"I wonder if the boss and the others already killed that noble expert." A person on the tree branch muttered to the person beside him.

"Ofcourse, did you hear that explosion just now? They definitely killed him already," replied the person beside him.

"Fufufu, joining a party in a competition like this is a good choice," the former muttered.

"Of course, do you think we can kill those experts without joining hands?" The latter questioned.

"That's impossible," exclaimed the former.

"!! —Ssshh!" Signalled the latter while putting his index finger on his mouth.

"Wha—? Why?"

"Look, someone came out of the cave.."

The other guy whispered and pointed.

"Oh I see."

"Five people?"

"Yeah, and this aura."

"One of them is an expert!"

"You watch them, I go and call the boss! Hehe this is great, we can complete the required points for sure!"

"Okay!"

Whoosssssssshh!!! His figure disappeared from the trees.

A moment later, he came back with a burly person together with 10 other people. Most of them were from the Boar Tribe and Lizardmen.

Half human half boar people were known by their burly figure. Although they don't have pig-like noses, they do have pig ears. Most of their male even have big fangs.

On the other hand, Lizardmen looked more reptilian, if not because they stood on their two feet, they definitely indistinctable with the real one.

They immediately went into the position while peeking under the cover of bushes and tree leaves.

Most Lizardmen were good in hiding because of their ability to camouflage. They were good assassin as well and a warrior.

Boarmen on the other hand were well-known battle freaks. They were the berserkers in the battlefield that feared by many. There was an old knowledge in the empire, that Boarmen and Wolfmen were a rival tribe. They mostly quarreled and fought about who was the real monster in the battlefield.

The leader of the group was a Boarman. With a body that stood at most 7 feet. With arms that are as big as the trunk of a coconut tree.

He was wearing a faded brown color pants. Aside from the two big chain that were crossed on his chest, he was on his bare skin. The most striking feature of him was his muscles that looks like a well-sculpted stone.

Resting on his shoulder was a large Axe.

"Boss Breegoria, there they are," pointed the person awhile ago.

"Gwarharhar, a beardy, two Encan people, and... a red-haired wolf girl eh? A noble from Canine Sect. Perhaps from the Lupine Family. Harhar, this is great. Based on her magical aura, she must be a 1-star False Path expert. Those three on the other hand, were below. They are weaklings….. Wait, who is that person with them?"

"Eh? Maybe just an extra boss," said the person who reported. This person was from the Lizardmen Tribe.

"Purffft! Good Job, Berlin(name of the lizardmen who reported)!" Breegoria said while patting the shoulder of Berlin who only as tall as his waist.

"Hmm… Based on his magical energy that I perceive from him, he looks like he is the weakest among them. However, that armor he was wearing, it gives a feeling that it is not an ordinary armor. He probably comes from a noble family," added Breegoria. 

While staring at the mysterious guy who was wearing a black armor with a hood, Breegoria thought that he looked familiar to him, but he could not remember where he saw him.

Anyway, that guy seemed exhausted and looked weak. He couldn't even feel a strong magical aura from him.

He squinted his eyes and ordered all his men to scatter and surround them. They would probably have noticed their presence later since Encan and Wolfmen were known for their keen senses.

However, Breegoria wasn't bothered by it. When they perceived their presence, it would be already too late for those people. His men perhaps already surrounded this area when that happened.

Looking at those people, Breegoria believed that both of them had quite a number of points on their heads, he could also loot their foods and equipment before killing them. Just like what he did to that last victim. That guy even though he was a noble, he cried like a baby and even beg him to not kill him. Fufu, too bad, Breegoria wasn't a kind person.

Breegoria licked his lips while staring at the red-hair girl with wolf ears. "It will be fun… Garharhar!" He laughed.

Their yellowish eyes peeking from the bushes and tree leaves. They were like predators who were ready to hunt their prey. They could not charge blindly as it would startle their prey and some of them might be able to escape. They needed to lock their escaped route.

Their movements were so silent, that even when they stepped on a dry branch of trees, there was no noise produced.

Most of them were experts in reconaisance and assassination. This skill of stepping a tree branch and avoid making a noise was easy-peasy for them.

They just needed to use a skill on their feet known as [Noise Canceler]. It was a medium tier spell that was taught in the academy of magic.

Weeeeeeweeeew! When everyone finally took on their position, Breegoria heard a signal from one of his men.

He lifted his arm to signal for a charge.

However,

"Boss, what are those?" Berlin beside him suddenly asked while pointing to their targets.

Breegoria's face wrinkled and narrowed his eyes as he peered ahead of him.

Bzzzzzzz….. bzzzzzzz… bzzzzzz!

He saw a pack of insects producing familliar noises in the air. "Hmm… bees? Gwarharhar, what a joke," he said with a sneer. He was wondering why these people played with such an insect. Breegoria wasn't a bit worried about it. It just some bees, nothing unordinary except their colors.

He signaled a charge. His men immeditely rushed forward, from the bushes and some leaped from the trees, but… Fwossh fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh fwoosh!

Argh! Gyah! Ugh —

Stings were flying towards his men when those supposed to be ordinary bees shot each of them.

"Wha—?" Breegoria was dumbfounded.

"Argh! Boss! Help!"

"Gyahhhh! I-It's so hot!"

"Oh no, I'm burning!"

"???" Breegoria and Berlin were puzzled. What are they saying —'hot?'.

Isn't bees supposed to be poisonous? They wondered.

Breegoria did not know that those bees were made of fire. And those things they fired were made of condensed magical energy to create a hot needle, which when pierced in the target's body they could cause a burn effect internally.

Cinder and the others were having ashen blue faces while looking at the enemies who were squirming in pain on the ground with their bodies turned reddish.

On the other hand, the bees flew everywhere, firing needle-like sting.

'What the heck is wrong with those people?' They thought.

"Hehe…" they heard a giggle from the suspect.

They felt a chill run down their spines. 'This guy was scary to be an enemy!' They shouted in their minds with a grim expression on their faces.

In Yman's vision, the enemy's green bars and the numbers inside it were deliberately decreasing.

<Partner,  the radar caught a presence with stronger Magical Aura in that forest.>

He heard his deity's warning.

'Mhm, I felt it too.'

<Tsk, your perception already reached that height. Sooner, the radar will become useless!>

He heard her worried voice.

'Fufu, that's imposible, it's not like my perception can do a mapping. If not because of your radar, we may end up being trap in that cave until the competition is over.'

<Indeed!>

Finally, her voice became lively.

He smiled. Looks like, his beloved deity was worried to become a useless deity.

'Besides, your appraisal was the best among all the deities,' he sang praise which was unusual to himself.

<.....> Sistela was speechless and wondered if her partner ate something good this morning.

The supposed stings were replaced by condensed fire needles. And because of the heat, the penetrative force was multiplied.

"Kill those flies!" Breegoria shouted which caused the nearby nesting little animals to scutter away.

A grin appeared in Yman's mouth when the voice of the Demihuman was translated to his ears.

One of Breegoria's men molded magical energy on his hand and shot the bee that was charging speedily while gliding left and right and was firing hot needles at the same time.

About a meter and a half away from Bregoria's man, the bee was hit by a wave of greenish energy. However, something happened that made them succumb in dispair.

BANG!

A loud explosion that immediately turned his men into light particles.

"Pufft" Yman held a chuckle.

"What happened?" Puzzled Tiafel.

"How is that possible?" Shocked Taflas.

"It exploded?!" Shouted Aegor.

"Ehhhh?!! They weren't just ordinary bees?!" Surprised Cinder. She and the rest shouted questions.

"Fufufu," Yman chuckled. His toys were made of fire, so an impact on them would disturb the atoms and would generate an explosion.

"Those bees were explosive. In truth, not only my bees but the others too. They are made of fire that is trapped inside a container which is their stomach. So rashly killing them is not a good idea," Yman explained.

'Wha—!' Cinder gaped. The truth was, she was about to prank one of them. Good thing she didn't do it.

Although the explosion wasn't so strong, it could K.O the unguarded one.

The best choice was to kill them while they were still away so that the explosion could not reach. Or used shield or any resistance, like impact and explosion resistance. However, their enemies were in chaos and could not think logically at the moment. And some were still suffering from pain caused by the burn effect of the hot needles.
