I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 125: Underground Shelter
As Logan was fighting his own battle, Rubina quickly reached the center of town.
She had ridden her father’s mount, Ruben, on War using a pre-made self-adjusting saddle, one of two he had since he wanted to gift the other to his girlfriend.
This time, though, Marie used the saddle on Solar, who was leading the team as they entered the town.
Nocturn followed close behind, looking for any signs of infiltration. It had yet to need to fight but kept itself busy nonetheless.
Explosions and fighting could be heard outside the town, making them have to hurry as the population was slowly entering a state of chaos.
Rubina took out a communication device and a megaphone.
She needed to start giving everyone orders and directions as most did not know what to do.
People were going crazy as yells and screams were heard throughout the place.
Although no notable damage was happening, they knew that the unrest from the alarm would cause such things within the population.
It did not take long for a few soldiers to start calming those who were too loud and began preparing to guide people to the barracks for protection.
Rubina knew that Logan needed help, so she had to hurry to gather and guide the people. She also needed to send Logan’s tamed beasts back to help him in the fight.
For instance, Terra, the large worm, was still on standby and would be useful if any real danger came to the town.
She had dug tunnels that would be useful for guiding people safely.
"Everyone, calm down! Lord Logan has created tunnels for this situation. Follow me; we will guide you to safety!" Rubina yelled. Seeing as it was dark, she commanded Uriel to create flames that would light the way.
"People, calm down! We need order!" they heard a soldier nearby call out in exasperation. Seeing that they needed help, Marie knew she needed to use her magic.
As the townspeople panicked in the face of the loud alarms, Marie made a radiant figure appear in the sky.
The image she wanted to use was of an angelic being that descended from the sky.
Taking out a large mana crystal, she began concentrating on her particular illusion magic to create a big show over them.
She groaned a little as she overloaded the crystal with the image she tried to picture in her mind.
Marie slowly created a bright figure, with various white wings that overshadowed the dark night and moons.
As the wings spread, they released feathers that glowed like miniature stars.
It had a majestic halo hovering over her head that had a beautiful, sculpted face whose features were hard to see as a strong light like sun shone over it, calming all who saw the vision almost instantly.
Her divine presence helped Rubina, who kept yelling out orders to calm down and begin guiding the townspeople into an underground tunnel that led everyone near the mansion and into the barracks. Stay tuned to novelbuddy
As they waited for everyone to finish entering the tunnel, the group of three kept hearing various explosions on three sides of the large walls in town.
Out of the three, they could see Silis’s large form in the distance.
Scorch’s flames, which created an inferno was also visible on another side of the great wall.
As for the third side where Logan had run off to fight, they saw tornados blowing small figures around and an ice storm that caused snow to its surroundings. Even at their distance, they could see small flakes of ice falling near the town.
Rubina wanted to join Logan just to know that he was safe but kept giving orders to the townspeople who kept an orderly line thanks to the figure in the sky.
"Say, Rubina, I think we are almost done. Do you think we should stay here, or should we join them in hiding?" Ruben asked. He might not have been a fighting-type hero, but his stats made him no less strong than Logan’s powerful Hog. He had even created a large Warhammer in case things like this happened.
"Let’s go with the townsfolk. There are enough soldiers here to help those who stayed behind. As for the tunnel, it will be closed after we enter," Rubina said while also telling Nocturn to keep an eye on the town just in case.
The group of three entered the long tunnel that used mana crystals to light the path, something Logan planned as he saw the live crystals absorb surrounding mana to keep growing.
As his creatures got stronger, Logan noticed that the mana around his town had been enriched somehow.

This helped the small crystals, no larger than his fist, to grow abnormally fast.
They were currently as big as an American football, each glowing in a different color, which was also something they needed to research with time.
It was not long before they reached a large dome under the soldiers’ barracks. It was carefully crafted by Silis, Terra, and Digger.
While Digger was the smallest out of the three, he was also a hardworking artist.
As his intelligence rose, he loved creating magnificent structures.
Throughout the underground dome, he had made columns like those in Rome, with perfect shapes and edges that made the townspeople who entered look around in awe.
Sadly, everything was still brown in color, making only the shapes the main attraction.
"Wow, what a magnificent interior! I wonder if Logan took part in this," Ruben asked while looking around.
"If it’s about that… I might have shown his beasts a few images of imposing structures from our world… and sort of told them Logan would be happy if they made them…" Marie said, feeling a little responsible.
She did not know whether to be happy that her suggestion created this grand place or if she made those poor creatures create something unnecessary.
"It’s fine, we are at least safe here and Digger seems happy with the praise. Now then… I told Terra to create a tunnel to the mansion, so the servants should be here soon, as well as your girlfriend, Ruben," Rubina said, knowing that Ruri, one of Logan’s closest friends, would also need protection.
"Thank you, Rubina. I was just about to ask that," Ruben said, wiping his brow, relieved that he did not have to go back outside to face danger.
"I just hope everyone is doing fine..." Rubina said, having Uriel warm and light up the place to quell the townspeople’s unrest.
"I think I can help with that. I set a few stones that could help show what’s happening..." Marie said meekly.
"Wow, to think you can also create a surveillance system… you know, you keep doing better things by the minute. Are you sure you aren’t trying to show off to you-know-who? Too bad he isn’t here." Ruben said with a smirk while nudging the girl with his elbow playfully.
Rubina just stared at the two, having a mild headache. She already knew Logan had a thing for the Saintess hero, but to think there was also this girl who seemed to have hidden feelings for the utterly oblivious boy, while Rubina herself had yet to have him know her real feelings.
"There, I have linked all the crystals I have placed throughout the towers. Now, I just need to place this crystal… here." Marie took out a large crystal Logan had given her to create what she had needed before and began feeding it her own mana.
Soon, above them, a hologram displayed a cylindrical array of various images showing what was happening around the towers.
The images revealed that the fights in all three areas were becoming increasingly intense.
The demons were being forced to use their mutation stones, driving them into a berserk state on all three fronts.
Ruben could only think about his girlfriend though, they soon felt a new tunnel forming within the dome as Terra entered partially and people ran from behind her to join the group.
Ruben spotted Irma and ran to hug her, Ruri looked around for a few seconds hoping to see Logan safe but knew it was too good to be true, he image was displayed on the strange magic that let them see what was happening outside the dome.
"Glad to see you all are safe," Ruri said to Logan’s friends as she stood near Rubina, who also looked at the screen above them with distress.
"Don’t worry, Master Logan should be able to handle them with ease," Ruri said to the red-haired girl, who quickly regained her bearings with those words.
In the fight where Silis’s group seemed to be doing the worst, Rubina could now think a bit more clearly. She went up to Terra.
"Hey Terra, can you help Silis? They seem to need help. Take War, Uriel, and Solar with you."
Rubina also wanted to join, but they needed her here now that their force was slowly being spread out throughout the fight.
