"HeHaha! Playtime's over! You randy bitch!!"

​ROAAARRRRRRRRRH!!!

​HHHISSSSSSSSSSHH!!

​A tandem of colossal roars tore through the forest, and the three assassins stiffened. Their bodies were trembling in fear.

​Far behind Rahu, three colossal beasts were running towards them, their eyes red, seemingly entranced.

​A humongous dark green snake was slithering towards them, and a massive bear was dashing in their direction with claws so sharp that they split a huge tree in half just by a mere scratch by those claws.

​And finally, this one was the most terrifying; it was an enormous wolf with dense purple fur, black lightning cackling around its body every second.

​Yes. Three Soul Tempering level Demonic beasts! Such a line-up is enough to flatten several mid-tier cities.

​'Y-YOU, BASTARD, WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Ashen roared at the wounded…Rahu?

​Except…there was no Rahu at all!!!

​When they were all petrified, he had slipped through during their momentary shock.

​"You idiot! Focus on these first! We can capture that bastard later!" Fang roared and jumped high, dodging the razor-sharp claws by a hair's breadth!

​HHHHIIISSSSSSS!

​A wide mouth opened in front of Ashen, spewing deadly green poison! Darkness burst from his body to shield him, but some drops of poison still invaded his cloak of darkness.

​"AHHHH!! SHIT SHIT IT'S CORRODING MY MERIDIANS!!" Ashen screamed in agony. Even with the same level of cultivation, they stood no chance against these terrifying beasts.

​Shura was no better; he was wounded and battered in a matter of seconds as the terrifying lightning wreaked havoc inside his body.

​The land shook, and the clouds in the sky dissipated, unable to bear the sheer aura of the battle.

​"We have no choice but to kill them!! The moment we turn our backs, we are dead! Use your strongest attacks!" Fang growled. He waved his hands, and a terrifying black saber materialised in front of him.

​"Phantom Shadow Arts—NIGHT BLADE!!"

​Creepy shadows formed around the blade, coating the entire saber. His muscles bulged, and without wasting a second, he swung his blade in a terrifying arc.

​A Black shadowy arc tore through. The bear roared and slashed its claws at the arc.

​"KRRRREEE-CHHHH!"

​BOOM!

​A deadly explosion followed, engulfing everything within ten miles.

​Still, none of them were harmed except Fang, who was panting heavily as the shockwave hit him square in the face.

​Ashen was faring no better; his entire arm was dissolved in that poison. But he had managed to wound the enormous snake, evident by the hole that was gaping on its body.

​Shura's condition was the worst; half his body had been burned, and he looked like a charred potato.

​But at the last moment, he managed to strike the wolf's eyes with a sword that seemed to have been formed entirely of blood.

​Huff Huff

​"Shit, this can't go on any longer!! Find that bastard, it seems he is controlling the wild demonic beasts somehow," Shura shouted, dodging a claw coated with lightning. But it was too fast; it grazed his already charred back slightly.

​"ARGH! SHIT THIS MOTHERFUCKING THUNDER WOLF!!"

​Escape was no longer possible; it was a dead end for them.

​HHHHHISSSSSSS!

​A loud hiss was heard, turning at the source. Fang saw a horrifying sight: the colossal snake's large tooth was embedded inside Ashen's chest, tearing through his back.

​His right hand was inside the snake's body, in the last moment of sheer will-power, his hand shook. Instantly, the snake's lower body burst into pieces, gravely wounding the snake or even crippling it completely as dark smoke was coming out of its small pores.

​"F-Fang, it seems this is as f-far as I-I go, t-take…care of m-my…m-mother."

​As he said that, the light in his eyes slowly dimmed before being snuffed out.

​"NOO! SHIT!" Fang roared ferociously and directed all his anger at the damn boar, chopping its legs in with a furious roar.

​Even being an assassin, Ashen was his longest partner and a teammate. The two of them had risen from rags to where they were today.

​His sudden and humiliating death sparked fury in his already burning heart. First, a lowly ant deceives them, and now his teammate has just died.

​But fury—It could only take him somewhere, as a large sword-like tooth tore through his shoulder, ripping half his body in blood.

​"Dammit! I shouldn't have taken that mission, I'm never listening to you again…Ashen"

​He, too, fell on the ground with a dull thud. His life ended as slowly and painfully as possible.

​ROAAAARRRRR

​Seeing him dead and unmoving, the boar lunged at his nearest target—The Thunder Wolf!

​A ball of black lightning began to form inside the wolf's mouth, with a ferocious glint, and it aimed at the bear.

​RUMBLE!

​BOOM!!

​The lightning struck the already injured bear, blasting its lower body into pieces, ending the bear's life.

​But it had forgotten one thing,

"KRSHK!"

"SPRLTTT"

​A large blood sword tore through its head, blasting it into pieces. A silver crystal fell out of its head, dropping on the bloody ground.

Huff Huff

Shura knelt on the ground, catching his breath. Sitting down, he coughed a mouthful of blood; his body was half-paralyzed, his bones broken. He [Spirit Core] and [Vital Core] were damaged beyond repair.

​Just as he was about to take a healing pill to stabilise his condition.

​Clap Clap Clap Clap

​A series of claps echoed. Shura's blood ran cold as he heard a few footsteps. Turning his head, albeit with a bit of difficulty. He saw four people walking towards him.

​Of course, it was Rahu; his bleeding had stopped, but his arm hadn't grown back. Following him were three beautiful women. And a feline.

​"Wonderful!! This Daddy gives you and your friends an A++, Hahhaha!! Such a glorious day!" Rahu laughed joyfully as he surveyed the battlefield. His otherworldly violet eyes went green with greed!

​"Y-you bastard, you set us up! H-how the fuck did you control so many beasts!!" Shura hissed. His voice trembling with anger and…fear?

​"Hmph! Dead guys don't need to know."

​Saying that, he dashed towards the injured Shura, his hands forming a sword through sheer [Sword Aura].

​He slashed it at the injured Shura,

​Swoosh!

​Shura hastily raised his only hand to protect himself.

​"KRSHK!

​The sword pierced through his skin, but didn't completely sever it! Rahu's eyes widened in surprise. It seems even to an almost dead guy, he was no threat at all!

​Shura himself was shocked, wondering how a mere Body Structuring Cultivator could pierce his skin!

Just as he was contemplating, a wisp of blue fire tore through the air and struck his head, bursting it into debris!
