            Due to it being stretched very thin, the makeshift rope snapped in 2 with just one laser beam.

BOOM!!! His hard work was finally put to use, as the handmade spears quickly sprang up. It was just an imitation, so the spears didn’t have enough force to shoot off from the ground like the ones used by the Spartan army. But this was just the right force to inflict enough damage to the big cat.

            It seems like the panther sensed the danger, as it tried altering its jump trajectory but it was already too late. The spears ruthlessly impaled its exposed belly, it growled in rage and pain as its bowels and blood freely flowed out.

Due to the force and momentum from the panther’s moving speed, the spears conveniently cut it from where it impaled on its belly to its leg as one of the spears got stuck in its leg bone.

Still refusing to underestimate it, Clark leaped at it as it fell, stabbing with his sword at its neck.

More blood rained down as the panther struggled violently, but he steadied himself despite the shaking. He quickly stabbed its other undamaged eye with immaculate precision, successfully blinding both eyes. He stabbed with his other dagger repeatedly on its head, as he got bloodied all over from the blood spurting out.

On Leo’s side, after the Leopard gave Clark a scar, he bravely clashed with the exobeast as they quickly entered a bloody melee battle. He persevered as his injuries accumulated, while he tried injuring it also.

He witnessed how the panther was caught in the formation, and how Clark dealt with it. So, he restrained himself a little, stalling by focusing on defense and waiting for his friend to finish the panther off so he could help him kill this troublesome leopard together.

            Not long later, the panther grew weak as it now barely clung to its life. As Clark saw how it was still alive but weak, he glanced towards Leo’s battle. Seeing how bloodied his friend was, he decisively left the panther with his dagger stuck on it.

Even though the leopard was weaker than the panther, it was still an exobeast. It was already impressive that Leo was able to hold on for so long without dying.

            He picked his sword up and sprinted forward to meet the leopard, the intelligent big cat tried to retreat immediately as it already saw its stronger companion dying. But its mistake was for it to not have retreated since. Leo sensed its attempt to retreat and did a reckless bash on it with his body.

After the reckless charge, he immediately felt dizzy as he tried to remain sane while the leopard staggered towards his friend as it was obvious it didn’t expect that.

            Clark thrust his sword forward with outstanding force, as the air parted to allow the sword to move faster. An exobeast is naturally a different beast entirely with inhuman instinct, as it displayed its insane battle reflexes.

It clawed with its limbs despite its staggering posture while trying to bite at his head. He was surprised, but due to his increasing experience, he pulled back releasing a sideways swing at it with his sword.

            Pfft!! The sword connected accurately to its neck as blood rained down, it roared in pain as it fell. During all this, Leo was already clear-headed. He followed by jumping up as he smashed down with his sword at the wounded exobeast’s neck.

The leopard’s head rolled away from its body, as it twitched on the ground. Both friends quickly turned to face the panther alertly after this, they were both relieved as they found that it already breathed its last breath.

            Pheew!! They both exhaled exaggeratedly in relief as they plopped down to the ground tiredly.

Leo suddenly burst out in laughter as he roared, “Clark we actually killed an exobeast. Not one, but two exobeasts,” he exclaimed with joy. He continued laughing as he felt a strong sense of joy and fulfillment engulf his heart. Clark couldn’t help it; the joy was infectious as he also burst out laughing.

So there, 2 bloodied friends lied, as they both vented their craziness without restraint.

            They rested like that for 30 minutes before they stood up to wash themselves up. They found a small water reservoir nearby, they rejoiced as they quickly washed themselves up. It didn’t feel good being drenched in blood.

“Leo this will be my first time getting exobeast meat. I’m really tired, let’s eat before we tend to our injuries”, Clark suggested as they were both famished. That’s exactly what they did, as they roasted the meat and ate to their satisfaction.

            To their surprise, they found that time was already around 4:00 pm, so they decided to rest and that’s what they did.

[Thank you for reading this chapter, I really appreciate it.]

    Clark woke up the next day feeling great. He dreamt of food during the night, the type that turns heads. He saw himself as an emperor as his maidservants served him lots of fruits, meats, snacks, and beverages.After waking up, he was disappointed as he didn’t see any luxurious palace, no maidservants, but the now-familiar handmade small rocky cave he made with his friend. “Oh man, my life’s a complete disappointment,” he thought in resignation. "I wish I could be an emperor forever.” Most of his dreams always feel kind of blurry when he wakes up, but he still remembers the most essential parts. Since he was small, that was how he always had dreams on intervals. You know, sometime

    The 2 cadets journeyed for hours, as they intended to leave this mountainous region entirely. They tried to make themselves as inconspicuous as possible, as they possibly can’t account for all the dangers in this region. They did not want to engage any beast horde now, exobeasts were their main focus.They rested sometimes on the way, as they conveniently ate from the meat, they packed on their bags to regain their energy. “Shit, man I didn’t know this rocky territory was this large. It’s evening already, and we are yet to sight another terrain”, Leo grumbled in frustration.Clark chuckled at the way his friend grumbled, but he also felt helpless. “I hope that we leave this area soon”, he muttered.

    Too late? Maybe…, the exobeast charged towards Leo, fully displaying its enhanced speed. As he ran, flashbacks quickly emerged in his head, as he recalled information about the rage phenomenon.Information is power, if you have information about your opponent, you are halfway to defeating him.The rage phenomenon is a state an exobeast enters after it gets agitated and angered to an extent. After this transformation, it receives a special surge of adrenaline. Which leads to a great increase in its strength, lethality, aggression, and a lot of other attributes.This phenomenon causes it to possess a special strength, in the form of pressure. The area around it produces great pressure which affects enemies psychologically. This hardly occurs, as it requires a lot of conditions to be met before it is activated. The pressure e

    Even though they both suppressed the exobeast, the ape was still a bonafide tank tyrant as its injuries accumulated extremely slowly. The fight turned into a battle of endurance, as they both killed all the primate's subordinates but it still fought aggressively. The ape sometimes pulled unexpected maneuvers, but they scaled through, persevering and adapting due to their increased battle experience.Clark never felt this good in a battle. During the battle, as he continued exchanging blows with the exobeast, he felt like this is what he should be doing. It felt absurd and stupid, but he felt that this was his calling.“I was born to fight, to dominate and bring glory to my country”, he muttered in excitement as his inner battle spirit took over.His current mood is similar to when you are doing somet

    Clark woke up very early the next day feeling refreshed and energized, the only inconvenience was the heavy smell of blood.He wasn’t too irritated though, as part of their cadet training was a period when they get very close to blood and sleep in a vicinity covered with blood to get used to it.This was to allow them to adapt to situations that proved dangerous, tedious, and intolerable to others. In the future, when they encounter a situation where they see themselves in bloody areas, this training can come in handy. He coped very well, as he didn’t puke because of the smell. Even though he woke up energized, he was still resentful as he preferred dwelling in his dream than to be in this smelly place, under a huge tree, in the middle of nowhere.“Shit man, life is not fair at all. It’s just like a transition from the palace to pit

    Rustle!! Rustle!! The leaves swayed to the rhythm of the night, as the wind blew in the silent darkness.As the leaves swayed, a pair of eyes watched from the darkness as the moonlight reflected the glow of the eye. The owner of these eyes slowly moved silently to where the two cadets slept. During that time of the night, Clark and Leo were both already fast asleep, unaware of the danger sneaking close.After getting close enough to see the new tyrants of the jungle, a cold glint flashed past the eyes of the black creature as its muscles contracted to prepare for a ruthless charge. It was a Night Rakshasha, a black creature that evolved from the union between a black panther and a tiger.A Night Rakshasha that evolved to become an exobeast is augmented towards extreme speed. They can fight with their four limbs do

    The sun slowly rose from the east, as the two cadets still stayed alert with bloodshot eyes. They carefully watched their surroundings for any threat.After the sun fully rose, they finally relaxed their tense nerves a little as they knew that Night Rakshashas were nocturnal animals. As they watched, fatigue eventually overwhelmed their cautiousness, making them both fell asleep.... Leo woke up around the afternoon. He sighed as he saw his friend’s injured and bloody face. He drew nearer to wake him up, as he knew that staying further in the forest was no longer a good idea.It was not a pleasant experience, but Clark still forced himself to wake up.“Leo, you’re already awake?” He asked, as he forcibly cleared his sleepy head.“Yes, bro. Let’s wash up and leave this forest for good,” Leo answered. Clark agreed without a word of objection, as the

    Swoosh!! The Night Rakshasha moved with its usual breakneck speed, as it suddenly closed in rapidly.Not even thinking first, Leo quickly turned around while swiftly unsheathing his sword, as he unleashed a tyrannical backward slash with the maximum speed that he could muster. The big cat's confident movements faltered a bit, as it was certainly caught unprepared. It widened its eyes in shock, it didn’t know how these weak humans still got the endurance to be so alert and fight back.Despite being shocked it still reflexively retreated, but it was a little too late. The sword still connected cutting a bloody wound across its chest. Before it could recover its composure, it suddenly hissed loudly again in pain as it received another blow to its belly.Its belly was exposed, as it preferred fighting while standing upright like a human. This blow was not from Leo, but from Clark as his friend was simply not that

    Among the 3 Pirate Gods in the Sahara, though none of them never publicly claimed the spot as the strongest, the Black Pirate God was the one most recognized by pirates as the strongest. After him was the powerful Red Goddess Pirate, then the Lilac Pirate God. Compared to the first 2, the Lilac Pirate God was on the more glaringly weaker side but he still had the strength to back his title. At this moment, in the Black God Pirate City, a surprising piece of news was being circulated. Pirate Queen Anamel was dead, and Pirate Queen Cobra was secretly a student of the Red Goddess. Not only that, the most shocking piece of news that took the city by storm was that of Pirate Queen Cobra’s intention to leave the Sahara and settle in normal human settlements outside. … “Is this news verified?” A deep voice asked with suppressed anger in an underground room with far better living conditions than most of the others out there in the desert. “Yes

In minutes, the news of Pirate Queen Anamel’s death spread through the pirate city and beyond.For long, Clark has always been worried about his reaction when he finally saw Sonia again but he was surprised when he did. It was like they never separated; it was like they’ve lived through all these years together.15 minutes later, they got sufficiently far away into the desert from the pirate city so they finally had the time to speak things out.Sonia brought out the stolen pistol first, which Clark handed over to Arthur.

    While Arthur asked the pirate, Clark already went to work as he closed his eyes to focus. As experienced soldiers, they already put a lot of contingencies in place during their tour around the pirate city.Even if they wanted to catch some fun, it was too unrealistic for them to just keep touring without setting anything in place.With his implant, Clark immediately accessed the hidden cameras that they placed around the city, most especially this bar. It didn’t take him long; he saw a hooded female going out through the bar’s back door.“Found our target”.While muttering to Arthur, Clark already turned to storm out of the bar. Arthur simply knocked the 2 pirates out before storming out also.In seconds, they were out of the bar’s main structure.…A few meters away from the bar, a hooded lady walked through the streets at a leisure pace as she kept a close but alert eye on her surroundings.<

    The next day, Clark and Arthur woke up with the intention to remain patient while waiting for their informant to contact them. They didn’t even go into the pirate city, it was too disgusting for them to stay in it. The more Clark felt this way, the more he feared what his girlfriend may have become now. If just a day staying in it could make him this irritated, he just couldn’t imagine what staying here for 4 years could have done. Thinking of this, he felt guilty again. “Why didn’t I come earlier?” Souring his mood with such thoughts, the day moved extremely slowly to him. Perhaps, having noticed his current mood, Arthur didn’t disturb him and opted to go out hunting alone. When he came back, he had a desert antelope with him. Seeing the catch, Clark was left speechless. “Can we finish that?” Arthur wasn’t fazed by his question. “If we can’t finish it today, we’ll just finish it tomorrow or the next. Don’t worry, I have preservation gadgets with me, and besides, your girlfriend
