I floated in the night sky as thoughts continued to churn in my mind. Hours went by as nothing out of the ordinary happened. When the light began to appear on the horizon, I had made a monuntal decision for my actions from here on out
The cover of the night was pulled away as the walled city and desolate Barrens revealed themselves to . Far from the city, there were many moving dots that made for a terrifying sight. At the forefront of these dots were three large TITANS that moved around nacingly. More and more beasts were coming from all around to join this larger crowd as the dots kept on increasing
The scene reminded of the pictures of the horde of beasts with the large turtle in the middle that were also making its way towards the Empire, albeit the sight in front was at a smaller scale.
The monuntal decision I had made while I was floating in the night sky this past night was to start moving independently. As great as it was to mix around with others, it was also limiting . I was planning on going all over the Empire to clear out the dungeons and beasts that have popped out, before going ahead and facing the incoming horde of enemies after
This was moving faster. I would start with the collection of beasts amassing themselves around this city first. My eyes were on the three moving TITANs whose figures beca even clearer with the sun breaking through the horizon.
One was a large bear with claws drenched in black, another was an arctic fox with white flowing fur, and the last was a white panda hoisting a sizable tree trunk on its back.
I began acting while staying in the skies, starting off with multiple casts of [Infernal Purge]. The dark red flas that were terrifyingly hot rushed down towards the gathering of beasts below.

Elizabeth was watching an alarming image of collections of monsters outside the city. What alard her the most was the droves of flas that were now falling down and burning everything on site
She had not been able to get a wink of sleep last night, and she doubted anyone would have. They had received signals about the gathering of beasts outside the city a few hours ago and were already moving the tired hunters to fight as soon as dawn broke
She ca to the forefront at the destroyed portion of the wall, only for the sight in front of her to present itself. The dark flas were the first thing she saw, when she looked to where they were coming from, she saw the hazy figure of a man she soon recognized in the sky
Her mind was much calr as she saw this, and she thought about the incomprehensible power that Noah seed to have. She had thought he was a better than average rank A and chose to let loose with him for a night just to forget about the grimness she had been dealing with all this while. It was a great ti, but she felt like she really couldn’t approach this man that sa way again. He just seed too strong and intimidating currently, becoming a different person overnight
She also knew herself and she didn’t think she was the type of woman that deserved soone like him. Looking at the destruction he was bringing down on beasts that they would have to spend hours fighting, she knew soone like him wouldn’t stay in one place for too long. A person of his caliber deserved sobody that wasn’t damaged, and was ant for much greater things. A sad expression passed by her face as she depreciatingly thought about this
She thought of the attack yesterday as she watched the monsters outside the city howl as flas kept on falling onto them and lting their ranks clean through. That attack had occurred the mont they began destroying dungeons. Anger rose in her as she thought about this. That attack was deliberate. Their enemy was much stronger than they were, and they knew nothing about them
She looked to the skies once more as she hoped. She just hoped they now had soone just as strong that would stand by their side. She was planning on staying in Star City for quite a while to take care of things that might fall apart because of the absence of a great friend of hers.
He had saved her once in the past and owed a great deal to him, and yet she wasn’t even there when he died. Her wrathful heart was getting so relief as she watched three TITANs angrily rushing around the other beasts avoiding flas. They had tried jumping to reach the target in the sky, but this resulted in even more grueso injuries as patches of their body were lted from the continued rushing flas
Elizabeth looked at this ridiculous sight of three rank A BOSSes that effectively could not do a single thing to the man in the skies and thought maybe, just maybe, they would be alright.
The monsters began dispersing as they couldn’t deal with the attacks coming down, and this was when another attack was introduced. Circular explosive blasts of cold elents wrecked the area where the monsters were in, blowing them to smithereens and only leaving behind blue flas
With the combination of flas and these cold blasts, a majority of the beasts were destroyed or sent running. The three TITANs did not make it out alive as their bodies lay burnt and frozen in the chaotic Barrens
She, along with the other hunters placed on the broken walls looked up to the figure in the sky in reverence and fear. He hadn’t co down even once, but the horde of beasts lay dead around him.

After watching the unbelievable show of the decimation of beasts, hope rose in the hearts of many as they looked to the future. Communications were properly established and they were able to get a better grasp of the situation around them. The Empire’s capital was damaged, but still standing because of the strength of Steel Mikhail. Other cities that had rank A hunters and a multitude of rank B’s were able to bring things under control, but the deaths were in the millions for many cities, with others completely destroyed
News from the United Federation was just as grim, with so countries destroyed and others turning lawless. People from all sides were living in fear as this scene from so ti ago repeated itself.
Sothing even more disastrous was a new threat that had just appeared. Besides the large horde of beasts coming towards the Empire, another had ford and was targeting the United Federation. This horde had sothing that made many people tremble in fear, it was a mythical beast they hadn’t seen before, a dragon. News from those that saw this beast and were still alive said it had co out of a monolith larger than any of the currently doc.u.nted ones, and that it spelled destruction for the entire world
When the images were first seen, the officials did not want to believe it. The dragon was not carrying out indiscriminate destruction, but occupied a few countries and declared himself King. Any hunters that dared to defy him would be killed without question. Sothing even more startling was that this was the first beast that was able to communicate with the humans, making commands and reformations that the occupied countries had to follow
This threat was sothing they did not know how they could possibly deal with. Leaders were panicking with no options in sight as at this sudden developnt. Were their lands about to be taken over by foreign invaders?
Amidst all of this, a new hero was rising above the destruction to bring a semblance of hope towards the people. Because of him, one particular city in the Empire faced the lowest number of casualties. He was a versatile mage that fought in the front lines tirelessly casting skill after skill with boundless energy. He was the peak rank A Hunter known as Noah Osmont.
