That day''s battlested all day, I was happy that I was able to use the Teleportation Portal to reach this city when I woke up this morning, but the reality that hit me when the same Teleportation Portal was destroyed leaving me in a city locked in a intense battle makes me frustrated.
With that I spent the whole day fighting, the morning parts were the worst since many attacks from other fights in the surroundings wereing towards me, and because of that, there was a moment where I even lost a hand when it was incinerated by a ray of fire.
As the fight continued untilte afternoon many Adventurers were descending from the sky exhausted and injured, I didn''t have much time to rest at that time as more monsters kepting.
As a Vampire, I could use blood to recover my energies or heal myself, so I couldst inbat steadily without rest, the same can be had from my Vampire children at least.
Silvia, who was a Dragon, said she could feed on the energies of nature itself, H fed on the vitality of her victims, Ivan was a Living Dead that never tires, Athena was and her group were also Vampires, as such they were learning as this was advantageous inbat, Vanessa was being assisted by healing or inbat as needed.
My Familiars are using my energy reserves as their own to keep me inbat, which only increases the burden on me.
I even had to summon other people from the Dungeon like Sophia, Samira, Elsaris, Sapphire, Lilian, Barok, Erica who had recovered, and Eva the Blood Demon Queen.
It brought everyone to fight because it was getting harder and harder as the Adventurers slowed down, this continued until night fell.
At that moment I saw hundreds of peopleing across the sky in the distance, when they got closer I saw that they were raising the g of the Adventurer''s Guild.
When they arrived they went straight intobat and I ordered all mypanions to retreat and return with me to the Guild.
----------
When we arrive at the Guild I see that all the civilians I had seen before are gone, all who are here now are Adventurers with destroyed armor, covered in wounds, and some even missing a limb, there was also a corner where dozens of individuals were lying with sheets whites covering the body, I could imagine that they are those who fell inbat.
I walk past them heading straight for the room where I left Nicole earlier this morning, meanwhile telling the others to stay here with the other Adventurers.
Vanessa and Irina could heal some of the injured, H and Jade could help the poisoned ones while Erica took care of those with some simple curse, if she couldn''t help then Vanessa could use her Holy power.
Leaving that part of the Guild for them to help or rest as they wish, I head upstairs where I find Nicole still surrounded by her bubble of holograms.
Guild Master Dargon was facing a holographic wall full of screens giving Nicole various orders, but when I arrived I warned by touching her shoulder.
She doesn''t look at me as she continues to do something, but the Guildmaster stops talking, and in a few minutes Nice stops.
"Break time." (Nicole)
"Wee back, Dad." (Nicole)
"How''s it going?" (I)
"A waste of time, I spent all day in this room helping as you asked, I hope you give me the materials for my research as a rewardter?" (Nicole)
"Only after Rakan and Nira approve, did we talk about thisst time." (I)
"Good thing I have a n B." (Nicole)
I get a little confused before looking at the Guild Master.
"What did she order?" (I)<novelnext> </novelnext>
"A fair reward for her contribution, which was greater than all of you fighting." (Dargon)
"Brain is always a better answer than brawn..." (Nicole)
"Nicole!?" (I)
"..." (Nicole)
"I take it she didn''t take cash." (I)
"Said something about being useless to her, asked for a list of materials to choose from after everything was finalized." (Dargon)
"Okay then, the Guild is meant to reward Adventurers for their hard work, so I don''t see a problem." (I)
"I said the same thing to her." (Dargon)
The Guild Master sits down as he exins to me about what he''s been up to with Nicole, it looks like the entire town has already been evacuated, so only the Adventurers fighting the monsters remain.
It seems that Nicole has also been taking regr breaks to keep herself up and running, 10 to 20 minute breaks at a time.
I look at her sitting in a chair with her eyes closed like a doll without energy.
"Without her help, many more people could have died." (Dargon)
He exins to me how they managed to direct rescues to avoid areas where heavy fighting was taking ce or where powerful monsters were roaming.
In addition, they were able to direct Adventurers to areas where monsters were being let loose, they were also able to see when Adventurers were about to be defeated and sent other Adventurers nearby as reinforcements.
It looks like Nicole was really helpful, but from what I saw when I walked in, Guild Master Dargon didn''t just sit around and do nothing, he actively worked with Nicole.
"Are these Adventurers who just arrived the reinforcements you were hoping for?" (I)
"No, they''re from the nearest town, I managed to get a message to them earlier, but they only got through now." (Dargon)
"Before you arrived I was directing them around town using the Familiars you left with young Nicole." (Dargon)
"Do you n to let them fight alone?" (I)
"Yes, they will fight during the night while the other Adventurers heal, rest, and prepare to return tobat during the morning, let''s keep shifts to keep the battle constant." (Dragon)
Soon he exins to me that in order to prevent damage to other nearby cities, he wants to keep the situation under control here, he doesn''t want to give the monsters a chance to spread to the surroundings.
Now that he has no more civilians in the city, he''s thinking about stepping up thebat.
I spend a few more minutes talking with Guild Master Dargon and Nicole before joining the others downstairs and beginning our own preparations.
