Chapter 18: Chapter 18. Charge!

Seven Sins System Chapter 18. Charge!

We spent the rest of the journey talking about all that could happen there and how to deal with them. Including the worst case where another, more powerful monster came and we had no other choice but to fight it.

I also warned them about a few things, especially about their strength's limits. Even though they were only about level 20, with good cooperation, I predicted they could defeat all kinds of monsters up to level 40.

So if we encountered a higher-level monster than that, we should retreat. It also only applied to one at a time. If there were two of them, we also had to back off. Well, in urgent cases, I could use my tentacles to kill the monster secretly.

"Any other questions?" I asked. My eyes swept over them. We just got an announcement that we would be arriving at our destination in a few minutes and entering the battlefield as soon as we arrived.

"No sir," they answered in unison.

"Good." I turned to the monitor in front of us. The city view had changed to a beautiful green field from an hour ago. Some low-level monsters around us immediately fled as soon as they saw the vehicles. A small camp surrounded by thick wood fences was not far in front of us.

An announcement appeared in front of me.

[Do you want to accept a quest?]

[Clear your first mission and protect your team.]

[Type: Side Quest.]

[Target: Team 8.]

[Reward: Quest points and EXP.]

[Yes] / [No]

As usual, I chose yes. Although a bit strange, it seemed that the quests were related to my emotions and desires.

I returned my gaze to them.

"Claire, Barry. Remember. Dodge if you can, parry if you have no other choice." At the same time, I extended my hand to them.

'Devil's Blessing.'

White light enveloped and entered their bodies. Yeah, that was also because of my Fake Status.

[Your team ATK, M. ATK, and SPD + 75%]

[Time remaining: 14:59 ]

Then an announcement came from the monitor.

"We will arrive at our destination soon. Please, prepare for the impact."

Their faces stiffened. Their hands quickly grabbed onto the handles and waited. Likewise with me.

The car engine's roaring sound came as our vehicle went faster. The armored vehicles cut through those green fields fiercely, like a herd of beasts ready to ambush their prey. Not even the sturdy wooden wall could stop us.

As we almost hit the wall, the magic device activated and created a transparent barrier to protect our vehicle.

- BRAK!

A loud crashing sound echoed accompanied by a tremendous shaking. From the monitor, we knew we had entered enemy territory. The vehicle stopped and the door opened.

"Let's move out!" I ordered.

Our hands quickly released our seat belts and stormed out. With alacrity, they called upon their weapons.

Claire and Barry quickly blocked the two Mad Boars that were charging at us.

While Ion attacked another Mad Boar. With his fast movement, even though he was not a tank, he could deal some damage to the monster well.

Evie and Darren attacked from the distance to back up Ion, killing their first Mad Boar before finishing the other two.

Behind us, the vehicles left and retreated to the safe zone.

Loud banging sounds came from all directions. Likewise with the clashing sound of swords. As I expected, the real battlefield was very different from the hologram which had a fixed number of enemies. The same went for programmed attacks.

Worse, there were at least more than 40 monsters here. Which meant that the academy's estimates were off.

But since we kept pushing through. Although I caught a bit of nervousness from my team since the monsters came from all directions, they remained calm and stayed in their battle formation.

As a mentor, I didn't have to do much other than watch over them and ensure their safety. I only needed to use my Shadow Barrier to protect them once in a while. So I decided to look around, trying to steal the opportunity to send my tentacles to hunt other monsters.

That small camp only contained several mounds of dirt and the only thing that looked like a real building was a pile of wood that resembled a tower. Also, I didn't see any other use for the mounds around us other than to hide. Surprisingly, the monsters didn't use it. So I felt a bit fishy about it.

We continued to advance toward another mound. After making sure the others were busy, I hid half of my body behind the mound and used my tentacles. My eyes remained on my team.

'Greed.'

Three of my tentacles popped out of my back and separated themselves from me. In an instant, they turned into several baby-sized worm monsters that snuck into the ground. That way, I could use them to level up remotely or investigate what happened since I felt something was wrong with this place. At least based on my instincts and battle experiences.

Unfortunately, I hadn't been in the mortal realm for a long time, so I didn't know how this realm's monsters behave.

In just under fifteen minutes, we managed to kill all the monsters here.

"Piece of cake~," Barry said with a proud grin. His lance in his hand turned into shards of light, which meant that he had put it back into his inventory ring.

'Yeah. Piece of cake....' I thought as I could feel the EXP flowing into me. I moved my three tentacles into the forest, turned them into huge monster worms, and killed another horde of Mad Boar. There were far more of them in that place than in this camp. But of course, I did everything quietly.

Apart from leveling up, since their eyes were connected to mine, I could use them to observe the forest.

"Barry, our mission isn't over yet. Keep your weapon ready," Claire warned him. Just like me, her eyes were watching the surroundings with caution.

At the same time, Evie was busy destroying the mounds around us with her earth spell.

"Relax, Claire. We have killed them all," said Barry. His hand swept around, pointing to the monsters' bodies around us.

"But the chief hasn't shown up yet," I reminded him. My eyes scanned one monster corpse to another.

The same went for other mentors. They swept their gazes around to make sure the Mad Boar Chief wasn't among the bodies.

"Oh, shit..." Barry muttered. He quickly recalled upon his lance and swept his gaze around him in caution.

But a second later, I found where The Chief was. He was in a cave with another horde of Mad Boar. It looked like they wanted to trap us. Unfortunately, I found them first. So I simply made my tentacles kill them one by one and ate them.

[All enemies have been defeated!]

[Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!]

[You are now Level 20. HP +100, DP + 100, ATK and MATK + 25, DEF and SPD +10]

[SPD: 63]          [DEF: 63]

I closed my eyes as a surge of energy flowed into my body.

'This is much-much better than chicken wraps.'

Meanwhile, Evie was about to use her earth spell to destroy another mound. But a huge fireball shot through it and it shocked everyone.
