December 11th

Year 1051

In the centre of a deep forest of white trees, was a vast plain filled with snow-covered grasses all around. In this plain, two beings sat atop a rock as they stared at the setting sun.

The winter winds blew softly, rustling the clothes of these two as they remained still with their gazes up in the sky.

On the left side of the rock, was a boy in his late teens with snow-white skin and was pretty enough to be mistaken for a girl. His flowing black hair was smooth and reached his waist.

From the sides of his head, two curved horns could be seen jutting out, having intricately designed patterns on them.

He had a long red scaled tail that waved around in the air. His eyes were unlike normal, as he had red sclera and black pupils.

Inside his pupils, a golden inscription of a crest could be seen, a single letter, from an ancient language lost to time.

He yawned loudly as he took off his jacket and smoothened his blue jeans as he turned his gaze to the person beside him and asked.

"How much longer would it take?"

"Not too long."

A calm and collected baritone voice replied as the person beside him jumped down from the small rock and walked over to a tiny sack on the floor.

Green-coloured gas was flowing out of this sack, which was then carried by the wind into the sea of trees around them.

He was a fairly tall teenage-looking boy, with a shaven chin and short white hair that matched with the colour of the snow.

Dressed in a cassock underneath white priestly robes and a zucchetto atop his head. His robes were intricately designed with gold and silver linings, same with the red Humeral veil on his shoulders.

On the back of his robes, a large Golden Rose could be seen, showing his identity as a priest of the Church of Artemisia.

He turned his dark eyes in a certain direction, the golden inscription in his iris becoming fully visible as he spoke.

"They're here."

As soon as he spoke, monsters of various kinds began to emerge from within the sea of trees around them.

Most of these monsters was growling at them with bloodshot eyes, lacking all semblance of sanity while some others gazed at the two boys calmly.

Goblins, orcs, wolves, trolls, ogres, cicins; monsters that looked like oversized dragonflies and spectres, circular floating monsters at 50 cm in diameter with a single eye and wings that spun around atop their heads.

There were even some elemental lifeforms and a few monsters that looked like lesser mythical beasts.

These were all monsters that would normally be hacking and clawing at each other but they were all glaring at the centre of this clearing with the two boys in it.

The boy in priestly robes picked up the sack on the floor and tied it up before dropping it back to the ground.

Right before it hit the ground, a hole about 60 - 70cm in diameter appeared and the sack fell right into it.

The hole closed up afterward as the boy turned to his companion who was staring at the monsters with a smile on his face.

"After you."

"Why, thank you."

The black-haired boy jumped down from the rock as red scales began to appear on his neck, his fingernails growing longer and becoming sharper as he took a stance.

His tail snaked around as a sharp spike protruded from the edge of it, tapping the ground twice as he spoke.

"Ten minutes, if I'm not done, you can join in."

**BOOOMM!!!

As soon as he was done speaking, he kicked off the ground with enough force to leave a small crater in the earth as he sped into the swarm of monsters.

"RAAAAA!!!!!!!"

"ROAAARRRRRR!!!"

The stronger and more intelligent monsters saw his action as an act of hostility and roared out loudly, rallying the weaker monsters as they all charged toward the boy.

Some of the higher monsters like goblin chiefs, Orc Lords, Ogre generals and Wolf Lords roared and activated skills to empower their subordinates, increasing their morale as they jumped into the fray.

The black-haired boy had a wide grin on his face as he jumped up into the air and landed in the midst of the monsters.

**BAMMM!!!

He crashed into the ground, squashing the bodies of some monsters due to the force of his landing and releasing shockwaves that pushed the other away.

From then on, it was a slaughter.

He hacked at a random Orc's throat with his claws and laughed as he spun around and splashed the blood on the eyes of a wolf that jumped on him from behind.

"AWOO!!"

Taking advantage of the wolf's blinded state, he grabbed it from its tail and swung it around, bashing the wolf's body into the head of a random troll, causing it to lose its footing.

He then climbed to the top of the troll's body and stabbed his claws into its head multiple times, ending its life instantly.

Without waiting for its body to drop to the ground, he jumped off and landed on another orc that was attempting to cast some sort of magic, pulling its staff away and bashing its skull to bits with that same staff.

The staff shattered to pieces but he used the broken handle in his hand to finish off another wolf monster that jumped on him from behind.

? "RAAAA!!!"

A loud roar resounded as another horned monster came charging on with a shield, knocking others out of the way as it slammed into the boy's body.

The force of the slam knocked him into the air but the monster didn't give him a chance to fall as similar monsters dropped to their knees and let it use their bodies as a foothold to jump into the air and give chase.

"RAAAA!!"

The horned monster screamed out as it jumped into the air with shield in hand, raising the shield overhead as it slammed down on the boy.

Right before it hit, the monster's eyes flashed as the wooden shield was instantly covered by steel and spikes grew out from it.

**BAMMM!!!

The shield slammed onto the body of the boy, sending him crashing to the ground with enough force to create a small 10-meter-wide crater.

Seeing that its attack succeeded, the monster landed on the ground and commanded its brethren to hack away at the fallen boy.

Without hesitation, they all dashed towards him with weapons of various kinds raised high, intending of slashing him to bits.

Nevertheless, they had to be careful for fear of friendly fire. Although they wanted him dead, they didn't want to kill their brethren in the process.

"KAAA!!"

The first monster swung its great sword that was twice its height down, but surprisingly, it never reached the ground.

"KAA??"

Before it could even realise what happened, it felt pain in its torso and looked down to see a spiked tail stabbing into its stomach.

The next moment, something flashed as the monster's head was separated from its neck, its large body falling down to the ground as its blood stained the snow red.

The shied-bearing monster narrowed its eyes upon seeing this and slammed its foot on the ground as it roared to activate its skill.

Magic power poured into the ground and travelled underground, as the bodies of its brethren were instantly covered in steel starting from the pints where their feet touched the ground.

Seeing their armoured states, the monsters roared as they slashed down on where the boy was, however, their swords tore the earth and their clubs flattened the soul.

Sadly, their target was long gone as the screams of other monsters could be heard coming from another part of the swarm, their gazes turning to see their intended target wielding a large great sword he grabbed from a fallen goblin chief and lopping off the heads of other hobgoblins with it.

He then flung the sword into the air randomly, kicking off the ground the second after as he dashed towards a spectre in the distance, piercing the monster's only eye and flinging its entire body to slam into the cicins beside it.

He poured magic power into his left leg and stomped it on the ground, releasing a shockwave that pushed back all the monsters around him by at least ten meters,

This distance was covered again in the next moment as more monsters swarmed him, the wolves leading the charge as three wolves simultaneously jumped at him from different directions.

He turned his back to one of the wolves and stretched out his claws to clash with the two in front of him, his tail lifting off the ground and slamming into the one behind him and sending it flying.

One of the wolves, used his body as a foothold and jumped backward, landing on the ground and roaring as a wave of sound was emitted sent out from its position.

"GUH!"

He grinned in pain as the sound waves hit his ears, temporarily disorienting him and giving the second wolf enough time to jump at his neck.

*KRIIN!!

To the wolf's surprise, its jaws scratched off the scales on his neck, not even penetrating them by an inch.

Its surprise delayed it long enough for the boy to recover and grab the wolf with his claws and fling its body in the direction of the other one.

**PSHEWW!!!
