On the third day of the festival, it was already the second sleepless night for everyone, it seems that people don't know the meaning of the word tiredness.
I didn't want to dance anymore, I also had my stomach full of delicious food, so I walked away to enjoy the view, I was on top of a tree seeing that colorful and light-filled scene with everyone having fun, and a smile forms in my face.
"Looks like you're having fun." (Luth)
I look to my side and to my surprise, the World Tree spirit was sitting next to me watching the festivities as well.
"I'm surprised to see you so far from your body." (I)
"I can go anywhere on this continent I want, but it affects the ongoing purification and harmonizing of energies, so I don't normally do that." (Luth)
"But the village isn't far away, so it doesn't matter if I come here, so I like to drop by sometimes and see people." (Luth)
"Luthien is not with you?" (I)
"She must be pretending to be a kid down there at the party somewhere." (Luth)
"You should also go downstairs to enjoy the party." (I)
"I already did that, you even danced with me, don't you remember." (Luth)
"..." (I)
The World Tree spirit passes its hand in front of its face completely changing its appearance to that of a normal Elf woman with a sweet smile, I remember this Elf also pulling me to dance yesterday.
Then she passes her hand in front of her face again and her appearance returns to normal.
"This body you're seeing is just a materialization of energy, it's not an actual physical body, so I can shape it to whatever appearance I want." (Luth)
"Why do so many people want to dance with me, even Luthien pulled me to dance on the first day." (I)
"It was because she did that that they all started doing the same, seeing their eyes I didn't dare say no." (I)
"Stop complaining, you know you had fun too." (Luth)
Sigh
"Yes it was a lot of fun, I wish this moment would last forever." (I)
I look up at the starry sky above my head and images of everything I've been through in this world flash through my head.
"Since I came into this world, there have been few times I've been able to have fun and relax like these three days." (I)"Most of the time I was involved in battles or had some plan in place, I also know that more situations like this will happen in the future." (I)
"You are a Vampire, your life if no one kills you will be very long, you will have many opportunities to live days like today." (Luth)
"Otherwise you can just create these days, you're building a city, so have whatever festivities you want." (Luth)
"You're right, I have to learn to stop thinking too much about the future, that's a bad habit of mine." (I)
After a few more minutes of conversation, the spirit of the World Tree disappears as I head back to enjoy the end of this festival.
----------
The next day people were sleeping on the tables or on the floor, everyone was tired, and the once lively village was silent with only the sound of people breathing.
I wanted to be asleep too, but I was being suffocated by a mountain of Fairies and Spirits sleeping on top of me, I had to hide inside my shadow to get out without waking them up.
I didn't understand why all these Spirits and Fairies were on top of me until I noticed that Orion wasn't with me, he was responsible for completely hiding my Aura so that wouldn't happen.
I look around and see Orion back to his great normal appearance, he had his head inside a barrel of liquor as he lay sleeping, Lilith and Hela were lying beside him using his wings as a blanket.
I leave him sleeping for today and look around, I find a girl sitting on the branch of a tree smiling at the landscape of people sleeping.
"Why are not you sleeping?" (I)
"I've already slept, I don't get tired as easily as you do, so I wanted to enjoy some silence." (Luthien)
"Today is going to be a big hangover for everyone." (I)
"I know, but they'll have to be fine for tomorrow to start preparing for the Annual Monster Wave, looks like it's going to happen within 5 days from today." (Luthien)
"Do you think it will be okay?" (I)
"Yeah, I won't be able to help as I'll be too busy with the World Tree trying to harmonize this crazy energy." (Luthien)
"But with you and your followers here it will be much easier to take care of this, I just hope as few people as the possible die, I don't like to see my people die." (Luthien)
"Don't worry, Sakura will help rescue people who aren't in a fighting condition, she's very good at it." (I)
"You've been a big help since you arrived, thank you." (Luthien)
"Don't thank me, you also know my intentions aren't completely pure to do all this." (I)
"I know, but it doesn't change the end result and for that I thank you." (Luthien)
----------
Just as I imagined that day after the end of the festival was full of people having a bad hangover, in addition, many people were so tired that they couldn't even go home alone.
It was an interesting scene to watch, but the next day everyone started moving, weapons were undergoing last-minute maintenance to make sure they were in battle condition.
Mages were in preparation for ritual barrier spells or large-scale attacks, the archers positioned their tokens close to where they stood.
Traps started to be set up around the village, the village has always been in the same place, the spatial barrier around the village just transports the person to the other side while a barrier of disorientation confuses people's minds not to notice the difference in distance, but with such a large number of monsters, the space barrier won't handle it.
That's why everyone who will fight receives a temporary mark on their bodies so they won't be affected by the barriers around the city, so they'll be able to fight without problems.
All the barrier mages are being positioned to repair the barriers if necessary, but Irina is not among them, it seems that after a conversation I had with her some time ago, she has been training a new way to use her barrier barriers. more aggressive way.
The Dungeon people will be led by me, Ivan, Sapphire, Freya, Sophia, Elsaris, Rakan, and Diana who are the ones who have high leadership skills.
Me, Sapphire, Ivan, Diana, and Sophia will lead on the front lines.
Freya will lead the archers which is something she has been doing better and better.
Elsaris will lead the stealth attacks to kill the most troublesome monsters while defending the others against stealth-type monsters.
Rakan will lead the Mages to large-scale attacks using ritual spells that are still being prepared now.
But not all Dungeon Mages will be with Rakan, Mages who are more specialized in combat like Jana, Érica, Lilith, and Hela will be fighting alongside groups of Warriors.
Vanessa is leading two other Priestesses of the Gods of Forest and Battle, they will be supporting her back.
Sakura will not fight directly, I asked her to be responsible for rescuing the seriously injured and those who are unable to continue fighting both on our side and on the side of the Elves, so she will be in the middle of the village as a central point to be able to do that.
I told Nix to prepare by sending a few hundred of our warriors into the dungeon, I want her to send these monsters to the dungeon and who died there.
Layla created a space portal that is powered by the energy of the gold coins, so she doesn't have to stay there doing nothing, it seems she learned that from Rakan so she wouldn't be standing all the time while the others fought.
Orion, Nix, and Layla will run wild across the battlefield as they are strong enough not to be in too much danger, but even so, I said not to stray too far in case you need help I can help.
While I was organizing the people of the Dungeon for combat, the Elves of the village were organized in a standard way as they had been through this situation in this place many times.
Aredhel, the three village council leaders, and Ramon as the army general were in charge of everything.
Looking at the way I organized my troops and the way the Elves organized themselves made me realize a big difference in things.
My way of leading was to allow the troops the versatility to attack or defend depending on the situation, we divided everyone into groups of 30 to be able to move the right amount to where you needed it.
But the Elves look more like an army splitting into a wall of shields in front, warriors in the middle, archers and mages in the back.
The way they moved was well trained and coordinated, it shows how much they've all been training the same thing over the years.
Their defense method is certainly better, but I don't just want to defend, I believe that the best defense attacks.
The small groups I've set up will be taking turns between the back row and the front row, so everyone will be able to rest and eat.
We will attack in waves to finish off as many monsters as possible, I believe that this way the monsters will not accumulate which would make our work more difficult as time goes by.
