The morning fades in like a scene from bad theatre production. The cast rode bloodied Wolves as they lead other green creatures about, they project their excited voices as far as they could, barely holding back their excitement.
'Twilight melted away, majestic sunrise, red orange glow seeping over the horizon as if the light itself was being poured from a molten sun. Powerful rays flood over the landscape lighting every blade of grass, shining from each leaf... Those were the words the author used to describe every morning after the purple moon...' Alex mused as he looked at the sky, He remembered how they always teased the author of not having any other word to describe such mornings.
"Well it does leave an impression..." He muttered, as he looked at the ferocious looks of his people. They had vented out whatever needed to be vented out and now they were returning home.
Most of his inner circle have leveled passed Level twenty five with this night raid alone. Nazu on the other hand, had been glaring at him throughout the return trip and he couldn't help finding it funny, He had made sure to block most her chances in earning a major achievement. But surprisingly she hadn't complained, perhaps she had taken it as a challenge or something, of course Alex never planned to make it easy and he wasn't the only one trying to thwart her actions, even Largash seemed out to get her for some reason.
Now they were only a few minutes away from Black moon town, Alex could spot villagers clearing the corpses of first circle magical beasts that looked like they had killed each other, He couldn't help but grin at the free food that came and sacrificed themselves at their doorstep. Increasing Alpha's pace, He made his way to the town gates, eager to get a report on what had happened. The others tried to keep up as much as possible, after all they had seen what Alex had seen.
______
""'"My Chief!""'Everyone quickly saluted, Alex could only nod as he dismounted in front of Dabok, Alpha on the other hand couldn't be bothered with what was going on and began to loiter around in an idle manner.
"What happened" Alex asked while motion towards the corpses with his jaw.
Dabok was all smiles as he said, "Something here must have attracted them, but they ended up fighting each other, it was like they were competing for land".
"So they all died?" Alex couldn't help asking in shock but Dabok's face seemed to change drastically, if he were human, he would have a face mixed with excitement and fear.
"No something beat them all in the end, it evolved, right here and then before killing the rest."
"What?...What kind of magic beast would that be, that would be that powerful at the second circle of evolution?" Alex was dumbfounded, normally magic beast had it rough, after they evolve into the second circle of evolution, they experience weakness for a short while due to them not being used to their human like body, it's only after a day or two that they usually recover. Alex wouldn't be silly as to think it was a dragon, after all, there was only records of one being alive and it was hibernating at this time.
Even if it was a new born dragon, they would already be in the third circle at least from birth.
"It looked like that at first" He said while pointing at Alex's tiger tattoo.
"WHAT?!!" Alex's surprised shout made the others stop what they were doing and looked at him but he didn't care at this point. He felt like someone was joking with him, There were no records of tigers in the Novel at all or could it be something that had been influenced by him and the system?...
"It looked like that" Dabok motioned with his jaw, He felt confused but answered again.
Alex quickly calmed down, 'it seems like I'm really mentally exhausted, why lose my cool over nothing...'
"Old Dabok has done well getting the people to clear the surrounding, we'll continue our discussion in the Manor later" He quickly said this before turning towards the fighters that had followed him back, "Everyone, get some rest"
"Lovan, count all our new members and bring it to me later" After giving out this task to the only who was good with numbers, he quickly retreated in order to get some rest and ask the system some questions.

To the south of Thann's end,
At the out skirts of the Orc lands,
Frank, a knight under the Moongret family and a squad of fifteen other knights were to escort the Holy knights in training. in translation, They were to escort 8 kids to the place suspected to be where the champion of the 'Evil' God appeared.
Now however....
They found a huge deposit of Mana crystals and Aether, so they chose to return with those first before going further, but they forgot to ask the owner of the house first.
A swarm of eight eyed bees emerged from the unknown almost instantly covered the empty area outside the cave.
These creatures were known for two things, how they literally suck out Mana from ones body and their fear for fire.
"What do we do now?" she cried, Davis looked at this companion with a sigh, if she wasn't the best healer, he wouldn't have agreed to bring her along.
Romanus, who was running in the front, turned his head and yelled at the knights behind him. These bees were not very fast with the liquified mana in their system but the occasional ones without this condition was very fast. However, their number could not help but make one's scalp go numb.
"These types of missions are just sending us to our deaths!" a knight cried as he dashed away in break neck speed
"Aaaargh!"
"This is crazy" Carl cried out as he stared at the now empty husk of a knight that dropped on the floor.
"Don't stop moving" Davis yelled.
As they ran, they looked back at the insect swarming behind them from time to time and did not forget to let out a curse or two.
Frank who acted as the rear guard, had long disappeared from sight. Perhaps he had died, but Davis couldn't be bothered with him right now.
He had already lifted up Joan into his arms and silently prayed, "Oh heavenly Father, grant me speed, that I may protect your people"
"What are you doing??!? do you want to die?"
Everyone knows that once you activate your Mana, it's like a beacon to this things, so they didn't understand why Davis would this at a time like this but...
"Here!" Davis yelled before tossing Joan towards Rudy and dashing in another direction, leaving the others speechless.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
