735 Sacrificing the Vampires
“So... is there anything else for us to do?” I asked Kayla.
“Return back to Monsters World. This place will be completely investigated by people from Varadis that old man Henry sent. We don’t need to do anything else here,” she said.
“I see. Gather everyone then except those who are from Varadis, I will return everyone back to their own country,” I said.
“You’re done? Shouldn’t there be a supply coming from the cult to the destroyed base?” Kayla asked.
“Yes. But everyone is too tired. I’ll just bring the monsters with me. Also some other who are willing to help, I guess. But I don’t plan to enter their portal anymore. I’ll continue thinking about how I will throw a Blobby into the portal. You too, take some rest. You’re already tired from healing everyone,” I said to Kayla.
“Okay then. I will call everyone,” she said.
Soon after, everyone except those from Varadis gathered. I opened portals for them to return to Consenza, Arturo, and Tatrama. Derek and some master level mages who said that they’re going to join us went separate ways.
Derek will meet Albert, while the other master level mages will go to Consenza and meet Celestine.
They are the master level mages who are related to the kids or guardians of the kids that I captured and brought to Consenza. They will meet the kids first to make sure of their safety.
.....
Claudia said that she has a plan to make sure that the master level mages wont betray us and asked me to send some strong people as well just in case. So I got Angela and Kron there. Claudia said that one is enough, but I sent two anyway.
If they can convince the master level mages to join us, that would be great. I also asked Claudia if I need to bring Albert or not. She said that it doesn’t have to be right away. But taking Albert to them is still essential so we can tell if they’re going to betray us or not.
I don’t think any of them, or anyone at all, has similar mindset to the cat-man. So I don’t need to worry about being betrayed if Albert says so.
Still, if they can change side easily just by getting the kids to safety, that also means that they can go back to the cult if the kids are taken hostages. That’s why we need to make sure that the children will be in a safe place.
Everyone returns back to their own country. Spot and his children left as well. But they didn’t enter the portal. They left from the sea.
It leaves me, the werewolves, the angels, and the vampires in this place. There’s also an archangel that I just met. He’s the one that Graham told me about.
“Let’s go to Monsters World then. Graham, you and that archangel will enter the portal to the village,” I said.
“Understood.”
The two entered the village while the rest of us returned back to the destroyed base.
“Roy, if any of the place connected to villages or cities similar to the previous locations, I don’t think just us will be enough,” Victoria said.
“I know. Our goal is not to fight them. We’re just going to make sure that we can at least throw a single Blobby into the portal once it opened. Victoria, create as many clones as possible and share them with everyone,” I said.
This is the only thing I can do for now. Even the monsters are tired. Maybe some werewolves wanted to continue fighting, but I won’t let them. Even after we destroyed several bases in our world, the Evil God still hasn’t been found. We need as many helper as possible.
Also, the cat-man said that the one called Evil God should be much stronger than us. We still can’t rest easy it seems.
It may just be his instinct. But for some reason, I can’t say that he’s wrong.
We’re resting in the buildings that our earth mages previously built. They’re still here. After the raid on the two villages, we raised some buildings for us to rest. And it’s still there.
According to the schedule, there should be less than an hour left before they open a portal to deliver supplies. But they can still come anytime they want.
So we waited. But soon after, we have guests.
“What happened here? Everything is destroyed.”
The one who asked was a vampire. He’s the one that still remains in the old vampire castle. Along with other vampires who were charmed by Arin.
And I have a good idea.
“Arin, you said that it’s fine if the vampires here died, right?” I asked Arin who was next to me after drinking a bit of my blood.
“Yes I did,” she replied.
“But don’t you have the instinct to breed? Having kids in the future?” I asked.
“We don’t need to breed with the same race. Us humanoid monsters can breed with humans or other humanoid monsters. That’s how Graham can create shadow clones. And non-humanoid monsters can also breed with different races as long as they are similar to each others. Just like Spot’s parents who are Sea Serpent and Sky Serpent,” Arin said.
Oh, right. I forgot about them. Though my purpose of asking her is not about whether I can breed with the vampires or not.
“I see. Then I will use those vampires’ death in my plan. Arin, follow me,” I said as I left the building we’re resting in and greeted the vampires.
“Lady Arin! You’re here!” the vampire who just arrived said.
“I am. And we have something to say.”
I have told Arin what our plan will be.
Arin then let me talk to the vampires.
“Sorry, but due to some circumstances, we needed to destroy this place. But don’t worry. In less than one hour, a portal will be opened to somewhere with a lot of humans. Even more than any that you’ve seen in this place. So, you can enter there and have a feast there as much as you like. In fact, it’s actually an order from Arin herself. But I don’t want you to risk your lives for—”
I haven’t finished talking when the vampires suddenly shout.
“We will do it! If it’s Lady Arin’s wish, we will do it! Even if the others don’t want to do it, I will go by myself!”
“What are you talking about?! I will go as well! You think you can gain Lady Arin’s favor by saying that?”
“Shut up! Wait, no. Just continue fighting so you will be too tired to go. I will go instead.”
And the vampires started arguing and say that they will go instead of the others. That’s great.
I said that it was Arin’s order because if any of them got tamed, and forced to talk, they will be asked who destroyed the base and why they entered the portal.
All blame will be on Arin. The Vampire Queen. She will be targeted by the cult. But she said that it’s fine. It’s not like anyone can tell if she’s a vampire or not just by looking. She’s pretty much look like a human.
Well, I just need to protect her even more. Though even if I don’t protect her, I think she’s strong enough to handle some small fries. If there’s someone she can’t handle, then that person should be stronger than any average master level mage.
“Okay. That’s great. I salute your resolve to help Arin,” I said to the vampires to stop their stupid argument. They all just need to go and die. Though it would be great if they didn’t die and continue terrorizing the place they go to.
I also patted their shoulder and marked each of them with several Blobbies. This way, once they entered the portal, I will have a transfer point ready.
From my observation when I disguised myself as someone living in the base, I know that they only have one place from where they transferred the supplies from. But there were several summoners from there. So they each opened a portal from the same place and deliver the supplies for the people in the base.
So, as long as the vampire can enter the portal, even if it’s just one of them, then mission is over. We can take care of that place later.
But I also need someone to confirm the location of that place as well. That’s why on those Blobbies I used to mark the vampires, some of them have Sonia’s soil. That way, she can teleport there right away to inform us where she is.
After that, we waited for a while and several portals were opened together.
The people inside the portal were shocked to see that the place they delivered supply to everyday has been destroyed. And there were some monsters in front of them to make them think that it was the monsters who were responsible for the destruction of the base.
I told the monsters to act menacing in front of the portal. With the vampires ready to enter the portals once they’re opened.
When the people watching were shocked, the vampires made their move. And they entered the portal easily.
“Close the portal! Monsters have destroyed the base! Don’t let any more of them enter!”
One of the summoner shouted. But it’s too late. The vampires have entered.
Now I have the location marked. And Sonia can get there easily.
Now... let’s go home.
