Kace applied more pressure to Charlie's throat, forcing him to gasp for breath. Moments later, Kace flashed a sadistic grin before a thick purple smog came out of his mouth. Charlie's eyes went wide with shock and fear as he realised there was no way that he could possibly escape breathing that in! His eyes bulged as the foul-tasting smog invaded his mouth and nostrils before flowing down his throat. Wherever the smog touched on his tissues, Charlie would feel a burning acidic sensation. Lines of blood…

While all of this was going on over at the main force, it took Lorget's team some time to discover their own target. As soon as he spotted Charlie, he could understand that this hero was beyond them. Even if they all worked together. They would only have a chance at victory if Shadow joined them with his group. However, that was only a chance. Lorget was not one to potentially throw away his life when a better avenue to approach the situation appeared in his thoughts. Although they took their orders from…

The following nights saw a spike in tension for the allied force, the natives and heroes as they continued their retreat. The first night after the initial ambush saw only those who strayed away to relieve themselves go missing. The night after that saw loud howls and animalistic grunts coming from every direction of their camp. This was, of course, Shadow and his men moving around and making noise to confuse the army and deal a psychological blow. The noises made them feel like they had been utterly…

As the night wore on, the heroes and natives on guard duty became more relaxed. As far as they saw things, there was no way that they would be ambushed after the battle in the city. The only danger came from any natural fauna, and they were confident of spotting their approach from some distance. Their attitude was so relaxed that they did something that nobody on watch duty should ever do. They sat around their fires and looked directly into them! Witnessing this act, Shadow grinned at their stupidity.…

Those simple words spoken by Sophia gave Shadow a terrible feeling. It was apparent now why the heroes had retreated so quickly. They were counting on succeeding in capturing one of their important figures! Shadow's mind began to race as he began to conceive ideas about what the heroes were plotting. 'I'm sorry, Sophia. I can't tell Kace about this. If I do, he'll just rush straight into their trap.' Shadow silently swore to resolve this problem before it could come to Kace's attention. All they had to do…

"You're bluffing!" Erik roared in denial as the heroes in the crowd subconsciously began to back away from Kace's imposing figure. "Do you really want to try me?" Kace's voice sounded menacing as he practically dared them to put him to the test. A tense standoff occurred as the two figures attempted to stare each other down. Erik was frantically trying to figure out the odds of Kace telling the truth with his threat. Whereas Kace himself was silently hoping that he would not be forced to reveal his hand…

"Hmph. What makes you think I'd give you that walking ashtray even if I had him?" Kace wore a confident smirk on his face even as he cautiously studied the figure before him. Erik Stormbringer was no joke. He had gone head to head against Yul several times in his life and came out alive. He was far beyond Kace in terms of level and experience. The real question was, could Kace's sudden bumps in his attributes close the gap enough to let him come out of this alive? As the two stared at each other, Kace…

Natives screamed and ran for cover as the two sides met in battle. The natives used their knowledge of the street layout to try and flank the monster army. Lilly was relegated to the rear to focus on healing any injuries that occurred on their side. Grugda led the main force since his earth magic was ideal for defence and holding the enemies back. Sophia had taken a smaller group into the side streets on the left side of the army. She was cutting off one of their opponents flanking manoeuvres. Kace, on…

As the assailants lay on the ground and watched Kace approaching, their eyes went wide in horror. None of them wanted to fall into the hands of this monster! As they lay there thinking this, Kace's hydra-head hissed! Kace quickly leapt backwards as a black arrow struck the ground where he had been standing! At the same time, black arrows found their way into the hearts of each of the black-robed figures that he had defeated, silencing them forever! Kace quickly glanced in the direction of where the…

Kace charged at the enemy as he used Corrosive Armoury to have Sylvan take the shape of a spear. He wanted to test this new enemy by pressuring him first while allowing himself the time to get accustomed to his own changes. This was the first fight he was getting to experience since his recent upgrades. 'Once I get used to this, I'll figure out where to spend those new DNA points. I'll need to take a look at what changed for my Hero DNA chain as well.' Kace acted leisurely enough to think about other…
