776 Poisoned Fish Sticks
“So, even though there is a church here, there’s no pope or even archbishop?”
While still hiding under the table, I asked the agent about the situation in this city. Since there’s no one nearby, I can talk. But just to make sure, I’m still hiding under the table.
“If everyone equally worship the Evil God, there’s no need for rank. After all, everyone here seems to know that none of them are above the others in term of loyalty. Seems like the fight here will be the most difficult fight we will have. They are so coordinated together. Though I don’t know what will happen in a real fight,” the agent said.
“I see. Then, order some more fish sticks. I hate the cult but they sure made delicious fish sticks.”
While asking the agent, I keep reaching to the plate on the table and grabbed some fish sticks. The smell is so good that I can’t endure it so I keep snatching it from the agent.
“It will be suspicious if I suddenly eat more than I used to. It’s just two days since I came here, but everyone knows me already. I’m already a regular customer here,” the agent said.
“That means there’s a reason you keep coming here, right? Was the fish sticks that delicious?” I asked.
“...yeah.”
“Then it won’t be a problem if you eat more. Since I’m here anyway, you won’t overeat and still be able to continue with the mission,” I said.
.....
And there’s no poison either in the dishes. I guess they don’t really care about this guy. Because if they are suspicious, they would have tried to poison him.
“Wow, this is good indeed. Surprisingly, it’s better than Lina’s fish sticks,” Victoria said.
I also gave some to Airy who enjoyed it. I guess we need to have more.
“While you’re asking for more, don’t forget to ask some takeaway as well. You don’t need to eat more so just give them to me,” I said.
Reluctantly, the agent asked for more fish sticks. As for other dishes, Lina is still better than this restaurant.
I also looked at the kitchen to see how they cook the fish sticks so I can tell Lina about it later. But what I found was something else.
“...I guess we won’t be able to eat those fish sticks ever again. They mixed poison to them,” I said.
“What?! I guess it’s time then. They can no longer let me stay here. And instead of kicking me out, it’s best for them to kill me. But why poison when almost half of the people here can easily kill me?”
After saying that, the agent is looking down to the table. Or to be exact, he’s looking at me through the table.
Though he can’t see through the table. And even though he’s trying to look at my eyes, he’s looking at my neck. Well, I understand what he wants to know.
“I killed some people who could be summoners. Just to make sure that no one can escape from here. Maybe they are going to blame you for it. Anyway, my plan is full frontal battle. I’m going to get some monsters to stay in Magicless Area, then I will return to the city and open a portal to get everyone else. This way, other than portal, these people won’t be able to escape,” I said.
And when there’s someone who is opening a portal, I will kill them.
My targets are summoners and tamers. I don’t know the tamer who is Tiger’s master, so I will try to kill everyone.
There’s also a monsters residence in this place. Various type of monsters are gathering in one location must be tamed monsters.
Some of them were the vampires I sent out first to this place. They didn’t die?
I guess I’ll ask them for some information if possible... I guess not. They were forced to drink something that made them act mindlessly. It’s as if they have become mindless monsters. Just like any other monsters without ability to speak. They seem to only move according to their master’s order.
I guess I can only free them once I kill their master. But they will end up fighting everyone because they have become mindless monsters. I’ll just kill them later in that case.
Probably that is why Tiger is in Magicless Area. If he stayed too long outside Magicless Area, he will be given an order to be turned that way. And to block that order, he has no choice but to stay in Magicless Area.
Another thing was because he’s too strong. If he became weaker because they turned him into a mindless monster, then there’s no point in taming him.
Maybe he was given that order already. Especially since he has stayed for too long outside of Magicless Area when he was fighting Shelia.
“They should have known that I have left the church. I guess it was just the timing. Good thing you’re here. You’re a doctor. Can you help me fake my death?” the agent asked.
“Easy. They will be here soon. Bite into this pill filled with sleeping gas. I’ll give you some so you can use it whenever you want later,” I said.
“Will this be enough? They’re trying to poison me to kill me, right?” he asked.
“There are some people who didn’t die right away when they were bitten by venomous snake. It’s because their immunity is different from other people. If there are any doctor here, they should know that and think that you have better immunity than other people because you’re a hunter,” I said.
“If there’s no doctor, the next time we meet, I’m a corpse. Understood.”
After that, he continue talking to himself about the situation in this city while I keep hiding my presence.
The waiter comes soon after and gave him some fish sticks. Poisoned.
Not just the one to eat here, the takeaway order also poisoned. As if he’s going to eat those poisoned fish sticks first, then go back to the church to eat more poisoned fish sticks.
“Well, good luck. I don’t think I can find anything more about this city, so I will start the fight soon,” I said.
“And I will pretend that I had diarrhea before I eat those fish sticks so I can have more time. See you later. If I’m still alive.”
Clutching his stomach, he left the private room and asked to go to the toilet.
Stay in the toilet for as long as possible. Your survival chance will increase.
I have nothing else to do so I sneak out to the border close to the Magicless Area. Then I summoned the werewolves, angels, vampires, and weretigers who are going to fight.
Even if the angels and vampires rely more on their magic, their natural strength is already stronger than average mages.
“Okay, I forgot to introduce the weretigers to the vampires. Weretigers, vampires. Vampires, weretigers. Now, I want you all to spread out all over this Magicless Area so no one can escape. Then from the border, get closer to the city and kill anyone you see who doesn’t have purple. Any question? If no, then you can move. I’ll get mages reinforcement from the middle of the city. Good luck.”
After that, I sneaked into the city again. From empty alley to empty alley. Seems like everyone has learned that there’s a murder case in the city. And they actually believed that the drug addict pharmacist was the one killing the victims.
The only reason for that must be because that drug addict pharmacist doesn’t have any friends. And no one like him. So they believed that he’s truly the murderer when he’s just a victim.
Well, good enough for me. Though his funeral which I think will proceed tomorrow won’t happen because of me. And the place where I will call the others from is the center of this cemetery where that drug addict pharmacist should be buried tomorrow.
“Alright. There’s no one nearby, so I will open the portal. Once I do, there should be some mages who will notice us. Let’s get ready to fight!”
I also told everyone using the forum to get ready. And after checking the surrounding again, I opened a big portal for everyone to come.
“Sunglasses! You’re in charge here!” I said to Sunglasses.
“It’s weird to see through someone’s eye. Especially if it’s a monster. But I will do my best,” Sunglasses said.
Sunglasses is now with Elsie. Lina’s familiar. The All-seeing Eye.
Elsie now has the power to let other people see what she sees. She doesn’t need to tell Lina about what she sees anymore since she can just connect one of her tentacle to other people and have them see what she sees.
Basically, it’s as if another people other than me have Divine Vision ability. Which is good. Especially if that person is a good commander.
“Good luck. I’ll target the summoners first so I will leave everything else to you,” I said.
Sunglasses might be the commander. But I will still continue moving on my own and do my thing. As long as I don’t cause any problem, it will be fine.
