A call

A barrage of fire rained through the mutated soldier area. The soldier was covered with smoke afterward, and when it became distinct, his body was full of holes, and he landed with a thud in the soil, Lifeless.

"Don't you all know how dangerous it is when you enter the dimensional zone?!" The General roared as his nose puffed in frustration.

"Look what happens to him!" He pointed at the lifeless mutated soldier. "A single look at the dimensional portal made him mutate into a dimensional monster!"

"You are not like that Peerless Master, for F*ck sake!

Even I had to carefully consider whether I should enter the dimensional zone or not!"

The soldiers felt terrified of what transpired to the pitiful soldiers that mutated. They heard the constant scolding of their General, and they could not help but agree with him. They saw the Peerless Master's head faced at the East side of the horizon and thought they could glimpse the moon without consequence.

Now, they had developed a kind of trauma not to look above as they watched the mutated worm and imagined if they became like the poor soldier that mutated. They could not stomach the sight of them mutating into the milky worm, and their body shivered in fear.

"Now, stop acting like a wimp!" Frank shouted at them. "Readied yourselves and wait for the backup to arrive!"

Frank felt that the military communication tool resting in his pocket vibrated. He knew this must come from the Government and thus used this chance to boost the morale of his soldiers.

Clink!

The call was accepted, as he brought the military communication tool to his ear and mouth.

The military communication tool buzzed with noise, and Frank could hear what the other side was saying.

"This is the headquarters speaking!" It continued to repeat, and the General had to say in response, which it halted.

"The Government of the C-grade City does not have a Peerless stage awakener, while you – the General – were the strongest at the city but were only unbound stage. Hence, we asked for the assistance of the Leo family so that they would understand the circumstances that the city they supervised faced.

They decided to send their Leon troops! It was reported the people they sent consisted of four Peerless Masters of the offensive type and a single Unbound stage last phase of the support type. General, are these forces enough to take down the Dimensional Portal?"

The General turned dumbfounded by the bombard of information he received. After all, it was so sudden for them to introduce the forces that would come to aid in taking down the Dimensional portal. Four offensive types of Peerless Master? And a single Unbounded Stage rare support type? These forces are so terrifying to even asked if they are enough to take down the dimensional portal! The General exclaimed on his thought.

Although, it was authentic that the Leo Family supervised the City. They did not invest a lot of people to manage it since it was only a C-grade City. They could not care for others aside from the resources they could excavate, which prospered their Ancient Family.

Hence, the Government did not hesitate to take a step and govern the City and its people. After all, the Government was created by the single man who brought the way for Mankind to stand again at the peak of the food chain, and that single man wanted nothing but the prosperity of Mankind.

Although The Leo Family was displeased with others, sticking their noses in their business, they had to take a step back and be humble if they does not want to gain that person's wrath.

"It's more than enough, Sir!" The General shouted with a salute.

His tone was filled with respect and ecstatic as he realized the forces would come to aid them and respect these people at the headquarters to ask the Leo Family about such a terrifying and overbearing force.

Who knows what could be the reason for them to invest such an enormous effort to take down the Dimensional Portal, which could potentially be stronger than they anticipated. If the forces failed? Then they lost a lot of resources, and it would take a decade to reclaim the immense loss of their manpower.

"It is more than enough, Sir!" The General repeated, indicating that he had more to say. "It is because the Peerless Master had arrived earlier and taken down all the Dimensional Monsters. However…"

His face became stern as he continued. "He could not deal with the boss, and he was powerless enough to receive a single strike from the boss.

"Thankfully, the boss did not kill him, and they appeared to be talking with each other. It seemed that the hidden powerhouse had so much Social quotient to buy so much time that 20 minutes have passed already."

"…"

The military communication tool was silent for dozens of seconds. A rustle was then heard, and a new voice reverberated from the military communication tool.

"What type of Soul Power he demonstrated?" The voice put pressure on the General as it asked.

He knew that the person on the other side must have been a prominent figure to make him feel this way. Not wanting to waste any more time, the General responds quickly with an obedient tone.

"It appeared that the Path he awakened was speed, Sir. He could traverse and dash that was impossible to follow with the naked eye. I assumed that he did not use his Soul Power, except when he entered the dimensional zone," said the general, straight to the point.

"So he came out of his lair, huh?" The other side murmured.

Frank did not catch what he said, for it was so indistinct. Hence, he politely asked what he said, and the other side rustled again, and the previous voice echoed on the communication tool once more.

"Wait for the reinforcement to arrive! The General of the A-Grade city advised you to stay on put!"

A clank was then heard, and a buzzing quite loud noise echoed from the military communication tool. The General pressed at the side of the object, and the buzzing noise stopped before he gazed inside at the dimensional zone once more.

"I can't believe I talk to such a powerful person." He sighed, dejectedly. "Such a disparity between the General of the C-grade City to the A-grade City."
