Chapter 548: Introducing Our New Member
Getting an artificial master level mage as our ally is a great addition. Though our expert level mages are stronger than the cult’s artificial master level mage, it’s still a great help for Iris to join us.
After getting her join us, Albert asked her some more questions. And then we let the Professor to talk with Iris, but it seems like it wasn’t necessary. She hated him for experimenting on their son even if that’s the only way for the boy to recover.
If only the medical knowledge of this world has advanced just ten years into the future, she could just ask any reputable surgeon to operate on her son. And she doesn’t need to go to the cult to ask for help.
After hearing Iris’ report on her son’s condition, I can tell what his illness was, and I could heal him by performing surgery. Though it happened a few years ago, even before I returned back in time.
But now, other than me, I have taught several doctors and surgeons on how to cure this illness. And we should be able to heal more people in the future. It’s good that I decided to teach the doctors and surgeons about medical knowledge in the future. This way, once the knowledge spread all over the continent, no one would go to the cult to ask for their help in curing their loved ones.
Well, as for Iris, she went to her husband whom she had separated with a long time ago. And she said that she has gone to many different hospitals and clinics before finally giving up and had no choice but to ask her husband.
If only I got returned back to when I was five... Wait, if I’m just a five years old kid, no one would believe me. I should be glad that I got returned back in time for my magic aptitude to be tested anyway.
.....
Imagine a five years old kid telling an old doctor that he can learn more from the five years old kid. No one would believe that.
Anyway, it’s time to go to the fourth base. Although it will still be a few hours until the mohawks arrive there, it’s best to let her know some people there first.
Maybe I’ll go to the fifth base before so I can introduce her to those who are on standby there. And then I will go to the fourth base.
I won’t let her escape my sight. Even if Albert said that she didn’t say any lies, it’s best to keep watching her under my watch.
But before that, we need to do something first.
I told Sonia to relay a message to Lina to prepare something for me. And after a while, Sonia returned to tell me that it has been prepared. And I opened a portal to Lina’s location.
“Thank you, Lina. That was quick,” I said as I received something from her that I asked for.
Lina smiled as I thanked her, and when she looked behind me to see everyone there, she realized my intention in why I asked her to get this thing.
“So that’s why Master asked me to get it,” Lina said.
“You’re not going to ask me about it?” I asked.
“A maid only needs to obey her master. And you’re not just my master. There’s no need for me to ask for your intention. I just need to believe you,” Lina said.
She’s so great! What a lovely maid I have!
Before I closed the portal, I hugged her tightly and said my farewell.
After I closed the portal, I threw the thing I got Lina to get to Iris.
“Wear it. With that thing on, at least no one will be hostile to you right away. Oh, and here. A purple bandana. Wear it as well on your arm to show that you’re our ally,” I said.
I didn’t just throw the thing I got from Lina. I also threw her a purple bandana which is the proof that she’s our ally.
“This...” Iris grabbed the thing I gave to her, and then with one hand, she’s touching the bald side of her head.
“I wonder how you can walk around with that hairstyle,” I said.
“Obviously, it’s not because I want to. It’s the side effect of the experiment. And no matter how long I waited, they won’t grow back,” Iris said.
The thing I gave to her was a wig. A wig with the same color as her hair.
Even if I want to introduce her to the others, just by having a mohawk as her hairstyle will raise their vigilance toward her.
Because of the cult, the soldier’s perspective of mohawk hairstyle is that they are enemies that must be killed. That’s why she needs to wear a wig.
I didn’t just gave her the wig and the bandana. I also gave her a Blobby. That Blobby will be hidden under the wig and will be the glue to make sure her wig will stay there and unable to be removed.
After that, I move to the fifth base with her to introduce her. And then, we moved to the fourth base.
I told the others that Iris is our new members and she’s very strong. But for our key players, the generals, my friends, and some expert level mages who are here after losing the tournament, I told them the truth.
“Can we trust her?” Sara asked.
“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure that she never leave my sight. And also, we have her son in our custody. She won’t do anything that will threaten her son’s life,” I said.
“That’s what a kidnapper said. Well, if you say so. Anyway, what’s her element?” Celestine asked.
“I have lightning element that has reached master level artificially, and healing magic that has reached advanced level. But please don’t make me use all my mana. I still want to live to see my son,” Iris said.
Of course I told everyone here how she will die if she spend all her mana. That’s why even though we have new powerful ally, we won’t ask her too much.
“I will get an angel to fly with her. And Iris will only attack using AoE lightning magic toward the place where the enemies are more concentrated at. That’s the only thing she will do. But if she does anything else, I have told the angel to drop her to her death,” I said.
If Iris does anything suspicious, I’ll get the angel to fly higher and drop her to her death. If the angel didn’t fly high enough, with her improved physical strength, she should be able to live. Even if her bones are broken, she’s a healer. She can heal herself. That’s why it needs to be an instant death for her.
“By the way, you look familiar,” Iris asked Celestine.
Well, of course she seems familiar. Celestine was a faction leader when she was at the cult.
And Celestine’s reply was simple. Her hands reached the hook of the flattening bra on her back and removed it. Even though there are men in this room, she doesn’t seem to care as her boobs are now free. Though it was just for an instant before she fixed her bra, the generals and the male expert level mages we have get nosebleed from the unexpected situation.
“Oh! It’s you! I thought you were dead. It seems like you joined this side,” Iris said.
“Just like how you joined the cult because of your son, I left the cult because of the orphans I am taking care of,” Celestine said.
“...Is it that difficult to recognize Celestine from her face? She’s a beautiful woman, so it’s not impossible, right?” I said.
“My breasts have more impact,” Celestine said.
I believe that. I have seen that. And once the cult is destroyed, I can feel that. But that’s only if she still remember her promise. My harem members will increase once the cult is destroyed.
After introducing Iris, I take a short nap. I have used portals several more times more than I expected thanks to Iris. But at least we got a new powerful member. Even if she can only help us occasionally.
When I woke up, the enemies still haven’t arrive yet. We had our meals while we waited.
After filling our bellies, we finally detected the enemies. They are finally here.
With no more children in their rank, we can go all out and fight however we want. Our goal is to kill as many enemies as possible so we will have easier fight in the fifth base where we will completely obliterate them all.
This is the first full fight against the enemy which only has mohawks in their rank without my ears being covered. I can use all my senses and fight without restraint from the start.
“What? You have problems with me making sound effects? I thought I made a good job,” Victoria asked.
“No, that was annoying. And now that I’m free from your sound effects, I feel much better. Well, let’s go, Victoria!”
