The coalition of guilds is making their camps just south of Rex and about three kilometers away from Zrlois City entrance.

Zrolis City is surrounded by walls and it is heavily guarded by Supernaturals, the west and south of Zrolis City is a swamp that shelters mutated animals. The south of Zrolis City is where the back entrance is located, while the east and north side is an open field that spans as far as the eye can see,

The Supernatural has a dark mood, in the first battle they lost quite a number because of the sudden attack from the guilds.

Zrlois City which is under the siege of Supernatural almost falls, the humans got a sneak attack on them destroying the city from the inside but thankfully, they manage to push the humans back with the help of Brutal Grey and his elites.

The city walls are charred and burned, some even cracked opened by the guilds. It is not looking good for the Supernatural.

Inside Zrlois City,

BAM!

CRACK!

Jarvald is destroying things angrily in the middle of the city, every item, house, or even animal that is caught in his sight ends up destroyed by him.

"HOW DID THE SCOUTS GOT TAKEN DOWN?! USELESS!!", He shouted maniacally, the place that is already in ruin becomes even more destroyed because of him.

He looks at the horde of Supernatural that are putting their heads down fiercely, he wanted to kill some of them but is stopped by Vivian.

Vivian held him and said, "Calm down, the last petal is blooming. I predict the Silver Mooncress will finish this night"

Jarvald stops abruptly, he then looks at the horde with bloodshot eyes, "No matter what! We will ambush the Humans this night!"

"If you fail, then don't even hope you will keep your lives tonight!", he roared.

Vivian then walks up and said, "The humans will put their alertness at max during the night where we're stronger, so low-rank should make a commotion at the back entrance while the rest will hide in the rear. Let's make the humans think we're retreating"

After Vivian said that, the horde then immediately went on their posts according to Vivian.

Meanwhile,

Rex is sneaking through the sides, they all went inside the swamp. The swamp can shelter them from the watchtower, it is also full of mutated animals so it is unlikely for them to suspect them here.

The swamp is muddy, it is also very dark. Normal people can't possibly see where they're going inside this terrain, it is too dark for a normal human.

Plop, Plop, Plop!

The sound of their shoes colliding with the mud was heard,

"If I know it's this muddy then we should've worn other shoes", Devan said feeling annoyed, because of the mud they move rather slowly.

Rex and Liliya ignores him and focus on their surrounding,

Hiss!!

Suddenly, a big snake lunged toward Devan.

The snake is easily 20 meters long and its fangs are sharp, it hisses madly towards Devan but instead of hitting Devan, the snake stopped as if it hits something after entering three meters range from Devan.

Rex looks at the snake and saw some kind of force field rendering it unable to move forward, it opened its mouth to attack trying to pierce through the force field.

The snake bumped its fangs a couple of times towards the force field to no avail,

Devan only glances briefly towards the snake before suddenly,

Shing!!

A blitz of metallic objects slash past the snake's neck, the snake went stiff abruptly before the snake's head slid and fell to the ground.

Rex was shocked, 'What the heck is that metallic shadow I saw briefly, and what did that snake hit', he thought

Devan shrugs his shoulders before resuming.

Rex then asked, "As a team, we need to know our abilities. I'll start first, I can see clearly during the night, super strength, and super senses"

"Telekinesis, making a force field three meters around myself, and this is my main weapon I call it Willy", Devan followed as he takes out a metallic string that can hardly be seen with naked eyes.



'So the snake hit his Force Field before getting sliced by that string', Rex thought as he squinted his eyes trying to see the strings clearly.

The string is made of metal, it is so thin and sharp judging from the way that string cut off the snake's head before.

After looking at the string, Rex's eyes fall on Liliya.

He is quite curious about her power the most, even his system can't see it.

Liliya open mouth meekly then said, "I don't know where my power comes from but I call it Red Mark, the red mark I give can weaken, strengthen, explode, and track the target's power, the downside is I need to touch the target. I also have super speed"

'Red Mark? More like Death Mark', Rex thought, Lilya's power is out of the ordinary.

Liliya saw Rex's and Devan's confusion before she touches Rex's shoulder,

Then suddenly, Rex felt something clung to him like a parasite. A red mark with a weird pattern appeared on his shoulder, the red mark then glows slightly before suddenly,



Rex felt his power weaken, the red marks on his shoulder become a literal parasite that absorbs his physical power.

On the other hand, Devan is brimming with power as Rex's power is transferred to him.

"That's so cool! You definitely will be a helpful girl in this team", Devan said excitedly, he punches the trees beside him without using his telekinetic power.

BAM!

The trees collapsed easily, "You're pretty strong Rex, this is only 20% of your power?"

Rex smiles then suddenly something hits him, 'Wait, why is he excited? His stats are high enough to destroy a tree, so why?', Rex thought,

Then he realized, 'System how do you calculate someone's stats?'



Rex felt immense power coursing through his body, the 50% increase from his passive skill and 20% increase from Liliya's marks makes his stats rise tremendously.

He looks at the wavering Grendel in mid-air that is under their mercy, he then jumped up cracking the ground beneath him.

The moon shone from Rex's back,

The Grendel shiver uncontrollably, if it can talk then it might beg for mercy. It can already feel the death god peeking at it from the other side.

Rex's nails grow longer, he then slashed the Grendel's head cutting it cleanly.

If there is an onlooker seeing this scene, there is only one word to describe it, Perfect!

Blood spurt from the Grendel's neck like a fountain,

Devan then tighten Willy before the Grendel's body exploded into smithereens, the team synergy they have is off the charts!

As if they are meant to be a team,

Thud!

The Grendel's head falls to the ground making a thudding sound, fear was etched on its face even before death.

Rex's team then walks over the Grendel's remains and left the place,

Without even saying anything, they know in their heads that the fight with the Grendel just boosts their confidence in finishing their mission.
