Omni-Mastery

The howls and roars coming from the fight between the forest's peak predators erased the silence almost instantly.

My situation wasn't promising at all; after all I had to leave this forest as soon as possible.

Staying in this forest anymore included the threat of the big battle ending and me becoming a target of the victor.

After all, the chase by the lightning beasts wasn't very convincing, why would they chase me around for no reason?

So, I had to consider that I might be targeted by the residents of the forest for an unknown reason.

I went near the entrance as I observed the lightning beasts movement, they were just sitting there guarding the cave....

I was simply trapped.

However, another interesting thing caught my mind, it was once again that dark mist. The lightning beasts faced similar situations to the Thunder lion, something was definitely suspicious with this.

Assuming they might be controlled by some force to attack me(?), this meant that I had more reasons to leave this place.

The Thunder lion who was the stronger lifeform in this whole forest, might behave quite similarly to these beasts, as soon as the fight comes to an end.

I would be doomed if this situation insisted, I had to leave as fast as possible. But, what if speeding things up led to an even faster death?

I had to plan this carefully before taking any step forward, this situation was too thorny for rash behaviors.

Half an hour later....

After thinking it thoroughly, there was only one possible solution. Individual battles, by using the element of surprise to make an all-out strike to take out one target at a time.

This method looked quite feasible. however, to be in my peak form to unleash every strike was quite the hurdle.

After all these beasts were quite powerful to take out using normal strikes.

So after calculating it carefully, I found out I could only unleash a strike that powerful enough to take a lightning beast out 5~6 times a day.

That was quite dangerous as it would take time, and who knew when the battle ongoing outside would end.

However, as the only possible method available, I had no other choice. Still, the bright side here was that I should be able to take care of the beasts before the arc timer ran out.

Using 'Swift steps' to head out as fast as possible, I slashed using my dual swords at the closest beast to the entrance.
