But just directly going to an area where a S ranker was supposed to stay was dangerous. For that reason, the team decided to split into two groups. Amongst the S ranker powerhouses, there was a one lady with four eyes and hands and she decided to team up with Elena. As for the other boys, they made a team of their own together.

Then they decided that the boys were going to directly berge in to attack the base while the ladies would be keeping an eye on the situation from outside. If they noticed something abnormal or dangerous then the ladies would notify the boys and would try to help them to escape the danger. And if there were no special danger, then the ladies would join the men to exterminate the Dhanoses crowding in that area.

With the plan made, all the powerhouses immediately started going to the mentioned location without wasting any time.

...

The area where the hidden base was located was a hidden valley in the middle of a mountain forest. It was in a very obscure location and without the knowledge of its existence it was extremely hard to find. Elena and the other lady named Nastrudamas did not go down the valley, they were just staying outside it while observing the situation inside.

As soon as the other four men attacked the valley, one S ranker did show up. Like the other S rankers he was also a little bit hurt all over his body but that was most probably not going to hurt his combat strength.

Then combat started between them and it was quite intense. The opponent was a mage, so that person tried to maintain his distance while continuing to throw spells to throw the men. But as anyone would expect, one single person was definitely not strong enough to match four strong people. So in no time the enemy S ranker found himself in dire straits.

After observing the combat for some time, Nastrudamas wanted to join the men. Like most other demons, she was also a battle loving person, sitting this battle out was giving her stress. But before she could jump down the valley, Elena stopped her and pointed toward a direction.

Nastrudamas looked at the place where Elena was pointing and showed a bee comb-like structure. But before she could take a closer look at what it was, the whole valley suddenly got covered in a milky white barrier. Not only that but two other S rankers also suddenly appeared out of nowhere and attacked the others from behind.

This whole area turned out to be a well planned trap for the S rankers. After the hiding powerhouses revealed themselves, the S ranker who was in a dire situation took out a powerful item which increased his strength by quite a bit. So for all this time, this man was hiding his strength.

As the situation looked troublesome, Elena and Nastrudamas decided to help the men out. They immediately attacked the barrier from outside in order to break it. But the barrier was actually connected to the Shelter of Dependency established in this area. So without destroying the whole mountain area, it was impossible to completely destroy the barrier. But still Elena and Nastrudamas were able to create a hole in it and through the hole, they entered the barrier to help the men out.

It looked like the enemy S rankers had also not expected more S ranker to show up so soon. So they panicked a little bit. But the S ranker who only had a single hand calmed his comrades down and took out a ball like object shining in creepy dark red and black colour as soon as that ball appeared, all the S rankers felt an immense threat and pressure to their existence.

But before they could do anything, the one handed man threw the ball up and it disintegrated midair and formed a large magic circle. Seeing that magic circle all the demons present in the area became scared, even the Dhanoses who used the item. It was an instinctual response as the magic was giving off the aura of Valhalla, a place where every demon powerhouse wanted to go one day.

...

In Valhalla there was a special area called Huxsoahelm. Even the powerful demigods roaming the Valhalla avoided this place. It was technically a city but except for residential houses nothing else was in it. No food, no entertainment, no fun. The sound that reverberated in the city were only the sound of weapon clashing and warriors' battle shouts.

Only a single special race lived in this city. That race was called "Tir Zoachre". They were a race created by the God of War Slaughter, Mardok and they only had a single goal in their life. And that was to fight. This race could not improve their power level but they were able to improve their weapon mastery. They were also born with a weapon in hand from the start, so as soon as they were born, they would start swinging the weapon to master it more and more.

Mardok's intention behind the creation of this race to see if a race could break their level limits in terms of weapon mastery potential if their whole life was dedicated to a single weapon and nothing else. And that experiment was a success as quite a few of the Tir Zoachre were able to reach unseen heights with their weapons.

But in the process of giving this race an unhealthy obsession with weapons and a one minded approach to master it, Mardok forgot to give them much space to feel emotion. So this race turned out to be a cold blooded emotionless murderer who killed any and everything that stood in their way. There was even a time when a large amount of Valhalla's population was slaughtered by these weapon swinging maniacs.

For that reason Mardok punished them and cursed them to stay inside the borders of Huxsoahelm. But as they were still a successful experiment of his, he still wanted them to have an identity, a proof of their existence. So he created various items and scattered them around the world. These items had low grades but they gave off an extremely powerful aura.

These items were capable of summoning a certain number of Tir Zoachre warriors to be used in a battle. These warriors would kill everyone in the location of the summoning except for the summoner who was responsible for summoning them and then would go back to Huxsoahelm to continue their training. Mardok created this item to give the Tir Zoachre the identity of an unstoppable army of slaughter and destruction. The ball that the one handed man had just used one such item.

Now what was going to happen in this hidden valley.
