After a while, they came across another worm, and the man said. ''You can actually kill it from a distance because nobody is acting as the tank this time. Due to its slow movement and lack of other defenses besides its hard spines, this strategy may be less complicated for you. ''

The blonde girl and the young man with the glasses exchanged glances before deciding that this might be the best way to fight it. They quickly decided to use this strategy since they were both ranged attackers and started moving toward the worm.

They didn't even bother to look at Raydon. He was a noob in any case, and they weren't expecting much from him.

They moved stealthily and slowly until they thought they were close enough to the worm, then they prepared to strike.

"This time, watch where you aim." The blonde girl spoke in a low voice and wore a skeptical look.

The young man with the glasses did not respond to the girl. His facial expression made it obvious that he was still bothered by his headache and ringing in his ears. Meanwhile, Raydon and the man in the suit were once again watching. The man cast a sidelong glance at Raydon, but without saying anything, returned his attention to the upcoming fight.

''I'll attack first, and then you can start attacking right away.'' The blonde girl said as she lifted her bow and aimed.

At that moment, just as the blonde girl was about to shoot the arrow, a wild bird's scream could be heard resonating through the hills.

*Screeech*





Then, with unimaginable speed, a huge bird resembling an eagle swooped down and dug its sharp talons over the shoulders of the blonde girl before quickly soaring away.

''Aghh, Noooo… '' The blonde girl screamed in pain and terror as the monster bird lifted her into the air.

''Damn. '' The young man raised his staff and was about to use a skill on the bird when he remembered he had just accidentally killed one of his teammates. He halted to prevent the same thing from happening again and fixed his gaze on the man in the suit.



When he noticed the man standing by and doing nothing while watching the bird carry the girl into the air, he yelled. ''Hey, help her. Why aren't you taking action? ''

The man turned to the young man when he heard this question and sighed.

''I'm sorry, but I don't possess a skill that can influence long distances. I additionally witnessed the bird's talons pierce her chest. Before I do anything, she'll probably be dead.''  During his speech, the man appeared incredibly helpless.

When the young man saw his helpless expression, he couldn't blame him and accepted it. ''What the hell is going on? How did that bird appear out of nowhere? How could a monster be that fast in an F-Rank match? ''

The monster bird moved so quickly that it was too late for even the level 11 item holder to intervene in time. Even Raydon didn't believe he could avoid this attack.

''I believe that was the region boss,'' the man mumbled.

''So, it was like that. It makes sense now.''  The youth with the glasses stated, believing that this was the only explanation.

''So, what are we going to do now? There are only three of us left, and we have only one team point. In addition, I believe we ought to leave before the region boss gets back. '' The young man hurriedly approached the man in the suit and said, nervously scanning his surroundings.

''I'm here, and we can still win, so don't worry. Let's find the next mob first. '' The man's words caused the young man to loosen up a bit. He was really hoping to win this match.

''Scan. ''

The man demonstrated his skill by striking the ground with his cane once more. "Well, the next mob isn't too far away. Looks like a worm again. Let's go. ''

The group departed once more on the man's assurance. Raydon continued to follow without expressing anything other than a smile.

Following a while of walking, the man abruptly stopped and said, pointing beneath a large rock that resembled a hill.

''Do you see that? '' A set of boots and a green cape were visible where the man was pointing.

"Wait... Don't these belong to that girl? '' The young man exclaimed in shock, ran over to the man, and took a nervous glance up at the sky.

"Don't tell me, did we unintentionally enter the region boss's territory? We should leave right away. If that monstrous bird comes back, it will kill us as well. '' The young man's voice started to quiver. The mere thought of Region Boss coming back and attacking them was nearly enough to make him shit himself.

''Don't worry, I didn't detect the region boss when I used the scan skill last time.  Probably not nearby. Furthermore, those items can be extremely valuable. Why don't you go and get them? ''

When he heard this, the young man came to a sudden halt. ''Item'' and ''valuable'' were two of his favorite words. After a while of staring at the items, he swallowed and asked the man. "Don't you want? "

''I already have a complete set of items, so I don't believe those items will be useful to me.  Additionally, you were the one who was constantly fighting up until this point, so it would be better for you to get them. '' He spoke with consideration.

The young man said after reflecting on the man's goodness and fairness. "All right, I'll quickly get it. Are you certain that the region boss is not nearby? ''

"Yes, I'm certain. To be more certain, let me check once more. ''

''Scan.''

...

"Yes, I'm more certain now. It's not around. '' The man quickly became more certain and said.

Now that he appeared completely at ease, the young man thanked the man and proceeded to approach the items hidden beneath the rock with caution. When he realized there was no threat he continued to approach slowly then he sped up, picked up the items, and exclaimed joyfully.

''Haha, I got them. Wow, these look great…

...

Hm? ''
