822 The Second Day
The first day is over. It was a sleepless night for some since even at night, the monster won’t stop coming.
But it wasn’t all that bad. Because we’re on the back of a living creature. And we didn’t stop moving at all.
Though it was the first time that I see Andro sleeping while flying. Or should I say gliding?
Before it was dark, Andro called me saying that he’s going to sleep. He won’t know what will happen when he’s sleeping so he told me to be careful. He just told me that he should fly straight when he’s sleeping.
And as he sleeps, the speed we’re moving keeps reducing gradually. And we’re also descending a bit gradually. But it was stable on his back as he glides in the night sky. So we’re fine until the morning when Andro wakes up.
Even with how loud we are on his back, he didn’t wake up at all. Must be a nice sleep.
As for me, I didn’t sleep at all. I want to see their plan to fight at night. I’ll start sleeping from tonight on Andro’s head. Since looking at his sleeping face, it seems like it was a really good sleep and I felt sleepy as well.
It’s the morning and Andro had just woken up. There are still some people fighting on his back trying to protect Kron. And there’s even a mountain of soil and rocks on his back. I helped the earth mage to bring them there since I was not busy.
After Kron reached master level, we will clean up Andro’s back again. All the remains of the fight will be cleaned up properly. Just to make sure that there won’t be any other creatures started living there. Other than us. If we need to.
.....
“Oh, right. Andro, did you ever sleep back before you meet me? I don’t think with how much pain on your back, it would be easy for you to sleep,” I asked Andro curiously.
“Actually, I have never been able to sleep ever since I got an itchy back. After you cleaned my back and scratched it, I started to sleep again. It was such a great sleep that I want to do it again. So, now I would always sleep at night. Especially since the monsters would rarely get close to me at night for some reason. Well, tonight is different, right? But I have you guys to do something even if there are strong monsters coming,” Andro said confidently.
“Well, thank you for putting so much trust in us. By the way, do you know any other flying creatures who might be as strong or even stronger than you? It would be great if we have more information on which monster we should be wary of,” I said.
“I think all the creatures that I have seen are all weaker than me. At least that’s from what I can remember. So you can’t really rely on me for that information,” Andro said.
“Do you think that there are other Kaiser Dragon like you in this world?” I asked again.
“If there are any, I think you would have meet them first before I do anyway with those eyes of yours,” Andro said.
He’s right. I might not be able to see the difference between a giant monster and a mountain if I look at their outer appearance. But with my Divine Vision, I can see their inner organ. Unless those monsters have different color for their blood, I can tell the differences between a mountain and a huge monsters.
If the color of their blood is anything other than red, I will be curious first before I can tell if they are living creatures. I don’t know if I will see some other magical sight or not.
After chatting with Andro for a while, I move to his back to see how the others are doing. Just like usual, there are a lot of monsters coming. And everyone is working hard fighting the enemies.
As expected, the first one to get tired is the monsters group. Especially the werewolves and the weretigers.
Thanks to their rivalry, they would go all out from the start. They are still defeating a lot of monsters now. But I can tell that their movements are slightly more sluggish than yesterday. I bet they didn’t even take a proper rest.
Then I approached Sunglasses who is riding on a pegasus.
“Hey, Sunglasses. Will that be a problem?” I asked.
“What is?” he asked back.
“I mean the werewolves and the weretigers. They have been fighting non-stop and they started to move more sluggish than yesterday. Instead of fighting the monsters, it’s like they are facing each other,” I said.
“They follow you, right? Then you can just tell them to do something about it,” Sunglasses said.
“Did you forget that you’re the one in charge of this operation? Even if they follow me, you are still someone who lead. It’s just them who are doing it now. But in the future, there might be more people who won’t obey you just because of your position. You have to think of what to do with them,” I advised the general of this troop.
“You’re right. I’ll take care of it. It’s a good chance to do it now since there’s not many monsters right now. Kayla, you will be in charge temporarily while I take care of this problem.”
“Sure. Leave it to me,” Kayla replied as Sunglasses is flying toward where Tiger and Shelia is.
Then, Sunglasses gave some order to the werewolves and the weretigers to split into several groups. That way, only some groups will be active while the others will be resting.
“If you do this well, I’ll ask Roy to accept any challenge from you. And he won’t be able to refuse it,” Sunglasses said.
Hearing that only make them more excited. Did he just use me as a bargaining chip?
Well, using whatever means necessary is important to gain victory. In that matter, Sunglasses is doing well.
...Hey, that offer should only for the weretigers and the werewolves. Why is the other who heard that is getting excited about it?
Though I think I know who will be the first one to challenge me. It would be Kron. He’s going to test his new power against me whom he thinks that there won’t be any problem at all if he used all his power.
I feel like being a shooting target for his magic. A living and moving one. But that’s fine. He also need someone equal or stronger than him to fight so he knows how strong he is currently.
Most of the flying monsters are generally weak. But they are still useful. So the tamer started looking for some who might be stronger than usual, and tame them. I feel like he might be creating another Monsters Village with his tamed monsters.
“Hey, how many more monsters can you tame?”
I approached the tamer and asked him a question.
“Still a lot more. Then I will have at least three open slot for my tamed monsters at all time. In case I encountered some really strong monster. By the way, how about this Kaiser Dragon? Does he want to be under contract?” the tamer asked.
“He said that he doesn’t want to. And it’s not like we need to. He will help us without the contract anyway. But you can ask him again if you want. Maybe he will change his mind,” I said.
“I don’t think he will change his mind. But I’ll ask him later. Though I don’t think he will be able to go to our world easily seeing how big he is,” the tamer said.
Yeah. It would take a lot of mana just to move him using portal. As for summoning magic that I can use to my contracted monsters, I don’t need to open a portal. But if it’s Andro, even if I don’t need to open a portal to summon him, it will still take a lot of mana to do it.
I still have one more slot for a monster. I think I want an aquatic monster. Possibly, an amphibious monster like Spot. A monster that can live underwater or on land just fine, but extremely strong.
Like the Kraken maybe? But I think that one is way too dangerous. Maybe someone that I can understand instead of having to force them.
Oh, I can see Spot’s children are fighting other sky serpents. Those sky serpents are creatures from this world. Unlike Spot’s children who were born and raised on Earth. So they should be more powerful.
But Spot’s children managed to defeat them. I guess they are already stronger than the same species from this world.
Wait, they are sea serpents and only a quarter sky serpents. Maybe it’s because sea serpents are stronger than sky serpents?
Whatever the case, they are strong. So strong that the tamer is picking a fight with Spot if he could tame any one of them. The tamer gave up when Spot said that he won’t help us anymore if he’s forcing him or his children to be tamed.
There’s no need to make a contract with monsters who are already willing to help us. If the tamer is forcing them to make a contract with him, then I will interfere.
Though I think I might do it soon seeing how the tamer look so angry.
Well, other than that, there’s nothing big that needs my interference today as well. I hope this will continue until Kron reach master level.
Be quick, Kron. We don’t know when the cult is going to make their move.
