"Whaâ€""
Raven was surprised a little when Alec, Eve, and Curtis ran pass him.
He even stopped himself from dashing toward the undeads.
And after thinking for a while, Raven just decided to observe Eve, Curtis, and Alec for a while.
And not long after they ran pass him...
Eve, Curtis, and Alec reached the undeads.
And as soon as they did...
Swoosh-
Curtis immediately swung his mana-coated sword horizontally toward the enemies!
SLASH-!
Decapitating several undeads in a second!
Fwish-
Then after that, without missing a beat, Eve thrust her mana-coated spear toward the herd of undeads using only her right hand!
BAM!
Putting a huge hole to the body of the undead who received her attack!
But that's not all...
Boom!
Eve's attack produced a strong shockwave afterward!
Which sent the other undeads near her flying, and even killing a huge number of them!
"They're really monsters huh."
Raven said that, he's watching Curtis and Eve from a distance.
'They killed a lot of undeads without exerting that much effort.'
He thought.
"And it looks like they did their research. They know that one needs to use mana or magic to deal with undeads."
Then he mumbled to himself.
And after that...
Bam-
Swoosh-
It was Alec next who made a move.
He didn't attack like Curtis or Eve.
Instead, he decided to go inside the herd of the undeads!
"Hm?"
And his action made Raven curious.
'What the hell is he trying to do?'
Is what in Raven's mind while looking at Alec avoiding many enemies while going even deeper in the herd of the undeads.
By the way, there are roughly 250 undeads there, and Eve and Curtis killed about 25 of them combined.
"Oh, he stopped."
Raven suddenly said when he saw Alec stop and stood still in the middle of the army of undeads!
And right as soon as Alec stopped moving...
-Kraaah!
-Graaah!!
The undeads near him immediately targeted him!
But nevertheless, even without knowing what Alec is planning to do, Raven did nothing and just continued watching Alec from afar.
'Alec is naive, but not an idiot.'
Raven thought to himself.
'I'm sure he have something in his mind.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe added.
-KRAAANNH!
And that's when an undead got really near Alec!
Swoosh-
That undead immediately swung its disgusting claw toward Alec!
But even with that, Alec didn't move!
Ting!
Then, something Raven predicted happened.
Before the undead's claws reach Alec...
A pinkish transparent barrier appeared around him and stopped the undead's attack!
"See, I knew it, he's just acting cool."
Raven casually said when he saw that happen.
Also, Raven immediately recognized whose barrier it is that protected Alec.
'It's one of Adelle's skills, Cocoon.'
Raven thought.
Fwish- Fwish- Fwishâ€"
And it was then, Raven saw several mana-coated arrows flew above his head at a terrifying speed!
Phuck-
Phish-
Thuck-
And those arrows struck all of the undeads around Alec!
Slowing them down and even killing some of them, giving Alec some time to move freely!
"What a good coordination."
Raven mumbled with a small smile on his face.
Anyway, Alec didn't miss the chance Aoi and Adelle gave him.
He immediately took a stance, then he started circulating mana inside of his body.
And not long after that...
Fwoosh-
Raging blood-red fire covered Alec's arms, all the way to the very tip his sword!
"Ohhhh."
And seeing that, Raven couldn't help but let out a voice of admiration!
'He's already at that level?!'
Raven excitely thought with twinkling eyes while looking at Alec.
'He's really getting stronger much faster than the version of him!'
Raven added with a sly smile.
Anyway, after the fire appeared from Alec's arms and sword.
The barrier surrounding him disappeared!
And immediately after that...
"HUP!"
Swoosh-
Alec violently turned his body from left to right!
Swinging his fire-covered sword horizontally!
Alec continued turning his body, until he performed a full 360 spin along with his sword!
FWAAAH-!
-Graaahhhh!!
-Kreeeuk!
Killing all the undeads 5 meters around him almost immediately by getting slashed or burned!
-Krreeeeeah!
And that's not all!
The fire started spreading from the undeads, to another undeads!
Killing them too!
This continued, again and again!
Just after about 30 seconds, that's when the fire died out.
But in that small amount of time, Alec's attack killed about a total of 70 undeads!
Also, while the fire was ongoing, Eve and Curtis didn't stop attacking the undeads, killing a total of 36 of them in that time.
While Aoi and Adelle are assisting them from the back.
"Wow..."
Raven mumbled in awe.
"They killed half of the undeads under a minute."
He followed.
Raven knows that Alec and the others wouldn't lose to mere undeads, but he didn't expect that they could deal with so many of them this fast!
"Hm?"
But as Raven was admiring Alec's and the others' prowess.
He felt a gaze on him.
He immediately turned to where he can feel it, just to see Eve looking at him with a smug look!
'What's with her...?'
Raven asked to himself.
Then...
Eve opened her mouth.
'Don't slow us down.'
And she mouthed that to Raven!
"..."
Raven doesn't know what to say.
[You started it.]
Sariel suddenly appeared and told him.
"I know."
Raven briefly replied with a small frown.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Then he immediately started walking toward the army of undeads.
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.
The sound of Raven's steps were audible, and his presence was getting stronger and stronger every step he takes!
And because of it...
Alec and the others stopped moving.
Their attentions got unconsciously drawn to Raven.
Not the undeads though because they don't have the ability to think, so they were unaffected by Raven's skill, [Monarch's Presence].
Tap.
And not long, Raven stopped.
And now, he's standing between Curtis and Eve who are looking at him with a frown.
Raven briefly looked at everyone...
Then he smirked!
"This is how you act cool."
Raven said that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd before the others could even say anything.
Fwip-
He raised his sword above his head using both of his hands.
Swish-
Then he sent [Celestria] to cover the blade of his sword!
Swoosh-
And after that, Raven transformed [Celestria] into a 10 meter-long blade that is attached to the [Emmeranne]!
"!"
That sight made the others' eyes widened!
Not that Raven care though...
Bzzt-
Bzzzzt-
Instead, he covered the whole 10 meter-long blade of his with his electric-attributed mana!
Bam!
Raven stepped his right foot forward!
"DIEEEE!!!"
SWOOOOSHâ€"
Then he swung his long-ass sword downwards!
And seeing a giant sword covered in electrical mana going downward the undeads...
"Fuck..."
Eve was left in disbelief.
And that's when.
Raven's sword collided to the ground.
BOOM!
A loud sound echoed throughout the area!
FWOOSH-
And it was followed by a strong shockwave!
Debris and dusts went flying everywhere too!
And a small earthquake was felt by everyone!
"KYAAA!"
"URGHH!"
Adelle and the others protected themselves from the flying rocks and body parts of the undeads...
And after a few seconds...
The surrounding finally calmed down.
The thick dust cloud in the air started fading away.
And no more debris was flying around.
And when everything went back to normal...
Eve, Adelle, Alec, Aoi, and Curtis immediately shifted their eyes to where the undeads are.
"!"
"!"
And what entered their sight surprised them...
"That fucking monster..."
Curtis mumbled unconsciously.
But no one can really blame him.
Why?
Because the over 120 undeads just few moments ago...
Only about 15 of them are left moving.
"Heh, I win."
And then, they heard Raven mumble that in a happy tone.
