"Seems like we have cleared too many monsters nearby before this. That's why only underground monsters and flying monsters appeared just now," Shelia said as she and the werewolves finished defeating the flying monsters.
Probably it's as she says. Because they have been frequently hunting monsters, either for food or for training purpose, there weren't many of them for the first wave. Though after this, I don't think there will be wave after wave. It will be a powerful torrent that never stops until Angela finished her breakthrough instead.
That is why I asked everyone to work in shift. But I guess I am asking too much as many of them don't care about their shift.
At least I hope they know their limit. Once they are tired, they will rest instead of fighting.
"Alright, there won't be anymore shift. Just fight however you want," I said as I flew to a group of Giants coming this way.
I know that the others can defeat them. but it will take some time because these giants are powerful enough to endure many magic attacks. So, while the werewolves haven't noticed them, I alone approached the giants.
They are looking for the source of the magic fluctuation, which is Angela. That's why I have to kill them.
Or maybe, I don't have to kill them. Instead, I will make them kill each other.
I have practiced it on the monkeys, and now I will be targeting bigger targets.
Now that I'm advanced level, it should be easier to affect them with the gas.
As I used the gas to make them kill each other, the werewolves noticed that I'm facing the giants alone and thought that they want to help. They don't need to do that though.
"King! I will help… what the hell?"
It was Jack who said that. He run as fast as possible here, and when he noticed something is strange, he stopped all of a sudden.
"Step back, or they will target you. I alone am enough here. Take care of other places," I said.
Jack is the second strongest werewolf after Shelia. Though the gap between their strength is bigger since I brought Shelia too many locations. But he is much stronger and faster than the time he fought Kayla. But I still think that Kayla will still win if they fight once again.
Jack stopped after witnessing the giants are punching each other with the intent to kill. My magic is working really well on them. Though the amount of mana I used is much more when I use it on a single giant, than when I used it on three monkeys.
One giant equal to four or five monkeys. Is that how math works? I don't know. After all, even five monkeys will be squashed easily by the giant with one hit.
Maybe it's because they have bigger lungs?
In any case, the giants and the surrounding monsters are easily defeated without having the others to lift a finger.
This time, not just Jack. But many other members of our group, including the angels and the humans, watched the giants killing each other in horror.
"Umm… Master? Is that your doing?" Graham asked.
"Yes. Oh, right. I haven't shown you what other thing I can do, huh? Maybe I should have brought you over during the time I experimented on the monkeys," I said.
"…Master! I promise you that I and the angels will be loyal to you for the rest of our lives!" Graham said as he kneeled in front of me.
Is he that afraid of me using this gas on the angels? I even see the angels nearby kneeled down like Graham did.
"Don't worry. I won't use it on you guys. Unless I have to. But I hope it won't get that far," I said.
With this, the angels' loyalty toward me is increased a lot. I doubt any of them dare to betray me after seeing that.
Knowing that this side is totally secure, they split up and searched for enemies on their own instead of waiting. Sigh… there are too many battle-crazed people here.
Well, I will be the one staying behind with Elsie, Sunny, and the others who choose to wait and see.
I looked inside the dome where Angela is, and see that while closing her eyes, she seems to be in pain. But she endures it.
Four elements, which opposing each other like ice and fire, are forcefully combined inside of her. Making her feels chaotic energy inside of her.
At least that's what I think. I can only wish her for the best and protect her for the incoming hostiles.
The others are spread too wide and creates several small gaps letting some monsters they didn't kill to pass through. I guess I can't just sit still after all.
But before they come close, Shirley appear from the resting area and used powerful ice magic to build an ice wall covering the dome.
"I can't just sit still while monsters are trying to kill my friend," Shirley said.
Her ice element might still be at advanced level, but she is cultivating it in the north where it's the coldest, so it will not be long until she reached expert level. But her wind element has reached expert level already.
Shirley flew to the sky as she used Ice Spikes to shot the enemies to dead. Sometimes, when the enemies are crowded in one place, she would use a wide area Wind Slashes so she can defeat many of them in one go.
"Shirley. You are too much in a hurry to cultivate your ice element already before you get used to your expert level wind element. Try to use less mana but with the same strength as before," Veronica said as she is the senior one in wind element.
"Right. Sorry. I'll get used to it in this battle," Shirley said.
This is also a good time for those who have recently improved their level to get used to their new strength.
Veronica is acting like the mentor to the two recently improved wind mages, Shirley and Wendy. While Celestine is mentoring Kayla, and Julia is mentoring Candy. Though in Julia's case, because Candy is learning more things even before she became expert level, the two are teaching each other.
As for Kron, he has become expert level for quite a while, and doesn't need any more guidance.
I wonder if any of us can reach master level before the raid. Though I won't hope too much, it's still best if someone can reach that level.
I believe that as long as Angela can breakthrough to expert level safely, she alone is enough to fight one artificial master level mage. I don't know about the real master level mage though.
I looked at everyone and see that everyone has become much stronger now even though some of them haven't increased their level yet. I actually moved to tears thinking that we can finally have a chance against the cult.
"Roy, you're crying," Victoria said.
"Yeah. We have come this far and everyone is now much stronger than when we first met. I truly wish that we can destroy the cult. So many expert level mages here. And they are much stronger than average expert level mages," I said.
"You're too emotional. But you're right. I also never thought that you would be able to cut through magic. Even among Aura users of my time, it was just a legend," Sonia said. When did she get here?
Because this is an important event, I asked Sonia to stay in this world as long as possible. As for important matter in my world, I told Albert to take care of it himself.
And now, I also have a small camera attached to my body. Because Marie found out that Monsters World is the moon, she enhanced the signal transmitter and receiver so it can receive and transmit signal between two worlds. The Monsters World and the humans' world.
Although Albert and the others can only see the delayed broadcast because of the distance, Marie did it.
I think Albert is watching me making the giants killing each other now. And soon, he will hear the conversation about me crying.
With this many people here, Angela doesn't need to worry about her safety and can focus everything on breaking through. And even someone is injured, we have many healers flying in the sky.
Oh? I see some angels lifted their spears and participating in a battle. I guess even among them, some of them would end up becoming battle-crazed as well after being close with the werewolves for a while.
Seeing them using light magic to shoot from distance, Kayla also tried to do it. She couldn't do it before, but now that she has learned a lot from the angels, she can use Light Beam to shoot light to the enemies. And this is much faster than throwing rocks to the opponent.
I see Candy and Wendy joining together to make a big fire with Candy's fire magic and Wendy's wind magic, to burn many monsters far from here. They have slowly getting used to their new strength.
But when will Angela finish breaking through? I hope it won't be too long.
