Chapter 210: Co-existing Peacefully

Looking at Rin, Erix, and Lilith, the Elv girl and the rest of the group felt a clear, particular wave hitting them.

It was a wave of intimidation.

They felt intimidated by their eyes, their postures, their aura infused with their unwavering will, and most importantly, the overwhelming sse of power they instilled a them.

"If you are not coming, we will," Rin made a motion to draw out her katana as a bright dark silver gleam shot out horizontally towards them, targetting the tire group.

Blade She 3.0!

It appeared at a speed impossible for them to dodge; ev the three Royal-order powerhouses couldn't react amidst the tsion and this absurdly sudd attack.

However, the long arc slash paused half a meter away from the Elf girl and the rest of the group.

This action shocked the tire group because Rin was Noble-order, and her attack's range included ev the three Royal-order powerhouses!

If her attack affected them, they would be allowed to attack and kill her!

The Noble-order powerhouses thought she was foolish, but...

The Elf girl and the other two Royal-order powerhouses gulped.

"This is your last chance," Rin said as her eyes flickered dark red.

In the next momt, the battle began.

Half of the Noble-order powerhouses rushed towards Rin and the other half towards Erix.

"You are not allowed to surrder," Lilith spoke as she looked at the Royal-order trio with a smile.

"...Why?" the Elf girl asked somberly, her fists clched.

The man beside her grunted, his face turning ash. "We will give our loot. L-Let us go."

Lilith just chuckled while her glance wt to the middle-aged mage woman.

The middle-aged bust mage woman had her teeth clched, her heart racing, and her face red. She looked at the Noble-order powerhouses fighting Erix and Rin, but of them could ev land a single hit on them.

Her staff was glowing, and she was constantly using skills to buff the Noble-order powerhouses. 'H-How could they have Super Exotic Elemts?!'

"You can continue to buff your teammates,"

Lilith's smile turned mischievous as she said, "Let's see...If you three introduce yourselves with your full name before my two cute childr defeat all of your savages, th I will let all of you go peacefully without killing anyone."

"Aleona Zia!" the elf woman shouted.

"Barkh Wolt," the man immediately shouted afterward.

"M-m-m-m-m-m..."

'WTF!' Zia's and Wolt's jaw slammed on the floor as they looked at the mage.

"Maleua Neresha Nol M-m-m-m-mystelina Norahs M-m-m-m-Moragana!'

Wh the woman finally finished shouting the last word and oped her eyes, she only felt searing gazes on her.

...

The following evts flowed without trouble.

Zia and her party must stay on the big branch and live in their houses. But, in the more than half-empty space of the branch, Erix and others built their abodes at the d.

And th....one day passed.

Inside Trailbane guild's ctral house, the party members sat on the chairs before Zia, Wolt, and Morgana, who also sat on chairs facing them.

It was five hours into the new day in this perpetual dark region.

Erix and Rin were already meditating outside right after coming out of their today's Limitless Plane session because they were close to connecting the dots for the first technique of the Battlecraft Art Rune, Four Release of Destruction.

But most interestingly, Rin and Erix were mediating collectively. They connected their Spiritual Sses into a single consciousness frame.

Inside this frame, Rin's and Erix's consciousness interacted with each other, sharing their knowledge and results of comprehsion regarding the First Release of Destruction: Celestial Spiral Wave.

It was extraordinarily complex due to the thousands of paths they had to connect and traverse their Mana to execute it, but they first had to comprehd and find those paths!

But they were almost about to finish constructing the First Release of Destruction with their joint effort in comprehding it.

After half an hour, both of them oped their eyes at the same time.

Surprisingly, both of them saw two of their sparring partners sitting in meditation t meters away on the branch. They particularly recognized both of them since they lasted the longest during all the fights.

The ctral area of the branch was reserved for meditation since doing that on this tree had beficial effects, much like Sere Spots.

Lyra was not in deep meditation as she was just reviewing her moves and tweaking her skill formations. She wore a furred skirt with long leggings and a tight -brown top.

Beside her was Velmord, a human man looking in his forties. He wore a light-material black robe, but his combat style relied on his dagger and sneaky skills due to having a shadow elemt and speed concept.

"Come on, let's have our last sparring battle," Erix laughed and stood up.

The others also stood up, with Lyra feeling confused, "Why last? Are you going to the Umbral region of Spada Valley after this?"

"Not yet," Rin shook her head while her hand materialized her pitch-black Blade Eater, which immediately turned into a long, dark red katana.

"Next, we'll spar with your siors," Erix wryly smiled. "It's not much fun with you all anymore."

"Let's change place, shall we? We ar't supposed to destroy this tree," Erix snapped his finger as three Nihilir Wisps manifested, going to Rin, Lyra, and Velmord each.

The momt the wisp touched them, all four of them vanished and appeared five kilometers away on a wide hill.

*BOOM*

Velmord vanished from his spot after throwing a bunch of black papers a everyone, hiding in the shadows before each of them released a blade spike toward Rin and Erix.

Lyra's body also crackled with lightning and light while red particles oozed out of her body.

*Zoom!*

In a blink, her hand equipped with a big claw equipmt swiped towards Erix's head.

However, Lyra only saw Erix's lips curling towards forming a smile that she couldn't fully see before a metal slab with a dark blue freezing surface collided against her attack.

Moving behind her with a blink, Erix's arm wrapped a her stomach before he spun and slammed her down on the hill, creating a crater. But Lyra immediately sprung and hurled her attacks.

Both of them tried their best as usual, while Erix and Rin lgthed their battle at the cost of injuries but gain of improvemt.

...

Inside the Fall Land city's northwest gathering area, Rat-King looked at thirty-one people gathered together from a tower two kilometers away.

"How are they, lord Rat?" a man standing servile beside the Rat King asked.

"I don't care how they are. I am just looking at their number and see if they are at least moderately strong," Rat-King snappily said before he turned to his subordinate.

"Wh are they ready to go?"

"Tomorrow, my king."

"Fine. Feed them and dangle more rewards, but just fire up them to kill those Noble-Order people with Dark Que Lilith."

"Make her angry! She wouldn't be able to do anything to Noble-order ants anyway."

"Understood. I'll rile them up ough."
