Chapter 135: Raiding the Mountain Monkey's Lair part 6

All of a sudden, the mana in the surroundings started behaving strangely. It was as if a strong force was trying to pull a dense amount of mana to a single location.

At the location where the mana is being gathered, Jude, Kimberly, and Cyril could be seen hovering mid-air with their respective hands raised above their heads while chanting something under their breaths.

Every time they chant, a spark would appear inside the mana storm, becoming bigger and bigger over time.

"Rush forward!" Kayn exclaimed loudly.

Gilbert and Charles nodded their heads in response.

Looking at the direction of Friedrich and Chastine's squad, the two squads also hasten their speed to get to the center quickly.

Whoosh!

Without notice, a strong heat wave was felt all throughout the second floor of the Mountain Monkey's Lair.

The second floor is considerably huge in size, so for the heat to cover the entire floor only means that a huge source of heat is nearby.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Turning their heads up, they could see a huge ball of flames hovering close to the ceiling of the cave.

The ball of flames would occasionally spew a tongue of flame to the ground nearby, evaporating a large portion of the floodwater in an instant.

Just that alone could explain just how hot the flame was.

"I didn't expect to be seeing such a beautiful sight today," Kayn said in a remark.

"," Natas muttered.

, a special type of fire element magic spell. The reason why it is special is that it's one of the few magic spells that doesn't have a set limit in strength and power. Depending on who the caster is, the could become very powerful. In addition to that, it can actually be conjured by multiple Mages as well.

What has appeared in front of everyone is a that's been conjured by three powerful Mages, as such just imagine how much mana has been infused into creating it.

The way the works is it's like an ammo of a gun or some sort. Mages would grab a handful of the flame out from the ball of flames and shoot it out like a bullet until it runs out of all mana infused into it.

"This is insane…" Gilbert is feeling amazed at the sight.

Charles can't help asking. "Would it really be safe for us to get close to that?"

"Just trust them," Kayn is confident that they would be safe as he could already imagine how this entire thing would develop. He'll just leave the explanation to Jude, Kimberly, and Cyril.

Whoosh!

Kayn and the others were suddenly struck by some sort of magic spell and started levitating mid-air.



"Get close to Jude!" Kayn flew straight in the direction of Jude as Gilbert and Charles closely followed behind.

Underneath, the Earth Gorillas continued to follow closely.

"Fly up!" Jude shouted as he stopped infusing mana to the and flew to the ceiling.

The others also quickly followed suit.

As soon as the infusion of mana stopped, the huge ball of flame started falling down to the ground.

"Eh?" Kayn felt slightly surprised. "Weren't you supposed to use its flames to shoot the Earth Gorillas?"

"No, we plan on making it into a bomb,"



"Smart,"

Shooting out flames would be tedious. So, in some cases, Mages would just throw or drop the entire and turn it into a bomb.

"Fly to the other side," Kayn motioned his hand as he changed direction to where they have run from.

Since the is going to explode like a bomb, it would be best to get as far away as possible from it.

The others didn't ask any questions and simply followed after Kayn.

In the next moment…

BOOOM!

A loud explosion that shock the entire save erupted, sending a powerful shockwave throughout the entire surrounding, and a bright red lightly covered shone through the cave for a few seconds.





Looking back, a huge dense amount of smoke is being emitted from a huge hole in the previous location of the whirlpools.

The floodwater slowly gets drained by the hole creating an annoying sizzling noise.

Whoosh!

Kayn and the others were suddenly pushed some meters away mid-air as the shockwave reached their location.

"Oh no!"

"Try to stabilize your footing!" Kayn exclaimed.

"I am trying!"

"How?!"

"I haven't done any flight traininggg!"

Because of how strong the shockwave was, they experienced trouble stabilizing themselves in mid-air. Even Jude, Kimberly, and Cyril who are veteran Mages and have spent countless hours training their flight magic spell couldn't balance themselves.

The only people that didn't experience any of that were Kayn, Friedrich, and Chastine.

"This is bad," Kayn muttered. If this continues, they'd fall to the ground really hard. He absolutely can't let that happen since they'd be falling from a high place.

"Let's quickly help them!" Friedrich dived down toward Kimberly.

"I'll take care of Cyril!" Chastine followed after.

"I guess I'll save Jude," Kayn also did the same.

The reason why they are saving the Mages first is simply that they are the ones providing the . If they don't save them, forget about saving the others, because they would have to worry about saving themselves first.

"Kayn? But how?" Jude felt surprised at seeing Kayn levitating finely.

"No time to explain!" Kayn grabbed Jude's waist from both sides and tilted it in a straight pose so that he can find his balance.

"Seriously?" Jude felt disbelief after finally being able to get his balance back.

"Although you're a Mage, you still have to work on your physical attributes sometimes," Kayn said in advice before diving down to save the others.

Since Jude is now safe, he doesn't have to worry about his anymore.

Whoosh!

Kayn saved Gilbert and set his balance straight just like what he did with Jude.

"Thank you," Gilbert appreciated the help.

"Although you were close to getting your balance, we don't have any time to spare,"

"I understand,"

"Can you go and save the others?"

"I should be able to,"

"Then go," Kayn pushed Gilbert to the side as he dives again in order to save Charles.

"Helppp!" Charles kept on shouting while twisting his body side to side.

"Stop moving!"

"How else am I supposed to find my balance,"

"Idiot…" Kayn shook his head.

He grabbed Charle's head to propel himself in a straight posture from a diving posture. After doing so, he slowly climbed down to the latter's waist and finally straightened it up in order to help Charles get his balance.

"You're walking in the path of becoming a swordsman yet you don't even know how to balance your body," Kayn doubts Charles' future in becoming a good swordsman.

"What does balance even have to do with becoming a swordsman?"

"Everything," Kayn rolled his eyes. Without wasting any more time, he kicked Charles to the side in order to propel himself to Roshan.

But before he could reach Roshan, Cedric bet him to it and he helped the latter find his balance.

Kayn gave a thumbs-up before looking for another person to help.

"It seems like everyone has found their balance," Kayn felt relief.

Not long after, everyone landed on the ground safely.

Looking around their surroundings, they didn't find a single Earth Gorilla left.

"It's clear!" Gilbert confirms as he, Natasha, and Jackson returned after going for a quick search on the crater.

"But…" Gilbert turns around and pointed to the Goblins not far away from them. "We got another problem to worry about,"

At the moment, the Goblins have come down from their huts and carried different weapons in their hands.

"What do we do now? It doesn't look like they intend on having a friendly conversation with us," Friedrich asked Kayn for advice.

"Just wait," Kayn gestures his hand. "We've made a wall to keep them safe from everything. So, if they return our kindness with bloodshed, then there's no way anything would have worked to get them to cooperate with us,"

Although the Goblins pointed their weapons in their direction, they don't seem to have any intention to move forward and approach them, at least not yet.

As they continued to observe, they noticed a group of Goblins suddenly separating from the main group and went to scout out the crater nearby them.

After some time, the group returns and informs a Goblin who seems to be their leader about their findings.

The Goblin leader nodded his head before turning his head to look in their direction. With a gesture of his hand, the rest of the Goblins lowered their weapons.

"See," Kayn stares at Friedrich with an 'I-told-you' look on his face.

"How would I know," Friedrich responded.

"That's the exact reason why you have to wait and see. You don't understand something yet you choose to believe the worst outcome, that's one of the main causes for war," Kayn shook his head. After saying that, he started approaching the Goblin Leader.

"How should I address you,"

"I am Gnarlak, the Chieftain of this small group of Goblins,"

"Nice to meet you Gnarlak, I am Kayn, the representative of this raiding party,"

"It's an honor to meet you Kayn and the rest of the brave warriors at the back," Gnarlak lowered his head to express. Raising his head again, he asks. "I won't beat around the bush. My people want to know if you mean harm to them or not. I believe that you don't, but they want to hear the answer from you and the other warriors,"

"Our intention in coming to this Mountain Monkey's Lair was only to kill the Mountain Monkeys, Earth Gorillas, and their boss. Although we didn't expect to be meeting some people from other races, it still doesn't change our goal. However, that is subject to changes depending on whether you are a foe or a friend,"

"We are of course a friend," Gnarlak immediately stated their position.

"I am afraid that your words won't be enough to prove that,"

"Please enlighten me on how you want us to prove that we can become your friends and possibly even allies,"

"Shall we go in and have a chat over there?" Kayn pointed at the hut where he had tied one of the Goblins inside.

"Of course," Gnarlak nodded his head.

With that being said, Kayn and Gnarlak both quickly went up to the hut.
