...
Although Leon was using just a small amount mana between the fights against the mermaids, his skills were leveling up like crazy. Even those that were past level one hundred.
"I wonder if it is because I\'m doing something difficult.."
Despite a few setbacks, Leon didn\'t feel like stopping any time soon. Although he wasn\'t progressing all that much to learn a new spell, he was being rewarded more than he could ask for. Still, it looked things wouldn\'t improve just as he wanted. Perhaps in a few more days, Leon would learn something incredible, but suddenly Jertien appeared, and it looked like he brought bad news.
"We have a problem. We will have to abandon our plan to strengthen ourselves," Jertien declared.
"What happened?" Leon asked.
"I was worried as to why we didn\'t find any angels lately, so instead of resting. I decided to investigate," Jertien explained. "On the central continent, I discovered that the angels and their leader are preparing for a ritual."
"... What kind of ritual?" Leon frowned.
"I don\'t know, but it is something massive," Jertien said. "They are creating a magic circle that is half of the size of the central continent. Their leader didn���t care about the disappearance of a few angels because he was killing every single monster that tried to destroy the magic circle."
"A magic circle, huh..." Leon rubbed his chin. "I wonder how they can store mana to create a magic circle of the size of a continent."
"They are not using mana to create the magic circle, the circle is made of monsters\' blood," Jertien explained. "Most likely, they are going to sacrifice mana for whatever they are planning to do. Possibly the entire world\'s mana is going to be sacrificed, and we don\'t know what might happen if the planet suddenly loses all its mana."
Leon wondered if such a thing was even possible, still... considering that the angels were probably even older than the harvesters, they probably have much more knowledge. Perhaps their invasion had that single goal... and they used the last twenty years just for preparation for that.
"Now that I think about it, I don\'t know much about magic circles. Well, it is not like I can learn about just by thinking or defeating monsters..."
Leon and Jertien returned to their hideout, and there they found everyone in silence and showing worried expressions.
"... We will attack the central continent tonight," Jorhorn declared. "Rest while you can because this battle will be long."
"How many angels are we going to face?" Alurelle asked.
"That is a difficult question, I didn\'t observe them for long, nor did I checked all the magic circle," Jertien frowned. "But..."
"Just say it," Jorhorn said.
"If I had to guess... I would say the enemies are one hundred thousand strong," Jertien said. "Perhaps a bit more... I\'m not really worried about their numbers. I\'m worried about how mad their leader will become once we destroy the thing he has been planning for decades."
Facing an army of one hundred thousand humans and facing an army of one hundred thousand angels were two different things, so Leon was worried. Besides, their leader seemed far more dangerous, and if he gets mad, he will become even more dangerous.
"Don\'t worry. We didn\'t have enough time to grow strong as we planned," Jorhorn said. "But we can take that bastard down if we work together."
"Aren\'t we missing something here?" Ismenria asked. "What if they are planning to do the same thing on the other planets?"
"Even if they are… we can only fight them here," Genelosa answered. "This battle will be long, and we will probably use a lot of mana stored on Soul Eater. I doubt that at the end of the battle, if we survive, we will have enough to start another battle on another planet."
"Tsk." Ismenria clicked her tongue and looked away, annoyed.
"… Perhaps we don\'t have to worry about that," Alurelle said. "Remember, the angels invaded all six planets… so, maybe, they need to do this in all six planets for them to succeed."
"Mmm… there is a chance that you are right," Jertien nodded. "If they needed only one world, invading a single planet would make things progress much faster."
"That is a possibility," Jorhorn said. "Anyway, like I said. Rest while you can, we will depart soon."
Leon wondered why those guys weren\'t curious about what the angels were planning to do, creating such a magic circle. They only wanted to destroy it, and even though it was reasonable, their lack of curiosity wasn\'t.
"Using the mana of an entire world is crazy, but using the mana of six worlds on the third stage of assimilation? What the hell the angels are planning to do with so much power?"
