Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

Adventurer's association classifies a monster according to the threat level it represents to the humanity and gives them an appropriate class. If the monsters they have met up until now were only around normal and strong, then the being in front of them whose level surpassed 500, fell in the disaster class.

A class that could bring disaster to a large number of humans, towns, or a large city. There weren't even that many high-level adventurers in their kingdom and those that were could only be seen near the capital.

A disaster class being could only be subjugated by those adventurers, even their guild master who was the highest level among them, was only around level 360.

The moment when the race and the level of the entity in front of them was revealed, the morale of these adventurers immediately faltered and they couldn't but cower in front of the enemy.

Right when they were about to lose all will to fight, was when a shout that reinvigorated their spirits reverberated in their ears.

"Do not waver, do not let your resolve die down. Even if the enemy is stronger than us, they are only but one. As long as we remember our training and experience, we won't be defeated".

After roaring out everything he had in his mind, Blake for the first time took out a long shield from his space ring and wielded his broad sword with one hand. Just like earlier, his armour and even his shield started glowing a glaring red, raising the temperature around.

"I don't know what skill that thing is using but it is definitely Dark magic. Kody, wake those idiots up. Frida get ready to back me up with a big one, I don't know how long I can stop that thing. If worse comes to worst, I leave the judgement of using that thing to you".

Right after saying that, he raised his shield and charged towards the entity in front of him. The glaring hot shield was right about to make contact with it when the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse reared its two pairs of powerful forelegs and thumped onto the shield.

BANG…

Blake felt a powerful force hit his shield and nearly lost all sensation in his arm. His body skidded back a few meters and only came to a stop when he used his sword to dig into the ground and kill the momentum.

Blake took hurried breaths and observed his shield which now had four hoof prints imprinted on it. From that clash alone, he clearly felt the difference between them.

The entity after sending him flying, did not move from its place and simply observed them with its ominous six eyes.

Kody who had finished chanting a light magic spell that dispelled all kinds of Mental dark magic, cast a small healing magic at him. Feeling the sensation of his left arm return to him, Blake was just about to rush it once again when he saw multiple warriors from his guild encircle the entity.

Their years of exploring and working together, allowed them to coordinate seamlessly together and read each other's patterns. Various fire magic formed in the air above as the mages in the backlines, casted their spell.

It was not like they did not have mages who had mastery over other attributes; however, since their prioritised fire magicians, they had more of them. Dozens of [Flame Spears], [Fireballs], [Fire Bullets], [Wind Blasts], [Earth Spikes] shot towards the immobile Bloodthorn demonic warhorse leaving it with no place to dodge.

The warriors encircling it, hurriedly backed away and saw the entity being engulfed in the aftermath of the magic.

BOOOMM… a huge explosion that rocked this part of the forest for dozens of meters, spread out tearing down all the trees and grasses on the way. The adventurers rejoiced after seeing all the magic hitting the entity squarely, even if it was above level 500 and labelled as a disaster class, it must have felt it.

Flames engulfed their vision and burned the entity within. Blake, Frida and Kody who had the highest levels among the group, wore apprehensive faces as they gazed at the scene of explosion. They could tell that the entity had deliberately chosen to take on their attacks instead of dodging.

Even if it was just novice tier magic, there were more than dozens of them. Was the entity that confident of its defence? Even the three of them had no idea, this was the first time they had seen something like it and had no way of knowing what it specialised on.

They could only hope the attack from earlier would give them some clue.

The fire that was raging out, suddenly flickered and dispersed into tiny embers before being snuffed out. The Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse who had been engulfed in a barrage of attacks, slowly walked out in front of multiple stunned gazes.

Even after taking on all of those attacks, it's body didn't have a tiny scratch.

"T-That's impossible" the mages in the backlines had wide disbelieving seeing their attack do no damage.

Blake walked towards Frida and gave her a meaningful glance, he then next led the warriors into encircling the entity in the middle like a net.

Surrounded by all front, the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse gave these people a derisive glance. Thick black smoke started emitting out of his body painting everything black. The black haze like a deadly poison, corroded everything and anything until they were tiny particles.

Seeing a black haze spread out of its body, the guild master of the burning arrow guild hurriedly gave the warriors the order to back away. His instincts that had been polished through years of efforts and battles, was ringing alarm bells at this moment.

And as if to prove him right, the black haze like a plague corroded everything and anything that it touched until not even their remains were left behind.

A white light that brought along a soothing and cleansing effect collided with the black haze and pushed it back swiftly nonetheless, it was unable to dissipate all of it.

Kody who was chanting one spell after another, suddenly felt his heart tighten when he saw the gaze of the entity land on him. Cursing inwardly, he was just about to retreat to the backlines when suddenly the remaining haze turned into an arrow and shot towards him.

Everything happened so fast that before anyone could get the chance to interfere, the black arrow was already upon him. Unable to dodge it, Kody gritted his teeth and took out a pendant from his clothes.

The moment the black arrow approached a few inches near him, a transparent membrane-like shield encased his body and protected him from the incoming attack. He sighed in relief when he saw the attack bounce off but the next second, his eyes widened to their limits to see tiny cracks appear on the shield.

The pendant on his hand was a [B] rank artefact that upon activation created a shield of light that had the ability to block all kinds of attacks. Even if it was Frida, she would have a lot of trouble conjuring up an attack that could actually break his shield.

Nevertheless, even a casual attack from the entity in front of him, was enough to nearly break his shield. Kody felt a cold wind brush past his body thinking what would happen to him had he not used the artefact.

He swiftly fell back to the backlines and chanted one healing spell after another.

With Blake and the warriors keeping the entity busy, Kody providing support, the responsibility of leading the mages and the others fell on Frida. Seeing them blankly staring at their enemy without casting any spell, she had the urge to smash them with her staff.

"What are you idiots doing standing there in a daze? You comrades and friends in the vanguard are fighting with their life on line. You all on the other hand had your will to fight broken after casting a single spell. Are you still the members of the Burning Arrow Guild?".

Her fiery words woke the mages up from their daze and they felt their spirits lifting once again. So what if their attacks was unable to scratch their enemy? They could just keep bombarding it with their spells, over time the entity is sure to feel it.

Frida smiled satisfyingly after bolstering their morale, she then cleared her mind and focused on chanting her own spell. As the highest level mage of this guild, she had the most damaging power. Her rare class [Pyro Mage] allowed her powerful mastery over fire attribute of mana leading her to her nickname the Hellbringer.

As she raised her staff, thick volumes of flames started materialising and coagulating together becoming a one huge flaming ball. The power behind her attack was so great that the surrounding air visibly distorted.

The intense heat from her magic made all those mages behind her who were confident of their fire magic lower their head in despondence.

BOOM…BOOMM…BOOMM… one magic after another bombarded the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse nevertheless, none of it managed to do anything. The constant attack and encirclement was starting to annoy it and so it opened its mouth and neighed.

NEEIIIGHH…an ominous and coarse roar that could give goosebumps to anyone listening to it, echoed out. The roar was so loud and powerful that adventurers in the front had to cover their ears.

BANG…BANG…BANG… what followed after the roar was a series of multiple muffled explosions. . When Blake and the other looked behind them, they were stunned to find multiple mages falling onto the ground coughing out a mouthful of blood.

The magic that they have been conjuring, was suddenly disturbed by that roar leading to it self-destructing. The backlash from the mana going haywire, caused them to suffer internal injuries.
