It had been some days since Samoa brought his dark report to the top brass of the village. In a span of 5 days, the village was enveloped in chaos and fear since the villagers found out about the Overflow that was coming. The first barrier to the evacuation was met when several of the villagers started riots and refused to comply with the evacuation protocol. People refused to believe that the top brass was so blind that it couldn’t see signs of an Overflow until now. And those who believed them thought they were pretty incompetent not to see it coming. They demanded that those in charge – those who were responsible for noticing signs of an Overflow – be punished and presented to the public. However, when they found out that those they wanted to see punished actually suffered more than they ever could – that they died – the riots calmed down.
Finding out that 3 of the Enchanted Forest Scouting Party, which was the best the village had to offer, d
Rushing to the top floor of his building, Village Head Fan was able to see what was happening. The shaking ground was all the proof he needed that there was a Magical Beast Horde Coming this way, but higher grounds served to show him what was coming first. Right behind him were Frowning Tiger and Blistering Cheetah.Looking at the vast number of Middle and Low Class Magical Beasts that were approaching the village, Village Head Fan furrowed his brows in worry. But he didn’t dillydally in this kind of situation. He knew that time was of the essence, and every second wasted was equivalent to giving up the life of a villager.“Blistering Cheetah,” he called.“I am here to obey, Head Fan,” Blistering Cheetah answered quickly, refusing to take his eyes off the large entourage of beasts rushing out of the Enchanted Forest towards their village. There was no fear on his face, but he was anxious.“Gather the Predators under you
“Village Head Fan is late,” outside the Central Demarcation Line, Frowning Tiger looked towards the approaching beast horde with a grave expression. Next to him was Rash Tiger, whose jovial smile was nowhere to be found. Just like Frowning Tiger, Rash Tiger had a scowl on his face as he watched the stampede of Middle and Lower Magical Class Beasts draw closer and closer as each second whittled by.“He is. But he surely must have a good reason” Rash Tiger stated, his eyes glued on the beast horde. He didn’t even want to turn his eyes away for a second.“Were all the traps put in place,” Frowning Tiger asked? This time his statement wasn’t meant for Rash Tiger. It was meant for the handsome young man who stood behind him.“Everything was done as requested, Sir Frowning Tiger,” Samoa answered, with an anxious look on his face.Frowning Tiger nodded at Samoa’s response. This was a threat outsid
*Boom*A Middle Class Magical Beast was sent flying into a mob of Low Class Magical Beasts by a ferocious punch. There was a huge dent on its head, and it bled profusely from its mouth. Its eyes were blank, and it breathed no more. Frowning Tiger, the one who dished the attack wasn’t even paying attention to the crowd of monsters trying to swarm him. He casually evaded the swipe of another Middle Class Magical Beast and slapped the creature silly. The slap catapulted the beast into three Low Class Magical Beasts, injuring one of them and killing the other two. As for the Middle Class Magical Beast that received the full brunt of the attack, its head was severely twisted to one side. It was dead.“He’s doing well on his own,” Frowning Tiger thought as he watched Samoa slice the head off a Low Class Magical Beast without any difficulty. Frowning Tiger wasn’t focused on the battle because he was paying so much attention to Samoa. Since the cr
“Poisonous Earthworms are dangerous adversaries. They burrow into the ground and only reveal themselves when they ascertain their prey’s position. But they are only dangerous when you don’t know that they are coming. Since he knew that it was around, he could prepare for it. Sure it takes quite an amount of skill to concentrate on other beasts and remain alert for the earthworm’s sneak attack at the same time, but a genius with high intellect can pull it off. As a scout with immense knowledge, he knew that Poisonous Earthworms are blind, and use the vibrations to sense their prey.”“So he used that to his advantage. He kept stomping to deceive the creature that he was a Magical Beast. After all, a human’s footsteps are light compared to that of a Magical Beast’s, which are heavy. By using light steps when he was underneath the mantis, he made the earthworm believe that he had revealed himself. So it surfaced and struck. But he w
Frowning Tiger bashed in the head of another Large Ironclad Earthworm. He breathed a huge sigh of relief when he saw that Samoa was safe. And when he saw the blade that did the saving, he was doubly relieved. That weapon belonged to Village Head Fan. Since the sword was here, that meant that the Village Head was here as well.“Wait a minute,” Frowning Tiger suddenly realized something. He delivered an uppercut to an overzealous Large Ironclad Earthworm that was trying to consume a Thrasher who was right next to him.“That blade overdrafts his life force. Why would he use it when he could have just used the other one?” Frowning Tiger ignored the look of thanks the Thrasher he saved gave him and thought. Although he didn’t know the origins of the red sword, he recognized it as the blade Village Head Fan always relied upon when he was stuck in an extremely unpleasant situation. And because he was familiar with the sword, he knew how much it d
Surrounded by the energetic voices of his father’s men, Arthur finally took a step forward. The aura of dominance that was radiated from his body increased with that one step. The creatures that had arrived at the village so eagerly only a few moments before, now looked on fearfully. Arthur took a simple step. He just put one foot in front of the other, yet to them it was like a hill had suddenly grown into a mountain, and the pressure they felt was insane. Like trained soldiers with impeccable coordination, every single beast took a step backwards. It didn’t matter if it was a Middle or Low Class Magical Beast. Every single one of them took a step back. Even the Large Ironclad Earthworms, the first group of High Class Magical Beasts to arrive, couldn’t help but tremble at the aura of the one who stood before them. They also slid back.The fighters watched what was happening with excitement. This was the aura of a ruler! This was the power of one destined to
“Animal Hunters and Soldiers: Stay back. Provide support in the form of arrows” Frowning Tiger’s orders were absolute. Although everyone was pumped by Arthur’s charisma, if they went against the Mythic Classes and High Classes, the only result would be their deaths.Unlike the prior horde, the 2nd wave wasn’t as plentiful, but they were each powerful Magical Beasts. Animal Hunters and Soldiers would only be useless in front of these beasts. So the best they could do was to provide support from the back. Although their arrows would not harm the Mythic or High Classes in any way, hey were sure to irritate them. Frowning Tiger was hoping to make use of every little opportunity they could get. Irritated Mythic and High Class Magical Beasts were better than calm and logical ones. Plus, they could also cause confusion amongst the Insect Types by introducing flames. Insect Type Magical Beasts feared fire, so that was the best course of action
Even after unleashing the strange energy, Arthur was still full of strength. The well of power in his body increased in capacity and grew a bit bigger, meaning that it could take a lot more and do a lot more. Under the stunned expressions of all the fighters who had never seen something like that before, Arthur continued his rampage.It had only been a few seconds, yet several Magical Beasts, four Mythic Classes included had fallen. The Predators and Thrashers felt their blood boil as they dashed into the crowd of beasts.Frowning Tiger deftly evaded the claw of a Mythic Class Magical Beast thrusted viciously with his sword. The beast was fast, but it lost a limb whilst trying to evade the blow meant for its head. However, as if that meant nothing, it pounced on Frowning Tiger and opened its mouth wide. Like a cannon, it blasted a blue energy ball from its mouth towards Frowning Tiger. But Frowning Tiger was prepared. He twisted his body strangely and employed a strang
