Chapter 919: Leaving the Party
Chapter 919: Leaving the Party
The excitement keeps increasing instead of being dropped.
I thought that after they tried to make a trouble with me, no one can enjoy the party anymore. But I was wrong. Though it’s mainly because Shirley came here.
I guess it’s a good idea that I invited her here. Though that means the sons of the aristocrats were unable to do anything other than to stay still until the party is over or she left. Because it will be rude otherwise.
They are already rude enough by coming here and tried to flirt with Angela and Kayla. Coming here because someone wanted to cause trouble with me. So they can only be patient and unable to act rude to the Princess or someone she’s admired. Me.
Some of them were too nervous that they visited the toilet several times already. So embarrassing.
Anyway, instead of having the party’s excitement dropped, it increased now after they got to know me more. More and more people started to talk with me. They are mostly asking about some teaching from me. Even the teachers also asked for some guidance.
Well, it’s not a problem for me to teach anyone. I even taught respectable doctors. I have a lot of experience in teaching.
They came to know that I’m the leader of the most famous clan at the moment, Wolf’s Crown. And Kayla, Angela, Wendy, and even the Princess, Shirley, are all members of my clan.
Though maybe because of the previous incident caused by the Attention-seeker, none of them dared to ask me to join the clan.
Even if they want to, they can’t. They are too weak. Even the Attention-seeker whom everyone here used to thought to be respectable, is way too weak.
So far, from the conversation around me, I heard that some of them actually wanted to fight as well. But they are too weak. So I guess it’s good if I can somehow increase their confidence when they are talking with me.
Though of course I didn’t tell them to join the fight. They are free to choose their own way of life. And fighting is not the only way they can choose even if they want to help us destroying the cult. Just by becoming a farmer is good enough. Because food is important no matter what and when.
Some of them are farmers. Just like me before I awakened my elements. They helped with the farm with their families, and after realizing that they are not talented to be a mage, or they don’t have enough resource to improve, they chose to be farmers instead.
But that’s fine. That’s much better than causing everyone’s trouble out of jealousy and only desires to get everyone’s attention.
I’m talking about a certain Attention-seeker. The one who is begging the people he invited here to take him out of the party.
Obviously, the sons of aristocrats were unable to do that. So he has no choice but to stay in this restaurant until at least the Princess herself is gone. Unless he wants everyone’s impression of him to drop to the bottom. Though I think that already happened.
He has no friend now despite bringing a lot of them at first. He can only sit in the corner hoping that everyone forgets about him.
I talked a lot about many things. Mostly about air magic, the Black Slime, and about some things that I did to help other people to reach master level. Even the sons of aristocrats were interested in it.
"I can only tell you about what they taught you in university. Beyond that, you either have to research more about it yourself or gain our trust. After all, I have met a lot of members of the cult being undercover and pretend to be ordinary person. It will be bad if our methods of getting stronger will be discovered by them. Though they already have their own methods to reach master level. But their master level mages were mostly as strong as our expert level mages. That’s why our master level mages are much stronger than them. And we don’t dare to mindlessly teach our methods to everyone because, well, we don’t want the cult to grow stronger," I said when someone asked me to teach them everything.
I said that to motivate them to grow stronger and gain our trust as well. If they have the will, then they can grow stronger.
As for resources, I can give them as many as they want. I’m rich. And I have a lot of them. Especially in the Spirit Mountain. The place where we met the Spirit King.
They have been staying there for a long time. Various types of elemental spirits gathering there. It’s as if each elemental spirits lay eggs of magic stones of their own element there. And they have been stored there for a long time. So if I want, I can take them. I have the permission from the Spirit King.
Though cultivating there will still be much faster than consuming so many magic stones. I’ll just bring the people I trust there. While the others, I’ll give them magic stones.
As we talk more and more, even after it’s already past midnight, we’re still enjoying ourselves.
I never thought that I would enjoy myself in this reunion party. There are more people interested in improving themselves than I expected. From farmers to sons of aristocrats, they’re interested in what we taught them.
Though good time can’t last forever.
All of a sudden, I felt two vibrations on my body. My phone and Victoria’s phone were vibrating. Then I can tell that Kayla and the others’ phone vibrated as well.
It’s not a phone call. Just a text. So I can connect the phone to my mind with magic just like how we use magic items, and read the text in my mind.
It says that the cult made a movement. Or at least the movement is related to the cult somehow.
This is not the time to enjoy the party. I have to leave.
"Excuse me, but we have urgent matter to take care of. I had a good time tonight. Thank you for letting me came here uninvited. But we’re busy, so we have to take our leave," Shirley said.
Then Kayla, Angela, Wendy, and I left the restaurant together with Shirley. And when no one is looking, I opened a portal to Albert’s place.
This is urgent, so I don’t think that he’s sleeping right now.
"Albert, what’s wrong?" I asked Albert who is obviously had just wake up in the middle of his sleep.
"Oh, you must be tired from the party. But we have something urgent," he said.
"The party was so fun that we continued until just now. It’s much more interesting than I expected," I said.
"You really thought that way? Then it must be fun. Anyway, we heard the news that there are three places in Tatrama that is under attack. It says that it’s bandits, but since it’s three location at the same time, I doubt it. Then I got the news from other countries and they also have the same situation at the same time. This is too suspicious. So we thought that it must be related to the cult," Albert said.
"Together at the same time? If it’s all the way to the east, then it will be noon over there, right?" Shirley asked.
"Yes. If it’s organized attacks, it means that they are all already prepared to move right now at this time. Before we decide where to dispatch you guys, Roy, gather everyone in Consenza. Then let’s think about the situation together," Albert said.
And so, I opened a portal to Claudia’s location. She already texted me to open a portal to where she is. She’s prepared to receive us soon after she got the information it seems.
After that, I brought everyone whose country is being attacked. The ones who are not attacked, we just told them to increase their security just in case. And to prepare to contact us at any time.
Then, Claudia opened the meeting when she confirms that I have brought everyone here.
"As everyone knows already, there are several attacks happening at the same time. Five in Consenza, three in Tatrama, four in Arturo, and two in Varadis. There are also at least one attack in each countries whose representatives are here other than these four. It’s all happening at the same time," Claudia said.
"Is it the cult?" someone asked.
"Most likely. Also, these attacks will be troublesome for us," Claudia said.
"Are they stronger than expected?" I asked.
"No. Just some expert level mages in the army are enough to stop the attacks. But they all happen in the same time. It means that they planned it. What I meant to say is that they will realize that we have excellent long-distance communication device if they noticed that we’re not using portals to relay information. Whatever the case, after these multiple attacks, we can’t hide this thing anymore," Claudia said.
"Hmm? Isn’t it obvious that they know about it already? Because of the TV, you know?" I asked.
"Yes. But even with the TVs, only handful of people owns it in their homes. And all of them are sitting in this room. But with so many attacks stopped so quickly, they will figure that we have something more efficient than TVs. They must be testing how quick we can contact another party using these attacks. And maybe they already knows that we’re the one responsible in destroying their base in Monsters World. So they must have known that we have summoners who can open up portals," Claudia said.
Hmm... I don’t really understand it, but I think it’s bad.
Can someone translate it into something easier for me to understand?
