Chapter 342: Knowing More Facts about the Soul Sucker Scary Monsters!


    I put the final battle always in front of me, however I totally forgot how long and far distanced it was right now from me!


    If I kept going like this, much more troubles would surely emerge! I smiled, as at this moment I felt how it was important to have friends, wise friends, like Merwid.


    "Thank you so much for your advice, I was wrong, and I will correct that mistake right now," I then turned to address them all, as I said in a strong tone, "Let''s resume our previous arrangements. Spread everyone here, let''s sweep cleanly this ce. Also if anything strange urred, just inform me at once."


    They all smiled and nodded, cheerfully darted towards their own assignments. Even the recently recovered Rog, went also to make his own task.


    I simply nced at them, feeling how much blessed I was by having them by my side. The old words of Shin about the words of advice one of my past selves said to him rang in my mind right now.


    ''You wrote ''Tell my future self that loneliness is the root of all defeats, so therger the better, the earlier the better.'' I remembered that I told the next few versions of you this advice but they didn''t understand anything from it. Do you understand what you meant that day?''


    "Sigh, how much I miss you now, Shin," I softly and destely muttered, as he was an unforgettable person.


    Despite that, these words were really hammering the nail on the point. I knew it now, how important it was to have friends and allies. I couldn''t get so far till now without the help of everyone around me.


    Per my new orders, the whole army brimmed with activity, while I almost heard the cheering again here and there, repeating the old slogan of mine, driving a smile over my face.


    "We will wait at the barrier for them to return, and I will go onwards to scout the nextyer."


    I said my orders to Diana, who was about to leave as well, before I jumped into my balloon, resummoned my demon, and went ahead towards the next barrier.


    As for the wounded yers, they were already following Rog, doing their task with much pride and determination.


    I went ahead, while the distant border was there in the sight. My mind was revising every single moment of the battle with that huge monster.


    It wasn''t fast, nor slow, and it didn''t make a single noise. What was strange, as well, was the fact I managed to see it when I retreated, while when advancing to attack, I thought it started to faint away, blending with the surroundings.


    So, it could be detected by that, and also it could be detected when I used my mystic arts on it.


    Every time an attack fell on it, its body shone brightly, being more corporeal. That made me realize there were ways to detect it, beside the dog-like nose of my demon.


    I also needed to ask him more about this monster, and how to counter it. however I was already entering the thirteenthyer, where I was weed by arge ocean of demons, seemingly waiting for my army to cross the borders.


    This scene was starting to be quite familiar, and it didn''t arouse any rms inside me. I kept going, using the shield of mine to protect me from all those annoying flying demons.


    After two days of flight, I didn''t see anything suspicious here, and my army had already finished clearing everything in the twelveyer. So, when they sent me the news, I asked them toe over, and continue doing what they wanted here.


    This area needed five more days from me to cover, but I didn''t find anything suspicious. I returned to join my army, which was still very far away from the next border, while enjoying some rare moments of peace.


    And during these calm days, I entered a couple of times into my prison, interrupting the intimate positions of these two lovers.


    Through these visits, I understood how to detect this monster, as the demoness exined calmly, as if it was a very known simple fact, known to everyone:


    "Master, this kind of monster lives on sucking the energy from the areas around it. as it has a veryrge body, it needs a muchrger amount of energy to remain alive, so the energy bnce will be disturbed for miles around it.


    You can use many ways to detect the energy imbnce at any time, there are special abilities you call skills that can do it, and some jobs of yours which you call sses upon it could do the same, especially the magician and wizard sses. They are very sensitive to the energy imbnce in the air."


    I learnt from her that what she referred to as energy meant MANA, and that made me feel more at ease. We could use the magicians in our army, and even healers, to detect these imbnces.


    These sses had a dog like senses towards the MANA concentration, and any imbnce would be detected.


    So I ryed my orders, adding the condition of the presence of a group of healers, or magicians inside any group leaving this ce. any area showingrge energy imbnce must be avoided at once, and that area would be reported back to me.


    The order was easy to execute, and despite others not knowing what it was for, they already did what I asked from them.


    The second great info piece I learnt was from the demoness too, as it seemed my demon was quite tamed and quiet when he was inside her arms!


    "To kill this monster, you either need your special powers, those who you call mystic arts, or you need to upgrade your weapons to make it embedded in parts of this monster.


    This monster isn''t a natural born one, but artificially made, and its own body is considered a deadly toxin to other monsters like it if the two bodies got in touch together."
