Just like the time before, Zain was being escorted to the ground floor of the hotel they were in, but this time he wasn't alone. All the people in his cell were chosen to come out. Upon reaching the second floor, the lights illuminated their faces, allowing him to take a good look at everyone.

First, it actually made him realise how bright Anna's hair was, along with her shining blue eyes. If it weren't for all the dirt covering her body, the burn marks, and her somewhat malnourished appearance, she would have been quite the looker.

"She was part of the Zombie Hunters before. I wonder what her power is, and maybe there's a way we could use it," Zain thought.

The other seven or so other individuals didn't look all that impressive upon observing their bodies. There were a couple of confused Reborn Zombies and a few more still wearing the Zombie Hunter uniform. Zain didn't understand why they would wear such a thing even after being sent to a place like this.

"Maybe it's a way for them to show their loyalty, with the hope that they'll be taken back in," he speculated.

Last, there were just regular humans, or at least that's what Zain thought since none of them wore the Zombie Hunter uniform. There was one man who had a more serious look on his face, with straighter posture than the others. From the look in his eyes, he seemed to have more hope than the rest.

"If I were to take a guess, he's possibly in the military. The Zombie Hunters have really caught everyone in here. It looks like they don't care who they anger and they're only in this for themselves," Zain mused, reflecting on their reckless attack on the school without doing any research on their enemy.

Just like last time, Wendy could be seen at the reception of the hotel. Zain made eye contact with her, and this time it lasted longer before she pulled her head away, clearly expecting him to act today.

The target in question, Tack, the white-haired hunter, came out as enthusiastic as ever, with a big smile on his face.

"Today is a big day for all of you because there's a big event planned," Tack explained. "As you know, all of those in front of us have passed the initiation assessment, so we know they all have some strength.

"It wouldn't be fun to make them go through the same trials again. Instead, we have something else planned. So let me tell you all, if you want to live, you'll need to fight even harder than you did last time."

A lot of the participants standing there started to feel strange parts of their bodies shake. Memories were surfacing of how they had barely survived the previous events, so how would they get through this one?

Without much explanation and no room for questions, they were all escorted into the main ballroom, where the battles were to take place. The same people could be seen gathered to watch the fights, including the prominent VIP guests who would be standing on the second floor.

When Zain looked above, he noticed a woman in a sparkly dress blowing a kiss toward him.

"I bet big on you, red-haired! You better survive this one!"

It was clear that she had a favourite, but there was another VIP who was also staring at those below—an older gentleman wearing a mask. Zain could tell he was a bit older due to the wrinkles on his hands.

"None of them are a demon at least. I know that due to my own skill, but he feels oddly familiar."

Glancing at Dart, Zain noticed that he, too, was looking up at the VIPs, while the rest were more focused on the task ahead.

"Is he... Humphrey Bain? When Dart said to be patient, is this what he meant?"

"Alright, everyone, I hope you've placed your bets on who will survive this large clash event, as the whole group will be fighting together," announced the voice.

The metal restraints held by the other Hunters were lowered, and they prodded the contestants to enter the centre of the hall together.

"This is a first. They're letting us all fight together?" Anna asked.

"It looks like it, but then you should know what that means. Whatever opponent they have for us is worth putting us all together," Dart replied.

Zain had to agree, looking ahead at the double doors, now focused on whatever was about to come their way.

The large double doors opened, and immediately the first thing the group could see were three demons with their tentacles wiggling behind them in the background, but they weren't alone.

If it were just three Demons, Zain would have been confident in the group's ability to survive, considering they had already defeated at least one before. However, there was more behind them.

There were two Stage 2 Titans and one Stage 3 creature. It was the same type that Zain had fought before—large in size, with a skinny, bone-like body, but incredibly fast and agile. Zain had defeated one of these before, but without any of his weapons, this might prove to be a challenging task.

"The zombies and demons would never work together. The zombies don't even have enough intelligence to do such a thing. It looks like what Wendy said might be true, that all of this is due to Tack... Do I act now, or wait for the Dark Zombies to act?" Zain pondered.
