Alpha Reborn!



Despite the tempting allure of the magical artifacts, including Liam's radar, Evan displayed no inclination towards looting the triplets' corpses. It was common knowledge that the empire's magic items were bound to the first person who used them, thereby limiting their use to only their rightful owner. Without the help of a skillful hacker, this effect couldn't be removed. Evan was well aware of this fact, and based on this, he made the uncomplicated decision to leave the items untouched. He knew that meddling with them would be a pointless endeavor hence why he chose to move on without them. If someone ignorant had been in his shoes, they would have made a different decision and regretted it straight after. 

"We have no choice but to search for opponents ourselves!" said Evan to Aiden.

The second floor of the monster tower was divided into four distinct terrains.

Only nine participants were teleported to the swamps. 

Regrettably, five of them were ruthlessly butchered by the triplets, who were eventually defeated by Evan and Aiden. 

Consequently, the swamp was now devoid of any other contestants.

After wandering through the swampland for an hour, their stamina waning, they realized this fact.

"Looks like it's just us left in the swamp. How about we switch up the scenery?" Evan suggested.

"Sure, sounds good. But would you do me the honor of allowing me to be your guide? My time serving in the army has sharpened my senses and given me valuable knowledge. While I might not be as skilled at sensing monsters as a sensory-type cultivator, I can ensure that we steer clear of any potential danger," Aiden offered.

"Of course, I'd be grateful for your assistance. Your expertise could come in handy and ensure that we save our stamina for the battles that truly matter," Evan nodded.

The two control-type cultivators set off, making their way through the murky swamp. 

The thick canopy of foliage and the shroud of darkness made it a daunting task to gain a clear perspective of their surroundings, but with Aiden's astute guidance, they were able to avoid any potential hazards and navigate their way through the treacherous terrain without engaging in useless battles.

As they made their way to another terrain, Aiden recounted some of his personal experiences and shared his army wisdom with His Highness Evan, narrating his army stories in a captivating tone. His vivid storytelling painted a picture of a world that fascinated Evan.

The all-encompassing darkness of the swamp gave way to the brightness of Aiden's memories as he made their journey seem like a leisurely stroll in a serene park, even though the harsh reality of their surroundings could not have been more different.

Aiden's life story clearly indicated that he had encountered both the positive and negative aspects of the world. Evan couldn't help but let out an inward sigh, acknowledging that this world was really cruel to children as, despite Aiden's youthfulness, he had already experienced the highs and lows of life.

After traversing through the murky swamp, they finally emerged and were greeted by a breathtaking view of undulating hills and verdant flora.

"This terrain of the second terrain looks completely different than the first one," remarked Evan, admiring the picturesque scenery.

The stark contrast between what lay behind and ahead of him was almost unbelievable; just one step behind him lay a dim, murky, and putrid swamp, while ahead of him stretched out a panorama of lush greenery and rolling hills.

It felt simply amazing!

Aiden, scanning the area, added, "I can spot the building we have to enter once we gather the required points from here."

The rolling hills stretched as far as the eye could see, with a carpet of lush greenery covering the gentle slopes. The air was filled with the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers and the soft rustling of leaves in the breeze. High above, a few fluffy black clouds lazily drifted across the starry night sky, completing the idyllic picture. 

It was a tranquil oasis amidst the rugged wilderness that surrounded it.

While sprinting through the lush scenery, basking in the peacefulness of their surroundings, the distant clash of swords and grunting sounds caught Evan and Aiden's attention.

"Let's go check it out."

They followed the noise until they reached the edge of a clearing, where they stumbled upon a group of participants bullying someone they knew all too well – Jack O'Ice.

Aiden, devoid of any opinion on the matter, looked to Evan for guidance and asked, "Do you wish to intervene, Your Highness?" 

Evan quickly replied without hesitation, "Yes, I do. But it's not for a noble cause like you might have thought. We need points, and there seem to be quite a lot of them within our reach."

Aiden, without batting an eye, grabbed his sniper rifle and, like a soldier, declared, "I will provide you with backup, Your Highness."

One of the Frostweavers caught sight of them. Suddenly, Evan disappeared from his view, causing the Frostweaver's eyes to widen in shock and confusion. Before he could even inform his teammates of their appearance, he felt a cold, sharp object approaching him from behind. As he turned around, he saw a glint of steel before feeling a searing pain in his neck.

Blood sprayed out of the wound like a gruesome fountain, painting the white snow in crimson. The young hound of the Frostweavers looked down to see his own body, now headless and twitching in its last moments of life. Horror and fear gripped him as he realized the gravity of the situation, and then he saw Evan standing behind his headless corpse with an expressionless face.

The sight of his own beheaded body was too much for him to bear, and his brain short-circuited with the realization that he was dying. He took his final breath as his lifeless body slumped to the ground, surrounded by the macabre scene of blood and death.
