Invicinble Colorless Butler-Chapter 273 9
The ringing of the bell continued to echo in the sky. The sound came from the large tower in the center of Oriana city. The bell is usually rung in certain circumstances, one of which is when the city is in a dangerous situation. It was to warn the residents and make them more alert upon hearing it. They had to go to a temporary shelter if the danger got out of control.
The customers in the restaurant were dumbfounded after seeing the scene before their eyes. They still didn't understand why a horde of magical beasts suddenly appeared in Oriana city. The atmosphere in the place seemed to freeze until someone spoke and broke the silence.
"What's that? Why are those monsters attacking Oriana city? Shouldn't the royal mages shoot down the beasts when they detected the monsters entering the Aurelia Kingdom's territory?" The one who spoke was a golden-haired boy. Although he looks arrogant, he is the son of a noble and quite understands the security system in the Aurelia Kingdom.
Everyone in the restaurant was silent and didn't know how to respond. It was also their first time experiencing it because the situation in Oriana city before was very peaceful. Not long after, the people in the restaurant regained their senses and screamed frantically after realizing the dangerous situation in front of them.
"What's that!"
"What is going on!?"
"Why are monsters coming to our city!?"
"Young master, what should we do!?" One of the minions of the golden-haired boy asked anxiously. Even though the monsters were still far away, the number that covered the sky made them feel scared.
(Damn! I was just about to have lunch at this restaurant, and suddenly a monster came attacking this city!? Why am I so unlucky today!)
The golden-haired boy clicked his tongue. The only thing on his mind right now was to return to the castle and be reunited with his family.
"We must leave here immediately and return to the castle!" The golden-haired boy canceled his intention to have lunch at that restaurant and hurriedly left the place with his minions. He had even forgotten about Ziel and Kalya, who were still sitting quietly at their table.
The other customers and the waiter left the restaurant and went to the temporary shelter provided for emergencies. The other customers and waiters also left the restaurant and went to the temporary shelter provided for emergencies. In that place, only Ziel and Kalya were left. They looked unperturbed when they saw a horde of magical beasts approaching Oriana city.
"What exactly happened, Ziel? Why did the hordes of magical beasts suddenly appear and attack Oriana city? Was it related to the Five Kingdoms Conference?" Kalya asked. She was sure that Ziel knew the cause of those monsters appearing in Oriana city after remembering his reaction.
Ziel shook his head when he heard Kalya's question. Then he stood up from his seat and looked up at the sky from the window.
"That horde of magical beasts didn't come to Oriana city because the Five Kingdoms Conference and those monsters shouldn't have any plans to invade this territory." Ziel closed his eyes and expanded his divine sense. Its initial range was only as large as Oriana city. Then it kept spreading at a frightening speed until it exceeded the territory of the Aurelia Kingdom.
Kalya was confused by Ziel's answer, but she decided not to ask any further for now after seeing Ziel closing his eyes. She knew Ziel was checking something and didn't want to disturb his concentration.
Ziel wanted to confirm what he had vaguely felt before giving Kalya a definite answer. But for sure, the magical beast horde doesn't look like they're planning to attack Oriana city. The monsters seemed to be running away from something. Although the creature was still very far away, the magical beast horde had strong instincts and fled before the creature came. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎
After checking it again, Ziel finally discovered what creature scared the monsters, so they fled to Oriana city. Then Ziel opened his eyes and looked at Kalya, standing next to him.
"That horde of magical beasts is from the border between the Aurelia and Neigal Kingdom. Those monsters appeared here because they were running away from something." Ziel told Kalya the results of his investigation because he knew that Kalya was waiting for an explanation from him.
"Escape from something? What kind of creature could make a horde of high-level magical beasts flee to this place?" Kalya was shocked after hearing Ziel's words. She felt the monsters were quite strong. Kalya saw some familiar monsters mixed among the magical beast horde. Those monsters were wyvern, ferocious bird, and poison dragonfly.
Kalya could understand that it was one or two monsters running away. But the hordes of magical beasts in the sky numbered at least in the thousands, and Ziel said they were running away from something. Kalya searched in her memory for a creature that could make thousands of magical beasts run away in fear.
"Dragon. I don't know for sure where it came from. But I suspect the monster came from the Earth Dragon Desert on the borders of the Rubelia Kingdom and might be heading to this Kingdom." Ziel narrowed his eyes and looked far away in the direction the Rubelia Kingdom was in. He suddenly remembered something in his past before he reincarnated. Ziel was also thinking about Azalia, who was currently in the Rubelia Kingdom picking up the world altar fragments.
(Has she got it? If so, she will look for me to retrieve the last two fragments. There is still no response from the magic I instilled in her. It means that she is not in a dangerous situation)
Ziel thought about Azalia's current situation. Even though he doesn't have a special relationship with Azalia, Ziel already considers her a friend, and they've bonded for a long time. Especially after remembering their farewell in the Arcuz Grand Academy headmaster's office, Ziel couldn't ignore her anymore.
Be it their meeting while fighting over a book or the cursed seal implanted by Azael on him, which currently has many cracks and makes some of his emotions start to leak. Ziel thought all of those events were related to Azalia. He felt his current situation was fixed since he got Azael's curse. His life at this time seemed to have been arranged according to someone's wishes. It made him very uncomfortable.
"What happened, Ziel? Are you okay?" Kalya asked worriedly after seeing the change on Ziel's face. She was susceptible to Ziel's fluctuating emotions. Even though it was faint, Kalya was able to feel it.
"Ah, I'm fine. I was thinking about something." Ziel smiled and shook his head. He didn't expect his expression to change, and Kalya realized that. Ziel got used to his poker face after being cursed by Azael. Because of that, he still wasn't used to controlling his emotions that gradually leaked out from the crack of the seal.
"You said that the magical beast horde came from the borders of the Rubelia Kingdom, didn't you? Then how could the mage of the Aurelia Kingdom not notice it until they approached Oriana city? Besides, do those monsters only pass through this city to escape the dragon and have no intention of invading?" Kalya was curious about what Ziel was thinking earlier, but if he didn't want to say it, then Kalya wouldn't investigate further. Besides, there was still something he didn't understand about the appearance of the monsters.
"When I checked it before, I saw the movement of the monsters seemed to be avoiding cities along their path, and they were flying so high that the mages couldn't detect them. I don't know why those monsters suddenly lowered their altitude and passed through Oriana city." Ziel stopped his explanation. He sees Kalya next to him and continues his speech.
"We don't have to think about whether they will attack or not. The beasts have made an appearance here and intend to continue flying over Oriana city. Some of those monsters would cause a riot while passing through this area. Therefore, someone had to exterminate all those magical beasts to prevent that from happening." Ziel put some gold coins on the table as payment for their lunch. Then he approached Kalya and held her hand gently.
Kalya didn't understand what Ziel was thinking. She still had a lot of questions in her mind, but she gladly took his hand. After that, they disappeared from the restaurant.
In a large tower hundreds of meters from the restaurant where Ziel and Kalya had lunch, the bells were still ringing and alerting people about the magical beast hordes. The space at the top of the tower suddenly blurred, and two people appeared in that place. They are Ziel and Kalya. The two of them had already returned to their original appearance.
"Why did you bring me to this place?" Kalya was confused after opening her eyes because the scene before her eyes had changed. She looked around and finally knew where she was after hearing the sound of a bell behind her. But Kalya was confused again about Ziel's purpose of bringing her there.
"Of course, we will exterminate the magical beast horde. If we leave it to the mages and soldiers of the Aurelia Kingdom, it will take a long time, and who knows how much damage it will do until they exterminate all the monsters. Besides, don't you want to test your current strength?" Ziel smiled at Kalya and then turned his eyes towards the hordes of monsters about to enter the Oriana city territory. He also saw the mages and soldiers of the Aurelia Kingdom and the other four kingdoms preparing to attack the monsters.
"Hehea�| I knew that you wouldn't take this city's damage seriously. The real reason you're doing this is to use the magical beast horde as a perfect target to test my combat power, right?" Kalya smiled coquettishly. She knew Ziel wouldn't think about other people unrelated to him, and Kalya didn't care about them either. Because of that, Kalya could easily guess the real purpose of Ziel taking her to the tower.
"Can you do it?" Ziel smiled and asked her back.
"Of course, I can!" Kalya said confidently.
"In that case, show me the results of your training so far and annihilate all those monsters in one hit." Ziel said seriously and pointed at the horde of monsters. He knew his request was too difficult, even if the five kings combined their powers. But after considering that the opponent Kalya might face in the future would be a continent guardian class creature, she should at least be able to do that.
"I will do it!" Kalya said with determination.
"Silphy!" Kalya summoned her contracted spirit, and a ball of light appeared from her forehead. The figure of a little fairy formed that light. Then Silphy turns into light particles and envelops Kalya's body.
The casual clothes Kalya wore earlier changed to emerald green armor with a silver color combination. A short skirt of the same color fluttered in the wind and exposed her smooth thighs. Kalya's current appearance looks gorgeous and will make any man go crazy after seeing her.
Ziel raised his eyebrows after seeing Kalya's transformation. He had witnessed the fusion of Kalya and Silpy several times and noticed that the armor that Kalya was currently wearing was slightly different.
(This might have something to do with the drastic increase in her strength)
Ziel quickly figured out the cause of the change. But since he didn't feel any harm from Kalya's appearance, Ziel didn't think much of it.?
Kalya stared at the horde of magical beasts in the sky. A giant spirit circle appeared behind her, and Kalya created a bow from her power. She drew the bowstring, and arrows were created from green light particles. Ziel smiled after seeing Kalya not using the power of the ring he gave her. It showed that Kalya wanted to do it using her power.
The spirit circle behind Kalya moved to the front. The size of the spirit circle keeps growing until it completely obscures her view. After Kalya, the spirit circle, and the horde of magical beasts lined up in a straight line, she shot her arrow.
[Spirit King Blaster]
The arrow that Kalya shot disappeared into the spirit circle in front of her. Then the spirit circle emitted a blinding light and shot a gigantic green laser beam at the magical beast horde. When the attack was released, the sky in Oriana city was dyed green.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!
The monsters in the sky roared after sensing the danger coming their way. The beasts intended to dodge the attack, but it was too late. The green laser beam shot out at a terrifying speed and distorted space along its trajectory.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The giant laser beams swallowed up the hordes of magical beasts, and they could only howl in pain. The attack continued without losing its destructive power and ripping apart the cloud. After that, the sky became empty as there was not a single creature left as far as the eye could see. The thousands of monsters vanished in one hit without leaving a trace.
