Chapter 549: The Last Battle is Here

The battle at the fourth base.

We delayed the enemies much longer than we expected thanks to Iris’ performance. Even though she didn’t cast her magic too much in order to save mana, she did it well.

If she was taught magic control, she could be stronger than Angela. But I don’t have any intention of teaching her magic control. After all, once her son has been cured from the brainwashing, she doesn’t have any needs to stay with us. At least she’s not with the cult anymore.

As for other children whom possibly had their parents killed by us, well, we’ll just raise them in the orphanage. I think our base at Cassau will be renovated to be bigger to be able to contain so many children. I mean two hundred of them? That’s a lot.

Well, I’ll have Albert and the others to discuss it later after this war. Though most likely, children who can still remember their memories will be returned to where they were born. If they came from Tatrama, they will go to an orphanage in Tatrama. Possibly the orphanage in Cassau. And those from other country will be taken care of by the orphanage in that country. That’s why it won’t be two hundred new kids suddenly in our base. At least I hope that’s the case.

We have reduced the enemy numbers a lot in this base. From over a thousand in the start, we reduced it to about eight hundred. Not counting the children we captured, that is still a great achievement. Especially since we only had half of everyone in this fourth base.

In the next base, we will go all out and defeat the rest of the artificial master level mages. We have the power to do so.

.....

I look around the battlefield and see that some people on our side have started to get tired. And Iris herself has stopped casting magic as she doesn’t want to spend more mana. I guess this is it. We will stop our attack here and move to the last base.

“Alright, that’s enough! Retreat!” I gave the order to retreat and move to a safe place.

The strong ones, the expert level mages and the monsters, fought as the tired soldiers retreating. I also make sure that all the soldiers managed to escape before joining them to open a portal.

Once we are far enough and the artificial master level mages ignore us because we are not part of their mission, we are safe. Good thing these artificial master level mages were instructed to strictly obey the order of the higher ups. If not, we would have more people dying.

Finally, Celestine raised an Earth Wall to protect us from the enemies’ attack. I looked with my Divine Vision and see that the enemies have stopped attacking after the Earth Wall was raised. They are moving forward to the capital. But they don’t know that we still have another base left.

“Alright, we have done well. Good work, everyone. The next base is the last. Once you get there, go take a rest. We will have an all-out battle there,” I said as I opened a portal.

Everyone entered the portal. Although they are obviously exhausted, they have a smile on their face. That’s good. After all, they have done very well. And they must be thinking that the mission is a great success.

We have expected there to be more casualties. But it turns out that many of us were alive by the end of the battle in the fourth base. Although some lives were lost, we did better than expected.

As soon as we entered the fifth base, most of the soldiers from the fourth base instantly lay down. Whether it’s on the bed, the ground, or under a tree, everyone was resting in their own ways.

I’m also tired, but since I have the most stamina despite the fact that I fought the most, I need to share information with everyone else before I can take a rest. Obviously, I will sleep on Blobbybed.

I also made two other Blobbybed in an open area for anyone who wants to rest there. Sleeping there is the most comfortable after all. It helps recover your stamina faster. Not that there’s any other special effect. It’s just a comfortable bed after all.

I woke up a few hours later and see everyone is still relaxing. Well, the distance from the fourth base to here is far after all. With my estimation, they should be here after the final match of the tournament begins. The battle between Shelia and Angela.

The two who were teammates during the college tournament, became rival in this tournament. Although I’m predicting that Angela would win, Shirley is not someone to be underestimated.

After the two entered the college in the capital together, Shirley became someone who watched Angela the most. She must have a trick or two to compete against her. Though Angela would still win.

For most people in this continent, Angela will be the most famous mage to exist. But for the cult, I am the most famous. Or should I say infamous?

Although they don’t know yet about the existence of an Aura user, once the mission failed, they will know. At least the Archbishop will ask whoever responsible why they had lost despite the power they had.

...And then I will prepare for my assassination. Fuck.

Seems like the battle is still far from over. Just where are they hiding!?

If I could chase that forehead mole mohawk back then to the city they were dispatched from, and then follow the whoever he was talking to, I might be able to replace where their main base is. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.

We still don’t have a clue where they were hiding. But I hope once they became wary of the Aura user’s existence, they will lower their guard and we can replace their base. But that’s for later.

As we waited by doing anything we can to sharpen our senses before the battle in the last base, Sonia appears in front of me. Seems like we have new information.

“The final match has begun. Both Angela and Shirley left a message to you. They said that they will focus on their battle, so you need to focus on your battle. That’s all from the two finalists,” Sonia said.

“Tell them good luck. Well, they are in a battle already, so don’t. Anything else?” I asked.

“Yes. There is a battle in another place. Some people from the cult brought two artificial master level mages from another location. Thankfully, you left Graham over there. With his help, they killed all of the enemies. They started checking on the surrounding area of the capital to see if there are more enemies coming. Also, there are some suspicious movements in the capital. But Kayla and the others are there, so it should be fine,” Sonia said.

“Alright, now you can tell those people good luck. Once I’m done here, I will return immediately to the capital,” I said.

Sonia left to relay my message.

It’s good that I left Graham on his own. As expected, that was a good choice. And I’m glad that that I didn’t force Kayla to come here. She’s doing well over there.

One hour later, I received the news that Angela has won the tournament and became the strongest mage in the continent. There were also some disturbance in the capital, but Kayla has stopped it. There were some attacks as well, but since most of the civilians are in a safe place, no one died.

“Everyone! The final is over! But our battle will only begin soon! They are finally here! Once we’re done here, everyone in the capital will be safe!”

As soon as I received the news that Angela won, I can finally see the enemies. Their plan has gone wrong. They are too late in coming thanks to us delaying them. Although there were still some attacks in the capital, the others can take care of it.

I shouted to raise the morale. We have completed our mission to stall for time perfectly well. But if we want to achieve a hundred percent mark, we need to kill all of the mohawks. That’s why I need to raise the morale.

And so, the battle in the last base begun. Magic flying around and hit the enemies. The shooting squads are doing their best to gain the enemies’ attention, while the soldiers protect them. And the monsters will kill the enemies. It’s a perfect combination.

Thanks to this battle, the shooting squads that were just made, have improved their accuracy. They won’t just carelessly hit the monsters who are on our side.

Half of them were my students! Aren’t I amazing!? Though it was all mostly thanks to Sara who taught them. Not me. I disappeared before they could even hold their gun properly.

Well, let’s fight, shall we? I can’t just let my students gain the spotlight. I need to show them what their teacher can do.
