'One final push and we'll be able to breakthrough.'

Souta said inwardly. He had to make sure that they will get in Imperium before the reinforcement of the council arrives.

He slightly turned his head and glanced behind him. Everyone was trying their best to fight the soldiers of the council. But he knew that this wasn't enough.

Yuko and Doranjan have arrived and it only fills up the people that were tired from battle. The monsters, led by Red Dragon, were pushing the right flank of the enemy's formation.

They were doing great unlike the rest who were dead tired from fighting nonstop battles.

"Souta, we won't last long if this keeps up," Alice said to him while fighting an S-rank soldier.

"I realized that too. We need to make a move that will disrupt the enemy." Souta replied to her as he charged forward and clashed with the five S-rank soldiers.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He already activated two out of three equipment skills of the [Solid Hunter State Boots]. It slowed down his opponents and increased his speed.

It also increases the effect of his [Cat's Speed], [Dash], and [Shadow Step].

Souta's speed was raised to the limit as it let him keep up with five S-rank experts alone. He was equally changing blows with the five of them at the same time.

Dozens of flame spikes rushed towards him and he sliced the spikes using the [Cross Moon] skill.

Bang!

"Our leader is really something else... He is already exhausted fighting nonstop in the frontline yet he could still keep up with five S-ranks alone." Torkez commented as he glanced at the frontline.

The people that were fighting on the frontline were Souta, Alice, Eztein, Franklin, and some of the S-rank witches. They were trying to breach the tough formation of the council's forces.

"We should go now." Gragas, who was beside him, said.

"Yeah, we should do our best too," Torkez said before he charged forward.

Swoosh!

"I'm going to sneak around and cut down the numbers of the enemies," Isabella said before she disappeared from her position.

Gragas glanced at her before he shrugged his shoulder. Then, he followed Torkez.

...

Bang!

Souta was blown away as he received a powerful attack from his opponents. His wounds quickly closed as he stared at the five S-ranks who were rushing at him.

'I will cut down one of them.'

When the five arrived close to him, he quickly casted the [Dark Cloud Hunting] and used the gravitational field to push away the four S-rank.

He would focus his attention on one of them first. If he succeeded, then he will only have to fight four of them later.

As soon as the gravity field was activated, Souta stretched out his hand and a string of spider web flew out of his palm.

"This is..."

The S-rank didn't have time to think about it as Souta pulled the web.

Swoosh!

"Ah!"

He didn't have a choice but to collide with this monster. He gathered a huge amount of energy in an instant as he pulled back his hand.

He moved his eyes only to see seven humanoid shadows keeping up his four comrades. He quickly realized the plan of the monster in front of him.

"So your target is me? It's not easy to kill me!"

He roared as he threw a punch forward. His fist tore the tough armor on Souta's body as it created a huge gaping hole near Souta's chest.

Bang!

"Arggh!"

Souta endured the pain and he grabbed the head of the S-rank. A grin formed on his face and said, "I finally caught you!"

[Blessing of the God of Hunt]!

[Watching Prey]!

[Soul Blood Mode]!

[Element Drive: Dark Force]!

[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!

[First Form: Mahayan Tribulation]!

[Crimson Slash]!

[Bestrou]!

[Dark Shooting Ray]!

Several skills were used at the same time. The best feram inside Souta's monster orb and [Nebula Heart] rapidly decrease.

A bright blinding light erupted in his direction. It shook the entire space as the dense wave of best feram disrupted the mana flow in the whole area.

BOOOOOOMMM!!!

In the next moment, the light disappeared and only a gigantic monster was left. He was holding the head of the S-rank in his hand and the black armor on his body was tattered.

"Huff..."

The monster slightly opened his mouth and white mist oozed out of it.

Souta released the head of the S-rank and it floated near him. He finally killed one of them and it would make killing the other four easier.

"Prepare..."

He charged towards them at high speed. Since he activated his [Soul Blood Mode] and [Blessing of the God of Hunt], he needed to make sure to get rid of his opponents as soon as possible.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The battle between Souta and the four S-rank wasn't visible to ordinary people. They wouldn't be able to follow their movements as their perception was too low. They would only feel the aftershocks of the battle yet those aftershocks could disintegrate all the creatures below C-rank. Even C-rank and B-rank could hardly see their figures.

Shockwave after shockwave was sent out in the surrounding area as Souta exchanged blows with the four S-ranks hundreds of times.

The [Doppelganger] was helping him keep the S-ranks in bay. Fighting four was definitely easier than fighting five of them much less when he was using the [Soul Blood Mode] and blessing.

The four spider limbs on his back charged and it fired four [Bestrou] towards the four while using a gravity field to slow down their movements.

The same tactics had worked once again.

Souta zoomed the distance in one S-rank. He pointed the tip of his sword at the chest of the S-rank and used the attack skill of the [Solid Hunter State Boots].

[Rapid Demolition Spring]!

"Wha-"

The S-rank soldier opened his eyes widely as he looked at the scene before his eyes.

Souta's thrust the vajra sword forward thousands of times in an instant. Even the perception of an S-rank could hardly follow it.

It was too fast as the S-rank got overwhelmed by the pure attack speed of the skill called [Rapid Demolition Spring]. It was fast yet the damage wasn't that high so the S-rank managed to survive yet how could Souta let him go easily.

Although it didn't kill the S-rank, the damage it dealt was lethal. It left him on the verge of death.

"Too bad."

Using the four spider limbs on his back, Souta wrapped the S-rank in spider web before he used his finishing attack.

The combined [Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God], [Bestrou], and [Crimson Slash].

Boom!!

"Two down!"

Souta turned his head and said, "Let's go!! Push them with everything!"

The Guardian Fortress shoots several Mana Convergent Bomb once again.

The time was ticking and the reinforcement would arrive soon. The five S-rank experts that Souta fought weren't the only S-rank in the council's formation. Alice, Eztein, Yuko, Franklin, Doranjan, and the others were fighting S-rank experts too.

"Let's push them!"

Souta roared as a dense amount of best feram spread out. He clashed with the three S-rank and killed them using his finishing attack.

The amount of energy that he had left was close to zero. The parasite queen was also reaching its limit. Souta was slowing down but he knew that he had to keep moving forward.

[Insta Regen]!

He used the equipment skill of his red grade ring to recover some of his energy. It was a huge help to him and he would be able to fight a little longer with this.

"Huff... Just one more time."

Souta muttered as he caressed the black and white bracelet on his right wrist. He had no choice but to use this so that they could safely enter the Imperium. He didn't want others to know the ability of this bracelet yet.

Just like the [Soul Blood Earring], the [Yin Yang Bracelet] was a universal grade artifact.

The [Soul Blood Earring] didn't give the user immediate power. But the power that it provides was permanent even if the user threw the pair of earrings.

"I have already consumed the High Phaseless Fruit... So I have both light and dark attributes."

Black and white tattoos came out of the bracelet and it scattered in the space around Souta. A strange fluctuation of energy swept out as the tattoos started to merge together.

One was pitch black and the other was pure white. The two different color tattoos turned into two humanoid creatures.

The white creature was twenty meters tall. It had a pair of white wings on its back. It also has a pair of wings on its waist and its head. The creature had four slender arms and it has a huge hole in the center of its chest. It didn't have a face instead what was on its face was just a pure white orb. Three halos were hovering above its head and on its hand, it has a long golden staff.

The black creature had the same height. It didn't have eyes, ears, or nose. It only has a huge mouth that were filled with razor-sharp teeth. It was holding a huge greatsword that could slice through the thickest metals. It was covered with a gray robe but this robe was part of its body. It was filled with tiny sharp spikes.

[Yin Yang Twin Spirits]!

'Only people that had dark and light affinity could use this equipment skill.'
