15 Awe

In complete and total awe of the abilities, I received my mind was in shock.

But then a series of sounds happened which changed my shocked brain to a stupefied broken brain.

'What the fuck?!'

If anyone were to look at me and my surroundings right now they would think that they are dreaming.

In front of me stood a possible thousand huge beasts.

Also, I wasn't even the least bit intimidated but rather I had my mouth open wide enough for bugs to fly in.

Not only was the sight unimaginable but they were also under my control.

It took me a whole minute before I could even formulate a sentence in my head.

'Huh?'

'How did I complete the mission? Both the beasts and the humans are still at war. This doesn't make any sense.'

'Is it because I killed the dragon?'

'But why would that matter?'

'Oh…'

'It's because of the spell.' I realize as what I did to trick them actually ended up hurting me.

'My plan was to get them under my control that way I could create war tactics and be able to fight the humans much smarter.'

'But it seems that because I took them under my control and that they don't have thoughts of their own they no longer have a reason to fight. It's as if we gave up and they automatically won.'

'This is bullshit I was using a military strategy to get my warriors under one collective mind and instead I cost us the war.'

'No! Even if the beasts are under my control the humans are still free and will continue to claim land.'

'Plus my grand plan is so close to completing that I can't give up now.'

'It seems like I just found a loophole in completing the mission to get the rewards but the challenge is still here.'

'Okay. This doesn't change much of my plans, they will still work I'll just have to adapt some.'

Looking at MAP I am once again shocked to see that I could see nearly everyone on the whole planet.

The only part that I can't see is their HQ which is on the opposite side of Hive.

But I can see all their troops, bases, and supply stations.

'I got it! I can make this work.'

'This is going to be a huge risk and may backfire and cost me my life however if it works my grand plan will be completed even sooner and I'll be able to leave for Terrius.'

As if it was natural to me I looked up in the sky and activated fight. Only to realize that I had 0 mana.

'Fuck. I forgot.'

'Now my chances of dying have tripled and my plan is more like suicide. But I can't relent I have to go through with it.'

Making a command I call over any beast that could fly.

What came looked like a mosquito. It was big enough to be half the height of the trees and ugly enough to make me not want to ride it.

Instead, a beetle came over.

Although it still wasn't something I wanted to sit on it was much better than the nasty fly.

Getting on its back it slowly carried me across the planet to where I needed to go.

After about a day's travel, I was close enough.

'I hope my acting skills are good. Wait, I don't need to act. My plan is already dangerous enough adding more won't make a difference.'

Landing on the ground I immediately take off running.

Even though my mana is gone my speed was still there and I could run quickly.

Once I figured I was a good distance away I set my plan into action.

*All beasts under my control, forget that you are so until you hear the word 'Hare'. Until then act as if the humans killed your leader the dragon. Become enraged and continue your attack to take back your lands.*

Picking up my pace I saw I was getting closer to the camp I was going to deceit.

But I also saw that the beetle was gaining on me.

Running as fast as I could I make it to their camp just in time, I arrive at the last second as I scream, "WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!"

Just as I finish screaming, the trees come crashing down behind me and the beetle comes charging out.

Without mana, I am pretty much useless so I run for cover as the battle begins.
