Chapter 46 - Stop it no matter what

The decision is already been made. The nation that is mention by the chairman is the nation that has an agreement with Arugos Kingdom. Rudy, as the guild master gave them proof enough to blame the other nation. In the proposal that Rudy gave to the other, there's a name of the country that in an agreement with Arugos Kingdom to share the treasure that they will found in the ruin. The proposal is stated that the other nation too will have their research team go to that ruin first before the join expedition team. It was weird why did Rudy give them permission? If he gave them permission isn't there will be a crack in the alliance of the Ethereal Continent? If the other 5 nations prosper because of the treasure isn't that the other 5 nations will be left behind? Or maybe it will be devoured by the other, if Rudy knows this why did he give them permission? It's really mysterious as to why Rudy gave them permission.

But later then, Rudy gave me the answer As to why Rudy gave them permission. Is because Arugos kingdom has the half of the other nation in the Ethereal Continent permission, in the Ethereal continent there's 10 nation in total, 4 of them is in agreement with Arugos Kingdom. with this the guild master can't say no to them, other nations already gave the consent after all. The guild is only the neutral organization they will not join the political act of any nation their job is to control the circulation of monster, business, and to meditate, that is the primer job of the guild. They can't refuse the proposal from Arugos Kingdom, the guild position will be in a tight spot if they refuse or agree with it. After calculating the pro and cons, in the end, he gives them permission because Rudy didn't have any good reason to deny it.

"Then, with this, I believe our discussion is already ended. next, we will discuss another topic…"

Chairman then decided their discussion already ended they will now discuss another problem in the city.

"We will discuss the survival of this city. Rudy are you already give an order to the adventure and the army?"

"It's already done, I already give them an order. I decided that the second wall will be our evacuation era, the adventure and the soldier began the evacuation."

"Our soldier have evacuated the people outside the wall, we too as the request of the guild master we empty all of our barrack, the catapult, multiple ballista, ballista, and explosive material, the guild master said that we will use all of it"

The commander of the soldier Charlotte gave the information about the current situation.

"All of it?"

"Yes, All of it"

"Rudy, can you give us the detail?"

The chairman then asked Rudy for the detailed information.

"Yes, now I will explain it. The reason why I need all of it is that the scale of the attack of the flood is preceding our capability, the beast we fought right now I doubt we can handle it… for the detailed information I will give the explanation to Sir Alcott."

Rudy then gave Alcott chance to speak.

"Thank you, now I don't know if the information that I give will be detailed but I will describe the capability of the beast that we face right now."

All of the people in the room become serious.

"The beast that we faced right now, is a humanoid type, his size is gigantic, the height of that beast is approximately 15 meters. That beast didn't have any head."

"Didn't have any head?"

"Yes, that beast didn't have any head, but the beast have a vertical mouth shaped. His spine is stand out backward. And for the weapon of that beast, he has a … a heated rays attack, the gigantic size of his hand, the skin of that monster is to thick or maybe is hard to pierced by any magic because when my party used high-grade magic eradicate lightning, our best attack, we still can't pierce that monster body it only leave a scratch on him"

Heated rays attack? Oh, maybe what he means is a laser.

"Hou? The Eradicate lightning can't pierce it?"

The one who asked is the vice-chairman.

"Yes, as we know, eradicate lightning is magic that used heat as the lightning source to eradicate anything, to think that beast can stand that attack…. I can't imagine how hard his skin… and to make it worse, that beast's main weapon is… he can control all the monster including the high ranked monster."

When Alcott said that the beast can control the monster, all of the people in the room then make a fuss.

"What!!??"

"Impossible!"

"You're Joking, right!?!?"

"there's no way a high-rank beast can control another beast!!"

All of them are surprised, they make a terrified face at the same time.

"Everyone calm down, calm down"

The chairman tried to calm down the other

"Sir Alcott, are you sure that monster can control the monster including the high one?"

"Yes, if you don't believe it, I bet you will see that monster in the flood attack, I believe"

The other is terrified of the fact that there's beast can control another beast, it's impossible to control the beast since they have their own mind and consent, the high-rank beast has the intelligence and greater instinct, to control the beast you must have the consent and break their instinct, but to achieve it, it's near impossible.

"That beast is not in our list of the dangerous monster, neither there's a record of that beast. That beast was completely new. We didn't have any detailed information of that beast, and that's why Rudy and I believe we will not any chance to win if we didn't use all of our resources…"

"But even if we use all of our resources, did you think we can win? It is more makes sense if we abandoned the city and Join subjugation with other nations?"

Karman then gives an option. Oh, now that he said it, there's that option too, even though it was the last option.

"Stupid, if what Sir Alcott says is true then, if we abandoned the city now and let that monster destroy it, we only give him time to gather more monster. the next time that monster attacks another city the flood will become more bigger, and it will be harder to subjugate that monster, our best choice right now is to hold that monster in here and wait until the help arrives."

What Charlotte says is true. The ability of that beast is too terrifying. The beast that can control the other monster, we can't give him a rest, no matter what, the more that monster go further the more monster will be in his control, our only option is to kill that beast before it can become more terrifying.

"But is as Karman said, even if we use all of our resources can we win again that beast? I want to hear from the guild master itself"

Without any delay then Rudy answer.

"To be honest I don't know if we can kill that beast or not, we just need to survive until the help arrives, but even with all of our resource I believe there will be a huge casualty and maybe the monster will break to the first wall, I can't ascertain that we can save the city and survive… I believe we just have a 20% chance to win and survive against that beast"

All the eyes look at Rudy. All the people can't say anything they just thinking 20% chance of survive is too small, you can say that there's a big chance that we will die against that beast even though we use all the resources we have. The chairman then speak.

"I don't care if it only just 20%. As long as we can stop that beast in this city until the help arrives, even if you use anything in our city, I will permit it, that beast is a threat to the world future and is more dangerous than any nation in this world thus we must eradicate it no matter what!!"

After the chairman said that, all of the officials then agreed with him they realize what the chairman said is the truth, that beast is more dangerous than any nation in the world.

"Rudy, I permit you to use any resource that we have you don't need afraid of the budget, as long as the city survives we can still have anything that we want."

The chairman gives Rudy the answer that he wants. Rudy then answer

"Yes, I will do to my best abilities!!"

"Good"

The chairman gives him light smile to his answer.

"Oh, I have other things that I want to tell chairman, I want to report of our army and the information"

"Our army currently there's 2000 soldier, 150 of them are magician some of them can use advance magic and the rest of the soldier they can only use the body reinforce magic"

The one who answers is charlotte.

"As for the adventure we only have 1126 people, about 871 adventure can really use magic, the rest is same as a normal soldier they can use body reinforce magic"

Rudy replied. Well, this is the frontier adventure city, I can understand why there are many adventures in this city.

"So currently we only have 3126 people that can fight and 1021 of them can use magic, huh? Can you tell me the details of adventure force?"

"Yes, we have 2 S rank Adventure in the city, 134 A Rank Adventure, 189 B rank Adventure, 308 C rank Adventure, 390 D rank Adventure that much should be enough to handle the flood and for the soldier I want 150 soldiers are placed in the other three gates."

The gate that we will be guard is in the south gate because the attack comes from the south gate.

"150? Is that okay Rudy? We just have 2000 soldiers you know. If you give that much to the other gate the soldier that we have only 1250"

"It's okay, I just want them to be on alert if something bad happens. The job of the soldier is to try to reduce the monster from far away and the one who slips from the adventure, the rest is to protect the gate and the wall from the monster that wants to come in into the city. The job to exterminate the monster is adventure job, after all."

"Ooo… I see I understand now, then we will take the rear okay?"

"Yes, that was for the best"

"if it already decided then.."

Chairman wants to finish the meeting, then someone comes in, to the meeting room, it was Arsya
