Oh, I can see a small mountain is moving here. I know that it’s a giant monster. Or maybe several. Though they are still smaller than Andro alone.

They are still too far for me to see clearly with my Divine Vision. But they are huge. However, I believe that I don’t have to fight them. At least not now.

"That’s a huge monster," Red said as he can also see the huge mountain moving over here.

"It is. Do you have any plan?" I asked.

"Even if I do, it will just be Shelia or some other monsters that will fight it alone or in a group. Is there any other giant monster?" Red asked.

"It seems so. From what I can tell, there are three other giant monsters walking from other directions. And I can’t tell if they have more behind them," I said.

"I see. It seems like whether I can be a good strategist or not is useless if the monsters here fight however they want," Red said.

That’s right. Well, not that it matters. It also means that my monsters are just too powerful that there’s no need to use any strategy. But I won’t say anything to Red. Because he might even think that it’s just another challenge for him to get the monsters to obey his command.

At least not now. Because I’m still sure that we can defeat the enemies without using any plan. And my monsters are smart enough to fight and to retreat whenever necessary. They will retreat when the fight is not in their favor. But they will fight back again as soon as possible.

There’s no need for me to give unnecessary order when they can do things on their own.

For humans though, they are different. They are smart enough to trust the command from the strategist. So even if they are confident that they can win a fight, they will still obey the command.

At least that’s what I believe. Because I think I’m the only one fighting however I want while the others are not. So I don’t really know if they are following orders or not.

’Shelia. Graham. Victoria. You three will take the lead to fight those giant monsters unless there’s an even stronger enemy. Well, I don’t think I need to tell you this though,’ I said via telepathy.

’You’re right. I’m already fighting it!’ Shelia said.

’I don’t need to. The dragons want to fight them,’ Graham said.

’In this place, the vampires are taking the lead in fighting those huge monsters. I’ll just watch and decide on what to do after watching. I haven’t fought at all today. I want to see if I have other talent in leading or strategizing. Maybe I can do more since I can’t grow stronger,’ Victoria said.

Why is her self-esteem keep getting lower? She’s already irreplaceable.

’Victoria, you can do whatever you want. Whether you want to fight on your own or watch from the back, it’s up to you,’ I said to her.

’Okay.’

I don’t know if her confidence will increase or not. I hope it will help.

’What about you, Crabbe? Is there any huge monster approaching from the sea?’ I asked Crabbe.

’There are more huge monsters in the sea than on land. It’s normal to find one. We’re facing three giant sea monsters at the moment. And the mermaids are doing well. They are fighting with their tridents without letting themselves get hurt. They haven’t used their poison yet,’ Crabbe said.

That’s great. It’s unfortunate that Spot is not here. Good thing we managed to recruit the mermaids.

Spot or one of his children will be the conqueror of the sea, huh. What if that makes them unable to fly anymore? It means that they will focus more on the fight in the sea.

I will just hope for the best for them. I don’t know what the result will be but I hope they will be fine with the result.

’Master, I see some human-sized monsters. They are quick. So maybe one of them could pass our defense and enter the kingdom,’ Graham said.

’Don’t worry about it. Even if they manage to get in the kingdom, there’s nothing they can find here other than me and Red. We have evacuated everyone else. As for the houses, there’s really no need to care, right? They can be built again later,’ I replied.

And we don’t have to worry because we have the current fastest creature in this world helping us. Pawzer is fighting those monsters that somehow managed to pass our defense. And those fast creatures also couldn’t even see Pawzer moving around.

Just when I thought of him, I could see him approaching me.

"Hey. I’d like to just kill anyone who is getting closer instead of going for the humans anymore. Those humans are too tricky," Pawzer said.

He’s right. Those humans might be tamers, but their other elements also have been trained. And they don’t lack fighting experience. Because they need to be able to fight well if they have this many tamed monsters.

So when they noticed something get closer even when they couldn’t see it, they still managed to step back and avoid death or protect themselves. They are dangerous even when they are not master level mages.

It seems like tamers and those who are in a party with them in this world to get a lot of tamed monsters have more experience than even master level mages. It makes them more dangerous.

"I think there’s no more need for us to stay here. I’ll join the fight. I might not be able to do much but I can still fight the weaker enemies," Red said.

"Then I’ll look for the space mages and the tamers. Good luck, Red."

After telling my familiars that I will be joining the fight, I started looking around for any human enemies while killing enemies on the way.

"He’s here! This is really where the Aura user and his familiars from!"

That’s the shout of a tamer that I killed. He’s telling the others about me.

Seems like they’re really attacking here because they think that this is where I am and where my familiars are. At least in this world.

Well, it doesn’t matter. We will kill all enemies.

Sure, some monsters stopped fighting when I killed their master. But most of them were not smart enough to surrender. So the fight continues.

’Roy, there’s a problem. There are humanoid insect monsters!’ Victoria reported via telepathy.

’And what’s the problem with them?’ I asked.

’Insects are known to have great strength. Now that they are the size of a human, they are much stronger than werebeast monsters. It took two weretigers to defeat just one. The worst part is that they seem to have no intellect. We can’t communicate with them. So even when their master is killed, they will still fight and we can’t negotiate with them. Being humanoid insect monsters, each of them have four arms and two legs. And each of their hand is holding a weapon,’ Victoria said.

It seems like they’re here. The main force of the cult’s monster army. Humanoid insect monsters.

’Master, they can even fight underwater,’ Crabbe said.

’They can fly as well! Even the dragons are troubled by them,’ Graham said.

Seriously? Maybe I should really have a humanoid insect monster. Though it seems like they are not a creature we can communicate with.

’There’s also a possibility of a queen insect. Usually, insects only obey the order of their queen. So maybe the queen is the one being tamed. If their queen is someone you can communicate with, it will be easier if we force the queen to stop the insects from fighting. Though before that, we need to kill the tamers first. And if the queen is not here, then we have no choice but to kill everyone,’ Victoria said.

She knows a lot about insect. But that’s good.

Though if it’s as she said and the queen is not in the battlefield at all, there’s a chance that the battle will never be over. Because even if we kill the tamer, if the queen is far from danger and still alive, there might be another tamer nearby who will tame the queen so the queen will continue obeying the tamer’s order.

There’s only one thing I can order to everyone. So I take a deep breath and used air magic to increase the volume of my voice so it will spread all over the battlefield.

"KILL!!!!"

That’s the simplest and the best order to give in this situation. To kill all the enemies in sight.

And I also rushed forward and killed all the enemies I can reach.

From my right side, I can see an arrow is flying toward me. But I know that it’s not aiming at me. So I ignore it as the arrow flew right in front of my eye and killed a monster on my left side.

I just showed my thumb to the elf that shot the arrow. Tia.

"Use vines and trees for cover! The insects are strong!" I shouted to the elves.

They are not that good in direct combat. They are quick but they are easily overpowered. So it’s best if they just give us some cover by shooting from distance.

The war is still going. And we have no intention in losing.
