Humanity Return

Ch. 145 – Lucerna Volcano

Volcanic Mount Lucerna is one of the most frequently erupting volcanoes on the Gaiafell continent, with the distance between eruptions being between 6 months and 2 years. This volcanic eruption will spew out all the contents inside, with the power depending on how long this mountain last erupted.

The Hunter Guild in Blazing Sun city had the responsibility to take care of this because this mountain was still within the Fire Sect Continent, which the other four cities would not be able to reach in a short period of time. The Red Dawn Academy also usually let third-year students and above to help them to add to their experience.

So every time this mountain would erupt, the Hunter Guild and Red Dawn would send out several tens of people of their choice to create many magic circles around that mountain.

The reason they did that? So that all the vomit did not swallow some villages around this place and affect some cities in the distance as well.

The reason why they built the village near the unstable volcanic mountain? Because here was one of the places with the thickest Fire Mana in the entire Gaiafell and only worse than the Vulcan Sacred Mountain, a sanctuary that no resident or Hunter Rank A could easily reach.

So not a few people who come here to penetrate their developmental bottleneck and end up successfully or just to accelerate their development. Making temporary residences to make it easier for them to practice was natural, which was then followed by traders who saw the potential of trade and finally, small villages while finally popping up.

They would see the Beast living in this place running down from the mountain in the same direction every time an eruption occurred and inform it to the Hunter Guild of Blazing Sun city, which would then send out several tens of people and along with the majority of the Hunters living in those villages, they would reach the number of hundreds easily.

They also had a few days to create those magic circles without being bothered by any Beasts. The Hunter experience around this mountain is also highly trained and can do it at high speed.

So that's the Medium Scale Rank B+ Mission, Calming Lucerna.

“How about Hinata?” aura said after noticing one girl who had not been seen.

But that's not what's happening on the mission right now, because they were all shocked by the return of the hundreds of Beasts that had previously escaped from this mountain and because of the strength that all those Beasts possessed was no less than the initial Rank B, he said, the group that was sent became repulsed and could not continue the formation of the magic circle that they had to do before the mountain erupted.

“He found a Rank B+ Beast on the other side of the mountain” Adeline said while receiving information from Elsa.

The Hunter Guild and the Red Dawn Academy had become overwhelmed as they too were lacking high-powered Hunters until one of the senior receptionists proposed one name Party, who are still in Rank C.

“It's been two minutes, why hasn't he returned?”

“...it looks like the Beast used all his strength to lari”

So this is where they are currently, carrying out the Quiet Mission Lucerna which has become Rank A Urgent Mission, Rank C Party LAHAR.

At least some of them.

“Oh! Looks like it's done”

Booms!

A loud sound could suddenly be heard, and its direction was like it was coming from the other side of the mountain in front of them. Several trees in the distance could be seen shaking simultaneously and dozens of Beasts suddenly appeared from there and instantly escaped from that mountain.

Some of the people who were working also only turned their heads for a moment before returning to make a magic circle in front of them.

Their party had arrived the night before and this afternoon, they became the leader of all those who were on this mission without the slightest resistance and became the absolute giver of command.

The reason for this was the unreasonable ability of Aura and Adeline's Magic Theory, the three Beasts that followed them, and Hinata.

The Magic Circle used for this mission was the Mixed Element Layered Magic Circle, which served to turn Fire Mana into Ordinary Mana, then from Ordinary Mana into Water Mana. The Fire, No Elements, and Water Magic Circle was used in the Magic Theory that was first created over a hundred years ago.

“Psssht?”

“Hoh!”

The snake beside them and the White Gorilla that was running towards them while carrying the two large Beasts had shown a capability that was appropriate to their size. Clear who split apart and enlarged also managed to save several Hunters who were almost injured.

“...heey! Look what I found!”

And Hinata, who was smiling widely while dragging what looked like a bright red rhinoceros weighing hundreds of times her body towards them casually. He was the most respected by the other disciples who saw him repelling dozens of Rank B Beasts at once with ease.

Elsa can also be seen hovering quietly beside him and looking at the huge rhino with an interested expression. Actually this mountain was a very bad place for an Ice Spirit Beast like him and made him unable to use any of his magic, so he just flew at a safe altitude and gave Adeline the information directly.

“U-uhm..”

The aura that was still looking towards the mountain suddenly felt nervous when it saw the group of 20 people running towards him simultaneously, making him take one step behind Adeline.

Adeline only turned her head for a moment before looking towards the group that had finally stopped when it arrived in front of her, then seeing someone in a black robe with a fire emblem covering his uniform began to advance again with several others wearing the same robe.

“Nona Adeline, Miss Aura! Group C had already completed the Great Magic Circle number 51 to 75! Group A is almost done helping Group D finish their part and group B is doing a final check for their part!”

“Alright, you can now help with the creation of the Medium Magic Circle or start creating the Small Magic Circle individually! Some of you also notify this command to the other three groups, then remember to gather here in an hour!”

“Good!”

The group instantly broke into three groups of six with the remaining two running towards two different sides of the mountain. Their movements were very fast and without hesitation, considering that now there was no threat on that mountain, which already had no more Beasts at this time.

“It's not too fun”

Hinata was seen pouting as she walked to the front of Aura and Adeline after the group dispersed, while looking at the huge rhinoceros that had started running away from the mountain and where she was standing at the moment. The sight of the dozens of Beast running while looking at him that he remembered had managed to lower his pleasure earlier.

“Yes, I still can't see the limits of your ability”

Adeline turned her head towards Hinata while folding her hands then recalled the sight of the girl going berserk while laughing loose for a while, then became almost in tears as she saw all the Beasts start to run away from her.

“Until now still no problem..”.

Aura had calmed down again and started to look at the huge mountain in front of him, precisely looking at the mountain peak that had started to emit thick hot steam. He then lowered his head and saw the ground that was trembling getting stronger beneath him.

Aura then turned her head towards the two girls beside her who were also looking at her, with an expression that was like aware of Aura's worried feelings.

“Hopefully this..just my feelings”.
