I will have to go personally to verify what happened.
-Bella, I entrust you with the recruitment, I want the troops to be at the border waiting for new orders-
-As you order-
Then use teleportation to go to the location of the spatial distortion.

Geranium City.
It was a city located south of the empire's capital, it was the place where the distortion occurred.
I was currently inside the city with the appearance of a blond boy of about 5 years old.
I was walking through the city until I came to the entrance of a mansion, more specifically the mansion of the lord of the city.
-Here was the distortion…-
I muttered while looking at the grand mansion from outside.
This goes against what I said before, but I have to be careful with whatever they summoned so I have no choice.
I approached one of the guards outside.
-Excuse me, sir-
The guard gave me a look and went back to his business.
-I want to enter…-
-Long!-
Intimidating me, the guard took out his sword and pointed it at me.
-B-But I have something important to tell Mr.-
-I won't say it again, long…-
Before he could finish I moved at high speed and touched him.
-Take me inside-
-Right away-
Making a small wave he led me inside.
The other guards looked at him strangely, but did not stop him.
This guard is probably someone important.
We walked inside the mansion until we reached a door.
-Mr. Geronimo, someone wants to see you-
No one answered so the guard entered.
-Sir, this child wants to see you-
-Don't you see I have guests?! Long!-
Seeing the lord's guests I could hardly contain my smile.
So it's them… this is a lucky break.
-Go away-
I dismissed the guard and went inside.
-Who are you?-
The lord went on the defensive, the surrounding guards drew their swords and pointed at me.
I quickly touched the man and went back to my place.
-Everyone, come out, leave me with them-
-You heard it, come out!-
The lord along with the confused guards came out.
-Hello… general and officers-
-Who are you?-
In front of me there were 5 people, all dressed in green clothes and carrying firearms, they were soldiers.
-I'm just a little boy who crossed here-
I said with a smile.
-I imagine they are confused, after all, they were summoned recently-
I said slowly.
-How about if they tell me what they were talking about with Mr. Geronimo-
-Perhaps... are you someone from the empire?-
-Yes, it could be said that I am someone of a higher rank than Mr. Geronimo-
-Okay, although I don't believe you, it doesn't matter if I talk to one person or another-
You saved yourself from mind control my friend.
-Mr. Geronimo was requesting our help to fight the demons-
-Oh, and they accepted?-
-Not yet, we are thinking about whether it suits us or not-
-Interesting… how many were summoned here?-
-The entire base, we are about 5,000 soldiers-
God… I won the lottery.
-Those strange weapons of yours… how many do you have?-
-We have 34 M1 Abrams tanks, 5 AH-64 Apache helicopters and 2 F-16 fighters, apart from that each soldier is equipped with an M16A2 rifle and a 9mm pistol-
Wow, although I am not very knowledgeable on the subject even I know those weapons.
-I don't know what you're talking about but it sounds powerful, how about you join me?-
I said ignorantly.
-The Iue Empire offered us its full support to our troops, what do you offer us?-
-Well, I also offer you my greatest support…-
-That's the same thing they offered us, it doesn't have anything special…-
-And I also offer you the help of the best craftsmen to repair and recharge your weapons, I imagine they are limited, right?-
The general was silent, probably surprised that I know what they need.
-How do you know we need to recharge?-
-Because I don't feel magic in you, so logic tells me that your weapons are like bows and arrows, that with each shot you lose ammunition-
I made up an excuse on the fly, although seeing their faces I know they believed it.
Can you give us some time to think about it?
-Clear-
Time passed slowly, the military discussed the pros and cons of my offer.
After a while they turned to me and said.
-I, General Smith, and my officers accept-
I'm glad we reached a deal.
With a smile I took her hand.
-Are you OK? You are sweating-
It seems they noticed.
-Y-Yes, I'm just holding back some mice-
Sweat was running down my forehead, it seems I can't contain it anymore.
-Go back to your base, I'll see you there in a while-
-Alright…-
In disbelief, the soldiers left the room.
-Uff... containing 10 archmages is exhausting-
That's right, from the moment I entered the mansion until now, I had restrained the archmages in charge of summoning the military.
-If they had been with all their power... I can't imagine-
The reason why I was able to hold them off so easily was because they had exhausted their magic power in the summoning.
Well, get rid of them.
Using the least amount of magic possible, I teleported to the basement of the mansion.
-Hello friends-
I said with a smile to the archmages.
-So you locked us up, let us go!-
Said one of the archmages as he cast a spell against the barrier.
-Hey hey, that exhausts my magic, calm down-
-Let us out!-
As if to annoy me they started casting spell after spell.
-Shit…-
My head started to hurt.
-Well, die-
I said as he began to cast a spell.
eternal ice!
Little by little the archmages were losing mobility until they finally stood still, some time later they were completely frozen.
The horrified expressions on their faces said it all.
-See you never-
With an earth spell I shattered the ice they were trapped in.
