"It seems that we aren't as late as I had imagined that we would be…" Seadir suddenly appeared and then said.
Everyone around frowned when they saw Seadir and one hundred sea warriors appearing from their back… there was no sea around, so everyone couldn't help but be speechless. They didn't know that Rain's shop in the city also had an underground tunnel that was connected to the whole kingdom and the sea… Rain didn't only change diapers in the last three years, after all.
Although he did that most of the ti…
"It also seems that a lot already happened," Seadir frowned while looking at Geo's group and the walls of the enemy's camp. "What is the plan?"
"It looks like the magic people want to try a siege to make us waste ti since the beast people are also knocking on our doorstep," Rain said. "So, we will make them regret giving that chance to us."
"That seems interesting, but where are the details?" Seadir asked.
"You sure are hasty, it isn't fun if I explain the whole plan all at once," Rain shrugged. "First, we will wait until everyone evacuates, and then we will go all out."
The evacuation was necessary because the plan was dangerous even for them, even more so for the people in the city… Rain wasn't the type to do things half-assedly, so he was planning to change the area a bit for a while… It was a pity, but it couldn't be helped. Besides, he wanted to make the other side understand that they were only going to keep losing their forces for as long as they wanted.
When night ca, the magic people had finished raising thick and stable walls in all directions around their camp. They knew that the sea folk might co to help Rain if things got dicey for him and the walls would withstand the attacks of most of the sea warriors… it was hard to imagine that the sea emperor would join that fight, after all.
In any case, when night fell, things got quiet in the area and cold as well. Lately, that area has beco like that because of the sea waters that crossed the continent in that region… Thanks to that, the magic people didn't think much of it. Until it started to snow…
It didn't take long for the magic people to understand that Rain was at it again. They knew that he could manipulate the weather to that extent… still, they had been waiting for that.
Hundreds of people who could use wind magic fired wind spheres at the clouds in the sky, and when they reached those, the wind spheres exploded and pushed away the clouds in all directions… they kept doing that for several hours, but the clouds would always return.
Although it wasn't snowing inside the camp, the temperature was dropping, and everyone could tell that Rain wanted to bother them with that.
"Heat Sorcerers! Move across the camp and use your magic to warm all the spots around it!"
The heat Sorcerers began to move, and even without sunlight, they were able to improve things with the bonfires across the camp. Their magic was able to make those emit even more heat, after all.
In the end, the magic people didn't face many problems thanks to the cold… but when morning ca, and they were about to take the next step… they quickly realized that sothing else was happening… from Teria, they could see small waves of water coming toward them… it wouldn't work to even damage their walls, but knew that Rain was annoyingly cunning and his plans weren't that simple.
"Use your magic to evaporate the water!"
"Make the ground absorb the water and clean the terrain! Don't let the enemies dictate the flow of the battle."
The magic people had their cards, too… the heat sorcerers were able to evaporate the water, and the quicksand executioner made the ground absorb it. They also could use mud golems, and they were faster than the ordinary ones. However, they didn't want to go and attack so soon. For them to be effective, the golem masters had to be nearby.
Still, soon, the magic people realized that sothing was off… the dark clouds above them only looked more ominous, and the water kept coming… it didn't take long for them to realize it.
"It is sea water… where the hell is this sea water coming from?"
Before they could get their answers, it started to snow again, and this ti, their attacks couldn't disperse the clouds all that much… all because all the water that they evaporated increased the water on the clouds… At the sa ti, the temperature began to drop, and the water began to freeze before it could evaporate or be absorbed… as if that wasn't enough, the ice level began to increase.
The magic people could tell that the sea folk were in the city, but they shouldn't be able to control all that water from such a distance… sothing was off… they only realized what was wrong when the ice was already one ter tall and thick… while they were busy dispelling the clouds at night, Rain made so walls in the area, and he was slowly increasing them… walls of earth magic.
"If you look too much in the distance, you will fail to see things up close," Rain said.
"We can send more water, you know?" Seadir asked. "Although that will probably damage the city." Your journey continues on empire
"And that will increase my workload before returning," Rain said. "We don't want that, and we don't want to weaken the magic people too much since I have the feeling that whoever is controlling things behind the scenes wants to weaken us all."
"For what purpose?" Seadir asked.
"The enemies are wary of ; they don't understand my abilities further, but I would bet that they are watching this," Rain explained. "If their goal is to get stronger, then wiping out a weakened country after a war would be easier."
