Chapter 80
The battlefield was still, heavy with despair.
Not only had Shae fallen to her knees in hopeless surrender, but even Bron—the indomitable Bron—looked utterly defeated. His armor was cracked, his face pale and bloodied, his shoulders sagging beneath the weight of exhaustion and failure. He stared blankly ahead, his hands trembling.
Shin clenched his teeth.
"Co on, guys... don’t give up now," he thought desperately, forcing himself upright despite the pain wracking his body.
With a groan of effort, he summoned his remaining energy. Ten glowing arrows materialized behind him, trembling from instability but packed with intent. He pulled his bowstring, eyes locked on the monstrous bat-like creature towering in the distance.
"Haaaah—!" he released the arrows.
They whistled through the air.
But halfway toward their target, the monster raised a clawed hand with a casual flick.
CRACK.
The arrows shattered like glass, disintegrating into harmless particles.
Shin collapsed to one knee, coughing blood. That was all he had left.
No more tricks. No more strength. No more hope.
The remaining guild mbers, barely two hundred in number, watched it all unfold in silence. Their eyes darted between the monster and their defeated elites. Their leaders—once their pillars of strength—now looked completely broken.
Then... the worst ca.
A new wave of beasts erged from behind the portal boss. Dozens upon dozens of them.
These weren’t the usual hulking monsters—they were sleek, fur-covered lizard beasts, their red eyes gleaming with hunger and bloodlust. Fast and nimble, they rushed forward like a living tide of death, charging at the shell-shocked guild mbers.
The survivors, bruised and battered, staggered back. Many had weapons but no will. They were past their limits. So trembled so hard they couldn’t lift their arms.
Even Silver Wing, their shining hero, sat slumped on the ground, guilt eating away at him. He had failed them. His ultimate move had left him too drained to move, and now they would all die because he was too weak to finish it.
One young girl tried to scream, but her voice cracked.
A shaking guild mber raised his hand, trying to warn the monsters away.
"D... d-don’t... c-co... c-clo..."
Closer.
The lizard beasts leapt—fifteen of them, claws out, jaws open.
Just as they were about to land—
"Inferno Vortex!"
FWOOOOOOOSH!
A swirling cyclone of flas erupted in mid-air, engulfing the lizard beasts and vaporizing them in seconds. Their screeches were cut off instantly, replaced by a wave of heat that rolled over the battlefield.
Before anyone could react, the ground shook.
BOOOOM!
A massive hamr slamd into the earth, creating a shockwave that flattened the monsters nearby. The gravity in the area shifted—intensified. The remaining beasts were yanked down violently, their bodies crushed into the dirt as the pressure increased tenfold.
Bones cracked.
Limbs broke.
Then, they splattered like overripe fruit.
The monsters that remained froze. Even their primitive instincts scread one word:
Danger.
They turned to run.
But too late.
A voice echoed from above, calm and deadly:
"Oga Beam."
A searing golden light burst from the sky.
KRAAAAK-BOOOOOOM!
A beam of imnse power blasted across the field, vaporizing a huge swath of the fleeing beasts. Those caught in the energy blast were simply erased.
As the survivors tried to regroup—
A blur moved between them.
One of the retreating lizard beasts turned to attack—
But now, a man stood in its place.
Blades drawn.
A flash.
"Forty Splitting Strikes."
The man—dual swords in hand—danced through the battlefield like death incarnate. With each step, a blur of steel and motion. By the ti he stopped moving, the remaining beasts dropped to the ground, lifeless and cleanly severed.
Silver Wing stared in disbelief.
So did Shae. Bron. Shin. Every single guild mber still breathing.
They had no idea what just happened.
Then footsteps echoed on the scorched ground.
A new figure erged, walking past the stunned Silver Guild elites—confident, unhurried. Silver Wing’s eyes widened as the figure passed him.
"Is that... him?" Shae whispered, breath catching.
The upstart.
But when she turned to look at the battlefield—at the sheer destruction wrought in re monts—her heart skipped.
No. These weren’t upstarts.
They were monsters in human form.
"You should rest," Han said simply, not even looking back. "We’ll take it from here."
He stopped in the center of the battlefield, facing the TWO giant monsters that had just descended... and the creature perched on one of their heads: the true Portal Boss.
"Thunderwrath," he called calmly.
Crackling lightning arced through the sky as a silver dragon materialized atop him—radiating static, licking his lips in anticipation.
"This will be fun," Thunderwrath said with a wicked grin.
More figures joined him.
Ronan, his dual swords still glowing with residual energy, crossed them with a calm breath.
Ron, gripping his hamr, slamd it once into the ground, his body wrapped in dense Earth energy, cracked his neck and braced himself.
Clara, clad in her high-tech battle suit, took to the sky, her wings unfolding like blades of light.
Then ca Aiden.
"Morph," he commanded.
His body shifted, transford—muscles twisting, bones reshaping, armor plating forming around his limbs as his skin turned dark and tallic. His eyes glowed red with raw energy.
They stood in formation—six warriors against a nightmare.
Han, the man who had spoken earlier, cracked his knuckles and narrowed his eyes.
"Let’s get this over with," he said coolly.
Then, raising his arm to the sky, he pointed toward Thunderwrath.
"rge."
