786 There are Three Main Islands
I need to investigate this place. But the security is much more tighter than any location I’ve been.
Not only there are mages, there are also monsters with good senses. So of them have good hearing with their big ears, and so have good sense of sll like beast-type monsters.
The good thing is that there’s no All-seeing Eye among the monsters. So I don’t think that they can see .
Thankfully, I can hide myself quite well already. I just need to be careful to not be seen. With Spot’s camouflage skill, it’s possible. As for sll and sound, I’ll do my best to cover them with Aura and air magic.
“There are more people here than in the previous city. More monsters as well. We might need to attack with full force,” I said.
“Be careful though. If you kill everyone all the ti, you will never know where the cult leader, the Evil God, is hiding. In fact, so people that you killed maybe so who knew the real location of the Evil God,” Victoria warned .
“I can’t help it. If they’re with the cult, I would try my best to kill them as soon as possible. I think so of them could be like Veronica, Celestine, and so other forr mbers of the cult who ended up joined us. They were being forced to do things they don’t want. But I killed them before I know that. And I think it will happen more often,” I said.
“Then just let Sunglasses lead everyone to fight. While you just need to clean up the rest. If it’s the others, I don’t think they despise the cult as much as you do. So when they’re told to capture as many prisoners as possible, they would do it,” Victoria said.
I think that’s a good idea. Maybe the reason that we haven’t found the Evil God at all was because I keep killing those who knew that information. Where the Evil God is.
.....
So, I just need to kill less people. I will just watch Sunglasses lead the others to victory while trying my best to make sure that there won’t be anyone escaping.
Just like before. But the purpose is different.
Previously, I did the sa. Sunglasses lead everyone, while I kil those trying to escape. But that was for Sunglasses to show his commanding ability. I didn’t interfere much so we can see how good Sunglasses is at leading.
But now, I need to do the sa. But it’s so that we can find the Evil God sooner.
But the thing I’m afraid of is the fact that even if the Evil God died, there will still be many loyal believers. And the cult won’t end that easily.
But at least if I killed the Evil God, the cult will slowly crumble from the inside. And the successor of the cult won’t be as powerful as before because they will be divided.
“I’ll hold back from killing as many people as possible. For now, let’s get in. The security is tight, but there are still so blindspots... Well, I don’t think we can use them,” I said after I used Divine Vision to check on the area.
“Why? If there are many blindspots, you can get in easily, right?” Victoria asked.
“Because they are traps. Those blindspots will lead those who enter to enter a prison. There are so people there. And the fact that they are not being restrained ans that the prison has sothing that block the usage of magic,” I said.
After watching the place, I can tell that the blindspots are purposely created so that intruder will enter from there. And once the intruders enter deep inside, they will fall to a pitfall trap that will lead them to the prison. Probably that place has similar effect as the prison. Magic is unusable there. So intrudes can’t fly.
If it’s , I can use Aura to not fall down. Either step in the air, or just stick my body to the wall or ceiling. But even then, there’s nowhere to go from that place.
It’s great that I have Divine Vision. But I wonder where those prisoners ca from? Who are they and why are they being imprisoned?
Maybe they are traitors of the cult. They got found out betraying the cult and got imprisoned. But they are still alive. So I guess the cult wanted to try and brainwash them so they won’t betray them anymore.
I told everything to Victoria and she was shocked to hear what I said.
“Then how do we get in?” she asked.
“Well, that’s the good part about having Divine Vision. I can see well when the guards are not paying attention. I just need to make sure that I go through a place that no one is looking at,” I said.
Unsurprisingly, the people here are doing labor like ordinary people. Farming, carpentry, and fishing, they do it without a care even though they could be master level mages.
Just how did the cult get so many loyal believers like that? Loyal enough to tell master level mages to go to the field and start farming?
Did the cult just say sothing like ‘Provide for yourself and other people, and you will be closer to the Evil God’ and they believed it? Oh wait. True God here. Not Evil God.
But what I need to do is not just blindly enter the city. I need to go to where I can learn sothing.
And the obvious place I need to go is the castle. Where the bird’s master is staying.
There are so other people there but I can’t see very well since it’s quite far. I need to make a round trip around the island first and prepare a route. Maybe several routes since just one won’t be enough.
Other than that, it’s also up to luck. We told the bird before to lie if asked. To tell its master that the bird was trying its best to escape and not because I freed the bird.
Whether the master believe the bird or not is unknown. But at the mont, it seems like they won’t send any reinforcent anyti soon to the destroyed city. Or maybe they have given up on that cit and don’t care about it at all. Which I doubt to be the case.
Whatever. I’ll just take a walk around the island and investigate.
Even if the cult send reinforcent to the destroyed city, I don’t think they will send their full force. Which an those who are currently in that place should be enough to stall for ti or maybe even to fend them off.
While I walk around the island, I also used my phone to keep sending report to the forum. And ask other people’s opinion about my plan.
[Prisoners? Where do they co from?]
[I think there will be a lot of battle in the sea]
[It shouldn’t be just an island, right? There might be other things there. Like a mountain, a forest, or sothing. Go check it first]
[We’ll keep close eyes on the city surrounded by the Magicless Area. You can take your ti to investigate. Don’t worry about us here. We will fight anyone who cos]
I guess I won’t be done in one day. But I guess that’s a good idea.
Also if there’s soone isolated from the others or being avoided, I can try to kidnap them and bring them away to be interrogated.
But we will still need to take a round trip around the island. It will be more annoying if there are other islands than this one.
And my guess is unfortunately correct.
After walking around the shore while making sure that no one sees , I got a text from old man Henry.
[I found a record about that old kingdom. There should be two other islands other than the main islands. I think you need to investigate those places as well]
So, there are three main islands for this old kingdom. I don’t know which island I’m in. But the three, if connected with lines, will form a triangle.
If I’m in the closest island to the continent, then the other islands are in northwest and northeast. So it’s like a reversed triangle on a map.
Unless you read the map upside down. Then, that’s a normal triangle.
North is always to the top of the map after all. I know that much.
“There are two other islands I need to investigate. But we’ll check this island first.”
Since there’s no one nearby, Spot beca slightly bigger so I can ride him. And we fly to the sky to see from above.
After a round trip, I conclude that this island is... just a normal island. With a castle and so villages nearby. There’s also a small volcano. I guess that’s why the land is fertile.
After that, I checked to the other two island. I was right that I’m at the southernmost island among the three.
The other two islands also similar. But instead of a castle, they have normal cities and so villages nearby.
The only place I haven’t checked is underwater. But I can’t do that or I will be discovered by so tad monsters.
Even when flying, I avoided trying to get the attention of other flying monsters. I need to be extra careful here.
For now, I’ll check the two cities first before checking the castle. But I’ll do that tomorrow. I’m hungry.
