Chapter 727 - 727 Entering the Lawless Country
727 Entering the Lawless Country
We have rested enough. It’s finally time to fight in the Lawless Country.
“Roy, Varadis has started the attack already. The people in the lawless country are occupied by the soldiers of Varadis. They won’t expect that a portal will open somewhere in the middle of the country,” Sonia reported.
The place where the portal will be opened is most likely to somewhere important. A place where the cult members in that place received information from the summoners here.
Unless they keep the reports somewhere. The reports won’t just stay in one place the whole time after all. It should be brought to someone important.
In the two villages, the portal opened inside the church. In some sort of office of someone important.
The same is possible with the lawless country as well. It could be a church, cathedral, or somewhere else. Maybe even in the middle of a farm.
I actually wanted to bring soldiers from other country to help subjugating the lawless country as well. But that mean I have to open up portals several more times.
I have used portal many times already. Even with Mana Potions, it’s best if I could save some Mana instead of using it. That’s why only soldiers from Varadis will help since they already prepared soldiers in the border between Varadis and the lawless country for a long time.
They have been informed that reinforcement will come from the middle of the country. We needed to report them many things since most of them are not mages who have helped us.
.....
So just like back then, we wore purple cloth as a mark to tell them that we’re not enemies.
Even then, maybe those soldiers won’t be enough. So, other than us who will enter from the middle, Varadis is sending more reinforcement. They should arrive during our fight there. It should be soon.
“Jewel, can you protect the portal?” I asked Jewel.
“It won’t be hard. The portal won’t stay open for too long, right?” jewel confidently said.
“Good. Shelia, how’s your injuries?” this time I asked Shelia.
“Don’t you dare leave me out of this battle. I’m perfectly healthy,” she said.
She didn’t participate in the previous two village raids because of injuries. The mage she was fighting before was about as strong as the one who created the hurricane.
And now, in the lawless country, we can assume that there won’t just be powerful master level mages over there. There could be more monsters that could be as strong as those master level mages as well.
I’m glad that Shelia has recovered. It hasn’t been long, and she should be much stronger than before after experiencing difficult battle.
It’s a good idea to let her stay in the Monsters Village to rest and got the angels to heal her.
Though once she’s healed, she ran by herself from the village to the destroyed base of the cult. As soon as she arrives, she complained why I didn’t bring her to the previous raids.
Well, she’s here now. She will be a great help and can help Jewel protect the portal.
“Prepare yourself. I will open the portal in a few seconds,” I said.
I look around and see that everyone is ready. Including Derek.
I thought that he would not participate here. But it seems like he has resolved himself to fight to the end. That’s good.
I’m sitting on Ray’s back with Victoria as my armor. I pocketed Reizpear again after breaking it into pieces. Victoria and my magic or Aura weapons will be more useful than Reizpear here. Though I don’t know if I will ever use those weapons.
I opened the portal and rushed in. I’m bringing Spot and his entire family with me.
As soon as I jumped in, I destroyed the wall in front of us. We’re really inside a building. And I can see the people here are moving somewhere. Probably to the border so they can fight Varadis’ soldiers.
After I entered, Jewel and Shelia entered with Jewel transformed into a triceratops. Maybe I should have given her the fishnet stocking so she won’t be harmed with fire magic. But seeing a dinosaur wearing a fishnet stocking is weird.
I looked toward where the sea is, and threw Spot who have turned quite big enough to lift his children in the sky.
And in the sky, Spot flung his body to throw his children into the sea.
Really? That’s bad parenting over there. Though it seems like his children enjoyed it.
All his children transformed into their original size mid air and dive into the sea. And Spot is flying in the sky before diving into the sea as well.
While the people are in terror seeing giant serpents jumping into the sea, soon after, I can see several huge monsters in the sea fighting against Spot’s children.
I was right. They do have powerful monsters in the sea. And some of them were even bigger than Spot’s real size.
“We’ll rake care of the sea battle! I’ll leave the land and air to you!” Spot said as he joined his children.
There are also powerful monsters on land. They are gathered in one large area. And some of them even have wings and can fly.
Well, they will be our enemies.
I need to focus on something else. Not the monsters, not the master level mages.
But children. Even if they belong to the enemies, none of us dare to fight children. And the children of this country... from what I can see, they are experienced with hardship.
When we caused some noise from the fight, and probably when the soldiers from Varadis attacked this country, the children grabbed anything they can use as weapons. Knives, hammers, axes, anything.
They are ready to fight. And our side are not ready to fight children.
So, it will be my job to make sure that we won’t fight the children, and the children can’t fight us.
“Victoria, we will be known as the biggest child kidnappers in history after this event,” I said to Victoria.
“No. Not me at least. Just you. Let’s do it and save those children.”
This is where I will use my portal most.
When I captured children, I will open a portal to a transfer points in Consenza where Celestine has been waiting so she can receive the children. There, I can leave everything to her and everyone in Consenza.
But seeing this place, it seems like there are more children than I expected. I guess I need to drink more Mana Potions later then.
Ignoring the walls and everything else, I had Ray go to where I see children. They raised their weapons at me, but it won’t work. Even their small knives were not able to pierce through my skin.
I grabbed the children and threw them into the portal where Celestine is. And when I see someone who is no longer young but tried to protect the children, I also grabbed them.
Celestine told me that I shouldn’t just grab the children. I should grab someone who might be their guardian as well so the children won’t be in too much panic since they have someone, an adult probably, whom they can trust.
And this one tried to help the children with just beginner level magic. Seems like not everyone here is truly evil. They only experienced with evil. Not evil themselves.
Living in this place, which even called as lawless country, they need to adapt to the evil of other people so they can survive. That’s why even children took up arms.
But I don’t care. I don’t need to know their stories. I only need to do my job. Grab all the children and their guardians, and bring them to Celestine.
Celestine helped me a few hours ago in the fight in the cathedral. But after that, after interrogating the disfigured woman and learn the existence of this country, Albert informed everyone and Celestine suggested to help the children as much as possible. So we agreed.
Once I saved all the children, we will try to provoke the master level mage to use destructive magic so they will end up helping us in destroying this place.
I can see that some mages and monsters are chasing after me. I can hear from their order that they are either to capture me, stop me, kill me, or kidnap the children and use them as hostages.
For those trying to kill me, unless they are master level mages, they are not worthy to be killed by me. I will let the others to fight them.
But for the master level mages, or those who are trying to grab the children and use them as hostages, I will kill them before they can reach the children.
It might be a small country, but the size is several times bigger than the capital of Tatrama. It took me a while just to locate all the children.
Meanwhile, I can see Spot’s children is fighting against a huge starfish that can jump and fly into the sky. That’s crazy. Though Spot helped his children and the starfish died soon after.
Land, water, and air. There are battles everywhere. But we won’t lose. We will fight on until the cult is destroyed completely.
