'Sophia, remove the penalty,' Alex spoke inwardly without any change in expression on the outside.

[You want me to remove the penalty tab forever? You know that I can't do it, don't you?]

'You know what I am talking about, Sophia. Don't play dumb, it might be entertaining for you, but I find it annoying.

Just remove these annoying penalties, I don't want them. If you just want to give me penalties then make it something related to my power.

For example: - Locking my Supreme human bloodline for 1 hour/ 2 hours/ 12 hours/ a day/ something similar.

I just don't want these annoying penalties….'

Alex explained that he didn't want to remove the whole penalty tab as it was there for a purpose, but he didn't like the thought of his body randomly going out of his control and doing something he didn't want to do.

[…..All right, I will see to it. Anything else?]

'The hidden quest, how is it activated?' Alex questioned.

[Hidden quest is activated every time there is a hidden enemy waiting for you or in a situation where you discovered a hidden territory, place, item, etc.]

'I see….' Alex had somewhat guessed it but it was good to have confirmation.

'Then, do you happen to know anything about that unknown book in the reward of hidden quest?' Alex asked again, though this time he wasn't expecting an answer.

[….No, I don't.] Sophia answered in a low voice.

She knew that Alex asked it even though he knew that she couldn't answer it and just like Alex she also didn't like restrictions. She wants to break the restriction over her and freely move and watch over the system, but she can't.

She was not strong enough to go against the system and the restrictions set over her.

'Hey, it's fine, I was just asking...' Alex also noticed Sophia's mood, so he tried to cheer her up.

[I know, I am not sad, I am just frustrated that I can't help you more.]

Alex just smiled inwardly as he heard words, but he didn't say anything after that and continued jogging.

However, the jogging he was doing was far from normal as he would swing his simple sword here and there, randomly cutting some beasts that came in their way while jogging with everyone else.

This action shocked the raiders as they could tell that Alex was not even using any force behind his attacks and just swinging his sword randomly.

But there was one guy with black hair and black eyes who was holding a sword in his hand and looking at Alex with shock greater than anyone.

He was a swordsman, even before the gates appeared so he knew how to use swords and he knew the way of swords.

He could easily tell that what Alex was doing was far from random slashes, they were perfectly calculated and controlled strikes, and it was not possible to do that till one had trained with swords for a long time.

The guy's name was James Foster, he was a guy in his late 20s, he had seen his father train, and he knew that even his father who was in his 50s couldn't achieve what the young man in front of him had achieved.

But he kept his shock to himself and didn't voice it out, though he still decided to ask for some pieces of advice on swordsmanship from Alex.

Just then Alex stopped moving, and Alice along with Ann also stopped and gestured for everyone to stop.

Everyone was a little confused until...

"Click-Hiss-Growl…."

All of them got into battle-ready forms as they heard the strange calls of some beasts.

The whole forest had turned quiet and the only sound they could hear was the strange calling sounds of some raptor-type beasts.

The raiders could hear the beasts moving around them in slow and deliberate movement as if observing them.

The sound of twigs snapping and clicking sounds of the raptor's calls added a sense of eeriness in their surroundings.

But then they heard another loud high-pitched call.

"Click-Click-Click"

It seemed to be a retreat order for the Raptors as the raiders could hear the receding footsteps of the Raptors.

"What was that....?" Alice asked as she was ready to blast some raptor skulls only for them to run away.

"They are experienced hunters, they won't make the same mistakes as the ornithomimids. Their leader probably judged us to be dangerous and decided to call for a retreat, which I would say was a nice decision."

Alex spoke as if answering Alice's question, but everyone heard his words.

The raiders relaxed a bit but then Alex continued.

"However, I would advise you to not let your guard down. They just retreated as they weren't sure of their victory, they are still following us from a distance."

As Alex's words sounded, the raiders became alert again.

"Let's move!" Alice commanded after she saw Alex nodding at her.

Their speed this time was slower as they would react to any or every sound they heard from the forest, be it flapping of wings, some strange calls of beasts, or any other sounds.

They killed many beasts as they jogged through the forest.

It was not just Alex, Alice, and Ann who were killing beasts here and there, even the raiders were doing the same.

Among the raiders, the one who killed most beasts after Alex, Alice, and Ann was probably Maggie as she was an archer with unlimited arrows, and she could kill her enemies from afar.

They continued jogging through the forest and in an hour or two they had completely forgotten about the raptors that had been following them. (Everyone except Alex, Alice, Ann, Frank, of course.)

The raptor leader who had been observing them from a distance could see them fighting and it could tell that they were strong, but it wasn't going to attack them for now.

It waited more, it waited for them to get tired, and finally, after one more hour, it finally got its chance.

"Click-Click-Click-Click."

It ordered its subordinate to spread out while it also moved towards the group of raiders stealthily, without making a sound, and unlike last time, there was not a single sound of twigs breaking or bush rustling as the raptors moved toward the ground of relaxed raiders.

The leader of those raptors failed to notice that its move had already been discovered by someone who had been observing their movements from the start.
