Mr. Luis walked through the dark forest, unbothered by the heavy downpour. He was dressed in his signature attire, which was a suit, and the blue color of the suit was obscured by the dark night.Despite the heavy rain and the muddy grounds, his blue suit was spotless as ever. It was to be expected, as for someone who was obsessed with cleanliness, he had made several adjustments to his outfit to maintain cleanliness at all times.That only meant one thing; his suit was waterproof.Mr. Luis walked for a few minutes without pause. Lightning clapped again, lighting the dark forest up. The sight when the forest lit up was overwhelming.Corpses upon corpses of monsters littered the forests, their blood being washed away by the rain. On closer look, different classes of monsters were killed, ranging from the servant class to the colonel class.Despite the variety of their classes, the expressions on their faces all told the same story; they didn't know how they died.Mr. Luis stopped walki
In the heavy rain, three people faced off against a servant class monster. One of the three people was down, injuries covering almost every inch of her skin.That left two people capable of combating the monster. The two students faced the monster, the atmosphere extremely tense.Lukas focused all his attention on the monster, beads of sweat rolling down his head despite the heavy rain.This was no longer a drill. The monster was extremely serious now. Any moment of distraction could lead to his death. It was not his ideal outcome. He didn't want to die here.The monster growled again, crouching as it did so, before leaping into the air, aiming its gaping jaws at the neck of his partner."HARRY!" Lukas yelled, scared for the life of his friend.Harry didn't respond to Lukas, as he was too focused to do so. His whole attention was on the monster's gleaming white teeth that were getting agonizingly close to his neck.Harry ducked suddenly, rolling across the wet ground, splashing the mu
In another part of the dark forest, three people faced off against each other, creating an unbearably tense atmosphere.Compared to Lukas' standoff with the Nightwalker, the intensity of the standoff was off the charts, to the extent that it made Lukas' face off look like two ants fighting.The rain fell heavily, still in full force after all the time that had elapsed, and the forest was as dark as night itself. Even at that, the three men could not be more bothered about it, their attention wholly focused on each other.The terrorist duo, not wanting to lose out in terms of demeanor to the newcomer, fully released their own auras. Their combined auras was just as powerful as Mr. Luis' own, if not more, proving that the two terrorists were no pushovers."And you are?" Tariq said, his eyes narrowed at the stranger, while being the first to break the heavy silence.Mr. Luis kept quiet, his eyes scanning the two terrorists. He was taking into account their bearing, and also looking for w
Ayleen walked through the dark forest, fumbling and falling sometimes due to her hindered eyesight and the exhaustion she had accumulated from her journey.Strangely enough, for the past few minutes it seemed that the attacks from the monsters were now getting less frequent.If it were a few minutes ago, she would have had to hide often after taking a few steps in order to avoid the monsters; but now she was able to go a bit farther than usual before hiding.She didn't know what brought about this change, but she was glad that at the change.The night however showed no change, being as dark as usual, while the rain still fell down in torrents.She found herself missing her luxurious suite, and regretted how casually she treated the expensive things she enjoyed.She vowed to herself to take a long week break from anything tiring and stressful. She would just relax in her bathtub and soak for a while in the hot water.Her thoughts naturally shifted to the silver haired boy. She wondered
After some minutes of waiting under the heavy rain, the monster finally surfaced. The monster growled, baring its gleaming white teeth at them.Lukas was the first to react, casting his first tier spell fluidly."Mercury Magic; Mercury Spread!"Harry was the next to react, slashing his spear at the monster. The monster showed quick reflexes, blocking Harry's attack with its tail.At the same time, the monster's tail moved like it had a brain of its own, aiming its pointed tails at Lukas again, trying to take his head off.Lukas naturally expected this, casting his second tier spell of his element to defend himself. A silver shield quickly formed, before another clang sound echoed in the rainy forest.Noelle, this time wasn't knocked out early in the fight. She didn't move though, watching Lukas and Harry combat the monster. She was bidding for the perfect time to make her move, as the monster was fully occupied by the two boys.Clang sounds could be heard frequently in the forest, the
Ayleen walked through the rainy forests, the danger level significantly lower the past few minutes. She had walked through the dark forests with caution, but she didn't come across any monster. Not even a single one.At first, she was unsure if the monster had reduced in quantity when she walked, but now she was sure of her theory. The monsters were no longer appearing as frequently as before.This was extremely good news for her. At least, she was now sure that her journey to the camps would be unhindered, and most especially safe. If she could get to the camps, she would be able to finally confirm the status of her childhood friend.Despite her thoughts, Ayleen walked carefully through the forests. The fact that the monsters had reduced in size didn't mean that they had disappeared altogether. The monsters were still at large, so she didn't dare be careless, not when her life was at stake. Better safe than sorry.She resumed walking, aiming to reach the camps as soon as she could. H
-Imperial Hall, Aegis Imperial High School-Inside a well decorated office, several people sat around a mahogany table. The atmosphere in the office was extraordinarily tense, and no chatter could be heard among the people present. The people who were seated around the mahogany table were all teachers, high ranking staff, and departmental heads in the high school.Usually, when all the staff was gathered together like this, snide remarks and subtle jabs flew around. But this time, there was no such thing, as everyone present had grim expression on their faces.The door to office opened, and a man looking to be in his early sixties walked in. He wore a red suit with white floral patterns and a pair of glasses adorned his eyes. His aging face had a very grave expression on it.He was followed by another man who held a briefcase and was dressed in a suit.The new additions to the room were none other than the Dean and his assistant.The people present all stood up and greeted the Dean. H
The rain still fell as hard as it could, and the pitter patter of the rain drops landing on the leaves of the tall trees could be heard. It was no longer as dark as it was some hours ago, but it was still cloudy, so the vision one could see was limited. In one part of the wet forests, an absolutely insane battle was going on. The noises caused by the intense battle were drowned by the noise of the heavy rain, but that did nothing to lessen the intensity of the fight. In the area where the fight occurred, the surroundings were ravaged beyond recognition. Several trees had been cleared out, with different telltale signs clearly visible on their trunks. Various craters could be seen on the wet grounds, showing how serious the fight was. In the ravaged area, three people stood under the heavy rain; a standoff occurring. But unlike the first standoff, this was done after a brief pause in their battle. Fritz Kruger, an S-rank terrorist from the Purple Pavilion stood still under the heav
