"Tch… Why can't you just be an ordinary head ambassador? So much trouble." grumbled Angus.
Angus knows [Shadow Stealth] is a restricted skill in the Heart Kingdom. It is only passed down to the highly trained Shadow Squad that has already signed many strict soul-bound contracts. However, there is nothing impossible in this world.
There is always a way to get such a skill, especially with many kingdoms holding large black markets in Firuman.
Still, if people get caught practicing such a skill, they will be forced to sign a soul-bound contract or executed. This is for the safety of everyone, as no one wants to get paranoid over their shadow.
Fortunately, not everyone can practice this skill. Only people with an affinity towards rare elental dark could practice it. In fact, even if people have a dark elental affinity, they may not be able to need to learn to use this skill properly.
It takes not only talent but hard work to completely master such a skill. Most of the ti, people could only blend with shadows but could not hide their presence.
On the other hand, Phineas's mastery over [Shadow Stealth] is very high. The head ambassador is even on par with the experts in the shadow squad that Angus knows.
"I apologize for my blunder, Baron Victory." replied Phineas with his greedy business smile signature.
"Tch… Well, it's not my problem anyway. Just don't drag more into your ss later. Anyway, I assu you manage to sneak around and gather so information with that kind of skill, right? Did you find anything?" asked Angus.
"Not really. I find six elders out of the remaining ten dead, while Elder Yawan's condition is unknown. The last ti I saw him was fighting against four Seven Faces leaders. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any exit or the Duchess." said Phineas
"But, I found so trace of her on many dead monster's corpses during my travel." said Phineas.
"Don't worry about Duchess Amberblaze. Even if she ets a monster overlord, she could just escape easily. Is there anything else?" asked Angus.
"Besides, eting a lot of Altras eaten by these strange monsters. I think no." replied Phineas.
"*Sigh* I guess we will try to find the Duchess before searching for the exit. Hopefully, it didn't take a lot of ti. For now, you should rest with the others. It will be a tough journey ahead." said Angus.
"Yes, sir." replied Phineas before going towards their camp.
anwhile, a large tremor keeps occurring outside the capital city Redmore. *BAMM* *BAMM* Currently, the giant Ramuz is still fighting against the Seven Faces Anger using his Artifact.
Every ti his Artifact slamd into the ground, it caused a shake to the surrounding area. At the sa ti, a group of naked Altras surrounds Ramuz and Seven Faces Anger without trying to get closer.
"Ermm… Aren't we supposed to help that masked person?" asked one of the naked Altras.
"And getting hit by that giant axe?!!" retorted another Altras.
"Still, we couldn't just stay here and do nothing. Isn't it just an exiled Giant Ramuz?!! Why should we worry about him." said another Altras.
"Then, why don't you move forwards and try to get hit by that Giant Axe?!!" retorted another one.
"T-That's…" said another Altras.
"Listen here, that Giant Axe is not an ordinary artifact. It is the sa Artifact used by Ancestors to slay God in the past. No one could wield it until Ramuz sohow got it during his coming age ceremony." said another Altras.
"Ahh… I rember that bloody scene. A few elders tried to take back the Artifact before Ramuz suddenly berserk and killed everyone in the surrounding area. By the ti I arrive at the location, he is already gone, leaving only dead bodies in the area." chid another Altras.
"Yes. I also heard about that horrible incident. But isn't he getting overwheld by that masked person now? Maybe we should help fight him?" comnted another Altras.
"Did you see Ramuz hit that masked person?" asked another Altras.
"Err… No." replied another Altras.
"Ramuz could quickly kill a few elders and people during that incident because of his Artifact's ability. It is one of the weapons capable of truly hurting us despite our shapeshifting form." said another Altras.
"I am not sure of the details, but I believe anyone here feels to not get near him, right? It is our instinct to stay away from that axe." added the Altras.
In the end, all the naked Altras could only stand by, surrounding Ramuz and Seven Faces Anger waiting to finish their fight.
As for catching the goblin thief, they already give up since he disappears again when they arrive here. They could only hope the slippery thief would reappear if they stayed close to Ramuz.
Unfortunately, they didn't notice the goblin thief was above the capital city barrier, looking at them while holding his head.
After getting knocked out by Seven Faces Anger, one of his magic items is active and teleports him to a random location nearby. By coincidence, this random location is on top of the capital city barrier.
"Urgh… Why would she hit so hard in the head?!! What would happen if I beca dumb? Still, I pity Ramuz. There is no way she could win against that woman. She is not chosen as caretaker of Honor Valley for nothing." said Ragaz.
"It seems she also toyed with Ramuz and gave him false hope to win. Tch… What a sadistic woman. That's why she is still single all this y…" comnted Ragaz
*BAM* Before Ragaz could finish his sentence, Seven Faces Anger suddenly appeared behind him and sent him flying to the group of naked Altras.
"Fuck!! Not in the head again!! What if I get.. Dumber." complained Ragaz as he stopped muttering at the end of his sentence.
Ragaz found himself in the middle of angry naked Altras. Seeing the woman sending him to the angry Altras, Ragaz imdiately uses one of his magic items to escape in a hurry. At the sa ti, a group of naked Altras pursues him again.
In the anti, Ramuz looked at the Seven Faces Anger with a rough breath and was riddled with many bruises all over his body. So blood also ca from his mouth.
"Why?!" asked Ramuz while trying to catch his breath.
"Hmm??" replied Seven Faces Anger while tilting her head.
"Huft… Why did you not finish already?! I know you are holding back and toying with ." said Ramuz.
"I could have asked the sa of you. You are also not fighting seriously. Hell, all you do is swing that big axe around." replied Seven Faces Anger.
"You will die if I use this artifact power." replied Ramuz shortly.
"Who said about using that Artifact?! Did you think I didn't notice it? I could clearly see your body is slowly healing despite it being your true body. [Eternal Rebirth] is not an ordinary regeneration skill that any Altras could use." said Seven Faces Anger.
"Before unlocking this ultimate skill, the person must master every Altras shapeshift and regeneration skill. If you still said you couldn't use a shapeshift to fight, then it is utter bullshit." said Seven Faces Anger.
"Huft… It seems you see through from the start, " said Ramuz, shaking his head.
Suddenly, all the broken bones and bruises in his body were gone as if they had never existed in the first place. His breathing also becos steady.
"Tch… You even know this skill. The old man said no one alive should rember or know about this skill anymore." said Ramuz.
"Well, my job is taking care of a village filled with old souls and I just learned about this skill recently. So, the old man is not wrong about it." replied Seven Faces Anger.
"Urgh… This is more reason for to not fight you. Can't you just let pass?" grumbled Ramuz.
"Nope. If you want to pass, beat first. But I doubt you could do it unless you use your Artifact at maximum power." replied Seven Faces Anger.
"And destroy the whole Nirvas?!! Did you think I am that stupid?" asked Ramuz.
"Hahahaha… You seem like a dumb giant. So, yes." mocked Seven Faces Anger.
"Tch.. You leave no choice." said Ramuz.
Ramuz put the giant axe on the ground while stretching his right hand. Suddenly, his gigantic arm shrinks and turns into a long thin arm [Altras Secret Art - Compress]. Then, Ramuz swings his arm toward Seven Faces Anger at a ridiculous speed. *BOOOM*
The swinging speed is so fast that it breaks through the sound barrier and creates a massive airwave to the surrounding. On the other hand, a large wind force hits and envelops Seven Faces Anger instantly.
"Did I use too much power?!!" said Ramuz as he found nothing in his opponent's spot.
Suddenly, Ramuz feels sothing coming from his side. The Seven Faces Anger charged at him with a giant hand [Altras Secret Art - Expand]. Before Seven Faces Anger hit Ramuz with her giant arm, the arms turned dark brown [Earth Hardening].
Seeing this, Ramuz gets into his guard to receive such a strong attack. At the last mont, Seven Faces Anger smirks under the mask and uses another Altras secret art.
The giant dark brown arm suddenly disappears and turns into her previous normal arm [Altras Secret Art - Compress]. *BOOOOM*
