Chapter 3690 Irmatis I

?The Grove

"How are the preparations?" asked the middle-aged half-elf with glowing swirling tattoos across his body, sitting on the wooden chair in the middle of a grove.

"We are steadily capturing the people. If we continue at such speed, we will be able to reach our target weeks before the deadline." Replied the woman, with thin wings.

Like the man, her body is also covered in those swirling shining tattoos.

The man nodded with a smile before his expression turned serious. "Our enemies seemed to have gotten a whiff of it and hunted our members," advised the middle-aged half-elf, but the women just smiled.

She didn't seem to be much worried about it.

"They might be hunting us, but they won't be able to stop us. We have been preparing for it, for over a thousand year and we will succeed," said the woman with confidence oozing from her voice.

"Just be careful. We don't want to make a mistake in our overconfidence," said the man after a moment of silence.

…

"Careful, careful," I said as I harvested an invisible herb.

It is a small herb, that would be invisible to the senses of even Sky Sovereigns. It is due to my abilities and sheer luck, that I could sense it.

Though, harvesting it is another challenge.

I can't remember shortly, that I had needed to be this careful while harvesting the resource, as I am right now.

It is really a challenge to harvest it in such a way, that I could plant it back in my core. Other plants are not these difficult with my expertise, but this one is.

Finally, after one minute and sixty-seven seconds, later, I am finished and sent the plant into my core, before walking out of the underground.

The plant is underground. It is why I said that I had been lucky to find it.

Soon, I walked out and resumed my journey.

A few hours passed, and I reached one of my mid-destinations. Seeing, I couldn't, but sigh and walked away.

Not all the information I have is new. Some of it is old news. Some of the places in that information are still working and full of things, but some have crumbled and turned to dust like this.

I am really disappointed; this place has the things, I need, but looking at its state. I am sure, those things have long disappeared.

Hun!

Over an hour passed, when I suddenly stopped and turned west.

Not far away from me, three people are fighting. A pair of Grey Wolf Beastmen were fighting against the metal-skin woman, with the four arms.

I only watched for a few seconds and seeing it was just a regular fight, I resumed my journey. I couldn't waste my time breaking up every fight.

I might have interfered, if the cultist had been involved. I didn't do so many times; those bastards seemed to be everywhere, but here it didn't seem like.

Hun!

So, resumed my journey, but stopped less than ten seconds later, when I noticed something. Immediately, I increased the power of soul waves and was able to discover them immediately.

There are four people hiding, and their stealth method is so good that it is comparable to the Sky Sovereigns.

I focused on them more and soon, noticed something shocking.

"Irmatis," I muttered, while my mind shook.

There are four people hiding in four directions, and on their bodies are swirling tattoos. These tattoos are nearly the same and shine faintly in power.

It took me a while to calm myself, seeing these four belong to one of the big four cults. Irmatis, also known as Beast Gods Cult or Divine Beasts Cult.

It is one of the most powerful cults in the entire universe. It is a worship-type cult, but the beings they worship are not foreign, but beings born of this universe.

Though they are as bad as the Grimms or Critters.

The beings they worship are a group of Beast Gods. They don't want to follow the rules laid down by the titans. They say these rules are against their very nature.

The people worship them, and in exchange; they share their power with the people. Same as the other cults, but unlike the other cults, the power the divine beast cult provides to its followers is much greater.

This power is also encompassing, it strengthens their core, also their bodies and soul. On top of that, they provide them with powerful abilities.

Like the powerful stealth, they are using right now.

These are not the enemies, that one could deal with easily. Even, I will need to be careful against them, despite my latest advancement.

I moved toward them, of course, I am going to deal against them. I have heard so much about these people and want to see if it is all true. It will be dangerous, but everything is dangerous in a place like this.

I am moving toward the cultist close to me; like three of his friends, he is watching the battle intently.

I am sure, it is preparing to attack them as slowly moving toward the battle.

These cultists may be powerful, but they are cautious. They didn't want to make silly mistakes, which I don't want to do either, despite being very curious about their power.

It took me a little over a minute before I stopped and began my work.

Hun!

I had just started when suddenly a surprise appeared heart. It had shocked me so much, that I had nearly lost control over emotions and power.

Thankfully, I was able to control myself, before things became too late. Still, it is too shocking that my heart is still shaking from what I had just sensed.

I had never sensed it from another individual, and now I had sensed it in the power covering those people. Even books didn't mention it, which isn't surprising, seeing this topic shocking enough, that it shouldn't told to people of my level.

It is for the same reason; the organization hadn't told us about it.

I do not doubt they know about it; this power is clear enough that they should be aware of it, even if most couldn't sense it.

I pushed away those thoughts and focused on the enemy and the three people fighting. Looking at the body language of the four, they seemed to be getting ready.

Well, they should act as quickly as possible; the battle seemed to have reached its peak. The woman with metal skin had an advantage over the two beastmen and had a good chance of killing them.

The cultists don't want that; they want the people that are alive.

The fight between the three is intense, but I am getting a little strange feeling from it. Things aren't as simple as they seemed, and I tried to find out, but couldn't.

Though I feel like, I am close and if I kept looking. I will be able to find out what is bugging me.

Hun!

However, it seemed like the cultists weren't willing to give me the chance as they finally acted.

The tattoos on their bodies flared and they moved toward the three.
