Erik nodded. He knew June was right, but he was still worried, and most of that was for Mira, Amber, and Emily.
As the clone said, they were not to be underestimated and could be considered elite fighters back on the Mannard continent.
They were even more powerful than Van Dyke at this point, thanks to the technique he gave them.
Amber was even a member of the Red Palace, the most esteemed training organization of the whole Frant, so she knew how to fight.
And yet, the blackguards had always been, and all their technological progresses made them just more powerful.
Going to the Maynard Island, going to Mur, was no joke. Besides, he had grown so powerful, so far beyond the limits of the average human, that he sometimes found himself viewing them as fragile and in need of protection.
There was a pause, in which Erik could do nothing but think. But the young man didn't come here to talk to the Chimaeric Demons just about the blackguards. There was a more concerning matter that needed to be addressed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Shaking off these thoughts, Erik turned his attention back to the Chimaeric Demons.
"What about the Mur continent? Have you found any information on how we might reach that place?"
The Chimaeric Demons had an idea of what they had to do to reach the place. The problem was how they had to do it. Those there couldn't help but make grim expressions as Erik asked that question.
"Swimming or flying there while shapeshifting is suicidal, since thaids from the Mur continent roam there. This time, it is not just a possibility; it is almost a certainty."
While Maynard Island was still in the human-controlled territory and was far from the influence of Mur's thaids since it was relatively far from the thaid-infested continent, being east of the accursed place, Hin's western side wasn't.
It was actually the closest land to Mur. The waters, teeming with thaids from the area, weren't even that big.
A flying thaid would reach Hin's shores in hours if nothing prevented it from coming, and that was a question in itself.
How could the blackguards stop the creatures from reaching Hin if they were so powerful?
However, it wasn't just from the sky that the blackguards had to fear a threat. Even the waters housed horrors that no sane human, even the most powerful one, would dare to fight.
"Suicide, you say?"
It was a daunting target, a fortress that he wasn't that sure he could take. After all, if Hin's troops grew so much with Erik's technique, he couldn't fathom how strong the blackguards were at this point.
It was a while since he saw one of them, but he was sure that every single one of them now had at least two brain crystal powers, and that was without counting the brain crystal equipment
that Etrium provided.
But it was also their only hope to reach Mur. In the end, Erik was going to get a clearer picture of the situation once he fought against the blackguards on Maynard Island.
The blackguards would learn that Erik was targeting them, and the most natural place to go after Maynard Island was the Mur continent.
For years, he did most of the stuff alone, but he still was on the Mannard continent. The Leviathan Serpent proved to him that moving alone on Mur was suicidal, even for him. Erik really needed an army, but not just because he had to traverse the sea to reach Mur, but even
to fight the blackguards.
If they could get at least one of the planes, then he might reach Mur with a small contingent of Chimaeric Demons, and there, make more. The ones staying on Hin would, for sure, send help later. But would he be able to survive until then?
"We have to find a way," Erik said to the Chimaeric Demons. "I will start making eggs in earnest, and once we have enough people, we will start planning our approach. However, I think we might need to attack Maynard Island and the Law Gate at the same time. If words of our attack on their main base reach them, they might destroy the planes."
"You think they will assume we would want to reach Mur?" June asked. "Why wouldn't they? Dad said the blackguards are mostly on Mur. At this point, it would be
the most natural place to go to destroy them all."
Erik thought for a second. "Can you take care of this?" Erik asked June.
"Me? Wouldn't it be better to send just Chimaeric Demons?"
"No. I need you to do this. The Chimaeric Demons are smart, that's for sure, but their nature and their brief lives make them somewhat naïve. I need someone experienced to do this. While you attack the Law Gate, I will destroy Maynard Island. In the meantime, the Chimaeric Demons we left at the shores outpost would sneak their way into Hin's outpost, and those with the invisibility brain crystal power will leave the country to infiltrate foreign governments. For them, taking the place of their leaders will be possible, and for sure, they would do a better job than me."
June nodded. "I will find a way to grant you your wish, Master," he said. Erik turned back to the Chimaeric Demons. "Thank you for the report," he said. "Your information is a starting point. Now, we just need to make sure we will reach the end one."
