Chapter 750 Back Home
Previously, all the religious groups suddenly get attacked by a strong group led by demons. These not only kill almost all the nearby religious groups but heavily injure them. Fortunately, the attacker is stopped and retreats when the colossal monster appears.
Still, they also need to fight against the strong minions in the area. In the end, among the religious group, only Baltior\'s holy knights still somehow survive the calamity. Now, Baltior is surprised at the sudden appearance of many monster overlords.
He knows these monster overlords are not coming alone but summoned by someone. Noticing this, Baltior couldn\'t help but take a deep breath and had a cold sweat.
As one of the higher-ups of the Temple of God, he knows the strongest force in the world is not a kingdom or hidden organization. The strongest force in the world is the monster force. In fact, monsters occupy about 50% of the whole world.
The other 20% is occupied by mighty beasts and the other 30% by World Alliance nations and other forces. Fortunately, the monster is not united and rarely helps one monster overlord the others.
At most, they will only send monster hordes together. Now, Baltior knows there is someone or something that could summon monster overlords and probably make them united. Whatever it is, it will be terrible news to any religious group.
The religious organization is not just a group of faithful people that worship their God. They also have important missions besides spreading their God\'s teaching. One of them is to exterminate monsters from the world.
No one knows the real reason behind it. However, all Gods always have the same mission to kill and exterminate monsters from the world. It is as if a monster is God\'s number one enemy. The only exception is the Temple of Death.
Unlike other religious groups, the Temple of Death never has a saint as their spokesperson. The only way to communicate with their Lady of Death is through short fragmented visions from long prayer.
This is also why the Temple of Death never became a hardcore cult like any other religious group. Still, it didn\'t mean they couldn\'t do any of their jobs as a religious group. In fact, the Temple of God is one of the least restrictive groups among other religions.
This is also one of their reasons for getting supported by many kingdoms and even letting them stay integrated with their locals. Still, it didn\'t mean they could ignore the monster\'s problem.
The last fallen monster overlord is not targeting any other kingdoms but Holy Alliance which already shows their hostile intent towards religious groups.
"Sir, we need to hurry." said holy knights beside Baltior.
Waking up from his stupor, Baltior leads everyone from this place while glancing at the gathered monster overlords for one last time. He is sure there will be more chaos in this period. The power to summon a monster overlord is not something that could be underestimated.
Unbeknown to Angus and the others, Anna\'s previous all-out magic is more than just simple dance and gibberish words but a powerful summoning technique that could call dozens of monster overlords at once.
Unfortunately, the real perpetrator couldn\'t even see her own doing and was still sleeping peacefully beside Jayna\'s arm. Previously, Draven managed to teleport everyone safely into Angus\' manor training ground where the giant Porky usually stayed.
As soon as they appear from the massive shadow, they immediately attract everyone, including Angus\' father, who happens to be inside the capital city. During this time, King Leon could notice the exhausted appearance of Angus and the others.
The King immediately ordered them to rest and arranged a temporary place for the dwarves to settle the situation. During this time, Angus still gives a rough brief summary of the incident before going to sleep with his little family.
Although Angus\'s mind and stamina are already off the charts and could keep him awake for weeks, he is still exhausted from all the continuous high-intensity fights. For him, this current trip is more exhausting than their last trip from Nirvas.
The incoming dungeon sweeper horde is incomparable to the endless pursuit of dwarves, fighting colossal monsters, and Throne. Furthermore, he also experienced many ups and downs in this incident.
It took them a few days to recover and return to their daily activity. The only exception is Anna. After casting whatever magic she cast before, she falls asleep for a whole day and quickly gets tired.
She even almost falls asleep while eating her favorite dish. This somehow worries the young couple, but they find that Anna\'s condition is improving as the day passes and think of it as temporary exhaustion.
They didn\'t even know Anna\'s last magic until they got news from the returning Balrug a week later. Unlike Angus and the others, Balrug uses a space worm tunnel to escape Undermine Council. Unfortunately, the tunnel could only reach one location.
Therefore, Balrug spent about a week through many space worm tunnels. Even then, he could only arrive at another city near the Heart capital city.
Now, Angus is having an important talk with King Leon after submitting the incident report.
"So, you are saying there is another independent force in the kingdom that monitors all of us and has the privilege to exterminate the noble?!" asked Angus in surprise.
\'No wonder those shitty heads are behaving these days.\' thought Angus.
During the week of rest, Angus finds the nobles in the capital city somehow behave themself and rarely make trouble for the commoner citizens.
He also hears rumors about the Gonzalet noble family and their faction being destroyed. Such a significant movement is hard to miss, even if Angus ignores the noble circle.
"Yes. This force is also related to the place where you will be going next. So, did you think we should press charges on the dwarf community?" said King Leon.
\'Tch… This testing tone again.\' grumbled Angus inwardly.
"Well, I leave it to you. Although I didn\'t kill as much as a certain Warchief beastman, we still killed a lot of dwarves during the incident this time. Though most of them are self-defense." replied Angus.
"Hmmm… Well, I could press charge on them. I hear many other kingdoms and nations complain about this matter. There is even a call from the World Alliance meeting at the Roundel in the next few days." said King Leon with a smirk.
"Tch… Your Excellency, to be honest I don\'t care about this matter. So, stop trying to bring me into this shitty political stuff." retorted Angus.
*Whosh* Angus suddenly tilted his head and avoided getting punched by his father from the side.
"Insolent brat!! Hurry, apologize to His Majesty!!" rebuked Jacob from nearby.
"Hahaha… Don\'t worry about it, my friend. I don\'t mind Angus\' bluntness since he has the right to it." laughed King Leon with a smile.
Seeing King Leon\'s nonchalant attitude, Jacob couldn\'t help but be surprised. He knows the cold-hearted King in front of him only shows this side to a few people. He never expected his youngest son could actually make the stoic king trust Angus like this in such a short time.
"Still, I want to know your opinion on this matter, Baron Victory." said King Leon while emphasizing Angus\' title.
Knowing he couldn\'t escape from this conversation, Angus decided to say what was on his mind.
"Huft… To be honest, I want you to press charge on these dwarves. But, I know they are also victims of these malicious Dumrod."
"I also know those fallen dwarven and people could never return no matter how much the remuneration. I think it is better to leave it as it is." said Angus.
"Wise choice. I hope you don\'t fail my trust for the next few months." said King Leon cryptically.
Knowing King Leon\'s intent, Angus could only roll his eyes at this cunning fox. The whole thing is King Leon\'s setup to use him to get another force.
"Anyway, I hear you are busy smithing Jayna\'s sword." said King Leon to divert the topic.
"Urgh… This…" said Angus with a grimaced face.
"What\'s wrong? Did you miss any material or tools?" asked King Leon.
"No. All the material is complete. I also managed to get the latest dwarf smithing tools." said Angus.
"Then, what\'s wrong? Although you planned to do this alone, Jayna is still my precious daughter. If you need any help, just say it." said King Leon.
"Hmm… How to say it… The reason I want to use dwarf smithing tools is because they can operate under high temperatures. However, after my last calculation, I found the temperature is so high that any ordinary barrier or sealed rune will break under it."
"I don\'t think I could forge Jayna\'s sword in the city or even in the kingdom since it would definitely cause a disaster to the surrounding area." explained Angus.
