Hssss!The wolf on Darian’s shoulder kept struggling in fear, scratching and biting wildly as it tried to get free. But it was too late to escape.The beast now realized it had made a terrible mistake of jumping onto a madman it shouldn’t have even dared to recklessly approach.Darian’s fingers pushed deeper into the creature’s eye socket, forcing their way in as he tried to crush its brain through sheer force.“Damn beast! Make it up to me for your miserable mistake,” he growled through gritted teeth. The pain tearing through his shoulder was unbearable, yet his face remained cold, refusing to show a trace of weakness.Blood rushed down his arm, bathing his body to turn red, but he didn’t stop. The creature let out a final, ear-piercing cry before going still.A few seconds later, its lifeless body collapsed to the ground.Darian exhaled slowly, sweat sliding down the side of his face as he tried to calm his pounding heartbeat. He was lucky, if not for his experience in handling such

“Pathetic beasts!” Ember spat out as she heard the ground shaking violently immediately after Darian’s warning as if the beasts wanted to prove he was right that they were coming as said. Alden did not relax to even look around despite the terrifying sound of beasts coming closer with each passing second, his eyes were on the wolf he and Ember were attacking to kill. ‘At this point! We need to quickly deal with these two beasts before the real threat arrives,’ there was a hidden panicked look on his face which he refused to allow to reflect on his face. From the earthquake-like sound that was coming from afar, this time around the beasts were not small. Getting surrounded here when they are still battling against these wolves will put them at a big disadvantage and the risk of being overwhelmed by the enemy's strikes. ‘So this is what the main characters in novels always face. And now it’s me. This is crazy!’ Alden thought as he silently took in a deep breath as he admitted t

The dungeon was chaotic.Beasts lunged from every side, fangs bared and eyes glowing red. The air shook with roars and the sound of clashing weapons.Darian’s twin blades danced through the air in deadly arcs, cutting through one beast after another. Storm’s saber glowed faintly, releasing bursts of energy that shattered bones. Zara’s whip cracked like lightning, its glowing trails slicing through fur and flesh with precision.It was obvious that the beasts were no match for them, especially now that they were fighting seriously.They fought as a team with one goal in mind, and that was to make sure no beast passed through to the two behind, Alden and Ember.Their formation was tight, their movements hard to follow. Every time a beast tried to slip past their defense, one of them was already there to stop it.They weren’t just fighting. They were guarding, protecting, and holding the line.Ember could feel it, the heavy burden they carried just to buy her enough time. Her hands glowed

The beasts, which were many more than thirty, were now fewer than ten, ready to fall under the team’s destruction. Blood stained the ground, and the air was filled with the smell of blood. Alden held his sword tightly, his body covered in dirt and blood, most of it not his own but of the beast he was fighting. Beasts were known to be stronger than humans. If a Level 1 Talent and a Level 1 beast were to fight, the beast would likely overpower the human because of its raw strength. But that didn’t apply to everyone. Alden was different. Together with Ember, they had managed to kill several beasts already, mostly through teamwork with Ember. Their timing, rhythm, and focus had grown sharper with each kill. The two fought like they had trained together for years. Alden swung his sword, slicing through the shoulder of a red-furred wolf. Ember’s arrow followed instantly, piercing into the wound before the beast could recover. The wolf staggered backward, blood spilling as it fell lifele
