A Few Minutes Ago

Ethan and his team stood frozen as they faced a massive beast—a Rank B monster known as the Eight-Horned Raging Bull. 

Steam rose from the bull’s nostrils, and its hooves scraped against the ground, kicking up dirt. Its eyes burned with fury, locked onto them like a predator ready to charge. The sheer size of the monster made it feel like an unshakable wall standing before them. 

Ethan swallowed hard. As a Rank C level, defeating a Rank B monster was an extremely difficult task. The difference in strength was overwhelming. 

His grip tightened around his sword, but he didn't let fear take over. 

"I can do this…" he muttered under his breath. 

In his previous life, he had fought against countless monsters—Rank A, Rank B, it didn’t matter. He had survived battles where he had to face dozens of Rank B monsters for days without rest. Especially in the "Age of Chaos," when death lurked around every corner. 

He knew monsters better than anyone. He knew their strengths, their weaknesses, and most importantly—their habits. 

Ethan took a deep breath and turned to his team. 

"Listen up! Don't panic!" His voice was firm, steady, cutting through the tension like a blade. 

The others looked at him, their faces pale, their hands trembling. 

Ethan pointed at the bull. "Monsters have low intelligence, especially this one. It only attacks in a straight line, charging with its horns. Blocking it is impossible for us, but dodging? That’s a different story." 

Hope flickered in their eyes. 

"If we can distract it long enough, Sylvania will cast an illusion spell to make us invisible and hide our scent. Once that happens, we’ll slip through the tunnel and escape," Ethan continued. 

Sylvania immediately nodded. "Got it!" She gripped her wand tightly, determination shining in her eyes. 

"I’ll help too!" Violet stepped forward, drawing her heavy sword. 

"And me!" A muscular boy stepped beside her. It was Kartes—the same boy who had fought Violet in the competition. He held twin daggers, his eyes blazing with battle spirit. 

"Me too!" Another voice joined in. 

"And me!" 

"I’ll do whatever I can!" 

One by one, the others stepped forward. 

Ethan's heart swelled. Their fear was still there, but their willingness to fight was stronger. 

He smiled, feeling his own confidence soar. "Alright, let’s do this!" 

But then— 

A gentle breeze swept through the battlefield. 

A silver fragrance spread in the air, drifting around them like mist. It was sweet and intoxicating, wrapping around them like an invisible embrace. 

Ethan’s eyes widened. "What’s this sweet scent…?" 

Before anyone could answer— 

BOOM! 

A massive force exploded in the air. 

A heavy silver aura crashed down on them like an unseen weight. It was suffocating, pressing against their bodies like a mountain.
