There was a brawl between the golems and the darkness soldiers.

Adam dashed towards the Black monarch, intending to assassinate it.

Adam didn't assault the black monarch since he was so close to it; instead, he protected himself from its blows.

"Oh, you're not going to attack according to the rules, are you?" The voice made a sarcastic remark. "All right, let's wrap this up in one blow!"

As the dark monarch stated, he raised his sword into the air, but before attacking Adam, he cast his newly obtained spell.

"Soul break"

[-90 MP]

[Target's HP is maximum]

[Attack power has been significantly increased]

As Adam said, he watched the black monarch twitching in pain just for a second and drop his sword on the ground.

Taking this chance, Adam cast another two spells which dealt great reduction of HP to the black monarch.

"Ice spears"

"Death ray"

[Black monarch's HP has dropped below 75%]

[HP: 31,247/44,500]

[He will now, evolve in his second phase: Monarch's rage]

"Haha...You... You have impressed me, it's been a long time...meeting someone like you"

[You have been debuffed]

[Your defense and attack has been reduced by 50%]

"Damn it!" Adam cursed under his breath as he hastily raised his spear to block the attack. "I won't be able to focus like this!"

But, something unexpected happens he was blown backward...and coughing blood.

[HP: 7,089/11,300]

'Tch...I don't even have enough HP'

Adam's current HP potion will only heal 50 points.

So, you can imagine how many bottles of potions he needed to restore his HP.

'I should have bought...larger HP potions'

[Opponent have used Equipment: Spear]

[You have acquired opponent's skill: Dark cloud]

'Nice..' Adam smirked but after seeing the MP...

[MP:580]

'Puff...What the heck!? In my current state, I can't even use this skill'

"That's the pain, but since you're powerful... I'm sure you'd... tolerate something like this..." he continued "Now resist my arrows...hahaha"

As he said, more arrows were shot in Adam's direction, this time the fluid shield didn't have the strength to block the arrows like before, and completely shattered upon impact from the arrows.

Adam was unable to avoid the arrow in time, and the shot landed on his right shoulder.

"AARGH!" Adam cried out in pain.

'Even if it's only a game, the pain is extremely realistic.'

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be so weak! You won't be able to finish the trial unless you get past me... Hahaha!"

"Shut up," he said. Adam clenched his teeth and shattered the arrow's shaft, which was attached to his right shoulder.

BACK IN AXSIS, ACONIA...

There was blood, weaponry, and devastation all throughout the city. Red, blue, and black were the new hues of what had once been a vibrant city, but, now had been transformed into the staging area for a full-fledged invasion of monsters and demons.

The air, which had previously been filled with the noises of the city, was now filled with deafening cries of anguish; the sound of explosions and combat drowned out all other sounds; hell had come upon this place.

Two armies were battling, one to defend the people they wished to protect, and the other, made up of monsters, was out to murder them all, but it wasn't apparent who was winning after hours of combat.

The dead and wounded of the human side were abundant and were laying in heaps around the city and the faces of the fighters are grim with horror and despair, but they refuse to give up.

With the thought of victory in their minds, the monsters fought with a sense of destruction, believing it would all be over soon. Some of them had succumbed to exhaustion and were sleeping amidst the debris, rubble, and they're wounded, while others longed for the end of this battle.

The toll on both nature and humanity was heavy. Its clear rubble, blood, and broken had taken the place of buildings, gardens, and all.

All seemed hopeless until the 15 elites decided to join their hands together to defend their city's from an A rank monster invasion.

"How long can we last against these monsters?" Elena cark, leader of the thief guild asked the rest of the elites.

The leaders of the 15 elite guilds were considering the A-ranked monster invasion that had occurred just a few days ago.

It was a citywide emergency, thus even the Lord of AXSIS was present, albeit he wasn't given much weight because the 15 elites had their hands full with the current situation.

Every player or NPC in the States had been summoned to take part in the all-out war that was currently taking place; not that all of them were useful, given their low levels and the fact that this was not a low-ranking monster invasion, like a well-ranking one, but they could still help in some way.

"We should call to the 'Adanium' and the 'Eternal City' for assistance. We'd be able to better utilize AXSIS's capabilities if we worked together..." Rose Parker, the Assassin guild's head, proposed that they contact the nearby cities for assistance in a time of need.

"Our armies are powerful enough to repel the beasts! We don't need to rely on them for assistance; after all, those jerks aren't going to aid us for free in any case." Andrex Lash, the warrior guild's leader, spoke forward.

In the camp, there was a moment of silence. Everyone looked at each other, there was only one person, who was calm as still water.
