"Don't drop your guard; we still didn't do anything in this mission," Jori said. "The progress of the fortress speed up in the last few days, so if the enemies might do something, it will be soon,"

Rain wondered if that was true… Jori had some good instincts sometimes, but Rain didn't feel alerting him yet. However, once night fell, and Rain began to check the area around, he soon saw numerous auras approaching from north, south, and west.

"Did my senses get dull since that fight boosted my confidence?" Rain thought. "I can't think of anything else..."

Rain didn't like that, but it seemed the only explanation… or maybe his senses were only good at alerting him from ambushes. While it wasn't a large number… Rain could see at least fifty enemies coming and ten times more monsters… they were the magic people that could brainwash others. It was the only explanation.

"The enemies are coming. Alert everyone for combat," Rain said while looking at his allies. "Their numbers are too high; we can't deal with them by ourselves."

"What? From where?" Jori asked while looking around and only seeing darkness.

It seemed that Jori had good instincts, but he trusted his eyes too much. In any case, the enemies were still two kilometers away, so it made sense that they couldn't be felt or seen yet.

Still, Reca quickly got up to alert the others in the fortress and in the camp while the other girls grabbed their weapons and tightened their formation.

"How can you see them, Rain?" Liss asked.

"It is a trick that I learned recently; either way, I don't have time to explain it," Rain said. "They are the guys that can brainwash others, so we can't look at them in the eyes… if they get too close, they will make you have a hard time controlling your bodies as well."

"That explains why your condition looked bad without being tired or injured… you should have explained that to us earlier," Terra said while showing an angry expression.

"Well, I didn't think that they would try this hard now, it was my blunder, and I will take full responsibility for it," Rain said. "Just hold down the fort while I get rid of those guys, and then I will help with the monsters."

Rain didn't say that, but there was a chance that those guys came because of him… he had become quite famous lately, and he played an important role in the recovery of Tristan. So, it would make sense that the enemy would try to get rid of him when they have the chance.

There was time to hold back, so Rain made up his mind to go all out from the very beginning. He couldn't help but wonder if the fact that he joined the mission with them was the cause of such unlucky events… It was pretty evident that something always happens when Rain joins them. Perhaps not trying to help them would keep them out of danger better than trying to help Jori's group.

Before long, the ten guards and some workers joined the group while showing difficult expressions. They couldn't see the enemies either, so they couldn't help but think that it was an exaggeration on Rain's part. It was their time to rest, and they had been stopped by a kid… it was only natural that they would feel pissed.

Still, Rain created a Fireball above them and soon fired in the direction of the first group of enemies. When the attack crossed five hundred meters, a wave of Fireballs emerged from the darkness and hit Rain's projectile. Flames and light illuminated the area, and soon everyone saw hundreds of monsters coming from that direction.

Everyone gulped when they saw that… more of them were coming from other directions. Still, that size alone already heavily outnumbered them.

"Fight as a group, don't do anything stupid, and we will win this," Rain declared.

The enemies stopped just before their silhouettes could be seen in the distance; they were also surprised that somehow the humans managed to identify them with such antecedence… Still, they didn't have time to waste; now that they had moved that many men and resources, they had to kill everyone and burn down the fortress once and for all.

After ten minutes, the enemies began to move. At that moment, Rain used the mana in his eyes and confirmed that the masters controlling the beasts were behind all of the groups. Two of them had fifteen, and one had twenty masters… they were smart enough to split their forces to avoid all of them being attacked at the same time…

"Fighting the monsters while they are being controlled will be too hard; they will just bombard us from a distance," Rain said. "I will make them become a mob."

Before anyone could say anything, Rain used Impulse… this time, he did it upward, and soon he disappeared like a shadow in the dark sky. Before he could lose altitude, he used wind magic under his feet, and then a blast of wind propelled him forward once more. He just had to do that three more times before he reached the enemies and began to fall… Still, he could see their eyes on him.

"It is useless, shitheads…" Rain said and then covered his arms with wind instead of Earth. "Neither of you did that to my father, but all of you will pay for the crimes of that bitch."
