~ Third Person POV ~

Linuel lunged forward, his sword poised straight. Jionni, who was invisible, quickly dodged to the left to avoid the incoming thrust. Gritting his teeth, Jionni cursed his problematic situation.

\'Motherfucker! Where\'s Drake? Judging from their conversation earlier, Drake isn\'t dead. Teleportation?\' Jionni made his getaway under the guise of his invisibility. Thankfully, the soldiers surrounding him were not well-versed in locating opponents who their eyes couldn\'t see.

"He got away." Linuel clicked his tongue and raised his shield arm. He buckled at the force that slammed against his shield, but wasn\'t affected much. "All men march. Show these monsters the power of the human race!"

The soldiers roared, their morale once again soaring to the sky. Eyeing the hill nearby where the gunfire came from, Linuel grinned maliciously.

"Mages, bomb that hill." Linuel pointed to the hill where the mages chanted. "Decimate it."

The soldiers marched forward, no longer dropping like flies since the gunfire had stopped once Linuel ordered them to fire upon the hill. Each footstep echoed across the forest, their boots leaving imprints on the ground.

Meanwhile, Jionni\'s retreat brought him to the forefront of the primate group, where Gong was currently lying in wait for the soldiers to pass through the area.

"Gong, I want you to delay their advance as much as possible." Jionni ordered his right-hand gorilla, to which Gong nodded. "It\'s no longer possible to use our current strategy. I\'ll have to speak to the others about this. In the meantime, delay them as long as possible."

"Roger." Gong looked behind him at the various primates, all ready to die for their master.

Smiling at their dedication, Jionni hastily made his way back to the Monster Town. Gong quickly ordered the primates to get into position.

"Gorilla tactics… Kill them all…" Gong huffed, and the primates under his command all agreed. Until the enemy surrenders, they have no leeway to capture some of their forces.

"Ack! That damn bastard!" Chip grimaced as he pulled out a giant piece of wood that pierced through his leg. Dropping a few drops of healing potion he had in reserve on the open wound, it closed shut and stopped bleeding.

"He dares make a mockery out of me and my Boss!? Nay! I say nay!" Chip grabbed his compound bow and gave his sniper rifle to a nearby primate. "All of you, head to the second vantage point. Lay waste to our enemies who dare intrude on our sacred grounds."

The five primates nodded and quickly made their way through the forest, all of them sporting a few wounds, but none fatal.

"C\'mon, Primal Shot. I think it\'s time you made your crush proud!" Chip grinned as he swung from tree to tree, his compound bow whispering sweet words into his ears as he did so.

Nearing the battlefield, he saw Gong and the primates all engaged in mortal combat, with the primates on the losing side.

The magic of the humans proved too much to handle for the primates, and with their support still relocating, it would be a matter of time before their line of defense crumpled.

Scowling, Chip readied his compound bow and knocked an arrow. Taking aim at one of their mages who was keeping the invisible barrier up for the soldiers at the front.

Once all the air was expunged from his lungs, Chip let the arrow loose.

The arrowhead flew in the air, and Chip\'s aim was straight and true. The barrier that protected them was punctured by the seemingly normal arrow.

The mages saw the arrow and were shocked by it penetrating their barrier, but it was too late.

It pierced through the head of the target mage, the corpse falling to the ground with wide eyes. Not a moment later, the arrow glowed, and Chip smiled in victory.

"Ka-boom." Chip called out as the arrow exploded, limbs and viscera raining from the sky as they drenched the surviving soldiers in their color. "Gotta thank your crush for your enchantments, eh, partner?"

Gliding his hand over the compound bow affectionately, Chip slung it over his shoulder and relocated to a new position.

On the frontlines, seeing that their barrier faltered for a moment, Gong raised a war cry and rallied the primates to charge.

Without the barrier, the primates dealt a huge blow against the enemy invaders. Heads were crushed, limbs severed, and bodies punctured; it didn\'t matter how they died, all of them died brutal deaths.

The same could be said for the primates. During their charge, some of them also got caught up in their enemies\' weapons. Whether by luck or skill, primates all died the same.

At the backlines, the surviving mages reorganized themselves, desperately ignoring the brutalized corpses of their fellow colleagues.

Chanting once again, the mages quickly erected another barrier to safeguard their frontline and reinforce their position. They didn\'t want to get hit by another sneak attack like earlier.

In the middle, Linuel praised the person or monster who was able to deal such a huge number against his army.

"I\'ll hand it to them; that shook our morale." Linuel cracked his neck and jumped to the frontline. "I think it\'s time I joined the fight."

Grinning, Linuel made a beeline towards the lead monster, who was the biggest of all of them. The monster was heavily armored from head to toe in heavy metal, the only visible parts of his body being his face.

He hefted a giant tower shield twice his size, effectively blocking any kind of attack that came his way. On his other hand, he held a war hammer that required a human to use two hands to wield it effectively.

Needless to say, without the barrier, that monster was a major problem.

"Too bad, my blade thirsts for strong opponents!" Linuel grinned madly and swung his blade as he rapidly approached the monster. Gong noticed the incoming human and moved to block it with his tower shield.

What he didn\'t expect was for the blade to cut through his shield like butter and bisect his body in one swing.

Huge amounts of blood gushed out like a dam, staining everybody in the area red, Linuel included. This, however, didn\'t impede him; instead, it made him crave blood even more.

"Yes… Yes!" Linuel cackled happily as his sword absorbed the blood splattered on its blade, its silver sheen gleaming in the light. His pupils constrict as he points his blade towards the sizeable number of primates.

"Come at me! Show me your worth!" Linuel, now in his bloodthirsty state, charged once more after going into a stance. Behind him, the soldiers who were used to his antics roared and followed behind, spears ready to pierce through the black-furred beasts.

The primates, now without their leader, flinched slightly but never faltered. Chip, who saw the death of Gong, cursed and knocked another arrow.

Aiming at the man who killed Gong, Chip let the arrow loose.

The arrow flew through the air, heading straight for Linuel\'s head, only for him to tilt his neck back slightly. It grazed his cheek, making him bleed, but that served to entertain Linuel even more.

Directing his eyes towards the direction where the arrow flew from, he saw another monster that was smaller than the big one he killed earlier.

Laughing insanely, he dashed through the chaotic battlefield towards Chip, who cursed and deposited the compound bow back inside a hammerspace.

"Shit…!" With one swing, Chip\'s head left his torso as blood painted the trees red. Smiling, Linuel quickly made his way back to the battlefield, where he would continue to go crazy by killing monsters with his blade.

"Bad news!" Jionni arrived back at the Monster Town, surprising the various leaders.

"What?" Nicholas narrowed his eyes at the Dungeon Master.

"Drake\'s gone." This shocked everybody who heard his words. "I don\'t mean dead. I mean, he was somehow teleported by their leader."

"Same shit." Nicholas growled as he smacked his hand on the table. "Drake is too stubborn to die, but without him here, it\'ll be harder to defend. What\'s the status on the frontline?"

"Bad." Jionni scowled. "Their leader is one helluva monster. I\'m not sure I can fight him without getting wounded. I can win, but not without sacrifices."

"… Then it seems it\'s come to this." Nicholas sighed as he eyed all of the monster leaders. "Are you all prepared to lay down your lives to protect your home?"

All of the monster leaders roared, their arms raised high above their heads. All around us, the monsters, humans, and demi-humans who were listening in followed suit, a deafening cry of determination echoing all around.

"Good." Nicholas turned to look back at Jionni.

"I\'ll go ask Inziz. She should know more about their leader, since she had first-hand experience with the man." Nicholas nodded, and Jionni quickly climbed the ramparts.

Up above, Mariona fiddled with the gun turret, sweat dripping from her forehead as Inziz glared at the horizon. Noticing Jionni\'s ascent, the two of them turned to look at the Dungeon Master.

"Inziz, what do you know about Linuel?"
