Chapter 495: Raiding the Cult’s Hiding Spot

There are no children here. Some of the people have explosive device in their mouth, but some don’t. But I still should assume that all of the cult members are expert level mages.

Other then those from the cult, there are some people I recognize from their wanted posters. As expected, the cult is trying to recruit criminals. I won’t have any problem with killing them all.

And since Claudia didn’t tell me that there’s a spy among them, I won’t have to worry about killing our own in this place.

Now, should I call the others right away? Or should I wait until whatever event they are in gathering people to this place is happening? In any case, it’s good that so many enemies are gathering here.

I need to make sure that not a single enemy escaped. Good thing there’s not a single mohawk among them.

For now, I will keep my distance so I can use portal without being seen. I’ll just ask the girls and the werewolves to help. That should be more than enough.

First, I opened a portal to Lynn’s location. That’s where I told the girls to gather. Only those who want to participate. And I see all of them are here.

.....

“You’re all here? Well, doesn’t matter. Just put on your mask so you won’t be seen,” I said.

“How many enemies we’re facing?” Kayla asked as she walked through the portal.

“I see about a hundred of them. That’s quite a lot. Let’s assume that all the enemies are expert level mages. Other than that, there are many criminals with bounty for their heads. No children. We can kill them all,” I said.

“What about artificial master level mages? Do you see any?” Kayla asked again as everyone has entered the portal.

“Nope. I didn’t see a single mohawk among them. And none of those who have gathered there noticed me looking at them. Though I don’t know if there will be someone else coming or not. Whatever event they are having, it hasn’t started yet. Oh, wait. I’m seeing something,” I said.

Back to where the criminals and the cult members are gathering, I can see some of them are having a spat. And they are all those with bounty in their heads. Criminals. I guess that’s to be expected since it’s a gathering of criminals.

“They are having an argument. Though it won’t be a surprise if they started fighting since they are criminals. Other than the expert level cult members, the other should be easy to kill. I’ll go call the werewolves to help making sure that no one escapes from there,” I said.

I opened the portal to Shelia’s location. Good thing she’s with the other werewolves at the moment.

“Shelia, go get around thirty werewolves and enter the portal. I will explain it after you’re all here,” I said.

Shelia then go away looking for other werewolves, while five other werewolves who were there with her entered the portal right away.

Shelia then entered the portal leading about forty werewolves.

“...I said thirty, but you got forty? Combined with the previous werewolves, we already have forty-six werewolves including you. Well, whatever. That’s fine,” I said.

And then, I pointed my finger to where the cult members are gathering.

“Over there, the cult members are gathering criminals to recruit them to the cult. There are about a hundred of them, but there will probably more coming. I want Shelia and the werewolves to make sure that no one escapes from here. And if any of you werewolves can track the smell of someone coming, go and kill them as well. There shouldn’t be any children, so it’s fine to kill them all,” I said.

“Roy, don’t you think that our number is too little to fight? They have a hundred,” Veronica asked.

“Don’t worry. Many of the enemies are criminals who hate each other. There won’t be any cooperation among them. And even the weakest among us could defeat any average expert level mage. We have enough number to kill them since they don’t have any artificial master level mage here. But if any of you see a mohawk approaching, stall for time as long as possible. Other than Angela and I, no one should approach them one on one. You must fight in a group. Got it?”

Everyone nodded with serious expression. Though the werewolves look happy. I guess they just can’t wait to have an action.

“Good. The enemy is having an in-fighting because of the criminals gathered there. It’s a good time for a surprise attack. Let’s go!”

After my signal, everyone dispersed. None of them attacked the enemy straight. They surrounded the place first even without my order. That’s just how capable they are now.

As for me, I will go right to the center of the enemies and start causing ruckus.

Though I didn’t run straight forward to the location. I run to the sky, and as I reached right above the hideout, I stopped running and let gravity pull me to the ground. I’m freefalling right to the middle of the enemies.

The enemies started fighting among themselves. But the cult members don’t pay it any mind. Even if they kill each other, it doesn’t matter to them. They are just recruiting them. and if they died because of a dispute, for the cult, it’s just another weakling who won’t be able to join them.

Just like back then. When I was just returned back in time, and stumbled upon the cult’s recruitment.

The cult let the new recruits to fight monsters to death. And only those who survive will join them. But none of them succeeded since I killed not only the new recruits, but also the monsters as well.

But this time is different.

Back then, in Melk, the enemies are weak. They are probably advanced level mages at most. But I managed to kill them all. And now, the cult members have expert level mages with them.

Unlike before, it’s impossible for me alone to fight them all. But unlike before, I’m not alone.

And that’s how I will defeat all of them.

Back when I gathered everyone nearby, I used air magic to protect themselves from what I will be doing. Spreading dangerous gases that will create chaos. The infuriating gas that will make them angry and attack each other. Well, they are doing it now. But I will still use it.

“Someone is coming! From above!”

Someone notices me because I didn’t intend to hide myself. And as the enemy started attacking me with Fireball, I stepped on the air to make my fall faster. And that’s how I easily dodged their magic.

As I land on top of someone’s head and killing him instantly, I used infuriating gas to make everyone lose their cool. Though I might not need to use it on the fighting criminals, but they seem to have stopped after they saw me easily kill someone.

“Who the hell are you!?”

Why should I answer? There’s no one who will retort to my joke. Victoria is still busy after all.

I swung Reizpear and killed two more people. I can see that everyone is charging in and ready to fight. Though since I’m the focus of the strongest people here, the expert level mages, the others might only get to fight the weaker ones.

For now, I’ll go and find those who don’t get affected by my infuriating gas. They should be expert level mages that should be killed immediately. As for the others, they should be weaker.

I found two of them standing in a row, so I threw Reizpear straight at them. it also pierced another man behind them.

“He’s armless now! Kill him!”

Am I? I have Blobbykatana in my hand though? Well, no one would ever imagine that I’m using a sword to fight against a group of dangerous mages.

The cult members are already organized, but the criminals are still in shock. And they easily inhaled the infuriating gas, which makes them angry and they started casting various magic at me. They don’t care if their magic would hit other people.

The cult members who didn’t get much effect from the gas, couldn’t prepare themselves as they got hit by the stray magic while I casually dodged those easy to predict magic. And I slashed my Blobbykatana toward the cult members, while moving toward where my Reizpear is. Still stuck in the body of the men I pierced through.

I can’t use a gun since Victoria isn’t here. I would just waste the Blobbies that I have since I can’t have the Blobbybullets disappear without Victoria’s help. That’s why I will use Reizpear and other melee weapons.

Some of the criminals who sensed something is wrong in the center of the hideout started to retreat. But they don’t know that werewolves are going to bite them to their deaths. No one knows.

While I’m busy moving around, dodging the enemies’ magic while killing them, Angela could easily defeat several of them in one go. I think it won’t take long until everything is over.
