Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode



"What do you think we should do?" Wiley asked.

Clyde shrugged his shoulder. "You already know what to do. You have to fight it and kill it. You already know how it moves and I've given you information about that monster.

So now it's your job to kill it yourself."

"Argh," Wiley let out a frustrated groan. "You make us like students who are doing tests from a lecturer."

"Yeah, you can say that," Clyde replied. "It's simple. If you want to get stronger, you have to fight, okay?"

Clyde felt a kind of cringe sting inside him. Suddenly he felt as if something was screaming in his ear: 'You're telling them they have to fight when you have cheats for yourself? Tsk, tsk. ck. What a shameless guy.'

Clyde immediately shook the thought away. Because he realized that it can't be helped. He can't give them the cheats he has so what can he say to them other than they have to fight with their own strength?

"Haa…" Wiley sighed helplessly. "Alright. Let's kill this half-dino bastard."

Rosie and Albert were finally able to stand again.

"Let's find that monster and fight with more caution than before," Leon said with a face full of determination.

The five of them immediately headed in the direction the Sapionus Rex had fled. Although they were a little doubtful because of what Clyde said about the monster being able to use more than one weapon.

They didn't doubt what Clyde said because it was definitely true. They already knew that Clyde could see information from other people or monsters. And that is precisely what worries them.

Maethion sat in his room with a cup of tea still steaming. Indicates that the tea is still quite hot now.

Maethion's gaze fixed on the scenery outside his bedroom window. However, he wasn't looking at anything at the moment because his mind was directed towards a certain someone.

'So he invited the people who came with him to Ruin. Hmm, he put them in a difficult situation.'

Maethion tilted his head to the side unsure of his own thoughts.

'Or could it be something good instead?'

Maethion was sure that Clyde already knew about the problem in the Fortress that prevented them from using Character Information. And by now he must have told those five people about the matter.

Unfortunately, Clyde doesn't know what consequences will come to them if they find out about this secret. For this reason, Maethion wasn't sure if he could protect Clyde from the other Senior Councils.

Now it's just him, Vernik, and Madri at the Fortress. If Vernik decides to contact the others to come back here and punish Clyde and the five of them, a mess will happen.

But Maethion also knows that this is all his fault. He was the one who told Clyde that he could carry out the expedition mission he gave him. So eventually Clyde recruited the five people as his companions.

Maethion sighed. 'I have to think of a way to make this matter not get any worse.'

In the meeting he held last night, Vernik said that they must immediately close the Character Information of the five people. Just like they had done to the residents of Sivagadh Fortress long ago.

However, Clyde, who already knows about it, definitely won't accept it and he most definitely will put up a fight.

But maybe, Maethion thought that if he could give reasons so they could give Clyde and the five people an exception, he could solve this problem.

Maethion drank his tea and started thinking about how he could fix this problem.

They kept looking and looking. However, they have not yet found the existence of the half-dinosaur monster.

With every passing second, their anxiety grew because the monster could come from anywhere and ambush them when they weren't ready.

Clyde was some distance behind them. He didn't want to get too close because the monsters might hesitate to attack with him near them.

Maybe it could sense through its instincts that Clyde's strength was too great. 

He wasn't certain but based on what he saw, the half-dinosaur monster had enough intelligence to know its advantages and disadvantages.

The proof, the monster decided to run away rather than being rushed to attack them. That means it has preparation.

"Let me use my Skill," Lola said suddenly. She couldn't stand this situation.

"No," Leon forbade her. "We don't know when the monster appeared. Even after using your thirty seconds, it's possible you won't be able to see anything since the monster is still hiding."

Lola bit her lip and didn't say anything because what Leon said was true. They didn't know when the monster would appear again. Maybe even for a long time more. 

However, it turns out that Sapionus Rex decided to show up when they least expected it.

It jumped from the top of the tree above Leon with a sword raised above its head. 

"Shit!" Albert, who first noticed this, immediately jumped up because he wasn't sure Leon had time to act.

In those split seconds, Albert jumps and uses his daggers to block Sapionus Rex's sword which is aimed at Leon's head.

*CLANG!*

The sound of clashing between the two of them resounded. However, Albert's strength still lost to it so Albert was pushed back to the ground.

The Sapionus Rex used that shocking moment to stretch its arms and let out black smoke like before.

The black smoke enveloped them, making them lose their vision.

"GO!" Leon shouted while dragging Albert away. They had to get out of there as fast as possible before Sapionus Rex attacked them from behind this smoke when they couldn't see anything.

But of course, Sapionus Rex would not let the window of opportunity he had created just go.

*CRAATT!*

Suddenly, Lola felt something pierce her stomach. When she looked down, Lola saw the blade of a katana covered in her own blood.

Sapionus Rex pull his katana quickly from Lola's body and immediately looked for a new target. 

While Lola collapsed to the ground with a dazed look in her eyes.
