After this idiot loses consciousness I step out of his shadow, Nix steps out of the shadow of a statue near the wall.
I look at the Demon with blue skin, white hair, two broken horns, and a scar that runs from cheek to neck, looks like it was made with so blade.
"You were right, he is very arrogant." (I)
"He's always been very cautious, but his arrogance makes him believe he's always the smartest person wherever he is." (Lilian)
"He's realized that I'm not stronger than he is, he's also realized the barriers we created yesterday, the unnatural strength of what servants should be, and the traps Rakan created in this office." (Lilian)
"I thought he'd leave seeing the level of security in this place." (I)
"He hasn't seen you for centuries and he has no idea of the people around him, he didn't even know if there was soone hiding with the sa strength he did." (I)
"He'd have to think the barriers have alarms at least." (Nix)
,m "Maybe he didn't notice the alarm on the barriers?" (I)
"He broke through the barrier without sounding the alarm, he realized and still managed to break in, his magical knowledge is very solid when it cos to these things." (Lilian)
"Perhaps his biggest mistake was not understanding that I was a spy from the start." (Lilian)
"It was my fifth job at the ti on behalf of the Empire, but it was the first one I had to infiltrate." (Lilian)
"As I was afraid of disguising myself or altering my personality too much, I continued to look like no one else knew and just tried to act more arrogant so it would be easier to keep the cover up." (Lilian)
"You said he was trapped, so how did he get loose?" (I)
"Soone from the Empire leaked information about Randel to an idiot." (Lilian)
"Well it doesn't matter, he ca after you, so you choose what to do with him." (I)
This ti I almost killed soone important to Lilian, not knowing that one of his students was among the people we captured when we left the holy land.
Spy work really is dangerous.
"I think we can kill him, but I know Lilith will definitely want to spend ti with him." (Lilian)
"He was always soone cruel and sadistic, he exploited those in need, killed often just for fun and liked to put on macabre shows for his own entertainnt." (Lilian)
"In other words, he's hopeless trash." (Nix)
"Exactly." (Lilian)
"Nix, take him to Lilith." (I)
"With pleasure." (Nix)
Nix picks up this garbage and steps into my shadow, so she'll quickly get to where Lilith is.
"With all this going on we haven't had much ti to talk." (I)
"Could you tell more about your family?" (I)
"It will be a pleasure, holy son." (Lilian)
"My first Student..." (Lilian)
----------
Late in the afternoon that day, I was in the room with an Elf who had arrived a few minutes ago in the city.
"Nice to et you again Joseph." (I)
"Glad to et you again, I have good news." (Joseph)
"Are the preparations over?" (I)
"Yes, all our warriors are gathered in the village, besides the Realms have already finished their preparations for the Monster Wave." (Joseph)
"How long does it take to get to the village?" (I)
"If walking, then 2 to 3 weeks." (Joseph)
"If flying, maybe 4 days depending on speed." (Joseph)
"But there will be a lot of attacks from air monsters, there is no place to hide in the sky, we can even be attacked by monsters on the ground using ranged attacks." (Joseph)
"That won't be a problem, we'll fly back then." (I)
"When can we leave?" (I)
"Within 2 days, I'm enjoying being here to get so supplies for the battle." (Joseph)
"Do you already know how long the Monster Wave will last?" (I)
"We have so information, we know it will last at least 3 days." (Joseph)
"Drops last 1 week." (I)
"..." (Joseph)
He was silent but his eyes were moving from side to side as if he was thinking about sothing.
Sigh
"Looks like we're going to need more healing potions." (Joseph)
"I thought there would be many." (I)
"The ingredients for this kind of potion are not to be found around here." (Joseph)
"Everything that grows in this forest is poisonous, we have many potions to cure different types of poisons, but to heal wounds it won't be enough, we have to buy those imported from other Kingdoms." (Joseph)
"So we're leaving in 2 days, that should be 9 enough since I'm expecting a few people." (I)
After talking to Joseph, I walk him to the door, this ti talking to him alone.
For the next few days, I just rested and thought, I was planning ways to fight during the Monster Wave we're going to cause.
----------
After a whole day has passed, during the night I realize that I am being watched while I am training my Martial Arts in the garden, I can feel 5 people.
"(Nix, we have so guests.)" (I)
"(I know, my spirits with shadow elents are around them, just one command and I can capture them all.)" (Nix)
"(Wait a little longer, I want to see what you an.)" (I)
I had every muscle in my body contracted as I moved slowly repeating the sa strange movents that others didn't realize the aning behind.
While I trained I left so gaps and blind spots for them to take advantage of, of course, this was just to attract them, my Aura was spreading around the surroundings while blending into the environnt so no one would notice.
The mont they attacked they would be captured or killed, but no matter how many tis I left an opening, they did nothing.
When I was confused as to why they were standing still, suddenly Lilian, Vanessa, and Horn 2 co out of my shadow.
The mont Lilian steps out of my shadow, all 5 hidden people are attacked at once.
2 ca from the right, 1 from above, and 2 from the front.
At the mont I was going to finish them all, Vanessa stops , then Lilian takes a step forward, she takes the person's hand on top with a rope made of my lines and throws the person behind her, at that mont two people are crushed by his companion while the 2 in front disappear were just illusions.
Then she coats her hands with the elent of wind and slashes the sword of the person attacking from the right, while her other hand twists at an awkward angle and stops at the neck of the person attacking from the left.
After taking care of these people Lilian turns to with a bow.
"Holy Son, I present to you my students, the 6 Horns of the Black Empire." (Lilian)
