While Jani was preparing to enter into negotiations, outside the fortress hundreds of Stone Apes were still on the lookout for Queen Agatha's group who were still awaiting the outcome of the negotiations.
At that time, Queen Agatha got a message in the communication crystal previously given by Jani. Queen Agatha saw him and afterwards she ordered all Jani's companions to step down and hold an impromptu meeting, but there was one person who steadfastly stayed here until Jani made it back and that person was none other than Lisa.
Queen Agatha tried to persuade Lisa, but it did not work and in the end she ordered some K.O.M to guard her as she held a meeting inside the camp.
...
In the meeting
The nobles and some commanders of the army had been present and wondered the reason for the sudden meeting. Moments later, Queen Agatha entered by dragging one man whose head was covered in cloth and after handing over the man she had brought to the guards, Queen Agatha sat down and began the meeting with a gloomy face.
"i'll give you two bad news! First; someone tried to defect to the Rohden empire by sending a warning letter about our attack this time and the second is that we were misinformed about the strength of the ape group!"
Everyone was shocked by these two bad news and the commanders of the troops who were famous for their loyalty asked in "noble fury! Please tell us who the rotten traitor is!?"
"yeah! Tell us, Your Majesty! Did they not realize about the massacre in the eastern border villages that left no one!?"
"what are these rebel losers! Huh!? Are they not ashamed? yelling about 'equality', but still doing slavery openly!" said a K.O.M commander who understood the motives of the rebels.
The words of the commanders were of course heard by some of the nobles who were members of the rebels and at this time, they could only be silent as if what the commander of the army said was true. Queen Agatha who saw the commanders of K.O.M began to become noisy said as she let out her aura "can you all be quiet?"
All the commanders of the army fell silent at once and Queen Agatha continued this "problem of betrayal we went aside then and now there is worse news coming from the Crown Prince who is currently negotiating. Just a moment ago, the Crown Prince sent out an emergency message that read like this: WARNING!! We're misinformed! The leader of the Stone Ape group was an SSS-level Monster that was the Magma Ape King and not the A-level one we had expected all along. I also estimate that their army of apes exceeds 1000 and it is possible that they exceed 2000 stone apes ready to fight."
The reaction from everyone was definitely that it was a shock and as they wanted to comment, once again Queen Agatha said "no need to give useless comments! Now I ask everyone to be serious about devising a countermeasure plan to deal with the worst possible outcomes. Then to those who still want to do stupid things, remember! I keep watching and if you guys get caught off guard, then I will be executed on the spot right then and there!"
....
Back to Jani's side
When Queen Agatha devises a plan, Jani is now dealing with one of the most feared monsters in the history of the Arca continent, the Monkey King Magma. It is said in a book that the previous Monkey King Magma had been killed by the Lava Tiger, Ignis. In fighting over their respective territories and earning the title of Monster Sovereign on land.
Although he said he had been killed, but there are eyewitnesses who say that he saw an ape enter a cave and soon the Goa collapsed and now the location of the collapsed Goa has been lost and forgotten.
Jani had thought that the Monster in the magic crystal mine was this Monster before him, but he was still in doubt because the thing that the Monster was sitting on also contained an enormous amount of Mana energy.
To confirm Jani's guess, he asked "Hey! Are you familiar with the Lava Tiger, Ignis?"
The Monkey King initially looks very relaxed, but when the name Ignis mentioned. His face immediately turned grim and asked "where did you hear the name of that damn cat!?"
"from many books. He was well known for his dominance throughout the Sculpture lands and being the strongest for the Monsters on the mainland." Jani replied calmly.
"the strongest on the ground? Ha! How can you humans call that lazy cat the strongest!?"
"that which is written in many books and the most famous legend is his fight with the lightning dragon, Tempest which caused havoc throughout the continent of Arca...." jani's words were suddenly cut off by the Monkey King who said "but in the end they were both cursed to be a weapon, right?"
Jani was a little surprised by the Monkey King's guess on target then he continued "it looks like you have a relationship with the two of them?"
"just think of it that way, man. Although no one knows me anymore, but let me introduce myself once more to you, man. I am not the strongest, but I am the Monster closest to our God, Skaratu. I'm the Great Sage Mountain Volcano, Goku!"
When his introduction finished the stone Apes and also the stone Gorillas began to cheer happily as if amazed by the figure of the Magma Monkey King. Jani was still trying to stay calm and then he asked "So the Monkey King Goku! Can I ask you, why did you close the main road of our city?"
"main road? Oho! You mean about that, huh!? I did order them to do so and if you ask about the reason, wouldn't it be obvious to protect this huge rock I'm sitting on?"
Jani was also curious about the stone and then he asked again "what is it?"
"i don't know either. But when this thing fell from the sky, I woke up from my recovery sleep and out of curiosity I approached this stone, but when I approached, I approached, I sensed the enormous Mana energy of this stone and in the end I protected this thing while slowly these Apes gathered together and made me their leader."
Hearing Jani's suggestion, the Monkey King was surprised that he could leave without needing to put up any resistance. To be sure, he asked Jani "are you sure you let me go with this stone just like that?"
"i'm sure, but this is only a temporary guarantee from me. After you return to the mountains does not rule out the possibility of other humans coming to seize the stone and this also does not include other intelligent races who can feel the great power of the stone."
After that, the Monkey King pondered on Jani's words and it didn't take long for him to finally answer "then I will reject your offer! I have run away in the past and if P I run away once more, then I do not deserve to meet My god, the noble Skaratu!"
When the monkey king finished answering, he came down from the rock and prepared to face Jani "I have realized that your army has prepared against My Stone Ape army! So I was thinking you must not be just anyone so they chose to wait for you instead of directly attacking, right?"
"this is what I fear from you, Monkey King Goku! You have such a strong instinct that you can guess my identity. It's true that my identity is quite high and let me introduce myself first, My name is Alex Van Lester. Crown Prince of the kingdom in this region." At the same time Jani introduced himself, he took out the rune Crystal stealthily and squeezed it to shreds so that the magic contained within would activate.
The Monkey King laughed then replied "Haha!!. It seemed like I was lucky enough to have captured a Crown Prince! So, can you turn yourself in nicely, Crown Prince?"
"you already know my answer, right?" jani replied while taking out her weapon and for the first time Jani would use Tempest and Ignis.
"sure! I was excited from earlier too!" after the Magma Monkey King began to show his true form that had looked like an old Stone monkey, now his body grew more than three meters with fiery red veins began to be seen all over his body.
After his original body was formed, the Monkey King immediately opened his mouth and from there came a hot magma gushing towards Jani marking the start of the fight between the two.
...
Outside of Goa
There are two important reasons why Lisa stubbornly did not return to the camp together with Queen Agatha. First, of course because he was worried about Jani and the second was a secret request from Jani before negotiations began.
Lisa, who stared at the pile of stones, prayed 'may this negotiation go well.' Unfortunately right after he prayed, hundreds of Stone Apes leaped out from the pile of rocks and with Aggressive Faces began to charge towards Lisa's Group and her guard knights.
Not long after, a bright light burst out on top of the pile of rocks and it left the Stone Apes blind for a moment, but that was not the real purpose.
Lisa who saw the Light immediately gave the order to her bodyguard "who is he among you who was previously given the order, immediately do it! And for the rest immediately retreat and join the rest of the army."
"According to your orders, Miss Catalyn!"
Although some of them do not understand, but as a trained K.O.M they still carry out orders whatever the risk. After a portion of them retreated, the remaining Knights used space Element magic and moved with Lisa to the edge of the cliff with the number one mark there.
One of the knights in charge of guarding her asked "Miss Catalyn, what are we doing here?"
Lisa who was preparing with her special rifle, replied while continuing to work "I don't have time to explain! Your most important duty is to protect me from the Apes who came here. Do you understand!?"
"we understand, Miss Catalyn!"
After receiving an answer from her bodyguard, Lisa immediately started aiming while saying "alright, let's see how many I killed in this first place?"
....
On the side of Queen Agatha
All the troops had been in formation ready for battle and when Queen Agatha saw the light. He said to his team "this is the signal! A sign that means the negotiations have failed! All witches launch first attack!"
Some of the magicians in the back position started chanting magic simultaneously and at the end of the word they shouted " "Falling Of The Sun!!" " "
Instantly a giant fireball appeared above the storming Stone apes and then a fireball fell towards them and resulted in a huge explosion. After the explosion, of course the Stone Apes began to re-invade and seeing that Queen Agatha said "well all Warriors, START ATTACKing!!"
*WAHHH!!*
That was the beginning of the first battle between Monkey-type monsters and the human race.
