Chapter 762 - 762 Ten Master Level Mages as New Recruits
These people who seek strength above all else and even stayed here for a long time for it look excited. They finally heard something that they have never heard before. The fact that there are people who have reached a stage beyond master level.
As for me, well, I was lucky to met one. Timmy. And his two harem members who died and turned into ghosts were able to teach us some lessons before they disappearance. So we know more than most people.
Though if the Evil God was truly someone who have reached the stage beyond master level, and have some disciples to teach, the cult might have several mages beyond master level.
Though from the look of it, seems like they didn’t made the information public to the small fries. That’s why none of the cult members we fought so far were impossible to defeat.
Difficult to defeat? Yes they were. Some of them even injured some of our strongest members like Shelia. But it was still possible to defeat them. And that’s what happened to them.
If my guess is correct, then the real Archbishop, the one that Veronica and Celestine knew who could be talking to the Evil God directly, is already at that stage. That’s why he can just appoint someone to be an Archbishop and let them roam free.
But what if there’s a pope above him before the Evil God? The fight ahead seems to be harder and harder now.
Well, we just need to get stronger, find someone strong to help us and get them stronger as well, and defeat the cult before they get as strong as they were when they destroyed the worlds in my past life. Maybe before even I started participating in the war back then.
.....
Now that I think about it, we managed to fight decently at that time. I guess our side is pretty strong with Angela as the vanguard back then.
And now, we are much stronger already. But we realize that the cult could be hiding their full force even now.
Well, that’s why I want these master level mages to join us right now. They might have been here for a long time and even forget how to use magic. But they are still strong people. And they have good teamwork as well. Though from now on, they probably need to learn to fight against human being rather than monster.
“Yes. I met one, and killed him. He’s also an Aura Master. It was hard to kill him but I managed to do it in the end. And we managed to get two ghosts to teach us about magic so we can reach that stage one day. They were dead, yes. But they turned into ghosts so we can still chat for a while before they disappeared. So, do you want to learn magic from us and join us?” I ask them again if they’re going to join us or not.
“I’m in!”
After the leader shouted that he will join, the rest also agree to join. Seems like I was right to offer them the chance to get stronger.
“But you do know that you will risk your lives by joining the war, right? And the opponents have been increasing their magic for a long time. They could be stronger than you all. Well, not physically at least. So, do you still want to join?” I asked.
“Of course it’s natural to risk your life to get what you want! Even more if the world is at stake. There’s no way we would let them destroy the world. But is it true that they are really trying to destroy the world?” the leader asked. Still not convinced that someone actually trying to destroy the world.
“I’m the proof. I’ll tell you later. I have someone I need to introduce to you. Get yourself ready and then get out of this place to somewhere you can use magic. Shelia will come with you. I also have something I need to prepare so I take my leave first,” I said as I jumped on top of Ray.
Then I come to Shelia’s side to tell her to kill anyone who tried to escape before leaving.
It didn’t take long before I leave the magicless area and opened a portal to Albert’s location.
There’s no meeting with other countries today, but they are still doing it with their phones. I also checked the forum after I entered Albert’s place.
“Albert, ten master level mages who trained their bodies in the magicless area said that they’re willing to come after I beat them up. I’m going to bring them soon,” I said.
“...So you went to the magicless area, found ten master level mages, beat them up, and get them to join us? Do they truly want to join us?” Albert asked.
“Once I told them that there’s a stage beyond master level, they were so excited about it. They don’t even know about Aura user. I think they are not with the cult but I can’t be one hundred percent believe them. That’s why, as usual, I will bring them to you. I also need to get Angela and the others to come as well for safety reason,” I said.
“Alright. Bring them to the Colosseum in Monsters World. We might need to test them. If they truly seek strength, then Angela is the best example for them to see how strong our strength is. They need to see how strong we are first,” he said.
So while he’s getting ready and even use the forum in the phone to tell the others, I grabbed Angela and the others who wants to see the ten master level mages.
...In the end, everyone who was here before during the friendly match are here. Except for the monsters who think that there won’t be a fight.
“Whoa. This is Monsters World where summoners can go to?”
“Damn it! If only I didn’t try to increase my summoning level to master level, I could have gotten at least one extra familiar after eating that fruit!”
“Hahaha! Shame on you! I’m a tamer and I’m happy to know about this world. Also, didn’t your familiar died fifty years ago? You can still find one monster to make a contract with. Maybe a leader of a tribe like Roy’s. That way, it would be better than just getting five random monsters.”
I haven’t asked them, but it seems like there’s at least one summoner and one tamer. Well, isn’t that great?
“Oh, Harry! Is that you, Harry? My nephew?!”
Huh? One of the ten master level mages shouted excitedly at old man Henry.
“You’re... No way! Are you Great Aunt Halley?”
Wow. Old man Henry is related to one of them? And she’s his Great Aunt? Interesting.
“Great Aunt? Are you Harry’s son then? No wonder you look so similar,” the muscular woman asked.
“Yes. Harry is my father. The previous king of Varadis. And I’m the current king of Varadis, Henry.”
Who would have thought that this would be a reunion?
But at least we know that one of the ten is related to a royalty. It should be easier for us to convince them to join.
“Oh, a king. Maybe there’s someone here related to the king of Kalman? I’m not a royalty, but the king there was a good friend of mine. Though he died before I left,” a muscular old man asked.
“I’m sorry, but Kalman kingdom was destroyed in a war around eighty years ago. And it became my territory now. I’m the king of Tatrama, Albert. Nice to meet you,” Albert said.
“I see. My friends tried to bring peace to the kingdom. But other nobles wanted to fight instead and he ended up being poisoned. So I killed a lot of them before I started training. I guess it’s no wonder that the kingdom is destroyed.”
If he’s already a master level mage at that time, then I guess it’s normal.
Don’t bother with a friend of a powerful person. It’s as simple as that.
And the nobles of the destroyed kingdom didn’t know that rule. So they died in the end.
“Okay, is there anyone else related to a king or some important people in the past? You have been out for about one century. You must have missed a lot. Oh, Shirley. You’re not busy anymore?” I asked Shirley whom I haven’t met in a while.
“No. I took care of my job. And I’m here to test my strength with a master level mage since I missed the last match,” she said.
“Well... that’s for later. Is what I like to say. Those master level mages heard you and now they are interested in a fight. I guess we’ll fight first,” I said.
And so, a woman, one of the ten fought with Shirley. She is stronger than most master level mage. Even more with her physical strength.
But since she can’t use destructive magic because Shirley keep interrupting her, and she never learned about magic control, she ended up losing.
And that loss only make all ten people became more interested in joining. Especially seeing how an expert level mage defeating a master level mage. which should be impossible in their time.
Well, this make things easier. I guess they are just people who seek strength. Show them how strong we are, and they will join. Simple.
