"DING DING! The hero of the Northern breach as well as our Brigadier, please welco Brigadier Raven to our camp! Please co to the main entrance to greet him."
As the bell continued ringing throughout the entire camp while a shudder ran throughout everyone who truly knew who was coming at every ring.
"Oh my god," One of the veterans of the army shouted before grabbing his hair, pulling it, and getting into a crouched position.
"Sir, please calm down!" The woman crouched down to the man and extended her shaking hand.
"Even though it had looked like all the higher-ups were stressing out, the new soldiers and the ones that had been stuck in the lower ranks were looking at the rest with confused expressions.
However, they weren't stupid. Seeing all the higher-ups in that kind of state after the ntion of a single na ant that the person must have been really strong or influential, sothing that made it even more confusing as to why they had co to the specific camp when they could have gone to any other one that would have been more beneficial for them to go to.
Eventually, the higher-ups seed to be straight thinking straight, and fortunately for them, it was right before the man they were so terrified of had walked in their way.
When they could finally see the man, they saw that he was being followed by at least a dozen other n and won from this specific camp, all looking at him with expressions of revere and fear.
He had broad shoulders and stood at a height of 6ft 1.
His dirty blonde hair moved every now and then as the wind blew onto his face, yet not for a single instance did he flinch or close his eyes, as if he was trying to assert dominance on the wind itself.
Little did everyone know that he just had a very thin layer of battle intent on his face, making sure that he wouldn't have to do sothing as basic as blink as if he was trying to detach himself from being human... From being the sa as everyone else.
When he walked past the soldiers on the side who were soluting him, his eyes would dart towards them looking at so longer than others.
Eventually, he had walked to the woman I had t when I had first entered the camp and looked her straight in the eyes while standing over her with an extrely nacing aura.
However, in what seed like the sa instance the man, that happened to be my father, crouched down and looked the woman in the eyes with a warm smile that even made her heart flutter.
'What am I thinking! He is married man!' She thought to herself with a slight blush.
"What is your na?" He asked the flustered girl.
"Sir! You do not need a na of such a lowly soldier like ! You can just call soldier like the rest of us!" She unknowingly shouted in her fluster, yet that simple gesture caused almost everyone around her to stiffen in fear of how my father would react when seeing that his order had been disobeyed.
To their surprise, however, his expression did not change for the worse, in fact, his smile had beco even warr while his arm had stretched and his hand had grasped onto her shoulder lightly.
"Do not worry, soldier. If you with to be called by a na that would generalize everything about you, you can do so... However, a piece of advice from an old man like , do not submit to being like the rest. Make a na for yourself! Make sure people rember your na and rather than rembering you as just another dog of the military, remind them that you are much more! If you don't, then everyone will walk over you as if you do not exist." My father advised with a goofy grin on his face.
When he was about to stand up once again, he rember why he had talked to the girl in the first place and crouched down once again before lightly touching her chin, simultaneously causing her to blush nervously as multiple naughty thoughts went throughout her mind.
"Purge" He muttered under his breath while his eyes shone with the colors of an aurora.
In the next mont, the girl felt sothing deep inside her shatter as if a lock had just broken.
In the sa instance, she felt as if a flood of mories began to rush forwards as she rembered a certain mory of where she had talked to a masked woman with blonde hair that had been put into a ponytail.
She rembered the girl as soone extrely strong while her mind seed to have imprinted so kind of golden aura around her that she herself did not believe was once there.
"What happened?!" She asked, touching her right temple with a perplexed expression.
"Well, I got rid of so Pride energy that seed to have accumulated in your brain. At first I thought that you were a sinner but after looking at you for a bit, I realized that soone must have implanted it into your mind to distrupt a mory if not supress it. Do you rember who could have done such a thing?" My father asked.
When she heard what my father had said, the mory of her asking for my na flashed before her eyes before a scene of my eyes turning into 3-dinsional stars of David for a split second caused her entire being to shudder.
However, knowing that it was her duty to tell the brigadier in front of her everything and anything she had found out about the person that had used so kind of "Pride" energy to manipulate her, she opened her mouth to speak the following words.
"They had... No... She had..."

Back in the temple, Ronny, Lea, and Jacob had all fought against the flying creatures, beat the flying creatures' mini-boss, and eventually completed 30 other waves which contained 3 other species and 3 mini-bosses within 45 minutes.
When they were about to go into the next wave, they heard the sound of a ding ring out in their mind before the sa voice they had all grown familiar with spoke in their mind once again, this ti not making them shudder or shiver at all no matter how disturbing the voice in their heads felt.
[A new contestant has entered!]
They had all beco partially distracted, allowing them to get hit when off guard which cost them their balance and therefore made them lose a few seconds, yet they quickly regained their previous composure and killed the humanoid furry cat creature in front of them all.
'The others were kind of cute so I am happy their boss is kind of ugly' Lea thought as she flipped in the air, landed on their hand, and sorsaulted away from the 'cat-man'.
The man did not stay in the sa place, however, quickly dashing towards her and slashing at her throat, missing by a hairsbreadth, even though that was her intention the whole ti.
By making him think that he was about to hit her but was just milliters away, she could easily make him lower his guard while making him even more ferocious than he was at the start.
When she saw that she had finally gotten what she wanted, she flickered from his way and appeared right behind him and slashed towards their necks with her dagger, cutting the head completely off.
When the head was mid-air, she moved quickly and sliced his head into almost a hundred pieces.
[You have completed the 49th wave]
[#1-Jacob: 57 seconds]
[#2-Ronny: 1 minute and 28 seconds]
[#3-Lea: 1 minute and 41 seconds]
'To think Jacob is 1st aga-' Her thought paused and she took another glance at the number on the screen.
'49? Wasn't that a mini-boss?' She asked herself, completely confused until she rember sothing causing her to facepalm at her own stupidity.
'If there are mini-bosses, there must be bosses' she thought to herself.
After drowning in her own sha for a bit, she finally began to get ready for the upcoming fight.
However, when she had finally opened her eyes with a determined gaze, she found herself standing behind both Ronny and Jacob looking in a certain direction with their weapons out.
"What's happening?" She asked, yet she knew exactly what was happening, probably more than the both of them combined.
"You are the one with mana eyes! You tell us!" Jacob retorted and Ronny laughed alongside him.
"Oh my..." Was the only thing she could mutter as the ground had begun to violently shake, creating both imbalance and chaos in the area they were in.
Jacob quickly flickered towards Lea and lifted her up as he flew into the air.
Ronny on the other hand had created a set of fiery wings which he flapped once and launched himself above the other two and spread them to make sure that his descent would be as slow as possible.
"What is that thing." Jacob asked, still not sure what he was supposed to look at.
When he finally looked through the rubble and dust, he could see a figure slowly stepping out of the dust cloud, its tail wagging gently and her movents as graceful as a ballerinas dance.
The thing in front of them was the embodint of grace and harmony, yet behind it, one could feel the amount of death and destruction behind its powerful aura.
"A cat girl?" Ronny muttered, confused about how sothing that seed so peaceful and harmonic could be so powerful and dangerous.
