one of the agents who went for the training camp. I have forgotten all about it.
He told me that I shouldn't sleep on the bed that will be used by the king, but I replied with the fact that I'm Albert's best friend. There's nothing he can do about it.
Until I need to transport Albert here, I will sleep here. That's what I decided. The bed is much better than the one at the inn.
After I wake up, I start looking around the capital again. The good thing is that Sophie won't be taking care of the children, as Jewel and Kayla took a break from taking request from the guild. So, I spent the day looking for any cult members while having a date with Sophie. Only until after lunch.
After that, I had a date with Kayla. She seems to be the one working the hardest. And I need to get her relaxed.
I bet she doesn't only think about the tournament. She's also thinking of the incoming cult members that I have to fight, while she's in the tournament.
I can't say to her to just leave everything to me. She will still continue thinking about it after all. So, at least I want her to be relaxed before the tournament.
Today, there's no suspicious people I see. And I feel more relaxed than before after relaxing with Sophie, and Kayla after that. This might be the last day I can take it easy before the battle.
Chapter 504: It's Time to Move
Finally, it's the day for me to leave. Today is not the day of the opening ceremony for the tournament. But today, Albert and old man Henry are already here with Lynn. I have brought them from their home country, and they have replaced their substitute that were sent here.
"I have asked many things to the Professor, and some of the cult members that you caught. The plan won't change. I have told my army who are hiding near or in the capital to leave and stop the cult members approaching in discreet. Roy, are you sure the fake king of Arturo is here?" Albert asked me.
"Yeah. They should be at the gate by now," I said.
Before I transport Albert and old man Henry here, I was outside the capital. Looking for the carriage from Arturo. And it's finally here. The fake king has arrived. Accompanied only by expert level mages. Everyone other than the fake king should be expert level mages.
I know it because there are no one inside the carriage that can tell I'm looking at them. So, I pretend to be a hunter and walked within the range of their detection skill. All of them, except for the fake king, are expert level mages.
Which mean, just Veronica and Mustache should be enough to fight them in case Albert, Lynn, or old man Henry are attacked during the tournament since they will be seated in the same room. Candy and Wendy won't participate as they will check the audience if any of them is suspicious.
And for the participant from Tatrama, other than my friends, Albert sent some other agents that the others know to fill the number. Good luck to them all.
.....
"Old man, how about you? Do Marie and Victoria invented something new?" I asked old man Henry.
"That seems to be the case. But the experiment is still going on. They said that if you find any kids in the cult, you should open a small portal to Victoria. If you don't see any kids, you don't need to call her," old man Henry said.
"Understood. Where should I go now, Albert?" I asked Albert.
"Old man has sent his army to where the cult is supposed to be camping. Somewhere between here and Lenko. As for you, you will go to where my army is, and transport them all to Lenko city. I have asked Spot to be our ride. With his full size, he should be able to bring the whole army on his back," Albert said.
So, Spot is waiting in Lenko? It has been a while since I last saw him. I heard that he's doing well helping Harold and the others.
"Oh, right. What about Harold and the others?"
I'm curious about the state of Arturo. Harold should be attacking the capital right around this time.
But the kingdom is not just the capital. There should be other cities in Arturo that have been infested by the cult members. Even if Harold managed to retrieve the capital back and return to the throne, his battle won't be over yet.
"Thanks to Toni's help, the capital of Arturo is already under his control. We made sure to get him as many supports as we can afford, so they will stop any news about it to leave during the tournament, or the battle you will be facing. It's to make sure that Harold will have enough power to stop more invasion from other cities that have been conquered by the cult," Albert explained.
Seems like I underestimated Harold and the kings. Just because I'm from the future where they lost, that doesn't mean they will lose this time. They are all exceptional kings. Though I don't know about Lynn. But at least she has a capable subordinate that we can trust.
"That mean I have to finish the battle as soon as possible, right? That might be difficult depending on how many mohawks they are sending," I said.
"Yes. But you can get the werewolves, angels, and vampires to help you. It should be fine," old man Henry said.
"If the enemy has a summoner with strong summoned monster, we might get a lot of casualties. Even a few nights ago, we lost few werewolves against two mohawks and a giant," I said.
"...Casualties are something unavoidable during war. The result is what matters. Everyone who will join the battle know that. They are willingly risking their lives for their country or their loved ones. This is a battle that we can't lose no matter what," Albert said.
I know. Well, let's not care about other people. Just kill the cult members.
I put on Blobbyarmor. I received more clones of Victoria, and have the leeway to create something like this. Old man Henry delivered it to me after I transported him here.
How dare a slime get a king to be a courier! That's very Victoria. And me.
About the plan, it will be a pincer attack. Old man Henry's army will stop the cult approaching from the front, while I and Albert's army will attack from Lenko's direction.
Once we see the enemies, I will open portals to call the angels, werewolves, and vampires. I hope we have enough people.
From the information Albert has gathered from the Professor, the cult members are gathering in a camp, away from the capital. And in during the final match of the tournament, they will march toward the capital.
Which mean, they are still waiting for everyone to arrive.
The plan is to defeat everyone right away, and wait for the rest of the enemies to come. This way, we might also find where their headquarter really is.
By defeating the enemies in the camp, the next one to appear should be coming from where the headquarter is. We will get Elsie to watch where they came from, and have someone followed the trail. I hope we can find where they are hiding.
Stopping the cult's plan to kill all the kings at once in Consenza. Defeating the remains of the cult in Arturo. Cities by cities. And finally, attacking the headquarter of the cult.
That will be our plan. Each time new enemies come from the same location toward the camp we will be attacking, the more likely that the location of their headquarter can be traced.
After taking care of everything else, we will surround their headquarter to not let them have a chance of moving to another location. It's difficult to trace them because they keep moving. But I hope that this will be the end.
Finally, we are getting closer to destroying the cult. For me, it has been so long including the fight against the cult in my past life. And I never thought we would be able to reach this far in a few years when we couldn't do anything for decades.
But will it be that easy? I don't know. After all, who knows how many master level mages they have? Not the artificially made one. But real one. Mages who reached master level through effort.
What if there's another level beyond master level? What if the cult has someone like that?
No, I can't start being negative when the battle is right in front of me. What I can do is to fight. Swinging and thrusting Reizpear, using transforming weapon, shooting from afar, and moving with portals. Those are things that I can do.
Well, maybe my air element will be useful. Though I doubt it's useful against expert level mages or air mages. But doing what I can do is the key to victory.
There won't be any expert level mages coming with us. The strongest mages are only at advanced level mages. But it should be okay against the enemies' expert level mages.
We have armies from Consenza, Tatrama, and Varadis. And while we are hunting down the cult, they are practicing their teamwork. It should be okay. We can do this.
And so, I left Consenza to Lenko city. I said to Albert that I will open a portal when we're close to the enemy camp instead of having Spot carry them all from Lenko.
"Hey, Spot. Are you ready for a big fight?" I greeted the serpent floating in the sky in camouflage.
"I am. Let's go right away!" Spot said.
Before I jumped on top of Spot's head, I look around the city I've never been to. Lenko city.
It's just like any other city. But something must have changed after the cult took over this place. And it changes again after Harold taken over this place.
"Not a bad city. The view is great as well. Next time I visit this place, it won't be for battle."
I jumped on top of Spot's head, and we fly through the sky toward the enemy. Soon, the battle will start. Lives will be lost, but such is war.
But the only thing I need to think is to destroy the cult. I must not think of dying. Or letting my friends die.
That's why I decided to bait the cult with the tournament. It's to let my friends stay in safer place, not at the battlefield. Though once their match is over, they must be thinking of joining me. That's why I need to get rid of the enemies fast.
"Spot! Full speed!"
Chapter 505: Searching the Enemy
"Roy, have you seen the enemy camp?"
As we fly in the sky, Spot asked me if I have seen the camp where the cult will gather. But so far, we haven't found it yet.
"Not yet. You're using your camouflage, right? We can fly a little lower. Maybe they decided to camp underground," I said.
"Are you sure about that?" Spot asked.
"I don't know. But from what I have seen of so far, the cult has the tendency to stay underground," I said.
That's right. From the raid to the Professor's location, they made a five-floor basement under the ground that goes to a dungeon we needed to pass. Also, here, they had a meeting room under the ground. The sewer. Ignoring the bad smell of the sewer. Or maybe the smell never reached their hiding spot there. I don't know since I always protect myself with Air Barrier back then.
If the enemy is hiding underground, it will be difficult to fight them unless we have expert level earth mages. But our expert level mages are all busy with the tournament. Trying to bait the fake king, and some other hiding enemies, telling them that the kings are gathered in one place. Angela and the others will be important for the protection of the royalties.
.....
I heard from the girls that some of them will not go all out and pretend to be weak so they can lose as soon as possible. But for Angela and some others, they really want to test their ability on each other. I hope they won't get hurt too much.
They will stay in Consenza. That's why Albert and old man Henry can send their armies to help me while leaving only the minimum number of guards to protect their countries. Though for Lynn, if she sent out her army, the cult will be suspicious. That's why they will be staying behind to protect the empire.
We have been flying in the sky for a while, but there's no sign of the enemy at all. Maybe they are hiding deeper underground. That will be dangerous, so I hope that's not the case. I guess I'll call for help for now.
"Spot, I will open a portal and get Elsie to come here," I said to Spot, in which he stopped and stays stationary in the sky to make it easier for Elsie to enter the portal.
I opened a portal to where Lina is and asked her if I can borrow Elsie earlier than expected.
"You want to borrow Elsie? Sure. But take Sunny with you as well. They are already a pair that can't be separated when there's a fight," Lina said.
"Sure. Elsie, Sunny, let's go!"
It's always a weird scene no matter how many times I have seen it. An eyeball with tentacles is walking. And one of the tentacles is holding a potted plant. A sunflower, with tentacles. There's a lot of tentacles here.
Adding to the fact that one of the eyeball's tentacles is wrapping around the tail of a giant flying serpent as it's looking at the surrounding. What a sight.
"...I just can't get used to the sight of different type of tentacles are wrapping around each other like best friend," I said to myself.
This game will keep you awake all night long.Panzer.Quest strategy game
"Why don't you add more? You can have your Black Slime to grow tentacles, right?" Spot added after hearing what I said.
"Too many tentacles give me the creep. I'll pass on that," I said.
And now, we continue looking for the enemy camp. We only fly just a little higher than the trees in case they are hiding deep underground.
If they do hide underground, there really is not much that I can do. Since that mean they obviously have air mages to help them with breathing, I can't use my gases as freely as usual.
Although the enemy is still waiting for more people to come, the first one to camp should at least have several strong people in charge. Probably more than one mohawks. And as the strongest within our joined army, I will have to fight them all alone.
Probably not since Spot is here. He should be able to handle one or two mohawks. As long as they don't have good teamwork like the pair from before. But at least even if they have a giant with them now, Spot's breath attack can defeat it instantly.
Even if the giant is a fully-grown one, Spot will be able to defeat it. That's what I believe.
"Elsie! You see anything?" I asked.
Elsie shook her head. I mean eyeball. Whatever it is.
Any closer than this and the imperial guards would have seen them. And it's not under the ground as well. Maybe instead of camping, they took over a village.
I haven't seen any village nearby. There's no village around this part in the map that I am holding right now. It's the Blobbymap made by Blobbies imitating the map that Claudia showed me before.
Unless there's a village recently made that haven't been registered to be part of the empire yet. Then where should I look?
Obviously, somewhere with water source. There's no lake nearby, but there's a river. Let's follow the river and see if we can find them.
"Spot, seems like we're looking in the wrong area. Let's follow the river and see if the enemy is there," I said.
"A river? Which way? If you're pointing your finger above my head again, I'll drop you here," Spot said.
Seems like he's angry that whenever I told him to go somewhere I else, I always pointing my finger to that direction while I'm above his head. Which makes him unable to see where I'm pointing.
This time, I instructed him to the river with words. And we arrive in no time thanks to Spot's speed.
Now, where should we go? Upstream or downstream?
Upstream, we will be further from the capital. And there's a village a bit far from here that exist in the map. But it shouldn't be where the cult is hiding. Well, we won't know until we see it for ourselves.
"Spot, there's a village upstream. Let's check it first. If that village hasn't been taken over by the cult, it means they are downstream," I said.
"Understood."

The village we arrive in is quite peaceful. There are children playing as well, and there are farms that have been well-maintained. Which mean it's impossible for them to be members of the cult. Unless they have been members since a long time ago. But I don't think the cult will attack from here.
"Negative, huh? Let's go downstream. Be careful since if the enemy is a mohawk, they would notice us," I said.
"Okay. If that's the case, once the enemy noticed us, you will drop here while I will bait them away from there to reduce the enemy's strength. The one who noticed you should be strong, right?" Spot said.
"That's a good plan. Let's go!"
Once I jumped off of Spot's back and landed on the ground, I will open a portal to get the army here.
But since it's not in the area between Lenko and the imperial capital, I need to inform the other army marching from the capital. Seems like our pincer attack won't be of use here.
"Sonia, the enemy is not between Lenko and the capital. The pincer attack won't work. Tell them that I will open a portal to the rest of the army to come here," I said after calling Sonia.
"There's no pincer attack? Seems like the battle will be much harder than expected. I'll tell Albert and the others," Sonia said before leaving.
We continue flying downstream, and I finally see a village that is not exist in the map.
It may look like a village with the houses made of logs. But that's a fake. The houses are built with earth magic to shape into a house, and they used logs only to cover the earth. This is it. This is where the enemy is.
"Spot, we found it. But I haven't seen any strong enemies," I said.
"How many of them are there?" Spot asked.
"A lot. But we have more people with us. Still, they don't have all of them gathered over there yet," I said.
"Okay. I will prepare my breath attack here. You keep looking for the strong enemies. If someone detected you, tell me where to aim and that's where I will attack," Spot said.
"Is it okay if I pointed with my finger?" I asked.
"As long as you are within my sight."
I looked toward the fake village and finally, I see three people with mohawks. And the two of them noticed me quick.
"They noticed me. Attack that place!"
Instead of aiming to where the mohawks are, I aimed to where there are many enemies. This way, I hope a lot of expert level mages will be lost.
After saying that to Spot, I run to Spot's tail to grab the two tentacle monsters, and jumped down. That's right when Spot let out his breath attack.
His attack hit the fake village and destroyed it. Many people died, but some managed to escape. And I no longer look at them since the mohawks will know about me.
After attacking the fake village, Spot turned tail and fly as far away as possible. I see someone fly extremely fast to where Spot is without using Divine Vision to not alert the mohawk. At least none of the mohawk are children.
Now, it's time to get everyone here.
Chapter 506: The War Started
Once I landed with Elsie and Sunny wrapped around my arm with their tentacles, I instantly opened a portal to get the army here. It's the army that was supposed to attack the enemy from behind. Though since the pincer attack strategy won't work because they are not where we expected them to be. These guys will be the one attacking from the front. And I still think it's still possible to do pincer attack with me here.
"Just charge ahead and you will find the village where they are staying! Kill them all! I will go around behind the enemy to transport the other army! Prepare your armbands!"
I shouted the instruction to the army. The armbands I said is to make sure none of us will fight each other.
There will be two armies fighting the cult here. One is Albert's army, and the other is old man Henry's army. To make sure that they won't end up fighting each other, every single one of them are wearing purple armbands either in their left or right upper arm.
Why purple? Because it's hard to create the color purple. The ingredient for it is a certain type of flower that only grows in Tatrama. This way, the enemy will not be able to pretend to be our allies by wrapping armbands of other color in their upper arms.
By the way, I'm also wearing one as well. I wore it on my left upper arm over my Blobbyarmor. Thanks to old man Henry bringing more Blobbies to me, I don't need to worry about the quantity of Blobbies I have at the moment. Though I will still only use Blobbygun with rock bullets that Sara created for me.
After I move to the other side of the battlefield, I opened a portal to where the other army is waiting and gave them the same instruction. Now the armies from Varadis and Tatrama are all here. It's impossible for us to get ally from Arturo when the kingdom is still in trouble, and from Consenza, they need to protect the capital and won't participate. At least until the tournament is over and the capital is safe. I hope that will be the case.
.....
Now that the human army has all arrive. It's time for the monster army.
I move again toward another location with Sunny and Elsie, and opened two portals. But this time, we are closer to where the enemy is. And one of the mohawks left behind noticed me using magic he didn't recognize. He hurriedly running to this location instead.
Meanwhile, the last mohawk left behind doesn't even notice me even though he's closer to me. Don't tell me that he's just a normal mohawk and not a result of experiment. I still wonder why someone chooses that kind of hairstyle willingly. Though this guy is wearing black leather jacket and pants. At least it fits him.

Anyway, I opened two portals. One is to where the vampires are waiting, Cassau. And the other is to Monsters Village.
Only vampires enter through one of the portals. As for the other portal, I need to wait patiently until all the angels and werewolves who are going to participate to pass the portal. And the mohawk is getting closer to us.
"Even if you don't want to, you need to wear the armbands. But well, since the werewolves can transform and your arms will be bigger, it's fine to wear it on your forehead as a headband. Make sure that our own allies won't attack you. They have been informed of you, the allied monsters, will help fighting the cult. But that doesn't mean they won't attack you out of fear. Make sure the cloth is visible. Now, you can fight however you want. Good luck, everyone!"
After saying that, everyone dispersed. Like how we talked before I transported them here, the vampires and the werewolves will go all out right away. As for the angels, like usual, they will focus more on healing our allies.
This is why both Albert's and old man Henry's army didn't have any healer among them. Other than those who can fight and heal at the same time, most of the healing came from the angels. Not only they can heal, they can also do it from the sky.
Let's see how the cult members will react. They are those who believe in what they call True God even though we call him Evil God. How will they react when they see angels are helping us? I hope most of them will feel conflicted because they thought that since they are serving a god, there's no way angels would go against them.
Though angels are just monsters. They don't belong to any gods. They are free monsters that do whatever they like. Though most people don't know about it.
Now, I will face the mohawk coming this way. Though it seems that Shelia and Graham noticed what I'm planning.
I run past the running and flying werewolves, vampires, and angels, to face the incoming mohawk. With the strongest werewolf and the leader of the angels behind me.
I run with my full speed and charged at the mohawk directly. The enemy noticed that I'm coming with full speed and stopped to defend from my attack.
Like usual. Their weakness is obvious. They think that they are fighting mages because the one coming at them is a human.
Although there are a werewolf and an archangel behind me, I ordered them to go help the others and leave this one to me. Now, I'm facing the mohawk one on one.
The mohawk didn't expect that I won't stop and maybe he's thinking that I'm just passing by. It's because I'm holding back my killing intent as much as possible.
But when I get him within my range, once I see he reacted to something, I thrusted Reizpear at his heart. Killing him instantly.

The artificial master level mages can tell that even though I'm pretending to be a living armor, I'm inside it. As for expert level mages and lower, they will only think that I'm a living armor. I don't know about our allies, but as long as they don't think of me as hostile, I don't care what they think of me. Though some of the mages from Albert's army should have known since they were in the training camp. Or at least that's what Albert told me. I don't remember anyone from there except for Sara. Not even the summoner I taught.
That was easy. But I won't let down my guard.
For now, I can leave the rest of the enemy to the others. I will keep watch of the surrounding area with Elsie who is still attached to my arm with Sunny.
"Elsie, we'll be watching the surrounding for the incoming enemies in turns. You and Sunny will take the first turn, and I will do the next after resting for a while. Inform me if you see any new enemies who are stronger than the werewolves or the vampires. Anyone that notices you are looking at them," I gave an instruction to Elsie.
Even though she's not my contracted monster, she will still obey me because I'm her master's master. Lina is my loyal maid after all. She ordered her monsters to obey me. Though for her newest contracted monster, the Elf Queen, she didn't even participate in the battle. She's non-combatant along with the entire elf race in the village.
But we're fighting in the forest though. They should be able to use their plant magic to help. But I guess it's better if those without any motivation to not participate at all or they will just be a burden.
But the archangel is here because he was forced to. He's my contracted monster after all, so he won't disobey me. And the chance of him being a burden is low. Especially if I just asked the angels to heal and not to fight.
...I just hope they won't stupidly heal the enemies.
For now, I need to take a rest even though I'm not tired. I drunk a bottle of mana potion to recover my lost mana after using portals. It might not be needed right away, but it's best to be prepared.
We don't know how long we will stay here. One day? Two days? Until the tournament is over? A week? A month? I don't know.
I can only prepare myself for what's to come. I have a lot of mana potions after all. Thanks to the elves, the mana potions I have are much more effective than normal ones. The ingredients are the same, but the one grown by the elves are of much better qualities.
They are growing fruits and vegetables. That's how they fight. By farming.
Once our rations run out, I will open a portal to grab whatever they have harvested. I have asked Lina to tell the elves to do that.
While the enemies need their supplies to be delivered, our side just need me to open a portal. Though once I die, it's obvious that we will lose. Even if I have no plans on dying, the chance is not zero.
Alright. I have rested enough. It's my turn to watch over the surrounding.
Chapter 507: The First Day is Over
Only the enemies bring their expert level mages with them. There are none of them among us. But because we are more prepared, so far, we are doing well. Even when I haven't helped them at all, our armies managed to defeat the cult members.
It was mostly thanks to the werewolves and the vampires though. But if they can't get close, our mages were the one giving the finishing attacks. The werewolves and the vampires helped a lot with distracting the enemies.
As for the angels, they have been healing our side nonstop. But now that Kayla has taught them how to properly control their healing magic, they didn't waste too much mana for small wounds. And they also healed us in turn, so not all of them used healing magic at the same time.
At first, only about thirty percent of the angels here healed us. But after a while, that group fell back and the other thirty percent of the angels stepped forward and continued healing. As for the rest of the angels, they are for emergencies. For a more serious injuries, or if there are some other things they can do.
Even if their leader, the archangel Graham, doesn't have much motivation to fight, the rest of the angels are willing to fight. I guess it's just him who is the bad influence among the angels. If only another angel is their leader, I would never think of them as a stupid species of monster anymore.
That's how the battle has been going on so far. But now, the enemy started to realize that we are stronger than expected and much more resilient. Just like the cult, the army we brought with us are also those who are prepared to die. But the hatred we have toward the cult is much bigger.
Albert, old man Henry, and Lynn are... well, probably it's Claudia and not Lynn. They picked the army that will fight from those who have been affected by the cult. One way or another, they have a huge hatred toward the cult. That's why they are prepared to die in this fight.
.....
For Tatrama's army, well, there have been several stampedes that were organized by the cult. Some of the casualties might have come from the friends or families of the soldier. The same could be said with Varadis' army.
Not just anyone, but the crown prince, old man Henry's own son, was teaming up with the cult. Other than him, there were many other people as well. Though I and Spot had killed a lot of them back when we first arrive at Varadis.
As for Consenza... I know nothing. But since Claudia said that it's fine, I can just believe her. Though they are staying in the capital of Consenza to protect their empress.
That's why we have higher morale than the enemy. Is what I thought.
If you own a mouse, you have to play this game. No Install. Play for free.Panzer.Quest strategy game
But it will be difficult if they started to call monsters to help them. I don't know if they have more summoners with powerful monsters, or tamers, or they would use the same method they used during the stampede in Cassau or other cities in Tatrama before.
That is why I will try to not participate in the battle as much as possible. It's to reserve my strength against the possibility of monster attack, or any powerful mohawks.
The worst part is that there will be children with mohawk coming. And I must not try to kill them.
Since they haven't arrived yet, I can rest easy and take turns with Elsie to watch the surrounding. Though she has longer turn than me.
But now, it's about time. I won't be able to keep watch for a while since the battle has been going on for a while. It should be time that the cult noticed that they won't be able to do much, and they will try to escape. But we won't allow it.
The vampires, werewolves, and I, will hunt all the cult to the very last. No one is allowed to escape.
"Elsie, stay here and keep watch of incoming enemies. I'll be looking for those who are trying to escape," I said to the eyeball monster.
After giving instruction to her, I run in the sky to chase after the escaping enemies. And when I chased after one, a werewolf saw me and chooses to stop chasing after the guy I'm chasing and went elsewhere.
I'm chasing after a wind mage who is flying in low altitude. For those flying higher, Spot will defeat them. He will eat them whole.
Spot who was baiting for the other artificial master level mage, has finally defeated him. Some parts of his scales have scratches, but he's fine. The angels can heal him later since he's still able to endure it. Though I don't know if he needs one or not.
I chased after the flying guy, and passed him easily. It's either because my speed has increased, or his speed has reduced due to the long fight with the others. Or maybe both.
And as soon as I got close to him, I thrusted Reizpear forward to stab him from behind. The blade of the spear comes out from his chest. It pierced through his heart.
I raised the spear with his body still intact, and swing it down to throw the body away. There are still some who tries to escape, but those who can fly has been defeated by Spot.
Now, the harder part. The earth mages trying to escape to underground.
They are quite far, but thanks to the help of our earth mages who noticed the enemies are underground, they can delay the enemies slightly. I can chase after them with a huge drill in my hand.

Oh? We have a summoner with us. That summoner has a giant mole as his summons. How convenient.
The giant mole chases after the earth mage that escapes underground. There's no way they can be faster than a mole that can move well underground.
With its giant claws used for digging, the giant mole ripped the enemies into shreds. What a monster. And probably because we instructed our allies to wear visible purple cloth somewhere on our body, that giant mole has one tied on his head like a ribbon even though it's a male. Is that its master's preference? I think he will get along with Hill.
I also managed to kill one earth mage and another mage following him underground with my drill. It's a powerful drill if the enemy is just an expert level mage. They should be at least at Kayla's level of magic control so they can defend from my drill.
Well, it's impossible to know about magic control in this time. I think there should be a few more years until someone studied it.
Still, if the enemy is too strong, even with weak magic control, we won't be able to defeat them easily.
I come out of the ground and look for more enemies trying to escape. Seems like the enemies this time won't just mindlessly kill themselves. Unless they are caught.
Their goal this time is to report to the other cult members who weren't here yet about our attack. And of course, we won't let them do that.
The werewolves and the vampires managed to stop those who are escaping and kill them. The werewolves enjoyed the fight as it's what they life for. And the vampires enjoyed drinking the blood of expert level mages. The vampires will continue growing stronger in this fight. Even stronger than the werewolves. Maybe some of them will rank up. There will be more Vampire Dukes among them.
As long as the vampires have no intention in turning their fangs into us, it should be fine. They have become dangerous existence ever since they entered our world. We need to bribe them with more beautiful dresses and accessories. Should I go diving again after this?
Though I just need Carmen alone to stop all the vampires. Their weakness is water after all. They can't swim.
Now I have seen it. I have seen where most of the cult members are running. It's toward the north. That might be where their headquarter is.
After defeating all of the enemies in the fake village, I told the werewolves to trail the scent of the enemies and see if they came from the same place. Some of the soldiers from the combined army will come as well to scout. Only those with wind element magic.
"Everyone, good job. Now, let's take a rest for a while until the scout returns. I doubt that's the end of it. If you are injured, ask the angels for healing magic. But if it's just light injuries like scratches, don't bother asking for healing. We also need to save the angels' magic because the enemy's strongest forces haven't arrived yet," I said to everyone.
I asked the vampires to gather all the dead bodies in the fake village. They will be the source for the vampires' strength. That's why I won't dispose of them first.
Just like that, the first day of our fight is over. We camped at the fake village while waiting for the report from the scouts.
