“I guess going with this group should be enough,” Druid Oz muttered as he observes the group of magic beasts surrounding him.

Since the information that he could obtain by relying on his summoned insects is limited, Druid Oz decided that he’s going to need to scout the demonic base on his own.

But of course, reducing some of its numbers before the kingdom’s army clashes with them is also inside his agenda. That’s why Druid Oz gathered some elites of his magical beasts.

Druid Oz gathered 5 frost lions, 5 direwolves, 4 wind jade falcons, 2 mountain gorillas, 3 griffins, 5 flame foxes, and 4 ectra pythons. They are the group that is considered the strongest amongst their kin.

Gor was supposed to join as the strongest of the mountain gorillas, but Druid Oz tasked him to protect the magical beast cubs, and the capital in case something unexpected happened.

The number Druid Oz gathered is already more than enough. Since Druid Oz’s main aim is to scout any magical traps and barriers that surround the Griftania empire’s capital, the small number he’s bringing is the best option.

“Now, for the insurance,” Druid Oz tap his mansion’s door with his wooden staff, leaving a big green magic circle on it. But after several seconds, the magic circle disappeared as if it entered the door.

“Time to go,” Druid Oz muttered to his familiars.

Responding to his words, his familiars bowed.

This time, Druid Oz didn’t transform into his Owlfolk form. He’s using his frost lion form. By using the frost lion form, it would be easier for him to travel at the average speed of his familiars.

Without wasting any time, Druid Oz and his familiars dashed to the forest with the demonic base as their destination at a great speed. Even though their speed isn’t as fast as the Galhala kingdom’s warriors, the difference is just a small gap.

There is also one additional reason why Druid Oz brought the strongest of his familiars with him. All of them had already entered the [Duke] rank, and because of the intense battles with the demons, they must have accumulated lots of experience points.

Ascending them, or at least some of them to the [King] rank is what Druid Oz hoped he could also achieve in this investigation.

***************************

—Inside the Galhala Kingdom’s Royal Palace—

“Your majesty, Lord Ren’s currently entering the forest together with his familiars at a great speed. Should I send some of the royal guards to tail him and guard him if something happened?” Asked one of the closest aides of the Galhala King, the captain of the royal guards, Reno.

“Leave him be. His familiars are strong, and he’s stronger. He must have something inside his mind, I guess that is the reason why he refused to join the royal meeting… Allomere,” The Galhala King unusually wears a serious expression as he called out his best friend, the prime minister, Allomere.

“The direction he’s heading is the demonic base. From what he said before, his insect familiars could not enter the Griftania empire’s capital that had become the demonic base, leaving him unable to determine and give us accurate information that we could rely on,” (The Prime Minister, Allomere)

“Judging by his pace, it seems like his objective is not that alone. But as you’ve said, he must have something in his mind. He’s not the type of a person that will do reckless things, after all,” (The Prime Minister, Allomere)

“So he decides to scout the demon’s base himself because he couldn’t obtain accurate information that we could rely on, huh… It’s a piece of good news for the kingdom, but I guess I couldn’t be happy with that. Even though he’s strong, it still worries me, Reno, don’t let Claria know about this,” The Galhala King warns the captain of the royal guards to not let the general princess know about it.

“As you wish, my queen,” answered the captain of the royal guards with a bow.

“It’s not strange for you to worry, dear. You’re not the only one,” said the Galhala King as he stares outside the royal palace’s window.

“Indeed… But let’s continue worrying later and focus on the royal military meeting in front of us first. After the royal meeting finished, we could continue this discussion again,” (The Prime Minister, Allomere)

“True. Reno, on second thought, sends five royal guards to tail him. They’re to guard him with their lives if his life is in danger,” The Galhala King changed his decision.

“As you wish, my king,” The captain of the royal guards immediately left the room to gather his subordinates.

“A king’s intuition, huh…” The Galhala King muttered towards himself as he stares at the cloudy skies.

*********************************

“Hm… I found our first target,” (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz has his infernal mosquitos surrounding the Griftania empire’s capital. Since they couldn’t enter the imperial capital, Druid Oz could only use them to observe the capital from outside and to monitor the demons that left the Griftania empire.

In other words, the demon’s scouts and the pillage groups.

The demonic scouts consist of about 10-15 demons that monitor the surrounding of the Griftania empire, while the pillage groups consist of 100-200 demons that are tasked to pillage and hunt magic beasts surrounding the empire.

Druid Oz had sent some of the summoned insects to follow the pillage groups his summoned insects had encountered, They search through the kingdoms and kill anything living. They’ll kill any magic beasts they encountered, eat their magic cores, and return to their demonic base.

But since his summoned insects are too small, it seems that the demons didn’t consider them as their food. But even if they do, the summoned insects’ agility is high enough that they would be able to flee easily from the demons.

But even so, Druid Oz continues to tail the pillage groups, hoping that they might lead him to a village filled with other demihumans or other Owlfolks. If he found out that there are some survivors, he will immediately instruct his summoned insects to kill the demons or even instruct them to self-destruct to save the survivors.

“Let’s go!” Druid Oz changes directions as he dashes towards the direction of a certain pillage group that is wandering at an outskirt village of the Griftania empire’s territory.

Their number is 150, it’s a little bit many, but they’re still a perfect experiment subject for Druid Oz and his familiars.

Unlike the demons that attacked the Galhala kingdom’s capital before, the pillage group doesn’t consist of the main army of the demonic base. They only have five high-ranked demons that act as the leaders of the group.

(Now, time to close our distance) (Druid Oz)

Druid Oz instructs one of his infernal mosquitos to make a magic circle at the ground below the high-ranked demons. The infernal mosquito injects his mana towards the magic circle, and a small green flower appears from it.

After several moments, two additional infernal mosquitos gather near the magic circle and inject their mana towards the flower as well. After injecting their mana for several minutes, the flower slowly blooms, indicating the death of the high-ranked demons is getting near.

And when the flower fully blooms.

“[Flower Warp],”

!?!?!?!?!?!?

The five high-ranked demons that are observing their subordinates that are searching through the village for a survivor got caught off guard. The five of them suddenly lost their head.

The frost lion bites off the high-ranked demons’ heads, separating them from their bodies, killing them on the spot.

Still, in his frost lion form, Druid Oz commands his familiars, “Go!”

With that single command, the killing spree started. Druid Oz leads his familiars and dashes towards the group of demons in front of them.

The appearance of Druid Oz and his group is too sudden and made the demons got caught off guard. Without letting them regain their senses, Druid Oz uses one of the frost lion’s big ice magic spells.

[Ice Prism]

Together with the other frost lions, Druid Oz froze 50 of the demons in front of them in one spell. The flame foxes and wind jade falcons throw out their spells as well, while the direwolves, griffins, ectra pythons, and the mountain gorillas charged to the demons’ ranks.

And in just 5 minutes, Druid Oz and his familiars wipe out the 150 demons easily, leaving not even a single one alive.
