Chapter 265 - Catastrophe
As they all conversed, a sudden loud sound pierced through their ears, yet instead of them grimacing in pain, they all felt shudders travel through their bodies and spines.
"BEAST TIDE HAS BEEN SPOTTED! ALL UNITS IN PLACE!" The earth-shaking voice rang out through the entire city while sirens constantly blared.
In an instant, the once peaceful camp in front of the city walls had turned into havoc and chaos as people ran around in panic, trying to get ready for what was about to come.
"We need to move!" Xela roared to the others who had been frozen in place due to the sirens and the loud voice that announced everything that was about to happen.
"Wasn't the tide supposed to come tomorrow?" Gold shouted while Clara tried to get out as fast as possible, grabbing her wand in her hand and sprinting out of the tent at full speed.
"Yes, it was... The beasts or their king either have a good amount of intelligence to pull a plan like this or it is just a coincidence. If it is a coincidence, their troops will be disorganized and put into weak formation without any backup... However, if it is not a coincidence, their formations will be stronger than any beast tide we have ever seen. They might be weak but their amount, as well as intelligence, can easily put them in the C+ rank if not higher. That is why we need to hit them before they get too comfortable at fighting against us" Xela quickly explained while snatching whatever she could find that was useful and putting it in her dimensional ring.
"So we are either unlucky or unlucky as fuck? That makes me feel better" Throid snorted in annoyance.

"Not my fault that the tide came early! Instead of throwing all your shit at me, using it against them instead" Xela snorted back.
"Stop bickering you two and get your asses ready for the beating of our lives or their lives... Let's hope it is the latter" Gold sighed and finally took two machetes out of her dimensional ring while unsheathing the two.
"Let's show them why humans should never be underestimated" Alan smiled calmly and took out one of his katanas
"Person who gets the least kills had to do a forfeit" Throid immediately dashed out of the room with both axes on his shoulders, dual-wielding them into battle.
*sigh* an audible sigh came out of every single person's mouth as they looked at the figure that had just darted away becoming smaller and smaller.
"You heard him, ladies. Guy with the least kills dies" The man that had walked in at first also dashed away with a burst of psychotic laughter, causing everyone else to knit their brows and also dash away with their respective weapons.

Back in Lagua city was the sitting figure of a red-haired woman who lifted her feet off the ground and laid them crossed on the table with a relaxed moan.
*ZIIIING* The sound of a vibrational sound entered her ears causing her to perk up and crag the crystal ball which was right next to her feet by using a string of crimson energy to wrap around it and force it into her hand.
"Guildmaster!" A voice of a man came from the other side of the crystal, causing Rose to knit her brows after hearing the constant sounds of metal clashing and screams of terror. While the majority of the screams were not human screams, she still could not help but feel a little worried after remembering where she had told me to go, and where the call was coming from.
"What is it?" She asked with a cold tone of voice
"Guildmaster! This is a disaster! The beast tide has come 2 days too early! We need backup asap!" The man shouted.
"What is the situation" She had immediately comprehended what was just said and had already calculated many ways how to solve the problem, or at least how to delay it until the stronger groups of people are able to get there.
"Havoc! There is no alignment amongst the humans! They are running everywhere and doing nothing right! The beasts on the other hand are fully coordinated as well as have formations that would cause even the best of Grand Knights to fail against them. We need help. PLEASE GUILDMA- AHHHHHHHH---" The call immediately cut off, simultaneously cutting off the scream of the man on the other side who seemed to have just gotten seriously injured, if not killed.
"DAMNIT!" Rose slammed her fist on the table, causing wide cracks to not only spread through the table but throughout the whole building. The cracks only finished spreading after a white light covered them and slowly began to repair them back to their normal state.

In a forest, hundreds of kilometers away from Lagua city were their lights traveled throughout the forest, almost like fireflies lighting up the place with their radiance.
These were of course me, June, and Olivia, but right now we were moving at a speed where the only thing left from us was a blur and the trail of our aura, giving us lights as if we were all divine beings that spread their radiance amongst these mortals. In reality, I was the only one doing that while the rest decided to copy me as if having a light around them would make them faster.
Right now the only thing I could do with my battle intent was simply shrouding myself with it and moving around with an improved physique and speed. The other two for some reason thought they could do the same thing as me, and so when they tried it, all they got was a light show that showed the world where they were.
If it was not for my divine pressure, we would have been attacked by multiple beasts by now
