"Not necessarily," Cillian answered.
"Only a few families own teleportation gates in this neighbourhood. We just need to destroy all of them with their permission before using ours and destroying it afterwards with the self-destruction button." He explained.
"Then couldn't we ask them to use the self-destruction button?" I thought.
"The button has to be physically pressed," Cillian sighed.
No wonder everyone seemed solemn. We would need to negotiate with all those who had teleportation gates and then travel to their mansions by using teleportation. And while teleportation was used, we had to make sure we wouldn't grab the attention of the S-class monster and the lower-class monsters running wild.
"How big are a few?" I wondered how many teleportation gates we had to destroy.
"Six, but we don't need permission for one of them since it's ours," Sienna pondered.
I totally forgot that Cillian's family had a mansion here. Meaning that we needed to get permission from five more families. Maybe this wouldn't be that bad.
"Who are the five families?" I wondered.
"The Nuelle, Lumiere, Krista, Enchantres, and Whaise," Shelly counted down with her fingers.
"Most are from our rival fraction," she had a strained smile.
I didn't know about the Enchantres or Whaise families, but the other three would be very easy to convince. I just needed to tell them the truth about what happened. I immediately decided to call Ben since he was the heir to the Nuelle family. We were already close anyways from running into each other every time I landed myself into trouble.
Without any hesitation, I punched in Ben's phone number on my marble. Maybe Sienna and Cillian weren't close to Ben as much as I was as they weirdly stared at me readily calling him. Surprisingly, not even a second passed when Ben's voice rang inside the room.
The video call showed he was inside his dorm room, preparing to get ready for morning classes. His nicely ironed uniform was laid out on the bed behind him as he was still in his pyjamas. I was glad that Alice was nowhere to be seen. The less people we had to talk about this issue, the better.
"Is Alice here?" I asked him.
"Alice had to go out early today since she had to run some errands," Ben combed his hair.
"Can we blow up your teleportation gate in your mansion located in this neighborhood?" I showed him the map.
"What?!?" Ben's eyes widened.
"Your mansion is probably already destroyed anyways," I showed him the scenery of ruined mansions through the call.
"What happened this time? Rika!" Ben dropped his comb in shock.
"It's what you see. A horde of monsters followed us through the barrier and destroyed it. Now, an S-class monster is trying to kill us, and we need to destroy all the teleportation gates before we escape so it doesn't follow us," I spread out my arms to present the scene.
Ben laughed like a crazy person as I showed him a closer view of the humanoid and his corrupted balls of mana heading towards us. It took him some time to calm down as he took in the scene of rubbles and priceless crushed buildings. I could understand since each of those mansions possessed an expensive number of artworks, clothing and heritage.
"Aren't there many mansions from the rival fraction in this neighbourhood?" Ben pondered on how to handle this issue.
"It's ok, we'll convince them!" I shouted.
We had to, or else we would die, unable to escape.
"So can we destroy your teleportation gate?" I was starting to get irritated.
"I don't have a choice but to say 'yes', don't I?" Ben appeared like he was starting to form a plan in his head.
"Yup, I'm just letting you know about it!" I assumed he was giving us his permission.
Before I hung up on the call, we heard him mutter, "I need to call Lucius to help cover this up."
"And we have the Nuelle family's permission," I turned to the people who wished to be hidden from the video call after I hung up on Ben.
"Even those in the neutral fraction can't call their leader this easily," Cillian smiled.
Sienna nodded her head as I proceeded to call Allan. We had no time to waste as I knew Ben would be working with Luke's fraction to help cover this issue or bring reinforcements. Since Allan's family was part of the outer part of our fraction, we would just have to inform him about what happened.
It took one full minute for Allan to take the call. Surprisingly, instead of being inside the dorm room with Ellen, he was inside the study room with Charles. I smiled since it would be a good opportunity to ask them both at the same time.
"Can we destroy your family teleportation gates in this neighbourhood?" I showed them the scene of the S-class monster.
"Are you asking me or Charles?" Allan seemed confused and taken aback.
"Both of you. We have to destroy both of your teleportation gates," I clasped my hands together.
"Let me guess, you got yourself in trouble again, attracted a horde of monsters and destroyed all our mansions and need to destroy all the teleportation gates so it doesn't follow you when you escape," Charles was about to guess everything that happened.
I gave him a round of applause, "How did you know?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
