2023-07-05 11:18:57Henry froze when he saw the system’s message.
He didn’t bother reading the warning twice. “Accept.” He didn’t care if he died. As long as his father lived, that was enough. [Host has traded four red coins for a special offer] [Offer activated. Countdown; 10, 9, 8…] Selena couldn’t move. She watched helplessly as the monster swung its fist toward her. Then suddenly, it stopped. It retreated. Her brows tightened. What was happening? Before she could process it— Her body slammed into the ground. The pressure in the air intensified instantly. It crushed her. Her throat tightened. Her heart pounded wildly. This aura… it wasn’t from a monster. It was from a mage. Had the military arrived? Her eyes widened. The boy. He was rising. The moment he stood, her vision went dark. Her body couldn’t withstand the pressure. Who… is he? Henry stood up slowly. Power surged through him. It burned inside his veins, wild and uncontrollable. He could feel it. This strength… His body wouldn’t be able to hold it for long. [Seven…] Henry raised his hand and pointed at the monster. [Monster has activated; Harden] [Monster has activated; Shield Hands] [Monster has formed a Pressure Wall] [Monster has—] “Explosion!” A massive sphere of fire shot forward. The air roared behind it. Before the monster could react, the attack struck. Boom. The explosion tore through everything. Trees were ripped from the ground. Ash filled the sky. The shockwave erased everything in its path. [System has shielded nearby humans] [System is stabilizing surrounding conditions] [Monster has been killed; host rewarded with 1,500 gold coins] [Reward doubled for first monster kill] [Special package granted for defeating a D rank monster] [Congratulations… System… shutting down] Selena slowly opened her eyes. Her vision was blurred. But she remembered. That boy. That overwhelming aura. That was an S rank presence. But something was strange. She hadn’t sensed it earlier. He had felt like a normal human. He must have been hiding his power. She pushed herself up— And froze. Her jaw dropped. The clearing had tripled in size. Everything was burned. Reduced to ash. Except the area where she stood. And where the captive man lay. She looked around. No one. He was gone. She didn’t expect to see him again. But she wished she had. He was young. Too young. She tried to recall his face. But she couldn’t. It was as if her memory had been erased. She only knew one thing. He was a teenager. An S rank teenager? Impossible. Unless… The Anderson family. That would explain everything. They had the military’s backing. And their youngest member… A teenage S rank. Selena believed she was older than him. Yet she couldn’t even use her mega skill properly. Her gaze shifted. The monster’s crystal lay on the ground. Untouched. Who kills a monster and leaves the crystal? The crystal was the core of a monster. Essential for crafting magic tools and weapons. There was also the soul. Used for leveling up. Selena checked her level. Six. She blinked. Then she removed her ring. Her level dropped back to five. The ring had been boosting her. A faint smile appeared on her lips. She had leveled up. “You did it, Captain!” “Captain, you’re amazing!” Selena turned. Her team had regained consciousness. They thought she killed the monster. “I…” Before she could speak, one of them hugged her tightly. “Captain, you’re incredible! I thought I was going to die!” They all started praising her. Selena hesitated. Should she deny it? What if the S rank mage appeared later? “I didn’t—” “Selena James.” Her voice caught in her throat. Everyone dropped to their knees. That voice. Vice Admiral Clark Anderson. “Sir!” Selena’s heart raced as she stepped forward. She had expected a captain. Not him. She bowed deeply. “I am Selena James, captain of Red Skull Group B.” “Where is the rest of Red Skull?” Clark scanned the area. He couldn’t believe the report. He had to see it himself. Selena hesitated. Then she spoke. “Dead, sir. All of them.” Clark stared at her. There was no way she caused this destruction. He needed to know the truth. “Selena James. Clean this place and report to me at the chopper house.” “Yes, sir.” After finishing with her team, Selena ensured the captive man was taken home safely. They had all survived. Barely. Now she stood before the military office in the Bloom area. Her heart was heavy. She knew what Clark wanted. But she didn’t have the answers. And speaking to someone from the Anderson family… Was terrifying. They had three S rank mages. All above level five. And the youngest… A teenager. Selena entered the office. Clark sat in his chair, deep in thought. “What am I supposed to tell my father…” he muttered under his breath. The Public Guardians would not let this go. “Selena. Who killed the monster? Answer me directly.” Her voice trembled. “I don’t know, sir. He… he wore a mask. Or something.” “Or something?” Clark stood up, his gaze sharp. This made things worse. One person. Not a squad. Only one. That meant S rank. But which one? “Are you saying you saw nothing? You are a B rank mage.” Selena lowered her head. “Sir… he is young. Very young. Around seventeen or eighteen. That is the only thing I am certain about.” Clark frowned. A teenager? Impossible. Even his younger brother couldn’t produce that level of destruction. “You are sure?” “Yes, sir.” Clark turned away. This was serious. He had to hide this. From the Public Guardians. From his father. “How did he appear?” Selena hesitated. “I don’t know, sir. He came… and then everything ended.” Silence filled the room. Then Clark spoke. “Selena James. You will not speak of this to anyone. I have already given you the credit. Leave.” “Yes, sir.” She bowed and left. Moments later, another officer entered. “I checked the area. It appears the monster exploded itself. There are no traces of another individual. Only Selena and her team.” Clark’s brows tightened. That made sense. No footprints. No residual aura. And yet… such destruction. If the blast didn’t harm them, then— Their memories must have been affected. He had noticed something off about Selena. But why would a monster self-destruct? “This incident will be classified.” The public must never know. They had no proof.

These humans are bastards
Lora was shaking in her spot when Diego turned to face her. She subconsciously stepped backwards in fear, and an evil smile crept onto Diego's face.He said as he slowly approached Lora.“There is no need to step backwards, little lamb. There is nowhere you can run to that I can't run to as well. I know you are afraid of dying, but that was your fate the moment you were born as a human being.If you were born as monster, that would've been different. You would've been strong and immune to death.Your friend over there fought a good fight, but he still ended up dying.”Diego stopped approaching and continued.“Monsters do die, so you don't think am not being obvious of the hundreds of monsters that have died on this very ground, but just as hundreds of monsters have died on this floor, over a million humans have died on this ground as well.So you can see that the numbers are not worth an argument.The monsters that fell into the hands of humans are simply the ones that couldn't work
Out Of Gas
Helen was breathing heavily as she stared down at the monster body which was dissipating into dust.The monster's body was completely wiped to black dust and Helen fell to her knees at that moment.She fell to her knees and continued to breathe heavily. Her body couldn't contain the energy that was running through her, and the fight wasn't over. Henry was still dropped inside the monster belly. She had to save him.Helen slowly tried to stand up and her body was emitting a large form of hot stream.As she stood up back to her feet, she almost fell to the ground again, but she managed to stand completely on her feet.“I must save Henry”Helen said as she squeezed both of her fist hard and she turned to face the direction the giant worm that had swallowed Henry was.Her vision was blurry when she faced the direction and it became clear in an instant.Helen felt total silence in the premises at that moment. She held her breathing and focused all her energy in her ears, she was trying to
Our Source Of Strength!
Ava straightened up on her spot at that moment. She had practically just frozen time. Her freezing skill caused everything under her territory to be unable to move, unless the thing had a stronger aura than her.Although Helen was strong, she was stronger than Helen and she wanted Helen to realize that before killing her. Freezing Helen was one of them, the second was killing Helen without Helen being able to do anything.The dark blades on the sky started circling at that moment and with each passing second they were circling faster than before.“This is what true power really looks like Helen, it's not about pushing yourself back to your feet, it's about being in control of everything and never for once falling to your knees!”The moment Ava said the words. She snapped her fingers towards Helen.“You tried to attain something you are not, but are still just a human being.This is where it ends human creation!”The dark blades instantly covered Helen at that moment. Helen did freeze
The superior Being Always Wins
According to everything this human should be dead already. Ava couldn't believe what was happening in front of her. Helen was standing fully despite the large wounds on her stomach, and Ava could tell that Helen had several broken bones inside her body, not to talk about the amount of blood Helen had lost.It was too true to believe in Ava's eyes. To her Helen had developed into something else.Something that scattered all her ideology and calculation about humans to the ground.“There is no way I am giving up in this lifetime!”Helen coughed out a mouthful of blood as she took a different stance from the one she took when she stood up.“Water control: a million slashes!”Immediately Helen triggered the skill, the whole surroundings started experiencing a shock wave, that even Ava subconsciously stepped backwards out of fear. She stood when she noticed that she just stepped backwards out of fear and her eyes burst open in shock.Not only was Helen able to stand up to her feet, she ha
I Bet Henry Is Still On His Feet
“I am afraid I shouldn't be expecting a response from that. You don't want to die talking, but you want to stand up and even die much painful and faster. humans, such a pathetic creatures. I will just end your life right away, put you away from this delusion of a miracle happening”Ava moved her hands and her dark form of energy started forming in front of her.“I am alive when I am on my feet.”Helen suddenly voiced out at that moment, causing Ava to stop the skill she was about to unleash.“You finally gave up”Ava said with a big smile on her face, but her smile slowly faded away when Helen started pressing her hands on the floor to stand up once again.cough!Cough!Cough!Helen coughed several mouthfuls of blood as she tried to make it back to her feet.“There is a chance of winning if I am on my feet.”Helen said and she coughed out blood again and again. Ava's smiling face had disappeared at this moment. Instead she had a face of astonishment. Given Helen's wounds, she should
I Refuse This Ending
‘This can't be the end, not after everything I have been through. I refuse this ending. I refuse to accept this ending’ ‘My life can't end this way!’ Helen tried to stand up to her feet once more, but she fell to the ground again. She had been beaten to a pulp by the monster, Ava, who was standing right in front of her. ‘Shit!’ Helen cursed as her body let her down once more. She fell flat on the ground when she tried to stand up again. Her hands couldn't support her motion anymore, and her legs were vibrating inside. There was no way she would be able to walk on her feet even if she was to stand up halfway. Helen buried her face on the ground at that moment. ‘I don't accept this. I don't accept this at all. BUT MY BODY WON'T MOVE!’ She said with tears streaming down her face. ‘I reject this! I reject this ending! BUT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO!” “Why, Why, Why, WHY! WHY DOES IT ALWAYS HAS TO BE LIKE THIS!’ ‘I am an S ranked mage for crying out loud. How could I still be bow
