Reborn as God: The strongest system

" she's … fine she's doing okay, she's just tired," David said, frowning.

Esdras controlled himself and calmed down, " tell me what happened, and I mean everything."

He should have known, that's right, how did he survive? He definitely should have died. It wasn't just a normal injury that could be restored even with an intermediate-level health potion.

Several of his internal organs were completely destroyed. Even if he was on a scientifically advanced earth, he would have died right then.

It was only because of the existence of something absurd like magic that he could have survived. But this world did not have any healing magic.

Moreover, it was not healing that was required. It was regeneration, which he reckoned was not a low-level healing spell or such even if that kind of magic existed.

Whatever it was, it would not have been easy. Did Celine have such magic? Honestly, he doubted that. Moreover, he remembered seeing her in despair before his death.

If she had such magic at her disposal, then she wouldn't have panicked as much. How did she save him?

Even if such magic as regeneration was possible, it had to be done extremely quickly before his death. And he was bleeding like there was no tomorrow.

If so, then the magic that healed him must have been used very quickly after he lost consciousness. What happened exactly?

Was there a passing Master mage who took a liking to him? Could a Master mage even do something like that?

No, he had to stop with all the speculation. He was not getting anywhere, he had to talk to Celine herself.

David shook his head, " it's nothing, she was fine until we arrived in the fortress but she wouldn't answer any of my questions, she seemed… out of it, unresponsive. Honestly a little unfeeling? I don't know how to describe it but she's probably just tired."

"What did she do after coming here? Did she say something? Anything?" Esdras pressed.

"After we arrived, she just passed out. The physicians just said that she was exhausted and that she needed time to sleep. She's in her room."

Esdras calmed down slightly after hearing that. Everything could be solved as long as he was alive. He wanted to go and check up on her right now, but he held himself back.

Whatever it is that she did, it must not have been easy, it couldn't have been. So it was better to let her rest for now. The time for asking questions will come later.

A shocking explosion outside of the fortress told them that something important was happening.

Cautiously, Esdras and David did not approach very close. And yet they were still able to see senior Ron crashing into the upper wall, surrounded by a sphere of green winds. Without which he would have died.

The impact completely destroyed that wall, creating a crack similar to the one that the chameleon was protecting. Tens of soldiers died in the impact and more after the wall fragments fell all over.

Senior Ron landed safely and jumped back up on another part of the wall. His mana, which was said to rival that of Great mages was unleashed creating a green aura around him.

He took out a chain from which several metal pieces in the shape of stars, looked to be finely crafted and released a shocking magical resonance.

Subsequently, they were shot out once they were released they started gathering wind. While others were focused on what was happening outside he noticed senior Ron taking a blue potion after staggering on his knees.

And for a while, something that they couldn't see started happening outside the fortress. However, they were able to see the result. A small tornado appeared.

They could see several humanoid shapes flying within the tornado. There were some trees and animals too as well.

The tornado only lasted for a few minutes, not more than five by his estimation. But when it stopped more than five warlocks were sliced into bits and scattered with disgusting thuds.

Again, there was chaos on the outside, and the ground shook and shook There was also a bright flash of fire that completely burned down the entirety of the forest section that the fortress was in.

Finally, at dawn, the warlocks retreated it for good.

All that was left, was to bury the dead. The apprentices and the soldiers and everyone started cleaning up. Esdras was numb to the number of bodies sprawled around him.

He didn't know why, it was like he couldn't feel anything other than just a blank feeling. He thought that he should have been disgusted or brimming with sympathy and sorrow.

But he just couldn't bring himself to feel those things.

David who is dragging another body suddenly stopped and marched up to senior Ron and points at him.

"What the hell is going on? Can we ask that now? Is it all right?" His voice had a dangerous mocking tone, "How many more of us have to die without knowing anything? And don't even try that stuff about the war or something."

Senior Ron remain silent, which only edged David further.

"What fucking orc king? What ten thousand orcs you can trick commoners with that bullshit. I know very well, that three Great mages are more than enough to destroy that entire army in a single afternoon. I don't mind doing work for the tower but I… at least I want to know why?"

Esdras didn't expect David to blow up and I've senior Ron of all people, and so publicly too? He didn't know how to salvage in this situation.

This was something that occurred to him but he didn't know how powerful a Great mage was compared to a True mage so he wasn't sure. On the other hand, David seemed certain.

However, if it came to it, he might have to leave the Octarine tower…

Actually, would it not make sense? If he thought about it, after experiencing the powers of rank 2 and especially those high-level rank 2 he could guess that the power of Great mages must be ten times that.

Add on top of that the magic items in the possession of the tower. The orc army should not have been able to make a fuss for so long.

This meant one of two things, the orcish army was much stronger than they knew. This was a real possibility, as he had seen one of the Warriors that orc was a rank 2.

The second possibility was that the tower was putting on a show. The problem was he couldn't figure out why.

Senior Ron suddenly sighed.

" do you think I know? Does it look like I know what the higher-ups are thinking? I'm just like you, I don't know what's going on, all I know is that I have to follow my orders. The hard part is over. That is the good news. I think that we will be recalled soon."

Esdras did not expect that Senior Ron wouldn't blow up in anger it looked like he was frustrated just like them.
