Chapter 384 - I'm The King Of (not) All Monsters
"What are you going to do now?" Sophie asked.
"I'll inform Albert and the other kings that I got the greatest farmers under me. Well, technically, they're Lina's. But I'm Lina's master. I'll rest for a while and then I will probably be called by Albert to meet him soon," I said.
I told the two to inform everyone else that they're going to meet the elves tomorrow, and I informed Sonia to tell the other kings.
With how big the land in Monsters World, this mean I can have unlimited supply of crops. Hopefully.
And just as expected, Sonia returns and telling me to meet them all. As for the location, let's do it here.
Since they said to meet them as soon as possible, that mean they are currently free and should be in a good place where no one else can see them. A place where it should be fine if I open the portals to.
There's an empty room that I prepared in our base for this occasion, so let's open the portal from there.
"Hey! Been a while. Since that day on top of the tree. Wait, that was just two days ago. Or was it three?" I greeted everyone.
The ones coming from the capital are Albert, Marie, and also Shirley and Angela as well. The two must be visiting Albert when Sonia visited.
From Arturo, it's Harold, Carmen, Fabio, Luna, and one other man. I remember him being the fake guard. He's Roberto. The one who got replaced by the cult and have to stay in hiding in Bernard's mansion.
From Varadis, it's old man Hendry and her expert level mage daughter, Julia. Now that I think about it, this is the first time for Roberto and Julia to come here.
From Consenza, it's Lynn, Claudia, and Celestine. And as soon as she arrives here, Celestine quickly leaves to meet the orphans.
"Tell us about the elves," Albert said.
"The current elves are weak and cowards. They don't have warriors in their rank. But their plant magic is amazing. It can help grow any kind of plants. Tomorrow, I will have them moved to the werewolves' settlement."
Then, I also explained to them about how the queen of the elves ended up becoming Lina's contracted monster. It was mainly because of Sunny. And we will also probably watch Sunny helps the elves in growing a forest near the werewolves' settlement.
"…you've got powerful allies with you. The military strength of the werewolves, and the farming skill of the elves," Albert said.
For the two newbies who don't know much about me, Roberto and Julia, they can't contain their shock after hearing what I did. I'm now as strong as a country. A small country.
"Wait until I got my next summon. I think I have a good candidate," I said.
"Yeah, good luck with that," Albert said.
"Wait, you're not curious about the candidate?"
"Nope. Just tell me after you got it," Albert said.
Well, it's also not confirmed that I will be able to get an archangel to be my contracted monster. I just know their whereabouts from Spot.
"So, I'm going to move the elves tomorrow. Anyone wants to meet them?"
The four kings raised their hands. I guess that's to be expected.
And for the two who are unused to this situation, they think that it was weird to see the four leaders of each country are raising their hands because of a commoner.
After that, everyone also follow suit. I guess I'll be taking everyone then.
I think it's fine. I doubt any of the werewolves or elves wanted to cause trouble with me.
After confirming everyone's agreement, they return back to their own home. Except for Angela and Shirley who chose to stay. And Luna and Carmen are staying as well.
As for Celestine, she's still with the orphans. I guess I'll take her with us tomorrow.
The next day, I had everyone wait in the werewolves' settlement. I have returned Shelia here yesterday to inform all the werewolves that the elves are coming. And they easily agreed to it.
"You're our king after all. And we promised that you will stay as the king until that evil cult is fully destroyed. As for me, even if you're no longer the king, I will still be your contracted monster," Shelia said.
"…that's nice. To have everyone loyal to you because you're their king. I'm a king myself, but my own son planned to steal the throne from me," old man Henry sighed.
"Seems like we need to learn a thing or two from the youngest king here," Harold said.
Old man had his kingdom nearly taken by the cult, while Harold's kingdom is already taken. It happens because they trust the wrong person. And mostly because of the cult's trickery.
As for me, I don't have any human calling me their king. They are all monster with different mindset than humans. And the two species, the werewolves and the elves, put their trust in someone at the top of the hierarchy.
The werewolves decided their king by strength. I was quite lucky to win against Grandpa Werewolf and make the werewolves promise to not fight for the title unless the cult is destroyed. And even if we failed to destroy the cult before I die, their lifespan is longer than human's. They can take care of themselves once I die. Shelia and Red are two reliable werewolves and can take care of their kind.
As for the elves, they believe in the High Elf, Tia. And they are all worshipping Sunny, who is Lina's monster. And I'm Lina's Master. Which mean they are loyal to me as long as Lina calls me her Master.
That's why I don't have to worry about being betrayed.
Oh, right! Spot's as well!
His children are taking care of the sea in human's world.
I'm truly the king of monsters! Well, not all monsters.
Then, I opened a portal to where the elves are. Lina is there with Sunny, Tia, and other elves.
They entered the portal and see the place that will be their home from now on.
"Elves, my name is Roy. I'm the Werewolf King even though I'm a human. This will be your home from now on. This is Shelia, some of you should have known her. She's my contracted monster and the strongest werewolf at the moment. And that one is Red. He's the representative of the werewolves since I'm busy in humans' world."
I introduced Tia to the two most important monsters first for her. I hope nothing bad will happen between the two races.
"Nice to meet everyone. I'm Elestias. A High Elf. We elves have no military strength other than our plant magic, so I hope we will get along well from now on," Tia said.
Having the Werewolves protecting them is what they want. I hope they will get along. I have suggested some things to Red so the two races can live together in peace.
"And then these people are my trusted comrades. Members of my clans, and kings of the four kingdoms in my world."
Then, I introduced Tia to Albert and other kings. And everyone other than Albert also haven't meet the werewolves as well, so I introduced them to the werewolves.
"Alright, can you really build a forest?" I asked Tia after everyone has introduced themselves.
"Yes. With the help of the Great Yellowsun, it should be done soon. The Great Yellowsun is still getting used to her new power, so it might take two days to finish," Tia said.
"Two days is still too fast! But that's great! Can you do it now?"
Tia nodded. And then, Red lead the way to where the elves will build a forest at. It's just two kilometers from where the Werewolves are.
I told him to create a gap between the two races because it's impossible for them to live in harmony right away. As for the border, I will ask Celestine to build a meeting place. Not just for the two races, but also for us in case we can't hold a meeting in humans' world.
Just outside of the werewolves' settlement, it was like a wasteland. There's nothing here.
Can the elves really build a forest in this place?
Tia and the other elves then discussed something. Then those elves started running around and spreading seeds all over the place.
"Master of Master, we need water. Is there a river or lake nearby?"
Tia asked me, but I don't know since I also never seen a river here. I asked Red instead.
"There's a huge oasis over there. And since we have good physical ability, it's no problem for us to go there every day for water," Red explained as he pointed where the lake is.
"Hmm… we might need to change our location then…" Tia said.
But I have a suggestion.
"Wait! Carmen, if we create a path from the lake, you can use your water magic to increase the amount of water, right? And it can be a river. And with Celestine and other earth mages, we can have the lake raised into a mountain. That way, you can have water coming down and you don't need to go far just to fetch water. Let's try that first," I suggested.
We're going to change the landscape here. Rather than destroying, we're building something. Isn't that amazing?
This mean the building of the forest will be delayed.. But no one have any problem with that, so it's fine.
