Chat Group For Magicians

Chapter 49: Impending Attack

When I got home, I felt all of the stress built up in my body was released spontaneously due to the amount I have been carrying earlier. After my confrontation with the campus belle that I still have no idea what the name is, all of the anger and pain I felt were gone. It was like some sort of magical elixir or something.

"Sit back and relax. This effing job of clearing your name is easily done if you just mind wipe them all of that rumors and put a fake memory. BAM! Problem solved!" the voice on the phone said.

"Dumbass, did you forget that I still have a small amount of mana in my body? Even after consuming the Mana Orbs, the amount of mana I got is not that large and I can't cast mind wipe in a widespread area yet? Damn, I am just starting and you want me to do something so complicated already," I groaned as I summoned Yuri and Yuto out. Yuri is the first one to start on her tantrums.

"What a bitch! If I was the one who is in your shoes Master, I may have beaten that woman already! Why are you so gentle to a woman? You shouldn't regard her as someone equal to you Master! She is just a b*tch!" Yuri said as she pouts while still fuming out.

"Although I am not as violent as Yuri since it does not involve the anime, I agree with what she said because that girl earlier is so shameless to ask someone just to beat him. If Master really molested her, then why didn't she feign as a victim? Why is she trying to become the oppressor?" Yuto was calm and collected.

I sighed and leaned on the sofa. With so much trouble that is insignificant such as this, it makes me wonder what the bullies are thinking when they bully someone. Of course, I can't understand because I don't bully anyone. I just retaliate but that doesn't mean it is counted as part of bullying. I am just fighting back. Welp, too much info and yet they are not too useful to me. I decided to just relax and check the chat once more. Although I am not active in the chat, it was much better to pass time rather than idling.

As soon as I opened the general chat, I checked to the time where I left my post in there and I was surprised that they reacted it with a "wow" emoji on the bottom of the photo. After the photo comes to the comments of the fellow magician members of the chat.

...

Titan: Oh, its Kazuma. He is still alive? I thought he was on his way to suicide after soloing the GATES.

Catmod: Lmao. That was a bad @Titan. Don't jinx it. He is still a newbie after all.

Titan: Nah, from the looks of the photo, he is on his way home and from the time he sent it, it was still a bit crowded with ordinary people so he is staying near the entrance of the GATES and is biding his time until the night falls. I think...

Yaya: Oh? So this is the newbie you guys are talking about? Isn't he inside the GATES of Toyosaka Inari Shrine? Did he know that location without asking us?

Tsukoyomi: Now that you mention it, he didn't ask me at all about the GATES. I am the keeper of the catalog of GATES locations and he didn't ask me the location of it. Don't tell me he knows it beforehand? Did anyone tell him about it?

Titan: I didn't.

Moonlight: Don't ask me. I have not entered a GATE for quite a while now and I have not entered that GATE before so no.

Catmod: We have yet to talk so that means its another no.

Yaya: This is the first time I saw the newbie post something here in the chat so I didn't do it. This means he is the one who knew the location beforehand or maybe he discovered it by himself.

Rena: That is very possible. Especially if he is someone who walks around the streets so early in the morning. Otherwise, he might have heard it somewhere.

Raigaki: Eh, I heard that there are pretty girls in there. I think I can find some girls there to flirt with...

(System Announcement: Raigaki has been muted for 3 days: Reason: I don't like him butting in)

Tsugimoto: Maybe this newbie managed to contract something that has the knowledge of this GATE might be the one who allowed him to know the exact location.

Zan: Oh, that is possible. Familiars are all able to give knowledge to their masters. I think I agree with @Tsugimoto.

Money Lover: WAIT, WAIT. Did you just say some sort of impossible feat? Isn't GATES meant to be cleared by a group?! I don't believe he can solo one especially a GATE that has so much danger than usual GATES here in Tokyo!

Jezra: I just logged in and did a backread. I don't think someone like him can solo a GATE! Even us veterans have trouble clearing one alone, moreover him.

Moonlight: I don't think so. Look at his photo once more. See those little balls on his feet? From the looks of it, those are orbs that can only be obtained inside the GATES. Also, to get them, you need to gather shards that are dropped by enemies so that means he already managed to gather so many Orbs. From the looks of the colors emitted by the orbs in the photo, I can identify that those are Mana Orbs and Dark Orbs. If that is the case, he might have done solo this one.

Money Lover: Now that I have taken a closer look at it, it was indeed those orbs. It is not sold in markets since it is so common. But to think I can see him with those orbs made me somewhat reluctant to believe. I mean, he is a newbie, did he became an expert in just a span of days?

Voltaire: Well guys, believe it or not, this newbie of ours has a promising look. Sure, he is weak right now but even without proper magic and proper equipment, he is able to hold off a demon with High Tier. Moreover, he is able to learn magic in just a few seconds. That is already something commendable.

I scrolled past a few messages due to some of the same content and I don't think I need to read them. The chat keeps going on and on until it reached the point where the admin of the chat group, Zacharias posted something.

Zacharias: Everyone in the Tokyo area, please be careful out there. I heard that the demons are going to launch an all-out attack this week. Although I have not grabbed the real date, it should be this week. We will be setting up a mirror world in Tokyo as a lockdown countermeasure for now, while the magicians in the area are going to defend all the civilians. Do not let the demons attack humans openly!

I shook when I read the message. The demons are going to launch an all-out attack?! This is not a joke. I bet it will start manslaughter right now. Looks like it is time to prepare...
