Chapter 330: Time To Plan

After a few more seconds Tiff finally felt another wave of unfamiliar mana pass by and knew their protector had finally arrived. She couldn't help but think what it would be like for her to be the one who was sent down from the sky to fight like this in the future. She had never really been suited to face to face battles but now that she held a Legendary job that could easily change.

Even if it didn't, that didn't mean she couldn't be sent into a battle where she snuck around and tried to get an assassination on one of the Demon Lord subordinates. In the end it really didn't matter how you killed them if you were able to win the fight.

It was really more of her style of fighting anyway and the God of Light said her skills were based off of the ones Akal used and he was supposed to be sneaky like she was. If this was true maybe the future her wouldn't be much different to her right now when it came to how she fought.

"The clash has started. They're pretty far still though so I don't think they know exactly where we are yet." Tiff wasn't that surprised they were having a hard time noticing the cart since it was designed to keep noticeable passengers hidden for a long time. She wasn't the most powerful mage either so the amount of Holy mana around them wasn't as much if one of the other members of the 23 were here instead.

Some time passed with them all waiting for the Oracle to feed them more information. Tiff was guessing the fight was a stalemate like it usually was since there was no news to share but that made her think the next thing the Oracle would say would be about more clouds starting to swirl. freewe(b)novel.com

This ended up being wrong because the next time the oracle opened her mouth was to say. "The God of Metal can't really see ahead of us anymore. We're getting too far from his domain." Tiff hadn't realized oracles worked like this but when she started to think about it it made sense for the gods to try and block others' vision of what was going on in their territories.

She wasn't sure if it worked like that or it was just because they were too far away and the gods vision had limits that had nothing to do with the influence of another god blocking them but she guessed this was something she would learn later into the process of becoming a Demigod.

Right now she hadn't even truly been to the divine realm the gods and Demigods spent most of their time in. What she had gone too was more like an illusion in her mind since her body had never moved from next to the Oracle. This meant she had really only seen what the God of Light had wanted her to.

At one point she had gotten a brief look at some other people who the God of Light told her were Demigods while she had been in the false version of the Divine realm so that made her think she was seeing a realistic version of what the divine realm would be like. It had felt very similar to the world they were in now so she thought maybe there was somewhere else Demigods could go that she didn't know about yet.

When she had been there he had shown her a fake version of the Light domain that were future plans so it wouldn't make sense that the God of Light could see what was going on down here while in the fake version of the world. There was probably a way for them to look down on the world from the sky.

That would be nice if one day she would be able to look down from above to gather information since it was kind of like the Oracles ability which she would be getting for free. There was also just a chance that the gods Perception stat was what let them see what was going on down here and it worked best where there was more of their mana.

It was always fun to try and think what weird effects stats would have once you got them to around one thousand. She had heard you started to get weird abilities at 200 so the things you could do past that had to be crazy.

"Here comes another one." Right after the Temple Head said this Tiff felt another wave of mana that clearly belonged to the other side pass their cart. She wanted to know if the Temple Head had been able to identify what demigod it could be so she asked. "Who do you think that was?"

"I don't know. It seems to be Dark in nature though so it narrows it down a bit." Tiff just nodded and started to picture what the fight probably looked like. She knew the giants were weaker than the actual Demigods but she could base estimates of the Demigods strengths off of what she had seen from the giants in the past.

Lake had been traveling for a while now and he finally saw something he felt was worth stopping for. It was like the city in the Metal Domain in shape but it was a bit smaller. It didn't stop him from wanting to go inside though. He had been meaning to replace all the items he had lost like his ward ring and he was sure he would be able to do so here.

With the ability he had to summon anything he had touched to his hand at any time all he had to do was walk into a shop and touch some stuff before leaving and calling everything he had touched to him. It made stalling easy but it was necessary since he didn't want to get caught without knowing more about what the guards here could do.

He wasn't the only person with overpowered skills and a town this size probably had something or someone that could find him if he was suspected at all. That was even with his skill that made magic unable to track him since it seemed some skills could break the rules of others under certain circumstances.

He also knew items were much easier to track then him so a ring he took could draw anyone to him at any time in the future. This is what had happened with the dagger he was currency retrieving for the people he had taken it from. Tiff had somehow been able to figure out he was in the alchemist guild and brought the issue to Lucas.

The only thing that had saved him was that they had the wrong name and Tiff knew he didn't look like Jon. With that Lake took off his helmet and changed his face into Jon's again before he walked into the city. It had been a while since he had done this but every time he changed his face before doing something illegal had helped him in the long run.

Also a sighting of Jon around the area that he retrieved the dagger from would lend some credence to him actually chasing him down if word somehow ever got back to the Temple Head. He was too far for that to really be possible but you never knew what could happen if he drew a lot of attention while here.

He felt a guy coming into town before stealing everything from a shop in the middle of the day was worth talking about but he would probably have to do something bigger if he wanted it to travel all the way to the Holy Domain.

Once he was actually inside the city walls he started walking around to get a good idea of what this town was like until he made it to the peak of the city. He had been able to tell from a distance that this was something important but wanted to get a good look so he could decide if it was a castle or temple.

In the metal Domain they only had the one big city and at the top there had been giant homes for important families and at the very top there was the massive metal Temple. It was like this because with only one city everyone had to share space but here in the Earth Domain not everyone would have to live in the same city and families probably had their own land depending on how important they were.

Once he got to a wall he couldn't cross he realized he wouldn't be able to get close enough to figure out what this building's purpose was so he stopped someone and asked. "Is this the Temple?"

"No, this is the Shallow city, our temple is built underground. Would you like some directions there?" Lake just shook his head to this offer and asked another question. "What's this then?"

"It's the city's keep. The mayor lives there." Lake was surprised to hear the word mayor because he thought there would be someone like a duke or something but it really didn't matter because it was all he needed to know that if he was to break in it wouldn't be him stealing from a temple which he would be afraid to do.

"Ok thank you." After he said this he walked away because right now he didn't have a way to sneak in and he would need some time to make a plan. Once he was around the corner and could tell no one was paying attention to him anymore he jumped up and found a place where he could get a better look at the walls.
