The Goblin's Leveling System!

Chapter 196: Participating In A War Against The Demon Race

Axel's PoV:

All of the heroes were now outside the Holy Church since our short meeting was finished.

Our previous short meeting was pretty straightforward since I didn't have a plan in mind. Before I could come up with a plan, I still needed to see the demons that would be included in my plan.

I was the type to create a plan when I was faced with a problem, not the type to create a plan before I was faced with a problem.

My teammates and I were situated outside the Holy Church for one reason which was to depart to a nearby kingdom where the demons have already invaded that nearby kingdom.

All of us were waiting for a guide who knew where the kingdom was located since we couldn't just take guesses and travel in different directions without even knowing the exact coordinates of that kingdom.

Fortunately, the Holy Church had a priest who doesn't preach that much in the church but instead, gathered information about the outside world.

The Holy Church was filled to the brim with not only followers of a certain religion but also high-ranking church officials such as priests, bishops, archbishops, and the pope.

There ought to be at least one of those people to gather information about the outside world since most of them secluded themselves from the outside world just to devote themselves to a certain God.

The people inside the Holy Church were supporters of God so they didn't mind helping us heroes who were known as apostles of the God who summoned us into this world.

That was why one of the priests inside the Holy Church who was one of the church officials that was tasked to gather information about the outside world willingly aided the heroes' party.

As my teammates and I waited for a few minutes, the entrance of the Holy Church opened, and a man in his thirties didn't wear any church clothing but instead, casual adventurer clothes that were easy to move in when attacking monsters.

The church clothing used by the people inside the Holy Church was mostly white so it wasn't convenient to use for travels as it could easily be stained by dirt or blood.

"It's a pleasure to help you, oh apostles of the Gods! My name is Reinbach and I am here to guide you as we travel kingdoms to kingdoms!"

The thirty-year-old man in adventurer clothing bowed to us while he enthusiastically expressed his job.

As I had expected, I wasn't that pleasant when I am called an apostle of the Gods because I only referred to myself as the apostle of the God Of Worldly Systems.

Nonetheless, I still needed to respond to the greeting of the man named Reinbach.

"Glad to have you guiding us in our travels! Mind we start our travel now?"

"Certainly not!"

Reinbach and I exchanged some words before the two of us decided to start our travel.

To make our journey a lot faster and easier, all of us heroes decided to use wind magic to travel by air while I used my wind magic to levitate Reinbach into the air.

All of us including Reinbach were now hundreds of meters above ground but we didn't fly at a higher altitude since we wouldn't be able to see the ground.

How could we navigate our surroundings if we couldn't see what was below, right?

Reinbach acted as our navigator as he used his finger to point towards the direction where the nearby kingdom that was conquered by the demons was located at.

Demons had started to invade and conquer the other kingdoms but we didn't plan on wasting our energy and time in saving the citizens. Our goal was to regain the kingdom from the demons' control and exterminate all of the demons.

Most of the kingdoms that possessed a lot of military strength weren't conquered by the demons but those kingdoms had inevitably suffered some losses such as manpower and wealth.

Repairing broken infrastructures caused by the war was costly and the labor added to the total expenditures.

It was a good thing I didn't decide to rule a kingdom or something since I wouldn't have to worry about it.

Although, it was inevitable for me to become a king of a kingdom since Aerin was the only heir of the kingdom of Sylmys and I was her fiance. Therefore, I would become king after I married Aerin.

Anyways, all of us spent several minutes traveling through the air while Reinbach was navigating and pointing directions where the nearby kingdoms that were attacked by a demon were located at.

After another several minutes had passed by, all of us have arrived a hundred meters away from a kingdom.

The kingdom that we had arrived in was a kingdom inhabited by mostly humans, one of the weakest races. Inside the human kingdom emanated demonic mana that shrouded the entire kingdom.

It was clear that there should be at least an archdemon who was inside the human kingdom since none of the demons I had met below the archdemon rank could release such thick and sinister demonic mana.

A powerful demon at the rank of supreme demon rank should be able to perform such a feat but it was unlikely. Even if it was, it would only be made our job a lot easier since the disparity in strength between a supreme rank demon compared to an archdemon rank demon was high.

Even if all of us were a hundred meters away from the human kingdom, all of us except for Reinbach could see what was going on by channeling our mana towards our eyes to improve our eyesight.

Reinbach could also do the same but I told him not to waste his mana since he would need it in times when my teammates and I couldn't save him in time. Unlike us heroes, humans such as Reinbach didn't possess that much mana capacity in their mana.

It would be a waste if Reinbach somehow depleted his mana and he couldn't defend an attack from a demon. If that ever happened, then we would lose a useful travel guide which would make our journey a lot harder.

I had planned to formulate a plan to regain the human kingdom that was conquered by the demons but seeing that the demonic mana being released inside the human kingdom wasn't that thick compared to a demon lord rank, then I decided to deal with the demons without any plan.

The reason why some intelligent people won was that they used their knowledge to cover up the lack of strength they possessed.

Since I was both intelligent and powerful, I could just formulate a plan during my upcoming battle against the demons if I ever needed a plan.

I had already defeated high-level monsters that were above level 70,000 so fighting an archdemon that was at least level 25,000 would be a piece of cake.

I didn't even need to use my intelligence when fighting against an enemy weaker than me. I already had enough strength stats to obliterate a level 30,000 being with only my pure physical attack.

As I thought of that, I decided to test the waters by creating a compressed mana bullet using my mana.

A slightly huge compressed mana that had the shape of a bullet appeared on top of my right palm. I aimed the compressed mana bullet towards the human kingdom.

I released the compressed mana bullet towards the human kingdom which caused shockwaves to generate as it passed through the air at high speed.

Eventually, the compressed mana bullet collided with the demonic mana that was being released inside the human kingdom.

The compressed mana bullet was prevented by the demonic mana that acted as a barrier. The compressed mana bullet had its mana being absorbed bit by bit due to the demonic mana so I had no choice but to detonate the compressed mana bullet.

The explosion caused by the compressed mana bullet caused the demonic mana outside the human kingdom to shake while some of the demonic mana dissipated.

I found out the reason why the human kingdom was surrounded by thick demonic mana and it wasn't because of an archdemon's demonic mana causing such phenomenon.

It was because of some sort of array or artifact set up or crafted by the demons.

If that was the case, then it would just make our job a lot easier. Defeating demons below the archdemon rank was like easy mode turned on in games.

The only troublesome thing about demons was their ability to perform demonization which was also known as demonic transformation since it increased a demon's power by some levels.

It would take me a while to defeat an archdemon that had activated demonization and I'm not gonna lie about that. If a demon lord performed demonization, then I'm sure that I would certainly be dead, no doubt about it.

As I had discovered the presence of a demonic mana barrier that had been constructed on the human kingdom, I decided to test the durability of such barrier as I created numerous compressed mana bullets.

"I doubt that flimsy barrier can withstand against my attacks!"
