Chapter 503: There’s Nothing Important I Found Today
I stayed behind in the forest, while the others have returned. I’m not planning on sleeping tonight.
Since I can’t have Victoria with me, let’s get someone else. A ghost. At least until someone needs her.
I called Sonia and asked her about the situation in Lento.
“Sonia, how’s Harold and the others in Lento doing?” I asked.
“There were some expert level mages, but there’s no artificial master level mage at all. Carmen, Fabio, and Kron are enough to handle everything there. And now, they are marching toward Arturo after returning back to Bernard’s home with Spot,” Sonia said.
“What about the capital of Arturo? Have you asked Toni if there are any artificial master level mage there? Any mohawks?”
“When I told him that the cult has strong mages with mohawk hairstyle, he said that he has seen them. But after the fake king leaves the capital, there are no more mohawks in the capital. It was way before we got the report of Lenko city’s fall,” Sonia said.
.....
I guess that’s to be expected. They are from Arturo in the east. If they go directly to the west, Consenza, they will need to go through Lenko in the center. When they passing through, they make the city into their base before continuing their journey.
I guess they would arrive soon. Probably soon after the fake king arrives here.
“Is there anyone in Lenko?” I asked Sonia.
“Harold left his daughter, Jill, to take care of the city while Harold and the others march toward the capital. Before you ask, she’s doing well now and Harold believes that she won’t betray her family as she’s not influenced by the cult,” Sonia said.
I guess that takes care of the city in the center of this continent.
“What about Albert and the others? When will they send their soldiers to stop the cult?” I asked.
“All of them have been waiting in a city near the Imperial Capital. Once someone reported that the fake king will arrive soon, they will be informed and move to stop the rest of the cult members who are approaching the capital. I will inform you when that will happen,” Sonia said.
There will be too many expert level mages, or artificial master level mages that we will fight. I don’t think just the soldiers alone is enough to handle everything. And there’s also the tournament as well. Angela and the others will be busy.
I guess assassinating the enemies one by one is the right answer. Killing the enemies one by one, and when someone noticed something is odd, or any artificial master level mage noticed me looking at them, I will escape using portal. After all, if I run, I won’t be able to escape any wind mohawk. I mean mohawks with wind element magic. I would have died before I could escape.
But that will be difficult. This will be a war. Everyone will be fighting, and I will not have the leeway to sneak into their strongest mages.
Once the morning comes, I will return back to the capital to check if there’s any cult members left in the capital. I think we have killed a lot of them tonight.
I chatted with Sonia about the current situation more, and we stopped when Sonia is called and had to go.
“Someone contacting me. I’ll see you later,” Sonia said as she disappears.
I guess I’ll be alone from now on. At least I have spent a while chatting with her. Let’s patrol the forest seriously now.
There’s no one else coming to where we fought the giant is other than some people with similar yellow robes. That’s the uniform of the guards of Consenza. They will report to Lynn, but Kayla has told her everything in full detail herself.
I also looked at them to see if they have explosive devices in their mouth or not. And it’s good that none of them have it.
I heard from Claudia that there were no reports of anyone reaching expert level other than some mages that Celestine personally trained. So, if any of the soldier noticed my location from far, that means they are expert level mages.
I didn’t hide my presence, but none of them noticed me. I guess none of them are hiding their level.
I heard that in Varadis, Julia also trained some of the mages to reach expert level. Which mean the tournament will be more spectacular than I would expect. Still, I don’t think anyone would be able to defeat Angela. Unless the participants from Arturo are artificial master level mages.
But they won’t be any problem. The problem is those who are hiding. Maybe the fake king will be guarded by artificial master level mages instead. The kings and their bodyguard will be seated in a VIP room where they can watch the match in the best position. Which means Albert, Lynn, and old man Henry will be in a room with potentially artificial master level mages.
But with Mustache who has reached expert level guarding Albert, it should be fine. Veronica will also be a guard for Lynn. That’s what I heard from her as she doesn’t want to participate in the tournament. But isn’t this position much more dangerous?
But it’s good as well since she was a former member of the cult. If there’s anyone she recognizes from the fake king’s guard, she will inform Lynn.
The guards from the capital noticed the remains of our battle against the giant, but there’s no corpses there. They were suspicious that someone is hiding there. If they are someone I know, I would have talked to them telling them everything is fine. I’ll just leave them to Lynn and Claudia to take care later.
When the guards are checking near the location I’m hiding, I moved so I won’t be seen. It was easy to avoid them.
I keep doing so until morning when the gate is open. Though I didn’t walk through the door. I just use portal back to Lynn’s palace.
Seems like she’s already awake. And Kayla, Celestine, and Claudia are all here. Are they having a sleepover party?
“Hey, there are guards checking on the forest where we fought the giant. I think you need to tell them something,” I said to Lynn.
“...Don’t call me “Hey”. I am the empress, you know?” Lynn protested.
“We’ll tell the guards that we sent someone to take care of a dangerous monster in the forest. Since the kings from other countries will visit us, it’s normal to get dangerous monsters subjugated,” Claudia said, ignoring Lynn’s protest.
“Okay. That’s good. I’ll be taking a nap for now and patrol the capital,” I said as sat on the bed of the empress and then lie on it.
“Hey! Who told you that you can sleep here!?” Lynn complained.
“Since Victoria is not with me, I can’t have quality sleep on Blobbybed. I don’t have enough Blobbies to spare. And since you’re the empress, the quality of your bed should be good. At least it’s half as good as Blobbybed,” I said.
“Damn! I’m jealous of how good that bed sounds, but also angry at how a commoner like you can be so casual to me!” Lynn said angrily.
“Roy. I think you should just go. Albert’s substitute has been staying in the capital for a while. You can just sleep on his bed there,” Kayla said.
Oh, seems like Albert’s substitute is already here. I don’t know when he arrives. Maybe I swept a glance at him before, but since he’s not suspicious, I let him be.
How come someone who is impersonating a king not suspicious? I guess I just don’t think that he’s really a king since I can see through his disguise. But since he’s Albert’s subordinate, he should know me.
I’ll do as Kayla said and go to where Albert will stay once he arrives. He knows about me as expected. In fact, he was one of the agents who went for the training camp. I have forgotten all about it.
He told me that I shouldn’t sleep on the bed that will be used by the king, but I replied with the fact that I’m Albert’s best friend. There’s nothing he can do about it.
Until I need to transport Albert here, I will sleep here. That’s what I decided. The bed is much better than the one at the inn.
After I wake up, I start looking around the capital again. The good thing is that Sophie won’t be taking care of the children, as Jewel and Kayla took a break from taking request from the guild. So, I spent the day looking for any cult members while having a date with Sophie. Only until after lunch.
After that, I had a date with Kayla. She seems to be the one working the hardest. And I need to get her relaxed.
I bet she doesn’t only think about the tournament. She’s also thinking of the incoming cult members that I have to fight, while she’s in the tournament.
I can’t say to her to just leave everything to me. She will still continue thinking about it after all. So, at least I want her to be relaxed before the tournament.
Today, there’s no suspicious people I see. And I feel more relaxed than before after relaxing with Sophie, and Kayla after that. This might be the last day I can take it easy before the battle.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
