Chapter 222

222 Anticipation, Pursuit, Useless Incarnation, And Contemplation

‘Hmm... Perhaps, It might’ve been an extremely secretive mission if even I wasn’t made aware of it by that person.’

The beautiful woman deliberated briefly and found her conjecture to be most likely the case. Otherwise, they would be neglecting the established dogma for their selfish reasons.

No matter the actual circumstances, she had no reason to interfere with it as long as they did not interfere with her. As such, the beautiful woman ignored the existence of the two demons for now.

However, she became further curious about the origin of the human who had been fighting against those demons.

For him to last this long against those demons, he certainly had gotten stronger since the last time she saw him, or perhaps when she saw him before, he didn’t display his full capabilities.

Either way, she was anticipating the outcome of this fight.

Whoever lost in this fight would not impact her in the slightest.

After all, for her, it would be better for both sides to perish during this fight.

The demons were invading her territory, and as for that human, he gave her a unsettling feeling, especially when she witnessed him manipulating blood like it was nothing despite being a mere human.

.....

Thus, she ignored the other humans within the forest and concentrated on their fight instead with an attentive gaze.

...

Alpheotus City.

Dungeon Exploration Occupation Society’s Building.

Inside a room on the top floor of the establishment.

At this moment, the branch Society Leader of the organization sat inside his room while silently documenting something when he sensed a familiar aura. He abruptly dropped his pen and looked in a certain direction outside the city afterward.

“This skin-crawling feeling... It’s the stench of demons with a suffocating demonic aura. The direction those auras are coming from is the Meistic Forest?”

“Just what is going on in that forest? I would check it out myself, but I can’t afford to be careless if it was a diversion used by the enemy to launch an attack on the city. I need to send those guys to check it out. After all, that was one of the reasons they came here.”

A while later.

The group of people, who came in when Randy was in the middle of meeting with the Society Leader for the first time, walked inside the room in long strides.

“Society Leader, did you feel that just now? Is that why you called on us?!” The handsome blonde-haired young man said as soon as he got inside the room.

“That’s right, I need you guys to check out what’s happening in the Meistic Forest as soon as possible. There might be casualties resulting from this.” The Society Leader calmly responded with a hint of urgency in his voice.

He then turned to face the healer, Tiana before saying: “If it comes to that, your exceptional healing and recovery skills might be required during this time, so can I count you for that?”

“Leave it to me, Society Leader.” The skimpy-dressed young woman solemnly responded, no longer displaying her playful nature.

“Alright. You’re all experienced, so I need to say much else. You guys should hurry toward the direction of that demonic aura before it’s too late.”

“Understood!” They all responded before departing the room right away.

...

As soon as they left the room, unable to contain himself, the exhilarated Gutz broke out into a peal of laughter.

“Hahaha, finally some action!!”

“Gutz, are you crazy? Can’t you be serious for a second?” Tiana said to him.

“What? Did I say something wrong? And who said I wasn’t serious?”

“Whatever, let’s go!”

A moment later, they all departed from the city and quickly headed toward the direction of the Meistic Forest at their top speeds.

...

Inside the Society Leader’s room.

“That Gutz...” The Society Leader sighed before shaking his head helplessly.

“I hope nothing bad happens this time.”

“Right, that young man also had his first request today in that forest. I only hope that we do not lose such a young prospect of our human race in this unexpected situation.”

He sighed once again, seemingly frustrated about the current situation. He sincerely wished to go out and deal with this matter himself since he would’ve been the strongest existence in Alpheotus City if those kids from the capital weren’t in his humble city at this time.

But as the Society Leader of this branch of the organization, he couldn’t simply leave the town to handle every situation that occurs during times like this. Otherwise, there would be trouble if the enemy took advantage of his moment of carelessness during one of those times.

Thus, he could only hope that his worries were for naught and that nothing drastic would happen this time.

“Those detestable demons... To dare to attack at this time... Luckily, those brats were here, so I didn’t have to venture out myself. Otherwise...” He sighed and did not continue with his words.

...

Back to the battlefield.

A few minutes ago, the two demons had fully completed their transformation with their momentum completely different from before. Just standing there, they exuded ferocious and sinister energy that aroused a sense of familiarity in Randy.

‘This unearthly sense of pressure is without a doubt the same pressure I felt at that time when I fought the chimera monster, although that one seemed chaotic, unlike these two demons’ pressure...’

Back then, just the pressure exuded from the chimera monster was enough to cause him to bleed from his orifices.

Although he was weaker during his first encounter and could easily handle it better this time, he still couldn’t afford to be careless.

Thus, as he saw the situation was turning dire, Randy instantly gave up holding back anything and decided to use all his techniques and skills to fight off these two demons. Otherwise, the fate that awaited him would be certain death.

...

Incarnation Randy realized that the current situation wasn’t looking good for either of them.

As such, incarnation Randy also tried to enter his assimilated state as they had the same thoughts.

[{[Incomplete blood knowledge. Unable to enter assimilated states]}]

“Damn it, why is this incarnation so useless at this point at this time.” Incarnation Randy cursed in frustration when he read this notification.

However, not for long, as he pondered how to increase his strength to fight against the transformed, red-scaled demon as he assumed his original self had most likely already thought of his possible solution.

...

Meanwhile, facing the menacing, transformed Black-horned demon, Randy briefly glanced at his incarnation as he fell into momentarily thought for a moment and concluded with a complicated expression.

‘Don’t tell me...’

He wanted to confirm his doubts by synchronizing with his incarnation’s mind, but he was afraid that a moment of carelessness might cost him his life.

That aside, he contemplated how to face the transformed, black-horned demon with his minuscule amount of mana points left, even after he had recovered some during the few seconds that had passed.
