Chapter 542
Chapter 542: The Biggest Child Abductor
With the fake village, there are five bases before the enemy can reach the capital. Though as for those coming from another direction, or those who have passed us previously, there’s nothing we can do about them other than letting the others to take care of them.
I didn’t hear any report about anyone entering the capital today. I guess they really camped outside the capital until the final.
I thought it would be great if Sara and Celestine who went to look for places where we could build our bases with Spot, somehow caught up with the previously escaped artificial master level wind mages. But even if they flew to the same direction, those mohawks are still faster. Or they are good in hiding. Or maybe they changed direction. I don’t know.
Although our last base should be close to the capital, we didn’t notice anything strange. Even after I got there and look around the place with my Divine Vision, I didn’t see any mohawks in hiding. That’s why I returned back to the fake village.
I opened a portal to Shelia’s location, and get Elsie back to the capital to Lina’s side. She can check on the enemies there.
“Only four of us here now. What do we do?” Victoria asked.
“Wait. It won’t be long until the enemy arrives,” I said.
.....
We have destroyed the buildings in the fake village so they won’t be able to use the buildings to protect and hide themselves.
The reason only four of us here is because of our stamina. Even among the werewolves and the vampires, Shelia and Arin’s stamina is better than the others. Though for Arin, she can just drink blood to restore her stamina.
As for me, it’s because we can’t just leave everything to the monsters. This is a war that humans started, so a human must be involved on our side.
And the rest of the people and monsters in the second base, third base, and so on, they will be able to rest enough while we stall for the enemies. Once we used portal to go to the next base, those who were standing by the base will know that their location will be attacked next.
Actually, the bases won’t be attacked. In fact, we’re the one attacking them when they are peacefully marching toward the capital. Though because we know their intentions, we have to stop them at all cost. Or at least delay them as long as possible while capturing all the children.
“What about Graham? Is he doing well?” Shelia asked.
“There were no enemies yet at the capital. He will be fine. We’re the one who needs to fight the whole time,” I said.
“I have no problem with that. I want to fight as many powerful enemies as possible. I really enjoy these last few days,” Shelia replied. As expected of a race that loves battle.
“Good for you. But please be patient and follow my order. Although we will be fighting here, this won’t be the place where our final fight will be. And the fact that we still don’t know where the cult’s main base is, means that everything is still far from over,” I said.
Even though my status as an Aura user has been exposed, we still don’t know if the Evil God himself will come out to kill me or not. It might still be a while until we can destroy the cult completely.
As we were chatting, I finally see people coming. They uniformly have mohawk. And the numbers are around one thousand.
Do they want to clean the Consenza Empire completely? A thousand artificial master level mages!? To kill two kings and an empress? They really send out a lot of them.
Oh, the white mohawk with forehead mole is with them. Has he reported about my existence?
Hmm... but the number of children with mohawks are about two hundred of them. Though it will be very hard to capture them all alive.
One thousand against three. The slime doesn’t count because she’s one with me.
“Well, there are about a thousand artificial master level mages. Our goal is to reduce their number as much as possible and capture the children. With their number, it’s nearly impossible for us to delay them for more than a few seconds. But let’s try stopping them for at least one minute so we can get as much information about them as possible. Arin, you will stay with me all the time. This way, once I opened a portal, I can bring you with me. As for Shelia, you will be summoned after Arin and I leave. Understand?”
“Understood,” Arin replied.
Shelia just nodded in agreement. Is she smiling in this moment? What a battle-loving freak. At least she understands my order.

“Shelia, you can go all out against the adult mohawks. Arin, how many blood bag do you have?”
“I have two bags filled with your blood,” Arin replied.
“I don’t think that’s enough. Here, you can drink my blood directly now. If you have the chance, drink some more of my blood during the battle. But you can only do it twice at most today,” I said to Arin while giving her my hand which she bites.
After thinking that’s enough, I stopped her. I might have lose some blood now, but I’m still healthy. Though I have fatigue, I can rest later. I just need to delay them for just a few minutes. After that, we will escape.
When the enemies getting closer, Shelia makes her move first. She transformed into her powerful werewolf form, and started fighting. But there are too many mohawks, so I don’t think she could easily defeat even just one of them.
As for me, I’m still waiting until I’m close to where the children are. Good thing they are near other children.
With Arin protecting me, I covered my ears with earplugs, and run toward the center of the children. Right in front of the children who wanted to attack me, I activated the Noise Bomb. And all the children were paralyzed with the noise and the hypnosis effect.
The adult artificial master level mages were confused. But as long as they are not attacking me, I don’t need to care about them.
With Arin protecting me, I used Victoria and turned her into a long pole for me to sweep all the children into a portal. It might hurts, but they won’t die. I opened the portal to Varadis, and pushed all the children within my range to the portal. Although there were some adults nearby, I made sure that they won’t get caught.
If Marie had the time to make a prison with the Noise that can affect adult as well, that would be perfect. Unfortunately, we don’t have time. And we need to capture all the children so we can go all out against the cult. If only there were no children with them...
The effect of the Noise Bomb stopped when I opened the portal. And when I close the portal, the children slowly regained their senses and judged me to be a threatening existence. At the same time, Arin hugged me from behind and bites my neck. Did she already used that much blood already?
This time, I’m the one protecting her for a while as I tried to escape from being surrounded. But when I look carefully, I feel like I have a chance to open the portal again and grab some more children before leaving.
When I see Shelia is still fighting wholeheartedly and full of spirits, I started thinking of opening another portal.
When I opened the portal, the children got affected again. Arin has stopped drinking my blood, and she understands my intention as she protected me again.
Previously, I have captured about thirty children in one go. That’s a lot. But that’s because they were unprepared, and they were standing so close to each other. But now that they are spread apart, I can only get twelve of them.
After getting those children, I closed the portal again. Now, we only need to delay them.
Arin and I then run toward where Shelia is, and the three of us will fight together. This will increase our chance of survival.
Because I used portal, which is an unknown magic, the artificial master level mages became wary of me. But that’s good to stop them for a while. And I can just fly in the sky since only the one who reported about me being an Aura user can fly.
Now that I’m attacking them from the sky, I feel like we have a chance to win. Good thing the previous wave, they sent all the artificial master level wind mages to attack.
But they are still strong. Their magic attack is very fast as well. If I’m not careful, they can kill us with just one hit.
Thirty minutes after I activated the Noise Bomb the first time, I used the Noise Bomb again and captured some more of the children. But at the same time I closed the portal to Varadis, I opened another portal to the second base and jumped in together with Arin. After moving to the second base, I summoned Shelia who has started to get exhausted.
The result was far better than expected. I managed to capture a total of sixty-three children. Maybe in this second base or the third base, we can capture all the children.
...And I will be known as the biggest child abductor of all time. By a single person. not a group. If it’s a group, the biggest child abductor is the cult after all.
