Without wasting any time, Erza's figure went into motion as she flew toward the remaining dozen people. The black sword effortlessly stabbed into the throats of two of the men, claiming the lives of two Late Knights with ease.

Erza did not have any intentions of letting a single Rage Mercenary escape. After killing two of the Late Knights at lightning fast speed, Erza once again turned into a blur as she left faint afterimages on her path.

*Pch! Pch! Pch!*

In an instant, three other Late Knights had their throats pierced.

"Stop, stop! If there's something you want to say, say it quickly!" The scarred man cried out to Erza in a frantic manner as he dodged to the side. Right now his expression was no longer that of shock, instead, horror and desperation adorned it.

Erza stopped her massacre for a brief moment before staring at the remaining mercenaries. "Speak then, where is your captain?"

In the restaurant, Erza had figured out that the captain of the Rage Mercenaries was a Mid King Realm expert. Within this group of people, she had realized that not a single one of them were at that level. With this situation, that could only mean that the captain was not here. That would not do, since the one Erza wanted to kill the most was the captain.

The scarred man let out a deep breath as he tried to calm his nerves. Unsuccessfully, he stared at Erza and spoke with a trembling voice, "My Lady, I don't know what our Rage Mercenaries captain has done to offend you to the point that you want to eradicate us all."

Compared to before, the scarred man's attitude had taken a complete turn. He could not help but have a wild guess that the captain might have sullied the girl in front of him.

Erza's cold gaze turned even darker as she slowly walked toward the scarred man. Each step she took made the man even more nervous.

"I'll ask you one last time, where is your captain?" Erza had not bothered to answer his enquiry.

Seeing how Erza was approaching him, the man took a few steps back with some hesitation, "Where ever the captain is, I do not know…"

Hearing that, Erza's eyes flashed coldly and cared no more for the scarred man. Instantly appearing in front of him, the black sword stabbed straight for the man's throat.

The man's face suddenly dropped as he tried to fly backward. He also attempted to block her sword. However, before he could even bring his sword into position, Melforce had already approached his neck and buried itself deeply within. The bloody tip protruded through the back of his neck.

Seeing that the scarred man, despite being a Peak Knight Realm expert, still easily fell at her sword, the remaining few mercenaries' faces all paled in fright.

"Run away! Find the captain; he's the only one that can avenge us!" One of the mercenaries cried out in terror as he ran for the gates to Mirage City.


"Right, find the captain, quickly!"

The other mercenaries suddenly came to their senses. Without further hesitation, they each threw each other behind in their attempts to escape from the place.

Erza slowly pulled the bloody Melforce from the dead scarred man. Looking at the escaping Rage Mercenaries, she sneered before following them on their way out.

Not too long after Erza had left, the group of people that had followed her from the restaurant suddenly appeared in a huge crowd at the Rage Mercenaries headquarters.

However, just as this group of people saw the terrifying sight that lay beyond the broken gates, all their faces grew alarmed as they could not believe what they were seeing.

From the time it took for Erza to enter the headquarters until when she left, it had not even been over a minute. In such a short amount of time, the headquarters had been littered with corpses of over a hundred men. Such a sight would astound anyone.

Although Mirage City was on the verge of being besieged by wild beasts, no one within Mirage City was feeling any sort of dread or panic. The only difference was that the atmosphere in the city was a little heavy, but the citizens continued on with their business as usual.

The Desolate Beast Mountain Range was very close to Mirage City–about twenty kilometres away. Over time, those who were born and raised in this city were all used to the besiegement of the wild beasts. Every single time wild beasts attacked the city, this small city would always stand straight and tall.

Within Mirage City, the city lord had announced the news as well as posted the mission within the Mercenary Union, practically every single mercenary had congregated within Mirage City in preparation for the wild beasts attack.

Nowadays, the streets within Mirage City had more people than ever. If one were to look closely, one would notice most of the people walking the streets were mercenaries who were also making most of the racket.

"Out of the way, the way I said! Out of the way!"

At this moment, a loud and frantic voice rang through the streets causing everyone to turn their heads. They could only see a few middle aged man barreling through the streets desperately. Each one of them wore different coloured robes but the insignia on their chests were identical.

Whoever was unfortunate enough to block their way was unceremoniously pushed aside, causing them to earn the ire and curses of everyone. Some had grown violent and the stronger men began to bring out their weapons as if looking to make them pay for their crime.

"Look at their badges, aren't they members of the Rage Mercenaries?"

"They're really the Rage Mercenaries, why are they in such a panicked state? It's almost as if they're being chased by someone."

When a few of the people on the streets recognized the badges on the men, they were all surprised to see this strange event. Even the men that had been pushed out of the away by them suppressed their furious wrath the moment they heard that the group was from the Rage Mercenaries.

The captain of the Rage Mercenaries, Edward was a Mid King Realm expert. Since Mirage City was quite a small city, a Mid King was considered to be the apex of experts within the city.

Now that the Rage Mercenaries had a Mid King within their ranks, their status had skyrocketed to become one of the strongest groups in the city. Not many people would dare to offend the Rage Mercenaries.

These Rage Mercenaries members ran through the streets at a fast pace until they finally disappeared within the crowd. On the road, they attracted the flabbergasted eyes of the nearby bystanders.

As soon as the Rage Mercenaries disappeared within the crowd, a red light suddenly shot through the crowd and chased after the Rage Mercenaries members from behind.

"What's happening, could the Rage Mercenaries have run into trouble?"

"That can't be. Right now the Rage Mercenaries have a Mid King and also have the close support of the Collin Clan. Who could possible be looking for trouble with them?"

...

From this, everyone on the streets began to think up random conjecture as they shared every possibility with each other.

The Rage Mercenaries continued with their mad and desperate dash for another ten kilometres where they finally reached a grand looking mansion with a large four meters tall and six meters wide gate.

On top of the large gate, a wide board had the words "Collin Clan" written in dazzling gold words. Just from this alone, those who looked at the sign could tell that the owner of this house had a considerable amount of financial power and was quite strong physically.

"Let us in, we are a part of the Rage Mercenaries with important business with the captain!" A Rage Mercenary member called out frantically to the guard standing right next to the gate.

When the guard saw the group of people rushing at him with such frantic looks on their faces, he knew that something was happening and did not dare to obstruct them any longer, allowing them to go inside.

Within the Collin Clan's residence in a grand hall, a single seventy year old elder sat at the first position of a table with ten other members nearby.

The elder stared at a heavily armoured figure nearby. The man looked like someone from the military and he was sturdy and calm.

"Commander Arnold, you need not to worry about this. Our Collin Clan has towered over the rest of Mirage City for ten years, it can be said that Mirage City is our hometown now. This matter of the wild beast wave will indeed have our Collin Clan ready to fight. We will give it our all to defend Mirage City."

The armoured middle aged man gave a small smile as he cupped his hands together, "With the words of Collin Clan's Elder, this commander is relieved. With the Collin Clan added to our forces, then our victory is assured, and since sire Edward is now a Mid King, this is truly a celebration to be joyous about."

The elder's face had a gratified smile on it after hearing those words, but he spoke modestly, "Commander Arnold gives too much praise. Edward's talent is too outstanding. We've just spent many coins on beast cores which allowed him to practice and break through into the Mid King Realm smoothly." The elder then looked at another man sitting far down the table.

This man wore a blue coloured robe with his hair tied up in a whip like fashion that hung over his shoulders. His eyes had a calm yet, powerful look. This man was the leader of the Rage Mercenaries–Edward.

Just as the elder finished talking, a loud frantic cry came bursting in from the hallways outside the room.

"Captain, captain! Something terrible has happened, truly a terrible matter!"

As soon as the voice was heard, suddenly, a man with the Rage Mercenary insignia on his chest came bursting into the room with a few other men behind him panting wildly.

These men's sorrowful appearances caused everyone that noticed it to furrow their eyebrows in surprise. Some had even looked at them with an annoyed face.

"Impudence! Do you not see that we are having a meeting here? Who let you in, do you not remember our rules, our system of conduct?"

"Clan leader, something bad has happened! An extremely strong and terrifying girl has declared a war on us! Our hundred member strong Rage Mercenaries has been eradicated and only the ones here are left alive!" The leader of the group cried out to the elder.

Hearing that, everyone in the vicinity grew alarmed.

"What? Did you just say that you are all that are left of the Rage Mercenaries?" Edward spoke with a serious face. Immediately standing up, he strode on over to the man with a loud shout.

"Yes, captain! It is only us that are alive!" The mercenary shouted miserably with a small tremble to his voice.

"No one else?" Edward's eyes instantly grew dark.

"Everyone is….everyone is dead, captain." Another mercenary said.

Hearing this, a great amount of killing intent flowed out from Edward as he growled furiously, "Who would dare…"

*Bang!*

Before Edward could finish his statement, the large gates to the Collin Clan's mansion blew open with a great sound before breaking into four different pieces that flew into the courtyard.
