Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Chapter 307: Waiting and Defending

"Just a little more." Gamon mumbled. Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.

Currently, while the seven Apexial Beasts were having but by themselves, the three, Gamon, Sheran, and Old Maytan were concentrating to rank up the dragon.

The three from the Crome Faction had never been so scared their entire lives as Rank Es Elementalists.

Even though they could only have their visual senses passed through the barrier, they could see the terrifying might of each Apexial Beasts.

At the very least, the three of them could only keep one General company for some time. But eventually, they will be killed.

This is natural. Elemental beasts are stronger, to begin with. The only problem was that humans have intellect and suppressed the beasts with bestial instincts for a long time.

But these Rank Es Apexial Beasts have reached a certain amount of intelligence. Some may even argue that they are wiser and smarter than humans for having longer lives.

Coupled with their natural elesps, elesks, raw power, and bestial instincts, normal rank Es Elementalists are not their match.

This is why there are legends such as the Penta Elementalists and the Might of Torge. They are only another league of Rank Es Elementalists.

Rossiya was outside, anxious about the other Apexial Beasts that went out to search for the Lord Sorcerer.

But these people are not the only ones who came together. The Ten-Man Mighty Troop, the Penta-Elementalist's students, and Mer were still on their way. They were a lot slower than their masters, after all.

No, they are not just the only ones there, another legend that is said to compete with Arcansas and the Lord Sorcerer back in the days. However, this beast was so mysterious and is rarely seen - the Prismatic Three-Tailed Wolf, Cojier.

He was waiting for the sun to set. But morning just came and a few hours were still needed before noon. In other words, the night, where he can enter his true form, was still far.

That is why he is patiently waiting there. Once Sheran ranked up and Gamon is ready to go, he will join. Cojier wasn't scared at these Apexial Beasts. He was even growling at them in his human form which baffled the other three from Crome Family.

Quiare and the two Supreme Elders do not have any choice as well but to wait. They weren't asked to help with anything and it's not like they can go out there. They patiently waited as well.

'I hope the barrier stands until they are ready!' they thought.

After that thought, the Apexial Beasts stopped their show of powers. They all looked in one direction where they saw Jmsdwefshiuwen coming straight at them.

There was one thing that baffled them though. Jmsdwefshiuwen was badly injured.

The Apexial Beasts frowned.

When Jmsdwefshiuwen arrived, he panted, not out of exhaustion but out of fear.

"Rank Eses?" Hanmer already knew. There's no one, except for the Conqueress to give this much fear to one of them.

They knew Jmsdwefshiuwen's toughness.

As soon as he arrived, his missing arm soon came back. He looked at Unfer, the quiet Fifth General, who specialized at not only healing himself but also, the others. He didn't say anything thanks and just nodded.

"Yes, what the Rank Ey said is right. Arcansas indeed ascended to Rank Eses."

Angry murmurs from the Generals arose. They thought their Great Ruler would be the first one to ascend but it seemed like someone got the first place. However, they were not that angry. They believed that their Great Ruler would surpass this "first"  Rank Eses once she ascended soon.

They expected her to ascend in the next five to a hundred years which is a lot considering that they are warring against the whole world.

Time is very important in this period.

"So what do we do? Should we attack her right now or wait?"  Jmsdwefshiuwen asked as he calmed down, returning to his original self.

Hanmer, as the First General, thought for a while. 

"No, we'll deal with them first." he looked at the ones behind the barrier. He then continued.

"If the gap between Rank Ey and Rank Es is the same for Rank Es and Rank Eses then even if there are nine of us, it will be a hard battle. Any of these newcomers came into the fight, we will be at a disadvantage." Hanmer said which no one rebuked.

"But what are they doing in there? Are they just waiting for time?" Dugon Mo pointed at Sheran and the others.

Since only their visual senses can pierce through the barrier, they have no idea if they are just resting or doing something else, much less know that Gamon and Old Maytan were actually helping Sheran rank up.

"The barrier is not invincible. However, I have to admit, it is tough." Hearoid commented, "But if we continue, we can break it and kill them."

"Then let's get a bit serious." Kerion, the Matter Elemental Beast, half-man half-pig, and also, the Seventh General said.

"Agreed." the others replied.

A moment later, Old Maytan's eyes widened. He vomited blood at the same time.

"Ka!" he coughed, surprising Cojier and Quiare's group.

"They're getting serious!" he looked up and saw that one by one, the Apexial Beasts were attacking with their natural elesps rather than raw strength.

Right now, surrounding their barrier, the land had long been gone. They float on top of a large crater as the cries of demons and beasts could be heard.

Hanmer is a beast specialized in raw power. His elesks are greater than his elesps, a very rare type of beasts to begin with. When he punched the barrier with half of his force, the greater crater was formed and even the people inside the barrier felt the tremor.

That was when Old Maytan coughed out blood.

Having no choice, he looked at Quiare's group.

"I have no choice but to trust you. If you don't want to die, pass me all the energy you have. I don't care if it's not compatible with my body since I will redirect it immediately to the barrier."
