As the leader of the mission, Shun surveyed the area, his eyes scanning the landscape for any remaining signs of malice organisms. With a swift slash of his sword, he dispatched a tree-like structure that resembled one of the vile creatures, his movements fluid and precise.

Rodrick, who had been working diligently on his side of the cleanup effort, spoke up over the walkie-talkie. “Leader Shun, how’s it going on your end? Are you finished yet?”

.....

“Not quite,” Shun replied calmly, “but I’m almost done here. How about Cortel and the others?”

“We’ve finished our section and we’re ready to move on to the next location,” came the simultaneous response from the other team members.

Suddenly, Cortel remembered something important. “Wait a minute, who’s guarding our turf back home? Did we forget to assign someone?”

“Ahh! Right, Hey, any idea, who could it be as Erick-sama never forgets to put someone incharge of the safety of new turf!” Monan also chimed in and asked, feeling that they completely forgot about that.

Merial chimed in, “I think it’s little Shen and his masters, the Assassin Twins.”

“But can a child like him handle such a demanding task?” Rodrick asked, his voice laced with concern.

Shun reassured them all. “Don’t worry. Little Shen is stronger than he appears, and his masters are experts in tactics. They’ll take good care of our turf.”

Their discussion was interrupted by Erick’s voice over the walkie-talkie. “What’s going on over there? If you’re finished, move on to the next area. We don’t have time to waste.”

With Erick’s stern reminder, they quickly regrouped and headed off to the next location. It had been months since they had dismantled the NHC organization, and Erick was determined to rid the area of malice organisms once and for all.

Shun led the charge, followed by Cortel, Merial, Monan, Rodrick, and Soren, each with a hundred men under their command. They worked tirelessly, clearing out ten more cities and their surroundings in just a month’s time.

Their efforts had not gone unnoticed, and the citizens of these areas were grateful for their safety. With each victory, the Rhamnusia Group’s presence grew stronger, and their reputation as protectors of the people became more firmly entrenched.

Today, they had finally decided to rid the area of the malicious organisms that had been wreaking havoc not far from the coastal region. Erick Dahl was ahead of everyone, scanning the surroundings and the seashore with his Origin sense. As he drew closer, he sensed the turbulent air and the overwhelming stench of blood, along with the presence of a large number of violent creatures.

“Huff…huff, Step…step…step…!!” A ragged man stumbled along his way, his face filled with worry, fear, and regret. Erick saw him and flashed beside him, catching his wrist and steadying him on the ground before he fell.

“Who…hufff….are….you!” the man asked, feeling a hand on his back and wrist, surprised to find his own body standing steady after stumbling just moments before.

“Shouldn’t you introduce yourself first?” Erick quipped, smiling warmly at him. The man breathed deeply, his heart slowing down as he relaxed in Erick’s presence. He introduced himself as Ronin Cromwell, and suddenly remembered why he was running in that direction.

“Please…Sir, can you help me save my friends who are fighting for their lives at the moment!” Ronin begged Erick, his face contorted with helplessness and regret.

Erick had already decided to help them as soon as he sensed the presence of the violent creatures in his Origin sense range. “You can relax here and wait for my people to arrive while I go ahead and see if your friends can still be saved!” Erick said, patting his shoulder reassuringly, letting him know that he had survived well so far, and now he could leave it to him.

“Thank you….thank…you, Mister!” Ronin repeated his thanks, but as he looked towards where Erick stood earlier, he found him nowhere to be seen, making him wonder if he was dreaming. Fortunately, Leader Shun and the others arrived, and they reassured him that his friends would be safe. Only then did he calm down and relax.

Erick arrived just in time to see Ronin Cromwell’s friends about to become snacks for a group of vicious bird-like creatures. Without hesitation, he flared his aura and smacked the birds who were trying to eat the unconscious and injured human bodies scattered on the seashore.

“Bamm….Booomn!” A deafening boom echoed, and a cloud of dust rose as Erick swiftly passed by the fallen bodies, scooping them up and moving them to safety in one fluid motion.

“Good timing,” Erick thought to himself as he surveyed the scene. He knew he had to act fast before the creatures attacked again. “Everyone, use your long weapons and infuse them with your energy. We need to roast these violent feathered creatures alive!”

Just as Erick was about to make his move, Leader Shun and around 50 strong men arrived on the scene. Erick shouted towards them to join in, instructing them to fuse their weapons with their energy and roast the creatures alive.

“Bang….bang….bang….bang!!!” The sound of gunfire erupted as everyone started firing their weapons, infusing them with their energy. The moment the bullets made contact with the violent creatures, their feathers started to burn, and the impact sent them crashing across the seafloor.

“Screeeech…screech…screech….scre…!!”

The creatures let out a deafening scream as they were burned alive, their bodies writhing in agony as they fell to the ground. In just a matter of minutes, the violent creatures that had terrorized the area were defeated, thanks to the combined efforts of Leader Shun, and their team.

As the dust settled, Ronin Cromwell was left in awe of the display of power he had just witnessed. He and his team had been fighting these ferocious creatures for what felt like an eternity, barely escaping with their lives, and here they were, now lying dead on the seashore, unable to retaliate against this group of people who had arrived out of nowhere.

Erick could have easily taken care of the creatures himself, but he let the group work together to build their teamwork and strengthen their bond. Ronin Cromwell was left frozen, unable to comprehend what he was seeing before him. He watched as the team moved together in perfect harmony, firing their weapons and infusing them with their energy. The creatures stood no chance against them, their feathers burning as they were hit with the barrage of bullets.

As Ronin Cromwell tried to make sense of what he was seeing, he couldn’t help but wonder how these people had become so powerful. He and his team had struggled so much, and yet here they were, effortlessly taking down creatures that had almost wiped them out. He longed for an explanation, something that could help his puny mind comprehend the display of power he had just witnessed.
