Alec leaped directly into the midst of the Minion demonic beasts that served under the Golden Horned Drake, which his golems had just slain. He danced and twisted among them, swinging the dual fiery chains that were wrapped around his hands with deadly precision. With each swing, the blades at the end of the chains decapitated a beast, leaving a trail of blood in his wake as he tried to clear a path through the encirclement he jumped into. His dual weapons, which were blazing with scorching heat, cleaved through the beasts as he swung the fiery chains that extended all the way to his elbows.“This proficiency really pays off!” Alec muttered as he yanked the fiery chains, pulling the airborne weapons down towards the neck of a bull demonic beast that was charging towards him. As both blades lodged themselves on either side of its neck.The beast cried out in pain as the blades pierced deep into its flesh, the heat burning it from the inside out, but Alec wasn’t finished yet.He
The next day, Alec stepped out of his room only to find the main room completely empty, this was a surprising development; as he had never encountered a time when the space felt so deserted.Curious, he closed his eyes and attempted to use his mental energy to probe for any hidden presence, perhaps planning a surprise for him. Unfortunately, the other room's barrier blocked any mental power interference, regardless, he was able to confirm that no one was there.Determined to find someone, he made his way to the training room as he was sure he would meet either Lucas or Brandon there. When Alec opened the door, he was taken aback to see everyone gathered inside, except for the instructors, Selene, and the Dean. The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as everyone battled, clearly venting their energy, although they couldn’t see it, but every time Alec used his Inspect skill on them, he noticed just how they were progressing even if it was little percentage. He understood that the cult
Just when the team thought they had seen it all, Alec revealed bundles of Tier 4 random spell cards he had been saving. He didn’t have much use for them, considering he was far more powerful than a Tier 4 Mage, thought the powers of the spell card can reach Tier 5 battle powers due to the beast coming from the beast forest but Alec still didn't really care about them as he had other ways to deal with his opponents. However, the same couldn’t be said for the rest of his team; most of them were still weak and in the early stages of their development. And Alec believed that if they had the chance to cast an extra spell for less mana, they wouldn’t hesitate to take it.With the thought that these spells were significantly stronger than those of a Tier 4 mage brought a sly smile to Alec’s face, and he couldn’t wait to see the surprise on the faces of their next opponents, when they face such unexpected attacks. Normally, he was hesitant to bring out the random spell cards, but they res
They all followed Alec into his room as he locked the door behind them, ensuring it was secured properly. He then instructed them to sit down, forming a semi-circle with him at the center.“What I’m about to show you, or where I’m about to take you, has to do with one of the special abilities I’ve awakened, because of how powerful I find this ability, I’ve kept it a secret all this while.”“But now, you are my only family here in the competition and you need my help, so I don’t think this is the time for me to hold back on any of you, just know that my ability must remain a secret; it should never be disclosed by any of you.”“Because the day that happens, it means you’ve betrayed me, and I will cease any form of relationship with you, is that clear?” Alec asked, his seriousness palpable as they exchanged shocked glances.After considering his words and the gravity of how he described his powers, they composed themselves, realizing they had no reason to betray Alec. He was family.O
It was only after Alec had pushed them into the Beast Forest that he realized he hadn’t thoroughly considered the consequences of tossing them in, as for instance, he was quite uncertain about how the reincarnation process truly worked.From what the system spirit had just explained, it was clear there was a significant difference between him and them; as he was the main owner of the amulet, while they were brought into the Amulet space due to external factors. This left Alec unsure whether their consciousness would return to their bodies if they died in the Beast Forest, as he pondered about this, he felt deep down that it wasn’t possible for them to actually perish in the first level of the Beast forest as the strongest beast there has a Tier 3 realm.Although the beasts were stronger than their current levels, but his gang had all reached Tier 4 Mage status, and Alec believed that if they worked together, they would be able to survive inside the forest. However, weighing variou
Alec wore a look of surprise because, no matter what he had imagined, Knight being knocked out of the Beast Forest was never one of the possibilities running through his mind. He hadn’t even realized that one could access the Black void Space after entering the Beast Forest, because once he entered, he fought until either his time ran out or he was killed, both of which always resulted in his consciousness being transported back to his body.This meant that he thought there was no way back after entering the Beast Forest all this while, whereby there might have been a way. With many questions swirling in his mind, Alec couldn't help but move closer to Knight, who looked pale and exhausted.“Without omitting anything, tell me exactly what happened to you in the Beast Forest!” Alec demanded, staring directly at Knight not even caring if he was still tired or not.“Okay!” Knight nodded, trying to catch his breath.---#Beast ForestAgnes cautiously walked through the forest, initially
“So what you’re telling me is that you were killed just a few seconds ago, and the next thing you know, you’re being forced out of the Beast Forest back into this void space?” Alec asked Knight, who had just finished recounting his encounter.Knight had gone from being randomly spawned among a full pack of beasts to fighting until he was eventually eliminated, it was a short and intense story. “Yes!” Knight replied, nodding his head. “Hmm,” Alec said, falling into deep contemplation as he considered various options to explore. “Well, immerse yourself in that pool over there, it might not have a significant effect on you, but you should be able to recover to some extent, i want you to try entering the door again just for experimentation purposes!” Alec gestured toward the Mana pool at the side, which emitted an ethereal glow. “Okay!” Knight agreed, dragging his tired self toward the pool and submerging himself. Just as he dove in, Agnes was unexpectedly thrown out of the Beast
Arthur and Brandon ran until they reached a towering cliff, leaving them no choice but to look back at the slowly advancing wolf pack. The beasts were taking their time, encircling them, as if trying to mount some sort of mental pressure on them. “Fuck, it’s a dead end!” Arthur cursed, staring down to see just how deep the drop was, a shiver ran through him as he caught a glimpse of the sheer height.Brandon, who was beside him, conjured a small stone in his hand, making both Arthur and the wolves think he was about to throw it at them. But they were all shocked when he instead aimed his hand toward the cliff and tossed the stone down, causing him abs Arthur watched its descent, after about twenty seconds when it reached the bottom, both Arthur and Brandon exchanged anxious glances. “Hell no! There’s no way I’m going down like that. I’d rather be torn apart by wolves in fighting than jump to my death from this height. I can’t even imagine the state my body would be in after such
