“Wait…” I said, and gestured my hand for the entire group to see. “Whatever you do, do not make a sound and do not move a muscle.

I knew that idling around for the figure to show up was a risky move. But either way, when that monster decides which way it would go, we would be screwed. Maybe it was best for us to come up with a decent plan before that could happen. For now, I sensed the place and tried marking the unknown entity swimming below our feet.

I had thought that this was the optimal way to face our problem. However, something happened. After a few minutes of waiting around, the old man on the back groaned in pain. Everyone present on the viaduct tried covering his mouth. But as soon as the survivors reached out their hands, the bridge quivered and slightly disrupted our balance.

There was only one word that my mind had thought of. And that was,,

“RUN!” I shouted, and led the charge.

We sprinted as fast as our legs could on the moving viaduct. Most survivors handled the bridg

    Before anything else could go wrong, I activated Oculus and immediately used my jetpack to dive straight downward. Those survivors who saw me gasped and became worried about my well-being. But they knew that I had not given up and just flew below ground. And when those same people witnessed me flying across the clouds, those fearful murmurs became cheers of delight, hoping I could put an end to our hardships. However, I knew that I couldn’t defeat the Feather Kraken. No matter how hard I would try, those Pests created by Vulcan were too much for one adventurer to handle. I even tried it before by shooting my magical and physical bullets at the flying creature. But my efforts were put to no avail. So the only thing left for me to do was to distract the hovering beast and lead it somewhere far away from the group. And that was what I did. The creature was a hundred times my size, so it wasn’t easy for me to get its attention. Even so, I did what I could and went straight ahead towar

    Fortunately, the group of survivors were already near their destination. For about a few feet away, those people would be free from any conflicts facing this serpent. So I had to survive before the inevitable could happen. Because if I die, this creature would devour me within seconds and hastily return to the crowd.Oculus and I tried our best to side step every attempt that the Feather Kraken made. When the serpent went left, I went right. And when the slithering creature zoomed onward, I went upward. I didn’t let the flying snake do as it pleased and used the fog as its cover. I noticed something odd every time the serpent and I travelled through the thick white smoke. It seemed that the Feather Kraken’s speed gradually increased when its skin touched the fog. And when I rose towards the sky or descended every time I dodged the serpent’s attack, the beast’s speed remained the same. And the pace it had accumulated before slowly disappeared.This description of the Feather Kraken wa

    It was a matter of “who reaches who first?” type of scenario where the beast attacked the survivors while the people tried running away from the creature.If i had to guess it right, the seven survivors would reach the viaduct’s end around ten minutes. The group of survivors were close to reaching the finish line. And if these people made it out on the other side of that bridge, the Feather Kraken would not lay its fangs on them. And the same would happen to me.Oculus, theoretically, could not carry anyone with me. However, I defied all means and forced my device to bring, at least, one person behind my back. This old and wounded me couldn’t walk any further, and if I tried forcing this old man to crawl to the bridge, the survivors would take more minutes for them to reach the other side of the bridge. Those survivors would gladly accept that proposal, but the serpent had already eyes on the group. And slowing down even for a minute would greatly affect our future.While the serpent

    With the old man behind my back, my movements were sluggish. And I had to be careful to take sharp turns and consider the health of the old man clinging on my shoulders. But I did not complain about it. This was the only time for me to save the old man while giving a chance for the survivors to escape. That was my job. And I wished to protect each person in my party, especially those who believed in me.The old man knew that also, as we hovered across the foggy sky. Behind us was the monster that continued chasing our tails. Fortunately, the Feather Kraken pursued our figures instead of the survivors. It was a good thing for the survivors, but not for myself and the old man. We still had three minutes left before the people could reach the other side. My mind knew that one hundred eighty seconds were not enough for me to outspeed the serpent. But I didn't give up just yet. I didn’t want the old man to die, especially when I volunteered to save him. And I… promised that I will save ev

    I focused my eyes on the prize and dove straight onward to the land. I didn’t care if I crash landed on the place. As long as the old man and I were safe and sound, everything should be okay. The two of us were going to make it. We had to. Even though the monster was near my feet, I believed we could reach the end line. I didn’t know what to do if I failed this time around. My body became lighter. And from the looks of it, I could finally reach the other side without facing another challenge. I was about to make it. However, the sudden increase of speed told me one thing.Something… or someone was dropped off my shoulders. There was only one thing that added more weight to my body. And that was…“The old man…” I uttered, and quickly turned around to check for the bloke. But when I glanced at my side, the old man wasn’t slouching behind my back. He was already falling from the sky.“Aoi… It’s fine.. Go save yourself,” the man whispered.I honestly didn’t know what the old man mention

    After a few minutes, my emotions were already swollen. I had already cried a river. And I knew I had already drained the bucket of tears stored inside me. Just as when I had thought I had wept enough, another set of emotions wished to stir my thoughts. Thankfully, before that could even happen, the mother and her child - two survivors - went to my side and comforted me.The child sat beside me and uttered nothing. He knew that I had been going through a lot and remained silent while keeping me company. For a kid his age, he knew how to handle the situation well. If he was a different child, maybe I would’ve accidentally lashed my emotions to him.The mother also sat on the opposite side. She held my hand without hesitation and met my solemn gaze. When my eyes stared at the woman, the mother caressed my head as if I was her son. Even though I was a stranger in her eyes, the mother treated me as someone dear to her life.“Losing something is normal. We need to move because life has more

    I pressed the end of my rifle and repeated the question to the mage. “Tell me or this will not end well for the two of us.”“I don’t care what you do to me. As long as I can protect my people, that’s all that is to it.”After hearing the mage’s resolution, I gingerly lifted my gun and aimed the barrel at the mage’s head. I lightly tapped the rifle at the wizard and flashed him a snicker.“Last warning. Tell me what you know. And tell me why the FUCK DID YOU NOT HELP US!”I tried scaring the mage and forced him to answer me. But instead of scaring the wizard, the survivors who met me well had seen a different picture of myself. It wasn’t what they had expected. Even though each of them felt betrayed from the mages in front of us, these survivors still had a kind heart that seperated mine.The boy who I also spoke with hid behind his mother’s figure. He refused to meet my gaze, even though we had a thousand conversations with each other. The temporary leader of the group had also deduce

    As my group headed towards the stairs, waves of portals seeped through the place. Hundreds of golden circles appeared outside the village we left, belonging to the swarm of monsters. A few minutes after, the creatures materialised and hunted down the nearest target. It was the structures that acted as the mages’ temporary shelter. But even though I left the place unprotected, I knew that the mage’s “Master” would protect them. I also had a group to escort upward. And this party of mine placed their trust on me. People could call me bias, but I offered the mage’s help with my abilities. However, two reasons stopped me from siding with them: one was their ignorance on helping us in our situation, while the other was their representative’s full-hearted rejection of my help. I didn’t lose anything when the mages pushed me away. And since they cared about their pride more about their people, I guessed leaving them alone to defend themselves would be the wisest thing to do. Besides the afo

How many days had it been since the time I had been luring and fighting these beasts? Two months? No. Two months were short in my calendar. If I had to guess it right, I was up here for eight months fighting and evading these monsters. I fed myself with arcane from my surroundings and made it my nutrition. Although magic particles were different from real nourishments, it was enough to keep me functional. And my body was still in top shape. I also forced myself to sleep only for an hour and wake up dodging those projectiles for the umpteenth time. There was nothing inside my mind but evading these ambushes, hoping I could, at least, strike back with my rifle. But the time never arrived. The lizards weren’t the only creatures present in my vicinity. There were more of them. If I had to name a few, t

When I was six years old. I didn’t need money, a lavish life, or things that I could call mine. There was only one thing I wanted, and that was my parents. I wanted them to live. But with one sudden moment, my wish turned around and burned me alive. My parents were killed by monsters, not humans. The fiend was around a hundred feet tall, and the village we were living in took the invasion. They were reptiles. These monsters had the shape of a dragon, which was technically a lizard with wings. According to the internet, unidentified beasts kept appearing from nowhere, and there were others who fought against them. Those individuals were not the police officers. I believed they were called guilds. And as I glanced around me, the news and other people claimed that t

Even though he was Obsidian, the face of my brother carved itself on the man beside me. It was as if Aoi two was a dog barking and biting people left and right only to realise he needed someone’s help… He needed my help. And now he had faced his fear and listened to the words Aoi two wanted to hear, his ears calmed down. His ears discerned what was important.‘But what now? What are we going to do now?’ I thought, and looked at the downcasted face of Aoi two. As if knowing the question inside my head, Aoi two returned my gaze and uttered, “I know… you are confused. But we don’t have much time now. As soon as I fought Aoi in this world, the entities behind these portals were already high on alert. And I

    Hina’s Perspective _____________________ “Come with me.” With one phrase, the masked man offered his hand to me. He used his other hand to lift Aoi’s body and cast a spell that changed our surroundings. “I’ll show you something.” Obsidian showed no signs of hostility. And the voice behind the masked man soothed my ears as if it was some sort of music with perfect beat and lyrics. I gazed at the man’s hand, wondering if I should take it. I had seen something like this before. But something was off. And at the same time, there was a peculiar feeling of calm and genuineness. He almost reminded me of my brother. In spite of these feelings twirling inside my mind, I shook my head and answered, “I don’t… want to... I won’t leave…. My brother! You… Want… to kill him… I’ll…. Stay by…. His side…. Until you… can kill me…” There was a chance that the masked man wanted to pull me apart from Aoi. And I never wanted that to happen. The moment the masked man heard my words for the umpteenth ti

    Hina’s Perspective_____________________All my life, Aoi did nothing but help me with my problems, regardless if it involved him or me. As long as he noticed, which he always did, my brother would rush towards me and help. Aoi really forced himself so hard until he could see me smile. And even though I pushed him countless times, he continued crawling his way back in my arms. I could still remember those days when we were together, especially when these portals hadn’t shown up. Life was simple back then. If only Aoi’s parents didn’t die, maybe he could’ve lived the life he deserved. But his life was taken away by a murderer and the portal. And now, we were given the chance to confront the man who stole his life away. But even so, we couldn’t defeat him. I… couldn’t do a thing. Aoi did everything he could to stop the madman from hurting everyone, despite knowing none of the strangers, but he failed. And the only thing I could do was to watch him suffer.Maybe if I trained hard enoug

    Chapter 232 - I lost

    As I glanced on my side, Hina still wanted to fight. She stood up and used the rock beside him, but her legs kept shaking as if an earthquake struck us. But the ground remained still. There was no earthquake. And when I appraised her status, my system described her with a fatigue ailment in addition to her drained mana right beside his health bar.[Iron Maiden has been deactivated. Obsidian is too powerful to be compressed!]Those were the words that marked our doom. The moment Obsidian broke free from the [Iron Maiden] all hope was lost. I had no idea how to win now, especially when my sister was on the ground. She couldn’t me right now. But Hina had already assisted me until her body fell on the ground. Although she desperately forced herself to move and stand with the help of a rock, Hina couldn’t cast any more magic and would remain sluggish until she could recover her mana. Obsidian stood on the other side of the map, unscathed and unbothered from the spell. The [Iron Maiden] wa

    Time wasn’t on our side. Obsidian tried hitting us with his sniper, but Hina continued lifting me up and creating walls in front of me. It was as if she was reading my movements. When the masked man pulled the trigger and launched a set of bullets in my direction, I went to the side despite having no platform for me to step on. But I trusted my sister. By the time I jumped above ground, I trusted my instincts and rolled on the side. Like I had said, there was no ground to catch me when I fell. But as soon as I gyrated my body, a floor made of soil immediately materialised and cushioned my feet. The next thing I knew, I tumbled to the side and evaded almost every bullet coming in my way. The shells that I couldn’t dodge still didn’t hit me. The moment those leads from the masked man could take me out, Hina summoned a wall in front of me and protected my face.I didn’t have the time to thank my sister and carried onwards with the fight. Time was also our enemy. So when I found an open
