794 Checking the Smaller Islands

“Alright, I’ll leave you here. Good luck!”

It’s the last batch of agents that I brought to the castle island. There are three old men here who will infiltrate this island and hopefully, they can get something.

Unlike the other island with mostly weaker mages, this island has a lot of powerful mages. But that doesn’t mean that there are no weak mages at all. Especially in the villages outside the city.

They will enter those villages first and gain the villagers’ trust before they enter the city. At least that’s the plan.

This morning, I have sent several other old men and old women for the infiltration mission. Though I was quite surprised that they are still willing to be spies at their old age. But since the king of the kingdom they are serving put their trust on these old men and women, I guess I can trust them.

They are not just agents from Varadis. The closest kingdom to the islands. But they are also from other kingdoms as well. Because Varadis just didn’t have enough old men and women to send.

And these old people are willing to die for their country. Some of them even willing to do it happily.

“I thought that with my age, I won’t get into such mission ever again. I’m glad that I can at least have another mission before I die. I don’t mind if I ended up dying. But I will do my best to deliver a precise report of what you needed.”

That’s what these old people said. They are addicted to the thrill of infiltration mission.

.....

Though some kings asked them where they used to infiltrate. Of course those things are confidential.

I can guess that those old agents were sent to any one of the countries among the alliance. But now that we are cooperating together, they will do their best to work together to get result that we want.

Though it’s kind of funny how one old man from a Varadis recognized another old man from Arturo and talked about how they were best friends who tried to trick each other in but never worked. Because they were both spies. And they were on a mission in another Consenza. They got reunited here.

Seeing how they reacted like that, I guess their disguise worked perfectly, both of then never realize that the other party was an agent. Though it’s also somewhat hilarious to see that.

After bringing all the agents, I left on Spot’s back. I will search on the nearby islands.

But before that, I need to drop Spot and open a portal for his children to enter so they can enter the sea. There, they will dive deep and look for that huge monster to distract it from finding me when I fly above them.

Which mean that I have to fly on my own and I have to be really careful from being seen since I don’t have any camouflage skill anymore. And since Ray is busy teaching other horse monsters, I also can’t bring him.

Last night after I watched the circus with everyone, I went to Monsters World to see Ray’s progress. I could see that there are more horse monsters than before. Ray is doing well but he’s still busy. That’s why I won’t bring him here unless it’s necessary.

For now, just running in the air is enough.

Spot and his children dived into the water. And once they are deep enough, I think they will go to the huge monster’s location directly. As for me, I will go the other way.

Spot has a phone attached to his ear. He can use it and contact me if he’s in danger. And I can also contact him if my mission is over so we can go back home safely.

I checked the first island I see. There’s no one there. And no underground facilities as well. So I run to the next island.

There were some people there. They looked strong. So I leave them be after I secretly attached a Blobby on top of a tree.

Why are they here? Are they tamers for the monsters here? Unlike the first island I checked today, this island is bigger and has some monsters in it. Maybe the people there are the caretakers of those monsters.

I don’t think any of them are cloned monsters. They are varied and not just one type of monsters. So they must be tamed monsters. And I don’t think that they are a leader of their race. So I wonder why the cult is taming them?

Maybe because each monster has special abilities. As for what they are, I don’t know. And staying here for too long will end up with me getting discovered. So as soon as I planted a Blobby there, I moved to the next island.

There are so many islands nearby. There are even some in between the three main islands. And since some wind mages used that route to travel, there are even some resting areas there. For those who are tired from flying with their magic or with their ride. New chapters are published on Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

They even served water and food for monsters. There’s no inn at all, but I think it’s safe to even sleep outside in those islands. Everyone is loyal believers after all. And the monsters here are all probably tamed monsters.

After a few hours of moving, I think I have seen all of the smaller islands nearby. None of them seem important other than for herding monsters. There’s no sign of a lab or anything. But I have marked all the islands with people or monsters in it with Blobbies so we can go there anytime we want. I hope those Blobbies won’t get found.

Next is... should I check on Spot’s progress?

From what I see at the place where that huge monster emerged before, it seems pretty calm. And there’s no sign of a battle at all. But maybe it’s because they are fighting too deep in the sea. Or that they have traveled quite far.

Let’s contact Spot first.

Calling him while he’s underwater is stupid. We won’t be able to hear anything. So I just texted him a message. Good thing we taught monsters to read and write.

Soon a reply came from Spot.

[He’s too strong and fast. He brought us somewhere far from those islands and we are still fighting him underwater.]

Hmm? He’s big and fast. And he can carry Spot and his children to a far distance without even making a ripple on the sea?

Hmm... the sea level is not reducing. Its still the same. So I don’t think that there will be a tsunami here.

But if that thing wanted to kill Spot and the others, he shouldn’t do something like this. Maybe there’s something I’m missing. So I texted him again.

[Try talking to it. Pretend that you’re trying to get stronger to kill someone who tamed some of your children and let them die. Maybe that thing doesn’t want you to get noticed by the cult.]

If that’s the case, then it’s possible that the monster is not an enemy. I truly hope that’s the case.

If that monster is tamed, then previously, he didn’t need to surface and called that master level mage. The monster could just use telepathy to contact its master. But he didn’t do it.

[He doesn’t care. He just said that it has been boring since all the monsters in the sea have been tamed so he doesn’t have anyone to fight. And now that we appeared, he took us away so the tamers won’t notice us fighting. If they realized that we are fighting him, they would try to tame us. That’s why he brought us far away]

...Another monster who loves battle. I don’t think I can make him join us. He’s not like Andro who has terrible itch on his back.

[Try to find if he’s tamed or contracted to a summoner. Then, I will move him with a huge portal to Monsters World. Even if he can’t join us, he won’t be a problem to us if he’s in Monsters World]

While waiting, I asked Victoria to sense where the location of her clone which is attached to Spot and his children. Then I run over there.

It’s already far from the islands but we haven’t reached there yet. How far has that monster took them?

[He said that he’s not a contracted monster. He hates humans and only stayed there because of mutual goal]

Alright. I have heard enough. Anyone with mutual goal with the cult can’t be trusted. Even if I haven’t met the monster yet, whether the monster lied or not, he will just be a hindrance for us.

[Do you think that you can push him into a portal if I open it?]

[Nope. He’s too strong. And he’s still just playing around with us. It’s great that I can get into action. But it’s annoying fighting him. Let’s just escape first and think of how to handle him next time]

Spot has turned into quite a bit of strategist it seems. But he’s right. I think we should do it.

[Carry your children and fly to the sky. That way, he won’t be able to chase you. Contact me when you think that you’re far enough from the monster]

That’s the only thing we can do for now. Also, I think I will just exhaust myself if I have to open a huge portal for that monster to enter.

I guess I need to improve my summoning level to master level to make things easier for us.
