An Unknown Catastrophe

"Captain, where are we heading now?" One of the men in black robes asked the captain, who was sitting in front of the group that were riding on a massive eagle, flying towards the east.

"This time, we're going to a Low-level Worlds." The captain answered.

"What!? We're going to a mere Low-level World? Are you being serious right now?" The one who asked before exclaimed in surprise, as he didn't believe what he had just heard.

"Yes. However, don't take it lightly as this mission is directly given by the pope himself and could be said to be the most important mission in recent years." The man glanced at the man and spoke seriously.

"Wait-what? The pope himself has given the order? Then why doesn't the pope just send one of the strongest teams to do this mission instead of us?" 

One of the other members was shocked and asked the captain, as he didn't understand why the pope sent a small team like them.

"Are you dumb? Because this mission is really important, and considering the place we're heading to, it's indeed the best choice to send us.

Because we are just a small team and the other forces, who always monitored each other's movements, wouldn't care about us as we are not strong enough to make any difference with everything we do." 

One of the other members sneered and explained to the dumbest person in the team.

"Yes. This is the reason why this mission is really important because our lives are on the line here. Right now, our fate is either to soar into the sky by completing this mission or die in a horrible death by failing this mission." 

The captain glanced at all of his subordinates and reminded them about the importance of this mission.

"Hahaha! Don't worry captain, isn't it just a Low-level World? There's no need to be worried about it since the strongest person there was only at Conqueror rank at most." 

The dumbest person in the group laughed as he thought that there wouldn't be a problem at all since the Conqueror rank was nothing noteworthy in front of them.

"Gosh… No wonder you're the dumbest person here. Of course, we're not going there directly because it would definitely look suspicious if strong people like us are going to enter a Low-level World, resulting in our mission being discovered by the other forces." Said by the person who mocked the dumbest person in the team.

"What did you just say? Do you want to go at it again? Come let's fight, I will beat your ass again as always." The dumbest person on the team didn't accept it, as he was always being mocked by that guy, and immediately started a fight.

"Stop it, both of you! Didn't I just say to take this mission seriously?" The captain reprimanded both of them as he had enough with both of them arguing with each other every day.

When the captain became serious, both of them instantly shut their mouths and became silent as they were afraid of their captain.

"Btw, which Low-level Worlds that we're going to this time? And how long is it for us to reach there?" One of the members who had been silent this whole time asked the captain.

"Well, tbh I don't know the name of that world, but we should be able to reach there in a while." The captain replied as he only knew the location, and Low-level Worlds are not worth being noted down or remembered, that's why he didn't know it yet.

…

Looking at Dante, who was pressed down to the ground, Cain immediately waved his hand and removed his suppression power on everyone except the Fire Lion, the Fire Foxes, and the Fire MadDog.

Subsequently, he approached Dante and helped him stand up.

"Dante, are you okay?" Cain asked with a worried expression as he saw that Dante had lost his left hand.

"Don't worry my Lord, I'm fine. Though I'm really sorry that I couldn't handle them and instead became a burden to you." Dante lowered his head, feeling ashamed that he couldn't do his job properly.

"No, I'm the one who should say that, Dante. I'm really sorry that because of my carelessness, you became like this. But, don't worry because I will do my best to help you recover your arm and injury." Cain said with a smile.

"T-Thank you, my Lord. However, you don't need to go that far because I will still be able to help you even though I have lost my left hand." Dante felt extremely grateful when he heard that Cain would help him to recover his arm and injury.

"Okay, I will send you to a place where you can take a rest there faster with peace of mind. Don't resist!" Cain informed Dante before he put him into his beast space, where he would be able to recover faster.

Cain then looked at the Fire Lion and approached it slowly.

While approaching the Fire Lion, Cain exerted more pressure towards it, resulting in its body being pressed down to the ground like the foxes.

Afterwards, Cain snapped his fingers as he used one of his bloodline's abilities [Soulfire Flame].

A small white, transparent fire around 15 cm big appeared above his palm, and he immediately flicked the fire, sending it towards the lion whose body was pressed on the ground.

The lion sensed the extreme danger when Cain used his [Soulfire Flame] ability and instantly shuddered.

The feeling it felt this time was different than any of the feelings it had experienced because this time, it sensed the danger from deep inside its soul.

When the small, transparent white fire touched the lion's head, the lion immediately screamed and roared loudly in agony.

Subsequently, Cain ignored the lion's screams and roars as he approached slowly towards the foxes.
