《The Battle Mage》Unexpected Visit
Advertisement
"Lyan..." Arachne was a bit sad after hearing my story.
I was prepared to get slapped or nagged but nothing happened so I looked up and saw the two women resisting the urge to cry, I didn't know what to do so I only watched them struggle.
"Lyan...I never really thought that you would already have a fiance..." Mira broke the silence.
"...Yeah, I always thought that the first wife would at least be ate Mira or me..." ("Ate" means older sister)
That's what guys you were worried about? I mean seriously? or maybe there's some kind of woman logic behind this...I really don't understand these things...
While I was worried about women's logic, outside was Valeria, Clay, Rivera, and Talia.
"Should we really be eavesdropping? " Valeria was afraid of getting punished.
"It's fine! " Rivera whispered.
"That's a relief" Valeria sighed.
"As long as you don't get caught" Rivera chuckled.
Valeria froze up upon hearing this and wanted to flee but...
"It doesn't really matter, we still love you..." from inside the cave the voice of Mira was very resolute.
Valeria couldn't help but peek again and saw that Lyan who was kneeling was hugged by Mira. Valeria couldn't help but be surprised, Mira was usually cold but in front of everyone but in front of this man, she became so gentle and kind. Valeria was now very curious on what love really is.
"Captain is so cool...." Clay was muttering to himself.
"Uwaaauwaaa..." Talia was blushing and covering her eyes but the scout was still floating above her head and was closely observing their intimate actions.
"You guys...eavesdropping is a bad habit..." I said those words and everything became quiet before Rivera walked in while laughing.
"Captain found us~" Rivera walked in and sat on one side and soon after everyone was now present in the cave.
Mira returned to her usual cold personality but she still held my hand which was quite adorable, Arachne didn't want to lose out either and coiled herself around my right arm. The actions of the two women caused weird reactions from everyone.
"Kyaaa!" Rivera was like a fan girl who saw her favorite idol.
"Captain is so cool!" Clay was looking at me with respect.
"Uwaaaa" Talia blushed and covered her eyes despite it being already covered by a black cloth...cover the scout! the scout!
Valeria only tilted her head, maybe she doesn't know what love is? Oh well, I'll just tell everyone what must be done tomorrow.
"Okay guys, what are your levels?" I asked everyone.
"110" Mira did rampage on a battlefield so this was understandable.
"109" Arachne
"101" Valeria
"35" Rivera
"40" Clay
"15" Talia
They all stated their levels so I also got curious about my level, I was too lazy to check my status every day so I really don't know my level now after my fight with the undead and that fire elemental.

'Status check!' I commanded in my mind.

146? Wow,
"146" I said those numbers and everyone from burning legion looked at me weirdly.
"Okay tomorrow we'll focus on power leveling you guys, Mira, Valeria, and I will damage them, Arachne, your job is to restrain those monsters so that clay and the others can kill them" I gave out the instructions for tomorrow.
I was going to go hunt food for dinner but surprisingly Clay already managed to catch some fishes for everyone. That night everyone slept inside the cave.
I woke up in the middle of the night, I couldn't really sleep so I carefully moved the boulder and went outside, I was still thinking about Blue, I really miss her so I only stared at the moon.
I saw something tear open...It was the same as when that man that injured Blue tear open a dimension and leave.
I quickly equipped Rea and Lea. This is bad, if that man comes here looking for clues on how Blue survived...the others will get dragged into the fight.
But contrary to my expectations, a small fox came out of the dimensional tear. The fox looked at me and quickly pounced on my face as it kept rubbing its cheek against mine.
I pat the fox on the head, it seemed to like it. The fox showed me its right paw and there seems to be a letter tied to it, I undid the knot and read the letter.
{
Dear Lyan,
It's me hubby how have you been? I'm fine here in case you're wondering. Oh yeah, this fox here is my pet, her name is Azure. I'm with my friends right now, we've gathered an entire army to fight those wolves. We are all in my friend's homeland in Lorelei in the south part of Terra, we've met a few setbacks here and there but we managed to get through each problem safely. My friends say they see me space out from time to time so they interrogated me and in the end they found out about us and now my friends are really curious about you, I really reaally miss you...every night I would wish you were here singing that song you call 'even if my hair turn gray'... I wish this war would end so I can finally go back to you...
Lyan, I love you
-Blue Mirrorlake
There were teardrops on the letter...
I looked at the small fox and it also seemed sad, I guess it knew about her master's feelings so I asked if it could return, she gave me a nod and scribbled something on the ground, it read as 30 mins before pointing at the open dimensional rip.
I had only 30 minutes before it closes so with my fastest speed I went to the forest and killed 10 demonic rabbits and started roasting them.

I took out two recording stones and started talking about the battle royale, my daily life here in Gaia as well as my relationship with Mira and Arachne, of course, I apologized. I tied the recording stone to the little fox's right paw.
I took the other recording stone and started singing the song that she liked while. By the time I finished singing the rabbits were already cooked so I took out an extra magic bag and fed the little fox one cooked rabbit before putting the rest of the cooked rabbit in the magic bag. I tied the second recording stone to it's left paw and tied the magic bag to the little fox's waist, I held the fox and kissed her on the forehead before she ran off to the dimensional rip.
The next day, we started hunting minotaurs which Clay and the others killed. This continued on for 2 days and when we stopped their levels have all reached 70, this was already good enough for me so we went down the mountain and prepared to leave for the island.
I went to the library to research about Tortoise Island and found out that 300 years ago the hero took down a demon general in tortoise island and since then tortoise island has been sealed off by Religion of Light claiming that tortoise island is a place where the hero showed his abilities and turned the island into a holy ground. Honestly, it was all a load bull so I closed the book and went back to check on the mansion that was being fixed.
On a certain cave in tortoise Island.
"Raaaaaaaaaaaagghhhh! " a demon roared out in anger. The demon had an amputated right arm while the rest of his limbs were sealed.
"Please calm yourself lord Argon!" A man tried to calm the demon down, the man wore a robe that covered his face while he held a staff that was decorated with human bones and skulls.
"How long do I have to wait?!" The demon was very impatient.
"The sacrifices are on their way here! Lord Argon need not to worry, the seal will soon be undone and they shall taste your wrath!" The man calmly spoke
"Soon...soon they will taste my wrath! " the demon laughed like a maniac causing the whole cave to shake.
We were done with our preparation and started traveling south, according to Ms.Lucia the religion of light and the knight academy will also be sending their own teams so we will all be meeting up in the town of Geruda where we will all ride the same ship and separately investigate the island, whoever discovers an anomaly first will be the one who will be receiving the reward.
These things were normal because the adventure's guild sends out the same missions to each academy present in their area, the religion of light also had their own academy. This religion of light uses this academy to train future knights and priests.
We all rode a carriage that I modified beforehand, each person was to sleep in pairs so there were a total of 4 carriages connected to each other like a train. The first carriage was for Clay and me, the second for Mira and Arachne, the third for Talia and Rivera while the last one was for Valeria alone.
I bought a lot of stuff for the families of Clay, Rivera, and Talia. They have no idea that we are going to take a detour to their town.
We traveled for 2 days and reached the Regulus, it was the largest city in the south part of our country. After resupplying, we all went our way towards Geruda. Clay, Rivera, and Talia live in a small town called Meruda which was close to Geruda. I told Clay and the other's to take a good night's rest, they followed what I said and slept early while I told the coachman to head for Meruda.
We arrived in Meruda at 3 am so I took a nap f two hours and woke everyone up.
"Captain...we there yet?" Clay sat down with a yawn
"Look outside" I said as I left to wake up Rivera and Talia next.
"... Oi Clay, why are you so quiet?" Rivera walked out of their carriage and saw Clay just standing there so she asked.
"We...we're home..." Clay said in a low voice
"Speak up, I can't hear you..." Rivera walked towards Clay but when she looked in front, she saw a very familiar gate.
"We're back home?! " Talia screamed out the moment she left the carriage, her words caused Rivera and Clay who was still quiet to look at me.
"Surprise" I laughed while I called Mira, Arachne, and Valeria for breakfast.
"Captain...why?" Clay asked.
"Because I miss my family and I bet you guys do too, don't you want to let them know that you were taken in by the awesome me?" I chuckled as I started cooking chicken soup.
"Captain... Thank-" Clay was going to thank me but Rivera slapped his mouth to shut him up. I only laughed at this scene.
"Eat your breakfast and let's all visit your families! " I took a bowl and filled it up with soup before passing it on to Clay.
After eating breakfast, all of us entered Meruda. After a few minutes of walking, we arrived at 2 run-down houses. Turns out that Clay and Rivera are neighbors and childhood friends but it seems that Talia lives in the outskirts of Meruda.

Re:Hammer - The Hammering
Sequel to the sort of liked Re:Hammer. Set in 40k universe, and generally on course. Personal changes are detailed in the Prologue because it's quite a bit. It's not really ended nor is it an attrocity like End Times, but I've got a few things to change. To note: Druchii arc (If this means nothing to you, go read Re:Hammer first) has been learned from and will be avoided. This is not to say there won't be any sex, but we will certainly try to keep it less crazy. Feedback is, as always, appreciated and worked with.
