Chapter 2: Begin!

Third Person's P.O.V.

3 days later

"Are all of you guys ready?" Devries asked as he smiles.

All of a sudden, the enthusiasm and the eagerness of everyone to become stronger was shown by their eyes and smiles. Each and every one of them gigfled as they gained starting position.

Devries was standing straight, not doing anything. Renee, on the other hand, was stretching his arms as he kneeled his left knee on the ground, placing his hands on the ground. Celestine was stretching her hands until they are at near their knees.

Meanwhile, Mika was exercising her hands and body, while Luka was doing heavy exercise as the cracking sound of his body was made. Then, everyone smiled.

"Begin!" Devries shouted.

Then, all of them rushed on different directions. A person must be asking, what are they doing? Well, there's all a purpose on all of these things. This is the first training that thy have done together. That being said, they are helping each other by first testing out their strengths.

This test is to maintain your probability on surviving on your own. They must face the Abbysmal Waves only with their own strength and knowledge. The purpose of this consists of 2 things. First, is to test their strength and weaknesses, as stated earlier.

The second one is to gain experience and to know each other more. This is crucial and drastic when it comes to combat. Knowing what your comrade's strength and weaknesses are extremely valuable, since you can cover up their weaknesses, and they can cover yours. This is to maintain balance on your team.

As all of them ran on different directions, countless Abbysmal Beasts began to appear on plain sight, since there are no trees or anything that are blocking their sights. It is different than what happened yesterday. The other, it only was a Small Wave. Today, a Big Wave is occuring. This only happens once a week.

Their positions was not so far on each other, but it was not close as well. Luka was hiding on a big rock north-west, holding his spear on his right hand. Mika was on the opposite side of Luka, only on plain sight.

Celestine, on the other hand, was also on plain sight only 3 meters behind from Mika. Renee, meanwhile, was on east side, hiding on the one and only tree on the Wave Battlefield. The tree was ginormous, making Renee a big advantage in terms of hiding.

Devries, on the other hand, was flying, 17 feet above the ground, his green and transparent gorgeous wings designed with somewhat a flower shape on the top and bottom corners. The wings were flapping extremely fast.

"Dragonfly mode." Devries said.

Dragonfly mode, one of Devries' Gifts. Devries, when he was born, has the body of a human with wings, eyes, and some internal parts of the body that consists than that of a Dragonfly. Such includes wings and eyes.

With the ability of a dragonfly, he can fly 1,575 mph at maximum speed. Additionally, his eyes consists of 28,000 little honeycomb shaped lenses, which gives him the ability to see almost 360 degrees. Furthermore, he can analyze and predict the movement of his prey because of his bug-instinct.

As the sound of his wings flapping 120 times per second echoed, the beasts were rapidly increasing their numbers. No-one knows how is that happening. It just do. While the Abbysmal Beasts was walking towards all of them, all of them smirked.

"First come, first serve!" Shouted Luka as he ran towards the Abbysmal Beasts.

Then, all of them went towards the Beasts, their eagerness to annihilate all of them made them more excited. Luka was the one that is the first to reach al of them. As he approached the beasts, he placed the tip of his spear towards the Abbysmal Beasts.

He thrust and swung his Spear as much as he could while the blood from the beasts was spurting around the area. Meanwhile, Celestine and Mika was killing the Beasts as well. Surprisingly, Celestine holds a chain on her left and right hand.

She uses the left hand to strain the beasts, while on the other hand, she was using her chain on her right hand to stab the beasts. Well, her Gift is Chains. Basically, she can generate, control, strengthen, make vanish, and shape Chains at will. That's literally it.

Contrastingly, Mika was punching the monsters to death with her hands with some kind of a metal gauntlet supporting her hands. She's a melee fighter and her Gift is Push and Punch. As the name states, Push and Punch is the ability to amplify Punch and Push power.

She can augment the Push power on her left hand while on the other hand, she can amplify the power of Punch. Suddenly, there appeared 4 ginormous beasts, about 21 feet high.

"Isn't it about time?" Said Luka.

'I hope they follow the plan.' Thought Devries as he smirked.

All except for Devries moved towards the Evolved Abbysmal Beasts. When the Beasts finally noticed them, they left them to a place where they can fight without any nuisance. Luka, along with an Evolved Abbysmal Praying Mantis, went South-West, where there are no other living things other than themselves.

Mika, together with an Evolved Abbysmal Grasshopper went South, with nothing but themselves alone. Celestine, along with an Evolved Abbysmal Cockroach, meanwhile, went East. While on the other hand, Renee, with an Evolved Abbysmal Centipede, went North.

Devries was the only one who was left with all the underlings. He looked at all of the Beasts, doing some kind of calculations whilst playing with his hands.

'Good.' He thought.

Suddenly, all of them took something in their pockets. All of them threw it, alarming everyone due to the scenery in their eyes. What they threw was some sort of a mini firework that alarms nearby people. For instance, situations like this.

All of them giggled, looking at their opponents with great excitement. Will they win? Will they lose? Will they survive? Or will they die? All of this is about to be written in history. Thus, their journey continues.
