Naturally, that will cost a lot more mana and his skills needed to be better with that elent to make good use of the water that will serve as division between the two areas.
As Rain journeyed through various towns and settlents, he made it a point to share the unfolding events with the local residents. He knew that his ssage would cause a range of reactions, but he just ignored the mixed responses he encountered.
In so places, people greeted him with skepticism and even resentnt, perceiving him as a traitor to his own kind for opposing the human army. Despite the less-than-warm reception, Rain pressed on, prioritizing the greater good over personal popularity.
In other towns, the reception was openly hostile, with residents harboring deep-seated animosity towards Rain due to his past actions. Nevertheless, he persisted in delivering his ssage. He shared critical information and moved on, that was all that he wanted to do anyway.
Rain reached their capital in the middle of the afternoon of the next day and soon he headed to the council. Josar wasn't there, but the council mbers still received him since they assud that the humans had an important ssage to them. They never imagined what was the real truth.
As Rain delivered the grim news of the human army's actions to the council mbers, the room was filled with anger and frustration. So council mbers expressed their outrage without thinking twice.
"Those dirty humans! How dare they invade our territory and harm our people?"
"This is a clear act of aggression that we cannot overlook. We must respond swiftly and decisively."
"Their actions reveal their disregard for the truce and diplomacy. We must defend our people and retaliate and exterminate them all."
"Not my problem," Rain said. "I guess I will reach your border and then return after passing the ssage. Do what you want with what you have learned."
Rain also hated the idea of owing favors to others, so he decided to work for the extra potions. At the sa ti, he would be able to see the results of the skirmishes of that day and the next before returning ho.
Although it was a bit uncomfortable to carry the large box, Rain got a lot of experience in the wind mage's path since he used wind magic to move in the air. It was unlikely that he would be able to unlock the Earth mage's path before returning ho, but it will be close enough.
Regardless, on the morning of the next day, Rain arrived at the camp where Josar was and he was completely shocked by what he had heard… Since Rain ca that far to inform them of that, there was no point in not believing him.
"Pass the ssage to the other military posts and make them retreat imdiately!" Josar shouted. "We will leave this area to the dragons for the ti being. It is ti to resu the war against humans!"
As Josar's announcent spread among the gathered magic people, a range of emotions swirled within the crowd. Many magic people couldn't hide their excitent. They let out triumphant cheers and shouts, eager for the opportunity to protect their holand and seek retribution for the past wrongs. Rain thought that their mory was really bad…
A few wore worried expressions, their eyes reflecting the uncertainty of what lay ahead. mories of the devastation from the last war haunted them, and they feared for the safety of their loved ones.
Despite the range of emotions, an unwavering determination pervaded the crowd. They recognized the gravity of the situation and were committed to defending their holand, regardless of their personal feelings.
In any case, while everyone was preparing to move, they ignored him through and through. He ca to warn them, but to avoid future problems, they will act from now on that all humans are his enemies. So, Rain's job was over and he began his return to ho.
The next day at night, Rain was already back at the place where he found Geio. The town had been completely taken by the human army and since a lot of resources were left behind, they were using them.
"I guess the first part of their campaign was to reach this city as soon as possible… co to think of it, Branden morized and reported about the geography of the magic people's territory to the king… he probably planned this thanks to that," Rain thought.
There were no signs of the king's banner around the city, or Joanis for that matter. So, it would be hard to find them there…
When he left the town behind, Rain found so remains of golems behind… it seed that so people stayed behind out of stupidity or to just buy ti for the others. Either way, the destiny was clear.
"I guess I won't be able to see them fighting… but there is another way to get so information about their military power in this situation," Rain thought.
While he was flying, Rain kept looking around for signs of movents and soon he confird that so caravans were crossing in the dark of the night the area toward the human territory. Just like before, he saw with his magic eyes, magic people in cages, he also saw so of the special demi humans leading the caravan, the ones that were part of the main army of Joanis.
"No ti for rcy," Rain thought.
With unwavering determination, Rain summoned a colossal sphere of water into the night sky. This orb crackled with magical energy as he compressed it, turning it into a high-pressure, concentrated stream. Then, in a burst of power, he released the pent-up energy, unleashing a powerful jet of water that streaked across the darkness like a cot.
This torrent of water struck the enemies and their wagons with devastating force. So were torn in two by the sheer impact, while others were sent tumbling through the air by the ferocity of the attack.
