Yuanna, who was sitting with her chin propped up, furrowed her brows at Arthdal’s words. Confused, she asked, “Why?”
Instead of Arthdal, I answered, “Monsters are coming here soon.”
“How do you know that?”
“Because Crown Prince Arthdal has special eyes that can see the flow of mana.”
Yuanna, Diego, and Kayden’s eyes were focused on Arthdal.
“You haven’t said that before,” said Yuanna.
“This is confidential. Remember, the Hestia royal family has an ability that has been passed down from generation to generation, it’s called a magic eye. But we can’t use it without mana, so I borrowed Lady Margaret’s mana,” Arthdal replied bluntly.
“Borrow what?”
As if Kayden had heard an unexpected story, he looked at me with bunny eyes.
This time I explained kindly. “I can use my mana. It’s also possible for someone to use magic using my mana, so I was training to inject my mana into other people using the magic aid given by Crown Prince Arthdal.”
“It’s interesting to use mana in that way.”
Kayden was pondering over my words, and Yuanna looked at me in bewilderment.
“Oh…… now I understand why Crown Prince Arthdal suspected Young Lady Floné so much. But why, why only Young Lady Floné……?”
“I’m very curious about that, too.”
Yuanna, still propped up on her chin, stared intensely at my face as if searching for something.
Meanwhile, Diego asked Arthdal again, “So, why are the monsters coming here so soon?”
“Well, I don’t know for sure, but I guess it’s because of the pile of corpses of the monsters Banhwang killed.”
Arthdal answered with a smile and looked at Enoch. I was puzzled by what he said, so I tilted my head and opened my mouth.
“But didn’t it all burn?”
“The smell and debris may remain.”
In response to Arthdal’s answer, Yuanna asked this time. “So they’re really coming here?”
“There is a possibility. And either way, we have a way to go.”
In the end, Yuanna kept her mouth shut without saying anything to Enoch’s answer.
And so we decided to leave the cabin.
18. North Island and South Island
It’s also Kayden who can use my mana most efficiently. So, before I left the cabin, I decided to train with Kayden to inject my mana in various ways.
Kayden was standing in the vacant lot in front of the cabin, drawing a magic circle on the ground.
“Can’t you use magic without drawing magic circles?”
“Yeah, but when your mana is unstable, there’s nothing more certain than drawing the magic circle yourself.”
But there was no time to try it.
koong! koong!
A roar resounded from far away. Kayden and I stopped on the spot in shock.
“What……”
Eunji was wary of the direction of the forest and kept spitting out finger-sized flames.
At that moment, the cabin door opened and everyone came out with their luggage. They seem to have heard the roar as well.
After seeing Eunji, everyone looked over the quiet forest with ominous feelings.
“It didn’t sound like a tarantula monster.”
“I don’t think it was an anaconda either.”
“Then, was it a wolf monster?”
Kayden, Ruzef, and Yuanna spoke one after another. Then what was it? I tilted my head wondering.
Arthdal looked at me and asked, “Didn’t you say that the wolf monster’s habitat is not here? So it was not a wolf monster.”
Kayden answered, “No. Monsters are starting to leave their habitat. When I went to the place where the Saintess found the key, I encountered a wolf-type monster.”
Monsters are starting to leave their habitat is a definite fact. They too have started to evolve.
Kayden and I had a history of encountering an orangutan monster in a place where wolf-type monsters live.
“Or it could be an orangutan monster. If it is, that’s a big deal because it is fiercer than a wolf……”
Everyone shut their mouths with serious faces at Kayden’s murmur.
“But honestly, even if the monsters are coming, we don’t have to worry as long as Banhwang is with us, right?”
At Arthdal’s words, everyone looked at Enoch. He raised his head while putting the scabbard on his waist.
A smile spread across Arthdal’s mouth as he looked at the calm Enoch without any sign of agitation.
“Look at how calm you are. See? Even if the monsters flock in, Banhwang will go wild. What are you guys worried about? I mean, Banhwang is nicknamed ‘war demon’ not without reason.”
I did not agree with him. “You want to make Enoch go wild? He can also kill us when he finishes off monsters.”
“Hmm. I made a mistake.” Arthdal quickly admitted his mistake.
But unexpectedly, Kayden who was holding me added strength to Arthdal’s words. “If His Highness can control his power, that might be a good way to go. Margaret, you’re the one holding the Crown Prince’s leash, aren’t you?”
“Leash? Enoch is not a dog.”
“Judging by what you did last time, isn’t it similar?”
As the debate over Enoch continued, Enoch let out an annoyed sigh.
“……I know very well what everyone thinks of me. But even if I’m not in a seizure state, I can still wipe out the monsters. It will take time though. As long as you don’t get hurt and you don’t catch my eye, there’s no reason for me to go wild.”
“As expected of Enoch.”
“As expected of Banhwang.”
“As expected of the Crown Prince.”
Me, Arthdal, and Kayden in turn raised our thumbs toward Enoch. Enoch is undeniably the strongest in this world. Well, he is not the first male lead for no reason.
“We’d better get away quickly while His Highness wipes the monsters out.”
Yuanna, who was quietly listening to the conversation, opened her mouth. “Oh, I have a great idea, would you guys like to hear it? While serving as a saint, I often went out to subdue monsters, so I’m used to things like this.”
Serving as a saint? It was a bizarre expression considering that Yuanna hated her role as a saint.
“The monsters that come out in groups have some kind of pattern.”
Yuanna was confident when she said that. Was it because she knew what she was about to say was very important information?
“Usually there is a monster who is the leader of the group. If you identify and kill it first, the formation will collapse and you can easily deal with the rest of them.”
“Hmm, I am sure it could work. Though I’m not familiar with the habits of monsters, I’m used to human warfare.” Enoch nodded, adding that what Yuanna said made sense.
Arthdal, who was quietly listening to the conversation, also nodded in agreement. “I have commanded the monster subjugation corps before. I understand what the Saintess is trying to say.”
I said, “The problem is when monsters appear without a group. We have no choice but to defeat them individually.”
Yuanna nodded. “That would be the worst.”
I looked back at Ruzef for a moment. Ruzef who came out with the first aid kit in his arms had a confused look.
“I think it would be better for those who aren’t helping in the battle to take cover and help from the rear. Archbishop and I will do our best to heal those who are wounded. Saintess, you are fast-footed and good at climbing trees, so please monitor and report the situation.”
“Just leave it to me.”
Yuanna nodded with a bright smile. She even liked it, saying that she would get to try out her childhood skills–pickpocketing and climbing–after a long time.
“I’ll look into the situation and use my weapon if I have to.”
I took out my flare gun and filled it with bullets.
Even with flares and bombs, it is easy to be attacked by a group of monsters, so it would be perfect if I took refuge in a distant place and acted as a failsafe at the right time. Also, it would be easier to inject my mana that way.
As a result of controlling my mana without Arthdal knowing, I was able to inject my mana into someone even without physical contact.
Of course, in that case, the precision is low and the amount of mana scattered in the middle is quite large.
Will you fill the water tank with a hose, or will you fill the water tank by collecting water by hand?
“Yeah, there’s Eunji too, so don’t worry too much.”
Kayden smiled, saying he was relieved that I wouldn’t be directly involved in the battle.
Enoch took off his jacket and unbuttoned the cufflinks of his shirt, rolled up his sleeves, and glanced at us.
“Then I will lead the battle. Arthdal, you are in charge of analyzing the behavioral patterns of monsters.”
At Enoch’s words, Arthdal raised his thumbs. “Alright. Young Lady Floné, will you inject me with your mana? I will grasp the flow of mana and read the movements of the monsters.”
At Arthdal’s request, I grabbed his hand. Then, his blue eyes began to twinkle a bright green.
“Judging by the fast-moving speed and the large number, they seem to be wolf-type monsters.”
At Arthdal’s words, Enoch, Diego, and Kayden drew their swords in turn and took a stance.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Yuanna, who was sitting with her chin propped up, furrowed her brows at Arthdal’s words. Confused, she asked, “Why?”
Instead of Arthdal, I answered, “Monsters are coming here soon.”
“How do you know that?”
“Because Crown Prince Arthdal has special eyes that can see the flow of mana.”
