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.
