After a long trip that lasted a month, we finally arrived at the destination place, it was Venon Fortress City, in fact, there are still a few hours to go.
We took the shortest way here through dangerous areas off the normal roads, because of that we had to fight so monsters, by fight I an the Horses fight.
These Shadow Horses we're using are very quiet, they're as smart as people, and they're brutal when they encounter enemies.
Unfortunately, every ti we encountered enemies we had to make a stop, that's why the Shadow Horses must eat at least a part of their victims, they eat what they killed.
Ragnar stayed out of battles knowing he shouldn't get stronger for the sa reasons I do, in fact, there are many in my group with the sa level of strength as , we're all trying to keep our strength stagnant as much as possible.
I left many in that death rule to fight, but they will avoid most of the combat and only fight floor bosses, they will also fight dungeon bosses.
I tried to get everything in order there so I could co here, I wish I had arrived sooner, but we had to resolve Diana's case.
Now that we can see so of the tallest buildings in the city in the distance, I can finally start solving the problem of preparations for planting the World Tree.
With 1 month of traveling eating, I was happy to see so beautiful and strange landscapes, but I missed seeing cities and the local people.
I once found an Adventurer and almost killed him, that for his face only had a big red eye, it was Loureno the Gray Elf guide who stopped , he said he was an Eye Demon, they are a variant race of Demons that feed from the mouths on the palms of their hands, they look similar to so monsters, but are very friendly Demons.
After Loureno's warning I stopped to talk to this Adventurer, he was looking for the rest of the group that broke up during combat against a monster, I helped him find the group while talking to him, it seems he had a racial skill that allows you to transmit your thoughts, so sort of one-way telepathy, but he has no Affinity with mind magic, his ability is sothing his entire race was born with and serves to aid in communication with other races.
Stopping to talk to him was weird and fun, I was able to et another race of Demons and I was surprised he had a girlfriend, a pretty one, by the way, she was another mber of his group, I tried not to think about how their relationship works.
After parting with them, we continued our journey here, I would like to be in less hurry during the trip, but I found that I can't avoid getting into trouble, so let's just finish everything we have to do on this continent and leave, restricting ourselves from this way is not going to be good for my ntal health.
"Ragnar, how long until you get to town?" (I)
"We should reach the city in another 3 hours, if it's at full speed I can get there sooner, but the Shadow Horses won't be able to keep up with ." (Ragnar)
"Mr. Zenos, we don't need to be in such a hurry, a representative of the council won't et us until 1 week from now." (Loureno)
"I know, but it's too hot today, I'd like a cold beer." (I)
"Master, you have heat resistance and you're not sweating." (Ragnar)
"Besides that, you also have an affinity for the ice elent, you can refresh yourself in a myriad of ways." (Ragnar)
"You don't understand, the heat doesn't bother anymore, but I still feel the temperature, besides drinking cold beer in the heat is the right thing to do, I have no other way to explain it..." (I)
"Ragnar..." (I)
"Yes, I noticed too..." (Ragnar)
"Don't do anything Mr. Loureno, I want to know who's first." (I)
"How did I let this happen..." (Loureno)
"It took a long ti to figure it out, besides it was your reaction that made redouble my vigilance, otherwise it would have taken even longer to notice." (Loureno)
"Don't worry." (I)
While talking to them I noticed that when we passed through a barrier, I noticed by the imbalance in nature and Ragnar must have noticed by his absurd Aura sense.
The barrier was still inactive, but I realized it took up a wide area, a spell of that size must be the work of a ritual sowhere, I don't even know what this barrier does until it's activated or I see the magic circle.
"Finally we found the Heretic, activate barrier!" (Man A)
Soon a sacred energy descends upon , I also feel the environnt beco clearer as it is saturated by the elent of light, all other elents have been expelled from this barrier.
"(I see, they want to weaken the enemy while increasing their own power.)" (I)
"(It must be a complex magic ritual with several layers of magic circles, but how did they manage to hide sothing that should have been huge?)" (I)
"Activate second barrier!" (man B)
I feel like the environnt itself is denying , I feel like a fish out of water, the spiritual energies and mana have been frozen in this place, all I have is the Ki energy still circulating through my body.
This wasn't caused by a simple barrier, I feel a familiar presence blocking out the environnt forcibly.
"Master, they are..." (Ragnar)
"I know..." (I)
"Now!" (Woman A)
"< Chains of Light >" (Woman A)
"< Light Sword Technique: Suppression >" (Man C)
"< Poison Purifying Light >" (Man A)
"< Seal of Light >" (Man B)
"< Sword of Light Technique: Blades of Light > 13" (Man D)
"< Sword of Light Technique: Evil Splitter >" (Man E)
"< Sword of Light Technique: Wave of Light > 4" (Man F)
Soon a flurry of attacks befalls , currents of light much stronger than Irina's grip my limbs as they pull in different directions.
Magic circles appear around my frozen body the light around to immobilize at the sa ti as a large sword of condensed light appears above causing great pressure to fall on my head, soon I feel as if gravity has increased by tens if tis or a mountain was on top of , even a crater ford in the ground around and it was getting bigger little by little.
In the sa second attacks were coming towards from all sides, blades of light rained down on from above, and a great sword of golden Light ca from the right.
I also saw 4 waves of light coming in front of while I was feeling the light burn my skin spreading a white spot that highlights my white skin, I could see it was so strange kind of poison.
During the attack I finally saw my attackers, they were all people wearing clothes with the symbol of the Church of Light, there were even Celestines among them like Vanessa.
"Church of Light..." (I)
