Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 561 Impossible!

Chapter 561  Impossible!

[OP: ]

The place they were in was quite simple in structure, however, it was entirely made three floors under the ground of this sky island, so this was a very fine construction from Eon's point of view.

He was going to make an underground construction of his own, though far better than this place, so seeing this at least gave him an idea of how it would turn out in the end.

[{ Sister Elle is having fun~. Hehe. }]

The two of them were walking down towards their destination but Rein was already ahead of them.

"She is punching and slapping them from the look of these bodies… looks like she really had it tough today."

They were walking through a corridor right now and all around them were bodies of unconscious people, and there were also rooms on both sides of them which were also filled with bodies of unconscious people.

And they were only unconscious, mostly didn't have any visible wounds, and whatever wounds they had were all from their own people or mistakes.

Well, they all sure had red cheeks and dark spots all over their bodies indicating they were punched and slapped so hard that they passed out on the spot and, in a way, this was brutal.

Rein was a floor below them, engaged in yet another battle where her opponents, people welding weapons, and magic wands were shaking with pure horror as they saw the dangerous witch walking towards them.

She was crazy, they knew it by now. They had witnessed the way a single slap or punch from her rendered their people unconscious, and how their magic just disappeared before even touching her.

They didn't know who she was or where she came from and also how she could move so fast that even their eyes couldn't properly keep track of her.

They were all confused, afraid, and angry but they could do nothing before the mighty hands of this unknown brown-haired girl.

"Khaaaaaaaa!"

-Slap.

"Stop! Noooooo!"

-Slap.

"Hauyaaaaaa!"

-Bum!

There were countless of them in a single place, there were countless of them all throughout a single floor.

Their numbers were their greatest power if not the individual talents and strengths that had brought them this far.

But, before this demoness, neither those numbers nor their strength mattered one bit.

They were like a switch, and a single, painful touch (slap) from her was enough to turn them off.

There was chaos all around this place and things were even more chaotic because they didn't have a proper line of communication or command system anymore.

Their signals were blocked, someone had entirely taken over their main system that controlled most of the things, and there wasn't even proper light in some places for them to see the approaching enemy.

They didn't know how this happened, they didn't know what was happening, and they didn't know where their leader had gone.

In a situation similar to this, he would be the first to step forward and give out proper commands.

And under his commands, they all knew they could even take down a (Purple) ranked creature all by themselves.

He was also the strongest among them, but… he wasn't here.

Where was he?!

Where was he right now?!

What could he be doing when a witch was taking out their people like that with that delighted smugness?!

Where was he…?!

[{ There~! Master I found it! }]

Rein was beating them up, the happy smile of delight stuck on her face. Her hands were red from beating them but instead of slowing down, she was increasing her intensity, slapping them harder, sometimes forgetting to control her strength and almost breaking a few jaws.

But she knew her limits, and the limits of her opponents, so Eon wasn't worried about her and looked at the new footage Celes was showing him.

She had found the door to the place his target was hiding, and he could see he had prepared well to make this little hiding place.

It was protected by an entirely different set of systems than the one that maintained this place. And it was stronger too.

He strolled through the place like this was just some normal place and not the hideout of the criminals that had caused great "Not that it is good enough."

He strolled through the place like this was just some normal place and not the hideout of the criminals that had caused great problems throughout this island

They weren't notorious enough to have many killings to their name but the cases of abductions, threats, market manipulation, and such were mainly done by this bunch that called themselves 'reformation instigators'.

Anyway, Eon was walking towards the last floor, Rein was clearing their path, and the target they were approaching couldn't help his anxiety that was growing with each passing moment.

He was on the lowest floor, and he wasn't in the place that was being guarded by the strongest people in his group.

As Lucy had informed him before, his actual location was even below this place in a small area that was covered in a few illusion magic, then by a few layers of defense magic, and connecting everything was a unique kind of magic that gave all those spells a form similar to a cobweb with him as the spider in the center of it all.

It was well made, even Eon admired those skills, but something like that wasn't going to be enough.

They were approaching, and the leader, the real one observing every place of this building with his unique eye ability, was bathing in his warm sweat as he watched the dangerous girl, the girl that was supposed to be only a mage, overpower even the toughest members of his group with no more than a single slap.

Still, he was able to handle the shock given by her actions, but…

"Impossible!"

He could understand what was going on right now.

"Impossible…!"

His special eye ability was called [World's eye] and it was an origin skill he was born with.

He could see anything happening at any place he knew about in real-time. And, he could also tell if the things he was looking at were authentic or just some illusion.

This ability of his had saved him many times in the past, and probably it was the very reason he was able to reach the point he was at right now.

His preparations had almost been completed. He was ready to follow with what he knew was a bad idea, but that was the last thing he could do. And there was nothing in this world that could stop him from doing that.

And there actually was nothing to stop him on this island till a while ago… but then these two came, and he had to follow with his side plans, only to end up in this hell hole…

"But how…?!"

However, he could still not understand one thing.

That boy was here, he was strangely stronger than they had anticipated, he was foolish enough to also give him a golden chance to escape, but…

"That's absurd!"

All the escape routes he had previously prepared were blocked by some unknown power, there was interference with the communication network, the defensive system was destroyed long ago, and the magic spells he had set throughout the building weren't working either.

And while all this was happening, as he looked for the emergency escape routes that only he knew about, a strange figure appeared before his special eye. And this figure was none other than the boy that gave him the absurdly obvious trap-like hope that he could escape from this damned place.

That bastard was smart, he knew that much already, but it was still absurd how he was blocking not one or two but all his twelve emergency exits!

It was absurd and impossible for a single figure to be present in all those places!

And some of those places weren't even properly exist and only some holes that were dug to lead above the ground.

How did he know about these places was the second absurd thing here. How was this little basted present in all those places?!

It was impossible, and all the versions of him that were his exact copies were able to use their powers and techniques so it was even obvious that it wasn't some cheap illusion or simple skill.

It could only be an innate skill or an origin skill that required a shit ton of energy to maintain.

And still! Even the elder mages couldn't maintain this kind of ability for this long where they would have to split their consciousness to maintain all those copies of themselves.

He couldn't understand how he was doing it, but he was certain that all those versions that could see and destroy his eye and wound his mind so many times with so little effort was not something he could defeat if he went out from there.

And, if he actually went out and they found him, it was obvious what they would do to him, so… he believed he was at least safe in this place, which, once again, was nothing more than a hopeless thought.

-Booooooooooom1

He heard an explosion from the sixth-floor gate and hurriedly created another eye to look at what was going on there, and, the scene that met his eyes left him speechless once again.

"Im… possible."

Eon and Rein, both of the bastards that had ruined his years of careful plan now stood before the inner room gate of the sixth floor with the strongest people of their group, the strongest swordsmen, the strongest mages, assassins, healers, everyone of them laying unconscious on the ground.

And he could tell they weren't silenced with some simple slaps or anything but, they were most probably hit by a strong sound wave that directly blocked their blood flow to their brains for a moment.

He knew they must have used some kind of highly powerful high wind attribute magic or skill, but… it was powerful enough to render tens of strong people senseless.

But, that was only the start…

As he watched, and the two of them watched back straight into his eyes, he knew they knew his actual location. And that was the most dangerous situation…

"Shit. Shit shit shit!"

Without waiting a single moment, he took out a very precious high-level teleportation magic scroll from his storage device and tried to activate it.

"Fuck!"

After spending most of their available funds, he could only afford to secure two of these scrolls and, he used the first one to bring these two devils here.

He had to save this last one for another important task, but he had no choice anymore.

The destination of this scroll wasn't set either but, he had to do something to get away from these bastards, or else everything will be over!

His heart was running wild, his eyes couldn't calm down, and his mind was a little calm but there was also chaos clouding most of it.

He was worried they might come there and catch him, and he was afraid he would lose everything he had prepared after doing all those things, he didn't know what he had to do or how he ended up in this situation, but one thing was clear to him…

"You won't be catching me you fucking bustards! You will pay for today!!"

The scroll in his hands started glowing with a bright golden light. He didn't know where he would end up, but he knew any place without the two of them would be better at this moment.

He believed he could escape, he knew as soon as this scroll activates, he will be far away from their grasp and according to their deal, that fucking boy would have to listen to all he would ask of him… fuck! No!

It was all because of that boy, that basted! He was in this state because of him, he had to use a precious item because of him! His pawns were all defeated because of him!

He will have to pay for what he did.

He knew it would take a long time to gather back all his forces but, that wasn't important.

If he gets out of here, he will be able to bring back everything like always and only if he was out of here, he will be abler to bring his love back-

-Ooooooooong!

Suddenly, a strange white light came out of nowhere and pierced right through his scroll, and the activation process was ruined.

"You knew it was futile from the start yet you still persisted… that is some admirable determination, mister Captain Monex."

He heard the most unwanted voice he needed to hear at this moment. And as he looked back from where the voice had rung… the figure of a devil with glowing blue eyes, deeper than he could ever have, and wiser than he could ever hope to have fell on his eyes.

The figure of the monster he didn't want to look ever again now stood before him, announcing his defeat and the end of everything he had built with his sweat, blood, and tears.

"Or… should I call you Miss Monnem Extengia?"

And, it didn't matter to him that he knew about her anymore…
