Thanks to Moss’s containment, the others managed to turn the tides quickly. He further weakened the Explosive Wolf pack’s group attack advantage.

Reaching level seven increased the power of Cullen’s Imperial Sword. In addition, the others united and became increasingly proficient in their teamwork, quickly turning the battle at the valley’s entrance around.

Cullen benefited most from this battle, killing almost every level five Explosive Wolf. He also killed two level six and one level seven Explosive Wolf.

However, Cullen was greedy and wouldn’t even let a level four Magical Beast make a getaway, even though they barely contributed to his growth. As Cullen wantonly fought, he heard a notification come from his interface. Cullen excitedly checked the notification and saw that he had reached level eight. He couldn’t help but raise his fist and cheer, “Yes! I’m a level eight Swordmaster now!”

“Congratulations, Captain Cullen! You’re truly awesome!” Bailey immediately praised when he heard that. Some of the students that Bailey influenced also started to flatter Cullen.

“You’re the strongest around, Captain Cullen!”

“Lead us to victory, Captain Cullen!”

Cullen revealed a smug expression as he heard these words. He felt omnipotent at that moment and immediately thought of pranking Moss. He wanted Moss to see what a level eight Swordmaster could do in a world that respected classes.

Cullen called Bailey and instructed, “Inform the others that we’re going on the offense and have to help Moss!” Cullen righteously spoke as if he was the world’s savior.

“You’re simply amazing, Captain Cullen. You truly are the savior of the Mystic Realm!” Bailey was thrilled when he heard Cullen’s instructions. Taking the initiative to save others was a glorious act in the teachers’ and students’ eyes. Cullen thought he might even receive a reward when it’s all said and done.

After receiving a mission from his captain, Bailey chuckled and gathered the others. Alan and Ell were in disbelief when they heard that Cullen wanted to assist Moss.

“Did I hear that correctly, Ell? Is it true that Cullen wants to help Moss?” Alan was utterly dumbfounded.

However, Ell was also startled when she heard the news. She whispered, “I don’t know what Cullen is up to, but whatever the case, it would be great if we went over to help Moss.”

Alan and Ell doubtfully followed the others toward Moss’s direction. Everyone arrived by Moss’s side in just a short while, seeing as he wasn’t far from the valley’s entrance.

Moss saw the others rushing toward him and knew they weren’t trying to escape. Instead, they were the ones chasing the Explosive Wolves this time. Cullen’s team and the others were now the pursuers.

Still, Moss was surprised that the others had come to assist him. He initially thought Alan and Ell would be the only ones willing to help. Moss never expected Cullen and the rest to come to his aid.

Similarly, the wolves under and on the tree were surprised. The Explosive Wolves were shocked when they saw that Cullen and his teammates had turned around to attack them.

The wolves hesitated to attack, but Cullen and his teammates had no intention of showing mercy. Cullen and Bailey were the most active members of the team. Cullen only wanted to show Moss the effects of his latest upgrade.

Meanwhile, Alan and Ell worried for Moss. Alan instantly jumped onto the enormous tree and stood beside Moss.

Moss felt a warmth in his heart when he saw Alan. He nodded, smiled, and then yelled, “Be careful. Some of these wolves know Wolf Howl. Getting hit by it will cause dizziness. You have to keep a safe distance from that attack.”

Alan smiled at Moss and started his onslaught.

“Alan, throw a paralyzing potion in my direction. I’ll use my shield and create a sealed area,” Moss sputtered, letting Alan in on his plan. 1

Moss planned on using his Guardian’s Shield to create a sealed area so the wolves would inhale the paralyzing cloud entirely. Then they would have an easier time killing the wolves.

Alan immediately understood what Moss was thinking. When Alan saw the new pack leader heading for Moss, he hurriedly threw a paralyzing potion as Moss instructed.

Moss had already built a sealed area when the new pack leader pounced. Then he quickly leaped out of the sealed area before the paralyzing potion and pack leader collided.

The green potion bottle exploded instantly, and a large cloud engulfed the sealed area.

Awoo!

The pack leader sensed the abnormality in his movements, but it was too late. It had already inhaled the green cloud. Then it felt a burning sensation in its nasal cavity and couldn’t help but wail violently.

The pack leader struggled with all its might and came out of the sealed area with incredible difficulty. But its movements were sluggish due to the green cloud. Its consciousness wavered, and vision became blurry.

The pack leader then heard a gust of wind appear behind it. The gust of wind was swift and urgent, carrying a tremendous power. The pack leader realized that it was in danger and sensed the powerful human’s presence.

It had no hope of dodging Moss’s impending attack, but it leaped to the side instinctively. However, Moss had already predicted the pack leader’s leap.

“Explosive Heavy Strike!” Moss’s standard sword carried an enormous power as it slashed toward the leaping pack leader.

Suddenly, a silver-gray figure jumped over, using its body as a shield against Moss’s fatal attack. But before the Explosive Wolf could sacrifice itself to save its pack leader, a golden-red flash appeared and pierced its throat. Then the Explosive Wolf fell to the ground.

Meanwhile, Moss’s deadly attack had already sliced through the pack leader’s body. Then he tightened his grip on the sword and drew a zigzag pattern onto the pack leader’s body, cutting it to pieces.

“D*mn it! The other wolf ruined my plan!”

Moss heard Cullen’s angry curses the moment he landed. He knew Cullen was upset that he couldn’t get the experience from the level seven pack leader.

Moss noticed Cullen’s disappointed expression and smiled bitterly. He thought, ‘Maybe that was fate. You don’t always get what you want.’

The other wolves seemed to have lost their will to fight at the loss of another pack leader. The battle soon ended, and Team Moss and Team Cullen emerged victoriously.

However, Moss and Cullen shared bitter gazes. Moss ignored Cullen and approached his best friend, Alan.

Alan excitedly walked forward before Moss could say anything, ignoring the blood all over Moss’s armor. A single tear rolled down Alan’s face as he said, “I’m so happy that you’re okay, Moss. What happened to you?”

Moss patted Alan’s back and comforted him, “It’s okay, Alan. It’s all in the past now.” Then he asked with concern, “How are you guys doing?”

Alan revealed a smile when he heard that. “We’re doing great! I’m already a level six Alchemist, and Ell is a level four Beast Exorcist.”

Ell had many things she wanted to say when she saw Moss, but she couldn’t utter a word when she finally saw him. She only nodded at Alan’s words.

Alan looked at Moss’s bloodstained armor and said, “You must’ve killed many Magical Beasts before we arrived, huh? You surely look like you’ve gained a few levels. Quick, what level are you?”

Moss calmly replied, “Oh, I’m a level eight Knight now.”

Alan’s jaw hit the ground. He patted Moss’s shoulder and said excitedly, “Wow! You are something else, Moss!”

After that, Alan put his arm around Moss’s shoulder and asked about what happened when they parted ways.

Meanwhile, Cullen became excited when he heard that Moss was only a level eight Knight. He knew that a level eight Swordmaster was much stronger than a level eight Knight. Moreover, a Swordmaster was great at surprise attacks. Knowing this, Cullen thought he would be the one to kill the Mystic Realm Boss.

Cullen looked at Moss’s back with a smug smile.

Suddenly, one of Cullen’s teammates asked, “Um, I have a question. Where is the Mystic Realm Boss anyway?”
