Chapter 481: It’s a Good Day... Not!
I slept well last night after finishing our mission. We captured the Professor and the labs. They are still under investigation, but Albert will tell anything important once he has interrogated the Professor.
As for the doctors in Varadis, they are also busy experinting on the few mohawks I captured and still sleeping. Other than for research, they want to see if they can cure them. If those artificial master level mages can be our allies, our power will increase greatly. Though I won’t put too much hope in it.
And since it looks like the mohawk won’t wake up anyti soon, I returned Veronica here last night. If they are in need of help, they can contact us by contacting Sonia, or destroyed a Blobby that they have to alert .
By the way, Sonia and Spot who were guarding Consenza, saw several suspicious people enter the country. So far, none of them were expert level mages. Because if they are indeed expert level mages, they should have realized that sothing is amiss even when Sonia is using invisibility, and Spot is using his camouflage.
Though the cult must be planning sothing. If there are too many expert level mages at once waiting at Consenza, the expert level mages from the cult will be suspicious.
Instead, since there’s an expert level mage in Consenza that Celestine trained. Just one girl whom got trained by Celestine. But that’s enough since with her detection skill, if she noticed soone detecting her presence, she can tell that they are expert level mages.
This way, she can report if there’s any mages who can detect her presence among the people coming to Consenza.
.....
I have slept well and feeling refreshed. Maybe because I’m extrely fit physically that I have recovered my stamina quickly. As for the others, they are still sleeping. Though since it’s we’re talking about, I just don’t want to leave the bed. And that’s why I return back to sleep again.
ntally, I’m not exhausted as well. I have long prepared about this. Though the sa can’t be said to the others. They didn’t exhaust their stamina and mana, but they are still too tired. And they need to participate in the tournant as well, so they need to recover to their best as soon as possible.
It will be one week until it’s ti for the tournant. I will transport the participant with portal tomorrow. It will be weird if they only made appearance on the day of the tournant.
Anyway, I was forced to be awake since down there, at the dining hall where breakfast is being prepared, a dog is trying to eat them all. She’s not a dog actually. A werewolf.
If I don’t stop her, all the food will be gone before the others awake.
“Enough eating, Shelia! The others won’t have food to eat!” I shouted at her.
“It’s fine! Lina said that she bought a lot of ingredients for today to celebrate yesterday’s mission,” Shelia said while munching on a fish dish.
“Oh, then it’s fine. I will eat so as well before the others wake up then,” I said before taking a seat as well.
Last night after returning from our mission, Lina didn’t prepare much seeing how tired everyone was. And being the only one excited about food seems wrong, so I also eat only a little last night. And by little, I an three portions of regular al for .
As for Shelia, Lina has prepared a whole table for Shelia alone last night. Though today, the food is more than last night.
“You can finish everything here. I don’t think the others will be able to eat so much after they wake up since they are too tired. I’ll make them so easy to digest food once they wake up. So, feel free to fill your stomach,” Lina said.
“Thank you, Lina! You’re the best!” Shelia praised her.
“Yeah. I have gone to a lot of restaurant, but your al taste much better,” I also didn’t forget to praise her. It’s the easiest thing we can do to her who loves to be complinted.
“If it’s not enough, you can tell . I will make you so more since we have a lot of ingredients,” Lina said with a smile.
Her reason to live is simply to be of serve to now. I just praised her a few tis when I first t her, and she becos like this now.
Now, another step to the cult’s destruction has been taken. The Professor. I feel so weights lifted from my shoulder. Feel like today is going to be a good day.
...Or not. I sensed Sonia appears beside . the only one who would contact this early in the morning is none other than the king, Albert.
“...What is it?” I asked Sonia.
“Albert wants you to bring the other kings and co to his location as soon as possible,” Sonia said.
“Have you told the other kings?” I asked again.
“Yes. They are all ready to go as soon as possible. Henry was a bit busy with the people you brought over, but he has so ti. Lynn and Claudia don’t have anything to do until the tournant opening ceremony. As for Harold, he’s always free. Also, please bring Celestine or Veronica with you. Both of them together also fine,” Sonia said.
I looked at where the two are sleeping, and see that they have already awake. I told Sonia to call those two and see if any one of them would co with . Both of them said that they are willing to co. So, after the two had a light breakfast, I will bring them with .
“I’ll leave now. Shelia, take care of everyone here.”
I told Shelia to protect everyone and I opened four portals at once to let the kings co here, and use the portal toward Albert’s location so they can go there directly.
All of us entered the portal to where Albert is as he greeted us.
“Welco. I’ve been waiting for you,” Albert said.
“It’s not that long since you contacted Sonia, right?” I asked.
“Yes. But I have been waiting since then.”
“So, what is this place?” Old man Henry asked.
“This is the place where the Professor is being detained. I have asked him many things for a whole night. That’s what I will report to you,” Albert said.
I can see dark circle under his eyes. He must be sleepy. I’ll use sleeping gas later on him after we finished our discussion so he can sleep well.
We brought Veronica and Celestine to the detained Professor. His eyes are covered, so he shouldn’t be able to see us.
“Is he the real Professor?” I asked the two.
“I think he is,” Veronica said.
“Who’s there!? How do you know ? We shouldn’t have any traitor at all!” the Professor shouted after hearing us talking.
We can get two things from that reaction. He is the real Professor, and the cult still don’t know that Veronica and Celestine are both traitors.
“He said he has erased his own na and let himself be called the Professor. I have asked him everything I could ask, so we don’t have any need of him anymore,” Albert said.
“So, can I dispose him right away?” I asked Albert with a hint of killing intent. Everyone in this place sensed my killing intent and are shaking.
“Not now. For now, our discussion cos first,” Albert said as he led us to another place.
It’s like a eting place used by the king for important matters. And it is indeed an important matter.
With Albert in the lead, he told us about everything important that he learned from the Professor.
“So of his words are lies, and I asked him mostly questions that he can only answer with yes or no, so I can guess the real answer thanks to my ability,” Albert said before he started telling us what he learned.
It’s true that they are aiming for the moon. In other words, they are aiming for the Monsters World. But from what the Professor told Albert, it seems like they are going there by using so sort of high-tech vehicle that is so fast and can reach the moon in days.
“What about portals? Does the Professor know about portals?” I asked.
“I don’t think so. I asked him if he knows about other ways to go to the moon, and he said that he doesn’t know any other ways. But the so-called Evil God might have kept it as secret. But at least at the mont, it’s impossible for them to have many people co to Monsters World at once,” Albert said.
That’s good. Even in Monsters World, there are other places that I avoided because of the danger. I learned those places from the monsters I know including Andro.
Albert continued telling us what we know, and it’s finally the last important thing to report.
“So, according to the Professor, children have higher chance to be artificially modified into master level mage,” Albert said.
“That shithead!” Celestine was angry when she heard that. But thanks to Lynn being here, she didn’t destroy anything.
“Wait, children? There are no children among the mohawks that we faced. Don’t tell -”
“That’s right. They are sending those children to Consenza.”
Albert said after hearing my guess. And Celestine looked as if her energy has all drained from her body.
“...It’s nearly impossible to capture them alive during war. And how many will be there?” I asked while holding back my anger.
“Fifty of them.”
Fifty of them. It’s impossible to capture them alive. Which an we... have to kill them. Unless we have other ways.
“Old man, quickly do more research on the mohawks I brought to you. If you find any way to stop them without killing them, tell us. Albert, have you asked how the Professor control them?” I asked Albert after giving an order to a king of another country.
“They are being brainwashed. But without using magic,” Albert said.
“Sigh... Old man. Ask Russell if they can alter the brainwashing on those artificial master level mages to make them follow our order instead of the Professor or anyone else. If we find a way to do it, we don’t have to fight those artificial master level mages. Though the battle will still be difficult, at least we could incapacitate their strongest assets,” I said to old man Henry again.
“I will tell him about it. Also, can you lend Victoria and Queen Marie to help us in the research? If they can do brainwashing using a tool they created, we might be able to create a tool to alter the brainwashing. Marie is a genius inventor, and with Victoria’s idea from her world, the two of them could be a better pair than Victoria and Roy,” Old man Henry said.
“I’ll allow it. Though I will ask Marie first,” Albert said.
As for Victoria, she already jumped from my shoulder to old man Henry’s shoulder.
“We don’t have much ti before the tournant, but let’s do our best!”
