Chapter 51: Simulation [1]
The monsters jumped out of the tall and withering trees, locking onto the noise which was Gale, and Shin. Their attack was prevented by Esther, Kyo, and Hugo from ever reaching their flesh
"Ancestral awakening, Agility boost," Kyo\'s eyes became that of his Beast counterpart giving him a better view of his battle along with his feet reconstructed to aid him in combat
[System: The player Kyo min soo has activated the skill Ancestral awakening, you\'ve awakened your lungs, feet, and eyes]
Kyo used the trees to launch himself at the monsters. His eyes could let him see a mark etched around the monsters; it was giving him a different feeling once he saw it. And when he finally closed into one of the monsters he experimented with his newly found ability. He strikes the marked area of the monster, and the result he found was a killing blow. His eyes weren\'t only helping him see through the cold and dark forest but he can see through his opponent\'s weak spots
[System: You\'ve unlocked Ancestral eyes! You can now see your opponent\'s vulnerable spots that will be shown as a marked area]
"Basic sword arts, Duel wield, Physical boost," Esther activated multiple skills in quick succession
In a split second, she noticed Kyo\'s attack knocking down a monster with a single strike. She paid attention to the spot he struck and used it to come up with her way of dealing with those monsters. The monsters were sensitive to their hearing, she slammed her scabbard into a tree causing all the nearby monsters to surround her
"Basic swords arts, Blade dance," Before they could strike her, she vanished from their view and reappeared on their back
Her blade shredded their limbs while she moved to her next victim. With every move she took her form changed from one attack to another. In the moonlight that shone in the dark forest, she appeared to be dancing while she saw the monsters as her partner. With every swing of her sword, she cuts their arms down to their legs and when they came near her she stabbed them through their hearts
[She\'s amazing isn\'t she?]
"Her sword style changed from the last time I saw her," Hugo was killing each monster that was getting closer to the others until one of them slipped from his range and broke through his defense
[Hugo one of them got loose, catch it immediately]
With just a simple mistake his defense was broken which leads to a breach in their formation. The monsters rallied together and charged toward Shin, Yoona, Gale, and lastly Blake. Even if the four of them grouped and cover each of their blindsides the monster\'s overwhelming numbers were too much for them to handle
"Everyone duck," Quon appeared in the middle of the battle along with Airis
After she notices that everyone followed her orders, she began to release a volley of Magic orbs perfectly aimed through their weak spots saving the four of them from the simulated monsters

"What the hell, oh it\'s you I guess you wanted to talk about something? Well come inside it\'s awkward if we\'re talking at my door," Morris was met by a visitor the night before they would apply for their targets
"You can\'t be serious? Morris, I\'m not sure that I could protect a little girl while I\'m working in Malcolm\'s company," Yoona said upon hearing her rageful tone
He laughed at her concerns like a madman and didn\'t stop until she gets closer to him and pulled on his robe shaking him like a rag doll
"Do you think this is funny? Lives can be lost, and I don\'t want to be a part of this if you\'ll give me a mission that won\'t suit someone of my talents... im not a babysitter, Morris," Yoona\'s eyes were staring directly at his equipped with murderous intent and he replied with
"Do you think you\'re underestimating her a little bit? Aren\'t you forgetting that my allies are second in power to me? I\'m not recruiting just any person that I met, all of them must be gifted or born with something. Request denied. You\'ll notice that she\'s someone who\'s going to be a great asset to me, " Morris gave his answer to Yoona before he opened his door and escorted her outside

With the monsters eliminated, she gets closer to the others, unable to notice a monster that was hiding amongst the trees. It pounces on Quon she quickly reacts to her situation, and she casts Wave that she controlled to encircle her. It stopped the monsters from ever getting closer and before they left her spell she Freezes the entirety of the wave
"Resistance is futile!" The water forms a rounded sculpture before she finishes them with Magic orbs aimed at their heads. Their brains splatter, showering Quon who\'s incapable to escape the spells she used to counter their attacks. She turns around and calls for Airis once she depleted most of her Mana upon obliterating her foe
"Big sis Airis can you help me out of this," Quon asked for her help which she did without a second thought
\'B-Big sister? Isn\'t she a little polite? I haven\'t even known her for a long time... but isn\'t she quite daring? She must\'ve been thought by Christ, it\'s feint but I can smell his scent on her,\'
"Quon you should learn how to kill your enemies as cleanly as possible. Look at your face, it\'s covered in blood, you don\'t even know if that blood carries a disease. How about after I get you clean I\'ll teach you how to properly kill a target doesn\'t that sound fun," Quon nodded at her answer while Airis wipes away her bloody face
[Testing, Testing hello can anyone hear me? Morris what the hell are you doing it\'s on. It\'s on? Okay well, sorry about that folks. I thought we were having some technical difficulties. I\'m just here to inform everyone to stay together and don\'t even think about splitting up. You saw the outcome right? Anyway back on topic in the night, you should start a campfire every monster we generated are not a fan of light so good luck and have fun]
"Should we start a camp here?" Hugo asked the rest of them and they agreed to his idea and each of them left for their task
He tailed Esther, in the woods while he waited for the perfect time to ask her something which infuriated her. The fact that she noticed his presence before they could even leave the others. She finally loses her cool and confronted Hugo by throwing a knife at his location before she walks closer with the firewood she collected
"Sorry about that, I thought it was a monster. I\'m good at sensing living beings. The only problem is that I can\'t determine if they\'re a player or not," Esther lied about her capabilities to the point that she acted concerned about his condition
[That\'s a close one, you could\'ve died... that girl is unbelievable I can\'t even imagine that she could change a lot since we last saw her. Too bad that she already partied with that mage]
"No worries, I just want to ask something also do you need a hand with that?" Hugo looked at the amount of firewood she was carrying twice her size
"No thanks, I\'ve carried something heavier than this, it\'s not even close to a light workout"
\'Seriously!!?\'
"Do you know about the world Christ was born on? Even if you can\'t tell me, the year of his world would be enough. I just want to know. He\'s too knowledgeable about this world, the fact that he\'s able to combine a series of spells and amplify their power... there\'s no way he could pull that off if it weren\'t for countless practice, he Transmigrated here just like me," Hugo\'s persistence we\'re visible to her and instead of avoiding she answered his question before her irritation became worse
"I don\'t know what realm he came out of was called. I vaguely remember that he told me that he\'s from around the year 2030th. That\'s the only thing I know,"
Hugo stopped once he heard her reply. The year of his arrival was the same as Morris, he thought that he encountered another player from his world. But little did he know that Morris wasn\'t from his world
"What\'s wrong hey Hugo!!"
"What?" Hugo snapped away from his thoughts once she heard her loud and irritable tone from Yoona
"It\'s nothing I just have something that I was thinking about,"
"Must be a complicated thing if you stand around for 15 minutes,"
