“We can tell when someone is telling lies or truth. And we can also tell if there are some things that you are doubtful about, we can tell right away,” the centaur leader said.

I guess their lie detection ability is more advanced than Albert’s. Albert can’t tell if I’m telling lies or not even if I said something I’m doubtful about. But the centaurs can.

As expected, they are more useful than Albert. If possible, I’d like to get close to just one of them so I can bring that one anywhere I go instead of Albert since he has many things to do. Though I don’t think it will be their leader since it will be the master level summoner who will make a contract with the leader.

“So, which part are you doubtful of?” Albert asked the centaur after he told them everything.

The centaurs then asked more to Albert and Albert patiently explained what he knows. There are some things we know but we lack evidence of. Maybe those are the things that they are doubtful of.

Though since they have promised to us to never say anything they hear in tis place to anyone else, I guess it’s fine to tell them. since the two master level mages here also agreed to not tell anyone when they joined us, we can tell everything.

The centaurs keep asking questions until there’s one last question that Albert can’t really answer.

“Are they really evil? Other than the fact that they killed your people? I mean we are monsters. We kill each other or even our own kind for survival. I don’t think it’s considered evil at all just to kill someone,” the centaur leader asked.

.....

“Well... I guess it’s just the difference of our upbringing. As human beings, we need to protect each other from harm since we can’t do everything on our own. So...”

“Enough about that. You’re already doubtful enough of what you said. Tell us something true,” the centaur leader said.

And I just laughed hearing that comment from the centaur.

“Haha! Albert, you don’t believe that we must protect each other? I guess you have turned evil according to your own explanation then,” I said.

“It’s all thanks to you though. Because you can do many things alone, I thought that maybe there’s a way for someone to be on their own without anyone’s help. But I can’t just tell that to the centaurs confidently. After all, I am someone who needs other people help. One can’t become a king if they don’t have the people,” Albert said.

“Then I’ll explain it to you. I’m the king of some monsters now. So I’m more used to talking to monsters than you,” I said.

Then I stepped forward. As the centaurs are all looking at me.

I took a deep breath and shouted loudly.

“JUST FIGHT IT OUT ALREADY!”

“...I guess that’s how it ended up, huh? Do I even need to be here?” Albert talked to himself.

Then I continued talking.

“You already learned what we want to do. We want to recruit you to help us with the mission to destroy the cult who will bring harm to the world. Whether you believe us or not, I don’t care. And you don’t care either. You just want your own survival. All I can say is for you to see it with your eyes once you join us. But I know you won’t let anyone weaker than you to give you order. So let’s have a fight. Pick your strongest fighter and fight that guy. He’s a summoner. And if you lose, your leader will make a contract with him. And the rest of you will obey us,” I said.

Let’s make things simple. Even if they are monsters with intellect and wisdom, they are still monsters. They prefer things to be simple.

Asking what they’re doubtful about? That’s for them to learn new things.

Though it’s good that I know a lot about monsters now. Because it’s easier to interact with them.

And it’s nice to be able to meet them first. Because if the cult found them first, then these centaurs will be our enemy. Because the cult members truly believed that the destruction of the world can bring salvation. And they didn’t doubt it at all.

If that female centaur has been staying with them for a bit longer, the the cult would have gotten into their village. But good thing she’s dead now.

After telling them that it’s time to fight, they look so happy.

“Where will we fight?” the centaur leader asked. He has a mace on his hand. Given to him by another centaur. He’s ready to fight.

I guess he will be the one who fight the summoner. He seems to be the strongest indeed.

“If possible, we need to do it in an open area. A plain field. Also, do you mind if I ride a horse during the fight? And my weapons are made of monsters as well. But I will still be the one fighting. You don’t mind, right?” the summoner asked.

“That’s fine. I already heard about that Black Slime’s ability. But there’s no open place nearby. It will take us half a day to reach the closest plain,” the centaur said.

“We can use my portal. I know a place. Also, now that you learned about the cult from that female centaur, what will you do? I’m sure she has informed them about your village’s location,” I said.

“We will find another place to settle,” the centaur leader said.

“Then I will bring you all to the place where you will fight. It’s close to the Monsters Village. Whether you win or lose, you can move there if you want,” I said.

“I’ll think about it after the fight is over.”

And then, I opened several large portal and let everyone enter. It’s close to the village. An open field where the horses and centaurs can run freely. We prepared this place after sending Ray to get as many horses as possible.

Everyone entered the portals and moved to another place. I have informed Shelia that there will be an addition of centaurs in the village. And as usual, the result will depend by the match fought between the two representatives.

And so, the open field is now crowded by monsters who are interested in watching the fight.

“...There are so many of them. And you still want us?” the centaur leader asked.

“The more the merrier.”

Then I told everyone to not get in the way of the fight. The centaur is fast. And the summoner is also riding a fast horse. It’s not a normal horse. It’s an ordinary horse monster. Still a monster so it’s not considered as animal. Though horse monsters are omnivores. They eat meat as well.

And the weapons that Victoria had her Blobbies transformed into is a shield and a lance. Not a spear like Reizpear, but a lance that can be held with one hand. Only the tip is sharp as there’s no blade on it. It shaped like a cone. And I know that it’s heavy as well.

It can be used as a blunt weapon if it’s swung. And this one is what Victoria and Sonia agreed that the summoner is good at. A lance and a shield.

And he’s also wearing an armor. It’s an ordinary armor that the blacksmith modified hurriedly when the summoner was training. I used portal to get it from him.

As for the centaur, he’s also getting himself ready. There are some centaurs carrying armor for him to wear in the fight. But why is it that only him who have it while the others don’t wear any armor?

I asked one of the centaur nearby. And he said that it’s because all the other armors are no longer usable. And that’s the only one that has been maintained well enough to be worn in a duel.

They said that they want to have some armor, but there’s no one who can make it. Maybe I can bribe them with armor since we have a blacksmith now.

And so, I brought the blacksmith here to watch as well. Not because I want to introduce him to the centaur. Though that is for later.

He said that he wants to see how well the armor he made in a fight against the centaur. And he wants to ask the summoner later if there’s anything that needed to be changed.

As for the other master level mages, they are still haven’t decided their weapon of choice yet. But the blacksmith said that they might need armor. So he wants to ask the summoner if there’s anything that can be improved.

I also asked him to made a shield for the summoner back then. But seems like he can only finish one product at that time. So I asked for an armor instead. Because even if he practiced using shield, it was still his first time using a lance and a shield. And he will need to adapt to using it as well.

But for armor, as long as he can move while wearing it, then it will be fine.

Now that the two sides are ready. Both are wearing armor. But the centaur also have some armor protecting the horse part of his body. While the summoner’s horse doesn’t wear any.

“I guess I need to make armor for horses as well,” the blacksmith said before the match started.

Well... he might be right. Though for now, let’s focus on the match.
