After the final meteor struck the earth, the screams vanished.
Only the wind remained.
And the sound of collapsing trees.
We waited in silence, weapons clenched tightly in our hands. Dust drifted through the air like ash from a dying world.
Then—
as the haze slowly began to fade—
dark silhouettes emerged from within the smoke.
"Now!" I shouted. "Don't let a single monster escape!"
"YEAH!!"
The moment my command rang out, everyone moved.
Key and Putih shot toward the left flank like streaks of shadow.
Ryda and Hellen rushed toward the right.
And Axxel—
charged straight through the centre.
From within the smoke, an elite goblin burst forward in panic, desperately trying to flee the impact zone.
From the opposite direction—
Axxel accelerated.
His greatsword flashed.
SLASH!
The goblin's head flew into the air.
On the eastern side, several monsters attempted to escape.
The fastest among them were black wolves.
