Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 70: CHAPTER 70 – Inside the Special S-Rank gate.

As the raiders from Crimson Lotus entered the gate, they were on high alert.

They were ready to face anything, but as they entered the gate, they found themselves falling from the sky toward the ground.

How could they be ever ready for this?

They were 100 meters high in the sky, but they could see trees below them that had a height of 30 meters, which meant they could just get a hold of the tree and survive.

Every raider readied themselves to grip whatever they could from the tree or else even if they were not going to die, they would still be injured and that was not something they wanted to be in an undiscovered gate, the fact that it was an S-rank special gate only made it hard for them.

They continued to fall for some seconds and just before they were about to reach 30 meters which was the height of the tree, they stopped midair.

They didn't know what was happening and the first thought that came to their minds was an enemy as they didn't know anyone with flying ability in their guild.

Everyone started struggling, trying to free themselves from the strange restrictions they felt, but then one guy noticed Alice, Ann, Noctura, and Alex standing in the air, looking at them with amused expressions.

It didn't take time for him to understand that it was their doing and his eyes inadvertently turned toward Alex as he knew that neither Alice nor Ann had this kind of ability.

He gave a respectful nod to Alex who nodded back to the guy and made a platform for him to stand instead of holding him midair.

The guy stood straight and looked around curiously as it was not every day that one gets the chance to stand midair, so the guy enjoyed the scenery.

All of this didn't go unnoticed by others as they also noticed Alice, Ann, Alex, and Noctura standing calmly. One by one every one of them started calming down and looking around as they were all given a platform to stand.

(Note: Alex was not using telekinesis, he was simply restricting their movements by making the air around them dense)

Their enjoyment didn't last long....

*Screech*

All of them instantly turned towards the source of the sound and their bodies tensed as they saw the source of the sound. They could see some large beasts flying towards them and they were very fast, from the looks of it they didn't seem in a good mood as well.

They had large wings and large beaks but unlike normal birds' beaks theirs were sharp and they looked like they were ready to cut someone.

If one were to describe how they looked then the best thing that would match them would be a Hatzegopteryx. They were 5 - 6 meters tall, and they were very fast, just from their speed alone one could tell they were either an A-rank or S-rank.

"Everyone here likes eating chicken, right?" The raiders were breaking out of their thoughts when they heard a calm voice, and they saw that it was Alex who spoke.

But it didn't end there as they saw Ann nodding her head and Noctura had saliva coming out of her mouth.

"Yeah, we should start our raid with roasted chickens," Alice also agreed to Alex's suggestion without hesitation.

She could tell that the monsters that were flying toward them were not dangerous for her and she could take care of them easily.

The raiders who heard this were shocked and they looked at Alice and Alex as if they were looking at idiots.

Some even tried to clean their ears as they thought that maybe they heard it wrong but looking at Alice who was stretching on the invisible platform, they knew that it was not them hearing things and the thing they heard was actually true.

They were still in disbelief when they saw Alice and Alex exchanging a glance before both of them raised one of their hands and opened their palms toward the incoming flock of beasts.

*SCREECHH*

The beasts screamed louder as they felt that they were being underestimated.

The raiders got ready to attack as the beasts were now just 50 meters away. Frank was about to run towards Alice to protect her, but the next second everyone stopped their movements.

It was not because of Alex using temporal pause, it was because what they saw was just that shocking.

The moment Alex and Alice raised their palms, the air around them started heating up, and suddenly a beam of fire was shot from their palms.

The beam was not uniform and simple as it kept increasing in size as it moved forwards, by the time it reached the beasts, the beam had a diameter of 20 meters. As both Alex and Alic's beams moved towards the flock of those beasts, they engulfed all of the beasts in themselves.

The spectators were shell-shocked by the scene as they never knew that something like this was possible.

But Frank had just one question – How did Alice get this strong?

He knew how strong Alice was but right now, he felt that she was much more stronger than he knew her to be.

However, the things didn't end there as they saw the scorched and burning beasts falling toward the ground only to be stuck on the tree.

Then they noticed something, they saw that the beasts were not being burned, they were being roasted.

It was like both Alice and Alex knew just how much heat was required to not burn the beasts, just like that slowly the beasts were all roasted, ready to eat.

None of them knew when, but they had already forgotten the shocking power display they saw earlier as they had their focus on the roasted meat in front of them, after all, who doesn't like meat?

As they were thinking about how to pull those roasted beats down on the floor, they saw themselves slowly descending downward.

"Be ready, we might get greeted by some unexpected guests at our party."

They heard Alex speak as they were being lowered.

Everyone became serious as they understood the meaning behind Alex's words, and they got themselves battle-ready.

As everyone was fully focused and battle-ready they could hear and focus on every single noise so they could hear the sounds of someone running at very fast speed on the ground.

They heard hurried footsteps from every side, low snarls, and snapping of twigs. This was enough to let them know that whoever was down there was not a friendly guest at least.

But just as they were about 5 meters from the ground all the sounds vanished, it was like they were never there in the first place. The place became eerily silent giving them chills.

They were in the middle of a giant forest, but they could hear the sound of each other's breaths.

As they landed on the ground, they cautiously looked around, ready for anything.

They could see that Alex and Alice were just above them standing in the air, while Ann and Noctura were nowhere to be seen. Even though both Alice and Alex looked relaxed, the raiders below them felt that they were being protected.

What they didn't know was that some beasts in this forest were very sensitive to mana, they could somewhat tell who was strong or who was weak if they were close enough, and the beasts they were about to face were one of those.

Right now, the beasts hiding in the bushes, who turned out to be Ornithomimids, could tell that the two people above were not something they could defeat, but that didn't mean they were scared.

Ornithomimids were quite fast on their foot, and they were sure that they were the fastest so all they needed to do was run after they were done.

The raiders waited for their enemies to attack while the Ornithomimids waited for the Raiders to lower their guards.

The tension in the air stayed like that for a while until it was broken...…
