nThe Fone Kingdom wasn't the only place that became a battlefield between Athen's Champion and Red Matter. Most of the cities, towns, and kingdoms that were around Mirror Lake simultaneously became a battlefield.

nIn short, this entire region became a battlefield between two gigantic organizations. These kingdoms and cities were sandwiched. They were helpless as they could only watch civilians die one by one.

nThey were too weak.

nSouta arrived at a huge wide space. It was unbelievably wide as the thing that lies before his eyes were none other than the Titanous Victor Golem.

nIn front of this giant golem, he felt like he was just an ant.

nThe golem was laying down with its back on the ground. There were various mechanical objects attached to every part of its body. In front of its head, there were three people preparing something unknown.

nBut Souta could see that beside them were a bunch of first-rate mana essence.

n'First-rate mana essence?! So it's real...'

nSouta was a little bit surprised. He calmed down as he saw the three people turn around to face him.

nHe wasn't hiding his aura at all so these people sense the best feram in the atmosphere. The energy that was pushing the mana away.

n

"So there is a monster here? But how does a monster like this arrive in this place?

" A man with long green-colored hair rubbed his chin. He had droopy eyes, a hook nose, and a pair of long-pointed ears.

nSouta grinned widely. He didn't need to answer this man's question. He could already see the things that he needed to destroy to stop the activation of the War Golem.

n

"Go!

"

nHe said and the four shadows beside him pounced forward. Their target wasn't the elf, it was the two people beside the elf.

nOhm!

nA black mist slowly spread out of his body while the shadows beneath his feet grew larger. Hundreds of black tentacles rose from the shadows as the atmosphere turned cold.

nAn ominous aura enveloped the entire place.

n

"This monster didn't want to talk. Judging from his attire, he's a monster that had high intelligence.

" The elf said while looking at Souta with an amused look.

"He's attacking us without any explanation. Such a bad manner.

"

nSouta dashed forward with a wide smile on his face. Red energy enveloped the blade of the vajra sword.

nBoom!

nThe elf raised his head while blocking Souta's sword with a short dagger.

n

"Let me introduce myself first. I'm Gremina, Gremina Vanti. People called me Future Cutter.

"

nA surge of mana exploded within his dagger and it pushed Souta several meters away.

nBoom!

n

"What a funny nickname for an elf.

"

nSouta laughed as his aura grew stronger once again. The Possession was activated before he charged at the elf once again.

n

"Keke! As expected of a fourth stage monster! You can understand me!

"

nThe elf laughed as he stepped forward.

nBoom!

nBoth of their weapons collided causing shockwaves in the surrounding.

n

"I want to play with you but I have to do something first.

"

nThe elf said in a low voice while shifting his body to avoid Souta's sword. Then, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the monster's wrist.

nSouta tried to move away but the grip of the elf was stronger than he imagined. He used the power of gravity to push him away while the black tentacles strangled him.

nShadow Ball!

nNo, it was useless. It was shredded into pieces along with the black tentacles. Even the four shadows that were holding the other two experts were torn into tiny pieces.

nBoom!

nThe elf was a person at Two Shackles Realm. He was many times stronger than One Shackle Realm.

nHe just released his sharp energy and most of Souta's skills were destroyed in an instant.

nUgh!

nSouta suddenly felt a pain in his side. His eyes moved and saw his hand spinning in the mid-air. Then, his body flew away and crashed into the walls causing the place to tremble.

n

"Finish him.

" The elf said before he turned around.

nThe two people nodded at his words. One was a beast man while the other one was a female dwarf. Both of them were at One Shackle Realm.

nUgh!

nSouta spat a mouthful of blood as he glanced at the two people in front of him.

n

"Damn! That **ing hurts!

"

nHe stood up and cracked his neck. His hand slowly regenerated quickly, shocking the two people. His regeneration power was out of this world.

n

"Eh~ this is not the end.

"

nSouta laughed as several layers of flesh covered his body. His aura flared up and it generated a powerful force that blow the rocks around him.

nHunting State!

nSerial Killing Step!

nBlessing of the God of Hunt!

nAlong with these three, he also activated the Gravitational Ball once again. It was included in the skills that the elf destroyed so he had to waste his energy to cast in once again.

nFour shadows rose behind him. The Doppelganger were active again.

n

"I'm done with you guys.

"

nSouta gave the two people a cold look. Black and white energy gushed out of his body like a tsunami. Then, blood poured out and turned into armor.

nBlood Armor: Jade Spider!

nSwoosh!

nHis figure vanished before the two's eyes. They could barely follow him with their eyes.

nThe beast man opened his eyes widely as he heard a loud sound explode beside him. Then, his comrade was flung away before beams of light and dark shoot her figure.

nBoom!

n

"Shit!

" Goosebumps appeared on his body as he tightened his fist. He quickly turned to his left side and crossed his arms.

nBang!

nA powerful force landed on his arms and felt his bones cracking. His body flew like a rocket crashing into the thick walls.

n

"Four minutes left.

"

nSouta muttered as he glanced at the system. He had to kill these two people first before he fight the elf. If he didn't finish these two, there's a chance that they would disturb him when he fought the elf.

nHe didn't want that to happen as a moment of distraction could lead to his defeat when fighting someone at Two Shackles Realm.

nMost of the members of the Red Matter in the Fone Kingdom were fighting the people from Athen's Champion. They were lucky that they discovered the warriors of Athena first. The higher-ups of the organization knew that this day was coming so they were prepared.

nAs for the Titanous Victor Golem, Gremina didn't know where did they get this kind of rare thing. Although he wanted an answer, all he had to do for now was to activate it and kill most of the warriors above.

nThis golem was dispensable. After the golem exhausted the strength of the warriors, he would appear and kill them one by one. It was a good plan.

n'Keke, the other groups are using the same thing... Athen's Champion. Do they really think that we didn't know their plan? Do they really think that we didn't know that they are here to attack the main base?'

nGremina laughed inwardly. He looked up and thought that he should've asked some people to stay here. But he couldn't underestimate the power of the Athen's Champion. That's why almost everyone went on the surface leaving the three of them here to activate the golem.

n

"I'm finished...

"

nHe said with a satisfied look. Then, his expression turned serious as he looked behind.

nCountless webs were stuck everywhere and two of his comrades were wrapped. Their limbs were chopped hanging on the webs as blood kept dripping from their wounds.

nThey were on their way to the afterlife. Their injuries were serious and they would die if not treated immediately.

nLooking at this scene, Gremina sighed.

"These two are useless. No, I think they've underestimated this monster. It doesn't matter anymore. I already finished the activation, the golem will wake up in just a few minutes.

"

nHe raised his head and looked at the figure standing on the webs close to the ceiling.

n

"Keke, an intermediate-level fourth stage.

"

nHe took out a small device from his pocket and pressed the button. A strong barrier formed on the machinery behind him. He knew that if this monster used his release form, then the aftershocks of the battle would be dangerous. It could potentially disturb the activation.

nBlack mist covered the monster.

nGremina moved his eyes to the spot several meters away in the northeast. It was covered in black mist but he could sense the best feram coming from that place.

n

"Here.

"

nHe dashed while taking out the short dagger that he used before. This dagger was an inferior quality red grade. He got this dagger from exploring a dungeon after he killed all the monsters living inside it.

n'This guy isn't going to buy time? He wanted to fight me in an all-out battle even though he could just wait for the golem.'

nSouta was a little bit surprised. A huge smile formed on his face. He couldn't hide his excitement.

n

"I like it. If you want to fight, then I'll give you a battle that you want.

"
