The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

The ability to hide his presence until the last second and the immense destructive power of his attack made the Lightning-Fall Mantis think that the attacker was a mighty Wave Champion. Nevertheless, once its perception finally revealed the assailantʼs identity, it could not believe it. The assassin was a young man with eyes bursting with red light, the same one that two days ago almost killed!

All that analysis and damage took a long time to describe, but it happened in less than a second.

”¡AHHHH!”

The Lightning-Fall Mantis screamed in pain as Cain drove his index finger forward into its chest, pushing them out of the cave.

The normal Wave Beasts were still consuming the corpses on the battlefield, and since no one dared to get near the Lightning-Fall Mantisʼs domain, only a small portion noticed the scream and saw the human and Middle Wave Champion Beast emerging from the cave.

Cain could feel how the resilience of the Lighting-Fall Mantisʼ muscles and bones grew as this one finally conjured its Wave Cloak. He could feel the beastʼs heart just a few centimeters away from the tip of his finger, but he could not push deeper.

A cold light appeared in Cainʼs eyes as he unleashed all the killing intent he was forced to suppress when he saw the Lightning-Fall Mantis devouring those soldiers. ”DIE!”

Cain shouted as he transformed all the energy in his index finger into Blood Lightning before making it explode!

”AHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The Lightning-Fall Mantis screamed with even more strength as the blast sent it crashing to the ground. The explosion generated a massive hole in its back and wounded every inner organ, including its heart!

Cain smiled when he saw the damage in the Lightning-Fall Mantis and knew this one was over. Even if it was still alive, that wound was lethal, and it would not recover from it.

However, Cainʼs smile vanished the next second. He was still in the air and could feel the thousands of fierce gazes focused on him. Now came the part that was just as hard as killing the Lightning-Fall Mantis, surviving the wrath of the thousands of Wave Beasts about to launch themselves toward him, full of killing intent. Cain knew that all the Wave Beasts knew of his presence, so he unleashed the full power of his Ego Wave. A picture of the forest appeared in his mind with all the Wave Beasts and the Wave Champion Beasts in it. ʼThe good news is that the other Wave Champion Beasts have their lairs far away from this place, most likely due to their fear of the Lightning-Fall Mantis. The bad news is that a sea of Wave Beast is in my path out of this place.ʼ

Cainʼs Ego Wave gave him a map with the position of every enemy, but that was far from enough to escape.

”ROOOAAARRRRRRR!!!”

The entirety of the horde began to roar as they trampled each other in order to reach the human. Killing intent was not the only thing in their hearts, and they could not hide their desire to eat Cain alive as they felt the bursting vitality of this one. Cainʼs eyes narrowed as he saw how the Wave Beasts looked at him, and he could imagine what would happen if they managed to trap him. The red light in his eyes grew stronger as he suppressed all his fear and worries and pushed his cognitive abilities to their absolute limit.

Dozens of Wave Beasts had already made their way to the zone where Cain was about to land and launched themselves with their maws open, wanting nothing more than devour him. Cainʼs heartbeat grew more and more potent as the beasts got closer, but he could not be calmer. There was no room for doubt, fear, or uncertainty in his mind if he wanted to survive!

The instant Cain felt the tip of his foot reach the ground, his Astral Wave and Blood Energy exploded with so much strength that it sent all the Wave Beasts near him flying away!

Killing the Wave Beasts wounded in the blast would have been easy, but Cain did not hesitate before pushing Asura Form to the limit and running away as fast as he could.

If one saw it from the sky, it would be an epic sight worthy of legends. A massive horde made of dozens of thousands of giant beasts dashing toward a young man bathed in red lighting, and how this one managed to carve a path through them using nothing but his body and mind.
