"Hmm?"

'Could it be that jinxing is real?!'

"We finally found one of those special 'Demon Caves'..."

Just one day and a half into my rest period, I was asked to go to the head's room for something important, and while I was sad about my lazing time getting cut, it was actually better as I wouldn't have to wander around aimlessly searching for the Two-floor gates…

'So these are those who would join my exploration…?'

I looked around to see a moderately muscle man with a greatsword on his back, a slim woman who seemed to have a presence similar to the wind, and surprisingly the little 'Storm-Bringer' girl, Ellona.

"But we didn't find it on our own…"

"What do you mean…?"

"We received a report that a 'Demon Cave' that appeared out of nowhere has erupted and several 'Demons' that have similar features to the one you left here before…"

'As expected… so that was their plan…?'

Hiding gates using some sort of special means and sending their own people to release the demons was indeed a great plan, only that…

'How did they manage to bypass the tests?'

It shouldn't have been hard to find traitors with enough strength to finish the fighting tests similar to the whole 'Minotaur siege' thingy, but why would a person who is able to pass the Trial test be a traitor was the million dollar question…

"The closest members were already sent there to suppress the surge of 'Demons' but that's only a temporary measure, that's why we will be sending you, the leader and the only member of 'Demon Hunter', and three of the strongest from our First Special unit to control this and make sure to finish off the 'Dark Lord'... or should I say the 'Demon Lord' of this gate!"

"Understood."

"Acknowledged, sir!"

"Mmm…"

"You won't be restricted to travel together due to speed difference, take one map before leaving and make sure to arrive there as fast as possible."

"Then we will go with Ellona, right Mike?"

"Of course!, Ellona method is really fast and group-friendly, Pretty Convenient!"

"It's decided then, take care of us Ellona!"

"Mmmm…"

"Oh right, do you wish to come together as well?"

"Thanks, but no thanks, I like to travel alone."

"Well, as you wish, let's get going~"

Leaving the headquarters together with them, I didn't head out immediately as I was quite curious which method would this mysterious Ellona be using to be described as the two members mentioned it.

At this point, I expected lots of generic possibilities, but once I saw the actual method, I had to say that I was quite impressed…

This 'Storm-Bringer' Inheritance was truly something!

'So just like 'Lightning Swordsman' the actual inheritance tells more than just the ability boosts that appear in its description according to the testament ark…'

Just by clapping her hand, an actual cloud that reminded me of that popular series once again, being bigger as to handle three people at once appeared in front of the group of three as they hopped into it before accelerating ahead with a great speed!

'That's actually quite comparable to 0.75x of my current top speed…'

That was almost similar to controlling water elements (Water vapor) to create this cloud, and accelerating it with lightning, which meant that 'Storm-Bringer' pretty much has the ability to stimulate close-related weather elements that the user doesn't have an affinity with…

'She can almost pass as Tri-Element user…'

"Haha, you must be regretting that you didn't get aboard while you had the chance, better luck next time."

"Don't be like that Eleya, you can still come aboard if you want."

Hearing the far away voices, I shrugged as I activated 'Hurricane Steps'.

"Well, Whatev-"

"Woah!"

Easily keeping up with them, I decided to go just slightly ahead of them as I believed it was still better to arrive together, after all, this trip would only take two hours at this speed, and by going at full speed, I won't be able to cut more than half an hour from that time…

Sure, I could still give it a try if I was dealing with demons in a closed base, but I was still far from being able to deal with a scattered army while having to deal with the boss or the 'Overseer' of that base, not to mention the guy who actually set them free…

"Ok, ok, I understand, you are pretty cool Mister 'Demon Hunter', you can get on if you want…"

"Mmm..."

'Oh?'

That 'Storm-Bringer' Ellona seemed to be inviting me herself but she didn't seem to talk as much, but since I have already decided to go at a similar speed, it wouldn't be bad to continue using this two hour journey to rest!

`~~`~~`~~`

115 minutes later...

Dark clouds filled the sky as we almost arrived at the expected gate place…

'This might be a bit too much…'

Seeing far into the distance I could already see the destruction that filled the green plains that now turned black and the numbers of the demons who came out…

'10000 at the very least…'

"I will go ahead first don't be late!"

I jumped off the cloud as I activated 'Hurricane Steps' moving forward in hopes of decreasing the numbers before the 'Overseer' of this gate revealed himself.

'Where is he…?'

Though I was wondering as such, I quickly equipped my dual crossbows, and started aiming, triggering and accelerating the arrows which were infused with the 'Thunder' & 'Wind' concept with the help of my 'Telekinesis'...

[ You have absorbed the blood essence of a 'Demon Soldier', purification in progress… ]

[ You have received 128,259 EP! ]

[ You have absorbed… ]

[ You have… ]

The notifs kept coming to my head as the seconds passed, giving me small amounts of EP, but while I was killing at a rate of 3~7 per second, I was still worried as I continued to search for the 'Overseer' of this gate…

'Did this gate have no overseer…?'

There was no way that a bigger army base would have no overseers, right?

[ You have leveled up! ]

Just then, after killing my 1967th demon and receiving the leveling up notif, I found the irregularity of this situation…

A man standing in the middle of the army who seemed to shine brightly like some sort of a protagonist, yet covered by ominous dark cloud...

"Hahaha, this body is just too great! hahaha..."

He also seemed to be the first player that I met since entering the 'Lost Realm'....
