After traveling through time, I want to become a magical omnipotent saint

Chapter 94: Black River Devil's Cave, Thrilling

The Saint looked up at the members of the guild, each of them wearing white robes, with red beginner flying cloaks draped over their shoulders, kneeling before Isabella.

Isabella reviewed their weapons and equipment, and with the addition of the "Saint's Protection", this team was now invincible below the national level.

Everyone lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Jia Ke, you lead the men's team," Isabella continued to give instructions, "Ya Li will lead the women's team... Erwin collects Jia Ke and Ya Li's message scrolls every day. I will return to the guild when I have time. You will be responsible for conveying the progress of the mission..."

After the task was handed over, Isabella left the guild without telling when they would meet again. Erwin remained the same as always, guarding the guild.

After watching Isabella leave, Alvin wrote a message to President Lingyi.

Inform them both that all guild members are going out to carry out their first meaningful mission.

But there was one thing that puzzled Alvin.

Why doesn't the Saint always send me out on missions? Is my role in the guild just to protect the Saint? But she is very strong, stronger than all of us...

At this moment, everyone in the hall has divided into two groups and started discussing the mission plan.

"Jaco, are we going to be assassins?" Leonard, a dark red-haired human boy, put his right hand in his pocket and muttered, "After we destroy the Flower of Sin, we don't even know where they are..."

"It's definitely not that easy..." said Arthur, the blond boy with a long sword on his back. "Yali suffered a great loss when she first fought against Higanbana. She wants to kill the Flower of Sin more than any of us. If someone with Yali's agility can't kill Higanbana, it will be even harder for us."

"It's not difficult. We have enough manpower and are well-equipped. We are not inferior to the intermediate magicians in the palace. We have the protection of the Holy Envoy and have extremely high defense. We can fight a war of attrition to the end," Kelvin of the werewolf tribe said in a calm tone. "This is the hunting method that our wolf tribe is best at. If you have better suggestions and ideas, you can discuss it."

"Merlin," Erwin asked, "Do you have any good ideas? I am the first one to follow the Saint Lady, and I don't know enough about her. I know clearly that with the Saint Lady's style of doing things, she prefers to complete tasks remotely. If the enemies get close to her, they will not survive the next second..."

"Does it mean that we should act decisively?"

Merlin has been thinking, wagging his tail, looking very uneasy. "It's easy to find the Flower of Sin. We can torture the people who caught them and then follow the clues. With our manpower, it's still difficult to kill a high-level magician remotely. If the other party has the Phoenix Scroll or the Hades Blade, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack to find her next time."

The girls were all anxiously discussing how to act.

"This mission may seem simple, but I always feel that there is a lot of hidden secrets. The location where the magic cave appears is the border between two countries, so there must be forces coveting it..."

The girl who summed this up was the dark elf girl, Liliana.

"The elves, especially those in the Southern Elf Kingdom, value supplies more than any other forces... There are so many strange monsters in the Demon Cave, what is there to rob? If we secretly disrupt the elves' forces... won't it be easier afterwards?"

"What are you analyzing?"

Yali glanced at Liliana with disdain: "Our mission is to monitor the Demon Cave. The Saint Lady will personally take action when the time comes. We will all take turns to scout at a distance. It will be fine as long as we can observe the Demon Cave without being discovered by others."

Selena, an elf girl from the Southern Elf Kingdom, felt as if she was being influenced by the dark elves.

"Liliana, are you still an elf?" Selina asked, "How could you do something that would harm the elves?"

Liliana closed her eyes and shook her head, "We are the Saint's people, and we are all homeless. Apart from that, we are all outsiders. There are also humans who kill each other. Why don't you condemn it, Miss Elf with a strong sense of morality? What do you think?"

"Sorry, no..." Selina blushed and felt a little guilty. "You guys discuss it. I'll just follow your instructions."

The cat-like girl, Ariana, shook her tail, half covered her mouth with her hands, and said, "This time it's a secret observation mission. There will always be blind guys who find us. The key is to consider how to avoid being exposed, right? Meow?"

Fiona, the blonde lion-clan demihuman girl, also agreed and said, "Yeah, what Kitty Yana said is right, we have better vision at night, and I, the cat family, don't like to work during the day. Those of you who work during the day should find a vantage point nearby to monitor."

Yali said angrily: "Can anyone give me some advice? Is there no one like Merlin?"

"It's not a big problem," Avril nodded. "Since the Saint Lady asked you to lead the team, you should be more confident and make a clear action plan based on our situation."

“Yes…” Yali put her hands on her hips, “Avril is still the best person to talk to. She is also a half-elf girl… After you have agreed on the work arrangement, don’t change it easily!”

After the women's group finished their discussion, they were the only ones left in the hall...

In late April, the morning breeze was refreshing. Isabella and Kokoro continued to practice swordsmanship and spar with Erwin. Whenever their swords collided, they exchanged a few brief whispers.

Communicating the work progress of the two groups.

"...Miss Baileyna, it's almost time. I should go home."

After watching Erwin leave, Isabella rested for a long time. Most of the Sin Flower had been found, and the Red Spider Lily also smelled the scent of the magic cave and ran to the border area...

The girls hid well and kept watch on the magic cave. The place was guarded by the Dragon Riders and the 30th Knights from the border of the Oberic Empire, and the edge had spread to the border of the southern kingdom of the elves.

The armies of the two countries have been stationed nearby, and both sides have been sending envoys to each other to discuss the sovereignty of the Demon Cave.

But the location of that demon cave was very tricky. It appeared from the territory of the empire, and the opening kept collapsing towards the southern kingdom of the elves...

On the roadside, a plain open carriage arrived at the door of the house. A blonde woman, with a pretty face and a strong body, appeared.

She was wearing a red and white long-sleeved dress and a black feather hat. After getting off the carriage, she led the horse into the front yard.

Isabella's magical sensing revealed that her magical strength was at the intermediate second level, and she used earth element magic.

Butler Charlie happened to be in the front yard. He came over and said calmly, "Welcome back, Madam..."

She took a few quick steps, almost running over, and picked up Kokoro, burying him in her arms, followed by Isabella...

After using the facial cleanser, Isabella realized that this woman was her mother who was out doing business and transporting goods...

"I haven't seen you for a few months. You've grown taller..."

Heloda was also very simple, the two of them just hugged each other.

In memory, the original owner could never remember his mother's name clearly.

"Zayna Chein..."

Isabella whispered her mother's name.

After a brief celebration, Heloda confided Isabella's various performances during this period, especially in the field of lightning magic, and suggested sending her to Briffin College in the royal capital of Avilato.

"...I didn't expect that after a few months of separation, Isabella has made such rapid progress and has such talent," Zaina said while holding Isabella's face, "I'll personally take you to Briffin College and find some Chamber of Commerce along the way so that you won't be late... Have you stopped playing around recently? You have a little bit of a scholarly air, like a magician who is learning..."

Isabella nodded and agreed: "Okay, yes..."

After today's big celebration dinner, at midnight...

Isabella heard the sound of applause while she was half asleep.

"...Hailuda, you are still so energetic!"

"I've been holding it in for a long time these days..."

"That's amazing... Slow down, the noise is too loud and Isabella will hear it!"

Isabella couldn't stand her parents' fickleness, so she opened a space gap and went to the guild hall.

Today was the same, neither group had any big gains. Ling Yi was there too, packing up the draft scrolls she had bought from somewhere...

"In the future, we have to recruit some scroll masters and dwarf weapon builders. Phew..." Ling Yi moved the materials out of the space crack one by one. "Last time, I asked Shui Xi to go to Leonton City to buy magic armor. It is expected that we will have to recruit more mercenaries by the end of the year. They must be completely trustworthy..."

Isabella took a deep breath and said in a calm tone: "How can there be such a busy guild leader? You and Shui Xi have been in Saint Go City for so long, haven't you made friends with others?"

"Miss Isabella, do you know what you are asking?" Ling Yi said with a wry smile, "Make friends with a national-level magician? They are all intermediate level two, and the third level is the cap. As long as we don't go to them in person, they will avoid us. This is the fear of the weak towards the strong. I also have to remain mysterious at all times. I don't care how Shui Xi shows up..."

"You can try to make friends with someone who is emotionally silent and has a cold personality..."

"No," Ling Yi refused. "I'm in Shengge City. Everyone I see looks like a spy sent by the Almighty Eye. They may also be spies from the neighboring lord. As for the mercenaries, I plan to let Shui Xi recruit them from the Dragon Clan Kingdom..."

"Ling Yi... do you hope to make it foolproof this time? There will always be low-level labor for the guild and strongholds in the outside world."

"I will consider those matters after I conquer the entire Northern Elf Territory..."

Isabella clearly felt that Ling Yi still harbored great hatred towards the Almighty Eye.

The incident at the Black River Demon Cave had already reached the royal capital, especially the ears of the nobles and officials in the palace.

The kingdom felt that the location of this demon cave was within the empire and under the empire's management, so it was necessary to take a tough attitude.

Send three more groups of nearby knights and two groups of dragon riders.

The king also noticed that the Almighty Eye had suffered too many inexplicable losses, so he reorganized the original parliamentary system into a team leader autocracy, making Zawaon Wade the chief of the Almighty Eye and concurrently the leader of Group A.

An hour later, the team leaders' meeting...

Zewaang was well-dressed and said to the group leaders present: "I'm sorry, everyone. From now on, I will have the final say in the Almighty Eye. Don't worry, I won't make excessive demands on you. You all know how I deal with people..."

"Okay, okay, got it, Mr. Chief Zevaang," Asadolon of Group B said in a drawn-out voice, "Have you thought of a way to deal with the Demon Cave? Some of our Group B members are nearby. The people of the Southern Elves are shameless. Some elves have already gone deep into the Demon Cave!"

Zevaang covered his mouth with his fist and coughed dryly.

"They are shameless, so we should follow them. We can't let others take advantage of us first..."
