'Ehh, it is the final stage,' sighed Reve.

His body was hurting. As he had been forcing his activation of [Prime Mode], Reve's muscles tingled in shock. He knew that if he relaxed a bit, he would be ejected out of the mode, reverting back to the weak cat he was.

Trying to focus on the task at hand, Reve closed his eyes as he sensed his stage moving. It jammed another stage and the surface shook.

Reve was not thrown off by the shakings. It was as if he was on a boat rocking in the deepest seas. His leg fixed firmly to the surface with his eyes closed.

After a while, the shakings had stopped. The two stages had finally merged together. Reve opened his eyes to see a vast expanse. He bet he could walk from one end of the stage to the other end in more than ten hours.....of course, that was just if he was walking at a normal pace.

'Hmmm….let's see. What?'

Reve's eyes froze as he spotted his final opponent. It was a young man with a blank mask on his face. He wore a large leather cloak over his body and on his waist belt were numerous shining items.

Reve recognized the man. He was the young masked man.

He wryly smiled, 'Truly a meeting of fate.'

The two of them had fought together to slay the terror lizard. They could be considered fight buddies, yet Amethyst had other plans for them.

One of them was to die on this very stage!

Reve lightly closed his eyes again and thought about his goal, 'I need to know where the hope in saving Myrna lies. I also need to get back to Circe. I can't do any of that without passing the last obstacle!'

The moment he widened his eyes, he blurred and the wind whistled due to his sheer speed. He had activated [Morai]!

The stage was huge and there was nothing to block the sights of the opponents. They would be little trickery involved in the fight.

Reve opened his mouth and shot a basic mana blast at the masked man. He put his hands on the earth and felt the blocked nature respond to him.

They were calling him!

A magic circle appeared on the frozen earth and a few white plant whips slowly grew from the ground. A few seconds later, another Reve appeared.

The masked man saw this but it didn't matter. This clone disappeared instantly. Its figure later reappeared beside the masked man. When it took advantage of its speed and tried to punch the masked man, a knife appeared embedded in its chest.

It transformed back to lifeless plant whips.

'How did he know?' windered Reve.

Suddenly, his senses blared. The masked man had assembled a longbow from an object on its waist belt. His ki formed a blue arrow which he shot fiercely at Reve.

Reve recognized the attack. It was the part of the series of attacks that killed the terror lizard!

He frowned in displeasure. Reve placed his hands on the floor once more and the earth answered his call with the help of his three magic circles.

'[Great Tree]'

White plant whips rose from the ground and covered his body. They lushed the moment they breathed the air of the surface world. Instantly, the small plants grew to the size of an enormous tree.

With Reve at its center, they faced the sharp attack of the blue arrow.

*Fume!*

The long arrow went past the tree. It left a hole in the center of the tree, just a few inches away from Reve's position.

The cat emperor deactivated his magic spell. The first thing he noticed was a stream of arrows heading his way.

They reached him in no time and Reve was left to dance in the loopholes of the attack.

Very soon, the arrows trapped him and he was forced to block another incoming one with his hands. It punctured his right arm, leaving a fresh hole in it.

This delayed Reve's speed and another stream of arrow attacks dashed at him. The moment they got close to Reve, they exploded!

*Boom!*

Black smokes blocked the masked man's sight. After a while, they cleared and revealed a humanoid cat-like creature that lay defeated on the ground.

The masked man did not fall for this. He maintained his distance and shot an arrow at the defenseless cat. The arrow pinned the cat-like creature. It revealed its true appearance which was a great mass of plant whips.

Suddenly, the air behind him rampaged. The masked man's instinct, which had been sharpened by his lifetime in the forest, tingled. He didn't turn back.

The masked man's hands flashed beside his waist. A sharp light flew in the air and cut apart the figure behind him.

He immediately understood that the figure was yet another clone.

*Brrrng!*

His senses blared this time. He reached for his sword and executed a decisive side slash. His sword went freely in the wind; it didn't touch anything.

A foreign hand bypassed his defenses and clawed at his face. He tried to escape but it was too sudden. The hand smashed apart his face….or rather his mask.

Or rather….her mask!

...….

"F*ckery," Reve couldn't hide his surprise.

Now that the mask was gone, he saw the true appearance of the masked figure. It was a female with beautiful features.

She had clear red eyes. Her green wavy hair with red streaks moved freely with the wind. There were some tribal tattoos on her face. They were dyed red and smelled of exquisite blood.

Upon seeing this, Reve thought to himself, 'So, this is the true appearance of the amazon. Strange, why does she look familiar?!'

*Whoosh!*

In his stupor, he was caught off-guard by the amazon. She jumped at him and toppled him to the ground.

Meanwhile, his mouth still gaped as his mind was trying to tell him something.

She pointed her sword at his furry chest but she didn't do anything further. She dived her head to smell his scent and her eyes twinkled as she went deep into thoughts.

Moments later, fluent Troran echoed from her mouth, "Who are you?"
