Blue Rose City.

Western District.

Lasura Legion Camp.

Noon.

Edwin was resting while watching his legion set up their camp, he was resting peacefully when suddenly interrupted by a shout informing him that the debriefing was about to start.

All of the Knights Commanders in the army are called and they all gathered in the large basement of the Western District Knight Barracks.

The basement could hold over 600 people, a suitable place for events like this.

Captain Seria took responsibility for the Debriefing, she led and explained the basic information that they needed to know.

After that debriefing, all of the forces were on standby, Waiting for nighttime.

On top of the city wall.

Edwin was standing there watching the legion under his control lining up and forming a line of defensive formation.

While Edwin was watching his troops.

A man with green hair and a balanced build, wearing a blue coat, black pants, and boots approached him. The most sticking figure of this man was the extra eyes on his forehead, this man was from the 3-eyed race and he was a professional hunter of the Hunter Association Branch in Blue Rose City.

"Are you Knight Commander Edwin?" The Man said with a friendly smile.

"Yes I am, and you?" Edwin.

"Red Lapis, Just call me red" Red replied.

"Red, like the color red?" Edwin.

"Yes, my mom has a bad naming sense," Red.

Red and Edwin continue to talk for a while exchanging some jokes like a good friend.

"So Edwin, good luck, you need that more than me," Red said.

"Thank you," Edwin.

"I'll be in the underground, don't worry I will interfere if some problem arises," After saying that Red used his Nen Ability Called Earth Digger.

Using this Nen Ability Red jumps on the wall and dives towards the earth like a professional diver.

The moment Red was about to smash his face to the ground, a weird scene happened

Red's figure submerged into the ground like he was on water not hard ground.

Blue Rose City.

Outside Western Gate.

Nighttime.

All of the gates of the city shut close except for the western gate.

The civilians went home early and closed all their doors and windows, while the logistic and important non-combatant personnel kept moving tirelessly around the city maintaining the flow of resources on the battlefield.

The Huge Army consists of forces from different factions ready themselves and executing all the strategies that were discussed in the Debriefing.

all commanders and the 2 assigned leaders of the Army bark orders and form fortifications around the city gate.

Row upon row of knights and adventurers specialized and masters of wielding shields, form a wall of shields like a small fortress. Behind the shielders were closed-quarter combatants from various fighting styles and practices.

The long-range specialists such as mages and archers have gone on top of the walls creating a line of long-range combatants that will release a hail of arrows and devastating spells to the enemy.

On the other hand, the hunters only blended into the army and just watched.

At exactly 8:00 pm.

The army was in its position, surrounding the western gate.

In the ocean of thousands of knights, Edwin rode his armored horse and Red with his Horse Golem.

"Can we win?" Edwin.

"What do you think?" Red.

"Hey?" Edwin.

"Well, we can, easily," Red.

While they are chatting the Wave of Ambists walks out from the forest revealing themselves to the moonlight and everyone.

"What about now?" Edwin.

"100%," Red.

"You're still confident while seeing that."

Countless monsters of horrific origins line up on the opposite side of the army 5 km away from the army.

In the forefront of the Horde Of Ambist Was the Six arm monster the Ambist Lord, on the other hand in the forefront of the Army was a man wearing a full plated armor, wielding a huge shield comparable to his stature, this man was one of the 2 Assign leaders of the Army, Altanhan Grek, vice-captain of the 7th Division, and a level 6 individual.

Seeing the lineup, Red only shook his head and pointed upwards while saying, "Edwin, at this time, you will witness a very tiny fraction of Hunter's Strength."

Edwin shows a confused expression before looking upward at the beautiful night sky.

The moon gently lights up the darkness of the night, the stars twinkle like a beautiful gemstone, and the Eternal and Grand Mystic Castle occupies most of the background of the sky and floats at the very center of the Universe showing its majestic presence and infinite size to all worlds in the universe, which symbolizes the Powers Beyond Everything.

At this beautiful Scenery, twinkling lights like a shooting star suddenly emerge and fall forming a meteor shower, every meteor possessing a unique colored flame adding to the beauty of the Breathtaking scenery.

Edwin appreciated the beauty of the shooting stars, but it was abruptly ended when he discovered with his kin senses that the shooting star he currently admiring was a weapon of mass destruction recorded in the long-forgotten history of the world.

"Red, is that a missile?" Edwin.

"Yes, hey what's with that face, are you sick Edwin? You getting paler and paler." Red

The countless missiles fly through the sky like a meteor shower, raining their might on their unfortunate targets.

With a loud and continuous bang! of the explosion, the earth was shattered and blown upside down and the forest and the horde of Ambist were blown to ashes, in a radius of 500 km, all was destroyed and turned into a wasteland, the only thing left to survive was the city and some of the powerful ones in the horde of Ambist.

witnessing this scene, everyone except for the hunters was shocked, these devastating scenes will be engraved in their minds for the rest of their lives.

A few hours later.

Edwin led his legion to the frontlines and resisted the Ambist.

Many already had fallen and were sent to the infirmary but still, they were pushing through.

Edwin's legion had already suppressed 50 level 6 ambists. While his legion of 20,000 only 5000 left, no one died thanks to Red intervention.

Edwin dodges an attack while counter-attacking, sending back the laser attack towards the ambist using only his pure physical strength.

Edwin's hands were trembling from exhaustion while his throat was dried and hard to shout, even so, he still pushing his body to the limit.

Edwin took a level 6 Ambist all by himself while ordering his legion to bunch up together to fight an ambist.

The Ambist that Edwin was fighting was a level 6 Minotaur Ambist.

This Ambist is a Chemera's version of a minotaur. Minotaur Ambist is a 4-meter tall monster with the body of a human and the head of a bull, a snake tail, and a goat's feet, he is carrying a 2-meter great sword.

The Minotaur Ambist charged forward like a bull planning to kill Edwin with his horn.

Edwin hurriedly dodges, successfully avoiding his death.

The Minotaur Ambist did not care about missing his target, with a ferocious roar, recovered immediately, and swung his sword at an awkward angle.

Edwin caught the attack with his sword while redirecting it away from him.

 The Sword swing passed through beside Edwin hitting the ground.

Edwin saw an opening and decided to take it.

Edwin swung his sword, planning to decapitate his head

But midway, the Minotaur Ambist smirked.

Seeing this smirk Edwin's danger sense went haywire.

"Shit!"

Edwin canceled his strike and backed away, creating a distance from the Minotaur Ambist.

The moment he backed away, the Minotaur horns suddenly glowed with brilliant light and then exploded.

In a radius of Hundreds of meters was instantly swallowed by blue flame, and thousands of meters away was crushed and swept by shock waves.

Edwin facing the indiscriminate attack, saw his life flashing away, suddenly everything in his surroundings slowed down like he entered the world of slow motion.

Edwin gritted his teeth and forcefully moved his body while moving his mana to strengthen his body.

With a shout, he swung his sword downwards releasing a red energy slash.

The energy slash cuts the explosion in half, along with the ground. dust and gravel fly covering the Minotaur Ambist and Edwin.

The clouds of dust forcibly dissipated by the slash, revealing a scorched land and a hundred-meter-long and 20-meter-deep cut that scarred the ground.

At the starting point of the cut, Edwin was on his knees panting heavily, he was already tired, he had been fighting for hours already at his full strength and the final straw of his stamina was gone, leading to this situation.

Opposite him was the Minotaur Ambist, smirking assured of his victory.

Red who was watching in the distance was about to intervene when suddenly the head of Minotaur Ambist was cut off and flew to the air in an arc. Afterward, a Fountain of blood erupted from the severed head.

Edwin was dumbfounded seeing this, he didn't see or even notice what happened.

On the other hand, Red saw it.

He saw a single sword slash traveling in lightspeed decapitating the Minotaur Ambist's head in an instant. Red looked around and saw that all the Ambist in a 500-meter radius died in the same way shocking the Allied forces.

Red turned his head where Edwin was and then noticed the one who released those terrifying slashes.

Edwin who was on his knees, heard a footstep.

He raised his head and saw a man that had a pumpkin head with a creepy smile and eyes engraved on it, on his right hand was a huge great sword. Seeing him made Edwin feel death was passing by, Edwin realized that Pumpkinhead was the one who did it.

At that very moment, Edwin will never forget what he saw that day.

Just one person wearing a silly outfit killed hundreds of level 6 monsters in the blink of an eye without even seeing what happened.
