772 One Step Closer to be the Weretiger King
“Okay, let’s go. We will go that way and out of the Magicless Area where I will transport you all to Monsters World.”
After we told the weretigers what we’re here for, I told them that we will move to a safe place before transporting them to Monsters World. Though only I know that the way we will go to is not the shortest route.
I’m going to where I last met Tiger so he can meet the others before I take them away. Just showing him that I’m keeping my words.
I’m bringing them to a safe place. So you don’t need to worry about anything else. Is what I’m trying to tell him.
I let them prepare everything to move. Though I don’t think they have anything important.
So after a short time, all the weretigers are ready to leave.
“Are you all ready? Then let’s go!”
Riding on Ray, I slowed down my pace so the slowest weretiger can keep up with everyone. We’re going to Tiger’s last known location before leaving the Magicless Area.
And we really found him. Shelia can smell his scent and I can see him with my Divine Vision.
.....
So I move faster ahead the others. Leaving everyone behind to catch up with Tiger who just realized that I’m moving toward him.
“Why are you here again? Do you really need me to fight you?” asked Tiger.
“No need. I already know that I will be the one to win. I’m just here to trap you again.”
I quickly drew a circle around Tiger just like before. But since he has experienced being trapped inside my Barrier, he quickly stepped back before I could finish drawing a circle.
“Wow, you learned. But I’m still better than you.”
Riding on Ray and drawing a circle on the ground with a cane doesn’t inconvenient me at all. He’s like an extension of my body. It’s like we became one when I ride him.
I can feel what he feels, and I think that he can feel what I feel. Though I can’t confirm since Ray can’t talk like he did when I met him.
While riding Ray, I quickly chased after Tiger and drew another circle that trapped him. Again. Making him unable to leave. Again.
“Why do I have to keep being treated this way?”
Tiger keep banging on the barrier. Which won’t break at all with his strength.
“This time, so you can say goodbye to your fellow tribesmen. I found them and will bring them to Monsters World. And since you’re inside my barrier, you won’t be able to hurt anyone,” I said.
Then I pointed to where I came from. Shelia appeared first. Then the weretigers were all behind her.
“Borsce... We will leave this place and follow him. He said that tomorrow, he’s going to fight the city in the middle. And possibly fight your master as well. He said that in case he needed help, he will ask our help. So we will help him,” Grandpa Weretiger said.
“I see. That’s good. You can stay there and enjoy as much fight as you want. And even if you decided to join the war tomorrow, if you’re with him, I can rest easy since you won’t all get easily tamed. So, will you join him in the war? After all this fight for the sake of killing my master, he will continue the fight to destroy the enemy. What will you do?” Tiger asked.
“We only let our strongest make our decision. And it’s still you. Even if they said that you lost, we haven’t seen it yet so you are still our king. So we will let you make our decision after you are freed from your master,” Grandpa Weretiger said.
The other weretigers also agreed with Grandpa Weretiger. So it’s all up to Tiger to decide.
“...Can’t you see? He did something and I can’t do anything about it. Look, I’m the one inside a cage. He’s obviously stronger than me. That’s enough reason to make him the king,” Tiger said while trying his best to destroy the barrier.
That’s right! I will be the Weretiger King! Then should I call myself Tigerwolf King? Werewere King?
It’s difficult to call me both Weretiger King and Werewolf King. So I need something that will make it easier for other people to call me.
Though should I say that I’m also the Elf King and the Angel King? They don’t really have a king though. But they know hierarchy and that I’m much higher than them. I guess I just let other people decide how to call me.
...And it’s not like anyone will call me Werewolf King or Weretiger King anyway. Roy is the easiest way for other people to call me. Second only after Mr. Handsome.
“That will be for later. You said it yourself that you are a tamed monster now. And that we shouldn’t blindly trust you since your master might give you an order to tell us something you don’t really meant just so they can lure us out and tame us. So, you need to either be freed and told us yourself that he’s our king, or die. And we won’t let you die. Just wait. Tomorrow, you should be free,” Grandpa Weretiger said.
Unlike Grandpa Werewolf, Grandpa Weretiger is much wiser. Maybe because he’s not the strongest in the tribe anymore. So he tried to improve the tribe in another way.
“Since you’re done talking, let’s get out of here. You will meet again tomorrow anyway. Tiger, I don’t know what will happen once the contract is broken since you’re inside the Magicless Area. Maybe you won’t realize it when your master is killed. So, I will send some weretigers to your place once your master is killed. One of them will be carrying your mustache. Maybe if you’re lucky, the fight will still goes on and you can join us. Then, see you tomorrow.”
We left him alone before the barrier is broken on its own. Though he should still have at least thirty minutes left.
He told me that he doesn’t need anyone to bring him food. So I won’t do it. But I hope he won’t starve since many monsters and animal nearby has gone thanks to his presence alone.
This time, I took the shortest route in case we encounter monster that could be Tiger’s prey.
Then I opened a portal and let all the weretigers into Monsters World.
Of course Shelia entered first to inform the others. Just so the werewolves won’t pick a fight against the weretigers.
“Weretigers, I introduce you to the werewolves, the elves, and the angels. And there are some humans that you needed to be introduced to. Important humans who are my allies. But they don’t have time. So I will introduce you tomorrow,” I said.
“Whoa, so many strong monsters! And not just the werewolves! I can’t wait to fight them!”
I heard that from the weretigers’ side. As for the werewolves’ side...
“Look! Our king is bringing a lot of weretigers! Let’s ask them for a fight!”
I guess there will be some battles tonight. But I don’t want any one of them to be heavily injured before tomorrow’s important mission.
Saving the agent is secondary. But it will be great to rescue him.
Our main mission is still destruction. To destroy everything related to the cult. And this time, it’s an entire city.
Maybe it will be like Lawless Country and there are some children there. That will be annoying. I hope that’s not the case.
“Hey. If you want to fight, that’s fine. But remember that I have important mission tomorrow and it’s possible that I will call you all to fight. So those who want to join me tomorrow, don’t fight tonight. Or if you still want to fight, that’s fine. Just make sure that you won’t get injured before tomorrow’s mission.”
I warned all the monsters to not get too excited by our new... members of the village? Well, I think that they will permanently stay in this village. Though I may need to knock Tiger out once to prove them that I’m really stronger than him.
After I gave the weretigers some more instruction, I let the others take care of it.
After that, I return back to Cassau. There’s no more need to investigate the Magicless Area today. Just rest since I don’t know how many times I will use portal and how long the fight will be.
Of course I need to give report to everyone. And thanks to the invention of phone, I don’t need to go there or call Sonia. Sonia even enjoying her free time with Daniel and the others playing together.
I opened the forum and I simply give a report for everyone to read.
[Just one step closer to be Weretiger King]
That’s all I’m writing. And then replies started coming from everyone who read it.
I don’t even need to elaborate with my report. Victoria is happily playing with her phone in her own room and give reply to everyone who asked.
I also told everyone that I will raid the city surrounded by the Magicless Area tomorrow. So those who are probably going to fight can prepare themselves.
Now, let’s sleep.
