=============

After a few minutes. I finally regained consciousness... The first thing I noticed is I was lying on Alice's lap. I quickly called her name to get her attention.

"Alice..."

"Bella, thank god you're awake." Alice rubbed the hair on my forehead as she replied, she didn't even bother looking at me as she was too occupied watching not too far from us. I immediately opened up the interface to check my status.

[Party Leader] Alice, [Level 5] [HP 800/1200]]

[Party Member] Cherry Cloud, [Level 5] [HP 400/1800]]

"We didn't die..." I concluded as soon as I noticed that my level was still the same and that we were still in the same location. I got up and as soon as my eyes scouted the area, the battle not far from us quickly got my attention.

[Party Member] Edizon, [Level 7] [HP 2000/2000]]

[Party Member] William, [Level 5] [HP 1900/1900]]

"It's them..."

"Yeah, they came just in time." Alice commented as she meekly studied the movements of the two men battling the huge humanoid wolf-like creature.

<Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 3450/5000]>

"It got stronger again..."

"Yeah... I think the narrow life and death situation that we gave him a while ago, forced its bloodline to evolve even further in order to survive its injuries. With a strong regeneration and a consistently evolving bloodline, this creature can probably evolve stronger if left unchecked."

"Tsch, why is a monster like this inside a beginner area anyway?"

"Maybe it's meant to get out of here..."

...

*Awooo*

"It's gonna charge again." Alice remarked as she noticed the stance of the wolf.

"Can they handle it?"

"Who knows..."

...

*Awooo* The huge wolf howled as it flexed both of its arms, revealing its sharp claws, it then charged towards the duo.

*Swoosh*

"It's fast!" Alice exclaimed as she watched the wolf charge forward. Edizon and William shortly glanced at each other before charging forward. The two ran at the same pace in a zigzag direction shuffling positions every three to five steps. Just when they were around two meters before the huge wolf, William hid behind Edizon while Edizon jumped forward to collide with the huge wolf.

"Such fluid movements..."

"They're about to engage!"

The huge wolf threw a swift claw towards Edizon. Edizon didn't even blink and quickly crouched down, causing the huge claw to hit nothing but air... Just when the wolf was about to retract its arm, Willam sprang from behind Edizon. While in the air, he instantly called the interface and summoned two heavy swords. After that, he slashed the two swords one by one in a rotating motion. The first heavy sword landed on the arm while the second one landed on the head of the huge wolf...

<Willam, Heavy Slash, 250 Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 3200/5000]>

<Willam, Heavy Slash, 520 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 2680/5000]>

"Such precise control..." Alice muttered as she recalled the time when William said that he was gonna use two great swords as a unique playstyle...

'Using the weight of the two swords to freely rotate and maneuver in the air... Is that even possible?!' The both of them had the same thought. It might be possible for a normal person to slightly bend a heavy swing during mid-air, but to aim and maneuver at the same time in mid-air? Just what kind of control is this?!

*HOWL!*

The wolf howled in pain, it tried to use its other hand to grab Willam but before it could retaliate, five consecutive hits immediately landed on its abdomen and other vital parts, forcefully gathering its attention. Willam then used this chance to kick back and somersault away towards the opposite direction of the wolf.

<Edizon, Knife Stab, 180 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 2500/5000]>

<Edizon, Knife Stab, 192 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 2308/5000]>

<Edizon, Knife Stab, 184 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 2124/5000]>

<Edizon, Knife Stab, 186 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 1938/5000]>

<Edizon, Knife Stab, 190 Critical Damage Dealt.> <Havoc, the Crazed One, Alpha Soft Wolf [Level 20] [HP 1748/5000]>

'Perfect synchronization...' The two awed with what they just observed. Just who were these two people in front of them? Just like in sports and other games, it would require a hundred hours more or less just to achieve a hint of an active bond within teammates. Yet these two are actually executing teamwork on such a level to kill a humanoid monster in a beginner area. Are these two new friends of theirs assassins in real life? What's more amazing is that Edizon managed to accurately hit five vital points within a short amount of time!

'Tsch... How could such people even exist...' Isabella almost cursed inside as frustration started to pent up inside her. She always deemed herself as one of the most talented in her generation, yet compared to these two, it's an exaggeration to say that she would be lucky if she got rated just a level lower than them.

"*Gulp*... They're cheating right?..." Alice couldn't help it anymore and asked Isabella. Isabella didn't answer and continued spectating the scene.

...

After feeling immense pain of having its vitals stabbed, the wolf immediately threw two consecutive swipes in a blind but wide angle, forcing the two to back off. The wolf howled repeatedly as its muscles bulged out even more, Its fur turned blood red and its claws and fangs extended by a few inches.

*HOWL!* *HOWL!* *HOWL!*

"They probably can't defeat it now..."

"Bella, let's run. I'm sure they'll understand..."

"Don't move! It can feel that we're here..." Isabella warned as waves of tremors in her heart sufficed. A cold chill ran through the spine of the two ladies as they felt the gaze of the wolf.

...

Back with Edizon and William.

"Even its aggro perimeter widened..." William informed as he noticed that the gaze of the wolf slightly pointed towards Alice and Isabella.

"I can't believe that crazed buff can stack with its enraged form..." Edizon complained upon reviewing new information on the interface.

"Can you still calculate is movements?" William challenged Edizon.

"Yes, but we can't match its speed anymore, even if we can predict its attack a second or a half earlier."

"That's not enough... Our level is still too low... We should think of something quick, its transformation is about to be finished." William warned as the both of them pondered over the situation.

"I got it. One of us would have to take one hit for every exchange." Edizon smiled upon stating his prediction. This was probably the moment when he realized how challenging this game could be. A twisted smile can be seen on his face as his eyes focused on the blood red wolf in front of them.

"Can you keep up?"

"Pft. Please."

"Let's go!"

...

The two continuously collided with the bloody red wolf. Just as Edizon predicted, one of them had to take a hit for every exchange. Due to the level difference, it would be farcry to catch this bloody wolf if it decided to escape again, so they made sure to slowly hack away the mobility of the bloody early on by targetting its legs and calves. After a few more exchanges, the wolf eventually dropped on its feet, waiting for the final blow. The two watched the whole battle in awe. After the end of the battle, the same question popped on their mind. Who exactly are these two?

...

To be continued.

Later offstage.

Isabella: Kiara, I told you not to mess with the script again. You just screwed up our last chance.

Kiara: What? I just wrote what I saw when I reviewed it in God mode.

Isabella: Then what the hell is this?!

"Edizon faked a cough again to get the attention of the two lovelorn piglets."

Kiara: God's judgement. *giggle* *giggle*

Isabella: *eye roll*

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock* (Alice knocking on the door.)

Isabella: What?!

Alice: I brought some cakes, you guys want some?

Isabella: Tsch, you guys are killing me!
