n*ROAR*

n*ROAR*

n*ROAR*

n*AWOOOO*

n*SCREEEEE*

nSeveral extremely loud beasts could be heard howling, roaring, or screeching, every sound that came out of them sending shudders through the spines of everyone no matter who it was.

n'Diamond tier beasts' Everyone powerful enough to feel their power thought at the same time as sweat drenched their backs and their eyes shook with hints of madness.

n'We are **ed'

nFrom the horizon, 5 figures could be seen walking, crawling, and flying into the scene with a menacing aura's surrounding them and pouring out of them like an active volcano in the P-T mass extinction 250 million years ago.

n

"They- The-They are like geysers of mana

" One man stuttered

n

"Run... WE NEED TO RUN! WE ARE GOING TO DIE! AHHHHH

"#

n

"I love you, Jasmine! Before we die, can I kiss you once? Then I can die happy!

" Another man began to sob with waterworks flooding out of his eyes like waterfalls.

n

"NO! MY FAMILY! I WANT TO SEE MY FAMILY!

"

n

"DAD! MOM! HELP!

"

nSimilar scenes occurred throughout the entire battlefield while at the same time, others sat there in silence, unable to comprehend the idea of having to die in this battle.

nMany of them thought that this would be an easy money pull while others thought that this would be a way for them to brag in the future to their parents, family members, or friends.

nThey wanted to have pride in something, or they had been pulled here by their greed or need for money to feed their families.

nEveryone here had a different story, yet in reality, it was all the same.

nThey were humans and they were driven here for money or prestige, and no matter what their end goals were, in the end, their immediate goals were the same.

nYet, the moment they locked eyes with the goddess of death, they could not help but tremble or go crazy.

nEvery one of them knew that they could die in battle, yet it was only the old ones who truly understood what that meant.

nAnyone can fight with their lives on the line, yet not everyone can fight to know that they will die.

nLike a wise man once said

"If you are ready to kill, you must also be ready to be killed

"

n

"Xela! Can you use that thing again?

" Throid roared from a few dozen meters away, yet his voice was crystal clear.

n

"No, not now! I need at least 5 minutes to get it ready and even by then, I can only do it one more time. This necklace only has two charges and it takes way too long to recharge it normally.

" The gritted her teeth in helplessness, who knew that her injury would have caused this kind of effect on her, even 7 years later.

n'I used to be the strongest' She slowly looked up and locked eyes with a golden-furred gorilla that was at least 4 times larger than the last one.

n'These animals... they used to be nothing...' She snatched her staff that she had impaled into the muddy ground and lifted it up while twirling it around in the air.

n'Yet... YET! YET ONE BEAST! ONE DAMNED BEAST WAS ALL IT TOOK TO MAKE ME THIS WEAK!' She bellowed inwardly in rage with a voice that did not seem to be her own.

n

"I'LL KILL EVERY ONE OF YOU DAMNED BEASTS!

" She roared, her voice resembling a beast's more than a human's.

n

"Ah... She went crazy

" Alan looked at her in pity before going back to slaughtering all the smaller beasts like cattle.

nXela began chanting like a monk praying to his god. Every word was clear while every hand sign she performed created a runic pattern alongside it. It was as if she was making three spells at the same time.

n

"AHHHHHHH

" Gold shouted in anguish after watching her best friend get killed so easily.

nDeath on the battlefield was not like those in the movies. They were not slow enough to allow the person to give their last goodbyes to everyone they knew before finally closing their eyes and falling into the hands of fate, but instead, they were quick and mostly silent. It was only those battles between powerhouses that could have created shockwaves strong enough to make them loud, yet even then, when there are others just as strong as them if not stronger fighting alongside them, their fights starts to blend in with the other fights, sometimes even being lost within the havoc of war and bloodshed.

nToday, Gold had truly understood what it meant to have to lose someone. She finally understood the pain and anguish other people felt when holding their loved ones within their arms after seeing them dead.

nShe finally knew how it felt to let the blood of your loved one soak up in your own hands as the only thing you could do was cry and cry in both rage and anguish, the anguish that could not be described nor compared to any other physical pain.

n

"I'LL KILL YOU ALL! EVERY ONE OF YOU! I'LL KILL YOU

" Another one had been completely lost within their own grievances, finally shattering the shackles that held them back from killing everything within their paths.

n

"Seems like they've gone berserk

" Clara narrowed her eyes at the two before sighing and giving them both buffs that would help them greatly in the fight that was about to come.

n*RUMBLE*

nThe sound of rumbling shook the skies above as countless clouds began to circulate simultaneously to the movement of Xela's wand.

n*ROAR*

nOne of the incoming beasts, this one being a lion with dark fur roared and began to move towards the two who were both either casting spells or using their battle intent to cover their blades with, enabling them to cut down everything and anything they see in their way.

nYet before they could even attack the beast that came towards them, a shadowy figure appeared next to the lion, slashing towards its maw with a katana shrouded in a dark energy

n

"Your fight is with me, beast

"
