Picking up Girls With My System

The number of mages Arthur had to kill caught him off guard. He knew it would be a decent amount, but that many?

"I see. Well, it might take a few days for me to get the number, but don\'t worry about it."

There were two paths he could take. The first being killing way more rank one mage, and the other less but only rank two.

Arthur would kill only evil mages, so for him, it did not matter if they were ranked one or two. Hell, if an evil rank three mage appeared out of nowhere, Arthur would kill it too!

He was focused on getting that task done, as it was the only way for him and his wives to leave the planet before the two forces that wanted him arrived.

So, after speaking with George, Arthur set on a journey to kill as many evil magicians as he could. Of course, he had a long black robe with a hood, and a mask to cover his face.

Arthur also used elements he barely used, like ice, for example, trying his best to keep his identity a secret from everyone.

Within just a few days, stories about him traveled across the continent, and wanted portraits of him were scattered all over the continent. Its bounty increased every day, and if things continued like that, Arthur would become the most wanted person in the central continent\'s history.

It was a good thing that after five days chasing evil mages and killing them inside the room where George was, Arthur was done with it!

The vines, who wanted enough life force, got satiated after many corpses, releasing George\'s body.

"Finally! I cannot believe this is truly happening," George said, knelled to the ground.

Arthur was ready to fight at any moment, staring at George, who had yet to make a move. The situation was tense, but gladly, nothing happened between the two.

"So how can you get us out of this planet, anyway?" Arthur said.

"You will see. Now, can you gather everyone?"

The moment they were waiting for finally arrived. Arthur, Jane, Wisa, Sybille, Eleonora and Nefion would leave the planet!

Everyone was excited about it.

"Where is this mechanism you talked about?" Nefion said.

After Arthur and George returned to Ouroboros, Eleonora had already reached rank four, which was incredible.

So, all of them were ready to leave the planet! Also, before leaving, Arthur went to Odemore to check that bloodline fruit he plants a long time ago, and it had yet to come to surface.

"This fruit is way more powerful than I thought. I will keep it here for the time being," thought Arthur.

They all then left the school, following George through the sea, straight to a place he said the mechanisms would be.

Arthur did not know what those mechanisms George talked about were, that until they finally reached the desired location — a small island in the middle of the ocean.

​ There, they saw strange balls of metals, placed on the ground.

"This is like a traveling device powerful mages use. It can also multiple to a few more metal balls, so that is why you are seeing more than one. Each one of you hops inside one, and you will understand how it works. After that, just follow me!" George said.

It looked like a spaceship or something. When Arthur got close to it, the metal moved, opening a small passage. The interior of the metal ball had something like a small couch, and nothing more.

That was one reason only powerful mages could leave the planet. They would have to endure not eating, or going to the bathroom, and weak magicians could not endure such things.

George was the first to fly off with his metal ball, controlling it as if it was an extended limb.

"When you get inside, it will automatically connect with you," George said, transmitting a mental message to everyone.

It happened just like he said. The moment Arthur got inside the metal ball, the door behind him closed, and his mind connected to the thing, allowing him to control it fully. The same with everyone else.

"I am controlling a spaceship using my mind! This is cool!"

They first flew for a few minutes to get used to the thing before following George to outside of the planet.

Excitement grew inside everyone, and as they got higher, the planet got smaller and smaller.

The sensation of being in the outer space was strange. It got harder to breathe, but the mana inside Arthur came out to protect him, creating a type of barrier around his body, making it all return to normal.

"Are you alright?" Arthur said.

Even though they were in separated metal balls, it was still possible to communicate mentally, and that was precisely what they did.

"Yes, I am. Husband, do you have any idea how far is the planet we are going?" Wisa asked.

"Not at all."

The same way Arthur could send messages to his wives, he did that to George, "how long will it take us to reach this planet? Is it dangerous?"

"This device we are using is one of the best means of transportation, but even with it, it will take us one month. As for dangers, well, it can happen, but it\'s rare," George said.

"A month? Less than I expected," thought Arthur.

After a long time, Arthur had finally left his planet, aiming to reach a new place with endless possibilities. That was what he hoped for, but things would not work as he expected.

They flew across the stars, meeting other mages along the way, but none of those mages tried anything to harm the metal balls. But before reaching the desired planet, something happened.

Two powerful mages were fighting in the space, casting powerful spells, some of which would be enough to destroy a planet! George warned them to be careful, but it was not in time!

A spell hit Arthur\'s metal ball, as well as the one belonging to his wives…

"Arthur!" Nefion yelled.

He wanted to rescue Arthur, who was falling down from the sky like a meteor, straight toward a planet, yet George stopped him.

"No, don\'t go. It is suicide! We must leave and return in the future. These metal balls have limited fuel too!"

Nefion and Eleonora could not believe such a thing was happening.

"Arthur… please be okay…"

~~~~

The metal balls were falling fast toward a planet near to where the two mages were fighting.

It was impossible for Arthur, or his wives to stop it from hitting the planet\'s surface.

A loud bang echoed when the metal balls hit the ground, creating a massive crater, destroying all the trees and making all the animals flee from the area.

Arthur passed out, just like Wisa, Jane, and Sybille.

~~~~

"Father, look! Stars coming from the sky!" a kid said, laying on the grass with his father beside him.

The father, though, could tell the things falling from the sky were not stars.

"Stay here with your mom. I will go look," he said, leaving the small village, walking straight to the place where the metal balls were.
